James ScholesRecent datepicker experience: 1. Control is presented as three separate spin controls, supporting the Up/Down Arrow keys to increment and decrement the value as well as manual typing. But because they're not text inputs, I can't use the Left/Right Arrow keys to review what each separate one contains, only to move between day, month, and year. 2. I tab to year. 3. I press Down Arrow, and the value is set to 2075. I'm unclear how many use cases require the year to be frequently set to 2075, but I can't imagine it's many so this seems like a fairly ridiculous starting point. 4. I press Up Arrow, and the value gets set to 0001. The number of applications for which 0001 is a valid year is likewise vanishingly small. 5. I delete the 0001, at which point my <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/screenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#screenReader</a> reports that the current value is "0". Also not a valid year. 6. Out of curiosity, I inspect the element to see which third-party component is being used to create this mess... only to find that it's a native `<input>` with `type="date"` and this is just how Google Chrome presents it.A good reminder that <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/HTML" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HTML</a> is not always the most <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/accessible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessible</a> or user-friendly.<a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accessibility</a> <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/usability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#usability</a>

🇨🇦Samuel Proulx🇨🇦So an update on Guide: I've exchanged some long emails with Andrew, the lead developer. He's open to dialogue, and moving the project in the right direction: well-scoped single tasks, more granular controls and permissions, etc. He doesn't strike me as an <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/AI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#AI</a> maximalist can and should do everything all the time kind of guy. He's also investigating deeper screen reader interaction, to let AI just do the things we can't do that it's best at. I stand by my thoughts that the project isn't yet ready for prime time. But as someone else in the thread said, I don't think it should be written off entirely as yet another "AI will save us from inaccessibility" hype train. There is, in fact, something here if it gets polished and scoped a bit more. <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/blind" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#blind</a> <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/screenreader" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#screenreader</a> <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/a11y" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#a11y</a>

FlorianWhen 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">#cybersecurity</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/hacking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hacking</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pentesting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pentesting</a> etc. from a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#blind</a> perspective. Blind as in <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/screenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#screenReader</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">#translation</a> and <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/localization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#localization</a> tool, Trados Studio.

I will say that for my use-case, if <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/ZDSR" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#ZDSR</a> was fully documented in English, it competes a lot more directly with <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/nvda" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#nvda</a> than <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/jaws" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#jaws</a> does, runs fine in a virtual machine, and has a bunch of stuff built in that I use NVDA addons for.

Lanie Molinar CarmeloCurious if any other <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/jaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jaws</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">#WebBrowsers</a>. I primarily use <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/MicrosoftEdge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MicrosoftEdge</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">#WCAG</a> success criteria in <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Joplin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Joplin</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 selected the number and name of SC 1.2.3 and pressed CTRL+C. JAWS should have copied " 1.2.3 Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded)", but all it copied was "1.2.3 ". I tried this several times, making sure I had all the text selected. It's not the first time it's happened lately, either. I've noticed it for at least the last few weeks, and it's very frustrating. Sometimes I'll switch to <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/NVDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NVDA</a> just because I know it will copy things correctly. <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/ScreenReader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScreenReader</a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Accessibility</a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows</a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Windows11</a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/WindowsEleven" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WindowsEleven</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@freedomscientific" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@freedomscientific</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/mastoblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@mastoblind</a> <a href="https://rblind.com/c/main" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@main</a>

🇨🇦Samuel Proulx🇨🇦So the primary thing I've learned from trying out the Ducky One <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/mechanical" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#mechanical</a> <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/keyboard" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#keyboard</a> is just how much lag my previous keyboards (a codekeyboard and a razer) were adding. I use a <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/screenreader" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#screenreader</a>, 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.

Sadly, most of these projects seem to consider accessibility an unneeded feature that ads bloat and security issues and just strip it out completely, so I don't have high hopes. This just seems to be the latest one getting popular after the recent <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/firefox" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#firefox</a> issues. <a href="https://fed.interfree.ca/tags/a11y" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag" target="_blank">#a11y</a>

The face is distorted and blurred, with red and white colour tones that look like tears or blood running down. The mouth is wide open in rage. The background is blurred and has brown and grey tones. The overall style of the picture is gloomy and horror-inducing.
