Check out this great segment from CBS. It features Jordyn Zimmerman who is nonspeaking, and uses Live Speech on iPad to communicate. Our team created this feature to help give everyone a voice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTECNar9yG4

I’ve realized it’s physically impossible to demonstrate how to ride a bike when the only bike available is one for 8 year olds. So anyway, he took to it quite well. Sat on it, wore the helmet with no sensory issues, even peddled forward-ish some of the time and steered. Balancing is going to be hard to teach. He’s sort of kind of got the concept of “brakes” but I wouldn’t trust him to use them.

@andymoose are there any groups where you live that offer a training class. That really helped my kiddo.

I did a lot of thinking and Autistic Bookshop needs to diversify it's income sources.

30% profit at an average of $1.97 on book sales means the store will never pay for itself.

So I created a merch collection to help.

I had some reading and writing themed designs already, so will add more later.

Google should eventually bring people to this once the store has built up some authority, which is mainly how a merch collection will help.

@rachaelspooky They should have offered you a few emergency pills. That’s what they’ve done for me in the past with meds where I can’t skip a dose.

to this day, i have no idea what rhubarb tastes like. it's been for so long one of those weird things euroamericans eat, that am afraid to taste it and be ghastly disappointed in my notion that, yup, doesn't taste good at all.

Does anyone know where to find a cast iron electric waffle maker? Ours has a tefflon coating and I would like to no longer consume those particles. While modern PTFE is better there are still health risks with what is still in there. I was once at a hotel that had a cast iron waffle maker that flips. Everyone I’ve aeen for sale is not cast iron. The best I can find is a commercial unit for $$$$ https://www.wafflepantry.com/liege-waffle-maker/krampouz-brussels-waffle-iron-WECDBAAS.html

I suppose the cheap option is to buy the kind thats just plates with handles and put them in the oven.

Any suggestions for authenticator apps that don’t cloud sync, extract data, phone home to Mountain View, or similar?

Thanks in advance.

johne,
@johne@denvr.social avatar

@neurovagrant The other possibility would maybe be the two factor totp functionality built into 1 Password, but that does integrate with their servers. I believe it’s zero knowledge though. sorry, in advance if thats not exactly what you were asking for.

Wait, DPD isn't going to arrest student protestors again on Auraria not because it's 1st Amendment protected speech, but because of a pissing match and optics?

"Chief Thomas also blamed campus leadership for dropping the ball in the aftermath of mass arrests during a sweep on April 26 when tents were not cleaned up from the encampment, allowing demonstrators to quickly rebuild."

yay, breaking plastic taking apart Mini’s door panel to adjust window. Hinestly broke less than I’d expect, so far. pics soon

Maybe a Jawa and Grogu can help.

@johne@denvr.social avatar

broke nothing else but my sanity. after getting it all apart, i spent another 20 minutes trying to find a torx socket and adapter I dropped. I finally found it in the last place I looked.
To be clear, the tools fell as I pulled out from a hole (that's what she said) to loosen a bolt that holds the glass in the window track. I pulled that speak out not noticing the tools were stuck to the back of it.🙃

johne,
@johne@denvr.social avatar

I still don’t know why the window doesnt fully seal against rubber trim.

johne,
@johne@denvr.social avatar

Definitely better, but none of my tools slide between the door skin and the glass to reach the other window adjusters.
While working on this I discovered that my little rolly stool's seat is breaking away from the shaft. (That's what she said.)

can't remember what Luke's hover doohickey is called, but this special effect really blew us away back then and, JFC it's amazing how all of the special effects are still as fresh as they were back in 1977

Quite happy with this little make.

I've been seeing earplug earrings in the "cool/weird earrings" and EDM scenes, but I hadn't seen a detachable version. Since I make and wear different earrings constantly, and I have specifically nice earplugs, I made my own with some cute anodized findings I had. Works a treat.

No I don't sell jewelry online. I sell lasercutting files and consign locally in Portland, Oregon, USA. If there's interest I might write up a tutorial tho.

An earring shaped like a lightning bolt, held at an angle by a hand. The earring is attached to a dangling earplug by a short length of chain and a lobster clasp finding.

@LaserMistress There are a few that would be great, but Millennium Falcon or X-wing earings would be perfect. Is that something I could hire you to make as SVG file(s)? I’m horrible at image editing and drawing in general. Regardless, I’ll likey purchase at least one of your files on Etsy.
