So, I own a 2018 Chevy Bolt–it’s my daily driver, in fact, and I’m quite fond of it. I want to get that out of the way right off the bat so you understand where my biases might come into play. I’m also a massive car nerd, and I’ve been obsessed with the things since I was old enough to …
Look, the obvious problem with the iPhone 7 is the missing headphone jack. The industry simply isn’t ready to ditch it as there isn’t a good replacement for it yet. But that’s not the only thing that ticks me off about the new iPhone. Here’s a list: No fast charging What appears to be a only modest boost in battery life …
Fair warning, this will most likely be a controversial post. While I’m generally in favor of a citizen’s right to privacy, and I support companies that actually go to bat for our civil liberties, I’ve gotta side with law enforcement on this one–well, sorta. Let me be absolutely clear, this isn’t a question of where my political loyalties lie, but …
So, I got a smart watch a few weeks ago after much debate with myself over what to buy, and whether or not I actually needed the thing to be “smart.” I ended up with a Pebble, and so far, it’s pretty freaking awesome.

See, Tom Wheeler, and his buddies created a proposal that would basically create a “fast lane” for services that are willing to pay extra fees to ISPs for the privilege. What the hell does that mean, you ask? Great question! Basically, …
Huzzah! Jessica Rosenworcel, a commissioner of the FCC is asking to delay the vote due to public outcry over Tom Wheeler’s new proposal. To recap, this new proposal would allow companies like AT&T and Comcast to charge extra money to companies like Netflix and Amazon just to get adequate bandwidth.

If you’re not entirely sure what net neutrality is, I’ll give you a few minutes to check out this article on Wikipedia (you only really need the definition). The FCC wants to let Internet Service Providers (ISPs) charge premiums to content providers like Google, Netflix, Apple, Hulu, and more. These premiums would consist of extra fees to ensure that the content from a …
