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.)
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)
like, what the fuck.
the song fuckin' rules. the FULL song. the whole fuckin' ALBUM fuckin' rules. Like, fuck the spedup bits of Spaceman, the actual song itself fuckin' slaps like hell.
When I listened to the whole album I was just fuckin' blown away by how good the whole thing was like oh my GOD it was way better than the bit the advert used.
Absolutely criminal people didn't recognise how good that album was at the time.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
