I must confess that I cannot see a use for Apple Vision Pro for any sane human, unless they want to try to convince people of their total insanity by waving their hands around at objects no one else can see. It just seems like an overpriced paperweight to me.

If you would rather feed your addictions than your children, you’re a bad parent. If you routinely crush your children’s dreams because they dream of being something you could never be, you’re a bad parent. If your children stay locked in their rooms all of the time out of fear of encountering you Because they know you’ll shame them or find some other way to make them feel worthless, you’re a bad parent. If you routinely lie to your children and treat them like your own personal piggy bank just so you can feed your addictions, you’re a bad parent. If you deliberately do things your children hate just because you know they hate them, you’re a bad parent. If you inflict your children with lifelong trauma, just because you feel like it, you’re a bad parent. Yes, I’m speaking from firsthand experience.

Levels of telling NVDA to shut up. Shift key, hold that thought. Control key, I get it, now be quiet. NVDA+S, just, shut, up, already!

I was just told my device needs to support wireless Bluetooth to communicate with my display. I’ve never heard of wired Bluetooth.

@evilcookies98@dragonscave.space avatar

@dhamlinmusic I have both, although my Jaws is in 40 minute mode until I get more money. I’m liking this display already, and the keyboard is awesome. The keys don’t take a lot of pressure to press in and they’re quiet.

Kaliah,

@evilcookies98 I haven't, either. That's weird

Funny thing number two from the disaster with the computer, be my AI was trying to be useful and help me figure out where the menu options were, except it kept telling me to look at the cursor

Sometimes I want to murder dictation for misunderstanding me, but this time was hilarious. What I actually said was macOS. It heard macho ass

What company say versus what they actually mean.
Your call is important to us actually means we don’t care about you or your problems and we just want you on the phone so you have to pay us money.
We value your feedback actually means we don’t give a crap about anything you say, but making you fill out this form makes us look good.
It’s on our roadmap actually means we are never going to do it and we don’t care what any of our users think.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention actually means we hear you, but we don’t care.
We will look into this actually means we will file your issue in some corner and totally forget about it.
We value your privacy, actually means we are collecting everything about you ever and we are going to sell it to all of our advertising partners.

rooktallon,

@evilcookies98 Then you've most definitely have had some terrible experiences then certainly. Sorry to hear that and I definitely don't blame you for your frustration towards the process. I'm just speaking from the perspective of one who did this kind of work. I understand why it may be that some might not really want to listen as I've gone through those kinds of calls myself where I'll be the customer on the phone and the agent just writes me off. Just so you know where I'm coming from.

@rooktallon like I said, 10 years ago, I would not have said that because more people actually tried in those days. In the past several years, I have dealt with the following. A bank representative hung up on me because I asked why our spending limits were changed without disclosure. this same bank hung up on me a different time because they found out I had no vision. PayPal has refused to help on three separate occasions. Spotify wasted an hour of my time by parroting back exactly what I had just told them. Apple blatantly refused to file a bug report because I did not have the latest hardware. The national library service wouldn’t even pick up the phone for three weeks. TikTok refused to help me appeal a wrongful ban because I could not do it in the app due to their bad accessibility. YouTube refuses to admit their algorithms may be at fault for punishing small creators more so than big ones. Now compare that to 10 years ago when I had the following experiences. The humanware representative stayed on the phone with me for two hours. Trying to figure out why my BrailleNote Apex kept crashing. An Apple representative tried to help me figure out why that same BrailleNote would not connect to my school iPad. Another humanware representative did not attempt to make me feel like an idiot when I had accidentally turned off my thumb keys, not knowing that could be done. Yet another humanware representative exhausted all options before having to take away my book reader for several weeks when the internal memory chip corrupted.

How to be instantly infuriated before bed. Step one, remember that you don’t have Audible installed on your main phone. Step two, go download it. Step three, try to sign in with your account. Step four, be told authentication is required and have an image only captcha pop-up.

How to quickly disconnect from a team talk server. Step one, focus the team talk window. Step 2, press f2. How not to quickly disconnect from a team talk server. Step one, press f2 from within the tweesecake window

pitermach,

@evilcookies98 You want a more extreme example? Back in the day when Klango Player was a thing, it had a global hotkey, CTRL+Alt+K, to bring it to foreground from anywhere. This was also the hotkey to ban someone from a TeamTalk server, and for some reason that took priority. So you can imagine my surprise, trying to bring up Klango while I was in TeamTalk, and nothing was happening. Well except people leaving for no reason which was od. But I didn't connect the dots until I eventually banned myself as well (don't ask how that's even something you could do)

Got an Apple TV looking for a new home. It’s the HD model with 32 gig of storage. Comes with the original remote, the original power, cord, and the original box. I don’t have a lightning cable for the remote or an HDMI cable. Asking $50 or best offer, and I’ll need a hand with shipping because no funds

glaroc,

@evilcookies98 I can give you 60 plus shipping I about 2 weeks. Do you have a Pay Pal? We can also talk privately about logistics.`````

Hot take, game developers should always either a, allow us to turn the music completely off or be, provide us with track listing, so YouTube will get off our cases

bgtlover,

@evilcookies98 depends, how much are you willing to spend? however, you can still try tilvids, you don't need to import all your youtube stuff at once, you import afew things, then make the new things available only on peertube, or something like that

@bgtlover I want to get everything into a safe place before YouTube decides to delete my account for no good reason

If they really want to let us customize our smart devices, they’ll make a way for us to program in our own wake words. With the way mine love to not pay attention, hey stupid is a more apt wake up phrase than any of the ones they give us

You know, as many companies as I’m sure we would all like to tear in half, I say we start up a podcast feed for it. We can all have the login information and post whenever a platform is giving us trouble and needs to be called out.

celrock,

@evilcookies98 Oooh! That's a great idea!

evilcookies98,
@evilcookies98@dragonscave.space avatar

@celrock I thought of doing it like that because other people use platforms, I don’t use, and they can find problems. I’m not going to see. I don’t care who calls people out as long as they get called out. If an enough people make enough noise, they’ll have to fix it.

Good job, Clubhouse, you’ve won the lying through your teeth and emails award. Let’s see how you like being called out for it. If there’s one thing I can’t stand it’s a liar.

Doug73,

@evilcookies98
The problem is 5 or 10 random people making a bunch of noise doesn't effect them. Its not like they are making or losing money off the fact that you can't use clubhouse anymore.

@Doug73 maybe not, but they will be losing money off the discrimination suit
