Lecturer @Umich. Crip. Occasional Art Person. Professional Chatter. Desire+Disability+Media = my jam, jelly, and daily bread. He/Him/His. My views are my own.
@JessRauchberg There is a whole suite of these ads on social media and I am.,. Baffled. Considering that it is a common assignment for me to ask undergrad students to tell me what AI summarization leaves out because AI, as we know is horrible at synthesis. 🫠
@JessRauchberg I am happy to have a longer conversation about this! I rely on Dragon every day, after all. Specifically, the only one suited for long term, complex writing—Dragon Professional Individual 16. Don't even THINK about the home version.
@JessRauchberg As for software I actually USE to write—EndNote, Scrivner, and Evernote are all platform agnostic—as is Snagit, my absolutely favorite screen shot software. Sorry. 🫠 Like most disabled people I know...I have a techie side. Text macros is a whole 'nother discussion.
@JessRauchberg It depends on what software you need/how you want to write. The battery power (life) on the M series macs are no joke. That's why my teaching machine is a mac...and I'm a simp for Alfred. But, I am also platform agnostic because Dragon runs natively on Windows.
So, Google is now translating cultural/dialectical codes into "standard" English. This is simultaneously funny and a bit...sad. Still, an excellent teaching tool.
@JessRauchberg Yay! I am excited to see it rise! For better or for worse, I went into grad school *obsessed* with disability, (and art and culture). But I know other people who have been told the same. It's 💩 of course. I'm glad you weren't dissuaded.
I'm closing out my first Console-ling Passions. Lovely conference... but how come no one is hyping Future Janeway? ALWAY hype the Janeway! I love the nerds who did this... #CPbloom@ConsolePassions
@MaldalSteve True, there were fewer character-building episodes, but... there is a reason Season 1's Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad is one of my favorite episodes of the series. It's FULL of quiet character moments—alright, with Stammetz—but who doesn't like Stammetz?
Exciting news: Technoskepticism: Between Possibility and Refusal, by @DISCOnetwork_, will be the 6th volume in the Sensing Media book series that I co-edit at @stanfordpress with @whkchun @ericawetter https://t.co/w2joBPh1pt
