So ...let's face it. A LOT of folks in tech circles are somewhat amazed a fully #blind person can even find the power button on a computer, let alone operate it professionally. I am such a person, and I'd like to bust that myth.
It's also true that many #hacking tools, platforms, courses etc. could use some help in the #accessibility department. It's a neverending vicious circle.
Enter my new twitch channel, IC_null. On this channel, I will be streaming #programming and #hacking content including THM, HTB and who knows what else, from the perspective of a #screenReader user.
What I need, is an audience. If this is something you reckon you or anybody you know might be interested in, drop the channel a follow or share this post. Gimme that #infoSec Mastodon sense of comradery and help me out to make this idea an actual thing :) https://twitch.tv/ic_null #tryHackMe #streamer #selfPromo

Fully blind person hacking, coding and tinkering while using a screen reader. THM, HTB, accessibility, all the things.

@zersiax I'm really curious about this, especially since today's user interfaces are often completely inconsistent and unforgiving. My phone often works against me instead of for me and I can see.
@norbipeti @zersiax when I had eye surgery I made the text on my phone just slightly bigger than the default and suddenly a ton of websites became literally unusable, like modals I couldn't dismiss hiding everything and text becoming cut off with no way to see the rest. Instead of making the web more accessible we've just made it inaccessible to even more people
@lori @norbipeti yup, I see this a lot as an accessibility auditor. And those are public-facing websites. Talking to developers who make stuff for developers is even more fun because like I said ...it's anywhere from " do blind people even computer?" to "It's possibly maybe on our roadmap ...maybe". Generally a lot of acute cases of #NotMyProblemDotCom
