My three most recent laptops...

    Gamers Nexus vs LinusTechTips: Smackdown

    LTT is a show to make money. It has a thin veneer of tech journalism wrapped around it at the end of the day it is a show designed for its entertainment value. Linus has always been a salesman first and for most, if he did not work in tech he would be selling used cars.

    windows Defender & shadow copy

    Thanks for the reply. The files in question are already in the exclusion's list, however, when windows creates a restore point it then flags the shadow copy volume as containing a virus.

    All of a sudden windows defender is reporting that my shadow copy volumes contain a virus, however, the backed up files are excluded from windows defender and are not malware. Is their a way to get windows to stop scanning shadows copy locations or add an exemption?

    Resolution and low vision

    So, speaking as a person who has no usable vision at this point in time, at one point I was pretty Lowe vision. screen size does matter, and it is best to go to a store and physically view the screen, to big and you end up panning your head to see the darned thing and to small you lose realist...

    Accessing TOC in foxit

    Ok, maybe I am just missing this, but I cannot seem to figure out how to access a PDFs table of contents with foxit reader. I know the PDF has a toc, and can access in adobe, but this is a rather large file and adobe seems to struggle. Thanks in advance.

    acquired an HP desktop i7 11700 system to play with. Cooling system too weak. All core turbo caps out at 3.3ghz

    The Dell inspiron 3880 with an i7 10700 has lack luster cooling as well. Does the HP use the cpu fan with a weird duct configuration instead of a rear case fan?
