I got tired of Chipkashi, super-luxury Casio, and G-SHOCK, so I got a wonderfully cheap reimported CASIO Standard Watch. This year marks the 40th anniversary since its introduction. As a matter of course, G-SHOCK has attracted more attention than usual, and many commemorative models have been released, and this year’s Casio is all regarding G-SHOCK. The author, who is obnoxious and crooked, tries to ride the wave, but when many people make a fuss, it is customary for them to shift their attention to other products despite the pressure. It was a long time ago now, but it was the same when Chipkashi (cheap Casio: cheap plastic Casio wristwatches) took the world by storm. The appeal of Chipkashi and Swatch is their sleek design power that goes beyond the price range. My favorite recently is the CASIO Standard, an analog dial quartz watch with Chipkashi elements. However, one of the major reasons for the popularity of Swatch and the like is that it is possible to take on bold design challenges with low risk using inexpensive materials. The reason why I love some Chipkashi models and Swatches is because of their “gritty power.” The watch introduced this time is a “Day-Date model” equipped with the date and front date display function of “Casio Standard”, which is a reimported model of Casio that I found by chance on a domestic online shopping site. The product model number is “Casio MTP-1370L”. There are two types of dials, black and white, and I got the black dial, which is a more fearless type. The CASIO Standard MTP-1370L, which has a day-date function that is rare in Japan, an orthodox long and short hand and time index that combines visibility and design, a design that is unified in fearless black, and a domestic quartz movement, is an amazing cost performance. A classical and orthodox design, but a rare Day/Date model for Casio watches. These days, there are many simple and plain watches without a date display. On the other hand, some Showa-era wristwatches include legacy models that have two day and date display windows as standard. Among watches made overseas, Rolex’s ultra-celebrity DAY-DATE watch is the standard. The MTP-1370L that I got this time also follows that arrangement, and the day of the week is displayed in full spelling in the display window that has been expanded in a fan shape from 11 o’clock to 1 o’clock on the dial. And the date display appears at 6 o’clock, the opposite position of the day of the week, instead of the usual default position of 3 o’clock. Some domestic wristwatches have a display design with a high overview that expands the small window at the 3 o’clock position horizontally and displays the day and date intensively there, but it has an elegant design and a custom feel. If you want to express it, the 11 o’clock to 1 o’clock position, which is most noticeable in full spelling, is a good choice. An index with the same design as the long and short hands of medium and high mountain that is comparable to overseas companies that use Cyclops lenses. The DAY-DATE display at the 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock positions stands out. The date display on the DAY-DATE, which is a high-end Rolex model, is in a traditional position with a “cyclops lens” that aims to increase visibility by enlarging the characters. It is placed at the 3 o’clock position. On the other hand, the MTP-1370L is simply placed at 6 o’clock opposite the day at 12 o’clock, and the visibility is not bad with a normally well-balanced arrangement. The long and short hands have the same image as the time indexes on the dial, and adopt a roof-shaped multifaceted cut. Reflection of light can be expected from any angle, and it will be effective in improving the visibility of the current time. In the center of the ultra-short hand, an index is drawn with phosphorescent paint, which contributes to time visibility even in dark places. The crocodile-embossed black leather belt has a good color balance for both the silver main body and the buckle. These days, the word “cospa” is often used simply to mean “cheap” without mentioning the conditions for achieving it, so I don’t really like the word. However, the MTP-1370L adopts a domestically produced quartz mechanism with a day/date display and quartz accuracy, and if you are looking for a wristwatch with an elegant design that is comparable to the surroundings, the MTP-1370L is a rare cost performance. It’s the best watch ever. Anyone familiar with G-SHOCK and Chipkashi didn’t know it was a CASIO wristwatch. The author’s proud CASIO Standard wristwatch DAY-DATE model. It was the height of summer, which is not suitable for me. For that reason, I thought regarding changing the belt from the traditional buckle type to the buckle type before using it. Although not many, more than 90% of my favorite leather strap wristwatches use D-buckle clasps. It is a gem that is gentle on the arm and leather. Easy to install The author bought a general push-unlock butterfly D buckle following going around the net. I bought it at a low price of 950 yen on Amazon and it arrived the next day. Of course, the color is almost the same as the silver parts of MTP-1370L, and the matching is perfect. Installation is easy. Use the spring bar remover to remove the buckle and pin (tsuku bar) that came with the MTP-1370L from the beginning. Then use the removed spring bar to attach the butterfly D buckle. Next, insert the point of the sword (the sharp end of the belt) into the belt hole pin of the butterfly D buckle and fix it to create a loop of an appropriate size. After that, all you have to do is actually wear it on your arm several times and adjust it to the best length. Unlike the large single-opening D buckle, the double-opening butterfly type D buckle has high wearing performance on the arm and minimizes the load on the belt. There is little damage to the arm and the fit to the arm is excellent. Once the size adjustment is complete, the butterfly D buckle is always in the bangle state, and the probability of accidentally dropping the watch when putting it on or taking it off is almost zero. First, put your arm through the belt and then close the buckle, so there is no chance of accidentally dropping the watch. Also, as mentioned above, even if you repeatedly put on and take off the watch, the belt will be much less damaged than the style where the pin is passed through the hole with the buckle. Even if you do so far, it is 5510 yen, which is 4560 yen (MTP-1370L) + 950 yen (butterfly D buckle). Although I am still a fledgling watch hobbyist, it has become the strongest cost performance watch that deserves a special mention in my short history of watches. I’ll keep it as my favorite desktop watch for a while until autumn when the sweaty season is over. I’ve been wanting to start using it since autumn, when the sweat season is over. Currently, I put it on a cheap watch stand and look at it every day until autumn comes as a desk side watch.

No. 1002: I want to know in the heat, a safe and secure way to cool a hot smartphone-Keitai Watch
2023-07-30 15:00:00
These days, the heat wave continues. Not only humans but also smartphones are hot. The main body tends to get hot when used outdoors in the hot sun or in a car. Depending on the model, it may overheat to the point where it feels abnormal. What should I do in such a case? I will explain the good and bad things to do when the smartphone gets hot.
People are hot, but smartphones are also “hot”. How can I cool it effectively?
Smartphones get hot quickly in summer
When a smartphone overheats, the camera function stops, the operation suddenly becomes slow, or the operation stops, or in severe cases, it restarts repeatedly. Extremely hot environments can also reduce smartphone battery life.
I only used it for a few minutes under the hot sun, but it went from 20 degrees to over 40 degrees in an instant.
The reason why the camera function can not be used when the smartphone overheats is because the safety function inside the terminal is activated. The safety function limits functions such as the camera and charging, and lowers the brightness of the screen and the processing speed of the CPU so that the temperature inside the smartphone does not rise to a critical temperature for the circuits.
The camera unit of a smartphone tends to generate heat when shooting high-quality videos and high-resolution photos, as it puts a heavy load on the smartphone. This is especially true when shooting 4K videos. Also, when shooting outdoors in the summer in direct sunlight, the entire smartphone will naturally heat up.
In such a situation, when the smartphone detects a rise in temperature, it limits the camera function.
In addition, temporary performance deterioration of smartphones occurs when electronic components such as chipsets and batteries inside heat up and the temperature rises. As the temperature of these parts rises, the risk of deterioration and failure of the parts increases, and the performance also decreases. As a result, smartphones may slow down apps or stop charging in an attempt to cool down. As a result, the operation becomes heavy, and the usual application is jerky.
By the way, in the case of the iPhone, if the internal temperature of the terminal rises extremely, all functions other than emergency calls may not be available.
These functional restrictions and performance degradation are not permanent, and the smartphone is not broken. Cool your smartphone and give it a rest to revive it. However, there is a good way to cool it down and a bad way to do it.
How should I cool my smartphone?
Smartphone, cooling method that you should not do
First, let’s take a look at how to cool your smartphone that you shouldn’t do. If you do this, in the worst case, the inside of the terminal will become moldy or rusty. It may cause irreparable damage.
AQUOS R8 and AQUOS R8 pro.Has a unique mechanism to dissipate heat from the ring around the camera
One is to apply a cold pack or ice that has been frozen in the freezer. Cooling the device rapidly can cause condensation to form inside the device. Condensed water may cause an electrical short in the battery or internal circuits, resulting in malfunction.
Also, it is NG to put it in the refrigerator or freezer. As with ice packs and ice, there is a risk of condensation, and the cooling effect is even stronger, so there is a risk of freezing inside. Also, if you go out to a hot environment following this and repeat cooling once more, mold may appear. .
Soaking it in water is strictly prohibited. Devices with a waterproof function have a structure that prevents water from penetrating into the inside from the outside, but if it cools down quickly, the possibility of condensation inside is the same as a non-waterproof smartphone.
In any case, if you cool it “rapidly”, “condensation” will occur, and it will damage the circuits inside the terminal. In other words, the best way to cool the smartphone is to gradually cool it so that it does not leak.
Rapid cooling is bad for smartphones
・Condensation occurs inside if the product is cooled rapidly.
・Moisture can cause short circuits and rust
・Do not put it in the freezer or soak it in water.
So what is the best way to cool down?
First, it is effective to stop charging and turn off the power. The battery generates heat when charging, and the internal circuitry when the smartphone is in operation. By stopping these, you can suppress the heat generation inside the smartphone. However, if you turn off the power, you will not be able to use your smartphone. You might think that this is putting the cart before the horse.
One practical method is to remove the case and cover. Due to their structure, these items trap heat and make it difficult for it to escape. If you remove the case, the wind may hit the main unit, and the heat dissipation effect will be improved.
The case protects from scratches and shocks, but it also traps heat.You may want to consider taking it off in the middle of summer.
In addition, it is recommended to use a mini fan, fan cooler, etc. to expose the device to the wind. It can be said that it is correct not to cool rapidly, but to cool to the extent that dew condensation does not occur.
There is also a hand to cool with cooling goods. Heat radiation plates, cooling sheets, etc. To further increase the heat dissipation effect, it is also effective to use a heat dissipation/cooling sheet. Cooling plate fans that use “Peltier elements” are also available on the market as expensive ones, so it would be even more effective to use something like this.
The cooling plates, sheets, fans, etc. for smartphones mentioned at the end are sold in various ways by looking at mail order sites such as Amazon. If your camera stops working while you’re out in the summer, or if you’re playing an online game and it’s jerky, it might be a good idea to try using these cooling products.
Let’s cool down gently and slowly, such as applying wind
・It is effective to turn off the power supply and charging
・ It is safe to apply a fan or mini electric fan
・It is also ant to remove the case

Road Safety Barometer: Sharp Increase in Road Deaths in 2022 – Strategies to Improve Safety for Pedestrians and Cyclists
2023-07-28 07:31:03
Posted on Thursday, July 13, 2023 at 2:55 p.m.
According to the Road Safety Barometer established by the Vias Institute, the number of road deaths increased sharply last year in 2022, in Wallonia (+22%) and in Brussels, where it rose from 6 to 21 deaths. .

On the other hand, Flanders recorded a decline (-7%). On the scale of Belgium, more than one victim out of three was a pedestrian or a cyclist This provisional assessment should increase as it does not take into account the deaths occurring within 30 days.

“The years 2020 and 2021 were atypical due to the pandemic. The increases observed in 2022 follow an unprecedented drop, largely linked to health measures”, specifies Belinda Demattia, spokesperson for the Walloon Agency for Road Safety. Admittedly, there is a 22% increase in fatalities compared to 2021 but also a 22% decrease compared to 2019 (309 killed on the basis of the final figures).

“In fact, the first quarter of 2022 was very bad. There were fewer casualties in the second half of the year despite summer festivals and end-of-year celebrations. We have the impression that people let go at the start of 2022 following the Covid restrictions”, analyzes Belinda Demattia.

“Hainaut has the most killed (73), ahead of Liège (58), Namur (54), Luxembourg (30) and Walloon Brabant (14). Namur is the only Walloon province to have more deaths than in 2019 (49).
“In terms of types of users, the most marked increase concerns pedestrians (+52%) and cyclists, where we go from 6 to 18 killed,” notes the spokesperson for the AWSR. The death toll for cyclists remains lower than 2019 despite an increasing number of users. One in ten cyclist victims in Wallonia were riding an electric vehicle. On the other hand, the results are similar to 2019 for pedestrians. Strepy’s carnival drama weighs heavily in the balance.

Tragic Hotel Fire in Antalya, Turkey: Two Lives Lost and Emergency Response Criticized
2023-07-22 19:47:48
On the night of Friday to Saturday, a major fire broke out in a hotel located in Antalya, Turkey. Two people lost their lives and twelve others were injured.
Kaylee and Quiten, two Belgians, were in this hotel at the time of the tragedy: “ It was chaos everywhere. One person even jumped from the building out of desperation “, they say in a testimony delivered to The last news.
According to them, there was no emergency exit inside the hotel: “We jumped from the balcony of the neighbors on the roof of a building opposite”, they explain. ” Someone who was with us had injured his foot. We then started shouting that there was an injured person with us and finally got help ».
Rescue not prepared
According to the two Belgian tourists, the emergency services were not prepared for such an incident either: When the firefighters finally arrived, they mightn’t maneuver their fire trucks through the back streets. It was truly a disaster ».
According to Turkish media, the fire was probably caused by a failure in the air conditioning. A statement shared by Kaylee and Quinten: “ We arrived very early on a Tuesday morning and went to reception the same day to say our air conditioning was leaking. We complained regarding it every day but nothing was ever done regarding it “, they added.
