@TechConnectify I hate change too. I usually pay with a credit card, but sometimes I have to pay with cash and end up with coins I don't want. Don't even need them for laundry or parking meters.
@jentaub Anytime I know I might have to wait, I bring my ereader. If I have to wait unexpectedly I can read on my phone. If I eat alone, I read. And I always read before I go to sleep.
LOL, you've got being an asshole down pretty good yourself. Jesus, lighten up a bit. (Yes, I need to as well.)
Then put "Sorry, I can't think of alt text for this photo" or "Sorry, I don't have time to write meaningful alt text for this." At least then people know you're aware of alt text.
Or don't. I don't care enough to stop following you or to block you if you don't. But don't be surprised then if people try to tell you about alt text.
See I knew you were smart enough to figure out how to do alt text. Good job!
Do the best you can do in a few seconds. A photo you just took that's just of some paint you splattered on a canvas? "Photo I just took of splattered paint."
Alt text isn't a homework assignment, it's something useful to some people and nice of you to provide.
How about:
"Number 1, 1949" painting by Jackson Pollock
or:
"Convergence" painting (1991) by Jackson Pollock
or:
"Alchemy" painting (1947) by Jackson Pollock
"Paint splattered on a canvas" isn't helpful but you're smart enough to have known that already.
Alt text doesn't have to be perfect, but it doesn't hurt you to make an effort, at least not too much, does it?
Don't know the title? "A painting by Jackson Pollock (sorry don't know title)."
@Shrexios Shoot me a text with your current address and a time and we'll figure it out. Or am I misremembering that you moved again?
@Shrexios The 12th works. A dónde quieres ir?
