C is such a piece of shit language. Only language where "I need a dynamically growing array or a hashmap" is answered with "roll your own lol n_n"
EDIT: C (not C++, not Zig, not Rust) is the correct language for the job I'm doing. I am also very aware of how to implement dynamic arrays and hash tables. I have written my own stdlibs on freestanding C before. I do not actually need coaching in this matter, thank you. I also like C, sometimes, but sometimes I think it's a stupid piece of shit language, because it is

My family is a Linux family: both my parents and my wife use Linux, and so will the kids once they have their own computers. Apart from my Dad, they're all non-enthusiasts.
Yet, none of them use a beginner-friendly distribution. My Wife, who's by far the least technologically inclined of them all, is a very happy and satisfied NixOS user. A distribution that's the exact opposite of beginner-friendly.
How is that possible? None of them maintain their systems. I do that for them. In the past two decades, what I learned from helping friends and family with their computers is that the vast majority of non-enthusiasts have absolutely no desire to install and maintain an operating system, or even programs. They're much happier if someone else does that for them.
Therefore, while I see value in distributions aimed at beginner enthusiasts, I see very little value in distributions aimed at non-enthusiasts.
I wrote a few more words about this topic on my blog too.

Hey, hi there 👋 yeah, you 🫵
It's almost Follow Friday and you seem pretty awesome 
So if I don't follow you or boost your stuff, it's probably because you don't regularly include alt-text on your pictures or videos.
You see, I have visually impaired followers, and I like the stuff I share to be accessible to them.
I also won't boost things without reasonable CWs for similar reasons—I have followers that don't want to see some of that shit, and I want to keep their Fedi feeds a safe space.
Thx! I look forward to boosting your stuff soon 💕

@kevinrj @mcourcel falls apart is putting it politely, with all the extra indicators you need. But they're different in purpose, I think. Nemeth is a specific adaptation of Braille for those versed in the subject.
UEB is a universally readable format, applicable across data types, with additions in fields that matter (like math), without losing the initial structure.
LaTeX and markdown are used for different things, y'know?

I dislike wokeness, but this makes sense to me. Imagine a person not legally classified as disabled because of bad laws, but still considering themselves as such.
To me, the question of whether you are legally considered disabled and whether you consider yourself as such are distinct, and it's worth emphasizing this distinction IMO.

Vystěhování obyvatel z ubytovny na Jarní ulici v Brně opět připomnělo, že to nejsou Romové, kdo zneužívá sociální dávky, ale podnikatelé obchodující s chudobou. Politické strany a místní samosprávy jim v tom mnohdy čile asistují.Deník Referendum

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.
