An unofficial blog that watches Google's attempts to move your operating system online since 2005. Furthermore, following McLuhan, Baudrillard interprets modernity as a process of explosion of commodification, mechanization, technology, and market relations, while postmodern society is the site of an implosion of all boundaries, regions, and distinctions between high and low culture, appearence and reality, and just about every other binary opposition maintained by traditional philosophy and social theory. Furthermore, while modernity could be characterized as a process of increasing differentiation of spheres of life (Max Weber as interpreted by Habermas), postmodernity could be interpreted as a process of de-differentiation and attendent implosion.
Prepare to run through an intense cycle of emotions in this comedy about a cop (Tom Hanks) who has to work with a new partner: a drooling Mastiff. Turner & Hooch is one of the greatest dog movies of all time, and that's saying a lot. The dog, Hooch, witnesses a murder and subsequently helps his new owner to catch them, while Turner strikes up a relationship with a veterinarian played by Mare Winningham. The adventures of Turner and Hooch are ideal for anyone who can handle a bit of violence along the way.
The first episode of the narrative adventure game Life is Strange will be free to download across platforms from tomorrow. Publisher Square Enix says the change is indefinite. It's clearly a move to get more people interested in the episodic game, and if you get hooked on episode one, you'll be able to pick up the other four parts for $16.99 (the full season pass previously cost $19.99).
It may seem hypocritical after the last point, but taking short breaks away from your desk and work obligations throughout the day is a key strategy towards boosting your energy, keeping your mind sharp, and enhancing your workflow. Studies show that these mini breaks significantly improve focus, as constant stimulation on the same task may put your brain on autopilot, thus rendering you less effective and your output less productive. Time Out is a simple app for OS X that operates while you work and gently fades in for a friendly reminder to take a short break at whichever interval you choose. You can also set "micro-break" reminders that'll encourage you to take a few seconds of respite from harsh screen lights.
