If you like video editing on Linux, you may want to check out SDF's own Peertube!

Mikeycal's video tutorials were my first real introduction to video editing on Linux that I felt worked for me. I'm immensely grateful for the work he's put into helping others learn about Blender's NLE.

Just providing some unrequested feedback: The bottom of the sidebar text about the mod's familiar tools and descriptions should be a post! Maybe stickied so that there's quick access to good tools for people who are just looking to get started.

A friend introduced me to Lossless-cut recently, and it is my new favorite tool in the toolbox.

I've been interested in peertube for a while. That's good to know, thanks!

Came across this over on Mastodon, seemed like a good fit for this community.

Ramps are assistive technology, right?

 

I went to university with someone who had a cochlear implant, and he rarely used it because of the reasons listed in this article. Instead he'd just rely on his excellent context awareness and us other students' meager sign language attempts.

I don't know how to do image captions in Lemmy, so I'm putting a text description of the image here instead: The post's main image is of a large format spiral bound booklet open to a middle page. The paper is manila colored and shows wavy wrinkles from years of use. On the page is a list of planet names in black text with braille embossed over it. At the bottom of the page is a chart of the planets arranged in a line, with each planets dot embossed so it can be felt. The top right corner has a NASA logo which is also embossed.

 

I visited the local planetarium recently, and this booklet caught my eye. Each page has the images embossed so they can be felt, and the text is all duplicated in braille.

The amateur astronomers here like to expound on how exploring the cosmos can instill a sense of wonder and awe. I think finding more ways to share that with people who would otherwise be left out is an important area for assistive technologies and design.

I'm modelling a pencil holder version of the star projector at the planetarium I volunteer for.

 

Openscad wanted about 25 gig of RAM to crunch this.

 

I came across this and found it too interesting not to share.

That is nuts. Thank you for the added context!

It looks pretty bulky for now, but seems like a promising advancement.

Wow, that laptop was my family's computer growing up. Star Gate nostalgia hits different here.
