Reading this, I am immediately reminded of Al Bundy in Married with children, isn't he An American hero quite similar to Arthur Dent? Other than that I always thought of the Show King of Queens as similarly depressing, ... would be curious how that fits into the narrative of American heros
I think it is important to stress that both, color _and_ shape should be visible distinctive, and as you say it is important that the color palette is chosen in a way that even if the color does not stand out for a the color-blind person, the contrast stays visible.
Making everything monochrome is surly not more accessible, because there sure are people who find it easier to distinguish by color than shape.
Android Tablets with Mobile Internet are perfectly fine phones. I've used a LTE Samsung tablet exclusively as my only "Smart" phone for a while, and had a Dual-Sim to share the same Phone number as on my "Dumb"-phone, (Nokia 8110 4G) ...
From 2015-2019, my only mobile device was an Android tablet with no SIM card. At purchase, I signed up for a Google Voice number, and I sort of got by with VoIP service over WiFi wherever I could.
Since then, I've purchased a proper mobile phone, and I transferred my landline home phone over to that SIM card, and it's my main line now. I use my Voice number very rarely.
One of the drawbacks to SIM cards is that you can't really get the phone service mirrored or transferred to a regular computer. Sure, you can "link" the phone if it's nearby, but the service itself stays there.
I've had a number of times where I'd really like to have voice/SMS service on that number available via computer (some people I know are actually creeped out by my having two phone numbers at once), but what can you do.
I haven't traveled since the Before Times anyway, so boarding a plane with devices is the least of my worries.
That's only cosmetic filters (or at least it used to be). "I don't care about cookies" or the open source fork "I still don't care about cookies" also clicks the buttons to accept/refuse.
The best one seems to be Consent-O-Matic as it actually tries to disable all trackers, but it doesn't work on some sites/popups.
I was scratching my head why I'd want addons at all (running DNS66 on the phone, so no need for an adblocker.) but this is honestly a great idea. God how I hate the cookie banners.
Here’s one. I currently have about five or six small PRs open for bug fixes and minor features. However, they’ve languished a bit in review and haven’t been merged yet. In the meantime, I’ve started a fairly significant refactor. It’s not too complicated but involves moving files and changing some core structures. I am dreading having to rebase those open PRs!
Interesting, you can potentially use MQ for automatic rebasing as well, but if there is a merge conflict, MQ will not be able to resolve it for you. If a rebase can be automatically resolved, then MQ will update the branch for you.
