@mos_8502 Out of curiosity, are there any dev resources, documentation, etc.
hosted anywhere for it at present? o:

Anyone who is blind, or who has worked with the blind, knows how expensive our technology can be. This couldn't be more true with relation to braille displays. Even the cheapest costs at least $799, and it's already behind the newest in that line, at $899. This is the Orbit Reader 20 and 20+. Now, a student in India wants to change that by creating a display that is truly affordable (under $50)! Please pass this on, so that we can give him greater recognition within the blind community. Even if it costs a bit more than he initially suspected it would, there is no excuse for the $2,000 to $5,000 average price of such technology when cheaper alternatives can be designed! He is determined to bring this to market, so let's help him do it and show our appreciation for his hard work on this life-changing project!

disassembly is second nature to us reversers, so it's easy to forget that the average person probably only knows the basics of the win32 api and one or two instruction sets

...and x86 calling conventions, of course

Ok, I have an odd quasi mutual aid request:

Are there folks who would like to send me their old corded (not bluetooth) headphones and/or earbuds? Like just mail me kit you don't use.

I don't have any backups any more and my fav headphones need repairs, so want to stock up on other options.

I am in Ontario Canada, fyi for shipping feasibility.

Tagging #actuallyAutistic because ya'll know how important headphones are. 💛

@mos_8502 did someone seriously try to correct the spelling on a screenshot of a thread from another site

@RadicalGraffiti fuck the SPD in particular. When I shout ACAB, there's no room for question with them
