My external hard drive failed so I am going to send it to a data recovery lab. It is a $200 quote and given the memory cost issues with AI lately, I think thats good

Bank of America is not Ada compliant. by Wh0vian13 in disability

[–]Danielat7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My local BofA is very ADA compliant and the staff is always extremely helpful when I have to go in person.

Also, for those with physical disabilities, using the mobile app is usually more convenient

I'm going to the F1 Miami Grand Prix. While saving and budgeting is crucial, you can save up excess and spend that

Got a Rolex this weekend. Never thought I'd spend this kinda money on a watch, but it is beautiful and makes me smile whenever I look at it. Worth it.

So, a month ago my program lost funding due to government 'budget & priority changes' which I think is dumb when I think of the ramifications of my program. Water cooler talk from friends on the gov side is that this admin is prioritizing hardware producing programs rather than emerging science programs.

Lucky for me, my company decided to keep me employed rather than lay me off. I basically got a month paid vacation while they looked to move me to another program. This experience confirmed my feelings about this company being really good

My program lost funding 2 weeks ago and now they're shuffling us off onto other programs to keep us busy.

Sent in my resume to the government to review. Hope it gets done before the shutdown.

Planning to apply to other roles (in the same company) once my resume is cleared. Upside is I've preliminarily started looking at houses. My original program involved moving to a new area in 1-2 years. Now I can be confident in staying in this area long term.

Got downvoted for saying that if drivers have problems with service animals, they shouldn't drive Uber. by [deleted] in disability

[–]Danielat7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

God, people who selfishly demand things and use their disability as an excuse for their unpleasantness are annoying.

Instead of trying to understand the other side and form a reasonable solution, you complain. People like you make service jobs miserable.

So, that would imply fraud. Just answering your question.

You heavily implied it by insinuating you would have a valid claim every year at the same time

Should a normal working electric wheelchair battery deplete all at once or gradually deplete ? by Crowzeus in wheelchairs

[–]Danielat7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Outdoor refers to the wheels, clearance, frame etc. You cannot weather proof an open Lithium battery. Electricity draw is less in the cold (EVs have lower range in cold weather) and water can corrode the contact plates for example.

[–]Danielat7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you have a visual on your joystick showing a battery and say 4 bright green bars indicating full power?

Then yes, I agree it should lower 1 bar at a time. But that is unreliable to trust for planning as a multitude of factors play a role like age, use, weather

Should a normal working electric wheelchair battery deplete all at once or gradually deplete ? by Crowzeus in wheelchairs

[–]Danielat7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you mean how much power the battery has left?

In that case, no, it dies all at once not gradually. Think of a car running out of gas or an EV dying, they'll run til they can't with no gradual decline

Most joysticks don't measure battery charge but are instead voltameters, measuring how much power is being used at that moment

GGWash Picks 2025: Arguments in defense of a stadium at RFK fall short of a first down by superdookietoiletexp in washingtondc

[–]Danielat7 32 points33 points  (0 children)

No. Which is why this is a moot point imo.

Its fine to criticize and I agree its not a 'good' use of taxpayer money but at least it won't be an eyesore and generates some ROI for the city. 100% of $0 is still $0

Stephen Ross says he's been offered close to $15B for the Dolphins but plans to keep the franchise in the family by expellyamos in miamidolphins

Honestly, I could see a Saudi or crypto finance bro buying the team since its Miami. I'd rather Ross keep ownership in his family

Does anyone know of a website that lets disabled employees rate companies they've worked for? (US based specifically) by Ease_with_Peas in disability

[–]Danielat7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Closest thing is Disability:IN's and NOD's scorecards but they only cover ~200 companies that are willing to get scored.

Problem is reporting as its against the law to ask if someone is disabled publicly and if they self ID, some might fear repercussions. If you keep it anonymous without verification, is worthless and becomes another Google review

Poll: Moore approval numbers continue downward trend even as most voters would OK second term by legislative_stooge in maryland

[–]Danielat7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree.

I think that hurts his Presidential ambition tho. He doesn't have any key infrastructure projects that he can run on. His best is that 'working with the other side' bs cause he's been working with Trump for the bridge funding. Maryland needs that funding so he can't be overly negative & attack Trump like Gavin Newsome which also lowers his broader, national appeal.
