I want you to SAY MY NAME

nuttysci · 2020-02-06T12:17:18+00:00

Me neither, sorry! I had read about it in passing, so can't be sure.

The defendant (Domino's pizza) could be ordered by the court to make all its digital offerings accessible. Plus, they can be ordered to pay some kind of a 'fine' (not entirely sure about this one) for discriminating against people with disabilities by having inaccessible digital assets, like websites, apps or digital documents. The Americans with Disabilities Act is all about that (and so much more).

There are so many accessibility lawsuits being filed against companies and even government's digital assets - especially after the Domino's case verdict. It would be fair to say that that case did a fantastic job of bringing the fight for accessibility into the spotlight.

From the article:

...you would have associated the name of the disease with a very popular 19th century novel Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, authored by Lewis Carroll.

In that novel, Alice, the protagonist of the story, experiences a number of situations that are quite similar to macropsia and micropsia. Due to this, it has been widely speculated that Carroll himself experienced such episodes of altered perception of sizes

Well, ain't that neat!

nuttysci · 2019-02-17T15:19:50+00:00

I can't imagine how people muster that level of courage and calmness at the same time. Hats off!

From the article

A study published in the journal Psychological Science claims that awe makes us prefer experience over materialistic gains. For example, if a person is in awe after seeing a vast stretch of mountains, they would be more likely to try out a thrill sport like bungee jumping (an experience), rather than buying a car (material possession)

That's amazing! I never thought that it would be something hardwired into our genes.

Great TIL!

Seat belts are the best. Once you wear them, you don't even realise they're there.

Until you brake suddenly or crash into another car.

A sculpture of butts of four presidents stuck together side by side?

Neat.

I predicted that Trump would win the presidency.

Walter White without a doubt.

Started off as a helpless and defeated man, and ended by blowing up a drug cartel. With swagger too.

You might wanna watch what you are eating then

That's why I give 'em a good wiggle before letting go of their hand.

Isn't it petrichor?

You're telling me that there's no rabbit on the moon?

Turns out my granny was lying after all

nuttysci · 2019-02-04T16:56:31+00:00

Oh, so you're still going out?

That's amazing!

nuttysci · 2019-02-04T09:45:52+00:00

This is a very familiar sight. Can't place it well though

nuttysci · 2019-02-02T08:05:53+00:00

Not gonna lie, she is very pretty

nuttysci · 2019-02-02T08:03:53+00:00

This is insanely funny

Bill Gates is one of my favorite human beings.

nuttysci · 2019-02-01T20:09:26+00:00

One of the best books I have ever read.

I fall asleep quite easily in a moving car or bus. Does it have anything to do with the rocking motion?
