@tritol128 To jo. To nacpu cokoli kamkoli. Ale zrovna Arch je pro ni asi nevhodnej. Tohle je jednoduchy, na Debianu, coz mi prijde dobry a jednoduchy...vybral jsem rozsireny distro s velkou zakladnou/podporou, ktery ji nevyplasi. ;)
Today's project: figuring out the legistics of having the SFP wall jack for the fiber ISP moved to the other side of the house. When I had it installed where it is in late 2017, it made sense to put it there. Now, not so much.
Eh, ok? So FastSM does the same thing as Mona which is mentioning the booster when I reply to a boosted post. Not sure how I like that, can we make that optional maybe? @FastSM
Yes, sorry about that. The server has been under heavy load the past few days due to thousands of bots trying to scrape the website, leading to increased timeouts.
It's bad timing, as this latest wave has coincided with the XMPP summit and FOSDEM in Brussels this week. But we're working on finding a solution!
Our FOSDEM Hackathon begins! Couldn't make it? Joins us at 17:00 CET on YouTube for a Matrix Live, actually Live from Brussels, and discover what attendees created or struggled with!

@Tutanota Hey! Ich hab eine kleine Frage wie das bei Euch mit importierten E-Mails läuft.
Folgendes: Ich bin seit ca. einem Jahr auf dem Legend-Plan.
Da mein Speicherverbrauch aber immer nur zwischen 200 und 300MB oszilliert, hatte ich überlegt, auf Revolutionary downzugraden.
Ich hab gesehen, dass z.B. beim Switch auf einen Free-Plan auch alle importierten Mails aus dem Postfach gelöscht werden. Würde das beim Wechsel auf Revolutionary auch passieren? Da gibt's den Import ja (noch) nicht.
It seems like the era of DNS-based adblocking is over.
All the streaming & video sites work around or punitively block it. Recipe and news sites do the same. And because it was always a side channel, there’s no escalation for DNS-based systems to get on top again. The information is no longer being provided by the use of specific domains anymore (or their being null routed is easily detected).
This means active browser Adblocking is basically the only pub left in town.
This means commercial app environments like on phones and TVs are getting pretty hard to avoid ads in.
@BorrisInABox Is there any change or news that I've missed? I'm using DNS add blocking and it works relatively all right, for example I can block most of the adds I get in apps or games on Android etc.
Yesterday, I got a Korg Monotron Delay. If anything can be said to be a synth fidget toy, that might be it, or at least a good start.
Gotta say, though, it's really, really noisy, which might actually be by design, at least in part, and very unshielded. It was picking up a bunch of digital hash from something which came and went as I moved it around. Turns out, it was my Airpods Pro.
I created an account while on VPN and was told they needed to manually approve my account because people try to abuse their system using VPN.
Totally understand that. I was patient. Days later they denied me. Not with a notification, but by simply closing the account. Never even got to use it.
Hey! We're sorry this happened. Please contact us at hello@tutao.de so we can look into this and manually approve the account. Sometimes this is necessary as we do not ask for phone numbers when signing up to protect your privacy.
Krásné dobré ráno mastodonní bando! 🙋♀️🐈🐶 A jsem zpět mezi zdravými. V pondělí se vracím do pracovního procesu. Zatím ke mně proudily zprávy z bojiště a fakt se tam netěším. Sněhu trochu napadlo, takže díky všem dodavatelům. Největší radost má Archibaldík. Miluje sníh. Rochní se v něm, hrabe, nasává. Nejraději má sněhové koule. Akorát teda ty mrchy po dopadu vždycky někam zmizí. Takže pokud si nezapamatuje místo dopadu, hrabe s vervou na úplně jiném místě. Zítra zase vyrazíme. Tentokrát za mnou kšírky nadarmo tahat nebude. Vy si naplánujte taky na víkend něco hodně příjemného, ať se máte na co těšit. #dobre_rano #dobréRáno
Why the developers of this Mac specific tool decided to put their documentation into an epub file when as it is currently there is no great way to read these efficiently on Mac is beyond me.
Yesterday I introduced a lady to the Paperback app. She works in local government and receives a huge number of PDF's every week. She was thrilled with it. paperback.dev/downloads/
I really, really wish this app were available for Mac. I've got an epub file here that I keep needing to refer to quite a bit and as it is now, I have to NVDA Remote into a Windows machine if I want to even remotely efficiently read the content. Ah well. One can dream.
Are you ready for a party? How about a Side Party? What? Well, SideParty version 0.82 is now released! What's new? Well, feast your eyes, hands, nose, and/or ears on this!
Add a new difficulty level, simply called, Nope! Figure this one out for yourselves! Muhahahaha!
In addition to this, upgrade to a vastly improved touch include from Aryan (@Aryan) which dramatically improves the gameplay on Android. Finally, add the ability to record your game sessions, thanks to NVGT's new soundsystem! Also, the usual bugfixes and junk. masonasons.itch.io/sideparty
Že já káča nejela na 🚲 včera. To jsem byla líná madame co má každoměsíční návštěvu 🔴, a dnes opět po týdnu rýma. Už mě to ... Ani na ten rotoped se mi necé.. A co vy cyklisti? Jdete do toho i s rýmičkou? 🚲😀
MoltWorker seems interesting too. I don't think I'll run it with them, but it just made me even more interested in moltbot. This weekend I needa get my ass up and deploy it.
@FastSM One more suggestion. Currently if we press Enter on a post, FastSM will trigger the View post context menu. But, IMO, it would be better to dedicate another keyboard shortcut, like ALT+V, to it. The Enter key, instead, could open the URL in the post if it's the only URL. If several URLs exist, FastSM should display them in a list. As things stand right now, with FastSM viewing posts is easier than accessing/ opening links.
Ableton, if I do any. Used to use audacity but accessibility got worse, they're working on it though and I guess for very basic and quick stuff it can be enough, nothing crazy though. The typical audio blindie would probably say Reaper, but I haven't seen any Reaper tutorial that would speak to me personally, yes I know about Reaper access and all that stuff, so it's just too overwhelming and big for me. Goldwave is also there, and I guess a decent option, as I said I barely edit any audio currently though so....
A Blind Logic Pro teaching other blind musicians, producers, and mixers how to use Apple's DAW, Logic like a Pro! Click to read The Blind Logic Pro, by LogicBand, a Substack publication with hundreds of subscribers.
I haven’t played with this because I’m turned off of it since I don’t have keyboard maestro. Is it better than the keyboard commands file that they provide? Or does it work in tandem with that?
What is the best way using NVDA to copy multi-line URLS, 3+ lines are more, using NVDA and the terminal? E.G. codex login on a Linux box that doesn't have a GUI browser.
Speech history speech recording, e.g. shift+NVDA+F11 to start, then do whatever produces the text to be spoken, shift+NVDA+F12, and you have it on your clipboard.
AI is making it dramatically easier to contribute to Open Source, but it is not making life easier for the small group of maintainers who still carry the responsibility for deciding what is good, safe, and worth merging.
We've built our own text-to-speech system with an initial English language model we trained ourselves with fully open source data. It will be added to our App Store soon and then included in GrapheneOS as a default enabled TTS backend once some more improvements are made to it.
We're going to build our own speech-to-text implementation to go along with this too. We're starting with an English model for both but we can add other languages which have high quality training data available. English and Mandarin have by far the most training data available.
Existing implementations of text-to-speech and speech-to-text didn't meet our functionality or usability requirements. We want at least very high quality, low latency and robust implementations of both for English included in the OS. It will help make GrapheneOS more accessible.
Our full time developer working on this already built their own Transcribro app for on-device speech-to-text available in the Accrescent app store. For GrapheneOS itself, we want actual open source implementations of these features rather than OpenAI's phony open source though.
Whisper is actually closed source. Open weights is another way of saying permissively licensed closed source. Our implementation of both text-to-speech and speech-to-text will be actual open source which means people can actually fork it and add/change/remove training data, etc.
FUTO Keyboard is a modern, privacy-focused keyboard that runs fully offline. Enjoy swipe typing, autocorrect, predictive text, and more—no internet connection required.
@Bernard We started working on this because Sherpa didn't meet our requirements including overly high latency making it unsuitable for blind users to use with TalkBack.
@tchambers It's not really platform specific. It currently runs on the CPU but we plan to add TPU support for Tensor and NPU support for Snapdragon in the future. It's made for GrapheneOS and we're not interested in doing any significant work on use outside of GrapheneOS. It will be possible to install it from our App Store on other Android 16+ operating systems but it's not our focus. We're focused on making GrapheneOS better and haven't gotten much out of making stuff available elsewhere.
Well, some times ago, open-source TTS was pretty lacking, but now Kaldi / Sherpa is pretty good, did you check it? If yes, what was the problem with it?
@breizh It wasn't quite good enough and has very high latency which makes it unsuitable for use with TalkBack. We're making this because existing options including Sherpa don't meet our requirements. Otherwise, we could have forked those. It made more sense to make our own instead which we'll be able to continue improving long term. It's similar to our network location and geocoding implementations where we want things done a particular way focused on high quality in all areas we care about.
@GrapheneOS I'm interested in having working open-source #TTS for Slovak language in the future. I my-self am not proficient enough to create my own high quality engine but I think I still might be helpfull. During all these years I've been contributing to eSpeak-ng slovak language support and recently with friends @ondrosik and @Zvonimir Stanecic we are contributing to #RHVoice. Thus I will be watching the development of your TTS engine to find out if it can be trained using a homelab setup and if adding support for the language is something I might be able to help with. Thank you for this news and all the hard work you've put into it.
@moshimotsu We have a bunch of donations options including local bank transfers with very low fees via Wise or sending money via Wise itself which has no fee if it's a matching currency. We already have a lot of options and adding more results in higher costs for managing it and handling accounting. We have to spend a huge amount of money on accounting and also auditing. The more complex the finances, the more money we'll need to spend on that. Why not use bank transfers or Wise?
@moshimotsu GitHub Sponsors provides credit card donations with 0% fees for donations from individuals which isn't something we can get elsewhere. The fees elsewhere are often over 5% when currency conversion is taken into account. We don't want to move more of the donations to high fee platforms. We have PayPal as a donation method but our donate page tries to make sure people understand the high fees and that it's better to donate another way such as GitHub Sponsors, Wise or bank transfers.
@moshimotsu LiberaPay isn't used much based on en.liberapay.com/explore/recip…. GrapheneOS likely receives more monthly donations than the total amount going through LiberaPay based on past numbers they've given on the total going through it. We were setting up Open Collective at one point prior to having our non-profit but ended up just using our own non-profit instead of needing a fiscal host to handle it. We're on Benevity already because some people can only donate through that but we prefer Wise.

Oh quirky and learned Mastodonians, I come before you with a dream. Funded by the Canada Counsel for the Arts, I’m researching Friedrich Dulon and Maria Theresia Von Paradis, both 18th century European musicians renowned in their time, and both Blind. I’m looking for info about a German translator and writer of the time, Pfeffel, who was also Blind. I’d love to find some of his fables in English. Dulon met and admired him, and Leopold Kozeluch created a secular cantata for Maria Theresia von Paradis, setting Pfeffel's German text ("Ich war ein kleines Würmchen") to music. If anyone who likes digging and is multi-lingual could uncover this piece of music or his fables in any form accessible to an English speaker, I’d love to be able to incorporate it into story writing, storytelling, or even singing. As a Blind person myself I'm really interested in bringing their work to life for a modern audience, but I'm mono-lingual, and a terrible researcher. Please boost for reach.
Just received the document checklist for my immigration process, along with a myriad of questions for me, my husband, and the two of us together. One of the questions is asking for photos of our wedding celebrations... a minimum of 20 photos, all put in a Word doc. In addition, we're supposed to put some information *in* the photos... I have absolutely no clue how to do this. Talk about a freaking nightmare. I knew it was going to be, but just how much of one, I had no clue. I'm just... so overwhelmed right now. I'm hoping our consultant will be able to help us with some of this. It'd be sooooooo nice to just answer all these questions over the phone and have somebody else put in all the relevant information.
On Tuesday night, I successfully defended my #PhD thesis on #dataset #documentation as a leverage point for better speech technologies at #ANU #Cybernetics! 🎉
I have some minor corrections and then I will officially be a #PhD. It's been a long six years!
Přátelé, dobré ráno. Dnes naposledy v práci, tedy v mafiánské Bille. Popravdě, když už to takhle dopadlo, uvědomuji si, že mi to tady nebude chybět. Mafiánské chování těch čtyř mi opravdu chybět nebude. Ale zase nekteří lidé ani. Tak šup, rychle do posledního dne. Jo a byli v mé skřínce, co tam hledali ví Bůh.
