Do you have a PC that has two operating systems? Many people prefer to use Linux over Windows, but still need to use Windows for software that may not work properly on Linux. I know Wine exists, but some programs still rely on Windows or even Mac to work. Anyways, I'm currently dual booting Windows 11 and Lubuntu on my gaming rig. I went with Lubuntu because it's lightweight and I only have flash drives lying around so I wanted to go with a smaller distro. If I get the external SSD that's on my Christmas list I'm probably going to install Ubuntu or another distro on it and then keep Windows installed on the internal SSD on my computer since I know there's programs I use t…

I have a Samsung phone. It is an old phone but everything is ok, including a good battery backup except for the camera. A few days ago, when I opened my phone camera, it did not open instead gave me warning "Camera failed" I have checked the app and there are no issues, it just does not open. What could be the possible person, is it related to hardware or just a software problem?

While concepts like faster-than-light travel or time travel might remain confined to the realm of fiction, history shows that many once-impossible ideas eventually materialize. Look at smartphones or voice assistants—straight out of yesterday’s sci-fi novels. Personally, I imagine we’ll see mind-reading technology in the future. Imagine a device equipped with advanced neural sensors that could decode and interpret your thoughts, projecting them as images, words, or sounds. It could revolutionize communication, therapy, and creativity—but also raise some big ethical questions. What kind of tech do you think might leap from science fiction into our d…

I hope someone can help with this it is taking up so much time to try and resolve. I have Office 365 and use Outlook for my email, all has been well for a couple of years, I get regular updates from MS. About 10 days ago I found that: a/ all the sub folders under my Inbox folder had disappeared although they still exist in my BTmail if I access through a browser. b/ I can not delete any emails, (within Outlook) If I try I get "The operation cannot be performed because the object has been deleted" It could well be a self inflicted issue as I was trying to get Outlook onto my new mobile phone (unsuccessfully) but can not be sure of the timeline. Thanks in …
