@christianp Yes, there is a new 8.x.x version out for every PHP version from 8.2 to 8. whatever the latest is. 8.5.12 is the one from today and yes, you should upgrade to that. I guess it depends on when it goes into Ubuntu repos, maybe. www.php.net/ChangeLog-8.php#8.5.12

@AwetTesfaiesus Ich bin immer überrascht, dass großen Kapitalisten nicht klar ist, dass auch die Löhne eine Investition ins eigene Unternehmen sind. Je höher sie ausfallen, desto mehr Geld ist im System, desto besser geht es Firmen. Das ist gar nicht so kompliziert.

Verein-BF also. Auf der Startseite ist die größte Überschrift eine H5. Das Formular um Mitglied zu werden hat gar keine H1 auf der Seite. Das sind beides keine Katastrophen. Aber wenn dann noch dazu kommt, dass Select-Elemente keinen Accessible Name haben, dann fühle ich mich nicht so super […]

@murtaugh I currently use Tonspur and Absorb with my Audiobookshelf installation, but I'm not fully happy with either. (Absorb is a heavily "vibe coded" app, and it shows. Tonspur is a side project, and that shows as well.) I have used Castro in the past and Pocket Casts, but fell out of love […]

I asked my partner to smack me in the face (at least verbally) if I ever go off the rails. Apparently a lot of guys need more supportive partners.

@AmeliaBR @joshtumath The worst thing is when you think “that is a bad idea” and then realize it’s your own idea from 6 years ago. 😅 Luckily it does not happen that often.

<output> is mostly a shorter way to write <div role="status">, which itself is a shorter way to write <div aria-live="polite" aria-atomic="true">. So technically, according to the first rule of ARIA, you should always use output instead of specifying the ARIA attributes.

I’m honestly annoyed that I need to fail sites for not announcing inline error messages, as I think filling everything out and then getting directed to errors on submit is the much better way to do it. But I’m not here to bend WCAG my way, so I fail those error messages.

Most people don't do accessibility for disabled people. This is just a fact. But developers love to cling on technology: "Let's do stuff for screen readers!" "Here is a widget for making stuff more accessible." If you mechanize accessibility, people are interested. That's where the whole "do […]
