I'm on an iPhone XS Max still, with full battery performance and stacks of free storage. Apart from the camera, this iPhone 'feels' quite up-to-date. This is surely a common story and so, predicting the typical upgrade cycle for well-made products s…

My brother, an experienced pilot of turbine powered helicopters who was trained in the airforce, once demonstrated to me, in a chopper on the ground, how little time there is to correct some problems, seconds in one case. Experience counts for so mu…

Regardless of the outdoor shaded air temperature, you do not want to experience a wet bulb temperature above about 32°C, as the body cannot then cool sufficiently to stay healthy. The kidneys are early victims - kidney disease develops quickly and i…
