@1step I find comfortable when a bot is designed to describe images, such as AltBot, or Be My Eyes’s BeMyAI - you can also “chat” with the bot to ask questions in order to have further details on what the camera is focusing.
On web communities (forums and social networks) that should be comfortable if you tag the bot and it replies with the image description. But it should be temporary, as a 24/7 answering bot, replying to EVERY conversation in every moment or (worse) being set up for propaganda, makes the world a worse place - yes it can turn on flames (violent on line argues) so that you will not know if you are talking to a person, or punching the wall.
In my area we say “hey! Am I talking to the wall?” when someone is stubborn, does never understand what you say, won’t listen, does all the opposite of what you asked them to do.
We should change it “Oops, I’m talking to a robot”
@northernlights @selfhosted “re-using obsolete hardware that’s not obsolete” - I’m wondering how I could use my old (still working) macbook air, and my old Time Capsule. Instead of experimenting home lab with a new mini-pc, I was wondering if those 2 machines can be used somehow.
To be precise: I’m totally blind so I’d need at least something with audio or Braille working at boot, or right after. Such as BRLTTY running to set everything up and having then the machine being usable via ssh.
