#visuallyimpaired — Public Fediverse posts

@FreakyFwoof I have a quick question about #Clipman, specifically syncing. I have #iCloudForWindows installed on both my DellVastro5620 & #BrailleNoteEvolve. On my #iPhone16ProMax, #M2MacbookAir &#M4iPadPro, I have Clipman set to sync with dropbox. Is there an easy way I can move my stuff to iCloud & just use that? Your documentation states that its slower but its actually nearly instantaneous for me. Although, I just realized that I'll need to use #Dropbox if I want to use the app on my #Slint machine, which is a version of #Linux developed specifically for those of us who are #Blind or #VisuallyImpaired & is based on #Slackware. Thanks for any info you can provide & certainly thanks for creating this wonderfull little application!

The Fukuoka Municipal Government has developed a new kind of paving block that benefits both blind or partially sighted pedestrians and wheelchair users. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/12/08/japan/society/road-blocks-visually-impaired-pedestrians-wheelchair-users/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #society #disability #visuallyimpaired #barrierfree #fukuoka

Sooooo... thinking about the possibility and feasibility of big life changes, namely studying opera seriously in Europe. Would love to connect with other #Blind language learners, especially those using #braille as a component of their learning. Currently learning #French. Am particularly interested in chatting with people who have taught themselves grade 2 French Braille as well as those who are either conversational or fluent and/or who have worked in or currently live in a #Francophone European country. If this is you or you're in any way adjacent to this world, please reach out. Would love to talk to you. Would also love to chat with people who use #MusicBraille / #BrailleMusic in Europe.

Hey everyone! I want to let you know that the #LondonDrugs store in Rutherford Mall in #Nanaimo has an amazing #AntiAbleist #inclusive manager. My friend, Tessie, is a #DisabledEmployee there. The manager, Warren, went out of his way to help her feel supported at work. He made her a shirt & a sign for her workstation 👏

If you're on #VancouverIsland in the Nanaimo area, please support this specific store. Please let them know that the public appreciates how they treat their disabled employees & thank Warren for being a stellar, inclusive & thoughtful store #manager 👍

Solar Eclipse Sonification Tool for Visually Impaired

"I want students to be able to hear the eclipse, to hear the stars."

"The LightSound device is the result of a collaboration between Wanda Díaz-Merced, an astronomer who is blind, and Harvard astronomer Allyson Bieryla."

I have managed to get up this morning. I’m still feeling tired though. Anyone else with nystagmus have their eyes wobble even more when they’re poorly?

@weirdwriter I also find this article and it's comments to be quite interesting. I don't understand allot of this so analyzing for author bias is hard for me, but finding any good info on #accessiBe is hard, so I'll take what I can get.
But I agree, this company is a problem, and in general automated access fixers and overlays are a bad idea.

This other article brings the entire concept into question:
