  This unlinked page of other related things found while searching that are not add-ons may be interesting. https://bestmidi.com/addons/rejected.html

  Here is a proof of concept for a page showing NVDA add-ons recently updated or posted to Github. Relies on Github info, NVDA manifests, and buildVars for data. Definitely use anything discovered here at your own risk. Would love your feedback and ideas. Also pulls changelog history for addons which support this in the manifest. I will backfill to older addons as as my API tokens allow. I don't think there is anything exactly like this out there but if there is, happy to look at it instead. h...

  RE: https://vee.seedy.cc/@seedy60/116948064256344768 Heard a report about this as my Lyft driver was driving me to the airport. I got out, but about 8 hours later.

  Really disappointing there does not seem to be a way to get the accessible Wimbleton feed outside the UK. VPN is no dice for me. Amazing accessibility feature that is geogated for just a part of the world. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/l0058j5v/wimbledon-day-14-inclusive-feed

  What are people using for GPS in 2026, iOS or Android? Especially interested in turn by turn directions, knowing what street you are currently on, compass, what's nearby. All things Nearby Explorer used to do on one screen. Looking for both blind and low vision answers.

  More free stuff. About 20-25 3.5 floppy discs. Some with software like the Blazie Engineering updates, others are blank or have just DOS on them. Does anyone want these before I recycle/dispose of them?I have already copied the files from these for preservation.

  Also for free, just ask: a box of Luthern Braille Workers braille materials for free, cassettes from the DX Audio Service magazine, et al.

  RE: https://mas.to/@HNguyenLy/116478105512086857 Yes the AI did not do well here, but the real problem is this company not having backups somewhere else, and also iterating on a production environment. People will twist this into an AI is terrible narrative but it's the people controling it that were the big problem here. I once deleted an entire database table form the zone without any backups 20 years before AI. Lessons learned.

  RE: https://dragonscave.space/@TheQuinbox/116434740766283422 I was just going to ask around for tips on updating from Windows 10 to 11 in the most painless way possible, fresh install on a new machine. I'm not anti-MS accounts but don't want more bloat than necessary. This sounds like a great start, and open to other ideas.

  RE: https://defcon.social/@ai/116438968038440653 Yup seeing more of this as these things get more popular. Not sure there is much of a value prop left for Copilot.

  The 1980 B-side version of Down Under by Men at Work is quite different from the final version you know. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2lhmqKLais

  Anyone out there going to the Github accessibility hackathon in SF in May?

  I've centralized my Dot Pad X apps to a new website, and also ported all of the Python games to web versions. Much more to come I'm sure, and all ideas welcome. https://braille.atguys.com

  The first release of the Dot Game Center, 0.2.3, is here. This is a set of 4 games that can be played using a Dot Pad braille/graphics tablet. Currently: Tic Tac Toe, Connect 4, Battleship, and 15 puzzle with more to come. While all of these games are playable with speech alone, having access to the game board in realtime is what makes them much easier to play. Built for Windows for now. https://github.com/jage9/dot-game-center/releases/tag/v0.2.3

  RE: https://infosec.exchange/@josephcox/116284323457863009 Definitely wild. Also exhibit 83 of why not to post Zoom links publicly. Thought we learned this in 2020.

  SWE-rebench Leaderboard is a newer coding benchmark with a dataset that is continuously updated with modern tasks that LLM's presumably have not seen before. Claude Opus 4.6 ranks number 1 which probably is not surprising, but GPT 5.2 (not 5.4) and GLM 5 being 2nd and 3rd may. https://swe-rebench.com/

  Another surprise Codex weekly reset. Nice!

  Does anyone have the Fred's head archive from APH? That's another great resource now gone that would be great to get back. It was a Blogger site, wonder if it still exists in someone's Blogger account even. Archive.org has a smattering of posts.

  I've always loved the Little Caesar's pizza kits, especially the personal ones which surprisingly have not gone up in price a ton. Here's a fund raiser from the NFB of Michigan to quell your future hunger. https://fundraising.littlecaesars.com/products?support=160f4123-1677-4b76-bf89-dd25cdd8db1c

  Wow I finally used Codex enough to where I have 20 percent usage left and it doesn't reset until Wednesday. Thinking of either buying credits, trying some Gemini CLI or Claude, or looking at other tools. Not ready to spend $100/200 a month yet. There are also some tasks that I could start doing with Codex 5.1 Mini to save credits, and some things I was admittedly lazy on that I could do without AI entirely. Curious what others in the space are using. Not looking for the anti AI answers h...
