I have spent the last 15 years owning jailbroken iPhones, iPod touches, iPads, and even Apple TVs. At the very beginning, it was my friends who encouraged me to try it. I was always skeptical, thinking it would cause issues with my device or void my warranty with Apple. But after I tried it, I never really looked back.
When you’re planning a trip to somewhere nice, whether that’s for a honeymoon, a vacation from work, or some other mind-relaxing time away from the same old grind, one thing that a lot of people struggle with is deciding what they should pack and what they should leave at home.
Almost everyone has heard of external storage drives at one point, whether that encompassed a USB flash drive, an external USB hard drive, or an external USB solid state drive – these are also known as direct-attached storage (DAS).

If you’ve ever worked in an office environment before, then you’re likely familiar with something called an Uninterruptible Power Supply (or UPS for short). They’re sometimes even referred to as battery backups, by those who hate big words.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in recent years, it’s just how useful a projector can be. In fact, I use a projector for almost all my movie watching, video gaming, and anything else I can think of instead of a traditional television. But this may leave some of you wondering, what about when I leave the comfort of my home and have no projector screen at my disposal?
Brand loyalty runs deep in the photography community. Many photographers swear by their preferred brand and tend to remain with it even as new releases from competing companies come to realization. While not unheard of, it’s uncommon for photographers to move from one brand to the next, especially once heavily invested in one.
While I use a 16-inch MacBook Pro for most of my in-office work, I like to have something a bit more portable for when I’m going to be away from home and still need access to a computer. That was one of the driving forces behind my decision to pick up one of Apple’s razor-thin 2024 M4 chip-equipped 13-inch iPad Pro tablets, since it’s much easier to stow away in a bag than a chunky 16-inch MacBook Pro.
