So thanks to @rmader@mastodon.social we managed to get the front camera in the Pixel 3a working with a libcamera/pipewire stack 🥳 Thanks to @flamingradian for the work on the whole port!
EDIT: The driver does not properly release the camera when closing the app, so it only works once per boot. It would be lovely if anybody with the skills would like to contribute to improve it!

Подкаст, в котором мы записывались на прошлой неделе и с которым потом было так много странных историй, всё же выложен в архив вместе с кратким резюме.
Мы с @Destranis были очень рады рассказать незрячим венграм о новом синтезаторе речи, с которыми в Венгрии прям беда и грусть.

GNOME Calendar users, rejoice!
After 7 months of pain and suffering, we finally reworked the event details popover, which will be available in GNOME 47!
The new event details popover builds on top of the existing UI/code, while adding a few improvements and behavioral changes:
- The popover displays the
changes-prevent
(lock) icon when the event is read-only. - Each section is properly separated with separators, with equal amount of margins.
- Location and Meetings section are mutually exclusive; only one is shown.
- When an event has no event note, the popover will always explicitly display that there's no event description.
- The action button adapts its icon and tooltip text depending on the event permission.

This post was a bit surprising: Mozilla's ad tracking feature is part of an "origin trial", which means the new API is only exposed to websites on an allow list. Currently that list is empty, so the it doesn't do anything even if you've left the feature enabled.
They generated all that bad publicity, and the feature isn't even collecting any data yet.

I'm a big fan of LibreElec, have a RPi4 running it for my TV. But it's very much Kodi and no other apps. Nothing for viewing PDFs, no browser, no messaging, just Kodi. Which is generally fine! But this hack-a-TV can do all of those other things, and has more CPU grunt for it.
The model is end-to-end, and this variant is based on ConvNeXtTTS architecture.
Noticeably, the model is trained using 24KHz sampling rate, while being very performant.
Thanks for Pneuma Solutions for providing access to the hardware I'm using to train the model.

It's one of my biggest issues too. And it's one of the things I'm trying to address through this effort.
It largely depends on the model's design, given you have a good dataset.
With large models, it is almost a solved issue, but with compact models it is a challenge.
Large models have grater capacity to learn sentence-level as well as character-level prosody.

Something you may not have realised is right-handed: playing cards.
When you pick up a card with your dominant hand and add it to the front of a card you're holding in your non-dominant hand, you create a fan towards your dominant hand.
Standard playing cards have a small version of the number and suit in two corners so that you can see them no matter which way up the card is, *as long as they're fanned right*, and many modern card games follow suit (ha!) without thinking, for the convention or aesthetic
Consider mirroring important summary information in both left and right corners (Ticket to Ride does a great job putting the suits in both corners while maintaining the pleasant asymmetrical feel of having them in one)
It's admittedly only a tiny accessibility issue, but it IS an accessibility issue, so have think about it.
