We must stop leaving disabled people behind.

When disaster strikes - we’re often the first to be abandoned.

"fun" game to play while job hunting:
if a company says they're a startup revolutionizing $FOOBAR, guess which buzzword they're using to "revolutionize" it, then expand the job listing and see if you're correct

A couple years ago it was blockchain, today it's AI or Machine Learning.



Woohoo! My old (ancient?) Mac disks made it to a new home! 400k and 800k disks from when I was in middle and high school, LOL.

Yep, @likesoldmacs has them running! You can also take images of old disks/software and run them on other kinds of machines. I'm hoping some of those have stuff that hasn't been imaged before, I used to run a computer user group (starting with the Mac 128) when I was in middle school, LOL.
