While some athletes have raved about the muffins and others have complained about the cardboard beds, some American Olympians are taking advantage of the free healthcare. Team USA rugby player Ariana Ramsey didn't just get a bronze medal in Paris — she's had a pap smear, X-ray, teeth cleaning, and an eye test. She's posted about this on TikTok, influenced other athletes in the Village to visit medical professionals, and now plans to fight for universal healthcare in the U.S. Here's more from Sports Illustrated.
Women’s rugby player Ariana Ramsey’s videos showcasing her appointments have gone viral, and now many others are making good use of the medical services offered in Paris.
New, by me: At least six companies were saved from having to pay hefty ransoms, thanks to rookie security bugs found in the web infrastructure used by the ransomware gangs themselves.
Security researcher Vangelis Stykas said he found simple security flaws in the web panels used by Mallox, BlackCat, and Everest ransomware gangs, which exposed victims' decryption keys and helped him to alert other companies before the criminals could strike.
If Apple wants to source its chips for pennies from foreign suppliers, it should have to pay a price to do so, such as a duty on imported iPhones using only foreign-sourced chips.
there is no apparent trend in either count or rate over the time spanned by this data set; however, the cutoff below 150 uses may mean that we are looking entirely at outliers.
> Both the U.S. and China are major countries that use incarcerated workers and pay them pennies on the dollar, if at all. Legal advocates say prisoners in the U.S. are exploited and pressured to work, because convicts do not enjoy full protection of the country's employment laws. Prison labor in China is even less regulated. apple.news/AdyBjydMKQQ-Y11ZGT_…
Well, I hope it’s a lesson. Still, 30 Mil seems like a bit too an oversized of a figure to me. I mean, what sort of things are they doing there to cost 30 mil?
@vick21 I think they're calculating opportunity cost for not introducing two new products on time. Unless the hardware and software teams are the same, this kinda doesn't make sense.
Since I'm seeing a lot of "I have covid" posts, reminder that the WHO actually published a protocol for recovery after the illness to reduce the odds of Long Covid.

Before I go to bed for the day I'm just gonna leave this here because I definitely didn't just spend an hour playing when I should probably be resting. Someone just made an accessibility mod for Balatro and now I understand why this game blew up. If you haven't heard of it, you're basically making the best poker hands possible with a standard card deck trying to reach increasingly higher score targets. For reaching them you get money which you can use in the shop to buy various upgrades and special cards that let you get even higher scores, which gives you more money... And that's how the game loop works. All this is accompanied by some very chill background music and satisfying sound effects. Another win for #GameAccessibility for sure. You can find the mod here forum.audiogames.net/topic/541…
@Scott So far, it's another case of a mainstream game making me feel kind of dim. I bought it, got the mod installed and working, it speaks through NVDA, I just... don't have a clue what most of the stuff it's saying means or how to play. @pitermach
@jscholes @Scott I'm struggling to get the mod working, have followed the instructions twice over and it is just like... maybe I'm too tired tonight heh.
@jscholes @Scott Okay so figured out how to play, now need to figure out which key it is to buy cards in the shop between rounds. I can see how this will become quickly addicting and fun. I can see why people are really enjoying this.
@blindbat84 @jscholes @Scott It’s right bumper on a controller or E on keyboard. It’s also how you use consumable items. Left bumper or Q to sell something
@blindbat84 @jscholes @Scott They’re listed in the documentation here, if you go by table a few times you should see it. And on that note the keyboard keys to buy and sell are V and Z by default, sorry I’m playing on controller. github.com/Aurelius7309/BlackH…
over the decades/years you have been super diligent in shouting out httpget and urlget but in the big picture FWIW I think it is ok to make curl the root of the tree and denote the beginnings accordingly in 'history of curl'
Musk was widely mocked for suing advertisers, but the advertising group he sued is now dissolving, saying they don't have the resources to fight the idiocy, The Times reports. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ru) predictably praised the outcome as a "big win for the First Amendment."
Do you love hearing your NVDA say "row 1 through 2 column 2 table with 4 rows and 2 columns row 3 through 4 column 2 table with 2 rows and 2 columns row 1 column 1 " and "row 3 through 4 column 2 table with 2 rows and 2 columns row 1 column 1 " you don't need to look far, just read a Wikipedia page like this one. ("Acquisition history") en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_Sc… after the name rang a bell from the COVID era for me, I looked them up and found this gem.
Am I the only person who turns off headings, tables, lists, landmarks, etc. etc. for browse mode? One of the first things I do with a new installation.
@ppatel @Jage I usually keep them on mostly to get the experience of the default settings as close as I can (as my QA / test-centric brain has forced me into it.) Also, I worry that if I were to disable these, I wouldn't know whether I've stepped into a table and more crucially its boundaries or dimensions, something that's helpful info to me to have so I know how many blocks to navigate by within my memory.
@ppatel @Jage I wish you could disable announcements for the table role but still get dimensions (like 3 rows and 4 columns) - looking at some sites I visit, it could be extremely difficult to tell whether the part of the page belongs to the table data or as actual text on it, which would still disorient me a lot. I do disable some, like clickable elements that I would have on for testing, as those tend to annoy me the most on sites hearing it repeated.
@ppatel @Jage honestly, I had no idea that you could turn them off. I honestly might do that. Especially because I read a lot of Wikipedia pages, and sometimes it gets very annoying to hear that information.
@jmd2000 @ppatel @Jage this is where I do wish NVDA had site-specific settings though, because it would be nice to have that info off for certain domains and not others. If I'm just looking at specs for a product or something like that on Wikipedia the table info just serves even less use once it's more than like 10 columns wide.
@pixelate That is one of the things that would steer me away from using NVDA on a more regular basis honestly. I do not like how verbose it is about tables.
Atentátom na mňa nič neskončilo, tvrdí premiér. Opozícia a médiá podľa neho vyrábajú ďalšieho Cintulu

"Reproducible Builds in July 2024" — featuring our "Android Reproducible Builds at IzzyOnDroid with rbtlog" announcement (and a lot more news from the Reproducible Builds community) — has just been published :)
The Crimson Diamond is ONE WEEK away from launch! Years of hard work on a labour of love - I'm so excited to finally share it. Thank you for your support & patience. Thank you to my testers & patrons. I say I'm a solo dev, I didn't do this alone. 🥹
Follow amateur geologist and reluctant detective Nancy Maple to the ghost town of Crimson, Ontario to investigate the discovery of a massive diamond in this retro-inspired, EGA text parser mystery adventure!
To clarify, I know what parser games are in general, but am unsure what "EGA" means in the context of a modern Windows game. Is it recreating an EGA aesthetic using a modern engine? Is the underlying parser-based game using an interpreter like Glulx or a Z-machine interpreter?
I want to determine if it would be feasible to make the game accessible to blind people using screen readers.

I'm currently trying to use a tool named FediFetcher, specifically to try backfilling certain Lemmy groups that are taking much longer than usual to sync, sometimes taking up to one week to receive a message. Unfortunately, I'm stuck in the step where I try to fetch the lists where these groups are, because it inevitably fails due to a timeout of 60 seconds that I cannot figure out how to raise. For instance, this is the output of FediFetcher:
$ bash fedifetcher.sh

I've been digging through the source code and cannot figure out whether the limit is on Friendica itself, on PHP (or FPM), or on the database. This is a list of files, and the edits I have added, in the hopes of raising that 60-second timeout:
I think I found the proper place to change it, for those that are in a similar issue. On your site's nginx settings file (in my case /etc/nginx/conf.d/hub.azkware.net.d/friendica.conf), edit this section to add the following parameters (which I copied from the defaults for Nextcloud):
