What happens when an infected person sneezes in a room? Perhaps this is clearer to you. As you can see from the video of this 3D simulation, the virus particles propagate very quickly, around those who have sneezed or who have had a cough. The same person can be, perhaps even asymptomatic. A whole series of activities therefore makes no […]

Premise Given that the sanctuaries of San Michele are beautiful and stupendous and I would like to see them all in my life sooner or later and that I have nothing against those who are faithful to San Michele, I asked myself: Are there really 7 shrines in a straight line?

Is this route really possible? In recent days, at a quiz on RAI 1, they asserted that a sea route from Pakistan to the Kamchatka peninsula in Russia was possible, right by right without running into any obstacle.

My best friend Luca from Bologna had bought Netatmo for three years and therefore I knew in detail how Netatmo worked and its benefits. Why spend so much on a thermostat?

What is that? Simple … it’s a textile ladder, with aluminum pegs, which is used to be hoisted, with the mainsail halyard to go up into the masthead. Very interesting the system that as shown in the video is sold by Osculati. Presented in Paris and Berlin successfully. How does it work? Simple, connect the shackle on top of this […]
It’s been about 3 years since my Hackintosh, when it went on standby and exhumed, no longer produced any sound … conclusion?

Daniele Mingucci made the 47-foot aluminum sailing prototype named “Futura” with this strange U-shaped tree, […]
It looks like a nice system for faster, safer and more stable surfing. The only flaw is having these two wings, which look a bit like hanging wings, but in reality when they are closed on the bridge they don’t seem to be so hostile to the use of the deckhouse. They seem to increase sailing performance and above all, […]
