RNIB Tech Talk

370: Clubhouse Accessibility, M1 vs Intel, and Wrestling Octopuses


Listen Later

Time for a little taste of Tech Talk!

On today's show, Steven, Robin, Tim and Andy are joined by a new voice - please welcome Callum Stoneman! Steven throws Callum right into the deep end early on, with questions like "who are you?" and "what have you done with your life?", but we soon move on to less threatening topics such as first PC's, braille, preferred smartphone makers and more.

Also on today's show, we talk a little more at length about Clubhouse, and the recent update which aims to improve accessibility. Regarding the chat app as a whole, Tim and Steven are a little bit addicted, Robin's nonplussed, and Andy has total FOMO, being the Android fan he is. So has the update done enough? Also, what about security, or moderation?

In one of our emails this week, a listener asks Steven to compare the Apple M1 Chip with an Intel-based Apple machine, specifically if battery life any more important than overall performance, we talk a little more about iOS vs Android, but this time a listener asking: "what about Synapptic?" and Steven compares something to wrestling an octopus!

We sadly ran out of time to mention in this week's show, but Robin wanted to talk about the next AbilityNet Accessibility Insights webinar series, this time with The Valuable 500 campaign founder Caroline Casey! Find out more here:

Catch you all next week :)
