There were MANY shenanigans…

Geekom A5 Review!
This is a beast of a mini PC! Using a great little AMD chip, it’s sweet overkill for daily computing tasks. It’s exciting to see this performance in a computer this small, but the price tag is even nicer! Continue reading “Geekom A5 Mini PC Review: BIG POWER! Small Price! Better than a Mac Mini?”
HAPPY MONDAY!
Techtober is spinning up! iPhones still seem to be overheating after Apple’s patch. Netflix lands two more GREAT games, but price hikes are looming. The SEC is suing Elon Musk for refusing to testify in their investigation. Getty images looks to make AI more equitable, but is AI too expensive to share the wealth?
And now that we’ve made it through the weekend, how are we feeling about the Pixel 8 announcement?
Let’s get our tech week started right!

I’ve been pretty vocal on folding tablets. I’m conflicted on the segment, and I believe that (even with a few years in the market) we’re still looking at a public BETA test for this concept.
I was (and still am) a big fan of the Surface Duo, but folks seem to forget that I gave a “niche of a niche” verdict for the Duo 2. I prefer Dual Display, but there was a SMALL segment of consumers who I believed would be a good fit for that device.
There’s a specific philosophy that needs to be addressed comparing something like a Pixel Fold with a Duo. They both have a hinge that folds the device in half, but they represent VERY different solutions.
The Pixel Fold is a traditional tablet, offering a larger unbroken canvas to work with. The Duo is a multi-tasking monster, delivering a more direct path to using two apps at once.
Getting my bias out of the way, after three months, two flights, and a road trip, how has the Fold treated me?
Pretty well. There’s a lot of potential here. Continue reading “Google Pixel Fold Three Months Later: A Long Term Review, Android 14, and a Road Trip”
Google officially revealed new phones, a second gen watch, and a whole slew of chatter about AI!
Numerous outlets are pushing out the press releases, and listing all the new specs. I won’t bore you with all those numbers here. It’s a great time to share some reactions to the keynote from my notes, and my posts on social media during the event. We can speculate on the direction Google might be treading with this announcement.
You can catch the replay of the Made By Google event here:
