As a curious individual, did you mean TV Closed Captioning or DVD Subtitles?

How is that even legal to sell that without CC…

I thought the proliferation of touchscreens and screen readers was enough to show that regular society doesn’t give a flying fuck about the needs of the disabled?
A braille terminal costs a cool couple thousand bucks, so what’s a poor blind person to do? Get stuck using a fucking smartphone and screen readers.
Like even the equivalent of an Amazon Kindle for blind people is $700. A Kindle isn’t cheap, but holy fuck, it’s not $700, it’s more like $150.

It’s obscene and makes me sad.

$700 is a bargain. My kid got a speech tablet which is just a small Samsung tablet with a speaker mounted on the back and they billed our insurance $3500 for it.

This could be the kind of device that could benefit from being open-sourced and 3D printed, combined with relatively accessible and low-voltage electronic parts out there.

I’ve watched blind people use iPhones just fine before when I participated in User Testing of some web software.
It’s amazing what the accessibility functionality on iOS does.
