Re: [blind-gamers] Anyone on the group getting the Bop it Button?

2022-12-09 Thread Shaun Everiss

Hmmm doesn't interest me.

I have a starwars boppit which while cool if I had a choice to get it 
again I wouldn't as its 1 level really with sfx.


I have the standard but not the minni, and the xt which is good for what 
it is and I have loads of fun with it.


However over those 2 I don't know.

There was a touch boppit which looked cool but was heavily colour based.

The xt and regular were like that but at least you could get used to them.

The simon I'd like to get back into but the modern simon well it just 
aint and I really haven't bothered.


Pluss with the fact there are emulators for just about everything I am 
uncertain if I would get another one or even if when push comes to shove 
if I'd take them all with me.


The xt probably has the most play value along with regular but thats 
about it.

Re: [blind-gamers] Brail UNO cards

2022-12-09 Thread Shaun Everiss

Well your local blindness whatever equipment service should have them.

I know these exist here in new zealand or can exist.

To be honest though while yes I have a shit tunn of board games here its 
not like I have a hell a lot of time to play them.


Ok correction I obviously do but unless you force yourself offline you 
don't.


There will be 3 holidays I will be going on next year.

A 6 week one where I absolutely need to take my laptop, the art decco 
fest which for obvious reasons I won't due to time, and another 3 day 
one where I don't actually know.


I really think with the way things are going that we really need a 
digital detox from time to time where we can just shut it all down and 
not care, maybe just a radio if we must and then just forget it.


I used to go on holiday to a small batch in ahipara and a small hut in 
waiheke where there aint any signal so I didn't bring anything and just 
let myself float.


Litterally really good as I had no choice.

The only other time I did this was in bali which I did twice where 
safety wize you shouldn't unless you need to do it.


To be honest if you need to take your computer then its 10-20 minutes 
security check so I try not.


But yeah that.

Its hard not to go manual, get bored, and just try to relax and not care 
what is going on.
