I'm not sure that what you're looking for exists, at lest it dosn't seem so from this article [blog.michaelamerz.com/wordpres] -- I haven't checked in the documentation and repositories for the distro I use (Open SUSE).

I am trying to find a good screen reader and text to speech feature on GNU/Linux :gnu: :linux: just like the on that is built into MacOS :mac: .

I want to be able to highlight text on any application (e.g. word processor or website) and then click a short cut key to hear it read out to me.

I appreciate your suggestions.

Do you want to see spam and hate speech off the Fediverse? Think there must be a better way than continuing to click Mute and Block all the time?

Hierarchy of Failures in Problem Resolution

So you've got a problem to solve. That can go wrong at any one point. Or, conversely, you've got to get all of this right:

Failures of awareness. "The first step is admitting you've got a problem".

Failures of diagnosis

Failures of etiology

Failures of objective

Failures of redress

Failures of communication

Failures of execution

Failures of assessment

@schestowitz That's a nice writeup on the Librem 5. Maybe a ship date will be coming soon. I've got one on pre-order.

This began as a comment on a poem on another blog (TheFeatheredSleep). I told Candice I thought it might be able to stand alone. She said, β€œDO IT!”

I discovered my first hidden camera at an AirBnB last week in Yerevan, Armenia. Always scan the wifi when you get to a new place!! #surveillance #nmap #privacy #dystopia #security #badposture
