2025 Rerun Notes: In anticipation of this month's incoming C1E99: "Listener Picks - vol 3", we are rerunning both previous installments of the Listener Picks trilogy this month!  Today's rerun is the second installment, from December of 2021 And it is less of a sequel per se, and more of an omake (that is, more of an "outtakes" episode). While vol 1 was 40 tracks long and selected by 18 contributors, their total body of contributions was not 40, but instead, an absolutely insane 100!! Well, even in 2025, we'd never do an episode 100 tracks long! Such a mixtape could possibly hit 5hrs long, which is too long even for St. John! :-D  So, what I did instead in 2018 was take the 100 and narrow it down to 40, with the 60 track remainder kept in reserve, intended for a Channel F "F-isode" to immediately follow as a bonus and feature the remaining 60. This bonus was to feature Trey Johnson of the NintenDomain and W.A.R.T. Radio podcasts as co-host, and be in the original format of W.A.R.T. Radio as a "return the favor" tribute to Trey in return for W.A.R.T. changing formats to match the NNR format. It was also going to feature an interview with a composer, spearheaded by Trey. But schedules did not align, and so the F-isode never happened! Today's rerun, eventually released years later in 2021 as a numbered "official" Ch 1 episode is essentially what that F-isode would've been - only with no interview (scheduling conflicts). Trey would still go on to co-host with me, though. Lastly, as always: all the usual caveats about how much worse my production quality was back in 2021 than it is today, and not to judge the current state of NNR production quality by this rerun. If you are new, and this is your first exposure to NNR, and you enjoyed the content, but were put off by the production, either go back and listen to a recent episode, such as C1E98 or C1E96....or perhaps even better, keep your eyes peeled for C1E99, which is basically this all over again, but at 2025's far improved production quality standards! In fact, in this case, the situation is even worse! My side of the recording session with Trey was lost, and so we had to fallback on his side of the Zoom call for my voice, where I was using a super cheap wireless headset. So my voice quality sounds especially terrible. My apologies if any of that detracts from this otherwise excellent and joyous outing! And with that, please enjoy the very non-standard-formatted - Listener Picks - vol 2, thanks again to Trey for lending his voice and talents in joining me to make this one happen, and please keep an eye out for the trilogy's incoming 3rd (and final) installment! Cheers! -------------------------------------------------------------- Original Show Notes:   Today's Broadcast is C1E60, for Theme Thursday, December 23rd, 2021 - our final episode of our very non-standard two-year long “Season 4”. So it is fitting that we'd end such a wildly non-standard season - filled with primarily wildly non-standard content already - with such a dramatically non-standard Channel 1 episode. Today's episode abandons the customary Channel 1 “great big music block” mixtape format for a modified take on the original W.A.R.T. Radio format, featuring Trey Johnson of Nintendomain / W.A.R.T. Radio and St. John. Today's episode is also a “Lost Level”, as it was originally intended to be a Channel F bonus “F-isode” to supplement “C1E40 - Listener Picks - vol. 1” from December 2018, and was intended to release right after it, in a nearly identical presentation to what you receive today. As such, today's broadcast shall be “Listener Picks - vol. 2”. All music, other than the background music for the speaking portions was curated by listeners of the show, and are the roughly 60 remaining unused tracks from the pool of roughly 100 that were offered up for C1E40 in 2018, of which only 40 were used.    p.s. We apologize for the uncharacteristically poor audio quality on St. John's speaking voice. Details available upon request, but the short version is that John had technical difficulties on his end of the recording with "the good mic", but fortunately, we had a lower-quality backup recording on Trey's end over Zoom using St. John's built-in laptop mic. The sound quality is diminished, but the content is still preserved.     Note: All Speaking Portions originally produced in December 2021 by St. John     01: Intro     Timestamps: 00:00:00 - 00:05:18  Runtime: 05:18  Emceed by: Trey and St. John     02: Phillip Vaughn Music Block     Timestamps (Including Introduction): 00:05:18 -

Chuck Joiner, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Marty Jencius, David Ginsburg, Eric Bolden, Jeff Gamet, and Mark Fuccio then rave about the new Apple TV sci-fi series Pluribus and other standout shows, before turning to disturbing revelations that a significant share of Meta's ad revenue appears tied to scam advertising and questionable enforcement practices.  http://traffic.libsyn.com/maclevelten/MV25190.mp3 This edition of MacVoices is brought to you by the MacVoices Dispatch, our weekly newsletter that keeps you up-to-date on any and all MacVoices-related information.

It's been a while, but we've caught up to comaplain about how bad everything is – how refreshing! MacOs, Nightreign, Elden Ring movie, Floppy Disks, Original Negroni, Alex Garland, everything is trash!

The MacVoices Live! panel digs into Apple's new iPhone Pocket accessory, debating its price, purpose, and whether it's aimed at non-US markets. Chuck Joiner, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Marty Jencius, Eric Bolden, Jeff Gamet, and Mark Fuccio also examine reported shortages of HomePod mini units at major retailers, asking if it signals a refresh, new colors, or just supply quirks before the holidays, and speculate on what other Apple products might quietly get updated.  MacVoices is supported by the 2025 MacVoices Holiday Gift Guides. Tech and more you want to give and get. Find out what the panels recommend at MacVoices.com/HolidayGiftGuide.

In a surprise move, Snapchat open sources its cross-platform UI Valdi. Valdi lets devs write UI components in TypeScript then compiles them to native views on iOS, Android, and macOS, offers instant hot reload without recompiling, and integrates well into already existing native apps. GitHub Universe 2025 wrapped up just a few weeks ago, and it had a bunch of new AI agent updates to share. Think: a single source to manage agents across GitHub, Mobile, CLI, and VS Code, custom agents with tailored prompts and tools, new Copilot integrations and agentic code review, and Plan Mode. TanStack DB released v0.5 and Query-Driven Sync. With Query-Driven Sync, a component's query is the API call and DB handles the fetching, caching, and updating, and provides different sync modes for different use cases. Chapter Markers:0:47 - Snapchat open sources cross-platform tool Valdi7:08 - GitHub Universe updates15:45 - TanStack DB query-driven sync19:54 - GitHub eliminates toasts22:49 - Firefox has an updated mascot24:09 - Vibe coding named word of the year33:26 - What's making us happyNews:Paige - Snapchat open sources cross-platform UI ValdiJack - TanStack DB query-driven syncTJ - GitHub Universe recapLightning News:GitHub eliminates toasts from their designsFirefox has an updated mascotVibe coding named word of the yearWhat Makes Us Happy this Week:Paige - Holiday light displaysJack - Cursor ComposerTJ - Inflatable dragon yard decorationThanks as always to our sponsor, the Blue Collar Coder channel on YouTube.

Bienvenidos, queridos APPLEakers, a un episodio explosivo donde analizamos lo que nadie se anima a decir:Tim Cook está llegando a su final, y ya se empieza a ver cómo será la nueva Apple que viene después de él. Sí, Tío Fabián te lo cuenta con lujo de detalle y pruebas en mano. Basado en toda la información del transcript oficial del episodio.  En este capítulo repasamos las últimas decisiones estratégicas de Tim:— Los acuerdos con Tencent y WeChat.— El pacto silencioso con Taiwán para asegurar semiconductores.— El caos del Apple Car.— El estancamiento en la realidad extendida.— Y la señal más clara: 65 años, presión interna, recambio inevitable. Además, te adelanto cómo será la Apple post-Tim con la posible llegada de John Ternus, el nuevo candidato fuerte para liderar la empresa y recuperar la esencia perdida desde Jobs: visión, diseño, y rumbo claro. También analizamos los rumores del iPhone plegable, el iPhone “todo pantalla”, el nuevo ecosistema híbrido entre iOS y macOS, el posible MacBook ultra low-cost, y el plan real que podría cambiarlo todo en 2027 para el aniversario 20 del iPhone.

The latest In Touch With iOS with Dave is joined by Jill McKinley,Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, Marty Jencius, Guy Serle. Episode 395 discusses VisionOS 26.2, Apple's new immersive F-18 video, third-party VR content, iOS/macOS beta features, CarPlay tweaks, and frustrations with notifications. The team reviews five years of M-series chips, explores new satellite features, tests out the digital passport ID in Wallet, debates the bizarre iPhone Pocket, reacts to Tesla adopting CarPlay, and covers Apple TV's plans to stream MLS for free in 2026.

The group jokes about aliens, mental shielding, and Guy's emergency hat deployment skills before shifting into the week's Apple news. They begin with VisionOS 26.2 Beta, noting incremental improvements such as fixes for stylus pressure, stability updates, and lingering bugs in AirDrop visibility, SharePlay DRM playback, and subscription syncing. The panel agrees the update feels like a tightening pass while everyone waits for the next major feature drop. Apple's newest immersive video, "Flight Ready," filmed with Navy F-18s, sparks lively discussion. The group praises the cinematic quality—especially nighttime carrier deck landings and aerial shots—but several mention Apple's signature issue with immersive content: the feeling that "people are way too close to your face." The panel also highlights the increasing amount of third-party immersive Vision Pro content, including music videos, training simulations, and niche experiences created in tools like DaVinci Resolve, signaling that spatial content creation is slowly becoming more accessible. Eric shares his in-store test of the Vision Pro M5, where he focused on widgets, Safari multitasking, virtual displays, and system responsiveness. He intentionally pushed the device hard to see if it stutters—and it didn't. Dave walks through updates in iOS/iPadOS/watchOS/tvOS 26.2 betas, pointing out UI refinements such as expanded Liquid Glass styling, an improved Alarm interface, app sorting options in Game Library, and message-pinning in CarPlay. CarPlay itself becomes a heated topic—Dave explains how answering a call sometimes instantly hangs up afterward. Marty expresses frustration over automotive UI "reactions" in group chats while driving. The general consensus: CarPlay is great… except when it isn't. The group digs into macOS 26.2 (Tahoe) with mixed reactions. While some see improvements, Jeff notes memory issues and audio stack quirks still need addressing. 1Password's new behavior—unlocking automatically after system login—splits the panel. Some appreciate fewer prompts, while others insist on strict manual unlocking for security. A retrospective on five years of Apple's M-series chips follows. Marty mentions real-world benefits moving from M4 to M5, Jeff feels his M2 Pro is still strong, Dave says his M4 Pro Mac mini is now his main machine, and Guy jokes that old Intel Macs were basically "space heaters with keyboards."

OpenStreetMap is the Wikipedia of maps: a publicly-available database of spacial information that anyone can edit. We sit down with prolific OSM contributor Jackson Kruger to talk about the best ways to use the data, and how to get comfortable with contributing to the project. Links OpenStreetMap (keep in mind that the map on this website is more of a tech demo than anything) There are many clients listed on OSM Apps Catalog, which makes it easy to filter by platform and purpose. Below are some of Jackson and Parker's recommendations: Navigation clients OsmAnd: extremely full-featured, but the interface may be intimidating. Android and iOS. Organic Maps: a simpler interface, with features that most users will need; probably the closest comparison to Google Maps on this list. Android, iOS, and Linux. CoMaps: a recent community fork of Organic Maps. Android and iOS.

André Arko, CEO of Spinel Cooperative and longtime Bundler maintainer, joins Corey Quinn to introduce RV, a new Ruby tool that installs Ruby in one second instead of 10-40 minutes by using precompiled binaries. Inspired by Python's UV, RV aims to simplify Ruby dependency management without the complexity of older tools like RVM and rbenv. They talk about why Ruby isn't actually dead, Apple's problem with shipping a five-year-old end-of-life Ruby in macOS, and the challenges of writing dependency managers in the language they manage. André also shares how he transitioned from a struggling nonprofit model to a cooperative that charges companies for expertise, proving that open source maintainers can build sustainable businesses without relying on donations.Show Highlights:(03:50) Introducing RV(05:12) The RVM vs rbenv Wars and Why They All Break Bundler(09:00) Why Your Mac Still Shows Ruby 3.0.0 in Your Prompt(11:00) The Chef vs Puppet Philosophy Divide(16:30) Installing Ruby in One Second vs 40 Minutes(18:13) Apple's Ancient System Ruby Problem(22:20) RV's Incremental Approach (24:23) Is Ruby Dead? (28:44) Why RV Is Written in Rust, Not Ruby(31:10) The Bundler Problem(32:15) The Financial Reality(38:00) Spinel's Plans to Make Money(39:23) How to Stay In Contact with AndréLinks:André Arko: https://arko.netBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/indirect.ioSpinel Cooperative: https://spinel.coopSponsor: Duckbill: https://www.duckbillhq.com/

Bienvenidos al podcast donde hablamos de accesibilidad y productos de Apple con la sinceridad que te mereces y un toque de humor para hacerlo más ameno. Reflexionamos, exploramos y, sobre todo, nos divertimos mientras descubrimos cómo la tecnología puede ser más inclusiva y accesible para todos. ¡Únete a nosotros y déjate sorprender! En este episodio de La Manzanita Accesible venimos con la mesa llena: Jose se marcó una pedazo de demo del atajo Siri Dos, una Siri con esteroides que hace más que la original (y sin cobrar extra). Después, enseñó la función en vivo de Gemini, que por fin pudo usar gracias a cambiar de cuenta de Google… porque sí, Google siendo Google. También hablamos del nuevo MacBook Air 2020 que le han regalado al compañero Lucas, con sus primeras impresiones sobre macOS 26, donde confesó que hay cosas que le encantan… y otras que tiraría por la ventana. Y como siempre: opiniones, humor del nuestro y un buen puñado de risas. Un episodio variado, cargado de demos y sin anestesia.

Are smart glasses and AI screen readers the future of accessible tech? Steven Scott and Shaun Preece share real-world frustrations and wins with Windows, macOS, Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses, and the rise of AI-powered tools like Copilot and Be My Eyes.In this episode of Double Tap, Steven and Shaun dive into the day-to-day realities of living and working with modern assistive technology. Steven vents about painfully slow Windows performance using JAWS on a Lenovo laptop, while Shaun offers insights into indexing delays, driver issues, and quirky start menu behaviour. The conversation expands to comparing macOS and Windows accessibility, from VoiceOver struggles in macOS Tahoe to the unpredictability of Windows pop‑ups and AI Copilot integration. The hosts then debate the emerging wave of AI‑powered assistive tech. They discuss the Meta Ray‑Ban smart glasses versus specialist devices like the Ally Solo and upcoming Echo Vision, questioning whether subscription models for niche products can compete with mainstream consumer tech. Real experiences with AI tools—from reading expiry dates to drafting professional emails and even using Copilot in Notepad—highlight both the breakthroughs and the current limitations. The episode closes with a look ahead to Sight Village London, where they plan to test a portable, fully accessible content creation kit, combining iPads, Zoom PodTrak P4, and Apple's VoiceOver for video and audio recording.Relevant LinksBe My Eyes: https://www.bemyeyes.comAira: https://aira.ioSight Village London: https://www.sightandsound.co.uk/events Find Double Tap online: YouTube, Double Tap Website---Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedin Subscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheart About Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.
