Alright, I stuck around for long enough. The third party app ban will be my leaving this platform, once the clients I use no longer work. If you want to keep in touch, send me a dm and we’ll work out the best way to do that.

PSA for blind M1/M2 Mac users. There is currently no accessible way to reset your Mac’s password through the recovery environment. Insure to set up a secondary administrator account with a password you will absolutely not have to reset

For anyone looking to join #mastodon after #elonMusk has very much wrecked #twitter, I am now hosting a public instance. It's at cyberhideaway.online if you're interested. If you have questions, please just ask. Happy to help out!

I ended up switching to using my Shadow instead of a local vm for windows access on Linux, only because I wanted the better battery life. Also my vms seem to run a hell of a lot slower on wayland than they did when using xorg. I'm not sure why, but this is fine.
Good, you're a shit parent.

And sold out!!! xitter.cf/CStar_OW/status/158920… Surprised at how quickly the paid beta drivers sold out, but dang that was a huge success in terms of the number of different chromebooks the audio driver is being tested on now :D

Does anyone know of a way I can get function keys in windows without having function keys on my keyboard? Pressing fn plus numbers acts as special keys.

Do iPads support USB braille displays? Doesn't seem to work for me.
Apple watch lasts far longer than Pixel Watch in the battery department.
