Mobile Phones for Elder People

December 1, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Mobile Phones for Elder People

I am not sure about other countries, but in Portugal there are some mobile phones (usually not smartphones) which are catalogued as for elder people. As you can see above, they have big buttons, with large numbers. But things stop there. If you try to use any of them, you will notice that the text […]

Genius – Season 1, Episode 1

November 29, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Genius – Season 1, Episode 1

I know I have too many open series to watch. Probably I will never end watching them all in my life. In any case, watched the first episode of Genius, and liked it. I imagine the story is lightly based on Albert Einstein life, but in any case it is interesting enough. It makes us […]

How Coursera is now Irrelevant for my Education

November 27, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on How Coursera is now Irrelevant for my Education

I was really excited when  I first heard of Coursera. I tried and completed a couple of courses, and learned a lot interesting subjects. Unfortunately, life continues, and we do not have the desired time for what we want, when we want. In fact, I enrolled in a couple more courses, that I did not […]

The Fate of the Furious (2017)

August 7, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on The Fate of the Furious (2017)

Well, undoubtedly, Fast and Furious is just another franchising, but the last (yeah, the eighth) is just great. Not as an action movie, or as a car movie. But for fun! Really. A gave a lot of bigger laughs with this movie than with some “comedies”. But this sequence shown above, with Jason Statham, is […]

Linux, 2017!

July 23, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Linux, 2017!

First of all, please do not read this post as a complain. Just as an analysis. I am a Linux user for decades. I remember using Linux in my first year of University, somewhere about 1996. I never stopped using Linux, in the server, but during some years, somewhere between 2002 and 2017 I was […]

Sim, Chef! (Season 1)

June 18, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Sim, Chef! (Season 1)

Yep, the first Portuguese series that I comment here, at the end of a season. This is a comedy, a little unrealistic on some points, but lots of fun. Also, it has some nice girls, and show nice food. And I always liked cooking shows, so, why not join them? The only sad thing is […]

Under the Dome (Season 3)

June 5, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Under the Dome (Season 3)

Right, it ended. Badly. Unfortunately, somebody wrote the season finale before the series got cancelled. Now, I feel like Sheldon Cooper, needing completion. No, this is not anything you do to your followers. Nop. Wrong. Well, regarding Under the Dome, the first season is the best. The second goes down. The third goes up again […]

Modern Family (Season 8)

May 19, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on Modern Family (Season 8)

Modern Family continues, and like The Big Bang Theory, the story is mostly the same from the beginning. Two gays with relationship problems, and self-doubt, a lazy mom and the three kids, and the old guy with the cute woman. From time to time an episode is better than the others, making a laugh, but […]

The Big Bang Theory (Season 10)

May 13, 2017May 13, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on The Big Bang Theory (Season 10)

Right. Tenth Season. And in 10 years Sheldon Cooper had more girls than me. Oh well. Back to the series. Things are mostly the same from last seasons. Some new details to shake a little the story (Raj parents not paying for his house, baby for Horward and Bernardette, ..) but the main history keeps […]

MonoGame: From Windows to Linux

March 26, 2017March 27, 2017ambsLeave a Comment on MonoGame: From Windows to Linux

The traditional way to have a C# MonoGame Project compile both under Linux and Windows is to use a tool named Protobuild. With the last version (3.6), the MonoGame OpenGL template for a cross platform game includes references to the libraries in the three main formats: DLL for windows, DyLib for mac, and so for […]
