Tech Review: Google Meet

The new Google video conferencing app is here. It's called "Meet" and it is better than Hangouts. The interface is smooth and clean. It integrates with Gmail and Google Calendar seamlessly. The audio quality was good, but the video quality was fairly low. I went into the settings and found that it defaulted to 360p resolution and maxed out at 720p. That seems ridiculously…

That Which Passes, Passes Like Clouds

I lost my best dog on Saturday. She was thirteen years old. They said she had a big tumor and a spot on her lung. They said that nothing could be done. I miss her. She was a good dog. https://youtu.be/pbXAMFK_Rmg I found this poem called Spoils of the Dead by Robert Frost. I particularly like the last stanza: But I recognised death With…

Dude, Ya Wanna Crash the Mall

Why, in the world, dont things just work!? I feel like we have come to a point in time when computers should just be doing what we want them to do. We put people on the moon over 50 years ago! How can it be that default settings are so far from what we actually need. Im not exactly sure how it works but…

Killing Cars (1986)

Ralph (Jurgen Prochnow) is just an innocent engineer who wants to better the world with his car that runs on energy cells instead of gasoline. Car companies want his technology and oil companies want him dead in this German film from the mid-80s. For being an action thriller, it sure takes a long time to get going. The pumping 80s soundtrack was great when…
