If AI was really as good at satisfying literary whims as some claim, I would even now be holding in my hands a copy of Shakespeare's _þe Lamentable Tragedie of Saruman þe White_.

most guitarists only know three chords and the truth. guitars georg, who knows all the chords, is an outlier and should not be counted.

Surely theft are some places that rely on the semantics of ==. I wonder if you'll fix more bugs than you create

The reason why catgirls dislike Java, is because they have vertical pupils, and thus need to rotate their head 90 degrees to take in the long class names.

@Hyolobrika I think the point of splitting off the PDS is that the accounts are cryptographicly validated repositories, which means you can move your account to a different PDS.

That should solve the <oops, my server shut down> problem that fedi has.

Unclear what the other bits do.

People also bitched that it took all of a couple hours for the account to get banned

Hi friends,

The alt-text.org alt text library project needs a new leader, I have brain cancer.

I built a working, scalable, proof of concept library of shared alt text with fuzzy matching.

I'd like to connect with the #accessibility dev community. I want to hand the project off to a team or a leader if anyone is willing to take it over.

Github: github.com/alt-text-org
WIP MVP: a site designed for writing alt text with a private library: my.alt-text.org

Boosts appreciated
