    Cool project! This reminds me of Chis Noeding's YouTube Channel, where he's been posting his progress on running custom firmware on the newer Behringer X32 mixers - https://www.you…

    I'd recommend checking out this Van building YouTube channel if you're interested in using extruded aluminum for van building. https://youtube.com/c/HumbleRoad It goes in depth on …

    I understand the confusion, because I had to read the title twice to understand what was meant by the $5/month as well. It isn't necessarily wrong, just potentially confusing if yo…

    It used to be the case that you'd get the phone subsidized by your service plan from Verizon, but not any longer. Verizon and the other major US carriers stopped subsidizing phones…

    Just checked it out. Looks interesting. The pricing structure is still not quite the perfect fit for me, so let me explain. I've got around 20 clients I have to meet with in person…

    Unfortunately the pricing plans for LogMeIn and TeamViewer are setup for enterprise customers. I understand it might not be worthwhile for them to deal with smaller customers, but …

    I've used Teamviewer a few times, but I found it cumbersome compared to LogMeIn. I'll have to check it out further. I'm also looking for something that can be used commercially, th…

    Anyone have suggestions for an alternative? I haven't ever found a product that works as consistently and seamlessly (without having to fight firewall issues). Edit: I should add t…

    I agree that "A missed profit is not a loss." For example, Amazon is in my opinion a company that doesn't focus on increasing profits, especially in product areas where they are tr…

    I've personally had a different experience. (Background: I've had an iPhone 3GS and 4, HTC EVO 4G, a LG Optimus from Sprint and Virgin Mobile, some dirt cheap Android-based Samsung…
