In Vox, I noted that smoking a cigarette similar to driving a giant SUV or pickup: Both endanger anyone who happens to be nearby.
The narrative power of secondhand smoke galvanized the anti-tobacco movement of the 1980s. It could do the same with car bloat today.

So this sucks if you have privacy issues: apparently all that rigamarole you went through to get your passport isn't enough, so if you are a Canadian (or American) wanting to visit Europe, you need to share your biometric data with bloody apps to be approved.
Because I guess our governments aren't vigilant enough when granting passports? Or the countries want to collect and store data on people. :(

Minecraft Access: A World of Blocks, Blindness, and Brilliance 🌍💎 #MinecraftAccess #InclusiveGaming
Seven years ago, I lost my sight—and with it, I thought I’d lost the chance to play Minecraft. Back in my sighted days, Minecraft was my escape hatch to infinite creativity. Build a castle? Sure. Survive the night? Done. Accidentally set your house on fire because you put lava in the wrong place? Look, we’ve all been there.
But when I lost my vision, Minecraft felt like a closed door. And while games might not be life’s top priority, let’s admit it—they’re a fantastic way to unwind. Losing that world stung.
That’s where Minecraft Access comes in. It’s a mod that makes the game accessible for blind players. Sounds amazing, right? When I first tried it four months ago, though, things didn’t go as planned. I wandered aimlessly, got hopelessly lost, and rage-quit before a creeper even had the chance to blow me up. But yesterday, armed with more patience (and probably less sanity), I decided to give it another go.
And you know what? This time, I crushed it. Well, not literally—I didn’t fall into lava, for once! I set up an underground base, complete with a wheat farm and an infinite water source. I mined iron, found diamonds (yes, diamonds! I’m rich!), and lit up my surroundings so mobs wouldn’t spawn. Because let’s be honest, nothing says “bad day” like being smacked by a zombie you can’t even see.
So how does this all work? Minecraft Access narrates the block in your crosshair, tells you its position, and makes inventory and crafting fully accessible. I navigate with ASDW keys, craft like a pro, and honestly, I feel like I’ve rediscovered a part of myself I thought was gone.
Of course, it’s not all smooth sailing. Navigating the terrain is like playing a guessing game where the prize is not falling into a ravine. And while I can build functional stuff, making it visually appealing? Let’s just say my creations won’t win any beauty contests. But hey, I can still mine, explore, and survive—and that feels like magic.
The real heroes here are the developers of Minecraft Access. Turning a game this visual into something a blind player can enjoy is a Herculean task. They’ve done something incredible, and they deserve all the praise (and maybe some pizza, because who doesn’t love pizza?).
If you’re curious or want to say thank you to these legends, check out their GitHub page or hop on their Discord. They’ve made Minecraft a world for everyone, and that’s worth celebrating.

Minecraft has always been about endless possibilities. Thanks to this mod, those possibilities now extend to players like me. Who knows? Maybe I’ll even build a castle someday... if I can figure out where the stairs go. 😅

So, the latest news: I started a new position today! Thanks to a certain amazingly wonderful person from Germany who I've never met in person, we were able to eat and pay bills throughout December, which is why you haven't had to see me begging like this. (Thank you sooooo much, sir!) Now we are down to the last $15 of those funds, and I've got to figure out a way to feed my family for the next 2 weeks, and then move to the bay area in California (without them :( ) on the money I get from my first paycheck. Way less than ideal, and yet waaaay better than what we've been facing for the last 11 months. This is the home stretch!
Please help us out with food money if you can. Boosts help, too! Many thanks to all of you.

We're rolling out Matrix's next-generation authentication stack, in line with our Matrix 2.0 goals, allowing for more flexible auth journeys without requiring client devs to support all of them. Relatedly, due to resource constraints, guest account access on Matrix.org will be disabled on January 16th.

Just to confirm: Matrix.org is also going to deploy the legacy endpoint helpers right? (as in passing them to mas). Otherwise, this would break _all_ bots and _all_ moderation tooling as mas does _not_ support non-interactive authentication in any way currently, sadly.
If it does not deploy those, I fear there will be no other choice than banning matrix.org network wide as it would be unmoderated :(
On that note: Draupnir works with the legacy mas login endpoint.

Does Canada have some version of the accessibility discrimination act, and the US ADA?
Remember that video I made about Floatplane accessibility back in April 2024? No? Nor do I.
Well I fired off a support email at the time, never heard back. Sent a reminder in May, threaded, never heard back. Forgot about it for months, fired off another one sometime in December.
I don't believe that, as a paying customer, it's OK to have emails go ignored, it's ill-mannered. Maybe that's just me. Maybe I kind of expect a company to respond to emails about support requests, you know?
