The closed captioning on NFL Prime Thursday Night Football SUCKS! It's utter jibberish. How disrespectful to those who rely on CC to follow the action on and off the field.

I now have my hearing aid
It has Bluetooth so I can listen to music and change the mode on my phone including to lock in on the bus announcements frequency so I don't miss the stop names or if the bus driver says anything.

KBtL wants to thank our amazing Interpreters! Interpreters convey not only the words that are being said, they also help give context and tone that might not come through with closed captions. Deaf and hard of hearing folks belong in kink!

A minimum HD webcam of 720p, 3. Camera on participation, 4. Real-time transcription, 5. Give agenda details in advance, 6. Visible speaker names, 7. Arrange for interpreters

WCAG compliance isn't the finish line. Deaf, HoH & DeafBlind users need information they can receive, understand & act on. Accessibility demands more.

Maybe I'll try slowing it down, to give my brain more time to fill in the gaps.

Super bummed tho.

Consumer technology has been moving in a steady direction for decades with human speech, such as with live transcriptions. However, sign language has largely been left out of this change, which could assist millions of #Deaf and #HardOfHearing users. But that omission may be narrowing: zurl.co/Jf8bC

AI's ability to process spoken languages has advanced rapidly over recent decades. Yet this technological revolution has not reached the estimated 70 million #Deaf and #HardOfHearing people who use sign language.

Google's new sign-language-to-text (SL2T) feature may change this: zurl.co/hPF3y

Labels are a guide for resources. They do not define us. Hearing loss is not who I am, it's how I communicate.

Like what do I *do* here? I'm not that great at reading lips and I already use captions and subtitles for everything I possibly can. I don't have captions IRL! *flips tables and chairs* #HardOfHearing

By nerve impingement, I have a bony overgrowth literally compressing the auditory & facial nerve on both sides. It causes ear pain, vertigo, tinnitus & hemifacial spasm. Surgeon won't touch it, more likely to harm me than help, so I'm stuck unable to understand speech half the time #HardOfHearing

and what's funny is that my hearing *is* damaged. I had unusually acute hearing in high school (last time I got my hearing checked before I got diagnosed with the nerve compression). I used to be able to hear an ultrasound wand, the fridge, fluorescent lights. I can't anymore. #HardOfHearing

I'm very frustrated. I can't understand the tv, or my kid, or my husband. Gods forbid I'm doing literally anything that makes noise. Even a fan on low turns everything to gobbledygook. I have to turn off every single thing making noise just to understand what's being said sometimes #HardOfHearing

Like it's not *just* regular auditory processing problems but The Test cannot show the issue and nothing can be done to correct the actual problem, so I must simply suffer and that is just what always fucking happens to me bcuz gods forbid anyone care about a Black bitch's suffering #HardOfHearing
