Okay this is wild. So there was this third-party screen reader for the Mac called Vosh. It's recently been picked up by some one who has had enough of Apple's neglect of the Mac and canned responses. And I understand that. But also I kinda want to ask why not Linux, but I understand that as well, that everything else they like about the Mac except the screen reader.
December 10th, Take T tea calendar.
Today’s tea is Rommipommi (rum bomb). It contains green and white tea, apple, sugared pineapple, natural rum aroma, marigold and cornflower.
I’m a sucker for rum. The taste is a bit subtle, but yeah, there is a tiny aftertaste of rum. It’s not bad.

가끔 생성형 AI를 두고 쓰는 사람이 문제지 기술 자체는 아무 문제가 없다는 요지의 이야기를 하는 사람들이 있는데 왜 문제가 없어요...무단으로 크롤링 된 수 많은 저작물들에 대한 아무런 책임도 보상도 하고 있지 않은데🙄학술적 목적으로 끝났으면 모르겠지만 상업의 영역으로 나온 이상 문제가 없다는 말을 어떻게 할 수가 있지 예전에도 말한 적 있지만 작가들의 생성형 AI에 대한 부정적인 입장을 러다이트 운동에 비유하는 것도 틀렸다고 생각함, 단순히 기술 발전에 의한 효율화와 노동력 대체라는 관점으로 보고 싶은 건 옹호론자들 이겠지

당장 이 바닥에서도 잊을만 하면 다시 회자되는 '위선' 타령만 해도 그렇다(매번 위선이라도 해라 같은 씹기로 소비되곤 하는 그것) = 전통적으로 여겨지는 '선'이 현실의 지형에서 노견한 무력함을 통해 그 부정을 내면화한 결과라고 보는 게 타당하지 않을까? 돌려 말하면, 아무리 선을 메세지로써 접하였다 한들, 무엇이 악인지를 규정하도록 허락하지도, 전통적 가치관에서 명백히 악으로 규정할만한 무언가가 등장해도 응징되지 않는 현실과 마주하는 사람이 내면화하는 도덕률이 무엇이겠는가는 것;
Ugh, two strikes on things for which I've been waiting a long time today!
First, I ordered a replacement stand for a speaker a couple of months ago, the original having been somehow lost in the move between countries. What arrived today was not the stand but an individual foot that is part of that model of stand. There's a long lead time on these parts because they typically have to be sourced from the US, so this is a PITA.
Second, I ordered some light fittings and bulbs to replace some failing and obsolete lighting in the new home over 6 weeks ago. The vendor has been terrible at communicating or responding to me about cancelling the order, which I've attempted multiple time. I wound up issuing a dispute with my payment processor and wouldn't you know, later that day suddenly the order gets shipped! It arrived today with the wrong color light fittings, so it is going to be even more effort to resolve this than if they had just refunded my order like I'd asked for all along.
Now's a great time to delete your facebook account. You can live life without it.
I'm still on Instagram, but if they ask for this, it's getting deleted.

so maybe i do know who needs to hear this, but if you're convening an event focused on AI guardrails, data #privacy or sovereignty, open source, rights to personal data, etc., maybe vet your platforms?
attendees should not have to consent to a third party platform to infer #identity, train their AI with participation content, or use NIL for their adverts.
srsly - crowdcast, whatsapp, discord, telegram are not private channels, and they do harvest data. walk your talk, folks.

@larmaMarvin W feel free to close this one https://github.com/dino/dino/issues/1802 I would strongly recommend to put it in the FAQs though, I pressume more people with languages with accents will have the same issue.
@gajim same goes for you guys. Accents not working is beause of GTK.
I can confirm the solution worked for both apps Dino and Gajim, the common denominator: GTK.
"저자가 관찰한 남초 커뮤니티 속 '인셀'들의 특징은 여성과의 성적인 관계를 삶의 목적처럼 삼으며 집착하고, 여성과의 성관계를 당연히 누려야 할 권리로 착각한다는 점이다. 사회적 변화로 섹스를 못 하게 된 박탈감이 남초 커뮤니티 전반에서 목격되고, 이로 인해 상처 입은 남성들이 극우적 발상에 쉽게 노출된다는 것이다."
이런 관점에서 그 놈의 고추 사이즈, 집게손가락은 '너, 핵심을 찔렀어'기 되어버린 것이군요. 다만 서평에서도 언급되어 있지만 인셀테러보다 좀 유화적인 접근이긴 해보입니다.

남초 커뮤니티 연구자가 제시한 '청년 남성 극우화' 해법
[서평] <젊은 남성은 왜 분노하는가>
www.ohmynews.com/NWS_Web/View...
저자는 <인셀 테러>에서 로라 베이츠가 주장한 해결책, '입법을 통해 인셀 집단의 여성혐오 범죄를 테러 감시의 영역에 포함하자'는 내용에 반대한다. 그 근거로 기존 반테러 법안이 미국에서 백인 남성보다 다른 인종의 남성을 탄압하는 도구로 악용된 사례를 거론한다. 또한 문제의 남초 커뮤니티 사이트를 차단하는 방식도 적절하지 않다고 주장한다.
