- Comment on Google hit with £7B claim over search engine dominance • The Register 3 weeks ago:
Even though Google Search is turning to crap, most people would still choose Google Search if prompted to choose a search engine.
As for Google Play Store integration, this might lead to Android phones having to choose a store in install like picking a browser for Windows.

Agreed. A massive overhaul just introduces more problems. I wish they did the same with the OS updates.

I miss the days US politicians took the effort to hide where their international illegal campaign contributions came from.

I don’t know how all states operate but they have access to police reports that have your contact info. If it doesn’t have your number then background reports.
- Comment on One car accident, endless spam calls 3 months ago:
These calls might be from lawyers. Check your mail and see if you are getting mail from lawyers. They are all trying to beat each other to get you to sign with them.

I saw someone have a Snorlax bed on IG. I think they got the inspiration from the Totoro bed.

No negatives listed on the Wiki page. Are there any? Does potting increase the likely hood of overheating?

Also the “Think about the children!” states but force birth on minors, don’t give healthcare or food to kids, and vote in pedophiles.

Stanford University has made hundreds of millions of dollars on licensing alone. That doesn’t even include the billions they got from donations.
They can afford to fight this. What they do get just giving up is the donations they get from conservatives. This is a business decision.

If we hit these AI companies with targeted suing, like how Scientology got their way with the IRS, maybe we then they can listen to not steal our shit.
The MPAA and RIAA have created all these laws and used our own government againat us. Maybe we can use these same laws and do the same.

Thanks for the info. The Accessible name calculation page is really interesting.

I looked through the beehaw instance and I saw what you had screenshot. You are right. It is not your browser, it is the instance.
Currently they currently on 0.18.4. Infosec.pub is currently on 0.19.3. Maybe that’s the issue…

I think their might be something wrong with your browser or something. I tried the code blocks using spaces, tabs, and backticks, and I didn’t have the
imgproblem you had.I also checked from a different account on a different instance on a different browser this post and I can see the link.

I put a link after the quote. That’s the source.

Yes you can use both but I’ve seen some front end developers blank out
altaltogether when they are usingfigcaption.I did not find this practice in MDN Web Docs but I found it in an other place:
If you’re using an image that has a caption, it may not need alt text if the caption contains all of the relevant visual information.
This doesn’t have to do with
figcaptionbut a blind user in Stack Overflow suggested you should empty outaltfor actionable objects.If you can interact with the image to perform actions (click, etc.), or if the icon conveys an information, then you must set a non-empty alt. It must be a function description, not a objective description of the image.
Example 1: “Go back” is good, while “Blue left arrow” is bad.
I was just wondering what Mozilla’s method was for finding these images and if they took other things in to consideration like decorative images.
- Comment on Mozilla Firefox new alt-text generator powered by "fully private on-device AI model" 6 months ago:
What you quoted is for the feature to add in images to PDFs. It doesn’t work for existing PDFs with images already.
In the future, we want to be able to provide an alt text for any existing image in PDFs, except images which just contain text (it’s usually the case for PDFs containing scanned books).
That’s how I read it atleaat. I could be wrong.
- Comment on Mozilla Firefox new alt-text generator powered by "fully private on-device AI model" 6 months ago:
It is for websites. This is most useful for readers that don’t display images. The feature for websites should be added for version 130. I’m on Developer Edition and I am currently on 127. It will be implemented for PDFs in the future after that.
- Comment on Mozilla Firefox new alt-text generator powered by "fully private on-device AI model" 6 months ago:
But even for a simple static page there are certain types of information, like alternative text for images, that must be provided by the author to provide an understandable experience for people using assistive technology (as required by the spec)
I wonder if this includes websites that use
