Thank you. I am so, so proud. He has turned out a beautiful man. One of my best friends is in a wheelchair and hung out with us a lot when he was growing up so he saw the things he struggled with and really embraced accessibility in college (he did product design).

Here’s a funny text conversation we had earlier.

My son has been working on this for his company’s websites for the last while. He had worked on a lot of design for accessibility while in college so was happy to take on responsibility for it.

A lot of it is e.g. proper keyboard navigation and making sure it’s set up well for screen readers, colourblind folks etc.

That was a cool watch. Thanks.

Yeah big time. I just added this to my watchlist and it looks great.

Yeah that’s Phillips specific as far as I know. Never seen it IRL but the reviews for it are good in that it expands your perception of the screen size but I totally hear you. The immersion is the thing for me too and I’m not sure how it would affect it.

We got given one of those led strips that stick to the edges all the way around the back of the TV. We have it on red and it’s a great mood light in an otherwise pitch black room. I wasn’t convinced I would like it but everyone in the house does.

If you’re referring to the backlight on an LED TV, the one we got has “zones” so the bleed isn’t too bad at all.

This post caused me to look for the first time in ages and the QLED ones look interesting.

A nice OLED TV. I love watching movies.

Edit: Holy cow OLED is still very expensive. I’ve changed my mind: projector.

I’d say we’d need to make a bunch of biofuels to fill the immediate shortfall to keep tractors moving but as you say we’ve plenty of really good quality land, water, wind. Lots of chemical and medical processing capability once we have the raw ingredients for medicines etc.

Main medium term issue would be mineral and metal mining and processing as we’re short on that but yeah overall think we’d be basically fine.

Nailed it!

I like your guess but I feel like it’s mow.

Someone French please help!

I know a guy that had one in his house as a child. True story!

This is the picture I’ve been scrolling for. Thank you.

We use “no bueno” quite a bit in our house. Not sure how it crept in but I like it.

Our taste in movies would be a perfect match. Grab some popcorn and a bucket of wine and let’s get this marathon started, baby. Plus, I haven’t seen any of the movies I haven’t seen. Ideal.

That’s lovely :)

Wow. That’s a good one.

Oh I hope I don’t judge you or anyone else that I come across based on how they look and I am absolutely certain there are many that are like me.

Mr or Mrs monster. Love yourself. I deep down mean it.

Fuck yo’ genes.

That was the last time I think anyone has ever stood up for me.

Sorry to hear that. Do you mind me asking if you’re in a big city?

Very nice of the lady though!

That’s fuckin’ awesome.

Oh shit! You just reminded me…On the same journey as my story below my wife left her phone in Singapore airport. It was before passcodes or anything so just a Nokia with a simple unlock which at the time was menu and *. Anyway, they looked up “mum”, phoned her mother and we picked it up on the return leg!

People are good.
