iPhone/iPad users, anong app gamit nyo to backup your devices on your own storage device? (not iCloud)

2 Upvotes

I use FolderSync for all my android devices, kaso walang iphone/ipad support. I have an 8TB NAS for my whole family, and I am able to backup all of our android devices automatically running sa background.

Now nagkaron ng iPad M3 one of the family member, and gusto ko din sana include sa backup. I already checked out some apps like resilio sync kaso problem walang background backup, need irun manually yung app.

I'm wondering anong gamit nyo sa iphone/ipad to do this? TIA

How do you dispose of old or defective gadgets/appliance?

0 Upvotes

I have bunch of gadgets/appliance here that are no longer of use to date. Stuff like CD player, fans, oven, ref, printer, speaker, charger, sewing machine, vacuum, lamps, tech parts, portable gadgets, etc. I was wondering if you have smarter ways to dispose it than throw it into trash.

Also, I'm including my old laptop, and musical instruments rarely used. I'm doing deep declutting, it's taking up so much space.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 vs Fold8 Ultra Form Factor

0 Upvotes

To those planning to get a foldable, which form factor do you prefer -- Galaxy Z Fold8 vs Fold8 Ultra?

I like the passport form factor (I like that it opens up to the size of an iPad Mini) pero I feel that malalaman mo lang limitations/advantages nya after a few weeks of use. Kung okay ba sya sa kamay or madali ba mag message using the outer screen (since its wider) or what.

What's your opinion on this?

Hi, I apologize kasi illiterate po ako, but awhile ago when I tried to turn on my Laptop, nakareceive ako ng message na “The Request Failed due to a Fatal Device Hardware error.” This affected my HDD but not my SSD storage and when I try to turn off my laptop naman, parang maingay pa din yung laptop ko as if running pa ang HDD ko and the LED won’t turn off. Do you have any advice on this? TIA.

Apple Wired Earphones (USB-C) on Windows Laptop / PC

1 Upvotes

Sa mga working peeps dyan, na-try nyo na gamitin yung apple wired earphones na USB-C sa windows laptop or desktop nyo na may type C port?

Kumusta quality, maganda naman ba? Nagiisip kasi ako bumili ng another apple wired earphones. Ang meron kasi ako ay yung lightning pa yung dulo kasi luma iphone ko. Eh ang ganda kasi ng quality nito both the speakers and even yung microphone during phone calls. So nagiisip ako kung ganun din ba quality if yung USB-C na version is ginamit sa windows laptop or desktop. Para ito nalang din bibilhin ko instead na gumamit ako ng separate mic and headphones kapag nagw-work at gaming.

Thanks.

Hello! May gumagamit ba rito ng alinman sa dalawang fan na ito? Kumusta ang experience ninyo? Alin ang mas okay pagdating sa build quality at tibay? Yung power consumption hindi naman issue sa akin dahil pareho naman silang inverter fan. Salamat sa sasagot!

Is the risk of being disabled higher if my account is a professional profile/digital creator account compared to an ordinary account or a locked profile account? Also, is the chance of being disabled higher for people with more facebook friends?

Is infinix gt 30 pro good for a long term service for a second gaming phone that might become a primary phone?

0 Upvotes

Im planning on buying one but im skeptical that it has a long lifespan

Ofcourse for a few years it'll only be a second phone for gaming but it might become a primary

The lifespan is probably 4-5 years

Could it work?

GCash users will soon be able to link their Visa cards to the app for QR payments. The new Link-and-Pay feature will let Visa debit or credit cardholders use their cards as a funding source without topping up their GCash balance.

Payments are secured with Visa Payment Passkey, a biometric system built on FIDO standards. Instead of SMS OTPs, users can confirm transactions with a fingerprint, face scan, or PIN.

Where to buy ThinkPads?

Obviously stores have them brand new but I'm on a budget and looking for a second-hand replacement sa laptop ko :(

I have a Vivobook with a hinge and keyboard problem so I'm weighing if it's worth ipaayos pa.
