@pixelate Usage of Linux by blind users has been deprecated with the move to Wayland. Yes, solutions are WIP. No, they are not functional today. And the distros have made it clear that they have no qualms about leaving blind users in the gutter.
Appalling, disgusting, and incredibly disenfranchising. Why would blind users ever return after being forced out?

does anyone need a set of 4K movie film scanners
if you have a need for a cinema film scanner (or can give it a good home!), and can arrange to have it transported from the Seattle area, message me on fedi or e-mail me at [email protected]
@shlee @ffmancera This, exactly. Many people seem to feel that what they lack in skills can be compensated for with decibels. Professionals don't take advice from amateurs.
Also, Phoronix is literally a shitposting forum. Many, many trolls. Absolutely not a serious place to gather any sentiment.
@cadey Re: cables, I totally agree and I have a pro-tip: use a braided / cloth cable (something with discernible texture) for your phone. You will be able to feel around for it without even opening your eyes, and zero hospital equipment uses that texture.
