Florian<p>When I started the IC_Null channel the idea was to cover topics primarily about <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cybersecurity</span></a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/hacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hacking</span></a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pentesting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pentesting</span></a> etc. from a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> perspective. Blind as in <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/screenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>screenReader</span></a> user, that is. But an overarching topic is showing off what jobs are (up to a point) doable for this demographic and where the obstacles are. Today's stream leans that way: we'll be looking at the premier <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/translation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>translation</span></a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/localization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>localization</span></a> tool, Trados Studio. Supposedly they have upped their <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> as of late. I'll be the judge of that 💀<br>I'll see you all on <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/youtube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>youtube</span></a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/twitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>twitch</span></a> just under 1.5 hours from now. https://twitch.tvic_null <a href="https://youtube.com/@blindlyCoding" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtube.com/@blindlyCoding</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/selfPromo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>selfPromo</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/stream" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stream</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/trados" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trados</span></a></p>

James Scholes<p>Today I learned: If you use <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Chrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chrome</span></a> and are annoyed by those "Sign in with Google" dialogs stealing keyboard focus on certain websites, you can disable it at the browser level.</p><p>In the address bar, type or paste in "chrome://settings/content/federatedIdentityApi" (without the quotes. You should land on the "Third-party sign-in" Settings page.</p><p>On that page, there'll be two radio buttons: "Sites can show sign-in prompts from identity services", and "Block sign-in prompts from identity services". Set it to the second one, and you should find that the problematic dialogs are no longer present.</p><p><a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/screenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>screenReader</span></a></p>

Svenja<p>Edit: Viele nennen Owncast, falls ihr noch andere Ideen habt gern nennen.<br>Ich hab auf dem alten Account mal eine Opensourcealternative zu Twitch gesagt bekommen, erinner mich aber nicht mehr. Die wichtigsten Funktionen wären für mich die Möglichkeit über OBS dort zu streamen und den chat so einbinden zu können, dass mir die Nachrichten automatisch vom ScreenReader vorgelesen werden, wie ich es auch bei Twitch habe.

Chris C<p>Making Gemini AI a Windows App.<br>If you are a Google Gemini user and wish they had a Windows app, then here are the steps in accomplishing this. Please note: This can be done whether you use Microsoft Edge or the Google Chrome browser. These are the steps using the Google Chrome browser with Jaws.<br>1. Open Google Chrome and go to gemini.google.com.<br>2. If not already signed in, sign in to your Google Account.<br>3. Press the alt key and you should here, Chrome button menu.<br>4. Arrow up until you hear, Cast, Save, Share submenu.<br>5. Press the right arrow to open the submenu.<br>6. Arrow down until you hear, Install page as app..., and press enter.<br>7. A dialog will pop up and you will land on a Cancel button.<br>8. If you tab one time you will be in an edit box to name the app. There will be a default name already there, but you can change it to whatever you want if you like.<br>9. Tab to the Install button and press enter and this will create the app on your computer.<br>10. There should now be an icon on your desktop. So you can now access it from your start menu or your desktop. <br>11. You can even add it to your Task Bar like other apps if you want.<br>Enjoy!<br><a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Gemini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gemini</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/App" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>App</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Chrome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chrome</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Browser" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Browser</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/ScreenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScreenReader</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/accessible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessible</span></a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a></p>

Lanie Molinar Carmelo<p>Curious if any other <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/jaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jaws</span></a> users have noticed some weirdness with copying things to the clipboard lately, especially in <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/WebBrowsers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebBrowsers</span></a>. I primarily use <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/MicrosoftEdge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MicrosoftEdge</span></a> but have noticed it in other places too. Take this for example: I'm writing some notes on <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/WCAG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WCAG</span></a> success criteria in <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Joplin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Joplin</span></a>, getting some information from <a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Understanding/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this page on understanding WCAG</a>.

I use a </span><a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/screenreader" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#screenreader</a><span>, so I'm deeply aware of the audio lag from headphones and the audio subsystem, and configure things to reduce that as much as I can. I also knew bluetooth can introduce lag. But on picking up the Ducky...wow! A few ms can really matter! My system feels faster than it's ever felt before. Even if I wind up returning this, now I know that keyboard refresh rate is a thing I care about. Also, the inductive switches feel really nice and clicky to press, but are reasonably quiet for those around me.</span></p>

Does LibreWolf have the same level of accessibility for screen readers as FireFox? If not, why? I have to ask, as I’d rather not waste my time on an inaccessible web browser, and I imagine other screen reader users like myself would agree. <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/A11Y" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>A11Y</span></a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/Blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blind</span></a> <a href="https://social.tchncs.de/tags/ScreenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScreenReader</span></a></p>

Desktop (Windows, Mac) and mobile (iOS, Android).<br><br>Hoping for some input, please feel free to boost. As far as I know:<br><br>Matrix does not have a lightweight, fully accessible client for desktop, but one could be modified, such as <a href="https://tardis.pw/tags/gomuks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gomuks</span></a>. On mobile, Element has scrolling issues, which is unacceptable for large rooms.<br><br>XMPP has accessible desktop clients (I used to run <a href="https://tardis.pw/tags/adium" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Adium</span></a> on the Mac), also <a href="https://tardis.pw/tags/weechat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeeChat</span></a>. No idea about mobile.<br><br>IRC is perhaps the one which everything supports on desktop, from <a href="https://tardis.pw/tags/mirandaim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MirandaIM</span></a> through Weechat to the old Freedom Chat, which I could probably rewrite if I had to. Also not sure about mobile, but it would definitely need push notifications, because we can't expect people to stay constantly online on the go. <a href="https://tardis.pw/tags/a11y" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>a11y</span></a> <a href="https://tardis.pw/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a></p>
