How does the Shadow DOM appear in the accessibility tree?
Browsers flatten the shadow tree when building the accessibility tree. Flattening removes the accessibility boundary of the shadow root and exposes the internal nodes as if they were normal children in the accessibility tree, not the DOM tree.

арахнофобия - это расстройство и его лечат. но в ходе лечения арахнофобии людям не рассказывают, что каракурты безопасны, их нужно развести в доме как можно больше, играть с ними и чесать им спинки.
а вот с исламистами почему то не так.

Today I checked elementary OS's website, because I was curious if elementary OS 8.1 had released yet. And nothing. It turns out I just checked two hours early, because it just released right now!
It brings fractional display scaling. Finally! I have been whining about this for way too long. And now it's here. The Wayland session is now the default session, and a lot of other goodies, and as always with elementary, a huge focus on accessibility, which couldn't be a bigger deal.
Huge props to the @elementary team, and congratulations to them!
My laptop is giving me the side-eye right now. It knows what's about to happen. :D
Viewpoint 2.0 just has been released.
The update includes support for Gemini 3, improved speed, the removal of the deprecated 2.0 models, better PDF support, drag-and-drop support, and more.

Sad to hear that Chris Rea passed away today. I haven't heard Driving Home for Christmas yet this year, so I'm dusting off a cover I wrote and recorded a few years ago on a fundraiser album. This version is what might happen if a blind person decided to drive home for Crimbo, with everything you're hearing being done by actual blind people. Well, everything apart from the driving (didn't have the budget for a car or good lawyers).
Credits:
David Eagle did the lead vocal.
My guy Dwight Brady did the angry drivers/traumatic adlibs, was also the tiny child at the end.
@technowitch was the police dispatcher.
Ché Martin was the swat team commander.
Satauna Howery was the news reader near the end.
Dwight again on drums.
Me on bass, all the button-pushy production stuffs and writing stupid lyrics (before AI could do that BTW, mentioning so you know who to blame).
@daygar on piano/keys/strings.
Chris Faelnar on guitar.
All told, the production went to 7 countries.
And all that to say, RIP Chris, you bloody legend.
Enjoy! x
Lyrics:
I'm driving home for Christmas
Oh I can't wait to feel those faces
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah
Driving even though I'm blind
And it may seem wrong
But I will get there if I push on
It's like the end of days
When I'm borrowing your car
Driving home for Christmas
It's gonna take some time, but I'll get there...
Caused a 10 mile tailback
Oh I hear sirens all around
But this is kinda freeing, yeah
Making people go to ground
So I facetime you
'cos Aira said they can't guide me through
Don't fear, it's just me
Borrowing your car
And driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas, making memories...
I hear the shout of a driver next to me
He's up in flames...
I made it through the tailbacks
There's a police convoy in bound
I'm driving home for Christmas, yeah
Laying waste to every town
Now I'm on the news
There's helicopters, a swat team too
I hope you'll forgive me
Borrowing your car
And driving home for Christmas
Driving home for Christmas, with a thousand casualties...
Say a prayer for the family next to me
They've all been mamed...

Garmin “Autoland” aka “Safe Return,” has been used for the first time, successfully.
Autoland is an emergency system, where a passenger can hit a big red button if the pilot is in incapacitated, which causes the airplane to make emergency radio calls, navigate to a nearby airport with a long runway and medical facilities, and conduct an instrument approach and landing, followed by a full shutdown when the aircraft comes to a stop on the runway. Large screens and voice announcements keep passengers updated along the way.
The nature of the medical emergency on Saturday, involving a King Air with an unconscious pilot, has not been disclosed.

Would love to hear more details about what exactly happened, sounds amazing!
"We look forward to sharing additional details at the appropriate time", says Garmin. Well, I hope I don't miss that! :)
The problem with saying "Linux doesn't work" is that it's incorrect.
Folks are always surprised to hear that I've been doing music, videos, and gaming on Linux for decades.
Biggest thing is that I *only* buy hardware that works on Linux, and I *only* use software that works on Linux.
What you mean when you say "Linux doesn't work" is that "Linux doesn't work for me." But that's not rage-baity enough to attract attention.
A problem I have with every "I tried Linux for two weeks and could never make it work" video thing is that folks position themselves as the default, everyday computer user.
But they're not! Jeeze folks! They're already knee deep in Windows/Mac software if they have a YouTube channel where they make videos on Windows/Mac!
These folks have production workflows that they don't want to change. If that's not you, you can disregard their rage-bait!
I don't "make Linux and FOSS work for me." Years ago, I *chose* to work with Linux and FOSS.
I just switched, and if things required Windows or a Mac, I didn't do those things. I did other things instead.
My priorities welcomed that choice. Yours might not. That's OK! But it doesn't mean Linux can't do it.
It'd be like saying "my bicycle can't haul a tractor, therefore bicycles are worthless." You'd sound absurd. That's what they do. Because rage sells.
