Being informed is always in style

07 Sep

As the years pass, and I watch society grow increasingly dependent on technology, I start to realize that mine was probably one of the last generations to have experienced a healthy and happy childhood. From tablets to smartphones, today children are preoccupied with objects that rob them of their attention and prevent them from focusing on the real world. Instead of the simplistic toys of the past, today kids are playing with things that are electrical, computerized, and I must say, expensive. Quite sad, isn't it?

The hotness of summer always comes hand in hand with cool clothing rules. And by cool, I mean something that looks good and keeps you cool temperature wise. Apart from seeking refuge in the shade, along with wearing polos, button-up shirts and shorts, the right...

Many Australians are getting drones for the purpose of taking epic vacation photos and romantic wedding videos. But the most common scenario after they are back in their daily lives is they leave the drones in the garage to collect dust because they aren't creative enough to use them in the million possible ways they could. Imagine using your drone to monitor a huge farm of crops, or take pictures of a building's flaws, which you could water or fix as soon as you spot. Just how self-driving cars are becoming the future of the road, drones have the potential to be the future of a wide range of things. They could fundamentally change how goods and people are transported, create certain jobs and eliminate others, bring internet to people in remote areas, deliver medicine to people who need it and are kilometers away from hospitals, invent new sports, and the list goes on and on.

Fashion is an inevitable part of our everyday life. We buy a large number of clothes per year, thus spend a lot of money on creating our look and maintaining a certain style. It is such a powerful tool, as it is a way to say who you are without having to speak. However, the rise of fast fashion and its inhumane corporate practices have prompted the birth of a movement which fights against today's fashion industry and the unsustainability of its business model. In order words, now we have ethical clothing as an alternative to mass-produced clothing.

If you've ever looked at a vast, empty foyer and thought there's something missing, the answer could be an entry table. Simply said, without this one piece of furniture the entryway of a home is not able to live up to its purpose. The entry...

Cooking is more than just throwing the ingredients in a pot and stirring them. It is an art in which you need to know how to mix the right ingredients at the right temperature so that you have an out-of-this-world experience. But besides all that, cooking also requires some appropriate pieces of equipment. Focusing on the different kinds of pots and pans, many people disregard the huge importance of cooking knives for an easier and more pleasant cooking experience. The kitchen knife is certainly the most practical and necessary tool in every kitchen - no dish can be prepared without using the proper one for the purpose. There are plenty of options to choose from, but to be able to choose the right kitchen knife for the task at hand, you need to understand the different types available.

Trying to figure out what you need to bring with you for your camping trip? This question can be answered differently for each individual, however, there are some tools and outdoor camping gear that nobody can do without. The key to packing optimally for a camping trip is getting only the essential equipment that you'll need and then finding place for equipment that is just there for fun.

I just recently decided to buy my son an RC truck, so that we could spend some quality father-son time outside because I felt like he was missing out on all the potential outdoor fun from sitting on the computer or in front of the TV all the time. Suffice to say, we've been playing with it almost every day for the past few weeks, and I couldn't be happier I made that choice. If you want to get your kid to step into the scary outdoor world, getting him an RC toy may be the best way to convince him to. However, the RC toy market is actually larger than I thought, so I had to put in quite a bit of research before I made the buying decision. That being said, I want to share what I've learned so that others like myself can make a well-informed buying decision. Because, frankly, RC toys aren't the most affordable ones out there. First and foremost, pick something that's easy for beginners to drive. This might seem like a no-brainer, but it's more difficult than you think. Most RC trucks and reviews online are meant for experienced adults who want fast and more advanced trucks. So finding an RC truck that's kid-friendly requires special consideration. I got one that utilizes a brushed electric motor, which does it just right for us. We don't need gas or nitro, because we're not really planning on competing. Brushed electric motors are fast enough for us, and the model we got also has a "training" mode that slightly slows it down so we stay out of trouble. Moreover, we have the option to upgrade to a brushless motor if we decide we want to take it to the next level.
