Amazon.com Keyboard Shortcuts... I just noticed that Amazon.com now has a few built in keyboard shortcuts. I am using Jaws and the Google Chrome browser. Please note, with Jaws, you do not have to turn off the virtual cursor or any changes have to be made. The keyboard shortcuts just work! Here are the shortcuts. ALT+/, Go to search. Shift+alt+C, go to cart. Shift+alt+H, go to home. Shift+alt+O, go to list of orders. That's it. Some is better than nothing. I know I will be using them! Happy shopping. #Amazon #Windows #Jaws #Keyboard #Shortcuts #Blind #Accessible
I am putting this out there again. I'm actively job hunting. My special interest is reintegration after incarceration. However, I'm also passionate about disability rights. I have always been in roles to help others. I'd be open to considering other options. I have my masters in Forensic Psychology, but no license. I'm interested in remote or in western Mass. #Fedihired #RemoteWork
@[email protected] @boujee_bottle your nieces have awesome names… I like your nephew‘s name, but I kind of feel sorry for him with that name. :-) And yeah… Her name is unusual because her mother was… An interesting soul, to say the least. :-)
@carrottop1023 you aren’t kidding, Mann. They really have. The things we had to worry about as kids were nothing compared to what today’s kids are dealing with.
Exhausted. Looks like they are going to keep kiddo for 5 to 7 days… Just got off the phone with her mom, and one of the counselors… Had to answer a bunch of questions because her poor mother, having a brain injury, was having trouble finding words. Thankfully, between me and Clara, we got it done.
@carrottop1023 Thanks. It’s alarming as I’ve never known a child with these types of suicidal ideations. VERY alarming. Teenagers, I’ve seen…But 9-year-olds? When I was 9, I was worried about playing with my friends, not getting caught with that new Guns N’ Roses tape, and stuff like that.
@[email protected] @boujee_bottle Actually, most know her from her Twitter/X days. That’s the main reason I put it here as most of blind kind from X have migrated here. Her real name is Jessiaca Evans…And yes, that’s…How her mom chose to spell Jessica. LOL. She’s well-known here in the US amongst the blind community.
