I recently met one of my old buddies from my firefighter hey-days. (Yes, I was a fireman once as part of my national service, don’t ask.) We talked some and he found out I was working with computers (it’s hard to explain what software testing is all about in layman terms). And of course, I [...]
My thumbdrive has been plagued with this issue for centuries!
Each time I plug in my thumbdrive, I would have to click Continue Without Scanning, as I knew my drive is in (somewhat) perfect condition. Of course, being the lazy ass bum that I was, I decided enough is enough. As usual, Google to the rescue! [...]
Stardock, the people behind WindowBlinds and ObjectDock, has now given us another nice desktop enhancement software.
It’s called Fences.
Fences allows you to group your desktop shortcuts into one particular area. As you can see from the demo video above, it not only allows you to group your shortcuts, but it keeps all your shortcuts in that [...]
We all love free stuff don’t we? Even more so if it’s a quality product.
Coming from the glorious folks at lifehacker, Acronis is giving away free Acronis True Image 10 Personal Edition.
I very much prefer Acronis than Norton Ghost to do my backup. Amazingly, Acronis 10 is able to detect SCSI harddrives in RAID in [...]
I find your lack of faith in 32-bit systems disturbing.
I’m no expert in it either by the way. But I found a nice post on this common problem plaguing non-techies and the geeky.
Since the plummeting of prices of DDR2 RAM (last I checked, it’s $15 for a 1GB stick, $25 for 2GB), a lot of [...]
I had recently purchased a Corsair Flash Voyager 8GB from newegg.com. A friend of mine was recently transferred back from the US, so I took advantage of Black Friday.
I had knew about portable apps for a long time now, but didn’t really go into it much. I didn’t have a USB thumb drive before, so [...]
There’s spyware, adware, malware, etc. I would like to coin a new term: scareware.
I returned home the other day to my mother making some noise.
“The laptop got a lot of trojans and viruses! Just now it scanned and found 38 viruses!”
Of course, I immediately suspected that it was fake. But just to be sure, I [...]
I no longer get the stupid “Unknown Error: 0xE800002E” when I update my iPhone apps!
Previously, on iTunes, if I try to update any app with the newer version, I am unable to, unless I delete the app from my “Applications” tab in itunes, sync and remove app in iPhone, redownload the app from the store, [...]
The iPhone had its 2.2 update on Thursday (if I’m not wrong). As usual, I would let the suckers early adopters try it out first. Then I will read all their whines and complains on the web before deciding if I should jump the gun.
However, as soon as I saw the new features, I began [...]
