I use Quickbooks Online. I pay for somethings through their online payment services, and the rest I stick receipts in a folder to hand my book keeper. This is definitely overkill for expense recording alone, but A) I also use Quickbooks on

A lot of things Arduino has been putting out recently feels like it might be too little for too late or way to high of a price. What bothers me about this release is that they are re-using the Uno name for a product that doesn't feel a

Building windows client applications that need to talk to a containerized service. The service could run on a remote server, but for development it is convenient to run it on the same Windows laptop that I'm doing the Windows developm

I just bought a iStarUSA D-300 and I was disappointed that there were no easy mount points for 2.5" SSDs.

I noticed that someone with a bunch of O2 parts seems to have finally given up and started lower the prices. I've bought a new CD driver cover (they break notoriously easily) and a long coveted 300mhz CPU upgrade. I haven't gotte

If you have a complicated enough project, Davinci will happy eat all the hardware you can throw at it (well, up to 3-4 GPUs at least). Puget Systems of course wants to recommend you buy the most expensive thing they can convince you to buy

The local walmart has 3 55" TV options for under $300 that are 2160p displays, and even more 43" options that are under $200. This is not a premium feature in TVs anymore. You can argue that it is a premium content feature and Net

It is increasing hard to get away from smart, but since OLED and 4k launched together, I think there have always been flat options available. You used to be able to get away from the smart "features" by going with a commercial dis

The title made me think of the iPhone, which also nobody asked for. That said, I am not at all convinced about bendable TVs as being introduced right now.

Probably. LoRa has an urban range of "up to" 5 kilometers. There are lots of things that could interfere and reduce that, but unless your mailbox is ridiculously far away, or your house unusually radio hostile, it would probably w

Or, a variation, instead of building something someone wants, build something you think is valuable and excites you.

I was under the impression that the decision to prioritize industrial & commercial customers was a temporary one during the current shortages. At least, I certainly hope that is the case.
