Giant Hawk Moth caterpillar.
My uncle found one in his garden a week ago somewhere in rural Buckinghamshire
@hypnogoria Mornin' :)
@stavvers I am a savage. Cheese on toast is my go-to, but I create such horrific mess each time I make it that I rarely do :/
cheese toastie vans ftw when out and about, though.
@techsinger haha fair enough. offer of help stands, with fair warning of a bit of a brummie accent...
side query - have you tested that you can pass through whatever the required connectivity is from the VM to the hearing aids?
@techsinger Phonak Target looks like a hearing-aid adjustment thing. How the heck did they manage to make *that* into an accessibility problem? :'(
Makes more sense on the graphs and pointers bit now.
This is a weird request, but I figure the worst I can get for it is silence. I'm totally #blind and have very bad hearing. To set up a device through its inaccessible software, I'm in need of a sighted person for about an hour and a half to two hours who can access a computer remotely, speaks and reads English, and can describe images and graphs. The person needs to be quite patient with follow-up questions, needs to be willing to repeat if needed, as well as be able to click on items and describe what happens on the screen. The person needs to be fairly detail oriented because some of the images appear to have arrows and other ways to expand them, according to the manual. Though I'm happy to be reasonable, I have no clue how much to offer as payment, this is my first request of this kind. I'm posting it because I know we have some blind people here who may be able to point me towards someone who has done this before and may be willing to do it for such a short period. Boosts welcome, indeed, they're appreciated. #hearingimpaired #software #A11Y #accessibility #remote
@techsinger not done this before for sight-impaired users, but can give it a go. timezone - UK.
@stavvers and no piss on my server as it's me that would have to mop it up and hope it didn't get into the UPS too :/
