We could start using systematic binary prefixes, akin to systematic element names, for those that don’t already have an officially assigned name?

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/System…

So 2^128 bytes
= 2^8 x 2^120 bytes
= 256 x 1024^12 bytes
= 256 unbi-bibytes (12 = un bi)

Seems quite compact actually.

And could also extend to systematic SI prefixes for power-of-1000 magnitude numbers?

Coreo que acabo de mandar a Exteriores, por intentarlo que no quede:

Asunto: Protección diplomática de activistas españoles y respeto al derecho internacional.

Buenos días:

En vista del notorio incumplimiento del derecho internacional del mar en materia de paso inocente, y del derecho internacional humanitario, con menoscabo de la libertad de navegación y de los derechos y libertades de ciudadanos españoles, por parte del estado de Israel, INSTO al Ministerio de Exteriores:

A cumplir con sus obligaciones, de derecho interno e internacional, brindando protección diplomática y ejerciendo buenos oficios conducentes a la inmediata liberación de los ciudadanos españoles ilegalmente retenidos y secuestrados por Israel, velando por su integridad física y moral; llevando a cabo cuantas acciones sean necesarias para asegurar el respeto de la libertad de navegación y el fin del bloqueo ilegal de Gaza en aguas que no son de jurisdicción Israelí; así como todas cuantas acciones se deduzcan de la obligación erga omnes que atañe a todo estado parte de la convención para la prevención y la sanción del delito de genocidio; y de las obligaciones deducidas de la sentencia del TIJ que determina la ilegalidad de la ocupación de los territorios palestinos.

Sin otro particular.

All eyes on the Global Sumud Flotilla: as they approach Gaza, the threat has never been so high...

Meanwhile, Caitlin Johnstone speaks of the so-called "peace plan" for Gaza, demonstrating how Israel flows millions of dollars to Tik Tok and X influencers to spin the narrative to their genocidal interests.

Fifteen ships have passed the illegal "Restriction zone 2" set by the Israeli occupation forces, sailing towards #Gaza, as the shameless soldiers of the genocidal State are intercepting humanitarian vessels of the Flotilla...

Across Europe, people are protesting and chanting to push their elite politicians to intervene in favour of the humanitarian aid.

Good morning... The #Mikeno vessel has reached the territorial waters of #Gaza and seems to have stopped merely minutes before it could be visible from the coast...

GPS position comms depend on internet of AIS (digital VHF), but both seem to be disabled...

It's one of two vessels to have reached the "R1" restriction zone imposed by the occupation forces.

I have to say, I'm fairly impressed by Openai's codex, both the CLI agent and their new gpt-5-codex model. Definitely my new agentic AI tool of choice.

It's the opposite of Claude Code in that it's extremely terse where Claude code is verbose. For example, I much prefer Claude's output for commit messages, as Codex will almost always produce one-liners unless very heavily prompted to do otherwise.

@NVAccess Hey guys, I'll follow this up with an issue, but wondered if you'd seen this behavior. I use WSL a lot, and it throws lots and lots of text into that window. To nav it correctly, I have to be in obj mode in terminal. For some reason, I can't determine when it happens, speech stops and sometimes I know it's partially crashed but sometimes I get the NVDA start sound only when I hit the NVDAS key. Assuming it's a windows terminal problem, but I sure with it was more stable. Can't remember how to set it in Debug move but I don't think it's actually dropping an error, but on e never knows does one. How do I turn that weirdo option on?
in reply to Noel Romey

Sounds like an issue worth reporting - thank you! Re turning debug logging on:

1) Press NVDA+control+g to open NVDA's general settings.
2) Tab to "Log Level"
3) Down arrow to "Debug".
Ok and save settings (I recommend restarting with add-ons disabled, recreating the issue then grabbing the log - that way it's not cluttered with anything else you were doing etc. And we'll need a log with add-ons disabled just to rule out any interference from add-ons.

> There's an opportunity for a service like CloudFlare here give people a simple toggle that manages geoblocks on legal liability factors. It's way too much for every organisation to individually track every country's laws day by day in case just by being accessible there you incur a liability. And it sounds like the UK would have just self-selected out of the list of "safe" countries.

Insane. These people really hate the internet so much they'd be happy to centralize it all

tech q, boosts appreciated

You know, I damn #Trump and his whole administration all to hell, if you are #Trans, do yourself a favor and avoid coming to the #US whatever you do, make an excuse, avoid coming here like the plague until we've kicked #Trump and his brutish people out of office. I hope one day, we will be able to return toward a more inclusive and freedom-based time here, but don't come here, let the people who might want to visit you who can safely do so, but coming to the US right now is the same as asking for a death sentence, all because you might have a gender-neutral card or your #gender on that card is different than what was assigned to you at birth. I'm feeling so much shame for what the US has become and I feel terrible that we are being made to look like people who aren't accepting of #Trans people, but I promise, not all of us here want this to happen or condone this type of anti-trans behavior. Stay safe y'all, the storm will pass, but don't come here for your own safety, the fact I even have to write this down to me is absolutely disgusting and horrifying and I want this all to end and for us to return toward a freer, more inclusive time like has been in years' past.

For the past 3 years, I’ve been part of the Google Accessibility Trusted Tester program, where people with disabilities test unreleased products and give direct feedback to engineers. In my article, I share how the program works, how I’ve maximized participation, the experience I’ve gained, and why more companies should follow Google’s lead in compensating disabled testers.

> A teenager died Saturday in rural Iowa, after he was shot by a fellow hunter who apparently mistook him for a squirrel, officials said.

No fucking way. Come on. I've spent so many hours hunting squirrels, they don't hang out on the ground. It's super rare to catch them there. They will hear you from a distance and go to the trees and start their predator alert calls and try to hide. You gotta shoot them down.

Now rabbits? Yes.

and how the hell do you confuse a human with a squirrel anyway? Someone's hiding the truth

Has anyone noticed that Zoom for Windows uses text fields which are technically inaccessible? They work around this by giving screen reader alerts whenever I use the arrow keys, select text, or delete characters.
Naturally, they don't just pass through the punctuation symbol to the screen reader, because they can't predict which punctuation will get spoken by the screen reader otherwise. So the names of symbols probably won't match the ones in a screen reader. It seems to be based partially on the JAWS symbol dictionary.
On a Braille display, the control is borderline unusable, because there's no cursor representation and any navigation or deletion will replace the entire text field with the announcement. If you type the word "potatos" and then discover there is only one potato, pressing the backspace will replace everything on your Braille display with a line that says "s deleted".
And to top things off, the announcer seems to completely ignore emoji characters and they don't seem to show up in the weird limited object navigation either, so there's no way to confirm you've typed them.
I wonder what kind of absurd design choice or company culture problem led to this need to completely reinvent the wheel for a text field of all things. I know QT had cursor tracking issues in text fields, but I thought that was fixed long ago.
