Ah yigh, I'm now noticing the aftereffect of having tea spilled over my keyboard the other day. My ESC and ` buttons are very... I'd use the Dutch word 'stroperig' for it. :P As if there's a layer of syrup sticking stuff together below those buttons which makes those buttons very hard to press and slow to react.

I guess I'll have to grab my other keyboard soon. And then screw open this affected keyboard to cleanse it, heh.

Just finished watching Glass Onion. That was actually a pretty entertaining whodunnit movie. I can't really say any details about this one because everything is at risk of being a damn spoiler, lol. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The Steam Winter Sale should start this evening. Mmm, hoping for some nice discounts there.

Continued playing Gamedec, I sorta 'solved' the 3rd case now... I have absolutely no idea where this'll lead to! The storyline's getting increasingly trippy and the 3rd case ended with a huge cliffhanger.

Arguably, an image unseen is *also* not funny. As is artwork unseen.

The alt text isn't meant to replace the originals - it augments them so that people who can't participate in the original experience aren't entirely excluded.

A deaf person can watch and enjoy a movie using subtitles, even if the experience isn't quite as good.

If you see a group speaking a foreign language and they all laugh uproariously, having someone tell you "that guy made a very funny joke about a political leader you've never heard of" is a lot better than sitting there wondering what is going on.

And if you're experiencing mastodon via braille, a post saying "Elon after he has a poll that goes the wrong way" then nothing isn't as good as getting "popular meme showing pikachu with a surprised face" so at least you know what the joke was about.

It's about inclusivity. It's not meant to be perfect.

Sure, a bagless vacuum is very nice... except that it's absolutely dusty when you try to empty them, and of course the wind is BLOWING IT ALL IN YOUR FACE!

*Cough cough*

Hoger opgeleiden hechten meer aan eenvoudige teksten! Dat blijkt uit onderzoek.

"Natuurlijk leverde een eenvoudiger taalgebruik mee begrip op. Maar opvallend was dat het voor hoger opgeleiden net zo goed gold als voor lager opgeleiden. Nog opvallender was echter dat die hoger opgeleiden de eenvoud ook meer waardeerden in de tekst en dat zij bovendien de schrijver van de eenvoudigere tekst vriendelijker vonden, terwijl het voor de lager opgeleiden minder uitmaakte."

Oh jeez, this Xmas play is going to be chaotic. I'll just keep doing my best filming all that...
Also wearing a mask atm because I have a damned cold. I've put in menthol drops in my mask so I can actually breathe very well while wearing it. 😋

Uncle From Another World is pretty crazy. Almost as insane as The Way of the Househusband.

Watching back the videos I've made so far of the rehearsal. I'm of the opinion that they should've switched the kids for Bill Sykes and Oliver Twist. Bill is only half the size of Oliver and is way too cute looking. 😅

Also, I need to figure out a way to lessen the vibrations on the camera.

Whew, first rehearsal done. Kinda a mess at the moment, lol. The kids didn't always grok everything in this play of Oliver Twist, it's improving though. Tomorrow more rehearsals. At least I'm starting to see how to use the camera and where to point it at.

Show thread

Legs getting tired. Busy filming rehearsal to get the dynamics of the play down.

Just got this free wifi mesh network kit in from my ISP and I've just set it up. If things are right I should have fairly reliable wifi upstairs now.

If you like LEGO games, then this bundle over at Humble is a pretty good deal!
humblebundle.com/games/lego-at

For 10 euro you can get 9 LEGO games. Usually I see deals of 2 LEGO games for 10 euro, so this bundle is pretty sweet.

My favorite is probably Jurassic World, fun map and gameplay. And you get to play with dinosaurs!
Next up might be LEGO Movie, just so absurd that it's endearing. Though I disliked LEGO Movie 2, that was just absurd without the endearing part. :P
