Advertising ruins everything
Life, James Hein, Published on 28/02/2024
» Remember this day because I have a prediction. Recently, for the first time, I had two ads appear when watching a Rumble video. Rumble is a YouTube alternative that until now had been ad free. The platform allows those banned by YouTube for political reasons to make their presentations, along with anyone else who wants to post videos. My prediction is that the current ads, currently 30 second ones you can skip after a few seconds that appear at the start of your video, will gradually become more prevalent and longer, without being able to skip, and eventually will become as annoying as Facebook.

Dawn of a gaming dream
Life, Kanin Srimaneekulroj, Published on 01/03/2017

Delving beneath the Surface
Life, Sithikorn Wongwudthianun, Published on 10/07/2013
» Before we begin, let's consider the official tagline of the product under review _ "This is a tablet in the form of a notebook". But Microsoft's Surface is not a full-featured notebook like we are used to, and if you want this to replace your traditional notebook or want to use it as your primary system, I would take the tagline's claim with some reservation.

Forever Running Alone
Life, Parisa Pichitmarn, Published on 30/01/2013
» Temple Run 2 is here! Developed and released by Imangi, fans of the Indiana Jones-esque game who have gotten tired of running around in the same old primeval, deserted temple can now run on another ancient structure... but on a mountain above the clouds. Visually speaking, it's more exciting as there are a whole lot of new things to surprise you at every corner, whether it is a waterfall, spinning spiky traps, a river, fire, stone ruins or string bridges to jump over or duck under.
