Learned To DownLoad Books on NLS EReaderlearning! Love to learn!
We never stop learning! I learned finally! How to download books from the Bard site onto my EReader to read in Braille. I figured it out yesterday and have been super excited!! And proud of myself for figuring it out, all on my own. IF you have a Bard account then all you need is the EReader itself, on wifi, to download books onto the reader from Bard. Really enjoying my Humanware NLS EReader Braille display. It's super amazing!

In this video, I explain how Kindle for Mac accessibility has been fixed. VoiceOver on Mac wasn't interacting with the app at all for a long time. I could not read the text in books or open books. But they went in and fixed what needed fixing!! I am now able to open any book in my Kindle library on Mac with VoiceOver and read using my screen reader or bluetooth connected refreshable Braille dis...

    I've been watching kindle accessibility since I got my first mac in jully 2023. As far as I know the kindle classic wasn't very good with vo before amazon stopped in in october. Currently with the latest version of kindle on macos 14.4 its accessibility is as bad as on ventura when I first downloaded it. First time seeing your channel, cool to see our community is being modernized! Also sorry but can you have at least get earphones or something so voiceover doesn't interrupt you speaking with your face position info? Anyways, see ya! Just subscribed to your channel.

    If the dumpster are across the street, which I assume they are, when do you cross the street… When the cars are straight in front of you, or by your side? I know the answer to this, but I’d like you to tell me what you think, so that I can further assess your OM skills based on what I know… Which, again, might not be wholly accurate. Take practice, and lots of it. It’s several hundred hours of doing things like that good at professional and good, that is. 6:53

    ? They usually tell you to “square off, “which means putting your back against a door or other object, and walking the street forward from that point. I am not an OM instructor myself, and never wish to be as I think decided instructor. Can “lead the Blind, “ a lot better than we can lead ourselves. So, if you go out your door, and put your back against it. When you walk forward from that door, what do you find? Try not to hear in either direction, right or left, and you will have “squared off. “ of course, you do know your cardinal directions, correct? You have a braille or audio compass? It’s recommended not to count steps. I’ve heard that from my instructors, and it takes away from other mind tasks that you could be doing, like echo locating clothes, and other things. if you use a cane, remember to sweep it across your body in an ark, with constant contact on the ground. Is your right foot step forward, the cane should sweep left, and vice versa. Of course, you know about trailing and shoreline, correct? You might if you were taught by an OMS, orientation and mobility specialist… Or CMS, which just certifies the orientation and mobility specialist. Again, I am neither, but I’ve read some things in the past and done a few courses. Of course, I did them as a student. If this is wrong, please contact a professional OMS or CMS for more incorrect information. 6:34

    It's really hurtful to have a church / church community not see you as an individual or listen to you. If you are still looking to find an accepting community, I know there are a lot out there! But unfortunately there are still a fair amount of Christians who are literally not practicing what they preach. Saw this quote recently about how we treat those we perceive as powerless: The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

    I worked with a blind mainframe programmer 22 years ago. He said he used JAWS to read out what was on the screen. He had been a music teacher previously, and one time he brought his violin to work and played a classical song or two. Someone requested "orange blossom special", and he started out playing normally and then to show off he put the violin behind his back and played it perfectly behind him. We were all pretty amazed. Unfortunately, we all experienced one of the first waves of offshoring after that, and I think he returned to teaching music. One of the most optimistic people I have ever met.
