SHOKZ, ACCESSIBILITY
SHOULDN’T BE MY JOB. 💎

Today I got angry at a pair of lightweight Shokz headphones I just paid over $200 for. Not because the headphones are bad. They’re actually rather good. I got angry because I had to charge them. I am 70 years old. I had a major stroke many years ago. I am paralysed on my left side, and I have the use of only one hand.

So something as ordinary as plugging in a charging cable can become a bloody engineering project, and then I have to admit that I just can't do it. The cable falls. The plug turns the wrong way. The socket is designed for two hands, good eyesight, good balance and fingers that work independently of each other. And suddenly, an object that is supposed to make my life easier is asking me to adapt to it. Again. That was what made me angry. This isn't really about Shokz. And it isn't really about a charging cable.

IT IS ABOUT THE THOUSANDS OF TINY BARRIERS PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES ARE EXPECTED TO QUIETLY ABSORB EVERY DAY.

A door handle. A package. A keyboard. A bottle top. A heavy door. A charging cable. A shower. An article of clothing. A knife. None of these objects looks like discrimination. Nobody deliberately designed them to exclude me. But they, along with several thousand other objects, do.

They simply designed them without me or anyone with a disability in the room. And then I am expected to solve the problem. Not only pay for the item, but also come up with the disability fix so that I can use the bloody stupid thing.

For most of my life, I could solve these things. Before my stroke, the physical world largely worked for me. I didn't have to think about how many hands something required. I didn't notice where the socket was. I didn't examine a packet and calculate how I was going to hold it still while opening it.

NOW I NOTICE.

And after decades of noticing, occasionally I get fucking angry. Not because I am incapable. Because I am capable, and I am tired of wasting that capability fighting stupid little barriers that never needed to exist. Accessibility isn't a special favour for a small, unfortunate group of people.

IT IS GOOD DESIGN.

And sometimes the difference between independence and dependence is something as ridiculously small as where somebody decided to put the bloody plug.

@gustav ser bra ut! Oj de heter bara shokz numer (?)

#shokz

Hej Folks!
Ihr seid doch für Fancy Stuff aufgeschlossen.

Hat hier jemand die #SHOKZ OpenMeet oder OpenComm2 mit diesem Mikro-Ärmchen?

#SHOKZOpenMeet #fedihelp

@minkorrekt ich habe die Open Run Mini, da ist der Bügel etwas kürzer und steht daher nicht soweit weg.

#BoneConductionHeadphones #shokz #openrun

@realSiegfried: Für am PC habe ich die (damals After)Shokz Sportz Titanium mit 3.5mm #Klinkenstecker. Gibt's leider nimmer und neigen leider auch zu #Kabelbruch direkt am #Kopfhörer. Und bei meinem ersten kam nach 'ner Woche auf einer Seite kein Ton mehr → #DOA-Garantiefall. Die anderen beiden tun aber bis die schon gebrochene Isolierung super.

Am Händi habe ich die #Shokz #OpenRun Pro 2 via Bluetooth und bin recht glücklich damit. Nur nach langem Tragen drücken sie etwas aufs Brillengestell.

And then for this week’s Park Run… I put the lower cost Shokz OpenDots Air through their (and my) paces. Contains much less fog, slightly more sweat.

I hit up my local Park Run last week to test out the Shokz OpenDots 2. Would they stay in my ears? Were they comfortable? There was only one way to find out. Note: May contain traces of fog and a quantity of hard earned sweat.

#Shokz je bohužel taky jen šikovně maskovanej Číňan.

Já teď jezdím #Mojawa #Haptifit a prostě to mechanicky nezvládají. #Philips co jsem měl předtím zase umřel mikrofon. Stojí to za hovno všechno! 😁
@Zoufalec @365tipu

@ruza @365tipu Používám zhruba rok totéž ve variantě mini. Naprosto bezvadná sluchátka; často zapomenu, že je mám na hlavě, když nic neposlouchám.

Quick video review time, as I go running with the Shokz OpenFit Pro headphones. They’re open ear headphones… with ANC? How well could that possibly work?
