Episode 71 – Braille Nipples

The gang is back together once again in the That Real Blind Tech Show virtual lair.

 

We start off talking about a possible Y2K Part two on the news that the chrome and Firefox browsers may stop working with some websites as they hit version 100.? Then it is on to Brian’s latest favorite story of the year, about a man who shut down his town’s internet while trying to curb his kids screen time.

 

Facebook continues to rebrand and they have changed the name of the News Feed to, well, you will never guess what! And blow the dust off the app, but we actually have some KNFB news.

 

If you have an old PC or Mac lying around as a paper weight then you may want to think about turning it in to a chrome book using the new Google Chrome flex. But of course, is the process accessible?

 

We then talk a little medical science and if we have ever been approached about a cure for our blindness. This leads us to the disturbind story of Second Sight and Argus the second. On a some what related note, are carriers shutting down 3G networks too soon? And on the heals of 3G going bye bye, Wifi 7 is coming, but wait didn’t Wifi 6 just get here?

 

With inflation rocketing up we decided to discuss a little prep work for making sure those finances are secure. We then dive in to how much each of us is worth, and you might be surprised by this! We then discuss the rising cost of Amazon Prime and Netflix. 

 

CSUN is coming up in March, but has the conference Jumped the Shark?AxeCon is coming this March 15th to the 17th, you can sign up to virtually attend here.
