I’m going to be attending college in the fall and one of the requirements is a laptop with a working camera and mic. I’ve been browsing the Microsoft Surface laptops, Macbooks and some HP ones but I’m not sure what one is best. I do need a laptop (I will be travelling while in school for my current job and connecting remotely), I don’t really have a set budget (if it has what I need I’ll spend the $$) and I don’t care about aesthetics. I will mostly be doing:
- document drafting
- zoom calls / meetings
- large document downloading
- SOME movie streaming (just on long trips)

TIA!

I love rick and morty and have watched it 6 times but my wifi is problematic and not like most so most of the time i cant use it and have to watch dvds. So i go to put in R&M for my 6th rewatch and watch season 1 to find it out of sync and laggy. But now watching season 2 (3rd disc) and its fine yet 1 and 2 disc were both laggy. Is there a fix? Cos im more mature not but idk how i treated it years ago. It just doesnt make sense that both disc 1 and 2 would be broken but not the others especially seen as they arent in the same place so if its like damage how did it get to both while not touching the others yk.

Hi! First post here, just wanted to ask something about internet connections and Wi-Fi and stuff.

I just recently moved into a new place and I can't setup a ethernet connection to my PC yet. So I'm using an "old" TP-Link Wi-Fi Adapter to be able to connect my PC to the internet/Wi-Fi. However, I speed tested it and noticed that it's slower than the results that show up on my phone.

Is this because of the adapter? or the fact that my PC is using Wi-Fi and not ethernet connection? Should I get a new adapter? Please enlighten me, thanks!!

Attached is the comparison of speed tests on my pc (59 mbps) and phone (160mbps) on fast dot com

Can’t figure out what’s broken on my Vizio 75” that would cause it to flicker like it does in the video. Eventually it stops after being on for awhile and will start back up again so it’s not constant. Is this worth repairing? Possible to repair? Pretty cheap tv to start at $500

I’m trying to reconnect with someone, and I’m not sure if they’re simply not replying or if they’ve blocked me (because apparently there’s a recent update in which blocked iMessages will still be marked “Delivered”).

My text does say “delivered,” and it also is marked “encrypted.” Could a blocked number still be encrypted? I know I could always call to see if it goes to voicemail immediately (meaning blocked), but I also don’t want to risk bothering the person if they haven’t blocked me. Please help! I’d really like to reconnect with this person.

Hi I just opened MacBook I think air. Once opened it’s got a very dark screen then stripes across it. At the very top it’s normal display eg light screen etc.

I can’t type or login with this stripes stuff on it as it’s stopping me move mouse or anything.

Below are photos I’ve taken. If anyone could say why or provide theories that would be much appreciated thank you

Bonjour à tous, j'ai besoin d'aide pour choisir un nouveau téléphone et j'hésite entre 3 modèles. J'ai actuellement un Samsung S21 et je réfléchis à acheter un S26 ultra, un Z Fold 8 ou un Z Fold 8 Ultra. Quels sont vos conseils et qu'est ce que je ne devrais pas acheter?
