Once I get my finances back in check (pay off debt) the dyslexic ASUS ROG STRIX x670e-f motherboard (when I say this, the problems* are well documented) will be replaced with one that supercedes it, ASUS ROG STRIX X870E-E.

*Sound, PCI-E and NIC are all routed via USB and suffer random frequent "disconnections". USB ports "disconnect" when anything is plugged into them at random. Graphics shuts off. System reboots during standby.

#ScribesAndMakers 5/4. How many songs are there where you know all the lyrics by heart?

#Dyslexic brain here. So none most of the time. Or all, because dyslexia affects recall so the lyrics are in there somewhere.
I can usually remember the first verses ok. Or the first line. If I hear the opening bars. Or if I'm being earwormed.

Going off book for performances is a huge struggle.

I am #dyslexic, too. 💃

"… Children do not just hear the diagnosis; they hear what the world thinks it means. … They sense when adults … have quietly made up their minds. It is a terrible thing to do to a child – to make them feel written off before they have had the chance to discover their own brilliance.

Now, as a space scientist and engineer, I meet many children in my science communication work $ I try to instil what I call the 'desire to aspire' in every one."

Targeting people who read left->right (ie EN) and are #dyslexic is it better to have a form or row label
* left aligned (for the average person)
* right aligned (so its harder to read the wrong label to the row)
* it depends on screen size
* tunable maybe?

Cisco website was really bad for this in 2010 era, no idea if they fixed it yet.

One of my colleagues mentioned today that her #dyslexic girlfriend uses #ChatGPT to rewrite her emails, as she struggles with both letters and numbers. Before, she was dependent on her parents and friends to proofread any important communication.

Isn't that empowering and a great use of #LLMs?

@UlrikeHahn Uhhmmm... when I got my undergrad degree back in 1986, I just submitted a 70,000 word dissertation (and sat three in person exams for my minor courses, but I don't think they contributed hugely -- I'm not good at exams, which is why I opted for dissertation). These days, that dissertation could be easily faked.

Unless you require hand-written answers in exams, which as a #dyslexic person I couldn't do, I don't see how in-person non-viva exams help much.

I am not a big fan of #Cher but all the pointing and laughing about her #Grammys mistake seems to ignore that she's #Dyslexic, so reading a card which says Luther by Kendrick Lamar is understandably confusing.

Love this! In my research, I discovered Made By Dyslexia's signatures:

I’m #MadeByDyslexia – expect creative thinking & creative spelling.

I’m #MadeByDyslexia – expect big thinking & small typos.

I’m #MadeByDyslexia – expect curious ideas & curious spelling.

All very true about me, as a proud #dyslexic! Now which one do I choose.

Dang, that's brutal. Is that what being #dyslexic is really like?

So, this feels (to me) like an odd realization for a 50 year old Owlbear, but… I think I might be #dyslexic.

Is it… possible that someone who reads (very slowly) as much as I do and who has played role playing games (a fairly wordy hobby) since they were seven, and who even writes poetry and game design stuff as a hobby… could I have missed that for this long?

I am looking for a #copyeditor for my literary fantasy novel-would be great to have someone who is up for working with a #dyslexic writer using a scattering of #Scots. #askfedi any recommendations would be most welcome!

So … to get the normal apps I need to work onto my new Kubuntu (Ubuntu) computer, I need to
▪ find it on a developer's own site. Probably find several.
… randomly choose one?
▪ somehow vet the developer myself? lest his executable harm my computer or hijack my data
▪ type the magical incantation into a terminal window to install it (#dyslexic, aargh)
▪ find another magical incantation to start it up ...

Q: Is this life on Linux?
Or am I just using the wrong version of Linux?

#sigh

@ukapala So I offer a counter viewpoint? I’m #autistic and #dyslexic and I find that (for anything non-trivial) my brain absorbs information much *better* when presented in video (or strictly audio) form; and that it kinds of slides off (like water on a duck) if only read it. So I make extensive use of audiobooks (and text to speech software) and videos when trying to learn anything.

Now that said I will be the first to admit that there are a *lot* of terrible videos on the internet - where people (as you say) take a 30-second video and make it five minutes with pointless fluff. And those are as annoying as heck. But usually I can just skip those and find a better video.

I guess at the end of the day - my point here is everyone processes information differently - and that variety is good.

Also thankyou to all of the people who are still making videos with the objecting of sharing knowledge - and not with the intent to try to “be an influencer”.

They tested the impact of low-frequency flickering in 375 regular adult #readers and 20 #dyslexic children using a lexical decision task. #Flickering slowed down response to words and biased the decision towards #pseudowords in adults while it had no #significant effect in #dyslexics.
