Using High Contrast Mode on Firefox, Accessibility

-
I read on computer screens for at least 8-9 hours a day. The bright white/blue light from the screens can make my eyes tire easily so I use high contrast mode whenever possible. On a Windows computer you can switch between the default view to High Contrast Mode by pressing Alt + Shift + PrintScreen. However, this will turn everything on the computer high contrast which may not be what you want.

I use Firefox and Chrome for web browsing. Both of them have high contrast add-ons that you can enable to easily switch to high contrast mode.

For Firefox, find the add-on here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/dark-background-light-text/

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/dark-background-light-text/

After you have added the add-on, a new icon should appear on the top right corner. You can now switch between the different views by simply clicking the icon. It looks like this:


There is a similar add-on on Chrome, you can get it here if you are using Chrome as your browser:

IWEB trading platform, service review

-
Image
I had a frustrating experience today with my UK trading platform, IWEB. Upon logging in this morning, I was startled to see a message that my account was restricted and to call a provided number. I was perplexed about what could have triggered this. I called customer service, who speculated that an expired debit card on file may be the issue. After updating my details, I was told access would resume shortly. However, I remained unable to access my account the entire day, which was aggravating. While I understand technical problems occur, clearer communication and urgency from IWEB would have been appreciated in resolving this issue faster. IWEB is one of the ISA providers and shares dealing platforms in the UK, part of Lloyds Banking Group. I have been with them for several years. Customer service is usually friendly, and there is a web-chat service which I like. They offer the most competitive 'cost per trade' without a minimum number of trades per month (that I know of), and

    For all the young gamer out there Lately, after completing my professional qualification, I’ve had more time to pursue my hobbies and gaming has been one of my favorites. I find it both stimulating and relaxing to experience different worlds and challenges. I also believe that gaming in moderation has some real-life benefits. For example, it can teach problem-solving skills, teamwork, and creativity. These are all skills that can be applied to other areas of life, such as work and school. I believe that successful gamers can transfer these gaming skills and mindsets to other areas of life. Follow my channel, I need subscribers!
