Temperature can make or break the taste of wine. Wine that is too cold can taste muted and dull, but if it’s too warm it can taste flabby and too alcoholic, according to Wine Enthusiast magazine.

A wine cooler can help you stabilize your bottle’s temperature to its desired level. You can get the Magic Chef 12-Bottle Countertop Wine Cooler for $94.99 at Amazon right now, a savings of over 16%.

*Cheers*

As its name suggests, the Magic Chef wine cooler can hold up to 12 bottles of wine. Its temperature ranges from 54-66 degrees Fahrenheit. This wine cooler has an admirable capacity without being too intrusive, sitting at just 19 inches tall and 14.2 inches wide. Read more…

I am a bar-hopping, 20-something Uber customer — and this patent application that the ride-sharing company just applied for sounds mortifying.

Uber has applied for a patent for a system that can “predict a user state.” That is, a new artificial intelligence product from Uber could figure out if you’re drunk, and just how far gone you are from your “normal state.” CNN first spotted the application.

The system would use a series of smartphone interaction measurements to figure out a passenger’s “user state.” The activity it would look at is: “data input accuracy, data input speed, interface interaction behavior, device angle, or walking speed.” It could also possibly take into account data about location, time of day, and other factors.
