I'm proud to release the first early version of the high-level audio engine I've been working on for the past months!
GraphAudio.Kit is a high level 3d audio game engine for your dotnet, using SteamAudio for great hrtf! Very understandable and hackable. It's built on top of GraphAudio, which is a set of libraries I made that let you create your own audio engines by giving you a graph-based audio framework, webaudio for your dotnet basically! Please take a look, and tell your friends.

Well it would appear that I’m going to be embarking on a crash course in learning the ins and outs of #NVDA in a big hurry. #JAWS is initiating some hocus pocus that I’m not the least bit happy with. They are going to start requiring all of us who use JAWS to create accounts and sign in. JAWS is not Microsoft 365. It’s a screenreader, not a suite of programs. What would be the purpose of requiring this? I’m just not comfortable with this, so it looks like I’m going to stop using the screenreader I’ve been using for 20 plus years. I’m told that #NVDA is as robust as JAWS, I most certainly hope so. I’m disappointed that there aren’t more options out there. For not the first time over the years, I’m finding myself missing good old WindowEyes. #A11Y

Hi everyone! Firstly, for those new to NVDA, Welcome! And you might find this page on Switching from Jaws to NVDA useful: github.com/nvaccess/nvda/wiki/… - if you hit anything not covered there, please ask.

We also have our user guide and quick start guide here: download.nvaccess.org/document…

And if you'd like to go more in-depth, we have (paid) training material here: nvaccess.org/shop

Re account, no we don't have any intention of going in that direction. NVDA is completely offline at least in that regard (you need to be online to access the add-on store or use NVDA Remote, but for most features it doesn't need internet access) - any "online" content you read in your web browser etc with NVDA is the content that browser or other program has already downloaded to process and display.

I'm writing something (I'll post it once it's finished) and just realized that I used the word "present" twice in the same sentence, and the word has multiple meanings, some of which are distinguishable when spoken aloud, depending on which syllable is accented. And I wasn't even trying to make a pun or anything like that, but I think I'll keep the sentence as-is; I'm not sure how I'd re-word it anyhow. English is weird.

příjmy z YT jsou dost overrated. Podle mě si na smysluplné peníze sáhne <1% autorů. Petr Šimáček mi říkal, že má sice tisíce zhlédnutí, ale reálně jsou z toho desítky korun měsíčně. Takový Gardiner Bryant má na YT 130 tisíc sledujících a má z toho 200 dolarů měsíčně. Začal publikovat i na PeerTube, vyzval lidi, jestli by mu nepomohli nahradit příjem z reklam na YT, a už je na 180 dolarech a to při pouhých 1600 sledujících. YT je vlastně dost mizerná platforma z pohledu poměru příjmů/diváci.
Takže peníze bych ani neřešil. Oni spíš řeší počet diváků a jestli se otravovat s novou platformou, která jim přinese třeba 10 % diváků, co YouTube. Škoda, že nefunguje spolehlivě to automatické zrcadlení z YT, to by byl pro ně dobrý argument. Pak by mohli být na PeerTube, aniž by s tím měli práci navíc.

Vhsky.cz jsou česká instance, zajímá nás primárně český obsah, i když tam máme i zajímavý obsah v angličtině federovaný z jiných instancí.
Nicméně nebavím se o českém webu, bavím se o Youtube obecně. Jinde mají úplně stejný problém: 99 % tvůrců dostává od Googlu za obsah na Youtube úplný pakatel, takže těch, kteří můžou zvážit i jinou platformu, protože to na ně nemá žádný finanční dopad, je pořád hodně.
Jak jsem psal, problém podle mě nejsou prachy, ale určitý mentální blok z toho jednoduchého monopolního světa, kdy se videa prostě dávají jen na YT, vystoupit.

S tímto souvisí i to, že videa na Peertube nejsou vůbec indexovaná vyhledávači. Moje přednášky z OpenAltu nahrané na YT jsou pěkně dohledatelné. Google ve výsledcích videa nezobrazuje nic mimo YT. A i DDG/Bing tam mají z 95 % jen YT. Tohle hodně smrdí zneužíváním dominantního postavení na trhu.

tohle bych očekával, že bude spíš jejich index. Obecně se snaží brát i nemainstreamove zdroje (mají i kategorii small web).

Jednak mají vlastní index, jednak berou data ze všech hlavních vyhledávačů a pak i z různých okrajových zdrojů a výsledek je pak kompilace tohohle všeho.

poměr sledujících je i u toho Gardinera pořád skoro 100:1. Zajímavé na tom bylo to, že i ta setina sledujících dokázala na příspěvcích už prakticky vyrovnat příjem, který má od Googlu.
Pro samotný příjem podle dosahu by to nemusel být problém. Ti lidi budou samozřejmě dál publikovat na YT, PT by pro ně byl navíc. Nevím ale, jak ty kontrakty v praxi fungují. Jestli třeba platí za počet zhlédnutí videa, kde byla jejich reklama, tak čísla z YT můžou brát jako věrohodná, zatímco ta z neznámé PT instance ne.
Ale to hodně přebíháme. Podle mě nemá aktuálně smysl cílit na lidi, kteří z toho mají nějaký zajímavý příjem. Na YT jsou tisíce autorů, kteří z toho nemají nic a dělají videa, protože se chtějí o něco podělit. Pokud jejich témata mají cílovku ve Fediverse jako u toho Gardinera, může to mít pro ně smysl.

Moin Mastodon,
Ich bin #neuhier , #Psychologe notorisch neugierig, begeistert von #wissenschaft und schreibe in diesem Bereich auch einen Blog. Davon abgesehen bin ich, einfach nur eine Person mit Gedanken und Meinungen im Internet, die keine Ahnung hat, wie man einen guten ersten Post verfasst und daher unbeholfen in die weiten des Internets trötet.

If AI/LLMs are cut off from stolen human labour, their outputs turn to meaningless gibberish due to model collapse.

If AI/LLM owners are forced to pay for human labour instead of stealing it, they go bankrupt.

If AI/LLM data centres are forced to stay within energy consumption levels compatible with fighting climate change, they have to close down the overwhelming majority of their capacity.

AI/LLMs are just not sustainable, they can only function through labour theft and burning the planet. They're not so much new technology as a new type of ponzi scheme.

@BorrisInABox The more I use Android, the more I hate the ephemeral nature of apps on iOS. I wonder if something has ever existed for Android--because if it has, especially if it's existed as a 64-bit app, it probably still works. And that would probably be my answer. Data SIMs are cheap, budget Android devices are cheap.
I still want an ARM Windows device the size of a smartphone, but I don't think that's happening.

The Linux circlejerk has a "Great Man/Company theory" problem.

Every time there is an issue, they all go around clinging to the one company that "finally" will put some resources into fixing them. Endlessly hyping them up and elevating them to a deity status.

It happened with Canonical in the past and how it was "single handedly fixing GNOME".

More recently its Valve and how "they have graced us with gaming and fixing Wayland"

Like sure I appreciate everyone, but its a team effort you know.

I wouldn't call GTK/libadwaita easier. GTK is the only toolkit I have significant experience with, so I have no point of comparison. That said, I do like GTK, because you can easily style with CSS, similarly to a website.

For Bottles, I didn't decide the library; I was not involved in Bottles development during that time. That was decided by Mirko, the mastermind behind it. I presume he did it for the aesthetics and good Python bindings.

probably they will be one of the first email clients to support it, how cool is that?

I don’t want to question that they care about the Platform.
I just don’t see they understand it.
Focusing only on integrating $whatever into backstage is not the right thing to do. I think the article says that, too.
And having a bit of understanding about statistics would be helpful. Not sure if this is a general problem, I see this also in engineering, but normally engineers seem more open to learn.
Sigh, sry for my half kind of a rant. 😊

Hi everyone!
We are glad you are excited for the quote posts! They will come eventually but right now we (and I mean mostly Conny) are in the process of rewriting the timeline to be able to accommodate for quotes, it might take some time. We are only a few people who do this in our free time. We can't give you a time estimate but of course we also want it out as soon as possible. Stay tuned!
