Just normal conversations that happen in my discord server, Ritchie is doing accessibility development for the KDE e.V,
@qdot works on the open source sex toy control project called buttplug io
Ritchie says ritchie @qdot can you explain to mr why it is it's easier to find documentation on how to program a buttplug than it is for me to find documentation on how to make a screen reader be able to read my UI because I'm in hell rn
qdot says Priorities do be weird like that
szaszm says xd number of people who enjoy buttplugs > number of devs who care about screen readers 😭
Like the #LKML is kinda shit in terms of UX but at least there are searchable indexes for it so one can just point at a specific message & comment wthout having to be granted access to it.
Not to mention that discord is #ableist af by literally preventing the use of #Screenreader-friendly browsers such as #Lynx and #dillo to work, blocking
@torproject / #Tor users and explicitly banning the use of it's #API to build better clients.
Not even a #paid-for exception is offered, thus making integration into even paid-for tools like #HootSuitenot legally possible!
Did you know that you can find God on Substack? In fact, Team Takei and God go way back. In light of the recent law requiring Louisiana classrooms to display the Ten Commandments, Team Big Picture sat down with our old friend to get the word of God directly from the source. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/god-pod-questions-answers-satire
As far as I'm concerned, your taking a seat at the conn was all the proof I needed of a kind and loving #Creator, however perfect, flawed, and/or or incomprehensible the plan may have looked at the time.
Priase the Creators! And verily, Gene and Majel do deliver upon the Promise: we can choose to do it better while keeping our Humanity.
