adminHello, welcome to this week’s edition of reloaded.
Yes I am the captain of the cool kids, the revolution that has never been televised. How is your weekend? We would like to thank you for the feedback and our reloaded letter of the week goes to Tanatsa from Zimre. Tanatsa said why not have competition on reloaded where teenagers can send their reloaded photos with swag and be published. Well guys, let’s get it rolling, but please only one unedited picture can qualify.
We are now in the FIFA World Cup season and too bad for some matches which are screened late and this then makes some teenagers to sleep late. Yes, soccer is the world’s beautiful game but why not let the adults enjoy for now as we focus more on our homework and enjoy sleep.
Congrats to US president Barack Obama’s daughter Malia who has just landed her first role on television alongside Halle Berry. Who wouldn’t want to star along Hollywood’s greatest stars? Some said it was obvious for her as she is from the “royal family”. Guys talent knows no boundary, if you got it, show it.
Back home our dages, I mean the girls in green – Girls High School is hosting a fundraising dinner at Cresta Jameson Hotel tonight. The purpose of the dinner is to raise funds for their school team who are travelling to Sweden/Italy next month.
Let’s rally our sisters, guys. Come in your numbers and don’t forget the swag nightwear. Alas boys the tuxedo and African bowties are a hit. My girl Breezy knows much on the ladies but one tip, don’t forget to polish your nails.
Now to urban reloaded here is our Yeah and Nay of the week:
Frame it older
Geez, when you turn 60, probably you can’t be bothered to tinker with whatever new gadgets children are playing with in those days. Chances are, you’ll be content yelling at kids to get off your lawn and reminding everyone of the good old days, back when Google Glass looked idiotic, people still dreamed of self-lacing shoes, and we paid a lot of money for Internet service that can’t even handle 4K streaming.
So you should totally understand why the Famatic, a wifi-connected digital picture frame for old people who can’t be bothered to mess with computers, came to be.
Famatic is a digital picture frame focused around one-way photo sharing. You can, basically, send videos and photos from your phone to the frame to automatically update what it displays, as well as sync it with your Instagram or Facebook accounts for sharing media from each account to the device. You can give multiple people access to each Famatic frame, too, so the whole family can get in on the photo-sharing action. Oh yeah, it comes with a simple feedback system that’s based around one-word comments and symbols, so grandpa doesn’t have to think too hard to let the granddaughter know her regular picture updates are appreciated.
Giant Robot Slippers with Cyborg Sounds
While Thinkgeek’s Mega-Stomp Panic enabled people to add sound effects to every step they took, it required clipping on a strange-looking effects box that didn’t seem very convenient when you’re being lazy around the house.
Fortunately, they just came out with these Giant Robot Slippers with Sound, which will play a whizzing robot-stomp sound effect every time one of your feet hits the ground.
You can now parade around the living room with nothing but a smartwatch (hey, you need to get your alerts) and these comfy-looking slippers, all while enjoying the fantasy of sounding like your feet are made from cyborg-grade mechanical limbs. Plus, the slippers positively look like robot feet, so it can’t help but look great when worn with your Star Wars Stormtrooper Bathrobe.
They are designed as one-size-fits-all footwear. The integrated sound box, which makes what Thinkgeek describes as a vrrrr-clank sound, is powered by four AA batteries.
Decoded
Our pick of the week is YGT programme on ZTV. Yeah the teens are running and ruling it well. Keep up the swag standards too. On DSTV, damn this month is on soccer too bad for those interested but don’t forget the Disney channels.
Till next week, I’m out.
