To become valued in the technology industry you need to show that you have the ability and the know-how to perform with some of the world’s most complex tools. Every industry requires technology input and it’s a field that is continually growing at a rapid rate. Since technology can differ from industry to industry, a technician needs to be able to prove to an employer that they know what they say they know. One of the ways to prove your knowledge is by receiving a certificate or an award. The technology industry has hundreds of certificates and awards to choose…

The internet is a dangerous place. There are people from all over the world that want to harm you and your network connected devices. Inject malware to take over those devices, steal personal information, watch what you do online, and so much more can be done by a hacker with even little know-how. Malicious attacks attack your network every single day. They come in the form of malware, spyware, worms, trojans, adware, crypto, or phishing, which is the act of tricking a user to provide personal information to a hacker while making it look legitimate. Every single day, Google puts…

Nearly every profession requires some sort of data lookup. A lookup that needs to be stored on a hard drive. A hard drive that has limited storage. These very reviews are stored on a cloud server ready to be shown to the world for your reading pleasure. Not only are they stored on a cloud server, but also stored on my desktop and my home Network Attached Storage (NAS) unit. Three different places, three different hard drives all of which have limited space. In business, as the organization grows and expands, so does their technology infrastructure. The business teams will…

In late 2017, there were a lot of computer brands such as Asus, Acer, and Gigabyte who came to the market with monstrous gaming laptops that are so heavy and bulky is it really fair to call them laptops at all? Asus’s ROG GX700VO is a water-cooled laptop that has a docking station the size of a woman’s large handbag. Then there is Acer’s Predator 21 X gaming laptop that is as thick as a college textbook. Gigabyte goes for a more practical route with their P56XT, but who really wants to carry around a 6-pound unit in their backpack?…

Most people want to have a healthy lifestyle. We want what is best for our bodies and to make sure we are strong, fit, and healthy, just as nature intended a creature to be. Yet, the tasty sensation of chips, fast food, and candies make a healthy diet difficult. Everyone’s bodies are different in so many ways. Some people can build muscle and lose weight easily, while others have a tough time putting on weight in the first place, and there are some who can’t lose it however hard they try. All of this doesn’t mean we can’t try to…

When smartphones were becoming a big thing, the push was to have the smallest phone out there. Then, realizing their potential, manufacturers made a 180-degree turn and started making them bigger and bigger. Like how the new Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is a 6.3” screened behemoth. As smartphones continue to get bigger, desktop computing has also taken a 180-degree turn. Instead of having the biggest desktop tower, it’s becoming more practical and desirable to have a smaller tower instead. New processors are far more energy and heat efficient, motherboards need less room to do more things, and we generally are…

It is the beginning of December at the time of writing this review and we have just received our first two to three inches of snow. As the white powder falls from the sky and we brave the cold weather, our cars can take a serious environmental beating. A car’s battery is meant to be used to start your engine when you turn the key or press the start button. Once the engine is running, the car’s alternator will supply the rest of the power. The battery is needed to keep the car’s electrical accessories running when the engine is…

Contrary to popular belief, building a desktop computer is a fun, educational, and easy thing to do.

With this guide, we hope to outline what to do when…

Ten years ago, Steve Jobs walked onto a stage to introduce a revolutionary update to a device that would change technology to what we know today. His vision and innovation of “fixing” an existing product was Apple’s propelling push to the technology giant they are today. Apple’s original iPhone was a 3.5-inch displayed device and ever since then, smartphones have gotten a lot, lot bigger. My daily driver is the Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus with a 6.2-inch display, nearly double the original iPhone. When purchasing this phone, I was afraid that the screen size would be unwieldy, but it turns…
