The Elements of Gadgets and Gaming
Ouya, Ouya, Ouya, schika schikaaaaaa. The year was 2012, Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe” was topping the Billboard charts, preppers were eagerly awaiting the end of the world (that got delayed 8 years), and a little micro-console was causing a big splash in the video gaming landscape, only to end up as yet another…
Apple will be ditching Intel and transitioning the Mac to ARM based processors over the next two years. I’m actually surprised it hasn’t happened before now, but here we are. The Mac lads are now full steam ahead, making their fourth major architecture change since the dawn of the platform in 1984. The move makes…
On the Weekend throwback, we revisit some vintage, well aged (like fine milk) articles from the site’s history, to see how tech has evolved in the last 13 years. Today, we’re checking out our classic review of the iPhone 3G. A phone which was a pretty big deal back when it came out, and also…
Mobile gaming has been dying a long and slow death for a few years now. Which is certainly a provocative statement. After all, the market for smartphone games absolutely dwarfs that of conventional PCs and consoles. At least in terms of gross revenue year over year. If money’s all you care about, then the industry…
Detective Inspector Hector is the only halfway decent policeman in Clappers Wreak, the town that took the “Great” out of Great Britain. He’d love nothing more than to spend the afternoon with a good cuppa and the filthiest porn the internet has on order. Unfortunately, there’s a terrorist knocking about, who’s threatening to commit the…
I use a Surface Pro, which serves double duty as a tablet and laptop. I’ve owned iPads in the past though. While I’m generally not a fan of Apple’s current product lineup, the iPad Pro is certainly a great device. It was a really tough choice between the two. Windows was the better OS back…
A few weeks back, I wrote about how the iPhone SE 2 is not the mid-range killer the media are making it out to be. Which is certainly true from a features perspective. Aside from raw performance, you’re getting something that falls short of a lot of mid-range Android phones from five years ago. That…
You’ve probably seen reports in the news lately of people setting “5G” towers on fire. Something about this technology has gotten a lot of folks spooked, especially the fringe theorists among us. With far ranging claims from it spying on you, to cooking your brain, to spreading the CCPVirus. So what the heck is 5G…
So, it’s been a long time since we’ve talked about Apple products on here. With good reason too. They’ve kind of lost their lustre since Steve Jobs passed away, at least in my eyes. But low and behold, we have a new iPhone SE. A “cheap” iPhone for the unwashed masses to bathe in the…
We now know how much Google Stadia will cost, and what it will feature, ahead of its official E3 presentation. The service will initially release with a single Pro tier, which will cost $10 a month. This will give you access to games in up to 4K at 60fps, with HDR colour and 5.1 surround…
