Facebook Suicide Prevention

Facebook is stepping up suicide prevention this is a worthy cause. I talk a lot to tonight about assisted intelligence which most of these devices we have in the home and how they are being manipulated by the manufactures. Also for some reason, my Rhomba decided to vacuum the house tonight while I was doing the show it drove me

A.I. Might Not Be All Bad

Much as the steam engine ushered in the Industrial Revolution, A.I. and intelligent machines will bring unimaginable change to the latter part of the  21st Century. Visionaries suggest that A.I. is more Pandora's Box than Prometheus' stolen fire, with many jobs likely to be consigned to the history books and it's already clear that the transport industry is going to

One Size Fits All with Ohyo 2Bag

Back in 2016 I interviewed Guy Jeremiah from Ohyo at The Gadget Show, where he was demonstrating a flexible use bag. Designed by Felix Conran, the bag could be arranged into four different configurations; a tablet bag, messenger bag, a back-pack and a grocery bag. Returning to 2017, the team's back together with the Ohyo 2Bag, a re-imagining which focuses on daily

Azulle Byte 3 Mini PC Review – Windows 10 Pro – Review

This is the second mini PC I have reviewed from Azulle. The Azulle Byte 3 Mini PC running Windows 10 Pro is the absolute perfect media PC that will play 4k Video at 60 frames per second.

Smartomi U8 ERA Running Headphones Sport Wireless Earphones Review

The folks at Smartomi sent me their U8 ERA Running Headphones Sport Wireless Earphones to review.  This review is well overdue but I have for many years have a history of having wireless earphones fail on me. So when I told the folks at Smartomi that I was going to wear them to the gym for a month I think they

Q-Hub Type-C PD Hub – Power Trend – Review

Power Trend sent me their Q-Hub Type-C PD Hub to review. Over the past year, I have purchased no less than 4 hubs for both my Macbooks and for a Dell PC that have USB-C as their primary interface. I will be honest some of the hubs look really slick but I have broken no less than two of them

Kodak Photo Printer Mini Review

The team at Kodak sent over the Kodak Photo Printer Mini to review. I want to talk a little bit about the build quality of this printer. Frankly, as a geek, I was totally intrigued on how the all-in-one-cartridge worked. The print cartridge which holds 20-50 credit card sized prints is an engineering marvel at how they have been able

Kodak Printomatic Review

The folks at Kodak sent over the Kodak Printomatic Instant Print Camera for me to review. The instant this arrived my 21-year-old who is simply crazy about old school Polaroid cameras was hovering around me when I set this up. The camera prints to 2x3 Zink Paper and also saves pictures to a 32gb Micro-SD card. I shot both black

The holiday season in perspective [Infographic]

It's that time of year. While thoughts should turn to things we are thankful for, they seem to more often turn towards what we lust for or want for our loved ones. It's a bit petty, but it has been slowly ingrained in us over the years. Black Friday kicks everything off with near riots as those present fight for what they want – sometimes taking

Airline Tips

Some Airline Tips in case you run into trouble on the holiday travel. I have been getting my butt kicked on some very finicky Windows 10 Machines and their networks. I swear sometimes teh thought of going 100% mac is sitting there with me as I just do not see these issue with the Mac machines. You have heard me
