Hoy he comido en el restaurante Con Culler, en Compostela. Todo muy rico. Cantidad digna tirando a justa, pero yo no soy de mucho comer y me llega perfectamente. Precio razonable. Servicio excelente.
Got my MNT Pocket Reform. It’s definitely unlike anything else I’ve used, part good, part headache. The keyboard is a nightmare — no bumps on F and J, and every key is just a small concave circle, so shift, space, enter, backspace, all of it feels exactly the same. The build is solid, nicely balanced, screws are easy to find and open, so no complaints there. But even turning it on is an issue. Supposedly there’s a standby switch, but I can’t feel one anywhere. There’s just a hole on the left side that looks like a SIM eject slot, but sticking a tool in feels like it would just sink straight through.
Figured out the standby switch. It’s that tiny hole on the left side — you have to poke it with a tool. Doesn’t actually turn the machine on, it just takes the batteries out of shipping mode.
Apparently to turn the MNT Pocket Reform on I need to press Hyper + Enter. Slight problem: I have no idea where the Hyper key is, and no idea where Enter is either.
I've got the mnt pocket reform booted, but have already managed to trash the image by trying to bypass the currently inaccessible setup wizard, so investigating other potential avenues to configure the system.
It's not all doom and gloom though, as from this experience, I can confirm that the mnt team, at least @mntmn is very helpful and want MNT products to be accessible!
Well that's great and all, but sounds like that keyboard is a big ol accessability fail! You could hook an external keyboard to it but there goes portability...I'd be returning it just based on the keyboard if it were me. I bet you'll stick with it though which is admirable.
@GamingWithEars It's not too bad once you add bump ons to f and j. The keyboard definition file is in the source tree, which defines all the keys row by row.
Today, I was contacted by someone who is researching their ancestors and discovered that our family trees intersect. Her family ended up with the Czech phonetic transcription Ajšman, while our family ended up with the German transcription Eischmann. Our common ancestor was named Tomáš Aišmon and was born in 1728.
So let me get this straight. Quebec cabinet shuffle bring the guy who do not want to hear about Green House Gas into the Environment portfolio. Canadian PM must be happy to have a great mind thinking alike in the provinces.
imagine SkyNet selectively breeding humans to mature quickly and be dependent on its existence, unable to fend for themselves, used as a natural resource or for labor (they only require biofuel).
Well, I have a very dodgy but kinda working CLAP plugin which captures audio output from a specific Windows app and brings it into REAPER. The audio is very glitchy, the process id to capture is hard-coded, etc., but it's definitely possible. 210 lines of code and about 5 hours of work so far.
That's intriguing... Can it also be made to go the other way, I.E. send from a plugin to a Windows process, or even just to a generic audio device? This, of course, when other stuff is working better...
Wowzers, only 210 lines! Not trivializing the skills required to write those of course, I just thought the line count would be higher by the time you'd gotten something cookin'.
@Scott If you want to play: git clone --recursive github.com/jcsteh/app2clap.git Edit src/main.cpp, search for TargetProcessId, change it to whatever process id. scons Copy build/app2clap.clap to %localappdata%\programs\common\CLAP Add as an effect in REAPER. I'm going to bed.
@FreakyFwoof I guess? Not familiar with that beyond the very basics of it being used to capture app audio. Knowing Windows audio, it's probably far less powerful, but I'll take this over having to set up wild driver craziness.
@ToniBarth Maybe we could contribute some of the GUI gruntwork to this in a few of our sessions Toni? I'm thinking: 1. Minimum GUI could be a browse button, loads Open dialog, choose app to capture. Or 2. Easier for users, a combo box that populates with active PIDs and a Refresh button.
@Scott @ToniBarth I think a list of pids would be easier. But there can be a hell of a lot of running processes, so I'm not sure how usable that would be. A list of foreground windows might be nicer, but that means you can't choose a process with no UI window like NVDA. There are multiple reasons a GUI for this is going to be annoying. Before we even get to this, we need to figure out how to hook up a Win32 GUI to a CLAP plugin in an accessible way.
@ToniBarth iPlug2 can do HTML5/CSS GUIs, can build CLAP plug-ins, the lead dev has a long history with Cockos and knows what accessibility is. Does that help at all?

Ich bin ehrlich. Finde es schön, dass ihr euch da so ins Zeug legt. Für meinen Teil aber, benötige ich keine zusätzliche Kalender App. Ich benutze Tuta seit einigen Jahren und verwende den Kalender direkt über den Mail Klienten. Reicht mir allemal.
When composing a message in the Android app, empty lines are not shown before one writes some visible characters after the empty lines. That's confusing - I can't see whether I entered empty lines and how many. Could you change this behaviour, please?
great updates! Something I've been curious about and holsing me back from your calendar is event invites. This is because I struggled to make them work with other open source calendars previously and I'm highly skeptical of digital calendars (even though I'd like to break away from Google).
For example, I tested out a CalDav server as well as Murena calendar quite extensively last year and was disappointed that when inviting others or being invited. I don't like email notifications in general, but not even those would send most of the time and when they did I had to manually download the calendar event and add it. Is this similar to how calendar invites work on Tuta calendar?
that's great to hear! Do they only work with Tuta accounts or is the feature parity the same no matter what account the other people I'm inviting have?
Wann wird es ein Kalender-Widget für die Tutanota Mail App geben? Ja es gibt die Kalender App von Tutanota, die ein Widget hat, doch dieses ist Blau, mehr nicht. Ich mag es lieber, wenn ich ein Widget meinem Design anpassen kann. Farben, Transparenz, Größe etc.
At some point I think it will only be fair to require --insecure for #curl to do an unauthenticated protocol transfer (unless it is localhost). For clear text http:// etc.
well that's debatable, if you draw the line at kernel vs network card then you can easily have "LAN like IPs" that are just local. For example the default `bridge` network in Docker to communicate between containers on a single host.
I think that's a reasonable proposal, but one that will require a long, permissive ramp period. In my experience, especially in lower environments, people are lazy and a binary switch will require a long passive introduction period.
Agreed! Safari on iOS already has an option to initially deny HTTP connections with a warning (default not yet enabled). I think it's the way to go. support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/…
And another thing: What even is this "Politics" that some people don't want you to talk about?
Are we talking about the stately and important machinations of state, in which laws are debated and passed, elections are held, spiced with the occasional scandal from a misbehaving representative of the people?
Are we talking about televised screaming matches between horrible people in formal wear trying to persuade the voting public that the other guy is somehow even worse than they themselves are?
Is it things that one of these awful people has decided to talk about in order to win votes?
Are we talking about the daily realities of real human beings that other people aren't comfortable hearing about?

We really need a legislation to force Android vendors that are selling their phones in EU to allow "bootloader unlocking".
Like, come on. It's literally a one-bit check by an "application" before loading the Linux kernel. Yet, vendor after vendor is removing the ability to skip this check for muh "security".
It's never about security, it's about control. If you can't install your own OS, they can collect your data to sell and push ads onto you. It's basically like buying a laptop in 2008 with Windows Vista and pre-loaded malware that made it unusable. Everyone wiped it and installed a clean copy of XP or Linux, imagine being unable to do that...
If we don't stand up to vendors, in the future they'll take this option away. I hope they realize there'll be no reason to buy Android anymore (no way to "sideload" due to Play Protect, no way to replace the OS/remove GApps) and everyone will go "fuck it, I'm just gonna get an iPhone".
For many years Android/iOS duopoly was unbreakable, but thanks to Google's recent (stupid) decisions this could (and I hope will) change. Current "smartphones" are just the prefect tools of digital dystopia.
I would be really cautious with the wording. Instead "bootloader unlocking" I would force something as "alternative system installation with posibility to apply same security measures" as much broader set of features is needed to install OS.
You want to allow unlock bootloader, flash custom OS, load custom cetificates/keys/... to bootloader, relock the bootloader, verify and boot alternative OS signed with alternative keys.
Fingerprint reader functionality under #Linux sucks.
1. Every few reboots/updates/whatever-triggers it, the fingerprint functionality GETS DISABLED all by itself. The bug is there in BOTH Ubuntu and Arch Linux ( #gnome ).
2. GDM won't let me choose between pass & fingerprint reading. This has repercussions for gnome's keyring.
3. Because the keyring is not unlocked, launching things like Chrome requires you to type a password! Again!
True. Unlocking account without also unlocking keyring is useless. And it is quite unreliable. After several sleep modes, fingerprint reader just doesn't work. But this is probably firmware/driver problem.
@stepan Yes, it happens after waking up, after reboots (but not consistent when it happens). I don't know who's bug it is, Canonical should not have put their stake on this laptop that came preinstalled with Ubuntu and it's supposedly "fully supported".
@stepan same thing here. If I interpret the crash log correctly, the fingerprint reader is connected via mobo internal USB hub and simply not (yet?) available directly after wakeup. So either the process should wait until peripherals are online or do something else until they are. Now it just terminates. Problem is, I have no experience at all fixing something like that…
I could use a bit of help from the blind/visually impaired community. Boosts appreciated.

I need to get a sign made for the public wild space and I'm struggling to find a signmaker that will do it. Aside from recommendations for anyone who could make a weatherproof B/VI-accessible sign in the UK it would help to know:
* We have been told more visually impaired people are able to read raised text over braille. Is that likely, would raised text be the more inclusive option? * We're planning to note the length of the nature path on the sign, which we assume would be helpful (please correct me on that though) but we also want to note the location of a bench. Is this practically useful? * The bench is just off the main path, literally next to it. What would be the best way to indicate its location so it could be found. By distance from the sign? * If you do use signage in community spaces or wish there were more, what other information might you want to have on the sign apart from the above, and contact details? We are reaching out to local organisations to raise awareness of the nature walk too.

After a long long work day I finally had a chance to read the specs on the new phones. I think I will probably be staying with the Pro line. I do wish though Apple improved the accessibility of their video editing apss so that we can take advantage of this awesome hardware without having to always download to the computer Imovie, I'm thinking of you! :) .

this is a vulnerability only for users using "ws://" explicitly so such users would presumably override a secure-only filter if there would be one... (which there isn't... yet)
I was talking about the http cookie OOB read bug, which presumably can be triggered when an attacker redirects you from an https url you intended to fetch to an http url on another site.

I made a tool for generating a Yggdrasil key/address so you can template your configs and dynamically deploy nodes that will be able to all mesh with each other.
It's kinda clunky trying to figure out how to consistently generate and deploy the configs otherwise. You'd have to generate a config normally just to get the key, but you won't know the address it will be, then try to apply your changes to that config, etc etc
I have a local FreeBSD port for it too, it's just simple Go code

The Carney government's suspension of the EV mandate has nothing to do with “pragmatism” or “moderation” as I heard an interviewee say on the CBC this morning.
It's about the Ontario car industry realizing they don't make EVs or even Hybrids that can compete with Korea, Japan, or Europe (let alone China).
People want them. BC is at 20% new (the mandated level), Quebec is at 30%. Those are the #2 and #3 most populous provinces in Canada btw.
It's politics, and... specifically with Carney, cowardice, nothing else. BC’s Energy Minister Adrian Dix called it out
“I want to say this: Their target for this year, we achieved four years ago,” Dix said of the existing federal electric vehicle mandates. “The issue here in Canada -- and I think the federal government needs to engage in this a little bit -- is first and foremost with Ontario.”
British Columbia’s energy minister says the federal decision to delay its electric vehicle sales mandate largely reflects circumstances in Ontario, and Ottawa should follow through on a more Canada-wide policy after its review.
In a rare outing in DC to a public restaurant, President Trump dined at Joe’s Seafood this evening with a disruption inside by protesters waving Palestinian flags and small banners, according to radio pool reporter Sagar Meghani.
