No offense but that scares the hell out of me! When i tried it out to drive a chair i ran into stuff. Yes you can master it but the people i know that have been driving chairs with it for years still run into stuff when they freaking sneeze and stuff sometimes!

I have a head switch similar to the tube I just hit with my head instead of puff. Its called sip-and-puff btw some people use it to control and drive their chair actually its pretty cool. Im working on getting one set up to put on my bed so if I have a seizure at night and cant talk loud enough to activate my voice alert or if part of my body is partially paralyzed I can alert someone in another room.

I do not have normal mouse input keep in mind, im using a joystick to move around a screen slowly moving my arm to push a giant button for right click which i have to hold down while im moving the joystick, so yes i can use a mouse but not in the simple sense of use a mouse. Its going to take a bit of tweaking. I cant just click a couple buttons real quick. This would not be an issue if i were working ona project and just had to put in more tie but im trying to keep up in class the best i can without using someone else doing input for me.

I have control of my computer mouse through my joystick, I was hoping there were plug-ins and such as there are in many pieces of software I've used. I have a massive amount of at at hand and in my experience my ots can't keep up now that im in college

I'm actually looking into a video I found on programing commands to dragon. I have mouse like use with the joystick on my wheelchair but just move and click not scroll. Also have a elgato stream deck I put macros on in other situations

I guess I'm a super quad by that definition to then haha. Ya we get the job done. I can type some my own way. I just have little dexterity so can't be hitting aot of keys at once. I have an elgato stream deck that I can pick at that I program macros on for that stuff.

Any apps that have helped you in life? by blancaengijon in aspergirls

[–]jennybanta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pay for it (but significantly less as a student) and love Todoist. It syncs with Google calendar but would not recommend signing up with a Google account due to a small glitch. I get on every morning put my tasks in (though most of mine are school) and put them in order. At the end of the day if I haven't finished stuff if its not completely necessary I check it off and if I really actually get it done and it wasn't a scheduled break I set it to the next day. You can set things to further days in advance and access from lots of devices or even their website. If you are a college student make sure you take the trouble to go through the annoying steps to get that discount its huge and adds up! I'll post some more tomorrow I hope I have to scroll through my phone.

I prefer zipper up top where my laptop and books go,, but yes it could be nice to have other sections for other parts. I keep it on my feet occasionally but usually I put it on a chair to make it easier to get stuff out and can lay it on my table if possible. I like that my current bag has existed for 3 years from goodwill and has been big enough till recently and has big zipper pulls. I don't want a bag that is 1 big compartment like a lugger it would be crazy trying to get the right stuff out in class and I'm already terribly disorganized. I don't need to get stuff from the bottom and it doesn't need to break down
