  1. I love the "sky is falling" mentality in this place. It's quite amusing and humorous. Always good entertainment... you might as well sell everything off move to a cabin in the woods. Your mental health would be extremely better off.
  2. Photo, video, and graphics creation and editing. Writing for various publications. I am a photographer/videographer, I have a marketing company, a clothing company and a wood/metal fabrication shop behind my house. I am FINALLY getting all of these up and running with MrsKojack and I am now able to work full time and make a good living with them. I am putting in my resignation with my part time job at the mall in a few weeks. One alone will not do it, but all together we will have a nice family run group of businesses where we work from home, to be with our son full time, and be able to hit the road for extended leave when we want and still work and earn an income. It's all about what you want from life. We want to be together, work from home/remote and enjoy the finer things in life (not possessions but experiences). Our son will be with us for the rest of our lives, so while we are on the earth, we are going to be here for him and show him everything we can!
  3. Yep. Can't wait to go to the ole Pepperoni hug spot. CRINGE! AI has A LONG LONG WAY to go. Pepperoni Hug Spot
  4. He and I are very artistic and creative. He does not doing anything for work, but he is CONSTANTLY creating pictures, videos etc for himself. It's awesome to watch. I create for work. Speaking of that, I have just been hired by a very well known website about mobile devices to write content for them. Cannot wait to get started.
  5. You are 100 percent correct Ryan. We have a super expensive Samsung curved 4k tv at work. Running on Bell's 4k tv service. You can only tell a difference if you are 0-about 6ft away. After that there is no discernable difference in image quality that you can see. Placebo. 4k etc are great for PC monitors because you are only a couple of feet away. After that, nope. I can't tell the difference between my "crappy" Motorola display on my G 5g or the "magical" display of my iPhone 13 other than color temperature differences.
  6. My iPhone has nothing google and very little apple on it. I just don't like their services. I enjoy my MS365 software and edge browser.
  7. Yes, the lightning port is slow A?F. We are going to St. John's this weekend to visit our son who lives out there. I am going to best buy, and getting the Logitech keyboard with trackpad for it. Should make the creating side of things much better. I HATE typing on screen. I will use my iPad much more and probably put my laptop into it's messenger bag, or on my writing desk and keep my ipad out on the sofa to Shoot the Poop on here etc. All in all though, it's a decent experience. I am starting to enjoy android more now too. I have a Motorola phone, and Samsung android tablet and both perform fine as well.
  8. Yip. Had 2 or three of those. Also had a couple of 252s as well, one in black and the other in "woodgrain". That was a snazzy phone.
  9. Forgot about the google buds, they may work awesome too.
  10. I don't know to be honest. I would say they would pair like any other Bluetooth earbud. I have a set of JVC and I swap mine across between my windows pc's, iphone and ipad.
  11. Beats is my vote since they work like airpods with your apple devices, but you don't look like a total wanker with white earwax coming out of your ears..😄
  12. yes. but I am not sure when they are being released. I am very interested in getting one for the Hyperencode features with i9/i7 chipsets. I do video/photo/graphic creation and the arc series graphics are actually really good for that.
  13. the screen was an oled with 1280x780 ish resolution it was awesome. I had to replace it and the way you get into the phone was one torx screw in the sim tray slot. It unlocked the screen with a crazy engineered mechanism. You could replace everything by taking that loosening that one screw. Still the best phone I have ever owned. Running windows 10 mobile it was fast, smooth as silk, the camera still bests stuff from today and the battery life was good enough to get through a day and a bit in 2013. It never officially got w10m but you could get it windows preview/insider flight. Now, I am not sure if you can load it on or not. If I could, I would buy one today!
  14. If I could load windows 10 mobile onto the lumia 1020 (it was possible but I think those have since been shuttered), I would be using it right now. I need to surf the net, text, make calls and take photos (the 1020 still destroys most phones out today in image quality). Thats it with my phone. Oh, and hotspot wifi from it.
  15. No, he does not game on his computer. He uses his switch and iPad for gaming. He uses his computer for creation work.
  16. It will be used for productivity so max refresh rate is no big deal. I’m thinking more from a reliability standpoint.
  17. My acer now has a 720p display 1440x720, I am looking for a 1080 replacement display. Anyone know how I would go about this? I know someone on the old site had a listing for it.
  18. So I had my acer apart. it's already running a nice fanless heatpipe cpu cooler. I noticed the boards are mounted on the back area of the case so 120mm will not fit there...HOWEVER, There is already a 120mm fan mounted on the side to push air through the CPU cooler. So swapping that to a Noctua will be easy, as will be the 40mm in the PSU. I am getting ready to order the PCI-E nvme drive card so I can install the OS on it and see if I can get it to work as OS based drive.
  19. one hundred percent. He will be back, just A crazy time in his life right now. I have been there so I know. New baby, 24/7 attention.
  20. I would keep your notebook you have now. Maybe upgrade the internals a bit. Add some more ram, etc. May help with the speeds.
  21. They do. Maybe have a weird way of showing it. I thank you for the compliments. We (mrskojack and myself) try our best to give our two sons the best life. Our other son is 25 and is working on his new business. He's set up and we only have to provide emotional support to him!
  22. This is the reason I am wanting this so bad. I use iPhone for imessage, if beeper works good, I won't mind not having an iPhone anymore, or...if phone link has the kinks ironed out as I suspect they will in a month or so, I will also be fine. I am moving away from working at bell so I can be with my son full time. I will be spending more time on the computers working and creating so I want to have communication without having to stop what I am doing and pick up my phone/tablet to do it.
  23. Yes, they (beats) are bonkers expensive. I may try to pair my jvc to my watch too. Never tried it yet. Klipsch are awesome! Had a full home theater setup from them a few years back then went to PSB speakers for my theater.
