Every once in a while I get CIFS: VFS: No writable handle in writepages rc=-9 and something in my kernel dies. Great Linux stability there, especially since this is Ubuntu 24.04 and it'll be supported for a long time. There's a patch, but the person submitting it didn't do it properly and it got rejected, so the bug stays. My only options are to either upgrade my kernel or patch it with a patch I don't even know will work.

Looks like tdsr works under Cygwin. Calling timeBeginPeriod(1) speeds it up, so does modifying NVDA to send speech received through the API immediately rather than waiting for the next core cycle.

Adding 10 lines of code to MAME allows me to use a lot of the menu without trying to OCR the screen. This is what open source gets you. It would never be accepted upstream since it depends on nvdaControllerClient, but I don't care about that.
