Looks like starting January 2027 Humanware prices are going up as per this post and emails sent out, of which I got three of them. https://www.humanware.com/en-usa/news/company-news/2027-product-pricing-update/

And did just check and this is on Kobo as well. I'd hope it is also fully accessible here too, but I can't say, though i do notice one interesting accessibility note about image descriptions. Here is the link on Kobo. https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-official-stardew-valley-crochet-book?srsltid=AfmBOor9VtsWcCHAl7g1iy8x7aprk8avMKW6K4jzKN9hjRcepVwEA964

So, please boost this for reach but I need some good banking apps that do good check scanning for blind/low vision users that use Voiceover or Talkback primarily. I'm looking for good verbal prompts for alignment, or front/back notifications or even if it tells you if it is upside down or not. This should apply to phone based apps only and only ones that do this well. Please give me the name and accessibility features of the check scanning bits please. This is work adjacent for me. Thanks!

Update: This has been resolved. Okay passing this along, anyone who has @stirlock on Discord, ignore all messages from that account until now on Discord. He's been hacked with someone who will ask you to test a video game beta for ten or fifteen minutes and provide what looks like a Youtube link. Don't interact or anything with this link. Passing this on to get the word out that this is going around on Discord and he may not be the only account hacked doing this.

This roguelike creature catching game for PC will have accessibility features and already does in the alpha. It has options for screen reader access via NVDA and a couple of others and some other accessibility settings. Check it out and back it. Sixteen days to go and they are only partway to the goal.

Carrots are done, now waiting forthe water bath to cool to temp so the chops can cook. They cook at a much lower temp than the carrots do, just under 130 degrees, which makes me nervy but they finish in the skillet searing them, so yeah. Should be amazing either way. The carrots smell great and I'll finish them when I finish the chops as they need to be put in a skillet to create the glaze.

The great sous vide adventure begins, first carrots which are now cooking away for one hour, then the pork chops do the asme for an hour at a lower temp. The chops just need to be put in, I already prepped them in their bag, so the part will jut be to wait for he temp to get up before I pop them in.

Oh and just to note, this is part of the self-identification section, so prefer not to say is also a response on the list. It was within the veteran, race and disability question section.

Tuesday I was filling out a job application and rather than the standard male and female options for gender it had a whole slew of options including questioning, agender, non-binary, transgender, trans man/man trans woman/woman, Questioning, male, female as usual, Not listed and a few others. It made my heart happy to see the variety and diversity listed and wish I had made a list at the time.

I am drinking what our local coffee place calls a Butter Beer off their new dirty soda menu. It is root beer with butterscotch and heavy cream. It is super tasty. I want to try some of their other ones like the love potion which is Pepsi with raspberry and heavy cream. They also have Salt and Pepper which is Dr. Pepper with salted caramel and butter pecan flavoring. The cherry bomb is also really good, Mountan Dew with cherry, pineapple and coconut flavor.

Huh, how do I actually check a checkbox in Google Docs... I have a lovely character sheet with some checkboxes in it but no idea how to actually check them.

I love dreaming, but not when it has me doing stuff like interviewing in my sleep or making me want something that does not likely exist, much less something I can't play with anyway.

Welcome to another night of odd dreams in which I dreamed my supervisor was a teenager, I found areally cool modern Digimon handheld that I wanted and in which I had more job hunting dreams, ugh.

Okay, so Great Value peanut butter cups are good, the peanut butter is smoother than Reese's but still abit gritty with itty bitty little peanut fiber bits? STill, really good taste, not too sweet on first impression.

Up from a nap, but man I feel just a s tired as when I went down. Still, I am sure I'll feel a bit more lively once I start putting this grocery order together.

Also, happy August, it is my birthday month and honestly I can't believe how fast stuff is going by.
