“Things happen”

The call is coming from inside the house.

Agreed. But he talks like a gangster.

That, and they like how he’s gangster.

“I knew this was wrong and only did it because I thought I had fascist immunity”

Absolutely everything is going to shit. God damn.

They look burned on, so they are possibly technically carcinogenic too.

I actually hope any and all Epstein docs end up in all aggregated AI training data sets.

This is a really awkward way to be reminded of Flipboard.

Thread.

Threads is the Twitter like social media platform run by Meta that has some ActivityPub (mastodon) support.

Hell yeah.

Thread and Matter. I only started getting serious when HomeKit started supporting thread. And then when matter came around I started only getting things that support both.

It’s the future, but it’s not something I would encourage anyone with working systems to upgrade to. It’s perfect for new people to get in on. And perfect to slowly transition to. But matter still has a long way to go to support all possible device types and functions.

If you are asking Home assistant users, then your response will be more mixed. But for people using HomeKit and Google Home, it’s the future and promises more interoperability and more options for affordable accessories that don’t require using Homeassistant or vendor apps.

I hate vendor apps. And even with homeassistant making lots of progress in usability, it’s still a bit of a no-go for your average person. I say this as someone who owns official home assistant hardware for supporting needs. Most of my day to day interactions and automations still happen via HomeKit native tho.

Yes, but a pardon implies the process worked. And I think it’s important because sane people will understand the outcome.

But I guess, as others have pointed out, that’s not justice. So prosecution post the possibility of pardon does make sense.

What a fucked up situation.

“Anyway”? So it’s not worth following through on?

She must hang out on Reddit, cuz this sounds like a Reddit comment.

I hope it sticks.

Don’t be shy, throw it on the pile of world changing predictions for 2027:

• China invades Taiwan
• Alien disclosure happens
• Trump ends democracy
• The singularity occurs
• Solid state batteries enter the market
• The year of Linux on the desktop

These are all real predictions. Except for maybe the Linux one. I’m not shit posting. And the list could go on, I’m just not remembering more of them right now.

Edit: y’all are no fun. And to be clear, I was NOT refuting the person I replied to. I am merely pointing out that we have a bumpy road ahead.

The thing is, you need to make proper PDFs with properly structured content with proper metadata for screen readers to be able to access the content in the PDF in a logical and sane way. This is what the OP is tasked to do, and why they are looking for help. So I’m not sure what you mean by “try just using screen readers.”

I’m dealing with this right now too.

My advise is to ditch the PDFs where possible, and go with HTML documents. They are far easier to make accessible. The down side is you can’t easily pass them around in a self contained way that isn’t a bit wonky compared to a PDF or DOCX. But if you just link to them in a course, or otherwise expect students to just access them in a browser, HTML pages can work well.

PDFs have always been a nightmare, and the new accessibility rules are making thousands of people in education finally realize that.

I really hope they can set a great example for the rest of the country.

I was taught by various sources that the reason there is some truth to the idea that democrats and republicans are the same is that they are both participating in perpetuating and spreading neoliberalism. That’s the point of view I have. Do you disagree with that?

I’m not trying to redefine anything, I’m expressing a point of view. From what I can tell, republican/democrat and neoliberal are not mutually exclusive terms.
