Right now there is a bit left to be desired when it comes to lemmys accessibility features, but it’s a good idea to be mindful of the fact the fediverse and its platforms tends to have pretty universal accessibility features that will likely come to lemmy sooner rather than later
Is the image purely decorative/e.g. if the picture never loaded does the audience miss out on some piece of information? If not then empty alt text suffices (this is less applicable to social media posts)
Otherwise imagine you have this picture and you’re telling somebody on the phone about it.
You’re not going to go into a full description of every element
“a small child on the left side of the picture is picking up a maple leaf with their index and thumb and handing it to the person on their right” who is a 50-60 year old woman with dirty strawberry hair and wearing horn rimmed glasses”
That’s too much and doesn’t “convey” the photo.
And you wouldn’t say “kid hands something to another person” since that’s not enough.
Let’s say you have an article about the fall and all the fun activities families can partake in. What matters is that it’s a young kid showing their grandma a leaf.
So something like this “Young child and grandmother at City Park. He is handing her a newly fallen leaf”
Or, if it’s an article about children nature education programs then it may say
“Teacher and a student in the park. The student is presenting a maple leaf to the teacher”
If it’s a post about your kid it may say
“Timmy showing his grandma a leaf he found while playing at City Park”
Researchers have mapped how clusters of nerve cells in the brain connect to regulate wakefulness, which could open doors to new treatments for people in comas
STS (Secure Time Seeding) uses server time from SSL handshakes, which is fine when talking to other Microsoft servers, but other implementations put random data in that field to prevent fingerprinting.
Exactly. Anybody like the Mule absolutely wreaks havoc.
And he even account for situations like that with a backup plan.
The entire point is that he can predict the overall movement of mankind and with it be specific to some events and some times.
So any one person who everything hinges on just undoes the entire psychohistory.
On the flip side… in the end the books show that even if you’re as good as Hari Sheldon that the universe has a way to randomly throwing wrenches in the works.
Probably not need but it would be helpful when determine where to apply what limited resources (time, staff, ship location) is most needed for a given mission
Feel free to list a few video games from different genres. Best is definitely subjective and I’m sure there are many “Best” games for various categories....
It truly is a masterpiece. And one that you only ever truly experience in it’s purest form once.
All the “gates” are knowledge based. So you’re exploring and learning and pulling on threads to various pieces of information and as you do you’re piecing together both the narrative but also the giant puzzle that is the solar system.
Once you know something… you know it. And so there’s always, with good reason, a dire warning to avoid spoilers because you can’t unlearn something.
There’s also a beautifully woven story and the feelings I felt playing that was something else.
I highly recommend it. It’s so masterfully done. I’ve got a list of people I plan on sharing it with when it next goes on sale it’s that good.
As I understand it. LEDs work on PWM. The controllers should regulate it as needed.
So it’s changed from 120 to whatever internal DC current is needed and that’s cycled.
When you use a dimmer you’re lowering/raising that 120v which is messing with the bulbs AC/DC converter which is designed to take 120 and output the applicable DC current for whatever LEDs it has on the circuit.
It definitely won’t adjust the PWM rate or brightness except in some extreme range and I’d personally avoid it unless you have some bulb that says it’s fine (e.g. doing something clever to adjust the DC based on the AC input)
Best fortune
