No. Windows changes way too often. I think I'll go with mate too if it has applications in menues instead of
just flinging them all over like win10 does.

you don't like windows10? yes true the start menu can be a bit laggy but i fixed that by installing classic
shell. its so much faster than win7! it start up fast like linux does and has done for years.

I wouldn't want eSpeak to sound like Eloquence, and I don't like Windows Ten either. I was just pointing
out what Linux doesn't have much of. If old seasoned users of Linux cannot have patience with the new
people that would rather test the waters rather than jump in and possibly drown, then indeed, Linux won't
attract new users, and therefore won't get much better or gain much more innovation..

hi
Well, I tried. I'm done trying to help people who just won't be reasoned
with. You want everything windows has, for free. You don't want to have
to actually work to improve stuff if it's not as polished as you'd like.
You complain instead. I've used windows 10. Several times. I'm not in
the least impressed. I've spent four years improving espeak's us english
in the hope that the whining would stop. Instead, it's changed from
"espeak sucks" to "I want espeak to sound like eloquence" or "I want a
commercial human sounding voice because apple and windows have them"
Yes, they do. But try reading a book with them. That human sounding
voice doesn't suddenly sound so great. I've said my piece, I'm done. Any
further messages I see in this thread, I'll delete unless they're from
joanie or another linux user I actually know. Any windows users can rant
all they like. I've had enough
Thanks

For your slight information, I am not a gov blink. Nope, I actually abhore ADRS for how they destroy
independence. I ordered the Vario Ultra 20 for $2300. And how, may I ask, is Linux accessibility "far
ahead of what we Apple and Windows folk" get? Y'all don't even have a good way of making music, OCR,
good TTS engines, and fewer games than the Mac even has. I find that you Linux fans assume a lot. :)

Sorry for the upcoming rant, but some of this nonsense I'm seeing drove
me to it.
I can still build an 8-core x86_64 computer for less money than it
currently costs to purchase even the least expensive open source
braille displays, which are still costly prototypes. Once braille
becomes as affordable as say for instance a computer monitor, then
maybe more people will have the means to code for them, and braille
won't be just for lucky blind government entitlement babies anymore.
Until then, braille is always going to be too expensive to get enough
people working on to improve it. Sorry, that's just the way it is. And
no, I didn't use braille back in the days when I had access to Windows
either, because I'm not a blind government baby who expected all the
expensive stuff to be handed to me like I'm entitled to it or
something, which is also why I use Linux now and help where I can to
raise awareness and to contribute where I can to its development and
wider usage by *all* people, not just entitlement blinks. No, Linux
isn't "catching up" as you Microsoft and Apple lovers so eloquently put
it. It's here, and it's far ahead of anything else you could be using.
So get used to it.
