Being #blind is fun. Just encountered a visual captcha with no audio option. So I used JAWS Picture Smart to get AI to read me the text of the visual clue, which I typed in and got through. So basically I'm a human who needs a robot to prove to another robot that I am not a robot. Without my robot, the other robot would have thought I was a robot. Also I was trying to make a payment on my PAP machine, which really should in itself indicate that I am not a robot. #Disability #Disabled

A Cylon might need a CPAP machine.

@VulcanTourist I will be honest I Googled this one. Always meant to watch BSG but never got around to it

My wife and I are watching it again just now. I don't know how well it can "play" for a sightless person.

I don't think I persisted to the end the first time, so eventually some of it might be entirely new. I'm of course referring to the 2004 remake, but I did fully watch the original as a teenager. There is good and bad with the liberties taken by the remake.

@VulcanTourist Oh I have access to the audio description track, so it should be fine to watch. I just haven’t gotten around to it

I find myself rooting for the fortunes of both some of the ill-fated humans as well as a few of the enlightened Cylons.
