Who Could Ever Love You by Mary Trump review – family burn book dishes on Donald | Autobiography and memoir | The Guardian theguardian.com/books/2024/sep…

#writefreely is connected to the #FediVerse, but it seems, for now only in one direction?

I can follow writefreely blogs and have the posts in the FediVerse timeline. But comments from the FediVerse are not shown on the writefreeely blog website.

Are there plans to implement it, @writefreely@writing.exchange ?

An article just went up on Eurogamer talking about the Periphery Synthetic game and the state of game accessibility for both blind gamers and blind developers. It features comments from many respected blind consultants and developers including @talon, @shaysters and yours truely. I think it's totally worth a read because it covers the topic from multiple angles very well eurogamer.net/periphery-synthe… #GameAccessibility #GameDev #IndieDev

@Orinks I just wish I could figure it out. I really wish there was a sound guide to understand the different sounds. I want so much to get into this because it is such a chill thing.

@blindbat84 @Orinks What I would suggest you do to start with is go into the settings and turn down the music a bit at least to start. It’s really pretty and dynamic changing based on where you are but it can make things more confusing. Then, just keep doing the area scan which will reveal any materials you can collect with pings followed by a continuous sound that you can just center and move toward. After you collect a material, rinse and repeat. Eventually this will let you upgrade parts of the suit to let you drive around and eventually also fly. The other sounds you hear when you scan is a continuous rhythmic beeping for your next destination of interest which might be more prceptions you can read or a portal to the next world, and the other sounds you hear that quickly change in pitch is the terrain shape around you. So if you hear the scanner make very high pitched humming that tells you there are hills you might need to jump up to climb, while if you hear lower descending sounds that tells you there are valleys. @bscross32 did a short gameplay recording that demonstrates a lot of this in practice though his suit is already upgraded a bit which yours won’t be at first. audiopub.site/listen/f4205bca-…

September 15: 40 minutes delay so far. Time to bet on whether the train even shows up or whether they just say "screw it" and cancel it altogether.
Not that it helps me be any less stuck here for the next half hour, mind you.

some people need to look up what "practicality" means. You can use things outside of what the "this is literally the best thing ever" people endorse. Or go a step further and embrace it like I do! C++ and Zig (not memory safe!), JS (clown language!), an iPhone (Apple fucking sucks!), GNOME (ew it looks so modern!). Jeez...

I have played a little bit with OpenAI's new iteration of #GPT, GPT-o1, which performs an initial reasoning step before running the LLM. It is certainly a more capable tool than previous iterations, though still struggling with the most advanced research mathematical tasks.

Here are some concrete experiments (with a prototype version of the model that I was granted access to). In chatgpt.com/share/2ecd7b73-360… I repeated an experiment from mathstodon.xyz/@tao/1099482491… in which I asked GPT to answer a vaguely worded mathematical query which could be solved by identifying a suitable theorem (Cramer's theorem) from the literature. Previously, GPT was able to mention some relevant concepts but the details were hallucinated nonsense. This time around, Cramer's theorem was identified and a perfectly satisfactory answer was given.

You should always want your tools to be better, and taking an uncreative view of the possibilities of software tools locks us into a culture where we blame people for their natural limitations instead of questioning whether our tools could make the experience both less error-prone and more enjoyable

lt's not about losing power at home. It's about the shitty USB-C that lose the power at the laptop. It's the fucking laptop. 7 year old laptop. But I have been using the USB-C since the Dell jack AC adapter died (XPS13).

@webreflection I had Thinkpads before that but I got the Dell when Lenovo didn't want to take my money. Really until this one dies I have no incentive to replace it. And I dread that time.

And yes I'm not convinced I should buy a Dell again. Because they are definitely one of the worst customer support I encountered.

Znám rozdíl mezi státní a veřejnoprávní. 🙂Nicméně i veřejnoprávní medium může být financováno z daní a přitom plnit svoji roli. Výši poplatku u nás tuším stanovuje parlament. Proč tedy koncesionářský poplatek, když se mu stejně nemůžu vyhnout (podobně jako daním) a na jeho výši má vliv parlament (jako v případě daní)? Jen další administrativa s jeho výběrem, z daní by to byla jen milionprvní škatulka, kam se peníze přesunou. 😁 Neznám legální způsob, jak neplatit. 😉

Já toto vše znám. Neřeším, zda platit nebo neplatit, já platit musím a platím. Jen, v tomto případě, nevidím rozdíl, zda jde platba zákonem přímo z rozpočtu (pokud je např. stanovena fixně na základě, řekněme, sčítání obyvatel) nebo zákonem formou poplatků, jejichž výši stanovují opět politici. Je to tedy skutečně finanční nezávislost?

can anyone recommend some material when it comes to learning Polish? (both in terms of typical learning material you'd find, and (especially!) also in terms of media to consume that is in that language)

Skvělé, Vodafone vám vymění eSIM kartu jen jednou za den, ale to se dozvíte až v momentě, kdy je eSIM karta z druhého zařízení odebraná 🙄
Přenést eSIM do jiného zařízení Upozorňujeme, že převedením přestane fungovat eSIM ve vašem současném zařízení. Nebojte se, celým postupem vás provedeme. Objednat eSIM je možné pouze 1× za den. Zdá se, že jste vyčerpali všechny pokusy o objednání. Můžete tedy počkat do zítra nebo volejte zdarma na 800 77 00 77 (77 ze sítě Vodafone).

@babaq těžko říct, ale vůbec by mě nepřekvapilo, kdyby za vytvoření každé eSIM platili licenční poplatky - ostatně ta infrastruktura pro eSIM je společná pro všechny operátory.

Jako mnohem horší problém se ale jeví, že Vodafoní samoobsluha vyžaduje dvoufaktorové ověření pomocí SMS zaslané právě na SIM kartu, která neexistuje.

My generation 3 Sims are getting ready to pass on soon, so here's them spending time together through the years.

They didn't know each other for as long as my Gen 2 sims did, and they didn't always have a perfect marriage (the Prom incident was them), but they made it through. They were the first set of parents to have multiple children in my main legacy family, and they did an amazing job raising their kids while being very accomplished in their careers. They were also wonderful grandparents.

Das Kontaktsemester geht zu Ende

Es war eine gute Zeit, und nun geht sie zu Ende. Morgen ist mein letzter Tag im Kontaktsemester. Ich will ihn nutzen, um schon mal einen Überblick zu bekommen, was danach dienstlich alles auf mich zukommt. Also ist es inoffiziell irgendwie auch schon der erste Tag wieder im Dienst.

Ein Bericht ist geschrieben, ein paar Vorhaben habe ich formuliert, vom frischen Wind in meinem Kopf werde ich hoffentlich eine Weile profitieren. Ich freue mich auf den Wiedereinstieg in die Gemeinde, auf die Menschen, auf die neue Gruppe der Konfirmand*innen, mit denen wir bald starten werden, auf die schönen Gottesdienste in der Predigerkirche und darauf, selbst wieder welche zu halten... Noch immer beschäftigt mich vieles, was ich in den letzten drei Monaten (vor allem in Bradford) erlebt, gefühlt oder gedacht habe. Vielleicht wird manches davon weitergehen.

Diesen Blog schließe ich nun erst einmal wieder. Es ist der zweite auf dieser Plattform nach den Advent-Gedanken vom letzten Jahr. Der nächste kommt sicher irgendwann, wenn es sich anbietet. Macht's gut und bleibt behütet.

I love toolbox reliability:
