My partner works for a major airline. They have tens of thousands of people that come into contact with travellers every day. Here are some aspects of flight attendants in particular that make them worthy of being examined for possible clues about the new coronavirus: 1. It is impossible for a flight attendant (FA) to… Continue reading How come flight attendants don’t get the virus?

Major scientific breakthrough on the virus from Greece
Did you know that contact with silver kills the coronavirus? In fact, according to most Greek priests, it kills all strands of the virus, even the new ones, even the ones we don’t know much about yet. Because the spoons used in communion are silver. 1+1=101 In case you haven’t visited a Greek church, Holy… Continue reading Major scientific breakthrough on the virus from Greece
I think Greta should cut her hair
No, I am not one of those that make fun of the girl. I admire her and fully support the effort. From a communications point of view, Greta Thunberg greatly helped both bring forward important issues and the idiots that oppose global warming initiatives with no valid scientific or logical counter-arguments. In fact, I have… Continue reading I think Greta should cut her hair
The end of Apple has begun (Forbes deleted this article)
Just take whatever the article says and add “oh, and somebody thought it would be a good idea to delete this article”. I wrote about how Google got revenge on Apple for their privacy initiative through the Pixel 3a some time ago. Here is what the original article said: “ The End of Apple Has… Continue reading The end of Apple has begun (Forbes deleted this article)
Thanos Dimadis: a media phenomenon
Twitter, Instagram and a variety of blogs yet I hadn’t ever noticed him. Apparently he was a journalist for AlphaTV or something. Which isn’t saying much. And then the Guardian expose stated that “multiple email communications from 2018 and 2019 detail the entwinement of two senior executives at Bayer’s US operations with a Greek journalist… Continue reading Thanos Dimadis: a media phenomenon
If you live in the UK, switch off Facebook for a few weeks
I have a Masters degree in Media, Communication and Society. Yet I have no exact data to give you about precisely how Facebook messes up our heads. But I know it is dangerous before a snap election. And you can’t win. So take a break. Facebook is evil. Those that try and bunch it with… Continue reading If you live in the UK, switch off Facebook for a few weeks
World Health solved (it is still noon)
Nope. Not yet. I will not buy a smartwatch. Not smart enough. Sure, if you like wearing a watch anyway, there are plenty choices that also measure things. It’s not that I am waiting for more sensors. Even with what is available today on a $30 smart band we should be getting more useful information.… Continue reading World Health solved (it is still noon)
World “adopt an iPhone user” day!
We all have blind spots. In technology, we get excited about them too very often. Opinionated. Most times it doesn’t matter. People buy what they want to buy and find ways to convince themselves it was a good choice. Especially if it costs more than a thousand bucks. My partner was an iPhone user. Not… Continue reading World “adopt an iPhone user” day!
Why do Pixel phones exist? (and how they just hurt Apple in revenge big time)
I never cease to amaze how wrong tech writers get some things. For years now I read about how Google has failed with Pixel phones, “never quite got it right”, “hasn’t got market share” and other such comparisons with companies that are nothing like Google. Pixel phones were never meant to sell a lot. That… Continue reading Why do Pixel phones exist? (and how they just hurt Apple in revenge big time)
The retards over at Apple
I am pretty sure that word gets all politically correct bells ringing so let me explain: it took Apple users almost a decade to figure out how useful wireless Bluetooth is. They are permanently retarded in their adoption of technology, always waiting for Apple to tell them what to do, like well schooled, but ignorant,… Continue reading The retards over at Apple
