BenQ Screenbar - Let There Be (comfortable non-eyestraining) Light!
As working from home has become more of a reality for everyone, so has the quest to optimize the home office. One of the things we take for granted is optimal lighting and ergonomics that most workplaces invest in. Having a good lighting setup is key to being happy working from home. I found desk lamps in the past, while usable, leave a lot to be desired. For one thing, they can take both space on the desk, or our field of view. They don't do a great job of lighting the workplace as they create "hotspots" of well lit areas that can over expose your eyes. They also tend to create glare on your screen. The screenbar on the other hand uses no desk space and their directional LED light means ...

Keychron K1 - Bad Bluetooth & Battery - Still Like It :/
Просмотров 11 тыс.3 года назад
I've had this Keychron K1v4 for a few months now. The bluetooth is almost useless at times, and the battery performance is less than desirable, but it's still my current daily driver. It's comfortable and works well in wired mode. It's my daily driver for development/programming work.

Surface Pro 7 - One Year Later [as a non millionaire Software Engineer]

As a diamond-handed well regarded software engineer, I bought the Surface Pro 7 Core i7 16GB / 256GB SSD over a year ago with the intention of using it on my commute to work on side projects. One thing that happened was that I no longer needed to commute and didn't need an ultra portable computer any more. However, despite that, the machine has been a joy to have. It is a great portable compute...

Surprisingly Good Budget Gaming Headsets

The good folks at Vankyo sent me a pair of Commander CM7000 gaming headsets to review and the sound was much better than expected.

Improving iPad Notetaking

I've always wanted to replace my paper notebooks with a digital device, but have always encountered obstacles. It has only been recently that there has been a device that has ticked off most of my requirements for a note taking device. 1. small enough, but not too small. 2. great screen. 3. great battery. 4. great feel. The iPad Pro gets 3/4. It lacks on the feel department and has relegated it...

Is The Nexus 7 Still Useful?

I've had the Nexus 7 (2013) tablet for 7 years now (as of 2020). It has easily been my favourite tablet. It's light, portable and had amazing battery life.

    Bluetooth is unusable. Firmware update and factory reset (fn+j+z) do not help. My right arrow key just works if i press a different key directly before, i.e. if I do not hit a key for 10 seconds and then press the right arrow key nothing happens. So cheap. Otherwise I like the typing feel (Banana switches).

    Thanks for that. I know that video is almost three years old. FYI- I inherited a DS413J at my partner's house that was from her Ex's business and needed to be dusted off three years ago. It still works just fine. I set it up to take the files off of an old, about-to-be-retired Mac that had all of my partner's family pictures and videos (150k files!). Now I need a backup solution for myself, having an old Linksys NSLU2 still running with a WD drive and no RAID. It's been going for about 14 years. Rather than expanding the DS413J, I I am getting a new 2-bay DS-220J, for a minimal RAID system that will be more active. I just feel that after 11 years, it's just a matter of time before her DS413J fails. I have her files also backed up on a 2TB USB drive that's not plugged in. There are no more files going in, her new stuff goes to ICloud.

    Caveat emptor! I made the mistake of buying a Keychron K7. What I received was NOT wireless (no dongle included) and, when connected by USB cable, many keys did not work. When I asked Keychron for an RMA, they demanded that I send them a video proving that I had not falsified the results of their keyboard test. Keychron has ignored all my subsequent requests for an RMA and a refund. There are many reputable companies making keyboards. Before buying anything from Keychron, think! Do you want to give your money to a company that treats its customers this way?
