It’s an all new That Real Blind Tech show, join us as we talk some tech and create a new word. Allison, Brian, and Jeanine gathered together in the That Real Blind Tech show lair to discuss the Apple Event and some other tech topics. 

 

We start off discussing the good of social media, and a unique way that people are using Air BnB to help send money to people in the Ukraine.

 

After discussing the Ukraine, we move on to the bizarre story about a man in Florida who was killed by a co-worker while in a Port A Potty, yes, while in a Port A Potty.

 

Does your FitBit have you all hot and bothered? Well, you are not alone. And we have heard of cellular networks throttling your connection speed, but now, phones are throttling app speeds, this is a new one. And Dropbox finally got an update out for M1 Macs, but what about M1 Ultra Macs?

 

Axe Con will be taking place on March 15th to the 17th, and you can catch Brian as part of the Yahoo Fantasy, It’s not just a game panel on Tuesday, March 15th at 130pm EST. You can register to attend this massive accessibility focused conference for free here. 

 

Apple kicked off its March event discussing two new colors for the iPhone 13 lineup. Apple must not have gotten the memo as AppleTV Plus is now offering Friday night baseball, of course there would have to be baseball played for this to happen.

 

The first new product that Apple announced is the iPhone SE third generation. This could be the most popular model of the iPhone for people who are blind. The M1 chip now comes to the new iPad Air.

 

Apple then announced the launch of the all new Mac Studio. Is it a laptop, desktop, bird or plane? And to monitor or not to monitor? On a more serious note, if someone is buying one of these new Mac Studios and using VoiceOver, should they bump up the Ram on a M1 machine.

 

We are not sure of the accessibility of the OCR Scanning Pen, and how accurate you need to be with it, but this could be a very promising product for the blind.

 

You are going to start hearing a lot about Matter, a process that will make all of your Smart Home devices communicate with each other better.

And of course it’s more of What’s Pissing Off Brian Now and Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.
