People seem to enjoy these, so here's another photo of a winter sunrise near Arrochar, with the Cobbler in the background.
If anyone wants to write me an #NVDA addon for Christmas, second to one that looked up the current word in a local English dictionary for me would be a way of turning my numpad into a calculator.
I've been a laptop keyboard user for years without a numpad but spend a lot of time alt+tabbing back into my tape calculator.
To have access to that just by turning on the Numpad anywhere in Windows would be a great boon.
obviously I'm now using a larger keyboard when at my desk; I am hoping ;a little more space stops my wrist from cramping up so much.
So the Numpad is just sat there not being used for anything.
Might be one to tackle when the holiday rush is over, I can't imagine it'd be a difficult addon to write.
Re looking up the current word, there are a number of Windows apps which will do that (you may need to copy or select or something first. I know it's come up in the user group but I couldn't find recent info. I did find some listed here: quora.com/Is-there-any-diction…
Similarly I found a nice little calculator app at one point (when some people had problems with Windows calculator) but I can't recall what that one was - just suggesting there might be a solution even if not an NVDA add-on.

Merci 🇫🇷, obrigado 🇵🇹!
#EUSolidarity means standing together when it matters most.
After Spain activated the #EUCivilProtection Mechanism in response to devastating floods, Portugal and France swiftly stepped in to help.
🤝 Over 150 team members and 60 vehicles joined forces with Spanish authorities, working tirelessly to clear streets of debris, pump out water and mud, remove vehicles, and transport rubble.
When we work together, we are stronger.
Go ahead and deploy a new version of Cisco Anyconnect VPN with a new icon color and ask yourselves why I phone corporate support to ask if that's legit.
I hope all > 50,000 of your employees do that as well!
Una pregunta que se me ocurre para quien sepa de metodología de encuestas o demografía:
Teniendo en cuenta que sabemos que la opinión política, salvo en el caso de activistas, es mutable y débilmente sostenida (aunque sea extrema) ¿hasta que punto preguntar por un tema en una encuesta le va a dar una saliencia que cambie la posición del encuestado?
Ejemplo práctico: si preguntamos a una población objetivo por los problemas que más les preocupan, y metemos la inmigración en la lista, ¿estamos sólo midiendo, o también induciendo a esa preocupación?
