Great news everyone! Thomas Ptacek at Fly.io published "My AI Skeptic Friends Are Nuts", and it was shoved in front of me enough times that I have sentenced him to a swift death. Godspeed, Thomas, I pray that your incineration is speedy and painless.

#NVDA Speech History version 2025.1 has been released, to be compatible with NVDA 2025.1. Additionally:
* There is now a setting to control what happens after copying a speech history item: nothing, beep, speak, or both. * The post-copy beep frequency and duration are now configurable. * In NVDA 2025.1 and higher, speech history items can be viewed and copied in a browse mode window. The default keystroke for this function is NVDA+H.
The ugly foam insulation we nailed to the ceiling in a house my friend was renting back in 2006 to keep the room cooler is still there as of the last time it went up for rent last year.
Yo, real talk—what the fuck are we gonna do when the internet gets shut off?
We've seen it in #Gaza, in #Iran, and when Elon “I-play-God” Musk blacked out Starlink in Ukraine. Every time shit gets heavy, the state or some oligarch clown just pulls the plug. It ain’t just a glitch—it’s strategic, it’s repression, and it’s a fucking reminder that most of our comms infrastructure is in the hands of fascists, corporations, or both.
I’ve been working with indigenous comrades who rely on #Starlink to stay connected in remote areas. And yeah, it’s wild that you can be deep in the bush and still shitpost from a mountaintop—but that signal still runs through a pipeline owned by a Nazi tech bro.
We need to be talking more about mesh networks, autonomous infrastructure, all that good shit that anarchist tech nerds have been yelling about for years. Decentralized, resilient, community-controlled comms aren’t just cool—they’re necessary for survival.
Let’s keep this convo alive and start building the lifelines before the next blackout. Shit’s coming fast.

Updated my #NVDA sounds bat file a little. Checks for three different paths and tries to copy your waves2 folder to waves in an easy step. You should be able to put the bat file into your path and run it from an admin command prompt in one fell swoop after each NVDA update to regain your chosen sounds. dropbox.com/scl/fi/q6opzygfdzs…
@twynn Have either of you thought of creating a page somewhere with those file (& your batch file) and simple instructions? if they were in a central place with clear instructions I'd be happy to share them a bit - but don't want to cause all of us a lot of extra work explaining the same things to a lot of different people :)
@NVAccess @wenwizzle @twynn That's not a bad idea at all. Just never thought of it because I guess I just do it for myself each time. I guess how most things like this start.
You may wish to rewrite bits of it using environment variables so that it would work for other locales other than English as well, e.g., using %ProgramFiles(x86)% and %ProgramFiles% instead of absolute paths. I don't have the bandwidth for this but I can see if I can modify your batch file though I am not any sort of expert, mind. @NVAccess @wenwizzle
That kind of job is probably pretty well suited to an LLM, actually. Tedious, fiddly, but narrow in scope and sufficiently small in overall context. @twynn @NVAccess @wenwizzle
Everyone returns to email in the end. We are there already. #whatsapp wants you to add your email to secure your account ... despite all the nay sayers and numerous well funded attempts and claims to kill #email not even WA can do it. #deltachat #chatmail and #webxdc are about deep collab between people, projects and operators to evolve email from within. It is not just about SMTP and IMAP and MIME and OpenPGP which are all exchangeable and can be improved ... Which we set out to do. Cheers.

At #OSPOsForGood today during #UNOpenSourceWeek, Adriana Groh made several insightful comments during the panel “The Role of Open Source in Digital Public Infrastructure”:
"At the #SovereignTechAgency, we focus on the software that developers need to develop software. We call that 'infrastructure,' which is a different understanding to what many hear when we talk about #DPI. Both things are extremely important and exist at the same time. We need to understand how they are connected..."
"and that we need to address and sustain them in different ways, if we want to get somewhere with open digital infrastructure that serves the public’s interest.
The Sovereign Tech Agency is a quasi-public government organization investing via public procurement in maintaining digital infrastructure in a way that it serves openness and participation, and makes it possible for different participants to build software, maintain software, and innovate, which we believe is crucial..." 2/ #UNOSW
"for better outcomes, more engagement, healthy competition and innovation, bringing us the results that we need to achieve the SDGs, new business models, whatever it is we desire.
What we are trying to do is provide a blueprint. We believe we’re doing something in a specific way that is new, trying to carve out a new role for governments. What does a government need to deliver in the 21st century? We had the example with airports: a few tasks, we decided to take care of…"
“collectively, because that makes them better. We invest in infrastructure when it’s roads and bridges. We need to find out how to do this in the digital world. The blueprint we’re trying to create is like new government muscle: how can we take care of this in a way that is sustainable, secure, supports our values, & then share it? It doesn’t help if just one of us doing it, we need to do that collectively. This is why it’s great that we’re talking about this at the UN…”
“It’s a global task: it doesn’t stop at borders; it’s not a geographical topic; it connects all of us; it’s one shared ecosystem. Understanding this nature, also the production logics of open source software is important for governments and all actors, if you want to do good in this ecosystem.” 5/ #UNOpenSourceWeek
“The reality is also that money doesn’t solve all problems, unfortunately. It can create wrong incentives, it can increase stress and pressure, it can rip communities apart, it can do good in the short term but harm in the long term. We need to take all of these factors into account, if we want to channel support into our shared digital infrastructure, into #OpenSource communities.”
This information is for those who are Catholic and who are attending this year’s ACB convention in person. While reviewing the program, I didn't see any references to a Mass. In light of this, the nearest Catholic church to the hotel is likely Cathedral Guadalupe | Downtown Dallas Catholic Church 2215 Ross Avenue, Dallas, Texas 75201 cathedralguadalupe.org/ It's approximately 1.8 miles from the hotel, about a ten-minute ride. Here's their Mass and confession schedule.
Weekday • Mass - Monday through Friday at 12 noon in English and 7 p.m. in Spanish • Confessions - Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 11:55 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. to 6:55 p.m.
Sunday Mass Schedule • Sunday Mass at 8 a.m. in English • Sunday Mass at 10 a.m. in Spanish • Sunday Mass at 12 noon in English • Sunday Mass at 2 p.m. in Spanish • Sunday Mass at 5 p.m. in Spanish • Sunday Mass at 7 p.m. in Spanish Taken from this page cathedralguadalupe.org/about/m… #ACB25

I had some serious anxiety about posting this, because I didn't want it to come off the wrong way. But after starting to learn how screen reader trees are actually programmed, my verdict: accessibility programming doesn't feel as accessible to me as I'd like it to be.
Hi. I'm one of the two main AccessKit developers, along with Arnold Loubriat. Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm sorry you had such a hard time trying to use AccessKit from C#. The only thing I can say in our defense is that we have big goals for this project, but we can't do everything at once. Please bear with us as we slowly but surely make progress toward our goals.
@matt This is why I was sitting on it for so long. I didn't want to come off as if I'm slamming AccessKit. Because once I did get everything up and running, well, I got everything up and running. Most of the bugs I'm dealing with now are just how it interacts with orca and odilia specifically, and some of them are probably bugs in the aforementieoned screen readers.
There's a significant development in the saga of website blocking in Canada: Quebec's agency that regulates financial markets is banning cryptoexchanges XT and CoinEx, and to enforce it they got a court order forcing listed ISPs to block the sites: lautorite.qc.ca/en/general-pub… #siteblocking 1/3
These blocking orders originally enforced copyright in the GoldTV case, but have now been used to enforce trademarks (Indigo) and now financial markets. Who could have predicted? Everyone. 2/3

I’m not taking the side of violence because I can’t be violent. I’d get squashed by nearly anyone. But has any important social movement forward ever succeeded without violence? We have never achieved anything like suffrage, gay/lesbian rights, accessibility rights, racial rights, etc without violence. It is only when they have physically overthrown oppressors that progressives have succeeded. I don’t think that everyone who chooses violence in the name of a progressive cause is “mentally ill.”
