Episode Synopsis
Episode 140 – Tangents, Tools, and Talking Tech
In this episode of Technically Working, we start off with a correction from a listener—yep, they were right, you can power the Zoom P4 Next over USB if you just take the batteries out. That kicks off a cable rabbit hole, and from there… well, you know how it goes.
We talk about voiceover bugs, fighting with macOS audio, and SoundSource 6’s updated UI (spoiler: it’s slick). Michael goes off on my mail app losing focus. Damashe shares why he’s messing with Gemini more than ChatGPT right now. And yes, we get into local AI, accessibility tech, and a little Meta smart glasses shade.
Also in this one:
Cable troubleshooting the lazy way
Don’t reset VoiceOver unless you’re ready to be real annoyed
SoundSource 6 walkthrough + gripes
Aira vs Be My Eyes vs real-time AI help
Thoughts on local LLMs and why they matter
A $99 Touch ID button Apple should make but probably won’t
Home screen minimalism and iOS gestures you forgot existed
Drop us a line: [email protected]
And tell someone who doesn’t already listen—appreciate you.
