Here’s why your laptop keyboard stinks

Posted onAuthoradmin

About six years ago, some engineers at Razer got the idea to put a mechanical keyboard into a laptop. The goal was to bring the satisfying clickiness of classic desktop keyboards–and Razer’s gaming keyboards in particular–to the company’s sleek gaming notebooks. After years of working through a wide range of engineering challenges, the Razer Blade Pro launched in 2016, debuting what Razer called the “World’s First Ultra-Low-Profile Mechanical Keyboard” in a laptop. It should have been a triumph, both for PC gamers and for serious typists. Instead, it was a bust. A new version of the Blade Pro, which Razer announced last month, will abandon mechanical keys for a more traditional laptop keyboard. “Razer has received positive sentiment from consumers regarding the tactile feedback of the Razer Blade 15 keyboard,” the company said in a statement, “so we decided to deploy that technology in the Razer Blade Pro.” The sad demise of the Blade Pro’s mechanical keyboard is a prime example of why today’s laptop keyboards are, for the most part, not so great. The race to make laptops slimmer and smaller has put the squeeze on even the most well-established keyboard designs, let alone ambitious new ones like Razer’s mechanical keys. The most fertile ground now for laptop keyboard innovation is in making them even thinner without rendering them intolerable, rather than truly excellent. And as Apple has experienced with its Macbooks’ failure-prone “butterfly” keyboard mechanisms , those efforts can backfire. In other words, as laptops follow phones and tablets into the realm of ultrathin designs with edge-to-edge screens, they’re ruining one of the defining features that would lead you to use a laptop in the first place.

How to Prepare For Your Trip to Mexico

Posted onAuthoradmin

A trip to Mexico can be a once in a lifetime experience for some people, and just a regular holiday for others. But regardless if you’ve never been before or if this is your twentieth visit, if you’re planning a trip to Mexico then here are some things you can do to prepare for your trip beforehand. Learn some of the language If you’re a native English speaker, then you’ll probably be used to everyone being able to speak English all the time. And although you will find people within the tourist industry can speak English, if you want to visit more local restaurants or have a better experience I couldn’t recommend learning some Spanish more. Here are some ways you can learn a bit of Spanish before you go. First I would recommend downloading the app Duolingo. It’s fun, it’s interactive and it will teach you a lot of Spanish vocabulary very quickly. Secondly, I would recommend finding a good Spanish book to read to help you. You’ll need a book for your trip anyway, so why not one in Spanish. Lingo Press Books have a great selection of Spanish books for beginners to get you started. Finally I would recommend finding some Spanish speakers in your area to practise with. You’ll be amazed at how easy it is to find language partners. Remember Mexico is a big country with different climates It’s very easy to just think Mexico is hot so I’ll take my bikini. But Mexico is enormous, and with large countries comes different climates that you may not have taken into consideration. Some parts of Mexico can be humid and hot, while other have more arid conditions. And in some places, you’ll be surprised to find out that you can even be cold. Make sure you research the regions you’re going to visit carefully before you go and pack accordingly Read More …
