In a web app, I'm trying to do image upload with the option to use the camera or select from gallery. Currently using this code and getting this weird screen from it. Any ideas?

#webdev

<input type="file" accept="image/*">

currently using this bizarre workaround to force the normal file picker which works:

accept=".jpg,.jpeg,.png,.showFilePicker"

none of 's updates are tempting me to try again. I just found the quest design extremely dull, none of your choices really matter, it didn't even really feel like there were different approaches to combat

@joelanman I did one pass of New Game+ and got to around half way done. Somewhere I picked up a rifle that trivializes pretty much all combat to where it only takes 1-3 ammo to conclusively end most fights. I was slightly more than lukewarm on it the first time through and didn't realize how much it would ruin the game for me to have ~no danger.

Also didn't see nearly as many branching choices versus something like the faction choices in New Vegas or Oblivion, so there's no story drive for me.

Brexit would be a lot more fun if it was more literal, like James and the Giant Peach but a whole country

If LLMs just have free reign to steal, uh, 'train on' your content, what's the incentive for people to create new educational content? Like Google it's another system that will eat its own tail

What a lovely day!

trying to implement a form submission progress bar in js, but XHR follows the success redirect without telling me (I want to access it and redirect the browser).

Fetch can opt out of that but doesn't have a progress api!

I think I found a workaround for XHR:

xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {

 if (this.readyState === this.DONE) {  
 window.location.href = this.responseURL  
 this.abort()  
 }

}

Any thoughts on infinite scroll vs button to load more vs next page buttons? In the context of a feed

bernat,
@bernat@social.ei8fdb.org avatar

@joelanman I do remember reading some #a11y best practices suggesting load more/next button providing users more control.

This control was particularly needed when the infinite scroll breaks leaving the user marooned:

  1. they have to either refresh the page (and presumably loose their position in the "infinite") or

  2. scroll back up/down/up/down to try and "replicate" the scroll to try and force the page to load the next.

For me it depends on how long you're expecting someone to scroll. HTH

@bernat thanks I agree, gone with a button for now that goes to the next page. I can always enhance that in future if need be

Signal is great, but as it's burned a couple of friends recently - you do need to do a special transfer when you change phones, it doesn't just happen like WhatsApp

Intersectionality is such an important concept. You can have different aspects of privilege and oppression, trauma in different areas. They don't cancel each other out, they interact. It's important to be aware of them

@joelanman My heritage is mostly Anglo-Indian, so a mix of an oppressor and the oppressed. It's kinda messy when I think about the implications of the history there.
