In the 90s, 8-bit Super Mario Bros. and Battle City - “Mario” and “tanks” - caused wild delight. Only recently I launched them in the browser to feel nostalgic. Now gamers, of course, are “spoiled” by graphics and gameplay (myself included), but there is still something left in those games. Even if you didn’t catch the hits of those years, just compare the visuals of the founders with […]

The Gboard virtual keyboard app is rightfully considered one of the best in its category. However, the latest update seems to have issues that have broken the keyboard. On social media, users are reported to be complaining about keyboard glitches. In some cases, it was not even possible to unlock the devices because the system was throwing an error. Only those who have a fingerprint scanner or […]
Many people are put off by the word “shorthand”, and for good reason, since this means a complex system that not only needs to be studied for a long time, but also constantly applied in order for it to be of any use. I suggest you familiarize yourself with the simplest method of recording Russian spoken language using simplified icons, which of course will not increase the recording speed by 2-4 times […]
