Can I Get Me A Beer?

99 Bottles Of Beer On The Touch Screen: The Spread Of Self-Serve Taps As a blind person, I really hate this idea and hope it doesn’t find its way to Canada assuming it hasn’t already. Touchscreens are pretty much the bane of my existence. The damn things keep popping up in more and more places …

I Know You’re A Phone, But…

Hi there, Apple. Me again. I know you haven’t fixed that speakerphone thing for me yet, but I’m going to lay another longstanding gripe on you if that’s alright. Can we please have a feature that makes the phone treat the phone part of itself as a background app instead of always taking focus from …

Today In Things I’m About Sick Of

Just a couple of unrelated things I’m annoyed by right now. If I’m paying to subscribe to your website, why is it still absolutely caked in ads? Short of trying to force harmful software onto my system or hitting my very modern computer with so many things to load that it falls over and dies, …

Imagine being able to watch your favourite programs on a plane or train. It’s as handy as a camera. It only weighs 15 …

Let’s All Dance The Three-Step

Because apparently we have no use for the two-step around here. Waterloo Region’s top public health doctor says the area is on track to move into Step 3 of Ontario’s reopening framework along with the rest of the province next Friday. “That’s the plan,” medical officer of health Dr. Hsiu-Li Wang said during a weekly …

Why Is Everyone But WWE Good At Empty Arena Shows

I’ll never be caught up on wrestling again. That’s just the way it is, and I’m ok with that. It’s not a bad way to watch, actually. When there’s so many things you want to see, it’s nice not to feel the pressure to try to keep up. There’s just too much out there anymore …
