One thing I love about the Raspberry Pi (and SBC) community as a whole is how inventive they are at building their own solutions to problems. Where someone might throw a chunk of money at a tech company to get something done, SBC fans apply a little bit of ingenuity to achieve similar results at a fraction of the price. Such is the case of this cool Raspberry Pi-powered live camera that cost its builder $30 to make.

After the CrowdStrike incident caused bluescreens around the world (and its president won an "Epic Fail" award at Def Con), Microsoft has been pretty concerned about a similar issue happening again in the future. After all, if Windows becomes known as an unstable system, companies will likely move away from using it to power their infrastructure. So, Microsoft brought some security firms together to discuss how they can all prevent something like this from happening again, and they've just come to a conclusion.

If you're getting started in the Linux world, then you've probably considered giving Ubuntu a go... or you might even be using it now.

Things like removing files and folders may be confusing, and this is how you can remove a directory in Ubuntu, using both the GUI and the Terminal.

Windows 11 has caused a lot of frustration since its release, with relentless pushes to Windows 10 users to upgrade and the incredible amount of bloat the system came with. However, it wasn't all bad, as it came with some features that Windows 10 didn't have that users appreciated. Having said that, there are plenty of features that it inexplicably left out or poorly implemented that can make it frustrating to use, and these are some of the most frustrating that I've noticed.

Photoshop is one of Adobes best creative software apps, with limitless ways to create or edit images. Since 2023, Adobe subscribers can access Photoshop online, referred to as Photoshop on the web, for access to the software when youre away from your desktop app. Photoshop on the web is similar to, but different from, its desktop sibling, but there are still plenty of interesting things you can do with it.

If you've been searching for a new charger, chances are you've run across the name Anker. The brand has been around for years and has earned a pretty good reputation, producing a wide range of reliable products for affordable prices. Of course, there are other great brands out there as well, but we think that this six-port charging station is going to be a must-have if you're looking to upgrade the charger in your home or office.

Apple Silicon has been an unqualified success for the tech company, with memory, CPU, and GPU all custom-made and combined into a single system on a chip. By and large, Apple customers seem happy with the performance on offer, but unlike Apple's Intel systems, there's no support for graphics cards to expand beyond the power Apple sells out of the box.

An Adobe Creative Cloud subscription can be costly, but with a little intel, you can find and use plenty of Adobe tools without paying a penny. There are more than a handful of tools available across smartphones, desktops, and browsers which let you use Adobes features to transform your work for free, while still offering familiar interfaces compared to other free Adobe alternatives. You typically need a free Adobe account, and some tools do require subscriptions to access premium features, but all are available for free otherwise.
