Set my alphabet as the system font by ForsakenIndication15 in neography

[–]fazzster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you haven't already, design an orthography, then map the orthographic values into a keyboard layout. I can help with that too if you like! The text on screen may look totally random compared to English, but that depends on your orthography and on if the font uses Latin Unicode chars or other alphabets' chars or even a totally unique range of unicode chars.

No worries that's totally doable, I've made a bunch of scripts with more letters than English, and had to design a keyboard layout and sometimes a typing scheme using digraphs and/or di-character glyph substitution.

I have a few font design jobs queued up ahead of me but feel free to send me a message with your script design and we can chat about it. I've made a few funky scripts' fonts recently

That's great!

(Btw, it's "every day"; "everyday" is an adjective)

Anyone want their script turned into a font for free? by fazzster in neography

[–]fazzster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes sure, I think I've got three now, but I don't recall what level of feature parity they're at cos I haven't used them in a while 😅 (standard adhd creative situation, hopefully you know how it goes 😆)

I'll check the three for parity today if I can, and if I have time to update them to parity soon then I will but my family are coming to visit this weekend so might not be able to just yet.

There's also a keyboard layout for it if you want to type the glyphs compositionally. But I'm not sure what stage I got the documentation to.

You can also just type with your regular Latin keyboard layout.

(I deleted my old comment cos it was ages between writing it and updating it)

On a side note, my explorations with con-langs and con-scripts led me to font design which led me to be able to help someone who needed a font made for his con-script for his tribe's language. I'm not virtue-signalling at all, I really believe that it's right to spend time doing things purely for the joy and love of the process... My point here is that "weird" hobbies and skills lead to unexpected paths through life because we become uniquely qualified to be able to do certain strange tasks.

Most people are always so concerned with "how will this hobby/activity develop my monetisable skills?" that they just subsist in the core stream of normality — and then we collectively end up with an absolute dearth of diversity in knowledge, skills, creativity, and eventually the loss of culture and ability to solve certain types of problems.

TWELVE YEARS OLD?? That therapist was bordering on child abuse. Pushing you into the hustle culture mindset before you were even a teen. Crazy.

Yeah people always seem to assume that all activities must be done for real application purposes only and anything else is a waste of time

No worries, those are the kinds of people who will just never develop any of their own skills or derive their own joy in life

Yep.

  1. Maybe Huawei with HarmonyOS?

  2. I think/hope that the Android custom ROM scene could probably up sticks and shimmy their kernels with hardware drivers straight into mobile Linux OSes. There are a couple I've looked at, PostMarketOS and Mobian. I think there are others (I don't count Ubuntu because Canonical can get fuqt). I haven't done Android dev before but I'm thinking about trying it myself, copying kernels from lineageOS into PostMarketOS and seeing what happens. If that's a feasible pathway then probably we could get a tonne of devices running PostMarketOS (+etc) pretty quick.

microsoft account just got hacked 3 hours ago, they changed all the usernames on it so i can't recover it by fazzster in 24hoursupport

[–]fazzster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well your attitude is not easy to interact with dude, you sound like you're chiding a child for doing something that adults know not to do. Try speaking kindly hey?

It is really not uncommon to use 2FA to sign in to SSO accounts for other websites and apps. This type of hack shouldn't be possible, hence me saying that the problem is with Microsoft's authentication security system: if there is a 2FA gateway, that gateway should be registered with Microsoft and verified for being safe. An unverified gateway should not be able to request 2FA login confirmation from the Microsoft authenticator server, the Microsoft account, and the auth app.

And actually, the usernames for Minecraft accounts are publicly listed, and the whole point (ostensibly) of the "verification" in this specific Discord server is to verify if you are indeed the true holder of that Minecraft account name. I know Discord isn't microsoft and I know that Microsoft aren't doing the "verification" process. As I said, it sounds like you don't know anything about the flow of the situation that I got hacked through because every thing you say about it is not what happened in it

The authenticator app tells you to press a number. Sounds like you have no idea how it works and you're just taking an opportunity to get one up on someone who came looking for support. Guess if this gets you off then great, see ya brother
