The Apple Vision Pro was the last thing to be announced at the end of Apple's WWDC23 conference on the 5th of June this year, that is supposed to move us into a new era of computing.
The device comes with features that will be familiar if you have had an iPhone, an iPad or an Apple Watch, while also offering AR / VR Features. And you can even use it with your eyes, your fingers or your voice.
But how accessible is it going to be for disabled users?
In this episode, I will give you my full thoughts.

August 13, 2023 61. I React to Apple's NEW M2 Mac Mini and 14"/16" MacBook Pros
The first Mac Mini came out in 2005, marking a way for new users of the Mac to start getting into it, thanks often to their lower price. If anyone wanted to get a Mac Mini, they would only have to buy the Mac Mini and a compatible display.
The MacBook Pro, meanwhile, was first launched in 2006, and was the first Mac EVER to feature a backlit keyboard. It was also the first to include a MagSafe power connector. But most important, it was originally only available in 15". This remained the case until 2019, when the 15" MacBook Pro was discontinued and replaced by the 16" model. Then in 2021 it was replaced again, that time by the 14".
But in January 2023, Apple announced their new Mac Minis and new 14" and 16" MacBook Pros, which have both been powered with the M2 Chip.
In this episode, you get to hear me reacting to their announcement and giving my thoughts.

August 12, 2023 60. My Thoughts / Feelings on a Customised DSi I Tested Part 1
In 2008, Nintendo launched the DSi, which was the third DS console to be released (the first one having been released in 2005).
It was the first Nintendo DS to include a camera (before even smartphones got that capability) and to have an audio player, while also being the second to get the Nintendo Web Browser, which allowed you to connect to the internet. But it was also the first to lose the Game Boy Advance slot which allowed gamers to play GameBoy games on a DS, which was disappointing for some.
However, while this was all groundbreaking for the time, there was still one downside to a couple of the games that the DSi — and other models — of the DS had, depending on whether or not you were a disabled person wanting to get into gaming, and that was when it came to not all the games being fully touch screen dependable, which is something I got annoyed about as a child.
That was until recently when I convinced Special Effect to create a customised DSi for me, which has an external switch port plugged into the stylus port so I can plug external gaming switches into it, which act as the L and R buttons, since those were buttons which I could never reach.
In this episode, you'll get to hear my first experience testing this customised DSi out.
