Cellphone HELL...
With all the phones, tablets, laptops and computers I go through, I should be used to upgrades/changes by now. Last week, I took delivery on the Samsung S24 Ultra with 1 terabyte of memory. It's their flagship model that boasts a 200 megapixel camera
How hard is it to change a SIM card...
I have an added feature with my phone carrier to notify me of potential spam calls and an enhanced blocking feature. For some reason my good friend John gets added to the blocked list. Several calls to tech support gets him removed and minutes later.
Cool Christmas gift...
Every year, I tell my family not to get me anything for Christmas. They all develop selective hearing loss and get me something. This year, I received a small and simple gift that I will often use. It's called GUARD YOURID.
What Will Smart Homes Look Like Soon?
A number of technological traits will drive smart-domestic generation well past what’s available on keep cabinets nowadays. innovations in synthetic intelligence, as an example, stand to upend almost the whole thing in our lives, inclusive of our hou
Bang it around a bit...
I grew up in the era of Black & White TV and times when something electronic wasn't working correctly, it would require banging the side of the console to magically get things working again. Solid state technology changed all that... or did it?
Carbon emissions is not the core of climate change
Carbon emissions may play a part in the environment but is not ultimately the heart of the issue. Heat emissions is the core here's why: The heat of a regular gasoline car is up to 1400 degrees Fahrenheit or 760 degrees Celsius Apply this heat e
First in Flight...
My recent trip to Dayton, Ohio has markings everywhere as reminders of the Wright brothers being the first to have a powered aircraft successfully take a man into flight. I got to see a reconstruction of their workshop, wind tunnel for airfoil testin

One of my requirements of buying a condo is it had to have a washer & dryer within the unit. I shopped some communities where they had one laundry room at the end of the hallway serving all the occupants of that floor. That could be 10 apartments to
Lightening Siren...
I'm a half mile from the clubhouse of a golf course. On top of the building is a small weather station with a siren to alert golfers of lightening strikes. It's pretty standard in South Florida where bad weather can jump up in minutes. I've read man

Moonquakes...
That's a topic I haven't discussed before. Consider the extreme hot and cold temperature range on the moon. -208F ( -133C) in darkness to 250F (121C) in direct sunlight. I'm not sure how they got the darkness reading as we haven't sent any lunar lan

BAAH-tree...
I had an Aunt & Uncle from Philadelphia who pronounced battery as BAAH-tree... To me, it was funny as the BAAH was strongly accented and dragged out a little. Kinda like the sound a sheep would make. That reminds me of the traveling salesman who c

Last night CS went offline, probably an hour or so. Trying to reach the site returned a page explaining Technical Difficulties with a Contact Link. I haven't seen any comments about it and curious if anyone used the link to fill out a trouble ticket
All the experts on carbon fiber are making videos now...
YouTube is filling up with videos now about how the OceanGate Titan submersible imploded. Fingers are pointing to the 5 inch thick hull 'spun' with carbon fiber claiming it was the culprit. They all say it was the materials used. The video below s
Computer Upgrade... at some point in time.
Upgrades come under a few headings. Do them or ignore them as it's not broke so I don't have to fix it. At some point in time I have to do an upgrade or two and the time is nearing. I bought a few refurbished computers over the years and they appe
The magic of Photoshop...
For the benefit of those who don't know, Photoshop is a brand name for one of the first digital editing software suites. It incorporates dozens of filtering controls that people use to create artistic effects and alter or retouch existing photos. Fa

An American firm (Biofire) has developed a programmable 9mm double stack pistol that can only be fired by the specific person authorized to use it. It uses fingerprint reading and other technology so only the user the gun is programed for can turn t
Projects I don't complete...
I have an old laptop that only gets used when I'm outside, usually on a jobsite and I need to review drawings that I don't have printed copies of. The battery would only work for a short time, so I replaced it. The hard drive was slow so a friend sug
A. I. Benefit or problem ?
WASHINGTON, D.C. – AI has the potential to both benefit and harm the U.S. in unknown and unimagined ways but Congress has hardly any experts on the rapidly developing technology, lawmakers told Fox News. "AI is going to help us in many ways. It c
Samsung DeX...
I bought a refurbished Samsung phone last year to replace one that was around 5 years old. The old phone had a worn battery that needed to be charged a few times a day if I used the GPS and made a few hours of calls. There is a factory authorized ser
'Watch' this again...
As followup to my 'Watch' this blog, about the number of people wearing watches that connect to their cellphones, I decided to buy a low-end 'fitness' watch just to check it's operation. I'm highly skeptical these devices could be accurate, at least
'Watch' this...
I estimate the percentage of iPhone users versus 'the other phone' users to be as high as 70/30 and many most of them have an apple watch to go along with their setup. The phone rings and they look at their wrist. Most of the time, you don't h
Batteries...
Modern life would be very difficult without the use of batteries. Over the years battery technology had changed greatly with more power and less weight. Consider how hearing aid technology fueled smaller devices, iPhone ear buds go for hours on a sin
Drone ON...
For years, I've been reading about Amazon making deliveries by drone. For the record, it's not perfected yet. Good idea or not, something on a large scale must get the approval of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) which is the same government
ISO files...
I don't play or copy CD's DVD's or Blueray discs and have avoided programs that allow you to save those forms of media to another system. I saw one available for free today on give away of the day dot com. One of my clients is in the business of tot

The MUSK phone...
There seems to be some politics going on with app stores Apple and Google and their relationship with Twitter. Maybe a threat or dare if those stores no longer support the Twitter app. Elon Musk dreams up manufacturing his own alternative phone if
Microsoft is spying on me...
New computer this week running Windows 10 Pro and updated Microsoft Edge started some things I didn't notice on my older computer it replaced. I'm online making a purchase and when I get to the cart to review, banners fly out to show the same items
If it's not broken... don't (try to) fix it.
I should heed my own advice about changing out old computer parts. Two computers failed last month and are being replaced. The good thing is the hard drives are intact and I'm able to save most of the data contained on them. Unfortunately, some li
This, that, and whatever...
I bought a new cell phone a couple of weeks ago. My old one was going out on me as far as the screen goes. The screen started fading and doing some weird stuff. My old phone was a LG Stylo 5. I got it last year when my other LG Stylo 5 phone went out
The CS wish list...
If I could have some CS wishes, my list wouldn't be too long. Well, maybe it would. The first request would be to be able to view profiles without them knowing and not giving up the ability of knowing who view me. Kinda like having your cake and eati
Waiting on an update and reboot...
My work computer is rebooting... It stays online 24/7 and I only reboot when necessary. The video refresh hasn't been right for a few weeks now and I went to the manufacturer of the video board to install new drivers. Almost done. We shall see.
Quad copters large enough to carry a pilot...
Different than my previous blog about a flying car, a quad copter is a large-scale drone with sufficient lift to carry a person and not be flown remotely. Toyota has a SkyDrive prototype and claim to be the first. That's not accurate as other compan
Smart Appliances...
This is worse than a disease... People are spending more on appliances than the kitchen that goes around them. $10,000 for a refrigerator? It can Wi-Fi to your phone, so if you want one with a camera to see what's inside without having to open the
