I have a Panasonic G7 mirrorless camera. If a leave it turned on and put in my bag, it will try to focus constantly in the dark until the battery runs out. I got nothing.

A weird thing happened a few months back: a developer deleted an extension i was using from the Chrome Webstore because he broke up with his girlfriend. Yes, that was a reason. So that made me think i wanted an extension that will include some of the functionalities i use every day that will not […]

The new version of Gmail brought a few design choices and i can’t help wondering how high was the whole team that did them. One of the changes is “you can’t choose between buttons and labels anymore, gotta pick buttons or labels”. No logic whatsoever. None. But the weirdest is this one: My attention is […]

I’ve been using Panda Antivirus on one of my computers before i switched to Bitdefender. I even have a PRO subscription. A few days ago I reinstalled an old image of my OS and I noticed my CSGO slowing down. Installed MultiMon and noticed that, even if i turn it off, PAV keeps scanning the […]

Romania is sort of the land of the free and the brave. Lack of rules and enforcing makes it very easy for companies to create content. ProTV, for example, a TV station with 1 milion profit per year, cant find the resources to pay for content. They rather steal it from the internet, because there […]

Althought it’s a great tool, Sygic lacks basic functionalities and understanding on what a GPS app should be. First off, i am going to say that Sygic keeps […]

So, Sony has a new mirrorless out. It’s great, it has new features, looks great too. Not many people will buy it, as old mirrrorless are good enough. I have a NEX7 and an A5000, the last great ones without touchscreen, wifi and other crap nobody really uses. So, Sony, how about a decent f1.8? A […]

So UBER came to Bucharest last february and people cheered. Finally, we got rid of the dirty cabs! First UBER testers and bloggers were impressed: clean cars, polite drivers, same prices as the cabs (0.31 euros per kilometer). Some months went by and the Romanian management cut bonuses in half and then changed the way they gave those […]

So, two days after i wrote this, i get an email from a startup, about their new taxi app. Which is the same as all the other 3 or 4 taxi app. I used to use 2, one for my city and the other one for the others, but now the first one has national coverage, […]
