I'm running Windows 11 23 H2, the September build of JAWS 2024 and NVDA 2024.4 RC1.
For years, I had successfully used version 6 of this app with JAWS with no accessibility issues. As it had been a long time since the app alerted me about any updates, I went to wordpress.com to see if newer versions were available and, as I suspected, there was a new version, that being 8.0.4. I downloaded and installed it over my older 6.0.3 installation. After installing it, I noticed that, while the JAWS virtual cursor was enabled, JAWS was not able to detect any readable text, even after maximizing the window and doing a screen refresh. The only way I could get the virtual cursor to behave in an expected way was to activate the touch cursor and click on an element with numpad enter. This would allow me to read text using the virtual cursor and everything would appear to be back to normal until I exit and restart the app, once again with no readable text. NVDA exhibits similar results.
I decided to uninstall v8.0.4 and reinstall v6.0.3. After doing this, JAWS couldn't even read any of the screens, even with the touch cursor. Has anyone seen this behavior with the Wordpress.com app and are there any possible solutions?

@brian_hartgen @DerryLawlor one thing I can't see from the sales literature is if you can download extra voices on the device itself, given that it has wifi, or if you need to do that with a computer.
Also is there a way of adding content wirelessly outside of something like a talking book service?
I'm happy enough with my old rockbox stuff for me, but I always like to know what the things in the market can do.
October 25, 2024 – Apple confirms new Macs are coming

The local timeline, is the place I'd call your city, you live in a city, meet people, etc. Now, the federated timeline is where all the softwares connect. Say on a scale that is, different countries connected, who each have their cities, and houses, or neighbourhoods. So yes, there are four privacy options: unlisted, which are posts that will show up on your profile but not in the public/federated timeline, there are local_only posts, that will only show up on your instance's local timeline, the city, and not all instances have those, so it's a bit different, then you have followers-only, which only shows the posts to those who follow you or you follow. and they can't boost them. Then, there is direct, which is like a DM. the local_only option I mentioned above, is like an emoji, it is not a standard option in general. For example, my sintance and software, give the ability to only show public posts in my profile, not even unlisted, however, Mastodon does not have this option, but I am not using Mastodon. All these different softwares connect via a protocol, called activity pub. Say like, the internet connects the world. Haha I hope this helped.

It occurs to me, and not for the first time, that gift retailers are amongst the worst offenders for gendering.
The number of sites with "Gifts for him" and "Gifts for her", , is enough to make my teeth itch, and then I come across things like this and I want to scream:
"Higgs Boson coasters - gifts for him - Fathers' Day Gift - God Particle - Science gift - Particle Physics - Physics gift - boxed gift set"
#WTAF?
The latter. The idea that a physics gift is for men, or (for another common example) that self-care/spa products are for women, is just excruciating - never mind that the classifications/filters ignore people who are NB entirely.

Upscaler 1.4.0 was just released! Upscaler is an app that allows you to upscale and enhance images, be it your photos, digital art, and more.
This release introduces scaling factors, allowing you to upscale between a factor of 2 and 4. The image loading system has been reworked to decrease overall memory consumption. The preview image now has a drop shadow to better make the image distinguishable. Lastly, it fixes a bug where small window sizes made the preview image disappear.

Having one of those wildly serendipitous days. Long story short, turns out one of my former coworkers from my last capitalist job has been prototyping open source property management software for co-ops. I, for probably obvious reasons, am also interested in making open source property management software for co-ops. My former co-op, for reasons probably obvious if you've followed me for some time, is possibly interested in buying hosting for co-op property management software, and another co-op system whose board I'm on may be interested as well.
There's a long and involved story where we figured all this out, but the TLDR is that world really is a small place sometimes.
For the first time in 36 years, the Washington Post will not endorse a presidential candidate.
This is happening because WaPo owner Jeff Bezos hired a rabid fascist, Will Lewis, as the Post's new publisher.
If you're still paying for a Washington Post subscription, you are paying for the rise of fascism in America, and I hope you will cancel your subscription immediately.
Reminder: Europe ends DST on October 27th, but North America ends it a week later, on November 3rd. If anyone you work with or anything you work on is on the far side of an ocean next week, double check your calendars.

NEW: Crypto critic @molly0xfff received emails from a purported lawyer and someone working for a “reputation management company” offering bribes in exchange for the takedown of a blog post about the arrest of an alleged crypto fraudster.
The purported lawyer used a blog post made on a website apparently populated with the use of a service that offers "SEO optimized human-like content” using AI, claiming White infringed copyright.
White declined.
