Published

on

The future of adult gaming has arrived, and it can be stocked with 50ml shooters of SoCo Sour!

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Southern Comfort – affectionately known as SoCo by fans worldwide – today unveils the SoConsole, the only gaming console cover in the world that can store and dispense shooters of the new SoCo Sour 50ml straight to adult gamers age 21+ IRL. This innovative device is part gaming accessory, part celebration (or commiseration) tool, offering fans an epic way to upgrade their gaming experience.

Engineered for those over the age of 21 who crave excitement and the latest in tech disruption, the SoConsole seamlessly integrates exclusively with the Xbox Series X. This innovative console shell elevates gameplay by allowing players to “order” a 50ml shooter from the SoConsole when they are in the throes of a heated battle and need it most. Whether dominating a couch co-op campaign or navigating the rollercoaster of competitive gaming solo, the SoConsole provides a fun-filled break when the stakes are high and the vibes are vibing.

“SoCo wants every experience to be fun and social, and that includes gaming. But listen, we’re a whiskey brand and not a gaming brand, so we focused not on redefining existing tech gamers’ love, but instead on infusing the gaming experience with more excitement,” said David Binder, Global Brand Director at Southern Comfort. “Avid players are craving a more interactive and social experience with friends, whether they’re celebrating a hard-fought victory or unwinding after an epic fail. And, what could be better than a SoCo Sour Up before a power up?”

How it works:

Attach the SoConsole to the Xbox Series X, plug it in and press the button to light up the device. The unit is green, black and yellow with a large Sour Up front that lights up when ON.Lift the top plate and find three slots where three SoCo Sour Shooters can be inserted (the shooters can be replenished between games, of course).After loading the shooters, put the top back on. To dispense a shot, press the button on the remote or the button on the unit to dispense.The remote feature works at a distance of up to 80 yards in optimal conditions. It’s perfect for keeping the fun going without needing to get up or sending a shot to friends while you’re in another room!

“Celebrating a big win, just unlocked a new score or hit an all-time gaming milestone? Just add SoCo. The gaming world will never be the same,” said Binder.

A very limited number of SoConsoles will be available to gamers 21+ at sazerachouse.com/southern-comfort-soconsole.com starting October 25 at 10 AM EST. Priced at $50 in celebration of Southern Comfort’s new SoCo Sour 50mL shooters, this one-of-a-kind innovation is available for purchase nationwide. Alcohol and Xbox Series X not included.

SoCo Sour 50ml pre-mixed shooters are now available for purchase in Baton Rouge, LA, Tucson, AZ, Austin, TX and Cleveland, OH with plans for nationwide rollout slated for later this year.

MitrEarth, a knowledge platform, identifies risk points, provides disaster warning, reduces losses

Published

By

BANGKOK, Thailand, Jan. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MitrEarth, an innovative online platform developed by Chulalongkorn University lecturers, simplifies geological knowledge and provides cutting-edge topographic data for each Thai province. It identifies risk points, delivers disaster warnings, and enhances community preparedness. The platform gained prominence when heavy rains and muddy water devastated Mae Sai District, Chiang Rai Province, raising urgent questions: Where will the water flow? Will it reach our homes? Should we prepare to relocate?

Created by Prof. Dr. Santi Phailobli from Chulalongkorn University’s Department of Geology, MitrEarth addresses these concerns. Since its launch in 2019, it has become a trusted source for disaster-related information, gaining over 200,000 followers. Its topographic maps, developed using GIS tools and satellite data, enable users to understand their local terrain and assess disaster risks. These maps have been utilized by local authorities and public pages for disaster warnings and response planning.

During recent floods in Chiang Rai, Lampang, and Sukhothai, MitrEarth’s maps provided actionable insights. Pages like Chiang Rai Conversation and Ramrome Weather cited MitrEarth to warn residents in vulnerable areas. As Dr. Santi emphasizes, “Disasters, whether rare or frequent, can cause immense damage. Understanding geology helps us communicate and prepare effectively, reducing impacts.”

Dr. Santi’s platform also serves as an educational tool, offering free access to maps and resources for both teaching and disaster management. He advocates integrating disaster education into school curriculums, ensuring everyone understands local risks such as floods, mudslides, and tsunamis. Notably, he highlights the severe 2001 Phetchabun mudslide, which claimed 136 lives, as a reminder of the need for vigilance.

MitrEarth’s GIS maps play a crucial role in disaster management, offering detailed, real-time data tailored to various scenarios. The platform also collaborates with Chulalongkorn University’s Digital War Room, integrating predictive tools for floods and landslides. While Dr. Santi acknowledges AI’s potential in disaster forecasting, he believes Thailand lacks sufficient data for reliable implementation.

Despite these challenges, Dr. Santi remains committed to expanding MitrEarth’s capabilities. He continues to refine data sets, improve map accessibility, and engage directly with communities to enhance disaster preparedness. For those seeking to understand and mitigate natural disasters, MitrEarth offers a vital resource.
