but yes, can already hear the inevitable soundbites of "yes, the country gave us a clear message that we're not fascist ENOUGH, so we need to make sure to deliver even more on the people's priorities like MONSTERING ASYLUM SEEKERS..."

AI hallucination of the day.

Matched only by AI's attempt at alt text for this image.

For those who actually need alt text: it's an AI mangling the concept of illustrating the broad eras of the web.

@jonhicks @malarkey i can't wait for Lizz and the PopTarts to now go fully mental about how this just shows the time has come for their brand of TRUE (extreme right) conservatism

"oh but my local tory councillor is a lovely person doing great work in the community..." doesn't matter. they're still part of a party that has completely and utterly shagged this country for the last 14 years, a party that welcomes racists, islamophobes, tax dodgers, sexual predators with open arms, gave you , , systematically dismantled the ... if your local councillor is such a stand-up person, ask yourself why...

Native keyboard scrollable areas are not coming to the next Chrome (again):
https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40113891#comment63

The gag is that I keep updating this post by adding more question marks and confirming Safari appears to be doing nothing:
https://adrianroselli.com/2022/06/keyboard-only-scrolling-areas.html#Update08

Sadly, tabindex / role / accName until both Chrome and Safari fix this.

My 300 word briefest, throwawayiest blog post in forever got a 15 minute video and this was not my doing:

The post:

Vertigo Effect (Dolly Zoom). Today I decided to rest a little and play with effects in Unreal Engine 5. Simple value change operations with Camera Field Of View and Target Arm Length on Spring Arm Component

@maxim would be cool for, say, item interactions or dialogs to do a proper goodfellas dolly zoom, keeping the character size exactly the same but "zooming" tighter to the object/npc you're interacting with

PSA: :only-child. :last-child, :first-child in ignore text nodes ... so if you have something like <li>some text <a href="#">and a link</a></li> but you're trying to only target list items that ONLY contain a link and nothing else, li > a:only-child will still apply to the above...

now that my "Why are my live regions not working?" blog post is out https://tetralogical.com/blog/2024/05/01/why-are-my-live-regions-not-working/ ... working on the next ones in the series: "Why am I always so tired?" and "Why bother?"

This is the way.

@ media (hover: hover)  
 a:hover { ... }  
}

@mikemai2awesome

@media@mastodon.social (any-hover: hover} {  
 a:hover { ... }  
}

(which may not address the original problem, but the point is it's not always about the primary input only)
