So Project Gameface has been released from Google. I truly hope it lasts more than 5 minutes a lot of Google projects last for. I have a weird hope it will as it’s been fully open-sourced from day 1 (& complete)- but then again, it’s really half-baked ... willwa.de/2023/05/16/so-…

Congratulations to @RossCalder74 from @NackNighthawks for winning a national @PHECanada Impact Award this week! Ross works tirelessly for his school, his community and his province! @ASD_West and @NBPES are extremely proud of your achievements!

ALS in its most advanced stages changes not only your perspective on life but the core essence of who you are. When I lost my ability to walk during my first year of symptoms, I was still concerned of my new image as a disabled person and how I was seen by society. I bought a fancy wheelchair and tried to continue with my life as normally possible. Fast forward six years later, I am writing this post with my eyes, hooked to a ventilator. It's been three years since I had real food or heard the sound of my voice. The questions I ask myself now have drastically changed. Instead of being concerned of my image, I'm more concerned with my relationship with God. Furthermore, I ponder about my place in this universe rather than in society. Before, I lamented over fading relationships, whereas now I'm at peace being by myself. The glamour and noise of galas, award ceremonies, film screenings, and fundraising walks doesn't intrigue me as much as finding that moment of silence where time seems to stand still. Lastly, realizing how much love you leave this world with will ultimately determine your legacy. #ALSAwarenessMonth

@BrannonZ @joshculpart Wrist straps might be interesting to try instead of mounting controllers! (And cheaper) We use straps on VR controllers…

@joshculpart Oh wow, never thought of that. Makes sense! What about wrist straps?

Alright! I'm curious: If you could have one accessibility feature or design change on Xbox, what would it be? #a11y #Xbox

@KUPOCARE @OneSwitch Cool, I’d love more info! We are always looking for ways to mount controllers for gamers.

🎮 Working on innovative mounting adapters for #Xbox and various controller types! 🕹️ Is there a demand for these types of products? 🤔 Let us know! 💬 #GamingAccessories #ControllerAdapters #GamingCommunity #Accessibility #Disability #A11y
