I thought I was going crazy since #Today I can't find any obvious mention of #Dovecot and #ChatMail servers.

BUT, here it is: github.com/chatmail/relay/tree…

Based on the kinda snippy text there in the readme, I guess the #DeltaChat folks decided they want to down-play the dovecot dependency in case they decided to do something else in future.

Also, "custom builds" might make some folks ... itchy.

it is a custom build because of this one patch that upstream for some reason hasn't merged. Dovecot sleeps for 500ms before actually delivering a mail to the client because of some ancient race condition they couldn't figure out, it's really dumb

Hlasovanie o riešení kritického nedostatku liekov

Parlament v utorok prijal návrhy na zlepšenie dostupnosti a dodávok základných liekov v EÚ. Má za cieľ zabezpečiť vysokú úroveň ochrany verejného zdravia pre občanov EÚ znížením závislosti EÚ od iných krajín a zvýšením konkurencieschopnosti jej farmaceutického sektora.

Poslanci Európskeho parlamentu podporujú vytváranie priemyselných „strategických projektov“ v EÚ s cieľom vytvoriť, modernizovať a zlepšiť výrobné kapacity. Chcú, aby národné vlády a EÚ uprednostnili finančnú podporu strategických projektov v súčasnom rozpočte a v nasledujúcom viacročnom finančnom rámci EÚ. Spoločnosti, ktoré využívajú verejnú finančnú podporu, musia spĺňať jasné povinnosti vrátane uprednostňovania dodávok na trh EÚ.

Podľa ich návrhov by verejní obstarávatelia v EÚ museli uplatňovať požiadavky na obstarávanie, ktoré uprednostňujú výrobcov vyrábajúcich významnú časť týchto kritických liekov v EÚ. Správa tiež zdôrazňuje výhody dobrovoľného cezhraničného obstarávania s cieľom zlepšiť dodávky, najmä liekov na zriedkavé choroby, antimikrobiálnych látok a iných inovatívnych, nákladných alebo špecializovaných liečebných postupov. Poslanci Európskeho parlamentu chcú znížiť počet krajín, ktoré sa môžu zapojiť do spoločných postupov obstarávania, na najmenej päť

S cieľom lepšie predvídať a riadiť nedostatky poslanci Európskeho parlamentu vyzývajú na vytvorenie koordinačného mechanizmu EÚ pre národné zásoby a pohotovostné zásoby kritických liekov. Chcú tiež, aby Komisia mala právomoc rozhodnúť o prerozdelení liekov z jednej národnej zásoby do jednej alebo viacerých iných krajín ako o poslednej možnosti v prípadoch, keď sa zistí nedostatok alebo prerušenie dodávok.

I've been using the new Microsoft Outlook for a while, and although it was usable and had some nice features, it was never quite as accessible as I was hearing it was from other blind users. I went back and reviewed chapter 4 of David Kingsbury's book, Windows Screenreader Primer from the Carroll Center for the Blind, and changing the following setting made all of the difference! 😎

In the view group, I went into the Reading pane menu and checked the Popout only item.

Chao-c'

tak ten vysoký počet sledujících mají často z toho důvodu, že je díky mastodexu sledují další a další lidé.

V úplně prvních momentech Twitter exodu to bylo lepší než nic, ale po těch 2 letech to už nedává moc smysl. Zvlášť proto, že některé ty účty jsou v podstatě neaktivní a ty sledující jim naskakují právě jen kvůli tomu uvedení na seznamu... taková sociální renta ze sociálního kapitálu :-))

I'm happy to announce ChapterPod, an app for adding chapters to podcast files, is now available to download!

I've been using this for about 6 months behind the scenes to do all the chapters for Comfort Zone, and it's easily the best tool for the job (for me, at least).

He conseguido probar, con algo de dificultad, que la suma, resta y producto de reales definidos como clases de equivalencia no dependen de representantes específicos, y que cumplen las leyes del anillo (más o menos). Algún lema sobre positividad. ahora me falta la tricotomía. No sé si habré elegido bien usando secuencias en lugar de cortes de Dedekind. Pero es que las pruebas de supremos e ínfimos me tocan las narices bastante; es un coñazo tener que hacer análisis de casos con eso.

I couldn't believe that PC Gamer headline was a proper reflection of what was said, but... it was.
The thing which most annoys me is that they seem to believe they have a right to do a damaging thing (which they acknowledge is damaging) in the hope that they might find something impactful to do with it (which they acknowledge they haven't, yet) because there's currently a lot of hype about it, and the only time limit on this is "find something before the hype runs out".
Right now, the zeitgeist is a little bit about the admiration for AI in its abstract form or as as technology. But I think we as even a global community have to get to a point where we are using this to do something useful. That changes the outcomes of people and communities and countries and industries. Otherwise I don't think this makes much sense. In fact I would say we will quickly lose even the social permission to actually take something like energy, which is a scarce resource, and use it to generate these tokens, if these tokens are not improving health outcomes, education outcomes, public sector efficiency, private sector competitiveness across all sectors, small and large, right? And that to me is ultimately the goal. Satya Nadella, Microsoft CEO, Davos 2026 youtube.com/watch?v=1co3zt3-r7I

RE: hear-me.social/@Lacze/11593625…

The "brilliant" minds behind the new social network wsocial.eu forgot to grab related domain names, so I applaud the efforts of the creator of w-social.eu... encouraging people to be social and simply join the fediverse.

Fun fact: yesterday I almost registered wsocial.lol (1 Euro for the first year) and wsocial.wtf.

I guess if I see an article in mainstream media about wsocial.eu I may do it (if the domains are still available).

Journos, you should cover the fediverse!

I was this close to registering a domain name & creating a splash page to expose why wsocial.eu is such a terrible idea.

Why did I stop?

I have a big hunch that their initiative is going to FLOP. Big time.

A fork of Bluesky that requires government ID to post? Bahahahahaha.

Sure you can have rich and powerful friends helping you launch at Davos but getting people excited about a new social network isn't easy.

I will use my limited time in propping up the fediverse instead ✊

NVSpeech Player with phoneme editor version 1.6 now on GitHub as a release. github.com/tgeczy/NVSpeechPlay…
Release notes:
This release removes all direct linking against libespeak and other phonemizer libraries. Phonemization is now performed via external command-line tools (preferably through STDIN), keeping NV Speech Player and the Phoneme Editor fully GPLv2-compliant while still allowing use of GPLv3 phonemizers such as eSpeak NG as separate programs. Functionality is unchanged for users, but the integration is now cleaner, more flexible, and license-safe.

@spacepup You’re absolutely right — /ɑ̃/ in dans is one vowel, not “a + n”. Native speakers don’t pronounce an actual n there.
I think the reason people suggest mapping it to ɑn isn’t because that’s phonemically correct, but because of how formant synthesizers work. There is no true nasal vowel tract (no velum lowering, no nasal cavity resonator). A nasal vowel would need different formants + nasal anti-resonance, which we don’t currently model as a separate vowel type. So ɑn is a controlled approximation, not a claim about how French works. Later on we might be able to add more engine params like that though, but it requires deeper level changes to its actual sound.

New phoneme editor that supports custom phonemizers via the command-line. This will begin the work of using other phonemizers than ESpeak, like Gruut, ETC. Please note that because of how we split chunks now, since ESpeak is ran through commandline arguments, there may be a slight pause when processing larger files. However, a new "phonemizer settings..." dialog has been added with a few templates so you can switch to another phonemizer than ESpeak.
This also means that V6 will be the first to get a release on GitHub, as it's no longer violating GPL2 to GPLv3, and frees SpeechPlayer from only and directly using ESpeak. Finding a phonemizer that's also multilingual though? Big challenge.
Note that we introduced a new symbol in the IPA output, ||, (two vertical bars) to indicate a pause. You can force a pause via IPA by inserting this, though.

I am reading Anthropic's new "Constitution" for Claude. It is lengthy, thoughtful, thorough...and delusional.

Throughout this document, Claude is addressed as an entity with decision-making ability, empathy, and true agency. This is Anthropic's framing, but it is a dangerous way to think about generative AI. Even if we accept that such a constitution would govern an eventual (putative, speculative, improbable) sentient AI, that's not what Claude is, and as such the document has little bearing on reality.

Does anyone have a copy of the Minute Marker tape produced by Brayton and Sons Productions in the early 90's? It was a twenty-minute timer on a tape. There were different drum sounds for fifteen, thirty, and forty-five seconds past each minute, then each minute had claps counting the minutes. One side had a tick every second along with all the other sounds, the other side omitted the ticks. I never had or even saw a copy of the tape, all I ever heard was a promo for it he put in Playback Magazine, audio attached.

The Matrix.org Foundation

the options for inviting someone to a chatroom are either by matrix ID (if they already have one), or by email (where they will get an email invite that should resolve to a matrix invite once they sign up, although it's quite fragile), or by linking the room via matrix.to - e.g. "come to matrix.to/#/#matrix:matrix.org". matrix.to should work pretty well; what problems did you see? is this to an invite-only room or a public chatroom?

I assume I am not the only one feeling this way, but I feel like I have gottten way more lazy with the release of AI.
Take coding, for example. Instead of going but hunting myself, I just ask claude: "Hey, can you find the bugs in this project for me?". I really feel lazy lol, and I want to change that.
Take writing as well. many times, I will plug something I wrote into things such as chat gpt and ask it to correct spelling and such for me, which is bad for my brain activity. It makes me think less, and I do not like it.

Yeah. I get that. The fact my concentration span decreases + that AI does a lot of shit for me and I put less and less effort into understanding is a problem. I also realise that I have quite the double standart. I dislike Gen AI for many things like Vibe Coding and Music generation shit, for example, but on the other side I use it daily, often also for accessibility reasons. I absolutely get the problem.

I frequently delete the memories, and also changed the personality, which results in it thinking it would need to point it out everytime, e.g. I say: Tell it like it is; don't sugar-coat responses. And each time it points something out it's like, here is result XY, totally straight forward and serious, no talking around etc. Bit difficult to explain since I'm mainly using it in german. Yes I know, good prompting and such, but well what can I do if the AI's just dumb in the 1st place.

Well, I feel the same sometimes. For example i use AI for vibecoding because I don't have so much time to learn programming and I think that If I will try to do it myself it will newer be done. But i create music and I dont delegate this to AI. To be fair, I tryed suno for fun but I don't distribute suno creations as my music. I sometimes use AI for translating my text from slovak to english but here I realize that by doing this I lost my ability to write in English. BTW this text is not corrected by AI. At the other end, I am translating NVDA and I dont want to delegate this to AI at all. And yes, sometimes I am just lazy. For example I need to take some medicaments in various times during a day. I have to create 11 dayli events to be notified. I throw the instructions to gpt and downloaded just the ics file, imported to the calendar and it works. I realize that AI spent electricity and water to just doing simple text file for me.
