Raspberry Pi 500 Computer Launches with the Official Raspberry Pi Monitor https://lxer.com/module/newswire/ext_link.php?rid=348562
The Fenrir screen reader has moved. The new repository, where development is continuing, is located at:
https://git.stormux.org/storm/fenrir
There have been some major changes with more to come. One thing that will affect existing users is, there is no longer a fenrir-daemon separate from the main launcher. It now launches in the background using just "fenrir" with the old option to run in the foreground now a flag. So to launch and keep Fenrir in the foreground:
fenrir -fThis means those relying on service files for systemd or runit, you will need to update your service file for the new version. The fenrir-git package available from the AUR is already updated for the new version. If you use a package manager such as yay to install and update fenrir, you may want to remove the existing cached package before upgrading:
rm -rf ~/.cache/yay/fenrir-git
yay -S fenrir-gitThere will be a stable release coming hopefully later this month. Thee has been lots of refactoring and code cleanup over the last couple weeks.
If you are interested in contributing to Fenrir, pull requests are welcome or contact me if you would like to be added directly to the project. Both python coders and documentation writers are needed.

Storm Dragon pushed changes to the testing branch of the audiogame-manager project Small bug fix. Hopefully working now for creating the settings.dat file.
Things I never thought I'd say: "Wow! This Happy Meal thing has audio description!!" Um, *WOW*! Yes, we're in our 40s, but we still get the toys in the Happy Meal when we get it for our doggo. @TheZooLady is like, "I can't make sense out of this thing! It's just two cubes." So I find the little QR code thingy and scan it. It takes me to the web page, with a "Let's play button, and my first thought is, "Well, I might be able to make some sense of this if I use magnification and squint real hard." Surprise: There's actually *gasp* accessibility settings! And one of them is audio description! Totally wild! And the buttons are even labelled! I am rather impressed by what I've seen.

Storm Dragon pushed changes to the testing branch of the audiogame-manager project I think I found a way to enter the user name for Side Parfty score boards.
I can't seem to set my scoreboard name in SideParty with wine. The window takes focus, but apparently the keyboard doesn't enter anything. Pressing enter to get to the next screen works, but since I don't have a name set, no score posting for me. I went to see if I could set it in the file by hand, but it is encrypted unfortunately. ☹️
We really need an audio game announcement service for the fediverse. I wonder how hard it would be to automate something like that.
