Radio producer in the ministry of information of Kuwait, Accessibility advocate, coffee lover! I love technology, reading, TV shows, movies, deep conversations, and more! This is just a glimpse. Feel free to follow and enjoy my journey on here.
@jakobrosin Thank you so much, really appreciate it!
I really miss blindy.tv!
If you’re not familiar, blindy.tv was a playlist that consisted of four radio stations. Each station was a TV channel of its own, focusing on a specific category. If I’m not mistaken, the categories were documentaries, comedy, sci-fi, and fantasy. Of course, all of the broadcasted shows where audio described. It was a blast while it was around.
@jakobrosin This is awesome! I’ll definitely check it out! Sadly, I think that I missed the live stream.
I wanted to view the #Artemis mission data at a glance in an accessible way. So I created myself a dashboard. Including, among other things, a sonified live flight path. Vibecoded this within 2 hours so its likely full of bugs, also a lot of the live data from Nasa is not live yet. If you want, you can check it out here.

Artemis II Mission Tracker

Track NASA's Artemis II crewed mission around the Moon in real time. Live telemetry, mission timeline, crew bios, and spacecraft data.

@pawpower @pixelate I’m really sorry to hear that.
I hope that both of you will find better jobs!
This really sucks and it unfortunately affects a lot of people
I don’t understand how a decision like this is taken lightly without a thought of the people affected by it

[Edit]: The form, at least on the respondent side, is usable (thanks @matt ). The general problem of huge lack of accessibility with most of these sort of services which are now being endorsed in lieu of 365/workspace is still very worrying though, IMO.

"Today we are very proud to announce that the United Nations has switched from Google Forms to CryptPad Form for collecting endorsements on the UN Open Source Principles: "

Welp, guess blind people are left out of that too! If CryptPad Forms is about as accessible as their documents, sheets and presentation editors, we're well and truly fucked. But it's like, great. And open-source. And respectful and encrypted. And good. Just plain good. Accessibility just, isn't one of its features. Oh well.

Hey guys!
I’m looking for a good RSS reader on iOS.
Lire is acting up with feedly and it’s giving me 429/405 errors.
Do you guys have any recommendations?
Thank you.
I want to personally say to a YouTube engineer's face that I never want to have shorts or playables in my feed. Not next week, never. I will still think the same in 40 years if I still remember what shorts and playables are.
@evilcookies98 I love Trivia! I’ll make sure to check it out. Is it a web app?
Yawn. Yay for a sore throat and lack of sleep Thats all.
