There’s no copyright date on this one. If it’s the normal 80’s/early 90’s I wonder how many readers would have known what a futon was

If you use youtube on a mobile app rather than a browser, it doesn’t have an address bar

You joke, but one time I got woken up by what sounded like a Chinese lady complaining about batteries, and it turned out to be the low power alert on the cheapo import soundbar.

directus→derecho from “straight” to “right”

So that’s why “straight on” and “on the right” are the maddeningly confusable “a derecha” and “en derecho”. Such a pain when following directions.

I’m using an LG K9 right now. Works ok, but I’d prefer a smaller screen

I think they’re regional. I don’t remember seeing one either, but I don’t know if that’s because I haven’t encountered it, or because I didn’t notice.

It’s a mobile client for Lemmy

I would say “it’s on backorder”. You could verb it as “it’s been backordered”, but that feels a bit clunky somehow.

If you put a ! In front of the link, like this;

It should show inline

Placebo buttons.

Some appliances like elevators or traffic crossings cycle automatically, but they still have (non-functional) buttons. If the buttons are removed, people complain that the wait is too long. Let them push a button while they wait, and they’ll think it’s much quicker.

I meant accessibility in the sense of, how difficult/messy/undignified is it to eat. But yes that too. I thought coconuts were brittle, and grapefruit were inedibly sour until I tried some in their country of origin.

Mangos are S tier on taste, but D at best on accessibility. Fruits that I rate highly for both taste and convenience are clementines, seedless green grapes, and those flying-saucer shaped peaches.

Aha! But you won’t be affected until time restarts. And since time has stopped for presumably the whole universe, nothing can happen to restart it.

You have the power to stop time.
🐵🐾 It stops for you, too.

I just sent you a message, then deleted it. Check if you can see it in your mailbox.

The context for those 2 sentences was changing colour to match your environment.

That is such bullshit, even aside the ableism angle. Whatever impairments you might have, you already had them when you passed the first time. How are they gonna test you differently? Write all the roadsigns as vague hints? Upholster the car with uncomfortable fabrics?

It also had by far the most responses total. Whether that’s because it’s the most relatable, because it was first, or because it’s the one most directly rooted in the physical world, I don’t know.

Here’s the test I was thinking of https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc0eFJV5wJzJAw2R9ii2ts_cfTZ8mGKcsdWnehz-XATOSFs3w/viewform

And turns out it’s 50 questions, so I don’t think it would be ideal for the question-a-day format. If you’re interested in a similar sort of ‘let’s try to answer these questions together’ exercise, youtuber I’m Autistic Now What does that in this video

Yeah, I think doing the longer, standardized tests would mostly just be going over the same points again in slightly different wording. And the drop in responses over time suggests that one question per day might be a bit too much.

There’s a couple of tests that cover slightly different ground. There’s one about masking that I think is not too long. Also one about monotropic attention, and I think one about demand avoidance. I’m going to think about it and leave some breathing room before jumping in with another.
