Looks great, no? Last year, a group of honest-to-god cool guys from MariCar company have begun to offer a somewhat atypical go-kart rides services. Why atypical? Because MariCar stylized its go-karts as vehicles from Mario Kart video game, and even offered drivers costumes of Mario characters. Sadly, Nitendo came to the conclusion that MariCar’s services infringe their copyrights and their lawyers took the humble go-karters to court. As sad as it is, it is hard to blame Nintendo – MariCart’s name and the way they stylized their services would be hard to mistake for ...

It performs a number of functions, mostly that of connecting with GSM network and holding important data such as contacts and text messages. A phone can function without the SIM card, but its lack only allows the user to call emergency numbers like 911. Over time, SIM card was changed into miniSIM, followed by micro and nanoSIM. The main difference between them was their size.Okay, now that we remember what SIM cards are, what about eSIM? it is basically just another step ...

While the device was not perfect, even back in the day, it did offer something that iPhone did not, namely an open, customizable experience – something that Apple was and still is vehemently against. T-Mobile G1 included a pre-installed Android Market, native apps for Gmail and Maps and option to download music via Amazon. If any of these apps did not work, though, you were out of luck, as Google ...

Zero Quit Kit is a set of items created by Ro that is supposed to help those addicted to nicotine to give up their addition. It contains bupropion, which is a medicine that quenches nicotine cravings, nicotine gum and, interestingly, an app that allows one to track their no-smoking progress as well as enables counseling with Ro physicians. Obtaining the kit does not come fast nor cheap, though; first you have to participate in a $15 online consultation, and then buy a kit per month for $129 each. Still cheaper than smoking, I ...
