"smart appliances" fuck u i want them dumb as a brick and incidentally as sturdy and enduring

#if i pay hundreds of dollars for an appliance it's only allowed to die kicking and screaming 30 years after purchase #and even then i expect the replacement parts to be in stock and easily installed fuck u

EDIT: Check out the linked thread, OP made some clarifications. It seems he added what he thought was a bookmark inside Google Search app, but it was a collection instead.

This makes it a problem of "confusing UI" and also whether collections that are not shared with anyone should be subject to moderation too. Which is still a problem, but of a lesser magnitude. --END OF EDIT

Replacing physical buttons and controls with touchscreens also means removing accessibility features. Physical buttons can be textured or have Braille and can be located by touch and don't need to be pressed with a bare finger. Touchscreens usually require precise taps and hand-eye coordination for the same task.

Many point-of-sale machines now are essentially just a smartphone with a card reader attached and the interface. The control layout can change at a moment's notice and there are no physical boundaries between buttons. With a keypad-style machine, the buttons are always in the same place and can be located by touch, especially since the middle button has a raised ridge on it.

Buttons can also be located by touch without activating them, which enables a "locate then press" style of interaction which is not possible on touchscreens, where even light touches will register as presses and the buttons must be located visually rather than by touch.

When elevator or door controls are replaced by touch screens, will existing accessibility features be preserved, or will some people no longer be able to use those controls?

Who is allowed to control the physical world, and who is making that decision?

#i get why this is happening; it's way cheaper to buy an off-the-shelf touch kiosk or tablet and run your ui on a web server #rather than integrating with custom hardware and physical inputs #but that should not just removing accessibility features #and I know that digital devices can help a lot with accessibility: e.g. screen readers #but I wouldn't rely on any of those being installed on someone else's device

I love tornado survival guides. "Shelter in a basement or interior room without any windows. But if you're in a mobile home, just fucking die I guess lol"

#did you know over half of deaths caused by tornados are residents of mobile homes?#which also means that they're primarily poor and elderly and disabled people #most places have absolutely no requirements for trailer parks to have safe shelter for residents during a tornado #personal tornado shelters cost $5000+ and many of them can't be installed in trailer parks because of neighborhood rules #and many parks are so isolated that going to find shelter somewhere else isn't safe or possible #it's safer to shelter inside a ditch outside than to stay in a mobile home during a tornado #and yet there's next to no effort to change laws to make trailer parks safer especially in emergencies #or even make other housing more accessible and available so people don't have to live in homes made of tissue paper #there's no tornado happening i'm just stressed
