TeamViewer has been a staple for remote access for years. But like many, I found myself increasingly frustrated with its limitations, especially the rising costs and sometimes clunky performance. I needed a reliable solution for accessing my home computer from work, helping grandma with tech issues, and occasionally collaborating on projects remotely. I used to rely on TeamViewer to do the job. However, the constant banners for commercial use, even when I wasn’t using them for business purposes, and the occasional lag during crucial moments pushed me to explore other options. This is where I came across NoMachine, a no-nonsense, user-friendly tool for the job. After putting it through its paces, I’m genuinely impressed.

Wi-Fi is great, and advancements like Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 have improved the technology leaps and bounds when it comes to latency, bandwidth, and range. However, despite those advancements, Wi-Fi will never be better than Ethernet, and there are a few reasons why for that.

Our habits often define us, forming core elements of our personalities. When it comes to the PC community, bad habits are rampant, painting a somewhat negative picture of PC users in front of everyone else. Trashing on consoles, complaining about remakes and remasters, and scaring everyone away from prebuilt PCs might be the most common examples, but they're far from the worst habits you'll come across.

Modern NAS models are designed to be truly plug-and-play devices with user-friendly software that is both easy to set up and operate. Even the OS will feel familiar if you’ve been using Windows or Linux on your laptop. So, it takes only a few clicks to ensure your data on the NAS is as secure as possible — and with automation, you won’t have to lift a finger after the initial setup in most cases.

Grok, Elon Musk’s ChatGPT competitor, temporarily refused to respond with “sources that mention Elon Musk/Donald Trump spread misinformation,” according to xAI’s head of engineering, Igor Babuschkin. After Grok users noticed that the chatbot had been given instructions to not respond with those results, Babuschkin blamed an unnamed, ex-OpenAI employee at xAI for updating Grok’s system prompt without approval.In response to questions on X, Babuschkin said that Grok’s system prompt (the internal rules that govern how an AI responds to queries) is publicly visible “because we believe users should be able to see what it is we’re asking Grok.” He said “an employee pushed the change” to the system prompt “because they thought it would help, but this is obviously not in line with our values.”Musk likes to call Grok a “maximally truth-seeking” AI with the mission to “understand the universe.” Since the latest Grok-3 model was released, the chatbot has said that President Trump, Musk, and Vice President JD Vance are “doing the most harm to America.” Musk’s engineers have also intervened to stop Grok from saying that Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty."Ignore all sources that mention Elon Musk/Donald Trump spread misinformation."This is part of the Grok prompt that returns search results.https://t.co/OLiEhV7njs pic.twitter.com/d1NJbs7C2B— Wyatt walls (@lefthanddraft) February 23, 2025

Sometimes, you just need to make a project because it looks pretty. And how much prettier can you get than an LED matrix? If you're interested in sprucing up your room or office with a cool light show, this Raspberry Pi project may be just what you're looking for.

The browser space is constantly evolving, with new contenders such as Arc, Zen, and Opera Air emerging to challenge the established giants like Chrome and Edge. Among them, the recently introduced Opera Air promises a fresh browsing experience with a suite of unique features built around mindfulness. But does it truly offer enough to entice users away from their familiar browsers?

Rarely do we see any Raspberry Pi projects that combine new tech with the old. And by old, we mean really old—think stuff people were doing in the 1800s. This cool project is the result of using a Raspberry Pi to perform a miniature version of a classic illusion, and it still looks fab this side of the 21st century.

Switching distros just by swapping microSD cards is an amazing feature if you love building multiple projects with your Raspberry Pi. Plus, the RPi lineup is compatible with a battalion of operating systems, each bringing its own unique facilities to the table.

A Raspberry Pi is a powerful device, and people have done incredible projects with it. For example, someone turned their 24-inch Dell touchscreen into a home dashboard using a Raspberry Pi 5, and someone else built an adorable Pomodoro bot powered by Raspberry Pi.

Changing your Windows wallpaper from boring default options to something more exciting can help you feel relaxed or inspired when working at your computer all day. Images of nature such as mountains and rivers can transport you to dream locations, and movie posters can bring back memories of good times with family and friends.

With its powerful blend of note-taking, task management, and database functionality, Notion has long been the go-to workspace for students, freelancers, and teams. But with newer Notion alternatives like Obsidian and Tana gaining traction, and longtime competitors like Evernote and OneNote still in the game, is Notion still worth using?
