Smart watches are not exactly new. In the 1980s they were sold as “watches-calculator”, for example. Kind of dull, right? The good news is that technological developments followed, and we currently have powerful pieces of wearable technology on our wrists. Currently, also known as smartwatch or cell phone watches, they serve as an integration between a regular watch and smartphone. […]
Read moreTempted to splash out on a new TV, even though the one you have if perfectly functional? You’re not alone. New TV models are released every year, each promising more features and a better viewing experience than both its predecessors and its competitors.

I installed a Slickwrap clear matte skin on my OnePlus 7 Pro to reduce slipperiness, but after only two weeks it’s already messed up to the point where I need to remove it. Really ought to be more durable.

Annoying that I’ll probably have to write off such a new tire, for what isn’t that large of a hole, but it’s hard to argue with the massive convenience of tubeless even though it’s an all-the-eggs-in-one-basket solution.

Most of Illinois, and Iowa, is flat and covered with corn. But, there are scenic stretches of rolling roads along the Mississippi River, which is apparently perfect for cycling. I’m taking the TORMV organizers at there word there, for the cycling bit anyway, I have driven it in the past so I’m confident about the scenic part. I will be […]
Read moreNetflix’s authorization model, generously applied here, is rubbish. Frankly, there’s no other way to say that. Content levels are applied to profiles, which are freely selectable on EVERY device. Yes, I can set a GLOBAL parental control PIN for the account, but that’s a broken way to manage access.
