Microsoft now owns, or will soon own, one of the best text-to-speech engines for blind power-users, through its acquisition of Nuance. But the code has been abandoned for years. It seems unlikely that this TTS engine is a valuable asset for Microsoft. So let's petition them to open-source it. https://www.change.org/p/microsoft-open-source-eti-eloquence (No, I didn't start the petition, but I'm in agreement with it.)
this is your periodic reminder that there's no such thing as a supermoon

I wanna see NO MORE than ONE (1) ps/2 socket on that case! NO MORE.
And if there isn't two 3.5" drives, there had BETTER BE AT LEAST ONE, AND MAYBE A 5.25"!
okay yeah the entire album slaps, the only song I don't much like is the penultimate one is your soul for sale but otherwise fuckin' all of them rule. good album, always was.
four songs in to the album and i still love them all.
I am sure there'll be one I'll be like "eeehhh I think I'll skip that one".
Even on United By Fate, by Rival Schools, quite literally one of my favourite albums ever, there's several tracks I skip every time. But if I like at least half the tracks, then I consider it a good album. My absolute faves, I like at least 75% of the tracks.
I haven't yet found an album I like 100% of the tracks all the time. But it could happen!
(this thread brought to you by me listening to the entire album Boy with the X Ray Eyes again fro the first time in decades and i just... fuck i still love the whole fuckin' thing)
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
