To make matters even worse, at every turn, the people in charge have lied to us, told us not to believe what we’ve seen with our own eyes, and pushed increasingly aggressive and antagonistic tactics, including impeding investigations by local authorities.
Thanks Bill. We’ve all been waiting at the edge of our seats for your press release.
And it’s the most milquetoast response possible
Bill: “Time for big Willie to step in…”
Typing: “Bad things are bad and we shouldn’t do them. We should do good things.”
Bill: “Nailed it.”
😂 😂 😂
Bubba want to go on record. I keep thinking If this had happened in the 90’s jimmy carter would have shown up.
Inaccessible images of web content are ruining the web.
Post needs link to source.
Images of text break much that text alternatives do not. Losses due to image of text lacking alternative such as link:
- usability
- we can’t quote the text without pointless bullshit like retyping it or OCR
- text search is unavailable
- the system can’t
- reflow text to varied screen sizes
- vary presentation (size, contrast)
- vary modality (audio, braille)
- accessibility
- lacks semantic structure (tags for titles, heading levels, sections, paragraphs, lists, emphasis, code, links, accessibility features, etc)
- some users can’t read the image due to lack of alt text (markdown image description)
- users can’t adapt the text for dyslexia or vision impairments
- systems can’t read the text to them or send it to braille devices
- web connectivity
- we have to do failure-prone bullshit to find the original source
- we can’t explore wider context of the original message
- authenticity: we don’t know the image hasn’t been tampered
- searchability: the “text” isn’t indexable by search engine in a meaningful way
- fault tolerance: no text fallback if
- image breaks
- image host is geoblocked due to insane regulations.
Contrary to age & humble appearance, text is an advanced technology that provides all these capabilities absent from images.
- usability
Thoughts and prayers
Thanks Bubba.
Fun fact: when you’re president (or the nominee of a major party), it’s nowhere NEAR “just a few” moments.
It’s MANY moments and Bubba and his wife doing catastrophically poorly in most of theirs and STILL dominating how the supposed opposition party operates to this day is a MAJOR reason why full blown fascism was allowed to take hold in and now take over the federal government.
TL;DR: Shut up and go away, Clintons, you’re very much complicit! 🖕🤬🖕
Oh no he SLAMMED Trump. Fascism is over boys. How brave of him.
Fucking clown.
So many sternly worded letters going around this week. I’m sure that will make all the difference!
🙄
It’s funny how so many people are willing to write letters but none of these powerful people are willing to go there, see for themselves what’s happening and speak about it.
They all talk big but they never, ever put themselves anywhere near harms way. Not even politically, let alone physically.
Everyone knows the “all it takes for bad to prevail is for good people to do nothing” quote or whatever it is. The Democrats are the living embodiment of that saying. As long as they get re-elected and still have their money they couldn’t care less.
It’s all performative so they get their 5 minutes in the headlines without doing anything of substance. They had their chance to legislate protections against big money in politics and prevent this fascist dictatorship, but like all neo-liberals chose to do the bare minimum to be reelected.
Pretty sure no rich and powerful people would actually be in harm’s way, even if they did go there.
