I've got a lot of writing to do over the next few weeks. Taking it easy tonight before I dive headfirst into that pool tomorrow. Going to potentially be flexing some figurative muscles soon, and it's sure to be a good time.
tío, no me pongas en la descripción de medios image.mpeg. suena a que quieres salir del paso con un que os jodan ciegos. o lo describes bien, o no pongas nada!
Instead of making the editor work with all kinds of existing code formatting conventions, make existing code conform to the editor's preferred code formatting convention.

@BorrisInABox So, you seem to be a good sluth for finding radio stuff. So here's one for ya. I only heard it once, but was able to record it... and then promply lose it. It was a skit called Nightmare on Sesame Street. It was hilarious! Have you ever heard of it?
Elmo is having nightmares and does not want to go to sleep. He is dreaming about a man with a burned face and a claw.This isnt A Nightmare On Elm Street...Th...

No jo, když Fico snížil tresty, tak si bohužel někteří uvědomili, že se vyplatí krást. Jsem rád, že nežiju na Slovensku a děsím se toho, co vymyslí ti naši kokoti v nové vládě.
This is huge! We’re making it easier to use voice dictation with TalkBack on Android. Launching soon, you will be able to start dictating in Gboard with a simple two-finger double-tap. blog.google/products/android/a…
This December, Android is getting new accessibility updates like dark theme’s expanded option, emotion tags in Expressive Captions, easier Voice Access and more.
obscure question so please repost: using ESpeak afrikaans, I'm writing the word 'n which is being pronounced "en" when it should by rights be pronounced "a". This is a fundamental word in the language so they wouldn't have missed it...what rule has been broken somewhere, dear linguists?

This is a repository of apps to be used with your F-Droid client. Applications in this repository are official binaries built by the original application developers, taken from their resp. repositories (mostly Github, GitLab, Codeberg).
Don't forget to fill the Rust programming language survey. Whether you are just distantly interested in Rust, or work daily with it, it's worthwhile to fill it!
This is getting a bit more traction than my posts usually do, so hi, people reading me, a bit more context for my being pissed off about Calibre putting AI into its feature set:
I am an author. I've released work with Carina Press, and I've released work on my own. My released work is on record as HAVING BEEN STOLEN BY OPENAI, and I am in fact one of the many, many authors who've had to file claims on the settlement with Anthropic.
So I am not kidding when I say I don't want that technology, technology which HAS STOLEN FROM ME, anywhere near a program I use. ESPECIALLY the program I've used to not only manage my ebook library, but even perform format conversions on my work to prep it for sale. /1
"Oh, but they're unobtrusive, you don't have to use the features if you don't want them" isn't good enough. My baseline is "I don't want that crap in programs I use AT ALL". Period. Full stop.
So I will for the foreseeable future remain on Calibre 8.10, the last known version to have no AI features in it whatsoever. And if an AI-free competitor eventually shows up, I am prepared to transfer my ebooks into a new manager if I have to.
Am I extremely fucking salty about this? YES I AM. Because, again: THIS TECHNOLOGY STOLE MY WORK and that of countless other creatives all over the world. And it's insulting and infuriating to me to see it creeping into each and every corner of my daily computer use no matter how much I DO NOT WANT IT. /End
Thank you for your rejection. Unfortunately due to the high volume of rejections I have received, I have been unable to accept yours. As a result, I must inform you that I will see you on Monday for my first shift.
Going to the gym on a Sunday is like experiencing a microcosm on its own, with power dynamics, hierarchies, and unwritten rules based on honor and muscle girth
This adds support for MacOS via an AVSpeechSynthesizer bridge and its matching C# AVSpeechProvider. Tested under MacOS 26.1, earlier versions might have issues.

Another nice surprise! A careful discussion and appreciation of our almost 8-year long running efforts, and its #deltachat and #chatmail artifacts. The "Signal contingency plan" comes complete with podcast, website and zine!

What miss it's an easier way to choose our server with an auto select (based on location) of them (if the operator of the relay agree to join), to push user accross them.
For 1 increate server failure resillience (if everyone is on the default and that one stop the whole system is down).
Finish the docker image (must be a emergency feature).
And finally approach governement like Germany, France etc to use your app, and make it more known.
Zuckerberg has blown 77 billion – enough money to revitalize entire countries – on an idea so overwhelmingly, obviously stupid that I have never once heard anyone, from the Thanksgiving avuncular table to the most wretched depths of social media, say they liked it or even tried it. He was so sure that it would revolutionize the world that he renamed his extremely famous company after it. And now he's on to the next thing that he's so very, very sure about.
The world needs direction from sober people who aim to improve the human condition, not the whims of a handful of billionaire princelings who absolutely, positively cannot be dissuaded from failing at unprecedented scale while chasing their own vainglory off the edge of a cliff.
Using my Sound Remote/Virtual Here Android to Windows remote control to control my PC from the bed just because, I can. I'm tired and it works so flawlessly with almost no delay. Honestly much better than trying to get a somewhat proper lag free bluetooth/wireless connection from devices directly to the PC to work.
I didn't quite believe this when I first started. It is actually easier to set up, and more reliable than bluetooth audio and braille. Bluetooth, the very short distance product, is actually worse, in terms both of latency and ease of startup, than the product on the network. Seriously, I just don't know what to say. This doesn't make sense. The only thing which brings things sort of into competition is aptx. That both costs money and is sometimes unavailable. Again, talk about counterintuitive.
@techsinger Yup, + I can use my keyboard under my blanket without lag and yeah, connectivity issues. It's just as you said, much more stable. Impressive, but hey I can't complain really. Love it. I wanna try to get Sound Remote started up automatically though, when I need it or something. Maybe through a keystroke. Because atm, I always have to fall back to NVDA Remote for the first minute or so to configure stuff, like unlocking the PC and opening Sound Remote.
Personally, I disable automatic locking for my home machines. It helps that I don't have a monitor and I trust my people completely, but even if it were just no monitor, I would forget about locking. I haven't used sounddRmote yet, but do have Sonobus on win+2 which launches it and connects it to the group automatically. All I have to do is hit win+2 and then launch SB to get sound. VH is automatic for the keyboard and if the display is plugged into the phone, it uses that as well. The only time I have to start up is after a reboot, and that's just because I'm lazy, I could very easily have SB start on boot.
A full list of changes from the previous release (version 165) is available through the Git commit log between the releases (only changes to the gmscompat_config text file and config-holder/ directory are part of GmsCompatConfig).
GmsCompatConfig is the text-based configuration for the GrapheneOS sandboxed Google Play compatibility layer. It provides a large portion of the compatibility shims.
This update is available to GrapheneOS users via our app repository and will also be bundled into the next OS release.
Hey @FreakyFwoof sup! I was told via brother @cordova5029 that you had a soundfont you've made? I wanted to see if it'll be good to use in the tracker I work with? Also putting this here to gage interest on old hardware disks and stuff out there, I have some old Korg DSS1 disk if anyone wants em.
Guess an #introduction is in order. Not sure I ever did one for my first instance, whoops.
Hi, my name is James an I've moved from an instance that is closing down soon.
I'm absolutely queer but working a boring office job in Germany, trying to remind ppl at work that personal data needs protection and that genAI came fresh out of pandora's box and does not belong in their daily job.
In my free time I #write fic, #draw digital art and #read a lot of books, mostly #scifi. I play a handful of computer games like #GW2. I watch a lot of tv shows and love Star Trek and Doctor Who.
I love #space, #nature, #cats and #photography (although my photos are just taken with my phone). I post them mostly on my Pixelfed account.
Guess that's it for now. I probably forgot a lot of stuff that people write into introductions, but feel free to ask x)
re #lastboost, this is why limiting access to accessibility services on Android is so necessary, so is preventing istallation of non-Google-approved apps.
Intel 471 reports FvncBot, a new Android banking trojan targeting Polish users via a fake mBank security app. It abuses accessibility services for keylogging, employs web injects, screen streaming and HVNC, and has a new codebase not tied to leaked source codes. intel471.com/blog/new-fvncbot-…
