Episode 189 - Brain Fartery

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech Show with just Brian and the Ladies. That's right it's Allison, Jeanine, and Brian bringing you the latest Assistive Tech news without the dudes. Or well with one dude.   We start off on a somber note mourning the passing of Kiss'es Ace Frehley, and then dive in to the upcoming Laugh For Sight on Monday, October 27, 2025 at Gotham Comedy Club in NYC. For tickets go here.   Our first article we discuss is a fun one as a Brain Fart Scientist explains why NFL players from the ball at the goal line.   We go from a Brain Fart study to a study about why birds poop on certain cars more than others.   We have had a lot of rebrandings this year, but thanks to Maxwell House we may now have the dumbest rebranding of all time!   The Department of Justice once again has decided to shelf any new ADA ruling on Digital Accessibility.   Do you find that you are chronically online? And is it a bad thing?   It's the end of an era as Tivo sleeps with the fishes as they stop selling dVR's.   Roku's new Voice Assistant can answer questions about what you are watching, but yeah how is Roku's accessibility?   Since it has been a few weeks since we last recorded, and once again pardon the audio on this episode, as someone had a brain fart and hit the wrong keyboard shortcut causing us to be unable to record on multi-track, but we dive in to all the new products that Amazon announced. The conversation then strolls in to Alexa Plus.   Open A.I. wants ChatGPT to be your future operating system. Would you want that?   Figure A.I invented a humanoid robot that can do the dishes, fold your clothes, and tidy up a room.   The Albanian Government has appointed the first A.I. official to its Government.   Is your electric bill insanely high? Maybe you should check how close you are living to a Data Center. Which leads us in to discussing how we are using A.I.   We then get Jeanine's opinion of Mac OS Tahoe and how it is running with VoiceOver. We then discuss the new M5 Macs that were just announced, and the rumored release in late 2026 of the first touch screen Mac.   We briefly discuss some new products we got and that will be arriving soon. And it's more of What's Pissing Off Brian Now and Watcha Straming, Watcha Reading.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at [email protected], join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow ,
