completely blind computer geek, lover of science fiction and fantasy (especially LitRPG). I work in accessibility, but my opinions are my own, not that of my employer. Fandoms: Harry Potter, Discworld, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Buffy, Dead Like Me, Glee, and I'll read fanfic of pretty much anything that crosses over with one of those.

@quanin @dhamlinmusic @lynessence @pixelate @jonathan859 @mcourcel This is why Google needs to disable third party apps completely unless they're signed by Google and Google has photo ID of the developer on file and fingerprints and has done a background check and a credit check on the developer. Think of the children! arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/08/google-will-block-sideloading-of-unverified-android-apps-starting-next-year/

@quanin @dhamlinmusic @lynessence @pixelate @jonathan859 @mcourcel It could also just be an ad in a game she already plays that links out to an app that's not through the play store.

@quanin @dhamlinmusic @lynessence @pixelate @jonathan859 @mcourcel Look at this guy, assuming it's a "he" just because it's good at computers. Burn him at the stake! LOL. Anyway, this has been more than enough silliness from me. I have an actual job to accomplish.

@pixelate @dhamlinmusic @lynessence @quanin @mcourcel {shocked, awkward face} Oh! I'm sorry! Uh, well, photosynthesis...is that offensive? Because you're blind? I guess that's offensive! You can't even see photos! Sorry, sorry! I said "see". I meant hear! You can't hear the photos! I will now spend the next five minutes awkwardly apologizing while I do absolutely nothing else to make anything easier or more accessible for you.

@quanin @dhamlinmusic @lynessence @pixelate @jonathan859 @mcourcel Also, children and tweens have more time. As a parent, you have to set up the web filter and go to work and get the groceries and clean the house and so on. Your tween can spend all day other than homework and school bypassing the web filter you set up.

@dhamlinmusic @lynessence @pixelate @quanin @jonathan859 @mcourcel Now you've made me wonder if my instance is blocked by WebSense, the old content firewall my high school used. Running an http proxy for everyone at...research.dns2go.com/get/paper.php?url was I believe the address I used, so everyone could get past the firewall and look at whatever they wanted while eating up all of my home internet bandwidth. Good times!
