Re: Why don’t we have any comic books
Re: Why don’t we have any comic books Comicstorian does just fine, in my view. Check out Comics Explained and Variant Comics as well. I also tend to look up characters online with the search as *character name* Character Comic Vine and they'll give you a pretty good rundown of things. I wish we had comics, comics are my passion, it's taken me a lot to build up the knowledge I have. If you have any questions, please, don't hesitate to ask.

Re: Anyone listen to metal?
Re: Anyone listen to metal? I have a playlist that consists of some things that aren't to some things that are. I have Alter Bridge, Amaranthe, Bad Wolves, Slipknot, Five Finger Death Punch, Gojira, Wage War, Breaking Benjamin, and my all time favorite band, Ice Nine Kills. Oh and Avenged Sevenfold. What I'm saying is, I love metal. I go to Rock USA every year, and they usually have a great lineup.

Re: The BrailleNote Touch is Getting a Much Deserved Upgrade
Re: The BrailleNote Touch is Getting a Much Deserved Upgrade Jack, I have a question for you. You keep using the term "Cell transplant." Does this mean they're using the same display I have now?

Re: Important! Anyone who uses NVDA should fill out this NVAccess Survey.
Re: Important! Anyone who uses NVDA should fill out this NVAccess Survey. An issue I've found is that at times, NVDA will just lag intensely. Speech refuses to interrupt when I hit control, and it won't even interrupt itself with other words. For example, I type with characters turned on. I'm a writer so I like to hear what I'm typing. And when the characters won't interrupt each other, it gets really frustrating. So I restart NVDA... which fixes it for about three minutes. Then it's back to the same old thing. A total computer restart is often required.

Re: Chronicles of Narnia Audiodrama
Re: Chronicles of Narnia Audiodrama The Focus On The Family one was a surprise gift from my mother a few years ago. I didn't know about GraphicAudio back then, so I was tickled pink by the concept of an audio book that wasn't the same guy droning on and on and on. The sound design is less impactful than, say, GraphicAudio, such as the fact that footsteps sound much more halting and sometimes the audio isn't as refined as predone sound libraries are, but Focus On The Family makes their own sounds so it's actually pretty amazing. I have the collection now, and it's in a nice shiny collector's tin with a Map of Narnia included. The stories are loved by all, no matter the age, though as I've grown up I have realized that the books are a bit boring the older you are, and shorter, the longest one is about 3 hours, so you could listen to a book in the space of time it takes you to watch one of the Lord Of The Rings movies. I'd get it, the Focus On The Family one, that is. It's quite fun.

Re: I just got back from the movies and... I'm an avid moviegoer. In fact, I plan to go tomorrow to Bumblebee. The ticket prices are five dollars on Tuesdays at the Marcus Cinema around here, so I plan to go to that. That being said, I usually have to pay a bit extra for the Dram Lounger seats, basically leather recliners, since there's more space for my service dog to rest on the floor. But yes, my friends and I go to plenty of movies together. We saw Predator, Venom, Infinity War, Incredibles 2 and Into The Spiderverse in 2018 alone. Oh yes, and Black Panther. This year promises to be no different. I'm going to ask them about Glass, since I haven't seen Split and Unbreakable yet but I plan to, then we've got The Lego Movie AND How To Train Your Dragon 3 next month, Captain Marvel the month after that, Hellboy and Avengers: Endgame that month, Detective Pikachu and Godzilla the month after, Men In Black International and Toy Story 4 in June, Spider-Man: Far From Home and The Lion King in July, An empty August and September, then Zombieland 2, maybe, sometime in October, Kingsmen 3 in November, closing out the year with Star Wars Episode 9 in December. So it's going to be a very, very busy year for us movie fans. And a very, very hurtful year for our wallets...

Re: Braille: A philosophy Enes... I have no idea where you're getting your figures, but I don't know of a print reader, ever, who can read 1000 words per minute.

You may only be able to read 50-60 words a minute, which is fine, but again, a lot of this is personal preference.

Re: Braille: A philosophy
Re: Braille: A philosophy I think what it comes down to is the fact that people want to take the easy way out. The people I've spoken to who are staunch supporters of screen reading have all said, "It's easier." That makes me sad as well, for the simple fact that people are too quick to take the easy way out which is not always a benefit. I want to make this clear: I also use a screen reader, as is evidenced by the fact that I play audiogames. But that's about the extent of it, besides Twitter and Facebook. One other thing to note: People who may not speak English primarily will make spelling mistakes, hell, you should see me try to write in Spanish, it's atrocious. But sometimes, when English speakers are writing illegibley... That worries me.

Re: Braille: A philosophy
Re: Braille: A philosophy Afrim, it's interesting you bring that up because I actually had a debate with someone about that very same topic not long ago. While yes, Braille displays do a lot less than mainstream computers, consider this: Computer manufacturers are selling to a higher number of people. They can afford to make their prices significantly less, because their devices are in much higher production and much higher profit. Now a braille device is usually A, bought by a school district for one or more students or B, bought by a select group of people who can raise the money for it, their profit is significantly less. And there are multiple things besides the technological aspects. You have to take into account licensing agreements, labor costs, part costs, distribution, repairing, like any other tech company would have to. But again, the reason braille devices are so outlandishly pricey is the simple fact they need to do it to make a living.

Braille: A philosophical Essay
Braille: A philosophical Essay Hello, everyone. It is I, the self-styled philosopher, here with another topic that has been eating away at me for years now. First, let me begin with some background on myself. I was not born blind. A rather aggressive brain tumor destroyed my optic nerves, leaving me completely blind at the age of two. At the age of three, I was enrolled in the early childhood program at my elementary school. And, here, I began to learn braille. I studied it diligently for years, until I was about seven years old, whereupon my training was complete. I had read for four years then and discovered I loved it. So I read...And read...And read a bit more after that...Competed in some Braille Challenges...Read more...Went to high school...Read...Applied for college and got accepted...And here we are now.Some rather disturbing developments have come up of late, though. As I am an avid braille reader, I will attest to the fact that braille is important. Extremely so. But lately, it's come to my attention that some people would rather read through audio or screen reader than braille itself. This at it's core is personal preference, something I cannot disrespect anyone for. But the phrase that strikes me as the most disturbing is, "Braille is dying." Let me pause in my philosophical ramblings to say that, as most of you may know, I am a writer, and hold my ability to spell and use grammar in high regard. I apologize if that sounds arrogant and ironic, for I'm sure I'll end up finding out I've made a few errors here.Back to the subject at hand. There is an increasing amount of blind people who are leaning away from braille and going to audio and screen reading technology. Again, personal preference. But what strikes me as the most concerning is that braille holds such little importance to them. One of the analogies or similes I like to use is "Braille is to us as print is to the sighted." The sighted are constantly reading print, be it on street signs, apps, newspapers, books, etc. You could, however, make an argument here that they have the choice of audio, which they do, but in day to day life that's not practical. I'd like to further expand upon this. From the beginning I have made it appear as if blind people are braille illiterate. Quite the contrary, most aren't, they just don't read it as much. But the main issue I have with not using braille is this: How does it affect your spelling?WAIT! STOP! DON'T GO! This is not grammar Nazi Dragomier at your service. This is where I bring the two communities into one final point. The sighted, as I have said, read print all the time. Because that's what's practical. And, as a result, their spelling is better. Some may disagree on this. Some may ask me to provide proof. Which, if this sparks a debate, (note the word debate, not flame war), then I will, but for now I'm diverging from the foint. I've noticed a rapidly degrading quality of spelling among the blind community, be it through the excusable dictation features (which are finnicky at best), or just because they don't see the words writen, per se. I'm not so arrogant as to say I never make the stupid mistakes, such as putting two p's in proper or two t's in writen, but what my point will always return to is that if you examine a braille reader's type over a non-braille reader's, both parties being blind of course, you'll notice a mass difference. My conclusion is simly a request: Tell me what you agree and disagree upon. I hope that a lively debate will come of this. And, again, apologies on my part are in order if I sound arrogant. That is not my goal in the least. Again, if you would, tell me what you think.

The Effect of Cliches on a Story: A Writer's Inquiry
The Effect of Cliches on a Story: A Writer's Inquiry Hello everyone,As you may have deduced from the title of this topic, I am considering the effect of tropes, cliches, and other such plot devices in my writing.This all began last night, after I completed The Hero of Kendrickstone, (finally.) I saw that there was to be a sequel, so I went to look for one. I read a few reviews of the game, and they said the world was rather generic. And that struck me. Hard. Because I enjoy that sort of high fantasy. So, I wondered, what does that say about my writing? Are cliches a bad thing? Am I a simple-minded want-to-be fantasy author? These questions continue to trouble me, and I'd like to ask writers, film critics or just the casual observer of where you think cliches fit into movies, books, etc. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=333665#p333665 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Contemplations of A Soon-to-be Adult
Contemplations of A Soon-to-be Adult Hello, everyone. I have not posted about myself in many a month, and I'm ending that streak here, now. I'm seventeen years old. I'll be turning eighteen in three months. A huge milestone. I've been accepted to my choice college with scholarship, have my major chosen, and it looks like all is set to go... but then, my mind took me places and my contemplative side came out. And, with that, came this post. This question, before I post what I wrote on Facebook, is for the adults of the forum: Is it as challenging and terrifying as it all seems? To me, this is a song of transition. A song of growing older, of growing wiser. But I look back, and the memories this song holds with it, and I'm man enough to admit I have to brush back a few tears. I'm going to miss this, the simple, childish innocence I no longer hold. The simplicity of life has fled with the years... And in ways that's a good thing. But, where once was confidence i n the future now lies a great deal of trepidation. I can do this. I know that in my heart and my soul. Yet, I hold doubts. I hold fears. I hold the desperate nerve of someone looking into the uncertain. And while I find myself prepared for the future... I find myself dreading it at the same time. I've grown though. I've grown to accept the inevitable. I'll be pursued by these hardships. I'll be hounded doggedly by the demons I cannot shed with a simple number change. Yet I hold the ability to shove them aside. Strike them down. Will I, though? When the time comes, will I fight, or will I be defeated? I suppose that's all up to me.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sKH0lvDs8U URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=330165#p330165 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

The Reading Order Of A Few Books
The Reading Order Of A Few Books Hey there,So, I'm looking for the proper order of The Witcher books, the originals by Andrzej Sapkowski. I tried to find it on Goodreads, I usually do that when looking for reading orders, but I couldn't find the correct page. Also, I was looking for the order of The Dwarves series by Markus Heitz, and I found a page for that on goodreads, but every title after Book One is in German so I was unable to figure that out. Thanks for the help.

Game Center for iOS?
Game Center for iOS? Hello all. Now this has been an issue that has been irking me for a long time. I'm unsure of what is going on, but for some odd reason I cannot find Game Center on my device. I may have deleted it without knowing one day or something, but I cannot find it. I get the occasional notification somehow, but all of my games are rather pointless in terms of achievements now. Any ideas or information?

My Halloween Plans
My Halloween Plans Hey all. So, I've recently decided I'm going to go as Legolas from the Lord Of The Rings for Halloween. The thing is, I will need help with certain things.I know where I can buy the blade and the bow, but I don't know what to do for boots and a cloak. I can probably use my hunting knives for daggers, but those being real blades, it'd probably not be the best idea. Does anyone know where I could find some of these things?

Re: ft...@home.samtupy.com
Re: ft...@home.samtupy.com Sam, I see many flaws with this. While there is no issue in making an FTP server, it is rather risky to make a public one.As you said, this is a very easy way to distribute viruses. They are not your files, so people are constantly running the risk of infection. I believe that this should've been made private, with people who can be trusted. I've nothing else much to say, so I leave you with this: Rethink this, and make any necessary changes if you do indeed decide to change the status of the server.

Re: New IPhone september 16 2016
Re: New IPhone september 16 2016 Here's my stance.While others most likely use their iPhone more than I use mine and the earphone jack thing would affect them more adversely, I am just a casual user. I mainly use my iPhone for Netflix and music.Now, I know what you're thinking, the earphone jack is a huge part of that. But I also know when and where I can charge my phone and I'm prepared. As for accessibility, that's part of it, and to be honest I've not noticed many bugs other than some auto gain issues at times and the rotor issue, which are both easy to work around. I'm not blindly following Apple, I'm a Windows person myself, but their phones do what I need them to and that's enough for me.

Re: New IPhone september 16 2016
Re: New IPhone september 16 2016 I have to put in my opinion on the situation I see here. Alright, keep in mind I'm not telling you it's required you buy an iPhone 7, cause let's face it, in today's financial situation, who has the cash unless you're with some program? What gets me is people were going to flip to Android in a heartbeat because of, granted a rather inconvenient design switch, and some voiceover issues. Now, granted, I do wish they'd fix the rotor issue, but you also have to remember that even with their new apps, they've coded in the spoken hints, so they have, in no way, forgotten about us. But again, those are the only two reasons I've seen you guys going against Apple, and I've been reading since about post 50. Now if you can tell me some other reasons you're disenchanted with Apple, I might be able to figure out why you'd want to flip to Android so quickly. Again, your choices are your own but it seems as though you were going to make a ha sty platform switch because of two things. I'm expecting some reprimands because even I can see how foolish my post could be read as, but I've been watching from afar and again, I've only seen the earphone jack and the accessibility bugs as your issues.

Figment, your tone of voice is rather... how shall I put this... cruel for what Bryant is saying. I do not seek to start an issue here but I think that this whole earphone jack issue is starting way to much controversy and we are forgetting to consider the other pros and cons of the new device.

Re: New IPhone september 16 2016
Re: New IPhone september 16 2016 The Player, I think you're having a lot of misconceptions here.Let me start by saying, I watched the Apple Keynote from Wednesday, I believe it was, and that opened my eyes to a lot of what they are doing with the iPhone 7.A lot of people seem to be afraid of this new innovation regarding the lack of an earphone jack. And again, let me state, that an adapter is indeed included in the box.Secondly, they did not do this for looks, they did this to make the phone dust/water resistant.Third, yes, I will agree with you that bluetooth lags quite a bit, but I don't think that's an exclusive VoiceOver thing. When attempting to play A Blind Legend, and keep in mind I have VoiceOver off, with a Bluetooth headset, there was still a delay.Apple is not trying to lock us in in any way, shape or form. They are not making it required to purchase the new phone, like other companies have done, I.E. Gaming companies making it required to upgrade consoles to be able to play certain games.Let me also add that in the box there are a set of wireless earbuds.Let me conclude by saying your opinion is still your own, but I hope this has cleared some of the fears, worries, and frustrations up a bit.

Re: New IPhone september 16 2016
Re: New IPhone september 16 2016 Drak, if I can respectfully refute one of your claims above, you do not need to purchase the adapter, it is included in the box at no additional cost. I hate to appear as a shallow capitalist who will buy anything and everything, but I've done some in depth musings and considerations, and I do think I am willing to adapt. Maybe my post could have been worded alternatively, but I still think I can adapt to this change.

Re: New IPhone september 16 2016
Re: New IPhone september 16 2016 I've not had the time to read through this whole topic, but I will say I am willing to upgrade to iPhone 7. I figure, we're all going to have to upgrade someday. Some Apple users might switch to Android but the ones that wish to stick with Apple will eventually have to get used to the lack of a normal earphone jack so why not get used to it now before other things are built upon it, thus making it harder to adapt to? That's doubtful though, because Apple would have to make it useful for people just coming to their service.

Re: Zombies vs unicorns
Re: Zombies vs unicorns I quite enjoyed the book The Rising by Brian Keene, in which the zombies are actually Satan and his minions, technically, taking revenge upon the creator. What makes them more dangerous is the fact that they can use guns and drive cars and the like. As for unicorns, you may be right. In Simon R. Greene's Forest Kingdom Saga, book 1, there is a unicorn though he's not a prominent part of the story. In no way is he not there he's just not as prominently involved.
