They say habits are hard to keep, and I agree. That’s why I’m proud of myself for journaling for almost 10 years now, starting in 2016. I still remember being at the zoo in New York and discovering the new Day One digital journal app. I thought to myself that it would be much easier …

Introducing Transmission Plus: Enhanced macOS Torrent Client

WhatsApp Dark Mode is amazing on Android!
WhatsApp Android dark mode looks sick on my Galaxy S9. Way better than on my iPhone 11. I always prefer the dark gray over true black. Had to download the apk from the official website as I still did not get the update. Another benefit to Android I guess. Not to mention you can’t turn …

Microsoft is working on a new VR Headset for Xbox One
VRFocus confirmed that Microsoft is working on a new Virtual Reality Headset for the Xbox One. Not surprising since this is a direct response to Sony’s Project Morpheus and Oculus Rift. What I don’t understand is; Why are Sony and Microsoft spending time and money on gimmicks? There will be a time for virtual reality and the …
