Mini PCs are more prone to overheating than larger desktops, but some units handle heat better than others. Much depends on the configuration, design, and the tasks you're running on it: the more resource-intensive the tasks, the hotter the mini PCs get. Whatever the cause may be, you now have a DIY fix to the overheating problem in mini PCs.

At this point, it feels like anything with a screen that can't run Doom is an oddity. We've seen so many different devices running the classic FPS, that it's hard to keep track of them all. However, to my knowledge, this is the first time anyone has gotten Doom running on a power bank. You know, because they tend to lack screens.

With Windows 10's end-of-life date fast approaching, people on the older operating system have a choice to make. They can either extend their Windows 10 support, go for an alternate OS, or upgrade to Windows 11. And while Microsoft will let you do any of those, it would rather like it if you decided to chuck out your old PC and shell out for a new one. Perhaps one of those new Copilot+ devices?

There aren't a ton of games out there that give you a ton of high-quality content for a buck, but every so often, a well-received game will go on such a drastic sale that you'd be silly not to snap it up.

When you’re juggling multiple documents at once, whether it’s for your 9-to-5 job or cramming for a college midterm, finding connections across them can quickly become a headache.

We've known for a little while now that Microsoft will allow those of us still on Windows 10 to extend our security support for another year after the end-of-life date in October. However, until now, there hasn't really been a way to enrol in it. We knew what it'd take, but we had no way of telling Microsoft what path we'd like to take.

Repurposing old devices to a useful role brings me joy. I have a fairly old Sony speaker system lying around that has stood the test of time. It still works and sounds well, but only accepts AUX cable output, so I use my other Tribit speaker to play audio wirelessly. I use an old phone to play music on the Sony speaker, but getting up and changing tracks has become a chore. I have been exploring self-hosted services and Raspberry Pi operating systems for quite some time, but I hadn't considered updating my Hi-Fi speaker system to modern standards.

Sometimes you just want to make some batch templates. And in Windows 11, that can often be a painstaking hassle. It can also be tricky to do, depending on what file types you're trying to make templates in. There is always the slow way to use templates on Windows, by creating them one at a time in the specific program, and then duplicating the blank template file over and over to create all the batch files you need.

Real-time strategy games are a big part of PC gaming, especially with franchises like Star Wars being tied so closely to video games. Being able to command legions of units to destroy enemies and complete objectives is a power fantasy that most gamers often find themselves enjoying. And when paired with an iconic universe with such beloved visuals and characters, it becomes the makings of a great gaming experience.
