Are you craving for a vacation but it's not gonna happen any time soon? But there's an old lifehack you've heard about: listen to the ocean in a seashell! Sorry to ruin it for you but it's a myth. The shape of the shell amplifies all the noises around you, and you hear them more distinctively. So it's definitely not the ocean you're listening to...

Why All Smartphones Now Look the Same
DIY phone cases, faster charging, saving broken cables – you’ve heard all the most common tips out there. But hidden gold? Roll-up smartphones of the future? And have you ever wondered why all phones look the same today? They are rectangular, they have bigger screens and fewer buttons.

Dealerships spend thousands of dollars a year on insurance policies, with the price tag for larger businesses reaching into the millions. So, case closed, right? The insurer covers the cost of repairs, and you go on your merry way? Well, not always.
