oh dear. i do NOT need any more headphones. subscribes anyway because headphones.

I was never so glad I’d bought a normal telly as the week I spent in a rental with a “smart” one.

ok, thanks. this is the kind of info i’m looking for. disappointed to hear but better to know.

Self-hosting on Mumble isn’t going to help me join existing communities on Discord, is it? I already have an over-abundance of opportunities to talk to myself ;P

I am careful that way. Thanks for this.

“propitiatory indexing” is a delightful autocorrect :)

My central and autonomic nervous systems. Mine are shite and have been since I was wee. Even a clean reinstall of the original operating system would likely help a ton, but if the open source community could go through the files and find the all the bugs, who knows what I could make of my life. At the very least I’d be able to work again.

Has fond memories of the Yahoo Answers Etiquette section.

Back when I had a two bed flat I used to joke about hosting political escapees from the US. Best I can offer now is space in the back garden for a tent. The council insists on calling these cottages “amenities housing”, but that only works if you consider a walk in shower because there isn’t enough room for a tub an amenity [lolsob]

If you can manage a visa though, I’ll be your nana. Can you cook? I gave up on account of the number of pots I was ruining.

Ad blockers are my best disability accommodation. The things they do with ads to capture attention f with my brain. I’m really going to struggle if this happens. And I’m dependent on the internet for so many things, from groceries to prescriptions to people.

oh, that seems clever. thank you :)

edit: easy too, am chuffed with my new wee bit of knowledge, thanks

I have photosensitivity. I need to get animated emojis off my screen as quickly as possible since they bring me closer to my seizure threshold.
Think of it like a cup. Skimming quickly past a few animated emojis won’t fill the cup on their own, but if it’s already full from other things, even that little bit is a risk for it spilling over into a seizure. If I were to try to read a lengthy post with animated emojis, forget it.
Laugh at me if it makes you feel superior. You probably are.
