I'm searching for a picture of a #toilet with an #armrest, attached to the toilet. The license of the picture must allow to reuse it (e.g. a #CreativeCommonsLicense).
Examples of the type of picture I need can be found on essenlux.com/products/comfort-…; healthcaresolutions.ca/product… or hmi-basen.dk/en/r11x.asp?linki… (but those have an unclear license).
I'm _not_ searching for pictures showing grab rails (neither wall-mounted or fold-down items), we already have plenty of those!

Tonight's weird tech question: Is there a DOM API/JavaScript hack of some sort I can use to track, save, and restore the screen reader's position in a relatively static HTML document? Say, for instance, you were reading a book in an HTML document with your screen reader, then closed the window. Now imagine that window was an app, and I wanted to make certain your position was restored when that app opened again. Is there an API I could hook into for that?
It's not quite focus, because that'd require tabindex. It probably isn't one of the text properties, right? Because you're not exactly in charted territory when you're arrowing through a paragraph not in a writable element like an input or textarea. Can I track that at all?
Peter Vágner reshared this.
No. The closest thing to an automatic solution to that is probably tracking scroll position, and you may or may not be able to make that more granular by making the text quite big (I haven't tried). But even then, the best you're gonna be able to achieve is to track the closest element and put focus back there to restore the position, without character-level accuracy.
I know that Mozilla and NV Access have done some work to allow selection of text within the NVDA browse mode buffer to be communicated to the browser for on-page actions that require a selection. But:
1. That doesn't work across browsers; and
2. your use case seems targeted at reading, not selecting.
Thanks, that's what I was thinking. And just to check an assumption, setting the scroll position won't update the screen reader's position in the doc--I'd have to use focus shenanigans for that?
For context, this is my attempt at a document reader that saves/restores position when the document is closed/reopened. I don't think I need character accuracy, or even paragraph accuracy, if I can open books or longer documents to roughly where the reader closed out.
FWIW I'm not just being lazy and asking, I'm trying right now and it isn't working, which I suspected it wouldn't. It's also possible I'm using my web framework wrong or that something is behaving silly under Linux.
Thanks again!
That's mostly correct.
There are some instances in which a webpage can move the scroll position without explicitly setting focus to the target element, and have the screen reader's reading position follow. But that can be less reliable, particularly if the target element is visually obscured, and setting focus is a more explicit/guaranteed way to do it.
Note that if you're setting focus to things like headings and paragraphs that aren't focusable by default, you'll need to dynamically inject a `tabindex="-1"` for the best results.

I’ve been working on a #freebsd from scratch blog post series and was going to skip right over Xorg (preferring #wayland and #sway)…and then I heard about #NSCDE - a reimplementation of #Solaris #CDE look-and-feel via #fvwm
Thanks to work by Christian Moerz, it was a snap. Literally `pkg install Xorg nscde` a change to my .xinitrc and I was up in a pastel bliss again. Run #interlisp on it is a beautiful joy.
I was so impressed AND I got to avoid abandonware security holes and bit rot— so I sent some librepay love. It’s a great project!
The Department of Education being closed is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.
Most #maga supporters want it as #trump and #doge convinced them schools were federally funded, and they were going to overhaul and fix it.
They're too uneducated to know that it's already funded by states, and The Department of Education exists to fill gaps in resources, especially for #disabled and disadvantaged children.
Which red states need THE MOST.

Do you have a preference for or comments on the format of URLs? During user research, we have learned that URLs that are easy to handle are a good thing.
We are currently considering to introduce URLs that do not need more reserved usernames in #Forgejo, such as codeberg.org/-/something/ or codeberg.org/_something/.

@menelion The features we are currently about to implement is moderation tooling where submitting and viewing these things is considering to introduce codeberg.org/-/abuse_reports/n… (current proposal) or something similar like codeberg.org/_abuse_reports/ne….
While it is probably a feature that is not visited frequently, it might be good to set a direction for future endpoints that are more prominent.
IIRC, Gitea has recently even moved some routes to the /-/something pattern.
~f
Yeah, the idea is to avoid adding more and more reserved usernames for every route and simply using patterns that are easy to differentiate from user accounts. For example, user accounts could be prevented to start with an underscore and you could do URLs that start with an underscore for "special use".
We wondered if there was a recommendation or best practice that is still acceptable accessibility-wise.
The thing about blogs: If it looks modern with a short URL and has tons of cookie popups and self-promo, stay away. If it looks like a plain HTML page with some basic CSS, found at a long URL at the bottom of your search result, it's probably trustworthy and written by a passionate self-hosting human being.
Basically, the more it looks like motherfuckingwebsite.com, the higher the quality of the material you're about to read.

The problem, aside from the product recalls, the fact you can die inside when it catches fire and the doors lock, the substandard programming and the fact they look like the entire genre of vaporwave shit itself in vehicle form, is the fact that at this point it is known the only people who want one are fascists and/or smug dicks with raging compensation issues.
