Gone ar the days I'd use the Run dialog for everything. These days it has become almost a list of favourite things, and anything else can be run from typing into the start menu.

I still use the run dialogue. Haha. But gone are the days when I used Windows, so I have forgotten a lot of things. Typing into the start menu is too slow for me. the days of having a giant destktop list with icons, however, haven't gone yet.

It would be nice if Microsoft could stop breaking the accessibility of the Windows clipboard history panel.

Lost all hope in that years ago. Now I just set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\AllowClipboardHistory to 0, and use ditto. If that key doesn't exist, make it, it needs to be a DWORD.

@tristan @TheQuinbox I haven't heard of Ditto, but the homepage makes it sound good. How's the accessibility? Does it use its own hotkeys, or can it take over the default Windows ones? This one doesn't matter much to me, but I'm curious: can syncing be done by hosting a local service, or does it always use Ditto's servers?

@alexhall @TheQuinbox I don't think it can take over the default Windows hotkeys, but I've never tried. My muscle memory is quite comfortable with the defaults now. It's 100% local; I host my ditto.db on my NAS and have access to it from anywhere using the LAN or Tailscale. There's a system that you can set up that allows "friends" (other machines) to send you clips, via a server-client model, which I've never messed with.

@tristan @alexhall @TheQuinbox no, the windows copy and paste keys remain as is.
Ditto hooks into copy so you can retrieve any number of previously copied items, I suppose is the best way to put it.

@cachondo @tristan @TheQuinbox Ah, that makes sense. So it automatically saves everything I copy, but pasting previous clips is done with ctrl-`. Really, it just replaces win-v with ctrl-`. I assume that if I select a previous clip, my clipboard is set to that clip so I can ctrl-v the same clip later if I want to.
@Quin @Tristan @Sean Randall

@alexhall @tristan @TheQuinbox ctrl+V will always paste the last thing on your clipboard of course. And yes by default, entering on an item in Ditto's interface will put it back there for you, although it also attempts to paste it where you are if it can.

@Alex Hall @Quin @Tristan
in reply to Alex Hall

Tristan
Tristan
• •
@alexhall @TheQuinbox Oh, right, and the accessibility is great. I press ctrl+` and get dropped into a list of my latest items. I can arrow up and down the list, start typing to search, and press applications/context menu on clips to view more details. It's literally that easy. There's an options dialog that is also pretty usable, although Sean mentioned there were occasional issues with setting hotkeys upthread. I've not changed my hotkeys in a very long time so I can't comment to that.

You mean it would be nice if Microsoft would just stop breaking things.. LOL. I don’t think they’re capable of not breaking something at this point.

Včera som zase musel vyhadzovať nejakého týpka z bytu. Majiteľka ho tam našla spať, včera prišiel s tým že si tú izby prenajme na dva mesiace. Tak volám majiteľke a ona ho tam nechce. Majiteľka potom volá späť spolubývajúcemu a sama mu hovorí že ho tam nechce, neviem čo budem robiť keď ho tam nájdem znova.

Najlepšie na tom je že začali chodiť už dvaja čo tam nemajú čo robiť a podľa mňa veľmi dôveryhodne nevyzerajú.

Oh dear.
I've been told I need a waited blanket today, because 'a well-known blind influencer' said they're good for blind people. Obviously this person is a follower and has just assumed I have trouble sleeping because I'm blind.

In the same discussion, she tells me that audible have great offers on this week, which will be brilliant for me. Because I'm blind.

I wish people would stop telling me I'm blind (hint: I already know), and secondly maybe not assume that what works for one blind person works for everyone. My blindness may be one of my most obvious characteristics, but it certainly isn't the only one.
For the record I sleep very well and don't listen to audiobooks.

UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer’s unexpected behavior | daniel.haxx.se

I've complained about this before, but GitHub projects with a stale bot make me far less likely to want to take the time to carefully report issues. I think it's disrespectful of reporters' time to auto close issues they possibly put a lot of effort into filing. I don't often file bugs against Apple products for the same reason: the bugs just go into a void most of the time with absolutely no feedback, especially if they get closed as duplicates. What's the point of me investing possibly hours of my time writing thorough bug reports if they might just get closed and practically lost without a glance?

Están hablando de los "cordones sanitarios" con la extrema derecha. Ponen el caso de que la semana pasada en el parlamento de Navarra no debatieron una mocion de vox sobre inmigración porque estaba llena de "mensajes de odio". El supremo (o la AN, no sé) dice que es censura y se debe debatir todo lo que se proponga según las vías, sin embargo en otros casos ha prohibido debates en Cataluña sobre la monarquía.

Porque una cosa es debate y otra debatizaje.

@modulux @swearyanthony Whilst #touchscreens can increase #accessibility and #longevity (no button / force needed) they also can hinder intuitive operation.

the only form of "accessibility with touchscreens" I've seen are either alternative menues & audio navigation (like on most modern ATMs in Germany) - bypassing touch entirely like a phone tree - or some #TTS reading where one swipes if not the entire screen.

I'd love to really dive into this...

The model for touchscreen accessibility is mobile OSes like iOS and Android. They have the TTS approach, allowing to touch the elements on the screen and using double tap to select. It's not ideal for devices that may require quick action such as a cooker though, in my opinion.

Last week the n0 team did get together in one physical place. We've figured out a path to 1.0 that all of us are happy with!
Why does 1.0 matter for you? It is when we'll promise protocol & API compatibility into the future. To get there we'll have to break the wire protocol one more time, but we'll roll this out slowly in a backwards compatible way and only actually break the backwards compatibility in a release candidate. Aiming for sometime next year!

Running #chatmail servers is <2h effort per month, according to an ad-hoc poll with 10 operators responding. Some have 10Ks of #deltachat users. Typically 300MB ram is used and max 60gb disc space per server. And all interoperate safely based on high security standards (DKIM and TLS enforced, and only no-metadata #openpgp encrypted messages allowed) .... with typically 0.5 secs end-to-end delivery. Who said again that email is insecure, cumbersome and slow? :)
