DO NOT
DO
Buy a hard to fix all-in-1 computer. If the monitor breaks then it all breaks.
Buy a windows desktop and any monitor. If one breaks the other is OK.
Buy a laptop to leave in one place plugged in 24/7. Laptops = mobile! You want the battery to explode?
Buy a windows desktop & any monitor. You come to them.
Pay for virus checkers.
Free virus checkers like AVG are fine if whiny.
Use "the cloud" for a backup! What is that?
Use local backups with USB 3 external storage.
Pay for AOL. This email service switched to free a long time ago. For years seniors were still paying!
Use AOL. I do ! I always have. My first email address is my last.
Pay AT&T for anything. Why get hi speed Internet from a company with "Telegraph" in it's name?
Get your Internet and cable from Spectrum. I do. But don't get all services from one provider.

ADAM RUINS TECH

Remember that enormous amount of legalese you don't read but keep clicking "AGREE" on every time you install tech? UH OH! Adam shows how we are losing the 'right to repair' our own products we bought. Yes you own the hardware, but not the programs that run it. Everything from Apple phones, Keurig coffeemakers, HP printers and John Deere tractors may refuse to work if you make them mad.

JOHN OLIVER ON HATING FACEBOOK

John Oliver reviews Facebooks' bad behavior, like indirectly encouraging genocide in Burma to make a quick buck. Groan. Oh, plus that "Russians in the 2016 Election" thingy.
 

MAC REPAIRMAN SLOWLY GOES INSANE IN 20 MIN CONFESSIONAL RE: CULTS/STALINISM

I'm a decent Mac repairman in that I am a cross between a pro-video editor, a tech nurse and a computer psychiatrist. But this guy Louis Rossmann (NOT a pro-video editor) is a SURGEON who will charge up to $700 to put chips under the microscope and really go to town soldering and acid washing. Nobody knows more about how Apple designs bad products to exploit and gaslight their true believers. That is why he, and I, don't use Macs.

Gaslighting someone is when you claim to be their savior but you are actually the problem. Anyone who is banished to the Apple store will understand, as will ex-Scientologists. It's kind of the same thing.

I really HATE opening Mac laptops and all-in-ones but people keep bringing them to me because they hate the Apple store so much and I charge so little.

Louis makes overlong videos but, as far as computer surgeons go, I think he's kinda cute. How does he afford his Manhattan rent? Servicing overpriced Macs people can't let go of! I wonder if he is Gay. He also posts unprofessional videos about how much he loves his cat. Okay, yeah, he is probably Gay. No wait, he has a girlfriend!
