Along with plenty of subterfuge.
Always fighting fire with fire tends to leave nothing but destruction in its wake. Do you really think the only valid way to resist is head-on? I guarantee the Nazis would have won if that were the primary tactic used to fight them.
If I didn't have a family depending upon me, maybe. Escalation such as you describe carries a much higher risk of retaliation, and really is what they are doing this kind of thing for so they can spin it to fit their "victim" complex. While I don't have a problem giving my life for a worthwhile cause, I DO have a problem doing so in what will only in effect be a symbolic effort that is extremely unlikely to accomplish anything significant. I'd rather find more effective (and probably subtle) ways to undermine them.
Or on Android you can use YTDLnis which provides a nice frontend with lots of flexibility as to what is downloaded.
Sure, because there was no warning of this crap display of cowardice (masks), & everyone just happens to carry cans of paint around to do such a thing. 🙄
I have a few Google Home Minis, and so far as I know they are the same thing - just rebranded. It's basically the same thing as Google Assistant built into every Google-approved/equipped (meaning it has their full suite of apps pre-installed) device. They're just so limited. I know of no way to get them to read Lemmy posts as in my added second example.
I also thought of another use case for what I'm after that might be more universally applicable and easily understood. Imagine someone doing some relatively mindless menial job such as working an assembly line, janitorial work, chauffer - something where your mind is relatively unoccupied, but you're not free to look at and/or touch your device (whether it be due to practicality, or job rules). While doing that job, I want to be able to have the device read and interact with something of interest to me at that moment (ADHD is a fickle mistress), rather than just relying on podcasts with predefined content. Kind of like having someone next to me doing all the interfacing between me and the device.
(EDIT: minor swipe keyboard corrections.)
Yeah, I wouldn't just jump in without looking first. If I can't find a way to do this, then I'm definitely gonna have to take a trip to the nearest Apple Store, though. Thanks very much for the input!
iOS will open your Lemmy client, start reading posts to you aloud, and go into a post of interest upon command without you ever looking at or touching the screen (using my newer example that I added to the OP)? I'm seriously going to have to look into getting an iDevice of some sort if so.
Imagine someone blind who also has Parkinson's - they can't see to use Voice Access, and they can't control their hands well enough to interact with the screen physically in a reliable manner using TalkBack. You can't actually use those two accessibility features together - they are mutually exclusive in that they require you either be able to see the screen, OR you must be able to interact with it physically as it reads out what you're touching. Why is there no way to interact entirely verbally?
ETA: please see my added example in OP.
TBF, that's not a very good litmus test since anyone protesting the Palestinian genocide has been accused of the same, which we all know is utter bullshit.
Forgot to mention the panicked brain freeze when you found out you miscounted.
Not a category in interested in, but I did take a spin through your collection on GitLab. You lost all credibility with me when I saw your top web browser pick was Brave.
