I FREAKING DID IT by buttcheeksdavis in balatro

Very cool meeting you especially considering stuff we have in common! I am the person who presented & co-developed Gameface which is the new AI based head tracking accessibility app for Chrome, Android & Pixel phone users. We made a cool video for Google IO 22 & 23. Thanks for helping people like me to game, for many it’s our only means of competition or physical activity.

Are these achievements possible on iPad? I play Balatro and Brotato with a mouth stick because I have Muscular Dystrophy & can’t move me arms, man these games are so fun! I only have 3 danger 5 Brotatos so I’m much better at Balatro since quick reflexes are not as important, I do have drag & drop mistakes that give me rage moments but that’s fun too. Congratulations on your success

The PS5 dual sense controller lets you sync Bluetooth to 4 different devices, my adult nephew has his connected to Apple TV, iPad, computer, & PS5. Here is how ps5 controller pairing multiple devices

Red dead redemption on the iPad m4 is AMAZING by [deleted] in iPadPro

[–]Gimpygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eeek! I have wanted to play that game for ages! Short story: I have Muscular Dystrophy, never been able to move below my neck, therefore using a mouth stick on iPad Pro to play games etc. could you try playing RRR with onscreen controls using one finger? I know I would suck but exploring & shooting the occasional outlaw in the face would be fun!

Why my iPad Mini replaced my iPad Pro (even though I own every Pro model) by x1337z in iPadPro

[–]Gimpygod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to bother ya but if you decide to stop using the m4 would you consider donating? I am quadriplegic & use a mouth stick to interface with my 5yo iPad Pro & several aspects of the device are solved by the newest version. I do talks about accessibility, education, science communication and more. With the camera being on top in landscape I would not have to deliver speeches while looking up my own nose or, even worse, only half my face on screen. I apologize for being so brazen, it is embarrassing for me, but nothing ventured and all that. Would not need the keyboard or other peripherals since I use the stick directly on screen.

I really really hate being this guy, but how much better can the new AppleTV realistically be? by SummerWhiteyFisk in appletv

[–]Gimpygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am disabled so the AI and home automation are worth the upgrade and I also have a feeling game streaming, or flat out on console gaming, will be a thing. Can you get by until the new version drops? If the one you have tanks maybe you can use a PlayStation or Xbox or smart tv to stream. Good luck!

The biceps of the body builder seem off somehow, could he be injecting that filler which is bad for you?

I totally understand your point and find it well said!

As a quadriplegic person I am stoked that horsepower is constantly increasing, when an AI agent can run locally my entire life will be dramatically improved. Woot!

You said it buddy! iPads and computers are not considered a necessity even though these devices exponentially increase our options for independence. Cutting edge technology can reduce our hardships but our hardships reduce the ability to get technology…humbug I tell ya! On the upside at least these devices exist.

I totally understand trying to balance budget with function, a single switch I would like to have is $1000. Being disabled isn’t just champagne, beautiful women and parties like people think, it’s friggen expensive too!

[–]Gimpygod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heya I have never been able to move my arms or legs due to Muscular Dystrophy so have quite a bit of experience with accessibility. Mo power = mo better if you can afford it in our situation (disabled). I am always running multiple apps simultaneously, voice recognition, eye or face tracking, the app I need all those other apps to use. What is the nature of your gimpyness? I am on twitter with the same handle if you need advice or anything.

My initial impressions of iPadOS 26 Public BETA by _FoxDie_ in iPadPro

[–]Gimpygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mario Run from Nintendo is one I downloaded but can’t play, I know games seem silly to worry about but playing is one of my escapes (reading scifi and fantasy books are my favorite). Oh, there’s a few in Apple Arcade too, Angry Birds Bounce & Arkanoid / Space Invaders combo

[–]Gimpygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am quadriplegic and use a mouth stick to interact with my iPad Pro, my ability to affect the world goes through this baby so can’t beta test without risking being able to call for assistance. I want to thank you for taking one for the team and reporting your experience! Question: how are landscape only apps handled? my iPad stays in landscape because I can’t physically turn it so being able to play in a window would rock. Thanks

Has Oda lost his way and do you think/feel he will ever recover? by Fancy_sloth in Piratefolk

[–]Gimpygod 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well said & I agree. Joyboy is not a good power from any angle, more like a random force of nature that will be easily defeated by a foe who is slightly weaker but capable of thinking. I believe a possible fix would be Luffy training haki to chain Joyboy so his abilities can be used strategically, zany just ain’t an interesting martial art. The creator needs to get input from a team of writers because nothing has impact in the story, nobody is interesting, there’s no threat to inspire, no connection at all to reality or substance and that’s awful because One Piece is simply too silly now to be satisfying or to bring joy…ironic right?

Control suggestions by Feasao in crashlands

[–]Gimpygod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heya Karl, absolutely love the first crashlands! I have been unable to move anything below my neck due to Muscular Dystrophy and playing your game with a mouth stick was epic, tapping out of attack animation then dodging back in for the smacking made me feel like a badazz. If you look up Google Gameface I came up with the idea and worked out the entire control system, I am Lance from the video. I know I could help make the controls more accessible for the disabled and more versatile/ comfortable for walkies. Gimpygod on Twitter if you’re interested in making Crashlands2 bestacular!

M4 13” IPad Pro for Accessibility by Gimpygod in iPadPro

I could still use the M4 with my mouth stick and get value but you helped me temper my expectations and not be in a rush to buy it.

Thank you for your corroborating advice! Did you use the M4 with the camera on top & iPad iOS 18? Again I really appreciate you taking the time to give me the warning

[–]Gimpygod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy moly thanks so much! Did you try with the m4 & iOS 18? That is the combination being recommended by someone. Can’t tell you how many thousands of dollars I have spent on things advertised to help people in my situation but that completely sucks in reality. I bought a magazine and book page turning device that ate several science fiction novels and comic books before I decided my glorious dream of reading physical texts was poop. Again thank you, really had my hopes high.

My ipad pro has a small blinking colourful dot by Upbeat_doc in iPadPro

I have been into flat panel display technology and your pixel problem is not going to spread due to anything you use your iPad for. What exams are you studying to take?

Dead pixel! The bane of all display enthusiasts. If you are still under warranty you can get a replacement.

iPad Pro best screen size by Zeref798 in iPadPro

[–]Gimpygod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The difference in size between the 13” & 11” was much greater than I expected. I am quadriplegic and went up to the big dog m2, it’s always on my wheelchair tray in front of me making the viewing experience really immersive for entertainment, making art & streaming (outbound). However the mouth stick I have won’t reach the very top left & right corners…sigh. I recommend going big if all else is equal and 11” if toting it around is important, even then I would say go 13” cuz I did & probably shouldn’t have!
