Hiya there! I am DeafBlind so windows' interfaces aren't the best for me. But you might get further help if you try searching that exact error. Which you should then be able to follow in the Windows' interface on how to fix it.
That how 95% of computer errors are resolved. So it should comes in handy. :)
Hey, I've been meaning to ask you this, but you're both deaf and blind? And that's interesting that Windows doesnt't have good interfaces, since I always heard Windows is better in that department compared to Linux.
That is indeed correct and thanks for asking of me! :) Indeed, I believe Linux USUALLY ships with customizations for their interfaces. On Linux Mint, I can change the themeing, color of folders, display settings and so forth. Add on top that Linux Mint ships with good accessibility settings (that's normally literally hundreds otherwise/user) it's a pretty significant thing to me.
The only thing that gets me that I have to restart the interface (Desktop Environment) every time I goes into Minetest full screen. Since i need to switch off the accessibility settings. Since the game already comes with MANY scaling options so I can still plays it provided it's also in full screen.
Yo, you have those issues in life? How do you live with that? Is it partial blindness (I assume)?
I practice MMA and have been trying to learn back kick recently, and with my full sight and senses, I am having inaccuracy at hitting target. I cannot imagine daily life without my hawk eye sight.
Thank you very much for asking of me and caring to be of understanding of me. :) That is indeed correct, I am DeafBlind meaning as you guessed significant lack of vision as well as hearing. My biggest concerns are actually being able to be involved in finding people and possibly comes something of it. Which is why up until I created my deafblindminetestgaming.com site. I been having issues with this because I lost my most involved forum I was in to supar staffing of helping me with two concerning reports. As well as Discord giving me such pains with my account because it's being "comprised" regardless of the passwords I use. So I had to stop using it as their 2FA is a piece of trash ONLY allowing smartphones. Which doesn't works for me. :(
So yea a LOT had happened the first half of the year and still trying to "get back up to speed" to this very day.
Before I used to assume the DB in your name meant Dragon Ball.
Discord indeed has issues, and it is simply running well because the lowest common denominator userbase just accepts whatever is thrown at them. I use Discord, and it is not the best, but simply has custom emojis and granular moderation for free as selling point.
I hope you can get back, and atleast have a backup plan setup now for your posts and forum/server comms.
You have a server, and you build these Minecraft style maps and stuff. I feel legitimately dumber and weaker, with my perfect sight and senses, and I must say you motivate me to do better in life. o7
