Any multiplayer PS5 game recommendations? I’d like to play with my kids. What I would like is for all of us to play at the same time without split screens. Anything like that?

WTB an unlocked iPhone that I can use on T Mobile. More memory is preferred, but not a deal breaker. Accessories are not needed but considered. No broken or cracked screens at all. Of course, has to work. Shipping to Texas. Payment via Zelle. PayPal or Venmo also possible if...

I need to spend some money that is part of my work compensation package. Either I spend it, or I lose it. Buying Apple products is easy since it’s reimbursed without question. Phones, tablets and computers are fine. Unfortunately, no monitors or peripherals. Anyways, is there an Apple...

I have an Oculus 3 and the whole family uses it. Me and two kids mainly (9 and 11). This weekend, I just got an email for age verification. Seems like the games that I allow my 9 year old to play has raised some flags. They want me to verify my age and then make her a separate account. An...

Ubiquiti Cloud Key Plus Gen 2 for sale. I got the Dream Machine so this is extra. I never used the Protect feature so the drive is untouched. $100 shipped, Zelle only.

I’d like to use a Mac Mini M1 as a glorified Apple TV. Specifically I want to use the Mini to run Infuse which will get media from my Synology NAS. I can use Plex as well, but I really really like Infuse. What do you recommend I use to control the Mini? Would a wireless keyboard with a built...

I have 2 Ubiquiti POE enterprise switches, less than 50 feet from each other (via attic cable route). I have SFP+ ports available on both, and I also have 2.5GbE ports available on both. Currently I have them connected via CAT5E cable on the 1 GbE ports (1 GbE on the 24 port switch and 2.5 GbE...

The wifi capabilities of the Mac Studio are just pitiful. I have the first generation Studio. Its a known issue and no real good solution to use the existing wifi module in the studio. I have a full ubiquiti system. What product should I use to use the ethernet out of the studio to convert...

This is what I would like to use my Oculus for. Welding and self improvement. I know there are many meditation apps, but that’s not what I’m talking about. Specifically I’d like to learn how to weld AND I’d like to use VR for it. That pride though. Gah. $1000

I’m new to console gaming. I bought a PS5 and I bought a game on disc. Now I need the disc every time. Is there a legal way around that requirement? In the future it seems I should only buy digital download games to avoid using the disc. Is that correct? I have fiber, so there doesn’t...

Starfield seems like a game I’d like to play. Watched some videos and looks right up my liking. I do not have anything I can play it on. Is the least inexpensive and easiest way to get an Xbox disk less and do a digital copy? I don’t need game pass or anything like that (nor do I want...

I've decided on replacing my NAS, and I am finally getting around to it. For my needs a Synology 1522+ will do just fine. I haven't decided on the drives yet, but that isn't (necessarily) my question. Once I decide on the drives, is there a way I can briefly stress test them to weed out any...

WTB a Go Pro package / system. I want the camera (duh) with whatever mounting accessories you have. I absolutely need the Go Pro to be waterproof (not just water resistant). We will be swimming with it. I strongly prefer to pay via Zelle. I can use PayPal but that is a distant option.

Wow. A co-worker recommended I try it. Just wow. I'd like to play some games in another room. What system will optimize the experience? Currently I have it on my Mac Studio, I like it. However, I want it to be BETTER! the PS5 is in the kid's (age 8 and 10) playroom and I do NOT want to...

I have significant Bluetooth delay from a Mac Studio and external speakers. Its like 3-4 seconds! It’s not a big deal when I am listening to music in the back ground, but with anything with video, the audio video lag is awful. At that point I put on my WIRED head phones and watch. I’ve tried...

I made a thread earlier about backing up my old NAS. I am considering just replacing it now, since I'll be upgrading a very obsolete product. I have the NAS picked out (but I'm open to recommendations). I'd like to stick with Synology, so I picked the DS1621+. It has the features I want, at...

There was a time I would over clock, mess with memory setting and try to tweak hardware. Now I’m a click and set and forget. I’ve looked online on the official Synology website. However how would you recommend a full Synology NAS back up for a person as dumb as me? Currently I have about...

Selling a sealed XBOX Series X with extra controller. Only the controller is used (I used it with a iPad to play Diablo). $400 shipped via Zelle. Will trade for an Apple Mini M1, money either direction works. I recently bought a PS5 and the PS VR2, so I no longer need this. No warranty from...

I finally caved and bought a Quest 2 256 gig. So now I have a Quest 1 with 64 gigs available. Yea, I could sell it or give it away. Is there anything I can do with it now that I’ve transferred my account off of it? Like completely jailbreak it and use it tethered to my computer (max...

Is there anything available that does all the above? I have a Mac Studio and I’m trying to optimize the Bluetooth output. I want to use Sony WH-1000XM5 and they use LDAC audio (a Sony thing). Is there a Bluetooth transmitter that’ll connect to the computer via USB and give me better audio...

I would like to sell it as a package, but if I had to break it up I’d sell all the games as a single package and the Switch as a package. $500 to me. I prefer Zelle, but I think I can take Venmo (wife’s account). I’ve been burned by PP, so I only use that for merchants (I pay using it)...

I have 2 Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO (wifi 5) access points and 4 Ubiquiti U6 Lites (wifi 6). The Pros are obviously older and I am reusing them. Is there *any* issue on using them mixed in with U6 Lites? If there is any issue, I can move the Pro APs to the periphery of my network, which is basically...

What’s the best head set to buy right now with some limitations. Under $3000. I’m saying best, for image quality and speed. I can use headphones for audio. 1. Stand alone, no computer required. Or Mac OS native support. I don’t want to boot camp or windows. 2. Has to have some kind...

I need to get internet access to a building that’s 200-250 yards away. Heavy trees in between (about 100 yards of trees and 150 yards of pasture). No line of sight, unless I build tall which isn’t feasible. No chance of digging, the properties are separated by a county road. I’ve done some...

I have several relatively current iPads, iPads Pros that I’d like to use as security viewing device / monitor around the house. Video from Ubiquiti cameras, to the Ubiquiti Dream Machine and accessed via the Ubiquiti Protect app. I know how to set my main iPad up, but how do I manage a bunch...

Need an external hard drive for photo editing. I want something fast. Computer is going to be a MBP current year (M1/M2) or older (Intel) or an M2 Mini (when it comes out). Should I get an SSD and put it in an external enclosure? Should I get an M2, and enclosure? I don't know what the...

Alright. Here goes. I bought a PS5 in anticipation of the PS VR2 glasses coming out sometime in 2023. So. I haven’t owned a game console since the original XBOX. Never owned a PS. I am completely platform agnostic, I do not own any previous games. I bought it for the upcoming...

I’m not 100% sure what happened, but this is what I think happened. I have Starlink hooked up to WAN 1 and my LTE (via hotspot modem) to WAN 2. WAN 2 is the fail over. When it rained 3 inches in 90 minutes here, my Starlink was a bit spotty. So the UDM failed over to the LTE (as it should)...

I’m needing a larger display for a MBP that has a thunderbolt connector (computer has the connector). I’d like a monitor 24-32 inches, so a wide range of sizes. I’m looking at monitors and the price range is huge. Price doubles or triples if the monitor is thunderbolt compatible...

Any personal recommendations on a normal mouse with bluetooth to use with a MBP? I am using the Apple Magic Mouse, and its not doing it for me. I’m old with muscle memory, and I need a ”normal” mouse. I need that right click to be right there, I do NOT need a multi touch surface on the mouse...

I do NOT even know how to phrase the question I am asking. I do not even know if I am asking the correct question. Please help me with all of it. I’ve ordered the Ubiquiti Dream Machine Pro (UDM Pro) and should get it this week. Hopefully soon I will be getting Starlink and fiber. I will...

Ridicule me if you want to, I deserve it. I needed 2 POE switches, and I made a thread about it here. Here is another regarding the Brocade switches. So I bought these on eBay, bought all the add ons, had them completely wiped and then updated. They work fine. Lot of customization, lot of...

On going saga. In our new house I had the electricians run CAT5E cables to everywhere I thought I’d need it. The actual wiring was cheap compared to the labor costs to run the cable, which was $25 a drop during construction (nothing but wood studs). It didn’t matter if they ran one cable or...

As I have posted here, I recently bought a Prusa Mini+, and things are progressing slowly. Mainly because I have a job and family. I get to do my things in the time in between, just like most of y’all. A friend at work likes to tinker with 3D printers. What that means, he likes buying 3D...

In 2019 I asked which printer to get and got a fantastic recommendation for the Canon all in one color laser printer. Its been great the last 3 years. With the updates to OSX, macOS, iOS (etc). Canon has not kept up with the driver set, so I can no longer print from my MBP. I can print from...

I need a new multi WAN router. I am looking at the TP Link ER605 because it supports 4 WAN ports. As odd as it sounds, I need those WAN ports, just to have some resemblance of connectivity. So the rest of my network is Ubiquiti and I have the Ubiquiti controller to manage all the Ubiquiti...

Any current system use an Xbox for VR? Or rumors of something coming out?

My internet access is *quite* lacking deep in the country in East Texas. I have made other posts about it, but in a nutshell. I have 2 DSL lines, individually about 4-5 down and 1 up (max). I have a PepLink router that I have both modems connected to, and that router load balances the...

I do not have a 3D printer. I do want one, I do have uses for it, and I do like to learn things. I finally have space for a work area. I do not have a lot of time to trouble shoot NON working gear. I don’t mind fixing things, but if all my time is spent fixing something, well….. You know...

I like the Oculus and I have it modded with the Vive head gear set up. I’m reading that the visuals are much better. Is that true? Subjectively speaking, how much better? I know that’s a tough question. I don’t mind the audio not being better, as long as I can use Bluetooth headphones...
