Leimi | 7 years ago | on: Firefox Developer Tools: Accessibility inspector

Great to see browsers adding accessibility in their devtools since a few months!

One thing I don't understand here: why is the Accessibility tab not shown by default? Accessibility is something lots of developers don't even know about. I'm sure having the tab visible by default would help greatly in making developers more aware of it.

Hey, great. I'd think it would be on par with the x220 or x230 given the same SSD or RAM.

How hard was it to install the LED backlight mod?

From the recent rumors it seems the retro will "just" be a 2017 thinkpad + old keyboard. Cool, but not enough for me.

I guess I got my expectations too high when Lenovo put out surveys asking about screen ratio, status led, thinklights, etc. a couple years ago.

This X62 seems like a perfect machine. I'm impressed such a mod made by enthusiasts exists and can actually be bought today.

Meanwhile the Retro Thinkpad, made by Lenovo, seems to be quite a disappointment by just having an old keyboard put on a new thinkpad.

I'm on a x201s since years because I honestly can't find a better machine on the market today (trackpoint, 16/10, great keyboard, matte screen with decent resolution to work, solid as rock, easy to maintain).

Anytime a friend asks me for a cheap laptop buying advice, I tell them to get a used thinkpad. Just add some RAM, SSD and battery if necessary and voila, you have a solid machine that will last you years for less than 400€ total.

> Are you saying use <div class="heading"> vs <h1> or even <span class="bold"> instead of <b> or <strong>? because if so I disagree. Just on accessibility grounds this is a terrible idea.

Nothing stops you from styling classes in your CSS while still using meaningful tags in your HTML :)

Nice! This is actually a lot better than the drawingboard!

Sad I didn't stumble upon it a few months ago while I was searching for something like this.

The .be is actually here for a play on words on the french sentence "j'ai une grosse teube", "teube" meaning... what it means.

you can set a `background` option when creating a drawingboard - if I did things well, setting it as the base64 string should do it!

Oh, never stumbled upon literallycanvas - it's cool! Don't know if I'd have made drawingboard.js if I knew it on the first place.

Yeah there's still a bit of work to do on the paint can.

Hey, Comic Sans fits perfectly here, don't you think? :)

Thanks! By default the base64 string of the canvas image is stored in session storage to make the canvas persistent.
