This is an important effort to help explore what can be done to make the #Web less energy-hungry…. and thereby help reduce the impact of the overall #Internet on #ClimateChange. (Since web traffic is such a huge amount of Internet traffic.) Good to see this happening!
The newly launched Sustainable Web IG will publish the Web Sustainability Guidelines (WSG). The guidelines are in line with the Sustainable Web Manifesto and aligned with GRI Standards and the UN Sustainable Development Goals to help organizations in…
I ran across a survey from Tilburg University on the experiences and perspectives of image describers. It asked what process I follow to write image alternative text, and it occurred to me that I don’t use a checklist or guideline anymore.
Imagine describing Alt+Tab as "popular", rather than, you know, critical in allowing non-mouse users to operate their computers: pcworld.com/article/2514044/wi…

@mozilla It's not. They threw everything they stood for under the bus to embrace advertising and AI. Shocking to see this is the result I tell you shocked.
Mozilla stopped being a privacy company a while ago TBH. The latest blow is the removal of uBlock Origin Lite. We need to develop an alternative browser engine.
I'm not even willing to try chromium based browsers.

Steam founder Gabe Newell has $1bn worth of yachts all around the world.
Steam doesn’t get nearly enough shit from gamers btw. It is DRM lock in, they make $10bn with about 200 employees and shut everyone out of the PC market.
"My anti-overlay client letter" — I'm often asked about accessibility overlays, and this is the email I send to clients when that discussion gets serious.
It may be helpful to others making the case against overlays and laying down the facts.
I really dislike accessibility overlays and am often asked about my thoughts or to implement one. This is my email response when that discussion gets serious.
"The thing that nobody tells you is that you can buy a real human skull online (shoutout to skullsunlimited.com). We did that, and then CT scanned it."

Are those de-duplicated? How are dealing with push vs PR builds?
#SFML is currently getting ~100 builds, but on a PR it's always duplicated because we can't (easily) get GitHub Actions to ignore PR if it also runs for push.
Most of them complete within 20 minutes, typically all of them within 30 minutes. But we have worked HARD recently to get hem down to this. Used to be multiple hours.
You have an old Raspberry Pi lying around and are wondering what you can do with it. Well, it might be old but that doesn't mean it's outdated. In this post, I will give you
In what was only my third in-person interview since the pandemic, I sat down with Lenovo’s chief diversity officer in Ada Lopez one of the days whilst in the Pacific Northwest to discuss the company’s commitment to accessibility and how AI plays a ro…

Thüringen ist hier bundesweit Vorreiter. Auch wenn für dieses Jahr die Mittel ausgeschöpft sind, ist es gut, dass praktische #Nachhaltigkeit gefördert wird.
While standing still for more than 20 minutes and then moving with a speed of 20 km/h from signal to signal, one can see the energy transition of Poland. On the right, a natural gas mine is burning excess gas while on the left, windmills are producing renewable energy. #TrainFriday
Czech railway people all know that the proper way of attaching the locomotive to the train is to put the chain link of the train on the hook of the locomotive. Somehow this does not seem to be the case abroad as this is already the second time I see the connection made the other way around. #TrainFriday
@mdecky what I heard it relates to the fact that broken chain link on the locomotive is much more serious issue than broken chain link on a carriage. But it might be just an urban legend.
The other Frankfurt. There is no proper ticket office and everything that looks like a ticket office has a big sign saying what they don't do. #TrainFriday
The typical situation at a subway train door is like that: 1) I want to get on, but standing outside the door profile to allow passengers to leave the car (I see some persons just behind the door). 2) Several seconds passed and the door remains closed. Thus I go to it and press the button. 3) The door opens, I make one step ... and collide with the passengers running out between the ones standing inside close the door (and not leaving the car). 🙈
