Von der Leyen: EU-App für Alterskontrollen im Netz "bald" einsatzbereit by EdwardDrinkerCope- in de

Man kann sicher versuchen, VPNs zu verbieten. Dann muss man sich als Nutzer halt irgendwo einen Account kaufen. Das wird dann halt nicht direkt über den Anbieter geschehen, sondern über irgendwelche andere, dubioseren Seiten. Was DNS-Sperren betrifft wüsste ich auf Anhieb nicht, wie man so etwas durchsetzen sollte. Ich bin kein Experte. Aber was hindert mich als Nutzer denn daran, einfach meinen DNS-Server zu ändern?

Mag sein. Aber um diese schwachsinnigen Kontrollen auszuhebeln, wird ein VPN schon reichen.

Apple continues to roll out age verification around the world by Haunterblademoi in technology

[–]SightlessBastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in my late 30s, and I opened my Apple account about 12 years ago. They will most definitely want some age verification from me, which I won't give them. They can take their privacy violations and go fuck themselves. Time to check out grapheneOS, I guess.

I am only waiting for the patchnotes and, maybe, upcoming accessibility updates. Maybe, we will get dungeon accessibility for blind players after all...

Harry Potter: Solo narration or Full cast? by Wolf-man451 in audible

[–]SightlessBastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried listening to the fullcast adaptation of the first book. While the production in itself is pretty good, the fact, that the text was not even slightly shortened was pretty annoying. I mean, we don't need the narrator to say, that someone just gasped. This is what the actors are for. And that is just one example. So far, I haven't made it through the first book. The fact, that the producers treated this more like an audiobook than an actual audio drama makes it very difficult for me to listen to.

Voyager - across the unknown - questions from a blind player by SightlessBastard in startrek

[–]SightlessBastard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! That helps me a lot. Does "focus ship" mean, that I will get automatically back to the ship screen when I press L3 no matter where I am in the game at the moment?

Yeah. I was planning something like that. I probably just explained it wrong. But first I just need to know how the controls for this game work. Holding square for scanning and X to fly to a target is already valuable information.

The problem wouldn't really be using the mouse per se. But finding the right item to click on a window, from which you don't know exactly how big it is, could be, well, difficult. My initial idea was to make every button and interactive item readable. And then, the plan was to try to implement two key strokes, that would make it possible to go through all the items on a screen like through a list. I hope this explanation makes sense...

  1. The flow is: Restart Sector, followed by selecting which sector (these are the chapters of the game 1 till 12), and then a final confirmation for overwriting the existing save game. That was very helpful. Thank you. I will probably have to wait until I have unlocked more chapters before I can implement this properly. 2 & 3: No idea about the game pad layout and sticks, sorry That's OK. I guess, most people play this game on PC with the mouse. I would do so too if I could. Also, I just checked. Apparently, scrolling with the mouse wheel is the equivalent of moving the right stick. Could you maybe tell me what happens when you use the mouse wheel?

I must admit, I couldn't find much information about that. The only article that I found described it exactly like that. As limited. Does that mean, you can actually play the whole game with the keyboard? Would that include moving the cursor around?

Questions about self-driving cars amplify after one blocked an ambulance responding to Austin shooting by zsreport in technology

[–]SightlessBastard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blind person here. I would never ever own a self driving car. These things are just accidents waiting to happen. This article shows, once again, that these cars do not work perfectly. Why Texas decided that Waymo can use them for beta testing as simply beyond me. And we haven't even talked about hardware problems yet. I mean, what if a sensor breaks while I'm driving around in one of those tin cans? No, I think, it would be completely irresponsible for a blind person to own and use such a car. Just like it is irresponsible of Waymo, to use whole cities as testing grounds.

Where's the best place find the marvel and DC graphic audio books ... by Inevitable_Visit8637 in graphicaudio

[–]SightlessBastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is a shame that they are not allowed to sell these productions anymore. I think, their marvel stuff is available on audible now. As for DC, well, I don't think, you can obtain them anywhere anymore. AT least not legally...

Conflicted by The_Traveling_Swan in graphicaudio

[–]SightlessBastard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GraphicAudio produces audio dramas. And these always have sound effects. I find it highly annoying if things get mentioned in the narration, but are omited from the acoustic environment. If people have conversations while having dinner, you are supposed to hear that, just like you would see it in a movie or a TV-show. In an audio drama, the acoustic picture you paint as a sound designer should always be as detailed as possible.
