Catching a Blue Shark (Prionace glauca) for tagging & release (scientific research), Isles of Scilly

"Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish. This shark, swallow you whole. Little shakin', little tenderizin', an' down you go."

All shot using real figures, lighting & miniatures. I digitally illustrated the shark & printed it out.

To celebrate 30 years of JAWS, we're launching a new training series highlighting notable features available in JAWS.

In our first session, we cover Quick Navigation Keys; what they are, how to use them, and how they make browsing the web more efficient with JAWS.

JAWS 2 - Trailer

On one hand:

Well, here we go y'all, the web has gotten so complex for blind people that we need an LLM to give us just the text from a page, or to tell us if a page has a buy button on it.

On the other hand:

Blind people have so few resources for learning websites and browsers that we don't know about Reader Mode, or any ways to, for example, get a Wikipedia page without all the annoying links in articles, or use the find command to search for a "buy" button.

Either way, needing an LLM for things like this is sad. I really hope it calls tools in JAWS to, say, use flexible web to get rid of article links instead of trying to return the whole page of plain text without AI hallucinations.

Pete and I take on the troubled, and occasionally terrifying, history of Universal Studios' Jaws ride in this week's The Lowdown on the Plus-Up.
It was a make or break attraction for the Orlando park... it broke.

Watched #Jaws for the first time in decades on the 4th. My wife saw it for the first time.
And so I am two days old since learning the film production company "Bad Hat Harry" is named after a throwaway line in that movie.

Yesterday I sped through the #NVDA Expert Certificate just to kill some time before dinner. Having used NVDA off and on again for several years I wanted to know how much still was in my head. Turns out it was enough to pass. Since I wanted to donate anyway I decided to order all their training material and since I passed the test, ordered a certificate as well. Still came in to about 10 percent of a #JAWS License. Looking forward to getting more familiar to working with MS Office with NVDA. Thanks for the amazing work you guys continue to do for #blind people around the world!
