The 3D printers we have all become familiar with over the last ten years use an additive process to create objects from digital maps. The X,Y,Z mechanisms contained within their erector set frames, lay rows of molten plastic one on top of the other to build up structures millimeter by millimeter. They are fantastic machines […]
The Unifi Flex Mini Managed Switch
Sometimes it is necessary to add a few network ports in a room, on a table, or even in an office cube. We know that our network admins hate those little five port mini switches that we all pick up at BestBuy and plug-in behind the printer, but the two jacks they put in our […]
Always Connected, Life with an LTE Smartwatch
I’ve had a cellular capable smartwatch since the Samsung Gear S was released way back in 2014. I’ve grown to take the technology for granted. Recently, many of my family members acquired LTE capable smartwatches and listening to their comments and seeing how the devices have altered their routines inspired me to write about the […]
Fix a Dell G3 3950 Laptop Hinge
The Dell G3 laptop that I bought my son for Christmas last year has been a good choice. It runs all of his games, graphics editing, and CAD software with ease. A few months ago we doubled the RAM to 32GB and added another 1TB SSD so that he can run VMs for his development […]
Couch Gaming Perfection with The Logitech G935 Headset
A short time ago I jumped into laptop gaming, in part so that I could easily enjoy playing in my living room. Right after I purchased my new ASUS laptop I found out that the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse I was planning on using wouldn’t cut it. Logitech’s Lightspeed gear saved the day. I had […]
Two Devices at the Same Time with Jabra 85t True Wireless Earbuds
I’ve been a fan of Bluetooth headphones since the beginning. When true wireless headphones first launched in 2015, I was lucky to get to try a pair of Bragi Dash at a tech show. They sounded horrible by today’s standards and if you turned your head too much you’d loose one. To have no cable […]
Couch Gaming Perfection with the Logitech Lightspeed G915TKL Keyboard and G502 Mouse
Recently, I purchased a gaming laptop with the intention of connecting it to my home theatre and answering the Call of Duty from my recliner. The laptop did exactly what I wanted, but it didn’t take long to learn I had overlooked something. I planned on running an extra Bluetooth keyboard and mouse that I […]
ASUS TUF DASH F15 an Underrated Nvidia 3070 RTX Gaming Laptop
I’ve have owned so many laptops that I’ve literally lost count. Some of those systems, like my Surface Book, are capable of playing games. However, none of them are, or were, dedicated game machines. I’ve helped my friends and family pick out their portable game machines and have spent plenty of hours playing on them. […]
Control an Xfinity X1 Cable Box and Other RF Devices with a Samsung Smart One Remote
Normally I would not write a post about something so mundane as configuring a remote for a TV, but this was difficult to figure out. There appear to be quite a few people searching and posting on the Xfinity and Samsung forums, Reddit, and other places, but I wasn’t able to find the actual answer […]
The Brydge 12.9 Pro+ iPad Keyboard
What do you get your wife who has everything for Valentine’s Day? Sure you could go with the standard flowers or candy and my wife would be more than happy with that choice. However, I’ve noticed that she’s been borrowing my Surface Go more and more lately. Mostly due to needing a keyboard and trackpad […]
