GOSPACE Supercharger — A Battery and Charger in One

GOSPACE Supercharger Wall Charger/Battery I’m going to do something I don’t think I’ve done before, and that’s review a piece of hardware that I don’t own.

CCATP #591 — Kaylee Dayo on Building JavaScript Games to Teach English in Japan

Kaylee is an English language teacher at primary schools in Japan. But she doesn’t just whip out a dusty old grammar book and drone on about when to use a gerund! She has mad programming and maker skills and she puts them to use in engaging the children. She has reproduced 1980s TV game shows […]

DTNS 3519 – Facebook Too Big for its Breaches

I’m in Love With My Vacuum

Dyson V7 Motorhead Vacuum Every once in a while I like to go completely off the rails and review something that barely (if at all) overlaps into the technology world. This is one of those times. For Christmas I asked Steve for the Dyson V7 Motorhead cordless vacuum cleaner … in the color fuchsia. I […]

Followup — Scanning for Cameras The story we covered last time about a hidden camera being found in an Irish AirBnB got a conversation going on the NosillaCast Slack.
