You'll find that there are a lot of JAWS users on this platform who'll be happy to assist.

1/3 "Časť roka som strávil písaním knihy a rozprával som sa pritom s mnohými múdrymi ľuďmi. Jeden z nich povedal, že dobrá krajina nie je tá, v ktorej sa konkrétny politik postará konkrétne o vás, ale taká, v ktorej sa systém čo najlepšie postará o čo najviac ľudí."

Interesante el tema de los reajustes del PIB. Es increíble el nivel de variación que puede haber, y me hace plantearme preguntas sobre temas econométricos en general. Realmente las magnitudes con las que se trabaja se corresponden con una realidad material, o son construcciones tan discutibles que no se trata tanto de medir la realidad como de crearla?

1/4 "V lete prešla našimi médiami takmer bez povšimnutia správa, na ktorej ma prekvapili dve veci. Prvou bol samotný obsah správy, druhou bol jej minimálny ohlas vo verejnej debate, nehovoriac o debate politickej.

Tou správou bolo, že podľa oficiálnych údajov Eurostatu sú na Slovensku najnižšie čisté platy v celej Európskej únii…"

Human composting should be a third option after burial and cremation.

My wife, Tui Davidson, spent her volunteer energy to provide a not-for-profit funeral service for Canberra. Five years later, they are a successful operation.

On Thursday, I was honoured and proud to attend her graduation from a social entrepreneur course called GRIST from Mill House Ventures. Earthly Remains is her human composting initiative and, as well as working with partners to develop the technology, she is lobbying the ACT government to create legislation to allow it, as 13 US states have done.

The GRIST program supported the creation of a short video which explains it better than I can.

She is also looking to collect data about community attitudes and would appreciate your input on a survey found at the website below.

Older version had paste in that locationbar menu.

the "paste" menu item was there in the past because you could not click on the empty space on the side, top, and below the items; these days, you can.

There's also the key shortcut, of course.

Buenos días. Hoy sigo enfermo así que me quedo en casa.

Tuve un sueño muy desagradable de que llegaba una diligencia de ordenación en un asunto acumulado criticando el cómputo de plazos en la Administración, se filttraba a la prensa, y me echaban a mi la culpa de todo. A ver, mente, faltan problemas como para que te tengas que inventar esto?

Currently adding these sections to about windows of some popular apps whose developers I know have multiple well-known projects. My hope is that these people get inspired to replicate the change to the listed apps as well 🙂

@bagder@mastodon.social My project has gone much longer than that despite being far more complex. (this is of course a sign of how little people are looking at my project and says nothing about security)

This fun little test scene is using #SVG textPath elements to make an arching caterpillar, some bees, and a trail of ants coming out of an anthill. Except all the bugs are made out of #braille that spells out the type of bug it's making up. Using the Braille36 Tiger font and using Unicode Braille Pattern characters for the braille itself to be visifle and embossable. It's really fun reading the braille in a non-standard way around the paper! #Blind #TactileGraphics #BlindSVG
A leaf made out of grey outlines and a stem is in the center of the drawing. On top of the leaf, the braille characters spelling out "caterpillar" are arched mimicking the body posture of a caterpillar inching along. An anthill is at the bottom of the drawing, with a line of braille ants coming out of it and marching down the side and along the ground. Two braille bees are in the upper right and lower right areas of the drawing, flying in different angles.

I wish we could get an update for the glasses that would allow us to only record audio. Given that these things have 32 gigs of onboard audio you would have a wearable digital recorder right there with you. The stereo recordings overall with these things are pretty awesome.

Private browser windows in Firefox have the text "Private Browsing" in the title bar. The word "Private" in that phrase gets treated as a title by Eloquence because of the capitalization, so I find myself imagining a private in some military named Browsing every time I hear it.

I thought that was just me, good to know.
Also, when I got given my first Windows 9x machine, the person demoing it to me used Microsoft Mary. the drive letter and closing right parenthesis in the properties of a drive in Windows explorer used to be pronounced "c smiley". Originally I believed it to be a smiley because I had lots of free space and, if I filled up the hard drive, it'd turn into a frown.

@BorrisInABox this guy was so impressed with his software voice, I didn't have the heart to explain my dolphin thing would work just as well as it always had for me.
He also introduced me to a DAISY book which utterly underwhelmed me, given I'd been putting MP3's onto disks for ages.
Funny, the things people think you should think are brilliant, isn't it?

@BorrisInABox @cachondo I used to sometimes get the same "C smiley" effect by using an emoticon dictionary (maybe Doug Lee's?) with JAWS. I think it was designed for Skype but sometimes application settings didn't get switched properly straight away

@graham @BorrisInABox I don't think JAWS switches config until you release the alt key when alt+tabbing, so iirc, the titlebar of any other window you're about to access is covered by the dictionary of the originally focused app.
So that would make a lot of sense.

Danke #Merz! Der Typ hat echt mal so keine Ahnung von der Realität…

Wie kann ein normaler Arbeitnehmer solche einen Typen bzw. die dazugehörige Partei wählen?
Politik für den Bürger? Fehlanzeige!

Und den Umweltschutz auf der Strecke lassen, ist ein Schlag ins Gesicht der jungen Generationen.

Wer #Merz oder die #CDU wählt, der wählt Rückständigkeit und soziale Kälte

taz.de/!6036751/

Text Shot: Doch kaum verklausuliert macht Merz auch klar: Unter seiner Regierung soll es einen ordnungspolitischen Rechtskurs mit weniger Sozialleistungen und Klimaschutz geben. Merz fordert eine „Agenda 2030“. Ar­beit­neh­me­r:in­nen müssten dazu gebracht werden, „wieder mehr zu leisten, als im Arbeitsvertrag steht“ – nur so könne die Bundesrepublik „Land der industriellen Fertigung“ bleiben. Das gerade erst eingeführte Bürgergeld will Merz genauso abschaffen wie „die überbordende europäische Bürokratie“.

I was at a masked meetup in Golden Gate Park today, enjoying the company of fellow #CovidIsNotOver peeps. There's a discord server that we use to coordinate, and it's usually just an informal hang. We're not completely off the beaten path, but let's just say parking isn't a problem.

Guy (properly masked) walks up to us and asks us if we're a #CovidConsious group. He'd never heard of us, and thought he and his wife were the only ones.

Visibility matters, y'all.

Every time government leaders get a raise, minimum wage should be raised by the same percentage.

Every time a CEO gets a raise, including bonuses, all workers should get their pay increased by the same percentage.

If they need raises in their living wage, it only goes to follow that everyone else does as well.
