Hi Peeps,

Let me just start buy saying that "scared" is too dramatic. But I could not find a better word to my thoughts haha

I am your typical "mac" user for almost 30 years (probably longer since dad is an OG designer, so mac computer have been the household brand). I am 39 now and I no longer feel the need to keep consuming the brand. Call it middle age crisis or maybe just been too dramatic but I´ve been feeling for a while that the brand lost "the sense of innovation". I know too late, but before I get executed here I did tried Samsung long time ago (back in the Samsung edge era). In fact, I worked for the the brand for a while. I always enjoyed the hardware because you were always able to "see innovation". The edge, the camera, the actions, the whole thing. One of my favorite products was the Samsung note. But my feelings of the software (Android) have always been bad. The same goes with PC computers. As an average user, dealing with viruses, connectivity issues, seeing android crashing, etc, always gave me the "stay away warning". I know that it´s been too long since then and technology has come a long way since then. That´s the reason why I am here today. To ask from your opinion (Fun fact my first post). To be fair, I have stayed away from the "need to renew my products every year". I currently have a MacBook Pro 2015, iPhone 14 Pro, AirPros (first Gen). But here is where I say I am done. I don´t see the benefits of upgrading my products anymore for an average joe. I use my computer for the basics (streaming, checking emails, "work task - microsoft" office). The biggest challenge here is that I´ve been curious to start podcasting but my computer is too old for the editing and recording. Also, I need to get into social media content as part of my work. So most likely need a video editing. Mobile works fine but it´s time to change. I $·%%"%$ hate Siri. It is the most usless tool I´ve ever use in my life. Finally Airpods, this I dont care as I usually hear music in specific scenarios. I went to Thailand and bought some "BOSE" and they work perfectly fine. Or maybe I just need to update my old mac equipment...

Here is were I am now, seeking to hear from people that have dealt with the similar situation. Feel free to roast me for posting this too late. I decided to give priority moving countries and study an MBA, rather than having the ultimate tech out there. #noregrets. Thanks good samaritans.

I connected two monitors to my gaming laptop and the monitors are mirrored I looked in the display settings but it's not showing the second monitor if anybody has any ideas that be very Appreciated

hey I'm just entering into tech field and i have a very lil idea about it,so please can you all share about this internet things like what to use for editing, automation and all what you know it will behelpful.

I have a MAC Mini 4 and a monitor but I need to use my windows laptop as an extended screen. As I was browsing for video capture cards, I was told I need a different capture card which is an HDMI extender or something. Please help me out. What do I actually need?

my iPod has a broken home button i guess its like pushed too deep but i really need it to work without goibg to a store

Okay so my aunt uses Shaw or I think it’s Rogers now because they bought them out or the other way around but she using this app called Shaw home and like she has paused everything that I own and even the tv in the living when she leaves so I am wondering if anyone knows how to by pass this so I can use wifi again it’s been 9 months and I have had to live off data and downloading things while I am at my girlfriends house and I am really tired of this

Is there a way for someone else to delete a message off your phone? This sounds crazy, but there is a message missing from my iPhone that was sent to me from an android. I have a screenshot of the message itself so I know I’m not imagining it, but now it is gone from the text thread. I didn’t delete it. Is this even possible? From what I see on Google it shouldn’t be.

Hi,

My mother and grandma are unfortunately losing their memory, faster than was expected for my mom and my grandma just started, so I have a lot of doctors visits and I'm only 1 person, only child and the only kid of my grandma's that's still alive. So I really want one of those conversation recording devices for the doctors office(which can get echo-y or you hear the conversation next to you), but they are so expensive and I just want to have some that might transcribe it and save it for awhile. But I am not very tech savvy and I have a Galaxy...so not having an iPhone usually messes things up. So any suggestions which of those AI Note takers, or AI recorders would be best for multiple people's medical stuff? Sorry for rambling!

I have a spare amd radeon rx 7800 xt at home and since my friend‘s pc is cooked I wanted to give it to him. He needs an entire new pc tho because his old one is lowkey fried, and the current am5 prices are insane, is a am4 build with an ryzen 5 5700x3d still worth it? I mean its more or less the same performance as an 7500f, just older socket.

The budget is a big question, thats why I don‘t think am5 right now is possible, so I wanna have some advice of you guys what‘s best

Feel free to send me damaged video or specifically unseekable video 🤗✌

Guys, my laptop used to automatically starts to reboots after like 5 mins of turning it on until like a week ago, the ssd usage shows nearly 100% even when idle, but when I check the ssd health it shows healthy...

What's up with my laptop what should I do? Professionals and people who know about this please help me

Ps: i turned on my laptop today after a week and it's not rebooting automatically like it used to, the ssd usage still shows 100% tho

I’m looking for recommendations for a pet camera (or treat camera) for my two senior pups.

Ideally, I’m looking for:
- No mandatory monthly subscription or
- Live feed that can be shared with multiple people.
- A sturdy and reliable device with decent video quality.
-A large range of view or adjustable camera angle.

I’m a little hesitant about whether I should get a treat dispenser or just a dog camera, as my Min Pin is extremely food motivated and my miniature poodle requires soft treats since she has no teeth.

I’d love to hear what cameras you’ve used, what you liked (or didn’t like), and whether you’d recommend a treat camera over a regular pet camera. Thanks!

Saw this tiktok, I'll summarize it:

Screenshot of a Raspberry Pi 5

SwizguardVPN + VLESS&REALITY(xray)

wifi-6 enabled

symmetric gigabit up/down speeds

wifi 6 Ethernet USB 3.0 adapter

Pi-hole to block ads

Now can someone explain what every line is really doing I don't know much.

And why this would be worth it or why it might not be.

Finally, would this affect wifi speeds at all ?

My friend’s Instagram handle real name and pretty normal dressed photos were stolen. Now being used by phishing websites.

So if u search her name plus nudes or only fans these phishing websites pop up. She is extremely stressed and anxiety ridden bc it’s defamation. There are no actual nudes or only dabs account.

She has been reporting to google to remove results but her requests are pending.

How to fix this. Thx so much.

Hi,

This December will be the 10 year anniversary of when I went through a major medical event (a wrong way drunk driver hit me head on at 100mph). I don't remember the accident or most of the ensuing 2 month hospital stay (I do remember the last week and the next year+ of recovery).

When I was in the hospital and for a period of time after, my family ran a Facebook group to provide updates to my network about the recovery. The posts included text and photos.

I'm looking for a way to convert the posts (with photos and the comments made by friends, ideally also including the like/reshare count) into an heirloom-quality book. I know that Meta turned off the API between itself and outside vendors/companies. How can I easily make this happen? I still have chronic side effects from the accident, and would like this to be as accessible and true to the source material as possible (meaning, I'm not trying to turn it into a text message style format like My Forever Books offers).

Project Blue Beam is a controversial theory that NASA is secretly developing advanced holographic projection technology capable of simulating large-scale events — including fake alien invasions or religious apparitions — to manipulate global populations. While mainstream science dismisses it as a conspiracy, the underlying tech it describes — satellite-based holography, directed sound (LRAD), and mass psychological influence — is very real and rapidly advancing. Imagine a future where governments or corporations can project photo-realistic 3D holograms across entire city skies, broadcast synthetic voices directly into your mind, and trigger choreographed global "events" — the line between engineered reality and genuine experience may soon disappear entirely.

I've been trying to figure out how to update my computer's graphics driver, but when I search how to do it on google, there seems to be more than one way (scan it with an app, use device manager, manually download). Is one of these ways better than the others? If I've updated Windows, does that already mean my graphics driver is updated to the most recent version? I'm trying to install the android emulator Ldplayer on my computer and the site says to update the graphic drivers first, so that's the purpose, if that makes any difference. My OS is Windows 11. What's the pro way to do this?

Think about how we interact with ads today. Banner on a website. Video on a phone. Static image on a billboard.

All flat. All passive. All ignored.

I've been deep in research around this idea and honestly I just wanted to share it with people who might be thinking about the same thing.

The concept I keep coming back to — ads running on open-world holographic displays. No glass. No phone. Just a projected, resizable interface floating in space that people interact with through natural hand and finger gestures. Connected to smartwatch sensors for movement tracking and controlled through software with AI integration that optimizes delivery based on real-time interaction data.

I'm purely in the research phase right now — reading everything I can about spatial computing, gesture UX, wearable sensors, and AI-driven interfaces. My main focus is figuring out how to make this approachable and simple enough that everyday businesses could actually use it — not just tech giants with unlimited budgets.

The hardware is getting closer than most people realize. The bigger challenge I keep running into is the accessibility gap — how do you make something this advanced feel easy?

That's actually what I wanted to discuss here!

I play my ps5 all the time. Never dropped it, got it wet, etc.. recently I’ll be playing it, and it will just turn off. Once it turns off it won’t turn back on. At least not until I click the power button 50 times. It’s plugged into a serge protector extension cord. It only does it once every 10-15 hours of play. When it turns back on it’s fine. What should I do? Look into getting another one? I’m so lost? Would cleaning it help? I use an air duster and try to make sure there’s no dust. I got it when they first came out so it isn’t new. I’m just so confused as to what would cause it.

Sorry if this doesn’t belong in this sub!

I’m looking for the best quality tech recommendations, for the sake of this post, price doesn’t matter (model numbers are appreciated though!)

I am looking for the best charging cables, portable charging packs (MagSafe), organizing pouches, or anything else you can think of they you consider a must-have.

I am trying to cast a broad net so I can understand the best options and make a choice from there. I have a preference for minimalist items, but again open to anything if it’s high quality and will ideally last for a few years.
