Pro tip: If you send me a message with simply: Hello, hi, hey there, how are you, etc, and I have no unearthly idea who you are, you're probably getting ignored.

I think it's totally fun that we now know what Eloquence version 1 from 1996, and every major version after it, sounds like.

Oh shit. New code just dropped in NVDA's github repo switching SAPI from using it's own audio output mechanism to using NVDA's built-in wave player. Haven't tested it yet, and probably won't get to for a long time, but hopefully this finally gives SAPI the performance boost it deserves.

What annoys me so much about this is that the BrailleSense Six doesn't have this limitation.

it's annoying me, probably more than it should mind you, that the SensePlayer can't use third party Android TTS engines.

If you're on Android and are looking for a good, accessible file explorer app with built-in cloud/ftp/sftp support, or perhaps just looking for an easy way to send files to your phone using an FTP, SFTP, WebDav server or similar, check out Mixplorer. You can buy it on the PlayStore, or if you hunt you'll find a free APK download on the website. It even works on the SensePlayer without too much fuss! Thanks @Aryan for pointing me at this. @simon https://mixplorer.com/

let's not even talk about how awkward it is trying to press capslock right shift right arrow on the GPD pocket, though.

Like, I can physically press the keys just fine, but they don't register! It registres the capslock shift part just fine, but right arrow? Nope, nuh uh, you can slap it all day. However, if I use capslock, right shift, right arrow? It works just fine! Such madness.

That's such a weird, weird limitation that I've never really understood.

not to mention, keyboards these days man, some keyboards won't even let you push certain key combinations. On my GPD pocket, for example, I can't do capslock shift right arrow, the keystroke to go to the next item with object navigation in NVDA.

back in my day, you could assign a key to, like, a one or two modifier wide keystroke. Nuh uh, no longer! Now, to go up and down buffers in an invisible client, for example, you need at least 3, modifiers, unless you want to use alt shift, and then, you use alt shift for that, but then you'd need to use 3 modifiers for some other thing that wanted to use the arrows with some form of global modifier. Because why wouldn't you want to open linked in or snap windows around the place with non-removable hotkeys! Totally going to help me as a blind person to snap windows I can't even see into corners of my in one case, nonexistent monitor.

I just had a really weird thought. What if NVDA had a generic settings ring? You know, like the synth settings ring, but for other random stuff? Kinda like the rotor on iOS or similar. You can choose what settings go in there and then you use one set of finger twisting set of combinations of keys to modify a whole group of settings rather than assigning a bunch of individual settings to multiple different singular finger twistingly complicated hotkeys.

Holy crap you guys. SideParty has been ran almost 2000 times in the timespan of a week. I think SideParty, out of all of the games I've released, has taken off the fastest and furthest.
