I’m not sure why this would be fake, but the word seems too straight and the paired letters too perfectly uniform to be handwriting, it looks like a font.

This is gonna bother me now.

If anybody knows of something similar I’m happy to be pointed as well. Searching “keyboard accessible keyboard” is understandably nonsense.

Yes! I am an assistive technology specialist - helping people with all kinds of disabilities access computers - and I have a laundry list of little challenges I haven’t found the right tool for.

An example to start is needing something kind of like the windows on screen keyboard but that selects letters/keys using arrows and space/enter (a lot like typing using a remote).

The osk has some special feature to not steal focus from where you’re typing, but this could instead let you do all your typing and then when you select done run a sendkeys to type in the text (could have clipboard option but this doesn’t work everywhere). This also makes correcting errors easier. Bonus if it works with text prediction same as the osk :)

Almost 40, comfortably established with no kids, so life is overall pretty easy.

I got into audiobooks on Libby and have gotten through about 400 in the last 4 years. I listen while I’m driving and sometimes while doing chores, but mostly I listen while hiking or paddling - on a weekend backpacking trip I can get through 3-5 books.

My books are almost all what I would call “human adjacent non-fiction” - science and information related to people and the planet, but I don’t find deep science like quantum physics relatable enough to be interesting.

I love to read and learn and wish more people wanted to talk about books, but book people and outdoor people don’t overlap that much.

I have a huge number of content filters, basically stopping just short of blocking the words “left” and “right” but trying to block everything else political.

What I wish I could find a way to do is pick by post language - I have nothing against a user/community, I just don’t speak (usually) German.

From my therapist: In the absence of a crystal ball the best predictor of someone’s future behavior is their past behavior.

When google asked if I wanted to try Gemini I gave it a try and the first time I asked it to navigate home, something I use assistant for almost daily, it said it can’t access this feature but we can chat about navigating home instead - fuck that!

Even though I switched back to assistant it’s still getting dumber and losing functionality - yesterday is asked it to add something to my grocery list(in keep) and it put it on the wrong list, told me the list I wanted doesn’t exist, then asked if I wanted to create the list and then told me it can’t create it because it already exists.

I’ve talk to more logical toddlers!

The first wedding I ever attended was my own…and I was 35. I somehow had friends & family who didn’t get or were already married my entire life.

Still never been to a birth or a funeral.

It’s okay to be curious about the world - wanting to understand is not the same thing as wanting to judge or prevent.

1. Friends girlfriend lent me her hiking shoes when I picked him up to go hiking having forgotten mine.

2. Payment was down at a hardware store and the manager just let me walk out with the $7 of screws I needed to finish my project that day

I’ve never tried to have what I would call a conversation, but I use it as a tool for both fixing/improving writing and for writing basic scripts in autohotkey, which it’s fairly good at.

It’s language models are good for removing the emotional work from customer service - either giving bad news in a very detached professional way or being polite and professional when what I want is to call someone a fartknocker.

You can 3D print containers that fit all kind of juice/pop/milk lids. They can be any height, but my favorite are the ones that nest almost perfectly inside giving you one bottlecap worth of storage (perfect for pills or sim/sd cards).

I’ve had my printer for 6 months and still get a kick out of this.

One that bugs me a lot that I noticed just in the last 5 years or so is over pronouncing the T in words like celebrity and community - yes it’s spelled with a T but it’s not fully voiced like you’re saying the word Tea. I noticed it first on YouTube and now in some audiobooks and even the occasional coworker.

"outlaws" also being a verb makes this title difficult to understand

When I think of growing up female again, but in the current time, it sounds terrible, but then I think of growing up male inbhe current times and it seems awful too, so I think I have to tick the "neither box" and accept I'm too old for this modern shit in any gender form.

I think people's looks and personality correspond in a few different ways.

One is that people's choices for style and personal care reflect their personality, so having fancy clothes indicate a person who cares enough about looks to put in the effort.

People also can choose to associate themselves visually with different groups, and if they identify with that group they likely have similar values, including those around personality.

Even things someone can't control, such as height, probably affect their personality because it changes the way others interact with them in society.

I work for a company that specializes in ergonomic work setups and the OTs recommend Ergocentric chairs at least 90% of the time.

They're expensive, but if you are having health issues due to sitting then your employer has a "duty to accommodate" to get you a better setup.

We also often recommend sit-stand desks because too comfy of a chair can just cause different problems from lack of movement.

I get these often and I wouldn't define them as third person but more "non-person". To me first person dreams are where I'm watching it through my eyes and Thurs person would be watching myself as I do things (like third person video games). Not even being in the dream, just a mind movie as you called it, seems like another level removed.

I wonder how much the amount of movies and video games around these days has changed this - whether dreams in the past would have only been first person because that's the only thing people had experienced.

You got me there, my brain did just jump to high O2

Giant insects and way more fires! It's happened a few times in the history of our planet.
