Are you that guy who made that Braille thread a month ago? I used to be obsessed with the creation of braille books in first grade, about 36 years ago.

>digital braille
there are 3 possible culprits for this
>>
>>24773890
Audiobooks have already been invented, and obtaining a book printed in Braille is very expensive and difficult to find, if not impossible.
>>
>>24773890
How long did it take you to learn it?
You would have been better off spending that time learning a language that is truly useful instead of reading translations in Braille.
>>
>>24773890
Good for you, anon. Bless you.
>>
>>24773890
Sounds comfy
What’s the availability of books in that format?
>>
>>24773890
you better not LARPing because that sounds convincing

reading in braille sounds like it would be awfully slow and cumbersome
it would probably take seconds to reconstruct the average word vs. taking in several words with a single glance in regular reading
and trying to keep track of longer and more convoluted sentences would probably be hell - you would forget how it started before you can reach the end

You have no idea how often I have had to know the room number of a hotel room while the hotel was in the middle of a power outage. It frankly stopped making sense around the 10th or 20th time.

>>24773890
How would translations in braille work? Surely you'd risk losing some of the content.
>>
>>24774440
That's insane. Do you spend a lot of your time traveling to third world shitholes where blackouts are common, like California?

No I lied for comedic effect

A random thought:

People get tattoos, which are, in 99% of cases, revolting, obviously.

But what about a BRAILLE TATTOO? I wonder if anyone has ever had that? Would it even be possible?

Then in the dark (or if you were blind) you could stroke the other person to "read" it.

A woman could have "a little lower" in braille on her stomach for example. This might prove useful in certain situations.

i guess infinite if you drop $3k on this

Audiobooks aren't books though, it's spoonfeeding.

yes, but every one of them was put in by the person that its in, and the vast majority were designed by the person with it in
