   As a TTS daily user, sometimes I'm even fine with espeak quality for system messages. But one thing concerns me more than beauty of the voice - the ability to process mixed language text and abbreviations. And I don't see these pr

   Great site! The only complain I have is that they use http links :)

   So, the problem was not inside the reader or the driver. Misleading article and grey text :-/

   Yes, please. We don't need any shades of grey on textual content.

   Me too, for more than a decade. I never trust anything that could not be physically unpowered. Long before IoT, IPMI and smart-stuff attacks became a thing. The more I learn about hw/sw implants the less I believe in device security. (

   Staying away from Cloudflare and their products for good. The only thing they succeeded for me is scaring away customers (and driving them mad in the process), and myself. Just in case anyone from CF is reading this.

   Yeah, a phone is an endless source of possibilities: every auth SMS is (not "can be", not "may be", but "by design") intercepted and logged. Every app can be breached remotely. Every interface, especially wirel

    My choice are 8cm DVDs of decent quality. And inability to quickly overwrite/damage your data is a bonus.

    No, we're here with you. I'm also wondering if being responsible for storing and using passwords is THAT BIG OF A DEAL??? Even mathematically, probabilities of two failing points are adding. I've been locked away from mail, b

    So, apparently, vimeo has better support than youtube (not informative, but at least they DO something). Duly noted.

    Thanks to the author who took the time to bring up the question that was bothering me for years. Especially when poor program logic messed up time critical processes. And the shutdown process in Linux is very messed up. For example, I'

    Came here for positive stories. :) Every time I tried turning things I like into a job turned them into things I hate. ( As soon as the "must" factor is introduced, "fun" evaporates. That's how I stopped being a pai

    Came back specially to say I agree with both of you and many others - there's a huge difference between playing music and programming music. I prefer another way, when possible: record sheet live (midi, or it, xm, etc) and then edi

    You've never (fully) used Telegram, have you?

    Yeah, it's all pretty doable. For me it's: - Linux -> Psi+ (also available for Windows) - Android -> Conversations All FOSS.

    While being "techy" I too restrict Conversations from running in background. Moreover, it's annoying and dangerous to keep XMPP running (reconnecting, giving out your metadata) while roaming over different networks, so I&#x27

    Domain name isn't your property and can be taken away on a whim. It is BAD for ID. It's NOT in your possession, you only rent it. If your domain gets taken away, unpaid, hacked, banned - you're done. Eventually I even stopped

    Thanks a lot! Personally, I don't think it's propaganda. It's a valid material for analisys. It's very regretful how many bloggers (especially youtroopers) are promoting chinese online stores. I mean, how for a few dirty

    I wonder why after all these years after PCs became cheap and powerful trackers didn't wipe out all hardware drum machnies (if not everything else)? (note: I include DAWs and other MIDI sw there as well) Maybe because of tactile feelin

    History clearly shows us about tenth of all updates from Microsoft are bogus, if not malicious. I only install those I downloaded and checked manually.

    Pretty much what we've been doing to Windows since... always? At least I did it to win7 (last winblows I used), it was totaly legit, but I love the idea of a working totally offline machine.
