love when you get a replacement credit card because the old one is expiring. there is a new expiration date and cvv but those don't come in an accessible format. Now how to activate? Might try ocr things but if I get it wrong a couple of times, might get locked out.

there needs to be a course on shipping electronics to the United States. there are all sorts of rules about batteries. Just selling a used victor stream but my reading of the rules indicate I can not send it by mail.

Well, I did not think Trump would get convicted. Now I'm sort of curious how that worked. Would there not be a statute of limitations on those kind of fraud charges which occurred 8 1/2 years ago? No kind of American legal expert but pretty sure they couldn't charge him when he was president but does that extend the satute?

well, glad we have a holiday today. Not really sure why we have a holiday named after the queen of another country who has been dead for a long time but I'll take it.

okay, want a simple way to convert 32 bit float recordings to something easier to post on socials where the good quality isn't super important so something like 128 k mp3 or something. I know I can use daw tools but I din't know any of them well. just want a simple way to do this.

so QE sent me automated accessibility testing results from a property of 274 pages. they did this by integrating the DQ tools into our automation suite. They want me to comment on its effectiveness with automation. All screen shots. Surely, the DQ tool can export to a consumable format other than screen shots. I guess I will have to figure it out.

today's PSA. Carousels are horrible and should go back to whatever circle of hell they came from and stay there.

can tell black thing is starting to get older. we just did a 12 hour work day with lots of travel and he is just wiped and sleeping like he is dead. someone came to the door and he didn't even move. also, at the end, he was getting kind of sloppy. He's still good but these 12 hour days do him in.

is it just me or did doordash just get almost unusable with voice over? loses focus all the time If I open a specific place, it only opens sometimes.

okay so the dreamhost control pannel is pretty much unusable with a screen reader now. before it was a few things you couldn't do. Now I wanted to edit a dns record and can't do it with a screen reader. Jaws nvda, narrator wihth crhome or edge or firefox. Guess I could try on my phone but I don't think that site is responsive.

ordered something from CNIB smart life. I presume the print stuff in the envelope is an invoice. Think I could have gotten an accessible format of such a thing. Guess not! also, unfortunately, this does not surprise me.

why would a bank offer me a credit card limit increase to 30 thousand dollars. if I owe that much on a credit card, I am in serious trouble! Do people really need that much room on a single card. the balance is 17 bucks I think. I guess they don't make enough money off me.

well, just came back from another accessibility camp Toronto. Usual spot on the 43rd floor of an office tower downtown which is Microsoft Canada. they have a nice space and let us use it often. However exhausted now but glad I went. Saw some old friends and perhaps made a new one or two. Was a good day generally.

alright, need to see if the RIM add on for nvda still works with current release. it is listed as incompatible but need to actually connect to someone and try it.

does anyone have a mic cover for the zoom h1 essential? because the mics are exposed with no cage like the old one, even walking in a room generates a fair bit of air noise. Must find some sort of cover thingy

wow, who said this Cisco Jabber thing was an accessible soft phone. all the controls are custom. can sort of figure it out. Hope I haveforwarded it correctly to my cell phone so I don't have to deal. now got to wait for someone to call me at work to see if it works. can't call myself from the number I have it forwarded to or things will break I suspect.

trying to use the mobile passport app to enter the United states. I am on the terms and conditions screen and am stuck because the "agree" button is unavailable. I have looked carefully for a check box or something to agree to the terms but can not find it!Otherwise, the app looks like it might be fairly accessible.
