mrzne a všade kam vidieť je obloha sivá, bielo sivá no prostě hustě to vyzerá by som sa aj stratil niekam (alebo si aspoň odostrel žalúzie) lenže musím ísť do práce
Baví mě komentáře od lidí na #Youtube, kteří mají nutkání "odhalovat" neoznačená AI videa, jako např. cestovatelku časem na různá historická místa. Jinak by se díky realistické kvalitě opravdu nedalo poznat, že to není realita 😝
BTW jsem pro zákon označovat všechen AI obsah, jinak bude během několika let (nejen) Youtube skoro nepoužitelný, nebude se dát filtrovat. A vše bude růst exponenciálně: porostou nároky na energii, poroste množství podvodů a lží, bude se melancholicky vzpomínat na dobu před AI. V rukou mentálně nedospělých lidí je AI zlo.
@sesivany To bych uvítal. Ale mám obavy, že i kdyby se tak stalo, tak stejně zbyde míň kvalitní a levnější AI, po kterém tvůrci sáhnou a tomu přehlcení online prostoru se společnost nevyhne. Proto už by dnes měla být zákonná povinnost označování AI obsahu, jinak se nebude dát vyfiltrovat při hledání.
Our In-Process blog is back for 2026! And we've got a bumper issue to start with:
We highlight the "Switching from Jaws to NVDA" guide, we have tips for running NVDA on a Mac and creating a new NVDA Shortcut. We hear from a user on their achievements in 2025, and we want to hear yours! And finally, a quick tipe from @JenMsft here on Mastodon on Using Clip with the command line!
Hi very good in prossess. I think manually creating a shortcut for nvda has got some disadvantages in comparison to the one that the installer creates. For example the manual shortcut won't restart nvda. It will only start nvda if it is not running at all.
@nikosdemetriou I vaguely recall something about the shortcut from a number of years ago, but I just checked with NVDA 2025.3.2 and the shortcut as created with the instructions in In-Process will restart NVDA - of course it is easier to check the box and let the installer create the shortcut, but sometimes that doesn't happen, or the shortcut gets deleted etc.
So tell me, how do you feel about TikTok in the US now opening ways for systems like Palantir and others that "assist" ICE to get access to your user data? Allowing the US to do what they accused China to do – surveillance – when avoiding exactly that was the original stated reason for the whole fight?
Krásné dobré ráno mastodonní lidečkové! 🙋♀️🐈🐶 Včera mi došel balík z antikvariátu! Jucheeeej! Nudit se nebudu. Tak copak já si vyberu jako první? Lord Archibald má úplně stejnou radost. On dostal krabici. Teď na ní pilně pracuje. Sir Artur takovou radost nemá. Původně se do té krabice uhnízdil. Byl surově vytřepán a teď se vztekle z opěradla gauče dívá, jak z krabice odletují ohryzané kusy. Myslím že si ho budu muset udobřit nějakou dobrůtkou. V koupelně probíhá hádka. Obě Dcery národa odjíždějí do města. Obě chtějí k umyvadlu. Hned. K zrcadlu. Hned. Možná si půjdu pro židli a sednu si ke dveřím. Spor se přiostřuje. Chtějí rozsoudit. Židle nebude. Prchám. Vy se každému sporu dnes vyhněte a udržujte si hladinu zdravého humoru. 😊 #dobre_rano #dobréRáno
Friendly reminder that Mastodon, et al is federated, which means you almost certainly won't see every reply on a thread.
Let's say you're reading a post from "reasonable.domain". And someone from "cesspool.domain" replies to it. If your instance blocked "cesspool.domain", you won't see that reply.
This effect minimizes the appearance of harm. It can be a blessing, but it also means you won't always see the problems inherent on these platforms.
Give it to a popular speech synthesis engine, ETI Eloquence, or Eloquence TextToSpeech on Android, to not mispronounce stuff when they are incorrectly spelled. Strategy...being the word in reference. Eloquence says it correctly even if people type Stratogy. eSpeak immediately says something I can't even make other synthesizers replicate. The place where I most often see this horrible mistake is on forum.audiogames.net, but I don't go on about it there, because it's not the user's fault that the speech engine they use does not alert them to the mistake. I do read braille, mostly to help me with my work, as most of the folks CVs I have to process, have African names, and speech, no matter which synthesis engine, break African names royally. Just...fix Stratogy on eloquence so it actually pronounces it wrong...then that illusive E in the middle will replace the incorrect O.
@Bri It's often encountered in discussions about SoundRTS, or similar realtime strategy games. I don't scroll in the agnet forum too often, because of workload, but saw stratogy pop-up again yesterday evening while checking for new releases. I can't remember which topic exactly now, else I might have posted so you could see what I am squektalking about.

The "6-7" thing is obviously annoying, but also reassuring that kids' online lives are mainly just silly nonsense. It's not all Andrew Tate and anxiety.
Liebes Fediverse! Ich hatte im schulischen Rahmen schon mehrfach Zeitzeugen zu Gast: Holocaustüberlebende, politisch Verfolgte aus der ehem. DDR, usw.
Nun suche in Kontakt zu Menschen, deren Eltern(-teil) Täter*innen zB. in der Nazi-Tötungsmaschinierie war(en) UND die sich kritisch damit und mit der damit verbundenen Familiengeschichte auseinandergesetzt haben.
Habt Ihr mir da Namen oder Tipps, wen ich da anfragen könnte? Gerne mal boosten! Und: Danke vorab dafür!
Ok there is a new rss reader featured in a podcast spessifically double tap. A github link is given in the description which doesn't work any more. Google doesn't find anything only the podcast. So what's the point of an application disappearing soon after it is featured in a podcast? github.com/brandonbracey/blind…
I know I use AI a whole lot lately, but people are vastly over-estimating the capabilities of it and thus using it for all kinds of things they shouldn't! One giant example is that hardly anybody writes anything themselves anymore. Look, being well-written used to be something to be proud of. Now, I beg anyone and everyone to just write things yourselves! I'd almost go so far as to say, the less well-written whatever it may be is as long as it's still getting the intended message across, the better! At least it won't be full of false positivity, more emojis than the Apple Keyboard and more lists than...A person who loves lists! Very Sincerely: someone who is quite saddened by both companies and individuals making writing so much more boring!
Oh just so many articles I've ran across that were obviously at least partially written with AI. Sometimes it is hard to tell in parts, so I'm always questioning it, which is what I think the real cause of the annoyance of myself and some others I've seen on here is they're always questioning what they're reading.
I have no words for what vispero just sent all of it's customers, except to say that it is absolute and complete rubbish. It wasn't parcially written by AI it was an AI generated post. No wonder why the product or products are going downhill.
I don't make that leap. I'm sure the person who was responsible for publishing that crap post is not the same person(s) responsible for manufacturing the products.
I don't mean to be blunt, and ask your pardon, but if the most important part of the company, the marketing which generates sales and the sales department, is being tossed at AI, why wouldn't the less important parts which can be ignored in most cases be filled with AI as well? Developement isn't that important compared to sales. Jaws is more or less done at this point, new features are either too far a reach or require ideas which people don't have. The same may be said of magnification generally, right? Why not dump everyone who knows what's going on and milk it for all you can?
One of the coolest things for Rhythm Heaven fans, Heaven Studio, now has a mod to make it screen reader accessible! I've been having such a blast playing this thing! If anyone would like to snag Heaven Studio, and/or the mod, links will be below. Heaven Studio Revival Project: drive.google.com/file/d/1FKeKx… Accessibility Mod (click on download on the page): chikutaku-luyi.itch.io/rhsamod After downloading the mod, you should see a Heaven Studio folder. Go into that, then there should be things like MellonLoader, and other items. Select all, then paste them into the root of your Heaven Studio folder, then load Heaven Studio.exe, and enjoy!
One thing I forgot to mention, controls in case anyone's stuck. Use W, A, S, and D to move around in menues. Use K to go forward, and J to go back. While in the level menu, press I to cycle between a menu with settings, import ETC, and the built-in levels. Press escape to pause. Hope this helps!
Having to step back when you don't want to is one of the hardest things you can do, but if it's necessary sometimes what you want to do and what needs to happen are two different things. Doing the needed but harder thing shows strength. It sucks, I know, but also understand that it's not the end of the world. Things will improve.
We're excited to announce the release of Gitea 1.25.4! We strongly recommend all users upgrade to this version, as it includes important security fixes, numerous bug fixes, and overall stability improvements.
You can't imagine how much I'm looking forward to the weekend. Saturday I can just sit and do nothing other than my private shit, and sunday I'll have food at my grandma and gonna binge watch Stranger Things 5, yup haven't done that yet.
Mal wieder so ins Blaue gefragt; wie lange braucht ihr Morgens bis ihr die Türklinke zur Arbeit in die Hand nehmt oder euch den HO Stuhl zurechtrückt? Wie immer mind 1000 Replies! (Ich weiss ihr schafft das!)
i just love that we are all beholden to a company that when i was a kid we joked called its major product Windows because that's what you should throw it through
@FreakyFwoof I was messing around with Trinity and specifically the combi modes and I got to wondering, what other libraries have this feature or something like it? it doesn't even have to be korg but I love these combinations.
Well, Korg Triton and Triton Extreme do, in much greater detail. I suggest picking up Triton Extreme. Also Korg WaveState. If you check back on my channel under the 'Is This Thing On?' Playlist, I demo Triton Extreme and WaveState in one video. Those will impress you.
I’m listening to your demo of Trident extreme now and I’m loving it, haven’t got to wave state yet. The only sounds I hate are the ones with the drum beat backing.
I don't. They are some of the best. You play a thing, keep a tempo and play over it. What's wrong with that? Like having your own almost AI band in a box.
Listening a bit further, I’m actually starting to come around. I think because I’ve played with other libraries that don’t do it nearly as well as korg. This library is fucking tremendous!
When you get to the WaveState plugin, they focus even harder on rhythmic backings and take it to a whole other level. I mean it's a 12 or so year newer plugin. It is absolutely wild.

Today marks 7 months of unemployment and I am very much down to the wire.
I am a full-stack & backend web developer, fluent in TypeScript, with experience building data-focused applications and both SQLite and Postrges databases.
I’m located in the northeast United States and have experience working and successfully collaborating with small, remote teams.
MAGA: Conquest: We nede Greenland to protect our national interests so we'll just take it. Progressives: Alliance-building and collaboration: We need Greenland to be on our side to help us meet our national goals, so we'll work closely with them in a mutually-beneficial relationship. The choice here is quite clear my friends.
So I've tried the brand-new blindness Windows apps #FastSM and #BlindRSS and I have to say that I'm highly impressed with both! If you haven't checked them out yet I highly recommend giving them a try. Both represent elegant yet simple solutions to Blue Sky, Mastodon and podcast and text RSS feeds. #accessibility
new, experimental build of SpeechPlayer. I would like those who are brave to test, for a new, more Eloquence-like sound. Shoutout does go out to @fastfinge for helping to get this idea going and colaborating on the repository. eurpod.com/synths/nvSpeechPlay… The big switch is that it is no longer a sawtooth wave. Instead, it now uses asymmetric cosine glottal-flow pulse (a pitch-synchronous "glottal pulse train"). So, glottal flow pulses, not continuous oscillator shapes like triangle/saw/square. This has allowed us to achieve a much smoother voice, with clearer consonants but the familiarity of the voice people know.
@fireborn I mean, it's meant to preserve the characteristics of the voice mostly, so that changes are incremental, but it does add a bit of smoothness - and the Benjamin voice finally sounds better. Going incrementally at these, this tuning was really just on the wave generator and not the speech itself that it interpolates. Consonants do sound a little sharper which is nice in it, but people are super sensitive to the smallest of sound changes, so I'd rather more people not notice much of a change or be happy with it still than go "oh no this is sounding like the ESpeak version!" which is what people hated about it in the firstplace.
Pondering the absurdity of living in a vast swath of frigid air. Heating a medium sized box of that air to livable temperature. Then cooling a small sized box of air inside the medium box back to cool temperatures, plus an even smaller box for frigid temperatures again.
Yeah. 1997 was a very interesting year for me. That's when I got online for the first time, at least on the modern at the time internet, had played with BBS's and stuff before that, when computing was actually exciting, radio wasn't stupid yet, the world stage wasn't quite so fucked up, amateur radio was more fun...
yeah I'd have to go back just to 2006, for the whole new internet of my own, that I could do stuff on confidently, and honestly I don't really really, wanna go back to 2006.
there certainly some desicions around then that I'd certainly do differently, an x would've never been a thing, well he'd've been a thing, but the things that made it develop wouldn't've, and yeah, I'd almost like to not have that.
