Opinions are my own. Profile picture description: Black on white pictogram with a D20 showing 20 for a head and a game controller for a body and arms, holding a white cane.

It’s awesome that you enjoyed it that much!
The gameplay mechanics and basic concepts are very well established in the audiogame space, so this game was by no means revolutionary within the blind community.
What’s really cool about it is that it’s approachable for sighted players, such as yourself, and the voice acting is pretty good indeed.
I also really like that the main character is a strong disabled female lead. A lot of things just happen to her, but she still *does * a lot.
I think of that like putting multiple things in the same basket, but putting two locks on that basket.
I’m not evaluating whether or not you should do that, but, assuming you trust your partner and their op sec, you could send them the secret via a disappearing message on Signal or some other E2E encrypted communication method.
You set it up on your key, they add it to theirs later, the secret disappears into the ether.
All it takes to sync TOTP is to manually set up the secrets on all keys.
Keeping a second factor in a password manager makes it a single factor, doesn’t it?
I think their normal intake was 4 or 5 coffees. I’d expect to feel **something ** cutting down from that to 0. Maybe the decaf placebo really worked for them, most days?
Maybe? I was surprised to hear James saying he hadn’t had any caffeine on multiple days.
One coffee a day? Those are rookie numbers!
Joking aside, that could mean there’s already significant variance in their intake.
You could maybe work this out from a meta analysis of the studies about caffeine and focusing, where the control group is actually just in withdrawal.
I was surprised by the lack of correlation between caffeine intake and sleep quality, but the takeaway, for me, is that if they were specifically looking into that, they’d need to control for other factors. And n=5 is pretty small.
Interesting stuff.
People deleted the content they had access to. As protesting subreddits went back to being public, the content they hadn’t been able to delete became visible again.
Exactly. I’ve been looking for keyboard meetups in my area, but the closest thing I’ve found is Keychron boards at the office. Hehe.
I got friends to solder most of my keyboards and had one commissioned.
I could maybe still do it myself, but I don’t have the gear these days, and it’s also a really interesting hobby to share.
I’m playing Dishonored these days. It was highly recommended after I said I was loving Prey.
Is it OK if I’m not loving it? Hahaha.
The no kill limitation was really shoe-horned in there, so I think I’ll only really have fun on the second playthrough. Shame.
Prey limits you quite a bit for the good ending, but it’s still complex, broad and fun.
Who’s blind now!? Hehehe.
I personally don’t, because I still play mainstream games and have been lucky with accessibility improvements to a lot of the ones I’m interested in. The Last of Us parts I and II are incredibly accessible, for example.
Then again… I think A Hero’s Call is relatively well regarded, as something that’s also on Steam.
You could check out audiogames.net to get a broader selection, but be mindful that a lot of the discussions get quite unsavory. I don’t frequent it.
