I won’t name names, but there are services that do not let a user change the email address. It’s a hilarious oversight in systems, as two entirely different people may have similar email addresses. I was once given an email address of that is ridiculous short initials with illegible numbers attached. Soon as the organization…
When was it ever a good time to build a PC? And I’m not talking about simple web browsing and office work level of hardwares — the ones the hobbyists are building are never the most common spec. For hobbyists, there is a news we often see almost every year, like a halloween scare, ‘check…
It’s nearing the end of the year, and before we start preparing Christmas gifts some of my friends and I started discussing how are we making rooms of new stuffs. Or to put it more bluntly, we were asking each other how we are getting rid of old electronics. Nintendo Switch 2 was released in…
In the beginning of current generation consoles, there were questions as to why Nintendo seems to be fighting a different kind of competition. Gamers generally buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo-branded games, and currently Nintendo Switch line of products (at the time of writing, Switch 2 has been on the market for half a year). It…
iRobot filed for Chapter 11. The news shouldn’t surprise anyone. Since the Amazon deal faltered, it seemed only a matter of time until some form of reorganization is needed. This bankruptcy may be that catalyst, a second chance. That’s likely the business side of iRobot’s saga. I believe the current downfall of iRobot has less…
It is without a doubt the easiest solution to improve the speed of any computer chipset is to simply bundle two in one. I’m not exactly suggesting that is the phenomenon we are seeing, though there could be an argument about Moore’s law and efficiency somewhere. This post is more or less a complaint on…
I am somewhat surprised not many reviewers or analysts mention the elephant in the room with the latest trends toward thinner smartphones: the USB-C port. It’s not just iPhone Air and thinner bar type smartphones that suffer from its own design choices. Foldable smartphones that are supposedly the future form factor are also severely impacted…
My Korean phone number is quite old. The number is as old as it could get, as South Korea began numbering 010 for all mobile numbers. Same goes with my American, still alive, number. I don’t think the American numbering scheme is easily accessible, but some websites do decline my number over it being an…
As a home baker, one of the most frequent accusations thrown at content creators I see — gadget reviewers, recipe authors, or just plainly writing about baking experiences — is their transparency: ties to the manufacturer, ties to the brands, ties to the producers, and so on. It boils down to a simple question —…
Recently I was asked what e-ink tablet I use for all my ebooks. Short answer: I don’t. I prefer to carry one device, and OLED on the smartphone has gotten better to the point where I can read comfortably outside. In fact, I think it has come to the point where e-ink displays now have…
MKBHD’s rather unpopular side gig, Panels app is shutting down on coming this December 31. The app has been receiving incendiary receptions to say the least; it charged $50 per year for wallpapers. I have no interest on making arguments for or against the app — I was obviously not in the target demographic. I…
Few months ago, I wrote a spiel on a new Dyson PencilVac vacuum cleaner. It didn’t merit to be called a full-scale review, as I wasn’t testing the product against any other vacuums in the market, and quite frankly my research was limited to what fits into my needs and routines. Regardless, at the time,…
Of all things Valve is pushing, I find Early Access program to be easily abused because it demerits the narrative element of a game. Any games that are heavily based on its narrative or storytelling have limited shelf life; the moment it is released it will slowly sip through any and all social medias. But…
The new onslaught of foldable iPhone rumors have been released: a. it will feature under-display camera for innards, b. it will feature Touch ID instead of Face ID, c. it will feature a larger battery, d. the foldable display will be crease-less, and finally e. it will be priced at $2,399. The prudence dictates we…
macOS 26.2 is expected to release a new Mac Cluster feature that runs on full Thunderbolt 5 bandwidth (80Gbps) compared to what is available now at 10Gbps. The coverages surrounding the end of Mac Pro line, which I happen to agree with, suspect Mac cluster update will be the final nail in the coffin for…
