    on sale.....

    Hi, I noticed this on sale at newegg, but I know little about these drives. It's a M.2, which is supposed to be fast, but I don't know how fast.

    VoLTE

I have spent several sessions, the last one lasting over 90 minutes with one of their agents, and we could not make our phones work. I don't know if the problem is our phones, or settings...

    Motorola G5 Plus issues

    we purchased Motorola g5 plus phones for myself, my wife and daughter. my daughter destroyed hers in about 2 years, which honestly is really saying something for Motorola's quality. because she is H A R D on electronics! anyway, my phone was having no issues until she "had to" use it to take...

    TO GROUND, OR NOT TO GROUND. THAT IS THE QUESTION.....

    ok. so i guess its time to buy a humidifier for winter time use. i remember as a kid my dad purchased one that fit right onto the furnace. initially we had to add water to it by hand all the time to keep it working the way it should. but after it running dry so many times that he got sick of...
