Re: When I thought the blind community can't surprise me anymore
Hi there,
@1: rofl, I would be also interested, what does this guy want to do with an erased braille paper.
I personally don't see this as enraging. The hardest work when converting things to braille isn't printing, but actually preparing the material for one of the most inefficient writing systems in the world. When you already figure out a suitable formatting to not have 10 books per one page of text, the rest is easy.
We have a braille printer at home, although I don't read this stuff myself. All you need to do is to insert paper, and you can have a full room of braille texts if you want, in less than few hours.
I would be rather curious, what usage did this guy find out for the paper. I doub't it regards touching it. May be he has wrote a scanning program for braille material, but relief version wouldn't be visible on scanner, so he needs to flatten it.
may be he wants to use it as... perhaps some filtration mechanism? I have no idea.
Anyway, thanks for sharing, I didn't see this yet either.
And yeah, blind community is definitely weird.
@2: when I think of societies from previous milenia - nazist, communists, british and ammerican slavers, ammerican color segregacy, postmillenial kids seem quite acceptable to me.
Yes, there is always place for improvement, but the overal situation is much much better, than it used to be. From my point of view, people who criticise the current generation are those, who don't realise, what it took to build the world as we know it today.
Plus we don't even know why does this guy want what he does, so talking about degrading things seems somewhat blindy to me. He may have a very good reason to do it.
But it matters opinion I guess.
Best regards
Rastislav
