@Davidc might be interested in this for some major stretching between farms. Pretty cool especially if you need to reach another building far away.

So my router has an option to name you devices by MAC address. So I thought I would go through and add names that way you know what devices are attached to your network. Well if you have ever tried to look up look a device on Google by MAC you may luck out and find a manufacture or chipset which...

Ran across this neat little piece of software that you can install on your Raspberry Pi. https://pi-hole.net/

Good riddance! They always made the crappiest laptops. Source

bought a pre-made PC from ibuypower :o - paying installments on it https://www.ibuypower.com/Store/Intel-Z270-Snow-i7-Daily-Special it had some free upgrades (800w power supply and chipset upgrade) didn't get the keyboard or the mouse. I also got some extra accessories such as a...

I am sure that we have complained about this before, but will it ever end for me? I haven't worked in the computer industry for over a year now. It is nice just being able to do my own thing and not have to worry about it. But I will tell you a story and it makes me angry, yet I have to deal...

Has anyone ever used their stuff? I think I have a older Death adder that i still haven't used yet, But I always like the feel of their mechanical keyboards. I got to feel their new Razer Ornata Chroma keyboard keys and really liked it. Apparently you have to use their software for their...

So I built my parents a computer (i7, 16gig ddr3, Corsair 650watt modular power supply, Corsair case, Coolermaster heatsink). I pulled a few of my parts out and decided to build a new one. Parts ordered: Motherboard Z170 Chipset: Was looking at all sorts of motherboards. Started out cheap...

Even though I was away from the internet most of the say, it looks like there was a huge DDOS attack on a major DNS host. What they are not telling you is this is a test for upcoming war. Just a test to see if they can drop communications. DDOS Attack

So my parents old desktop that I built them is getting quite old in terms of components. So I have some old parts available. The only thing missing is some DDR3 memory. I came in and popped on Newegg/Amazon to see how much some would be. Geez stuff is so dirt cheap anymore. I might as well buy a...

I know @C Pav thought I was joking the other day when he was talking about getting a new computer and I recommended a Macbook Pro. My computing taste have really changed lately. Maybe I am just getting old, but I'm not into tweaking etc. anymore. I just like something stable and simple. Not...

Ran across this software tonight. It is being developed to detect Ufos using software that works with different cameras. It can detect false positive such as birds and planes. Looks fairly straight forward and can even use your webcam. I think it's fairly new software but the developer seems to...

*NOTE, I no longer will be maintaining these links. Neither will I keep adding new tools or keep up on the latest tools since I am no longer in this line of work. I thought I would keep a list of tools for data recovery. These ones I have personally used. [email protected] Undelete - Does a fairly...

*NOTE, I no longer will be maintaining these links. Neither will I keep adding new tools or keep up on the latest tools since I am no longer in this line of work. So I thought I would list some of the tools that I use to "clean up" machines. Yes you could manually do these things but using...

*NOTE, I no longer will be maintaining these links. Neither will I keep adding new tools or keep up on the latest tools since I am no longer in this line of work. Ok I thought I would post some of the tools here that I use on a daily basis to help people out with. I have my very own custom USB...

Anyone here still using dropbox? If you aren't it's a pretty slick backup and I suggest you sign up (2GB of free storage). Currently if you are using this you can boost your storage by testing their beta and auto importing photos/videos, up to 5GB more free!! I did this myself yesterday. I...

Seems kinda interesting to maintain all your passwords. Just wondering if anyone has ever used it before? https://lastpass.com/
