Antivirus360 Remover with free scan

I’m sure many of you have seen the news about the winter storms that have been hitting the Pacific Northwest for the last week, including the various Microsoft Campuses in the Redmond area.   Our facilities team has been sending out notifications about road and sidewalk conditions, and what services we should expect to be unavailable should we decide to brave the weather and come into the office.

I grew up in Madison, Wisconsin which has some pretty fierce winters.  I’ve got to say, this is nothing.  Now, granted, Madison has a different attitude towards snow than Seattle does because Madison is prepared to deal with it.  Madison doesn’t have huge hills that buses shouldn’t go down, or long bridges, or – you know – nearly as many people.  Madison has more snow plows, and for the most part, Madisonians are better equipped to drive in the snow.

The other day, I heard the news tell people that the temperatures outside would cause frostbite after 30 minutes of exposure.  When I was young, I remember hearing warnings that the temperature outside would cause frostbite in 30 *seconds*.  (And I went to school up-hill both ways, and did my homework on the back of a shovel, and one day when the cow was sick, I…)

Anyway, I bring all of this up because Raymond Chen has posted a (fake) Facilities notice that was sent by our friends and colleagues in the Fargo, North Dakota campus that puts things in perspective.

Needless to say, however, I’m working remotely today.

Using a computer should not always be limited to people without disabilities. While some interfaces through computer accessories as the keyboard and mouse may become a shortfall, it remains that new solutions are bound to be on the horizon to help broaden the use of computers for the benefit of the ones who are unfortunately disabled in nature.

Remember virtual reality? Well it looks like we are being drawn to its second coming. Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia seems to have come up with an alternative interface gadget known as the “datagloves” that allows the computer to monitor the person’s hand or shoulder movements. This input can then be fed to a program, a game, or simulator, or to control a character, an avatar, in a 3D virtual environment.

So once this system has been perfected, it looks like the use of computers have gone a bit broader and no longer limited to the people who employ normal means of maximizing the privileges brought about by the computer age.

“We developed two gesture recognition systems: DESigning In virtual Reality (DesIRe) and DRiving for disabled (DRive). DesIRe allows any user to control dynamically in real-time simulators or other programs. DRive allows a quadriplegic person to control a car interface using input from just two LEDs on an over-shoulder garment. For more precise gestures, a DataGlove user can gesture using their fingers,” the authors said.

The evolution of widening the computer utilization scope is only to be expected. Technology is aggressively covering all bases to help people, both normal and disabled”, appreciate their true intent. With these developments, another potential privilege for people who feel limited has been opened.
