Accessibility is a top priority for Wagtail. With clear accessibility goals, dedicated accessibility team and a built-in accessibility checker, Wagtail is designed to make content accessible at scale.

Apple still stick the mouse charging port underneath.

And you wonder why they abandoned the car idea. They couldn't figure out how to make this work.

I am so tired after the Swift 6 workshop I attended today. however the amount of new knowwledge I gained today is unbelievable. My eyes have been opened to many new topics as well. I am so happy to be there.

Can you believe that a GitHub issue I opened six years ago in the depths of “the long dark tea-time of the soul” has had such a cascading impact?
It has ultimately led to the formation of a dedicated accessibility team for @django
This is a moment that truly highlights the power of open source and everything it represents.
I'm so grateful for this community 💙

For me personally – this was a definite inflection point in my career, as I started investing way more into accessibility expertise. For Wagtail, we followed this with a project for a large govt agency to do even more testing and improvements of the CMS admin. Then got our accessibility team started. Then the accessibility team for @django. An #ATAG audit for Wagtail. Yearly reporting on our accessibility. There’s a long way to go but the journey’s been great already 🌈

@Django @Thibaud Colas

Rclone is one of those programs that, especially as a Windows user, I wonder how I ever did without. For the local or SFTP sync jobs yes Linux people will be laughing at me because they have rsync and I don't, still not aware of native rsync for Windows, options are cygwin and WSL unless I missed something, but the remote features? The ability to mount a *http index* as a file system, traverse it, and run diff-based syncing against it to update a local mirror? That is just so cool! And yes we get to mount file systems like that too, WinFSP is apparently a fuse reimplementation for Windows, so something that supports fuse can be compiled to support it too.

I'm an OSX and very occasionally Linux person, and I definitely concur. At my previous job, it literally saved me days of needless file pushing.

Proud to be a part of driving positive change in the accessibility for @wagtail!
Huge thanks to @thibaudcolas and the team for your unwavering commitment and sense of responsibility. It makes all the difference.

This was the ticket I created our "accessibility" ticket triage label for. 38 of those still opened, 165 closed. Kick-ass!



Making Wagtail Accessible for users with disabilities · Issue #4199 · wagtail/wagtail

Hello everyone, After reading the docs, I've decided to use Wagtail on one of my personal projects. Since I'm blind, I've discovered that my experience on editing content would be rather unpleasant...

That is amazing, Musharraf! The accessibility teams cannot do good work without the input of disabled users. You being a programmer is even better because you know how code works.

We sadly have a long way to go in Django core as well, but I hope you can enjoy our platforms for a long time, and that your experience improves.

Friendly reminder, if you stopped masking due to social pressure, anxiety, or for any other reason, and you wanna mask up again, you absolutely can! Lots of folks never stopped masking and some folks are starting again because of the cold and flu season on top of national COVID spikes.

I just got a call from someone claiming that my number was associated with an online swag order. The thing is, I couldn't tell if it was AI or not. It seemed to be at first, and the way the guy laughed was very suspicious. However, he also checked my number in a very human-like way. I'm generally very good at picking out AI audio. It's scary that I couldn't manage to do so this time.

I didn't think this was possible but the real disappointment of the day isn't Apple Intelligence – it's the "updated" Magic accessories.

They literally just…swapped the Lightning port for USB-C. No multi-device pairing, no design changes, nothing else.

The mouse still has the charging port at the bottom too. 😂

Dear Microsoft Edge,
You do know that keeping around 15 older versions of yourself after updating isn't polite, right?
Maybe don't do this?

The lab computers in my #CCNA course have a strange issue. Neither #narrator or #NVDA will speak. I can hear the music when NVDA starts, but there's no speech. I've tried two of the laptops in here, and they do the same thing. Any idea how I can fix this? My instructor doesn't think the IT people would have uninstalled the Microsoft voices, but I can't imagine what else might have happened here. I might just have to spend money I can't afford for a USB-C to ethernet adaptor to use my own device.

You've got to love the IT guys playing about with settings they don't understand. Good luck trying to work out what they did. Last time I was in that situation on my work laptop it took months for us to finally uncover what setting caused the weird behaviour with my screen reader.

I can't think of what they might have done - though removing the Microsoft voices might do it? I've never tried - TBH, not sure if NVDA would roll over to eSpeak-NG or not - could you try a portable copy of NVDA on a memory stick (set to use eSpeak-NG)

#Catima 2.32.0 is out!

This is a minor release which fixes the #Stocard importer (again), adds an accessibility feature to switch between the displayed card with the volume keys (when enabled in settings) and contains some small polish like adding some icons to the add dialog box.

Coming soon to an app store near you :)

Sadly, pkpass support didn't make the cut (I wanted to push this out quickly given the Stocard shutdown).

The pkpass progress is good but the branch misses the zip handling fix that caused the Stocard issue and doesn't properly load images yet. It also needs some further testing to make sure no new issues were introduced as it required quite a lot of refactoring.

If anyone *really* needs pkpass support *now*, building yourself an APK from the branch is probably safe :)

TIL: Firefox has a machine translation system built into `about:translations`. This also works on mobile.
Screenshot of Firefox Translations, at url `about:translations`. It shows a familar and simple UI with two side-by-side text boxes, the left one has a combobox saying “Detect language (French)”, and contains French text: “Je viens de découvrir que Firefox a un système de traduction automatique intégré dans `about:translations`”. The right one has a combobox saying “English”, and contains the translation of that text: “I just found out that Firefox has a machine translation system built into 'about:translations'.”

Happens here in Canada w/ Post Merdia [not a typo, they're quite literally shit], as almost all of Canadian media have decided that the leader of the official opposition is justified in not obtaining a security clearance and that the LPC needs a new leader.

MSM DRIVES THE NARRATIVE.

Pollsters asking, on a scale of 1 to 10 how much I hate Trudeau? [I don't]

None ask about how concerned Canadians are about PP NOT having a security clearance.

What’s confusing is that it mixes anecdotal evidence with studies, on diff versions of Whisper, wrapped in a range of different software, using a variety of audio types. Audio quality, length, number of voices, speech patterns all matter a lot. And the longer the recording the more likely it is to have errors

I had a #WeirdDream the other night.

touchscreens, if backlit from within at a certain frequency, allowed their content to be felt as well as seen.
So you could buy a 6 inch eInk display for about 30 quid and make a Braille display out of it.

Obviously it was just a case of then rewriting the firmware of every little thing with a screen to make it show Braile instead of print.
