Panel 1. The Adventurer and the Pink-Fairy walk through the overgrown ruins of an ancient temple. Many cats are around. The adventurer is unimpressed.

True? False?

Come find out tomorrow night, when I’ll be giving a talk on alt-text accessibility. I call it “Alt Text is the Ocean You Thought Was a Pond.” Hosted by our one and only @pdxa11yux.

https://pdxa11yux.org/events/2026/05/27/alt-text-is-the-ocean-you-thought-was-a-pond.html

Bonus: it’s in a library. Libraries are rad. My talk might be, too.

#Accessibility #A11y #Portland #PDX #Presentation #Talk #Meetup #UX #Design #FrontEnd

Presentation slide that reads: your entire alt-text life has been a lie.

Alt Text is the Ocean You Thought Was a Pond

Writing proper alt text is hard. But it doesn't have to be. In this talk, Mark Wyner outlines the many facets, and help you give screen readers something to talk about.

Salut Masto, long time no see...
Mon univesrité veut mettre en place un budget participatif. C'est fort louable, mais on me demande un outil pour faire ça en ligne. Je cherche du libre et je suis tombé sur deux trucs :
- decidim, qui n'a pas l'air mal (développé par une boîte française qui semble avoir une vraie communauté, notamment de devs)
- democraciaos, fait par des argentins; Pas maml sur le papier, mais mal documenté.
Vous avez des expériences avec ces outils ? Vous en voyez d'autres ?

A four-panel comic strip depicting a small, cartoon character wearing glasses who encounters an apocalyptic scenario while trying to get ice cream.
* **Panel 1:** A black-and-white line drawing. The character looks sadly into an open, empty refrigerator. The text above reads, "no ice cream...............................". Below, the character looks determined, grabbing a doorknob, with the text, "i'll go buy some!!!!!!".
* **Panel 2:** The scene shifts to a vibrant, saturated red and orange palette. Outside, a suburban street with silhouettes of houses is shown under a terrifying, massive, glowing red sun with a detailed, distorted face featuring wide yellow eyes and an aggressive, toothy grin.
* **Panel 3:** An exterior shot of the character's house, bathed in a deep orange, hazy atmosphere. The front door is open, and the character stands just outside on the lawn, looking up toward the sky.
* **Panel 4:** The same exterior shot, but the character has quickly stepped back inside and is pulling the front door shut, leaving the landscape empty under the oppressive orange haze. — A four-panel comic strip depicting a small, cartoon character wearing glasses who encounters an apocalyptic scenario while trying to get ice cream. * **Panel 1:** A black-and-white line drawing.

Windows' classic 3D Space Cadet pinball is getting a physical re-creation

But there are some real-world constraints that virtual pinball could easily ignore.

Nein, nur importierter Kunstdünger wird teuer.
Dasselbe wie schon bei "Energiepreisexplosion". Nein, nur importierte fossile Energie wurde teuer.

I don't know that I can pick just one, but . . .

WordPerfect 3.2 with the little plastic multicolor guide that slotted over the left-side function keypad.

X11 with Motif widgets running on a GIGANTIC 19 inch Sun workstation monitor

The amber monochrome screens on an old VT420 terminal.

My old giant trackball from like 2004 that was about the size of a pool cue and a really comfortable hand rest.

The white 11 inch MacBook from like 2003.

The 2013 series of MacBook Pros. Flawless.

The golden age of Lenovo ThinkPads, including the little X1s that were such great little low power workhorses.

Flip phones. Seriously. My old ultraruggedized Casio flip was such a great device.

LaTeX's default typesetting output. I love that I can get it with Markdown and pandoc now.

ANSI animations and Operation Overkill II on BBS doors over a 2400 baud modem.

EDIT: OH. And workstations from like 1996-2004 that were super well designed for field service. Easy to open and service. LOVE.

@MichaelTBacon @cwebber "X11 with Motif widgets" - to my mind, they were a nightmare. MacOS 9 UI widgets were awesome, IMHO. An example is seen on the lauriewired.com site.

WWDC continues to loom and it looks as if Apple plans a jamboree of interesting software improvements for its devices, even as it hits us with a revitalized AI promise – and just what is it going to do about satellite on iPhones?

@rolle kiitos vertaisuudentunteesta. Mulle tehtiin kyllä paljon mukautuksia kun olin vielä töissä. Niin työnkuvan kuin työaikaankin. Mun lähiesihenkilö on aivan mahtava tyyppi ja teki kyllä kaikkensa että pystyisin jatkamaan töissä. Mutta valitettavasti mun tilanne on niin vaikea, että en siihenkään pystynyt ja pitkä saikku. Lopulta työnantaja vaati työkykyarvion ja onneksi eläkepäätös tuli samaan aikaan, niin työsuhde päättyi musta kivammin eläkkeeseen kuin työsuhteen purkuun mun kyvyttömyyden takia.
