ISP Review

Want to know if your Internet Service Provider is ripping you off, lets just say the ISP now have to show you in their contract the Broadband facts and internet speeds that they have to provide you with their plan.
Along with early termination fee and any other fee's that's included in the plan. Everything has to be black and white from the company to the consumer. This will make it easier to see if you as a consumer are happy or not with the current service and then it's up to you to decide if you want to switch to another carrier or not.

Someone recently ran a New York City congestion pricing simulator and this is what they discovered in one weekday morning. If the pricing was in effect with just 22,252 cars this is what the city could net in just one hour. Let's just say almost a quarter of a million dollars is a lot of serious cash to consider.
Although the toll has been disabled for the moment, it's only a matter of time before it goes live and trafficers find an alternative way not to get charged.

Regardless this extra income would definitely be a game changer for the city and it's traffic problems.

Tesla CEO Pay Fight

Ever since Elon Musk pay package was thrown out by a judge in January the CEO has been doing all that he can do to get his pay reinstated and now after all his work shareholders are having second thoughts and they are justified since the company no longer is performing like it once was.

With the EV market looking for cheaper alternatives the CEO has been diverting important resources elsewhere. Maybe it's time for both parties to go their separate ways and for Must to start focusing on the company he believe's he wants to work for. 

Being a CEO requires staying focus and when you manage several companies the mindset is just not going to be there for all of them.

A user apparently purchased a Cybertruck when he had a house and then when the vehicle arrived he downsized to an apartment and now the vehicle is causing him a headache when it comes to parking.

Now anyone would consider with a situation like this all you need to do is get rid of the car but here is the kicker. The user cannot sell the car because of the Tesla agreement that they have to keep the car for at least a year.  

So my advice to the user is sit back put cones all around the car when you park and after a year just get rid of this hudge piece of junk.

Here is more information about the application and I would advise users to install it as soon as possible just in case.

Russia Starlink Access

It looks like Russian's are using the Starlink network dishes for a counterattack against Ukraine and regardless of the legality they are being used for illegal purposes.

I am unsure how Starlink plans to restrict access but one thing is for sure is that it is definitely keeping this terminals active.

Elon's Worst Predictions

As a forecaster pridicting the future is a tough job and if you are Elon Musk well let's just say he has an unrealistic reality when it comes to timing. If he would just choose his words carefully he would be a true believer. But that's not likely to happen any time soon and it's just another broken promise. 

Time is running out for Elon and if he does not get his act together, he is just going to be another voice in the wind.

TikTok Count Down Begins

It's going to be roller coaster ride for this social media company once the lawmakers force ByteDance to sell again. This is not the first time the company has been under scrutiny and this time around it will be interesting to see who is still interesting on buying the company.

Cellular Trail Camera

If you have a lot of property and always want to be notified when predators are in the area, here is a great camera for the critters to notify you via cell phone, when something is spotted. 

It's a slight upgraded from other products that are in the market but at least it will save you the trips of checking images every few days.

Google platform has simplified things for Google Forms that whatever type of information you are getting from users, you can have an email confirmation confirm their request. 

Here is another great resource to help you look professional for the information that was provided.

Google Forms UPI Payments

Now taking payments can easily be done using a UPI QR Code with Google Forms. This is opening the door to easier payment options for users when it's time for purchasing.

There is so many different options that this can open up and I just hope that it gets even easier going forward.

iOS AI

It looks like iOS 18 is going to have AI incorporated into the iPhone. Then here comes the kicker, even though Apple saids it's commited to privacy the phone might struggles to handle it's new features.

Hopefully Apple will play catch up and get it's act together in future versions to be able to compete with it's competitors. 

4/19/24

AI Pin Review

Easy word to say that it's not there yet but it could be better in the near future. It still has more to do before it gets there but right now it's not a replacement for anything yet. More for research and development.

4/18/24

Tesla Robotaxi Update

It looks like Tesla is struggling to catch up with it's Robotaxi and none of the agencies that regulates robotaxis has heard of it yet. So I would not be surprised that the project will be delayed when it comes out in August of this year. 

So with no deploymnet permit in process this might just be another Musk failure when time comes. But again it could be just a robotaxi and not a robotaxi service so only time will tell when everything comes to light.

But as of this date his failed promises are just adding up. 

4/17/24

Hacker Downs N Korea

Here is the hacker that took North Korea down and his story is pretty interesting along with what the government should adobt to stay ahead of these cyber attacks.

It's pretty bizaar that the government does not want to use the hacking powers more aggressively and to stop ransomware actors extortion fees. 

4/16/24

Win 11 Blocking Updates

If you have these specific apps installed on Windows 11, Microsoft will block updating your computer. I guess you should look at the list and decide if updating your computer is worth it.

It's unfortunate but as per Microsoft it's a security and performance concern and I guess you will have to follow the procedure or be excluded all together. 

4/15/24

Home Depot Breach

Not surprising with the Home Depot breach and hackers are going to go to extreme lenghts to make any access possible even if they cannot reach their ultimate goal.

In the long run it's third parties that are going to be affected and lets just say if these companies do not get their game together they will easily be removed from the Home Depot affliation. 

4/14/24

EV Charging Evolution

Here is the evolution of EV charging and how it varies in many different areas. The only way the EV adoption is going to be successful is if the United States adapts to what's going on worldwide and how they are using the resources around them to make the adoption possible.

It's going to be a rollcoaster ride and it will cost us millions if they do not start thinking out of the box how to make this transformation possible. 

4/13/24

Tesla Failing

It's no surprise that this EV company is failing terribly and it's partialy because nothing has really changed since 2013 besides the software.

Now they should be mastering other areas and be ahead of the game when compared to other EV companies and it looks like the company has been to comfortable.

Now like all technology, if you don't do anything new every few years, the chances that consumers going to continue buying your product is going to be slim.

So my advice to Telsa is this, wake up and get with the program. 

4/12/24

TikTok Ban Reason

Here is an article to clear the real reason why the government wants to ban TikTok all together. Let's just say there is 14.7 Billion reason for this.

Regardless on who benefited the most, this social media giant can easily control the U.S. ecommerce markets with just a flick of a switch.  

4/11/24

MAC Desktop Dead

It's no secret that the MAC desktop are dead as more users adapt to portable devices because of their convience. MAC and other manufactures are easily turning away from desktops and focusing on items that many consumers want which is portability. So long live the new MacBooks.

4/10/24

Vision Pro Spatial Personas

Vision Pro just enabled Spatial Persona and let's just say it's makes FaceTime calling more realistic that it already is inside a window.

It's more like having a 3D type conversation when you talk to the user. This is definitely going to take Vision Pro to a new level and get ready for more. 




4/9/24

Roku secrets

It looks like some users can open up Roku secret screens by doing a list remote functions on the device to unlock the controls.

The hidden screens will help you restore you device should it act up or do a factory reset, usb test, Cycle channel store server, cycle software firmware update and update the software.

If your Roku device is in need of a tune-up, doing this reset will definitely get your device to behave again. 

4/8/24

Gmail Wish List

Here are a wish list that we hope Gmail adapts so it can still be ahead of it's competitors. It's not just a great email service but the hope of making email better for everyone.

It's been a great twenty years and we hope it will not be the end. 

4/7/24

Office & Teams unbundled

It looks like Microsoft has unbundled it's software after complaints from European Union regulators. And Teams can be purchased as a standalone pricing depending on the package.

It's nothing new for the big giant but just meeting regulations so that it can be compliant and so that it's rivals cannot complain for now.

4/6/24

Apple Bad News

If you were axious to see a foldable iPhone the concept maybe dropped at anytime. It looks like Apple is not having luck making this possible because of the display problem.

I must say that I am very disappointed and cannot understand why they can't learn from their competitors and maybe look into other alternatives to make this possible.

There is always a way and I believe that it's just not their main focus on making this happen. 

4/5/24

Cellular Starlink

It looks like SpaceX is now trying to get clearance from the FCC to lower it's satellites orbits so that it can easily connect with cellular carriers.

The new network will make it easier for carriers to access Starlink satellite system and give consumers better means of communications. 

It's only going to get better from here on once the new connections go live.

Vision Pro Startup Guide

Before you go out and buy a Vision Pro, this is what you should be aware on the device. Now it's still unclear if Apple plans to increase it's storage or if everything will stay standard and force users to store everything on iCloud, but it  does make you wonder on the device limitations.

Hopefully this site will lead you to the best option to choose when it comes to storage on your Vision Pro device.

Xfer Tickets with iOS

Users can transfer tickets to others when using the Wallet app but here is where it gets funny, not all tickets are tranferable because of security issues. So if you intend to use this feature please make sure you are going to attend the event and do not add it to your wallet app until you definitely know that you will use it.

Fix AirPods Volume

Some users have reported that their AirPods are no longer louder when they reached maximum level. Now if you are experiencing this problem to try the tips below and then contact Apple support for assistance.

But it could be because of the aging hardware if you had them for quite sometime. 

3/31/24

Apple ClassAction Suit

It looks like some lawyers are going after Apple with their iCloud storage solutions. It's still in it's early stages but if you are a subsciber you can sign up and get updates on the current status of the lawsuit.

Apple is using it's iCloud services to make it difficult for users to replace or update their phones. 

3/30/24

TikTok Ban Coming

It's no surprise that many U.S. based social media companies want this application banned altogether because technically they are gaining subsribers rapidly and expanding into other marketing areas. 

TikTok is not just a social media company but a bigger department store similar to Amazon.com and there is no telling how fast and powerful they will become when more subscribers are added. 

So it's definitely a threat to U.S. markets and the government is going to do whatever possible to discourage and limit user access.

Apple AirTag software is already out and if you want to make sure your device is updated to the most current feature so that it has the new features and patched it's current bugs, then this is what you need to make sure your device is updated.

visionOS 1.1.1 Update

Vision Pro just got a new update and I wished it had more maintenance fixes, but sadly it's more of a security fix for the headset itself.

Let's hope that Apple get's it together and starts giving users the needed updates soon so that it will not discourage users from bringing back their devices. 

3/26/24

Chrome Protection

Chrome now is enabling real-time protection to safe guard users from going to dangerous sites that can get them viruses or malware.

This is the standard for other browsers as well and hopefully this will safe guard consumer protection.

Let's hope they continue this process for years to come moving forward.

Sci-Fi Reality Inventions

It's amazing to believe on how these out of the world technologies became reality with the mindset that anything is possible. 

So the next time you see a Sci-Fi movie remember this, if you can believe then you can make it possible.

Here is a flashback on items that came to reality.

AI Regulation

Everyone knew when AI came out it was only a matter of time before some technology regulation came into effect and the EU looks like is leading the way that other countries will eventually follow.

Since AI is currently in the wild west it would make sense to have some type of protection to citizens and how the tech giants complies to these rules.

It's only a matter of time before the EU start's slapping fines to these tech giants for rushing to create AI applications without filters. 

3/23/24

Wendy's airdrop

It looks like fast food Wendy's has begun using drones with DoorDash testing out the service to some lucky residents in Virginia. 

If all goes as planned it's definitely going to change food delivery service as we know what it is today. Not only will it revoluntionize the industry but open doors to instant deliveries.

I can't wait to start seeing this in my area. 

3/22/24

Neuralink Info

It's a futuristic idea with a high risk when you talk about implanting a chip to a human brain. Kind of reminds me of a hollywood movie called "The Lawnmover Man" with Pierce Brosnan. 

The sifi movie had similar futuristic ideas similar to what Neuralink is doing.

Now it's beyond me who would want to risk brain damage but Elon's goal is not to to save paralyzed volunteers but somehow incorporate it with AI and this is when it get's scary.

Now I already know how the movie ends and maybe you too should watch the movie too. 

3/21/24

HP Rental Info

HP recently started it's printer rentals and if you want them to manage the hardware and ink supplies it might be a service that you are looking for but here is the catch.

Their privacy is a nightmare and your personal data could be at risk. The more you read into the service the more concerns you should have about your privacy.

So I would caution users who subscribe to read their contract carefully and understand that whatever you are going to print is going to be in my terms public domain. 


3/20/24

FCC Quad Band

It looks like the FCC has increased broadband speed to 100Mbps. And hopefully it will only be a matter of time before the internet providers provide this access to all their users. 

Hopefully now with the new speed it will give users the oportunity to cut their cords and subscribe to all sorts of internet services. 

3/19/24

TikTok Ban Coming

It looks like we got again another TikTok ban and this time if Bytedance does not sell it's going to be very interesting to see how American's react to the new law.

It could definitely challenge everyone's constitution right on what the government can and cannot control. 


3/18/24

Copilot Update

Copilot is going to get a free GPT-4 Turbo upgrade and it's going to be free. With more info, more pages in a single prompt and improved performance. 

It's going to definitely be something to compete against and I just cannot wait to see with Copilot's competitors do next. 

3/17/24

Palm Size Drone

Let's just say that the military is getting advanced with this Black Hornet drone. It's going to innovate how teams are deployed into the battlefield by having another set of eye's map out areas of uncertainty. 

It's definitely a game changer and will change the future of warefare.

Video Doorbells Hacked

It looks like a list of vendors who sell video doorbells can easily be hacked. And those home owners who were trying to protect their homes now have another threat to worry about. 

I would suggest that users be very cautious when buying security devices for your home. 


3/15/24

HughesNet Loss

It's no secret that satellite provider HughesNet is losing subcribers with the popularity of Starlink. I guess customers are starting to piece together old technology with new technology and Starlink does make a difference when it comes to download speeds. Take a look at the comparision and see who is better.

Now if HughesNet does not catch up, it's definitely going to go under very quickly. 


3/14/24

Project Kuiper

It's looks like Starlink is not the only company trying to connect the entire world via broadband. Amazon is currently testing hundreds of prototype dishes to do the same.

Hopefully both companies will be smart enought to form an alliance to connect the world and then figure out how to compete against each other. You can accomplish more and bring down the costs with unity.

Apple Car Failure Update

The truth comes out from former Apple employee's who worked on the Apple Car and why the research and developement team failed to deliver.

Besides going to four team leaders and different ideas of what the car should be, the project looks like it was going in circles on what type of vehicle it should be.

It's no wonder Apple dumped the project all together. Maybe as time passes on, some of it's ideas can be incorporated into their products. Only time will tell. 

3/12/24

Lenovo Transparent Laptop

All that I can say is that it's out there and it's going to be a beauty to see these devices perform in the real world with AI. I feel like your it's not going to be that great security wise since everyone can see what you are doing but I am amazed to see what other manufactures are going to do now that this has come out.

I can see this company definitely going places with it's smart lock that can recognize your face. This high end technology has been out for sometime and now it's affordable to anyone who want to secure their homes.

Apple EV Cancellation

It looks like after going back and forth Apple is scapping for now it's autonomous electric car. It's no surprise that building something like this takes massive expertise to get to the end result. 

This is not for everyone and maybe it's just better to look into some other type of project that will benefit them better.

ChatGPT Tax Filing No No

I never even thought about this but with AI hitting all types of markets it's no surprise someone would want to try ChatGPT to do their taxes.

So before you decide to use ChatGPT for your personal finance, read this.

Next month the solar eclipse is happening on April 8, 2024 and so many user's can watch the breath taking moment others are also recommending purchasing the eclipse glasses.

No rice on iPhones

A while back some users mentioned that if your iPhone was to get wet your best bet was to use rice to save the phone. Now they are saying that this might not be a good idea.

Win 11 Update News

It looks like news is getting out that Windows 11 users who upgrade to version 24H2 coming in October will not be happy if they do the upgrade. It's said that it will not boot on old computers.

Have a lot of paid subscriptions and wish it can be managed better. Take a look at these cools sites that keep you informed when prices changes, due dates are coming up, bill negotiation and subscription cancellation.

CyberTruck Flaw

It looks like Telsa's new Cybertruck has a flaw and it's becoming very popular among most of it's current owners. It looks like the truck outer body is causing stains on the vehicle.

It's definitely not a good sign for the EV car manufacture and if the company does not resolve this quickly I am almost certain that consumers will look elsewhere when it's time to purchasing a new EV.

Let's see how the stains play out as more adopters get a hold of their new delivery vehicles.

Should I Shutdown

My answer will always be yes, unless you a savvy technician who always feels the need to always be connected and continue where they left off every hour of the day.

So if you are not on the computer on every hour of the day, then I would suggest you just shut it down to save power and prevent mishaps. It's pointless leaving the device on if you tend not to use it daily. 

2/26/24

Norway EV adoption

I believe that we have it all wrong when it comes to EV adoption and Norway is good proof of this. Ever since the early 90's this country has been doing almost everything possible to start EV adoption like offerring no taxes on zero emission vehicles, free parking, use of bus lanes and no tolls. 

Besides users buying more EVs, gas pumps and parking meters are being upgraded by chargers. It's the ultimate auto revolution occurring quickly in this country and if anyone want's to make a difference creating incentives is the key to adoption. 

I strongly believe Norway will achieve it's goal and be a major role model for other countries to follow. 

2/25/24

iOS iMessage Update

It looks like Apple is doing a massive security update to it's messaging software with advanced security. This is definitely going to secure all users messages moving forward and it's going to be harder to decrypt messages if they get into the wrong hands.

I wonder if the federal government is happy about this new update? 

For those that do not know, the feds just a few years ago were pleading with Apple to give them access to their software and Apple refused.

It was only a matter of time before the Flipper would be banned and I can see this powerful tool definitely causing security problems where ever you go, but this is still a remidial device compared to other devices that consumers should be concerned with. 

Instead Canada should enforced their car manufactures to safe guard consumer goods. 

2/21/24

X Fake Online Traffic

Recently X aka Twitter reported that it's users post and video's were rising, and after review from a third party it looks like it was fake. 

Information like this is no surprise from a company that's still sinking and user use is jumping ship. But it's nothing new in the world of Elon Musk.

I would guess now would be a good time to rehire the thousands of employee's that he laid off.

It looks like Microsoft if pulling the plug for support to Publisher in 2026 and plans on integrating the software to it's other office applications.
