Dürreflaute bei AKWs? Wie ist das besser als die „Dunkelflaute“? https://www.tagesschau.de/ausland/europa/rumaenien-donau-100.html

Stromkrise durch Niedrigwasser der Donau - Rumänien sprengt Felsen

Rumänien greift wegen des niedrigen Wasserstands der Donau zu ungewöhnlichen Mitteln: Mit einer Sprengung im Fluss soll mehr Wasser zum AKW Cernavoda geleitet werden. Dort, in Ungarn und in Serbien wird zum Stromsparen aufgerufen.

“Our Chief Revenue Officer is a big fan of AI!” Sure he is! Because his task is to make more bucks, not to make stuff more accessible. #BetterStartQueuing

I really value usability testing with disabled people, but I think sending them into an unmediated hellhole of easy to find issues like unlabeled buttons and losing focus is cruel. It is like sending someone over a street and see if they are hit to test if the traffic lights work. You can […]

Was html5doctor.com hacked or are they now doing ads for PayPal and Casinos? 😉 I guess that’s what I get for never unsubscribing to RSS feeds. /cc @SteveFaulkner @rem

I wonder if any windows screen readers read this symbol, and if so, what would it say? Symbol now: ⋮ And that was the symbol. For those interested, it is three vertical dots and macOS announces it as “vertical ellipsis“, which is not too useful.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@gvwilson/116997366488785600 Ah, the “at least he built the Autobahn” phase of “AI” arguments. Some very limited upsides do not justify the abhorrent impacts.

What is this new thing where Google Docs just signs you out in the middle of doing stuff? So user hostile, which does not say a lot as the whole experience is pretty mid.

So… How long do you stay in a phone queue until you resign to the fact that they just put you in phone purgatory and forgot about you? Asking for a friend who has been put on hold at 5:30 minutes into the call and it is now 14:00 minutes into the call. :-/

[CSD Berlin] Honestly speechless about the attack on my queer friends at CSD Berlin yesterday. My brain cannot understand how people can be so full of hate. But it can understand the grief and sadness of the queer community. Sending love and thoughts out to everyone. You’re not alone […]

Man, SC 2.5.7 Dragging Movements (AA) is one of the more gnarly WCAG 2.2 SCs that really makes you redo certain interfaces. Case in point: Using a drag handle to change the size of a text field. It is keyboard accessible, but it does not have a single pointer equivalent. And apart from adding […]

Vom gleichen Medium das „Fahrradstraße“ in Anfürhrungsstrichen schreibt, werden Autoparkplätze „Elternhaltestelle“, natürlich ohne Anführungsstriche. https://www.ak-kurier.de/akkurier/www/artikel/173715-verlaengerung-der-vollsperrung-in-wissen--elternhaltestelle-bleibt-unzugaenglich

Verlängerung der Vollsperrung in Wissen: Elternhaltestelle bleibt unzugänglich

Die Bauarbeiten an der Bergstraße in Wissen dauern länger als erwartet. Eine Haltestelle für Eltern wird zum Schulbeginn nicht verfügbar sein.

I think WCAG SC shortnames should summarize the requirement in the Success Criterion. For example 1.1.1 should not be “Non-Text Content” but “Text alternatives for non-text content”. Maybe it’s too much to ask, but there seems to be an opportunity to at least fix “Focus Not Obscured” which does […]

No, OpenAI's new magic models did not autonomously hack Huggingface. Per OpenAI's PR blog post (https://openai.com/index/hugging-face-model-evaluation-security-incident/): "This incident occurred during an internal evaluation which prompts models to pursue advanced exploitation using complex […]

If you are a member of Codeberg e.V. please take the time to participate in the poll that was just sent out about banning vibe-coded projects on Codeberg. Please agree to the proposal. Slop can live on GitHub.

Fakten, die sich irgendwie niemand mehr traut zu sagen: Merkel hatte mit "Wir schaffen das!" Recht & hat rechtmäßig gehandelt. Corona war & ist gefährlich & die Maßnahmen waren größtenteils richtig. Die Impfung war sicher & hat Leben gerettet. Die Mehrheit will mehr Tempo bei der Energiewende.

Was Jens Spahn privat macht ist mir egal (sofern legal). Auch wenn es seine (Doppel)Moral zeigt. Was mich interessiert ist die Strafverfolgung von Deals mit Gesundheits-Schutzausrüstung in seiner Amtszeit als Gesundheitsminister. Das ist was zählt. Lasst euch nicht ablenken.

It’s always funny to me when Ex-Chrome people complain about the web Chrome monoculture brought us, while having worked actively to bring about that monoculture. I mean, good that you recognize the problem, but also, many people warned you and you cast the warnings aside.

Writing accessibility reports in a WYSIWYG editor is like doing the work with your hands behind your back. Give me Markdown, HTML, and useful snippets. At some point I will roll my own! I mean, having a table cannot be the most outlandish wish in a report, can it? Or a good way to display […]

RE: https://legal.social/@ramichaelseidlitz/116929833682160184 This is what Apple does not want to do because it means giving access to user data in a big way. Unfortunately with how “AI” pilled the big companies are, we have to move to other offerings like GrapheneOS. Still, people will, on […]

Stop using aria-label when your link/button already has an accessible name, doubly so when the content of the aria-label is just the same as the content of the link/button.

Me: “The ’AI’ added wrong information to the image description. That’s why you can’t fully trust it.” LinkedIn Bro: “Yeah, you have to have a person checking it.” Me: “So how is it better to create a wrong text and then have someone checking it, when checking it takes as much time as creating […]
