#Android home screen setup

[solus-official]

UBUNTU TOUCH | DAY ONE

If you didn't see one of my previous posts, I've got a phone to experiment with, and I'm gonna be trying out various mobile operating systems! (Primarily linux based! Not that android isn't linux but lets be real.) please ignore my greasy ugly hand Installation Process: The installation actually wasn't that bad! Was kinda awkward trying to get the phone updated to the correct version without upgrading too far, but after that was dealt with everything else was taken care of very smoothly and easily with the UB Ports custom installer! Didn't have a fail state, nor did the phone brick! I'd rate this an 8/10! Setup and Tutorial: Setting up the phone after the install was very fast, frankly there wasn't much to set up. Thankfully it's not like Google or Apple where they ask for your firstborn son before even asking for your SIM card. Just needed to set up a password/passcode, set up my SIM (Which was thankfully automatic kinda, details later) and confirm a Wi-Fi connection if I wanted to!) Tutorial however, was a bit lackluster. While it was descriptive, it also only popped up on my first time seeing each screen. (E.g. I didn't get the tutorial for the phone app until I opened the phone app.) While I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing, it also means I would need to walk through every inbuilt app to make sure the tutorials are all done. kinda annoying in my personal opinion. Overall I'd rate this 6~7/10. Usage and Experience: For day one this isn't super important, however first impressions do matter for most people. The OS as a whole was very snappy, and never froze or lagged in any of my testing. Additionally, the pull-down shade is very nice! Could be simplified a little more so that you don't need to scroll sideways, and it would also be nice to see more settings overall since the system seems to be quite bare for settings at the moment. However one of the things that really bothers me as a button-enjoyer is the OS not having a button navigation method. The only way to navigate between screens is to swipe from the sides, top or bottom as gestures, similar to Apple and the recent Android iterations. These gestures don't even work perfectly either, which makes it more annoying that I don't have a home button or back button. If there is a home-swipe or back-swipe, then the tutorial did not detail it, and I cannot find it anywhere in the settings. Overall, it's a 4/10 but with LOTS of potential! Functionality: This focus' almost entirely on how it functions as a phone, and if it's problematic for any reason. So far it seems great outside of one issue, as commented on earlier (This is the details later bit lmao). Plugged an active SIM card into the phone and it automatically logged the APN and other important information which was very nice. Tested the mobile data and texting, and found no issues except for maybe being unable to send MMS (Need to double check that it was not a file size issue.) However, this entire time I've not had the ability to make or take calls. I'm not sure why, the APN, provider, and everything in the settings is correct to what I can tell. I may attempt to either reinstall the dialer application, or erase and manually set the APN in the event that might fix it. If I cannot get calling to work this score will look a lot uglier. Overall, it's a 7~8/10! for now.

App Availability: Seems great! The built in app-store, or "OpenStore" is pretty cool, and seems to have a lot of useful apps. I did notice a small fraction of android apps that I could use (Like Slack, thanks workplace -ﻌ-) but they were just WebUI apps, which isn't bad, but it's bad. I haven't attempted to set up or use Waydroid, but I will not have that change the score at all since using Android apps (kinda barely) defeats the purpose of an alternative operating system. Overall score, 8/10, but needs a deeper dive.

I'll likely put out another update at either 15 days or 30 days!

Whenever you guys think you want one!

[ranidspace]

i can understand wanting headphone jacks back (not really) but the home button sucked ass.

yeah let me just take up 1/6th the screen for a Single button which does two things.

the digital android 3 button setup is just fucking peak i hate the swipe bars thats common these days

oh but you want a physical button to press ok. but did you notice that the iphone 7, 8, SE2, and SE3 didnt have physical home buttons? its a digital button with a vibration motor to make it seem like a button. nobody complained. its a digital button but it takes up physical space like its dumb.

im sorry to all the apple fans who have to live with the swipe bar my condolences that actually does suck

[st-va]

I despise short form content.

I hate YouTube shorts and I hate Instagram reels. I hate not having control over the time I spend on these 2 particular apps and just how easy it is to get lost — after all, that's what they are designed to do.

If you're on the same boat as me and don't want to download some sketchy shit to stop those urges, let me show how to completely remove ads, shorts, reels and skip annoying sponsors with just the Firefox mobile browser.

Below the cut is an (I hope) comprehensive guide on how to achieve the dream homepage

Before I begin, I need to say that:

I am not sponsored by anything mentioned

This is only tested on an android device

There is a trade off in performance in both apps

Notifications will direct you to the hellscape that is the original app

The font in the screenshots is not something native to Firefox, I just love pixels

Here is a pros and cons list to using my method

YouTube pros:

No ads

No sponsorships (mostly)

No shorts

No community posts

Background play (finicky)

More privacy

Extentions for this are all widely used

Cons:

Outdated UI

Unable to have a video minimised at the bottom of the screen by scrolling down

Slower to load vids on homescreen (not by much)

Full screen is a bit finicky sometimes

Important to note:

I don't know if this impacts data usage

Video quality is the same

I've been using this for at least a month, imho the pros outweigh the cons by a BIG margin.

Instagram pros:

No ads

No reels

Quicker access to direct messages

Cons:

Definitely a lot more laggy

Refreshes are sometimes needed

Extention is not used by many

Important to note:

Same as YouTube, but I have not used this for a while. I figured out that what I can do with YouTube is applicable with Instagram today.

Having said that

Let us begin

The thing that this whole "hack" revolves around is the ability to use extensions in the mobile version of the Firefox browser.

Once you have downloaded the browser (it'd probably ask you to make an account, I don't know if it's a necessity), you'd want to go to the settings(top right) then the Extensions menu (fourth one top down). Scroll down to the "Find more Extentions" button and then search.

Here are the extensions I have

Not all of these are necessary, this is just my setup. Firefox is my default browser so i use other stuff too.

That's it! Here are some before and afters:

YouTube

Before:

After:

(thank you matpat for the perfect video for this lol)

Instagram

After:

(I'm out of pics per post so only the after)

Hopefully I've managed to be of help. I'll answer any questions that you may have!

Oh, and if you guys want I can give a shorter tutorial on how to add a shortcut to these sites to your home screen.

Unlocking the power of Android apps on your xmltv iptv epg source can be a game-changer in terms of entertainment and convenience. Imagine being able to access all your favorite apps, videos, and games right from the comfort of your couch.

But before you dive into this world of possibilities, it's important to ensure that your digital TV is compatible with Android apps. In this comprehensive guide, we will walk you through everything you need to know about compatible models and how to get started.

First things first, not all digital TVs are equipped with the necessary hardware and software to run Android apps. To enjoy the full benefits of Android apps on your TV, you'll need a smart TV that supports the Android operating system. These TVs come with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, an app store, and a user-friendly interface that allows you to download and install Android apps.

One popular brand that offers a wide range of Android-compatible digital TVs is Sony. Their Bravia series is known for its stunning picture quality and extensive app library. Models like the Sony Bravia X90H and X950H are highly recommended if you're looking to unlock the full potential of Android apps on your xmltv viewer. These models run on Android TV, which is a version of Android specially designed for television sets.

Another brand worth mentioning is Samsung. Their smart TVs also support Android apps, thanks to their integration with the Tizen operating system. The Samsung QLED series, such as the Q90T and Q80T, are known for their vibrant colors and smooth performance. With these models, you'll have access to the Google Play Store and a plethora of Android apps at your fingertips.

LG is another player in the market that offers Android-compatible digital TVs. Their OLED series, like the CX and BX models, are known for their deep blacks and rich colors. These TVs run on LG's webOS platform, which has its own app store but also supports Android apps. With an LG OLED TV, you'll have access to a wide range of entertainment options, including popular streaming services like Netflix and Hulu.

Once you have identified a compatible digital TV, setting up Android apps is relatively straightforward. Most smart TVs come with an on-screen setup wizard that guides you through the process. You'll need to connect your TV to your home Wi-Fi network, create or sign in with a Google account, and then browse the app store to download your favorite Android apps.

It's worth noting that not all Android apps are optimized for TV screens. Some may not work properly or may have limited functionality when displayed on a larger screen. Therefore, it's important to choose apps that are specifically designed for TVs or have a TV mode available.

To enhance your experience with Android apps on your digital TV, consider investing in additional accessories such as a wireless keyboard or game controller. These accessories can make navigating through apps and playing games much more enjoyable.

In conclusion, unlocking the power of Android apps on your digital TV opens up a world of possibilities in terms of entertainment and convenience. To ensure compatibility, look for smart TVs that support the Android operating system from brands like Sony, Samsung, and LG. Once you have a compatible model, setting up Android apps is a breeze. Just follow the on-screen instructions and start enjoying all your favorite apps right from your couch. Remember to choose apps optimized for TV screens and consider additional accessories to enhance your experience. Happy streaming!

Tata Curvv SUV Unveiled – All Key Features & Launch Details

The much-awaited Tata Curvv has finally been unveiled in its close-to-production avatar for the Indian market. The carmaker says that it merges “the toughness and durability of an SUV with an elegant and sporty silhouette of a Coupe”. It will be the first mass-market coupe SUV from the home-grown automaker that will come with both ICE (internal combustion engine) and electric powertrains.

he electric iteration of the Curvv underpins the brand’s new Acti.ev architecture and features signature split LED headlamp clusters, a new grille with piano black and body color finish, bumper-integrated fog lamps, larger air intake, and a pronounced faux skid plate at the front.

The interior of the coupe SUV will share features with the Harrier and Safari. It will have a 10.25-inch screen setup for the instrument cluster and digital dials, a floating touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a Harrier-like two-spoke steering wheel, Head-Up Display, ventilated front seats, an electric parking brake, wireless charger, connected car features, dual-zone climate control, and a 360-degree camera. The higher trims will be offered with some exclusive amenities such as a panoramic sunroof and Level 2 ADAS tech.

Specifications of the Tata Curvv EV are yet to be revealed. However, the electric SUV is likely to deliver a range of around 450km – 500km. The SUV’s ICE version will use Tata’s new 125bhp, 1.2L, 3-cylinder turbo petrol and Nexon’s 1.5L, 4-cylinder diesel engines. It’s also reported to be offered with a CNG fuel option at a later stage.

The Tata SUV-coupe’s back feels tall and the boot lid is positioned a lot higher than the bonnet, which has likely been done to increase the luggage space on offer (422 litres claimed).

Its key styling detail here is the wraparound and connected LED tail lights. The tall bumper – having a faux skid plate with silver finish at the bottom – mimics the split-headlight setup, which is replaced by the reflectors and reversing lamps here.

Best Android TV Boxes For Streaming in 2023

In the ever-evolving realm of home entertainment, Android TV boxes have emerged as versatile juggernauts of contemporary streaming. These devices have transcended their basic media conduit origins to become multi-functional hubs for immersive content experiences. Picture this: a single device seamlessly blending HD IPTV viewing, gaming thrills, and immersive entertainment. Welcome to the cutting edge of TV streaming, where Android TV boxes redefine how we engage with content.

The days of TV boxes confined to rudimentary functions are long gone. Modern Android TV boxes epitomize versatility. Once connected to your TV, they open portals to a multitude of streaming services, turning your screen into a smart entertainment hub. Services like Netflix and Disney Plus are at your fingertips.

So, you’ve decided to elevate your TV experience with an Android TV box, tapping into the power of the beloved Android operating system. However, navigating through a sea of options can be daunting. With countless Android TV boxes flaunting slight variations in specifications, how do you choose the perfect fit for your needs?

Worry not, as we have meticulously scrutinized the cream of the crop among Android TV boxes, ensuring that you embark on your streaming journey armed with the right information. Whether you’re a cinema buff, a gaming enthusiast, or someone with unique streaming preferences, we have categorized the best options for every taste. Our mission is to guide you not only to the best Android TV box but also to the ideal companion tailored perfectly to your entertainment aspirations.

1.NVIDIA Shield TV Pro

NVIDIA’s Shield TV has reigned as the undisputed king of Android TV boxes, and the Shield TV Pro takes this legacy to new heights. Despite its age, the Tegra X1+ processor delivers exceptional performance, driving AI-enhanced 4K upscaling that genuinely enhances HD picture clarity and color vibrancy on a 4K display. This powerhouse chip also adeptly handles real-time transcoding, allowing seamless streaming of various file formats from a NAS drive. With support for Dolby Vision HDR, Dolby Atmos, and DTS-X surround sound, it solidifies its reputation as an AV powerhouse.

Running on NVIDIA’s customized Google TV OS, you have access to the full array of software on the Google Play store. Plex comes pre-installed, and if you wish to expand beyond the usual suspects like Netflix and Amazon Prime, adding Kodi is a breeze. While the onboard 16GB storage might feel limiting, a simple USB 3.0 external drive upgrade resolves this concern.

Gaming is another forte of the Shield TV Pro. The Tegra X1+ not only handles a plethora of major titles from the Google Play store but also directly streams games from Nvidia’s GeForce Now service. This ingenious feature lets you access your PC games library on your TV, provided the service supports the titles. For those seeking a more streamlined setup, the new Shield TV “stick” might be appealing, as it mirrors the software and wields the same Tegra X1+ chip. Nevertheless, the Shield TV Pro embodies the quintessential Android TV experience.

Pros:

Reliable performance

Excellent remote

Wide variety of native 4K content

Supports Nvidia’s GeForce NOW cloud gaming

Cons:

AI upscaling can be overly aggressive

Controller not included

2.Magabox MG4

The Magabox-MG4 stands as the latest iteration in the Magabox series, pushing the boundaries of convenience and performance. Packed with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, it transforms into a multimedia powerhouse. Its integrated voice command feature ushers in a superior streaming experience, redefining the market. Connect it to your TV and the internet, and witness your standard TV evolve into a smart wonder.

This exceptionally user-friendly Android TV box redefines its predecessor, the MG4, with a revamped design and interface. While its hardware remains steadfast, the revamped design and interface, coupled with superior streaming and DVR capabilities, make it an irresistible choice for streaming enthusiasts. Constant system updates ensure access to the latest features and security enhancements, cementing its place as a dynamic entertainment companion.

Remarkably, the Magabox MG4 remains budget-friendly, maintaining the same price point as the MG4. This commitment to affordability ensures that users can access its advanced streaming capabilities without breaking the bank, making it an even more compelling choice for budget-conscious consumers.

Pros:

User-friendly interface

Built-in apps with voice search support

Stable streaming, especially for sports gaming

Maintains the same price as the previous version

Cons:

Batteries not included in the package

3.Amazon Fire TV Stick (3rd generation)

The base-level Fire TV Stick offers respectable functionality but may leave some users craving more due to its modest 1GB of RAM, quad-core CPU, and limited 8GB of storage. In terms of both hardware and software, the third-generation Fire Stick closely mirrors its predecessor. The primary distinction lies in its slightly updated remote, featuring a Channel Guide button and four app shortcuts for convenient access to region-specific apps like Amazon Prime and Netflix. Impressively, it supports various HDR standards, including Dolby Atmos, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG, making it a solid choice for modern HDR 4K televisions.

For ardent Kodi enthusiasts and those seeking an extra performance boost, investing an additional £10 in the Fire TV Stick 4K Max might be worthwhile. This upgraded version boasts a faster CPU, more RAM, and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, along with robust 4K video support and compatibility with Dolby Vision HDR.

Pros:

Good hardware

Excellent HD antenna

Stunning 4K resolution

Cons:

Non-expandable storage space

4.MINIX NEO U9-H

The MINIX NEO U9-H 64-bit Media Hub for Android delivers swift video playback at an impressive 60fps, enhancing your viewing experience with seamless and razor-sharp 4K visuals. What’s more, it excels in picture quality, thanks to comprehensive HDR10 compatibility.

Leveraging HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology, this media hub broadens the color spectrum, rendering whites brighter and blacks deeper, thereby intensifying contrast for a lifelike and vibrant visual journey. All of these features come in an affordable package, priced under $50 / £50 / AUD$80, making it a budget-friendly choice for value-conscious users.

Pros:

Excellent streaming performance

Versatile

Micro SD slot

Cons:

Lacks a USB 3.0 port

5.Google Chromecast with Google TV (4K)

The Chromecast with Google TV 4K undoubtedly stands among the finest media streaming devices available, a viewpoint we firmly endorse. However, when compared to Android TV boxes, it gracefully concedes the top spot to the NVIDIA Shield TV, known for delivering superior performance across the board. Nevertheless, Google’s Chromecast with Google TV 4K offers an exceptional value proposition, priced at just $49.99.

It’s important to note that when we mention “Google TV,” we are referring to Google’s revamped user interface, while the Chromecast with Google TV continues to operate on the robust Android TV platform, providing access to a comprehensive array of streaming services. Furthermore, it comes complete with Google’s popular Chromecast remote right in the box.

Pros

Affordable price tag

Google TV interface with Google Assistant

dedicated compact remote

Cons

Limited storage

No AV1 codec support

In conclusion, the world of Android TV boxes has evolved to redefine how we experience home entertainment. From the powerhouse NVIDIA Shield TV Pro to the user-friendly Magabox MG4, and the budget-friendly Amazon Fire TV Stick to the vivid visual experiences offered by the MINIX NEO U9-H and the value-packed Google Chromecast with Google TV 4K, there’s a streaming companion tailored to every preference and budget. These devices not only grant access to an array of streaming services but also open doors to gaming thrills and immersive content. The future of streaming is here, and it’s a world of limitless possibilities, all at your fingertips. Whether you seek performance, affordability, or versatility, these Android TV boxes are your gateway to a dynamic and personalized entertainment journey.

Defense Witches Past World 2 - Part 1 (Memu Method)

LINK TO PART 2

Heyo, I JUST MADE A BREAK THROUGH WITH TWO DIFFERENT METHODS TO PLAY PAST WORLD 2

Okay not exactly all the hard work fo this method of getting the game working again goes to Kinac The Frog (@/allforest01) on Youtube who discovered how to play past world 2 + an added bonus :) on Memu (Calling It Memu Method) and DWNicola for sharing their data with Kinac to make this method possible

I would say the Memu method is definetly worth the effort that needs to be put into it for its added bonus with the end result however its also significantly more complicated and takes a lot of time which is why I'm sharing this tutorial with added pictures to make the process easier (and maybe save time not having to watch the programs download in real time in the video)

If you have complications with this method, would rather play the game on mobile devices (android only sorry >_<), or are okay with replaying the whole game with the vanilla experience I would recommend the easy method

EASY METHOD

For those of you who are willing to go through the process I screenshoted the entire process, which came to around 38 screenshots.... this is gonna take a while but... LET DO THIS

Here is the Video

What is Needed?

To begin, I want to specify the tutorial is done on a Windows computer I'm not sure how doing this would work on Mac or how this would work on Apple & Android phones (we are basically emulating a phone)

You will need...

A Computer/Laptop

Memu https://www.memuplay.com/

The App itself: Download either from google play store (from account that had it previously) or an apk

App data Folder: this is provided in the description of the video and was provided by thee DW Nicola (confirmed here sort by newest comment)

X-plorer File Manager: Download from playstore

App Data

This is provided in the description of the video but I'll share it here as well here you will need the app data folder and if your going the apk method an apk to the game is provided here as well

Before Opening Memu

Here is a list of some of the necessary things to have/do before opening Memu for the first time and arguably the easiest part of this whole process (It doesn't get easier T_T)

If your going APK route make sure to have it downloaded before opening Memu

Download the App Data Folder (Should be a zip file)

Extract The Zip File

Setting Up Memu

The video jumps around a bit sometimes stopping in a middle of a step below to download something however to make it easier here is some of the basic setup you may need to do

Open Memu and complete the Download and Installation

Once on home screen click gear on the far right task bar

Enable Root Mode (move the switch to on)

Click Restart Memu

Download the Neccessary Apps (X-plore File Manager and Defense Witches)

Downloading Defense Witches (Play Store Method)

Log into an account with Defense Witches previously downloaded and install

Downloading Defense Witches (APK Method)

You should have the apk already dowloaded onto your computer

Click APK button on the far right

Click on Defense Witches APK to install

Data Transfer

Here is the start of transfering the app data on your computer to the emulator

Open Defense Witches (I'm not sure if you need to fully play the first stage in order for the files to show up or if you can exit right away but I would play through the first level)

Fully Exit and Close Defense Witches (Click Square and slide right + click on x on the top tab)

Open X-plore File Manager

Click on Root File on the left side 

Open the preinstalled File Manager (Inside the tools folder) we aren't using this to change game files. We are only using this to check if transfer of the app data folder is successful.

Click Download Folder

Click Shared Folder

Click on windows button under shared download path

Copy and Paste (or click and drag) the extracted app data folder into the newly open file

When you check back into the preinstalled File Manager it should appear meaning it sucessfully transfered over

Close the pre installed File manager

Reopen X-plore File Manager

Running out of space for the next step (a lot of images very complicated T_T) I'll be continuing this tutorial in part 2 see you then :D

In retrospective, the shift whose culmination we see today seems to be about making hardware more uniform and the system infrastructure less opaque to anyone who isn't a developer.

Looking back as a millennial, I feel like the Gen-X are the most literate computer-wise because they dealt with all the weird pre-Windows systems and physical LAN party setups before the Internet at homes became fast enough to hold online gaming. Still, it's strange to read posts like this as a Millennial who was taught to use a PC in primary school because it was a new thing for the entire generation, and then I had to pass this knowledge on to teach my own parents to send an email and not to panic whenever "my window disappeared".

What I see in my boomer parents is a sort of a mental blockade from engaging with a typical window-based UI, like every time you could literally read something on the menu and click accordingly to perform an unknown activity, my mum has a little meltdown and wants to be taught the activity step by step so she can perform it by muscle memory. The greatest peril of my mum's boomer PC experience is that she doesn't watch what's going on on her screen outside the application in focus, she is not used to interactivity on a basic level, a robust system UI is too much for her because you need to learn to "dwell" in a structure of a certain complexity, you need to get used to the thought that a PC has a massive hidden side among all the nested folders, settings and policies. I think my dad has less problems with using a PC because he had vocational technical education before, he understands mechanical schematics and electrical installation charts and abstract structures of that sort. A classic menu is a little like this.

As a kid, I was taught basics of the structure of a pre-XP Windows system. I was taught a common technique to type using as many fingers as possible, without looking at the keyboard as you do it. I was taught how to use the Office suite, how to build a simple website using the ugliest incarnation of HTML, and how to push it to the teacher's host using a FTP manager. I was even taught basics of programming in one of the code-free visual gamified editors made solely for teaching purposes. All of it to familiarize us with a certain innate logic of software that was norm at the time.

Even as an IT worker nowadays, accessing most things I need on mobile devices as a QA tester is locked behind a hidden procedure of enabling Developer tools, and even then, if you look at the folder structure on the device when accessing it from your PC, the said structure is more code-like and obviously not meant for any end user. Or, I need to use workarounds through third party applications like iTunes to even access some stuff in the first place. iOS is a true nightmare when it comes to trying access the things Apple does not want an average end user to access.

What mostly changed since my childhood is that hardware is becoming uniform to the point building your own PC and setting it up to work is easy and foolproof, and Windows is trying to be quicker in providing some template behaviors and more "transparent" in its inner workings. The mobile device design simplified user experience to the levels of "Go to store, download app, tap and swipe, the system takes care of everything else". At the same time, the systems are more intrusive, and they heavily discourage messing around and finding out. Everything is meant to be done from the status bar, or a popup that appears right at your main screen.

Teaching my parents smartphones was a different experience insofar as notifications and popups from Android keep appearing without their consent, so to speak. They feel like they have no agency over their own phone, all they want is to make a call, the entire device with its apps and ads and intrusive messages is the enemy, and "they don't want IT" (where "IT" is an SMS from the provider, a system update notification, a push notification, information about used data, there's too many icons again, there's too much everything, yada yada). Once they learned the basics of using a laptop to click things on an Internet browser, phones started to be the opposite thing.

So this was originally a response to this post:

****

****

Which is about people wanting an AO3 app, but then it became large and way off topic, so here you go.

Nobody under the age of 20 knows how to use a computer or the internet. At all. They only know how to use apps. Their whole lives are in their phones or *maybe* a tablet/iPad if they're an artist. This is becoming a huge concern.

I'm a private tutor for middle- and high-school students, and since 2020 my business has been 100% virtual. Either the student's on a tablet, which comes with its own series of problems for screen-sharing and file access, or they're on mom's or dad's computer, and they have zero understanding of it.

They also don't know what the internet is, or even the absolute basics of how it works. You might not think that's an important thing to know, but stick with me.

Last week I accepted a new student. The first session is always about the tech -- I tell them this in advance, that they'll have to set up a few things, but once we're set up, we'll be good to go. They all say the same thing -- it won't be a problem because they're so "online" that they get technology easily.

I never laugh in their faces, but it's always a close thing. Because they are expecting an app. They are not expecting to be shown how little they actually know about tech.

I must say up front: this story is not an outlier. This is *every* student during their first session with me. Every single one. I go through this with each of them because most of them learn more, and more solidly, via discussion and discovery rather than direct instruction.

Once she logged in, I asked her to click on the icon for screen-sharing. I described the icon, then started with "Okay, move your mouse to the bottom right corner of the screen." She did the thing that those of us who are old enough to remember the beginnings of widespread home computers remember - picked up the mouse and moved it and then put it down. I explained she had to pull the mouse along the surface, and then click on the icon. She found this cumbersome. I asked if she was on a laptop or desktop computer. She didn't know what I meant. I asked if the computer screen was connected to the keyboard as one piece of machinery that you can open and close, or if there was a monitor - like a TV - and the keyboard was connected to another machine either by cord or by Bluetooth. Once we figured it out was a laptop, I asked her if she could use the touchpad, because it's similar (though not equivalent) to a phone screen in terms of touching clicking and dragging.

Once we got her using the touchpad, we tried screen-sharing again. We got it working, to an extent, but she was having trouble with... lots of things. I asked if she could email me a download or a photo of her homework instead, and we could both have a copy, and talk through it rather than put it on the screen, and we'd worry about learning more tech another day. She said she tried, but her email blocked her from sending anything to me.

This is because the only email address she has is for school, and she never uses email for any other purpose. I asked if her mom or dad could email it to me. They weren't home.

(Re: school email that blocks any emails not whitelisted by the school: that's great for kids as are all parental controls for young ones, but 16-year-olds really should be getting used to using an email that belongs to them, not an institution.)

I asked if the homework was on a paper handout, or in a book, or on the computer. She said it was on the computer. Great! I asked her where it was saved. She didn't know. I asked her to search for the name of the file. She said she already did that and now it was on her screen. Then, she said to me: "You can just search for it yourself - it's Chapter 5, page 11."

This is because homework is on the school's website, in her math class's homework section, which is where she searched. For her, that was "searching the internet."

Her concepts of "on my computer" "on the internet" or "on my school's website" are all the same thing. If something is displayed on the monitor, it's "on the internet" and "on my phone/tablet/computer" and "on the school's website."

She doesn't understand "upload" or "download," because she does her homework on the school's website and hits a "submit" button when she's done. I asked her how she shares photos and stuff with friends; she said she posts to Snapchat or TikTok, or she AirDrops. (She said she sometimes uses Insta, though she said Insta is more "for old people"). So in her world, there's a button for "post" or "share," and that's how you put things on "the internet".

She doesn't know how it works. None of it. And she doesn't know how to use it, either.

Also, none of them can type. Not a one. They don't want to learn how, because "everything is on my phone."

And you know, maybe that's where we're headed. Maybe one day, everything will be on "my phone" and computers as we know them will be a thing of the past. But for the time being, they're not. Students need to learn how to use computers. They need to learn how to type. No one is telling them this, because people think teenagers are "digital natives." And to an extent, they are, but the definition of that has changed radically in the last 20-30 years. Today it means "everything is on my phone."

Transform Your Home Entertainment With XGIMI Ultra Short Throw Projector

Home entertainment has evolved far beyond the traditional television. If you're aiming for a big-screen experience without turning your living room into a tech lab, an ultra short throw projector might be the solution. More specifically, the XGIMI Aura is leading the charge when it comes to combining style, performance, and simplicity.

So how does it work? And why are more people turning to the XGIMI Aura instead of buying another oversized TV?

Let’s break it down.

How Does an Ultra Short Throw Projector Work?

Unlike traditional projectors that need to be placed several feet—sometimes meters—away from the screen or wall, an ultra short throw projector is designed to sit right up against the wall and still produce a massive image.

In the case of the XGIMI Aura, it can project a screen as large as 150 inches from just a few inches away. That means no ceiling mounts, no complicated setup, and no rearranging your furniture.

It uses laser projection technology, which allows for sharp, bright visuals even in rooms with ambient light. This makes it ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, or even home offices that double as media spaces.

Why Choose the XGIMI Aura?

Let’s get into what sets the XGIMI Aura ultra short throw projector apart from other options.

1. It Delivers a True 4K Experience

You’re not just getting a large image—you’re getting 4K UHD resolution with HDR10 support. This means crisp details, rich contrast, and vibrant colors that hold up even during daytime viewing. Watching sports, movies, or gaming takes on a new level of immersion.

2. No Extra Sound System Needed

One of the biggest frustrations with many projectors is poor sound. That’s not a problem with the Aura. It comes with four built-in 15W Harman Kardon speakers that produce rich, full sound.

It supports both Dolby Audio and DTS HD, giving you cinema-like audio without the need for a soundbar or surround system.

3. It’s Ready to Stream Right Away

With Android TV 10.0 built in, you get access to apps like Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, and Prime Video without connecting an extra streaming stick or device. Everything is integrated, and you can control it with your voice using Google Assistant.

4. Eye Comfort Comes Built In

Standard TVs and projectors can strain the eyes over time, especially during long viewing sessions. The Aura reduces this strain by using indirect laser light, which is softer and more comfortable for your eyes. It’s also a safer choice for families with children.

How Easy Is It to Set Up?

You don’t need tools, ceiling mounts, or a technician. The Aura is plug-and-play. Just place it near your wall or projector screen, power it on, connect to Wi-Fi, and you’re good to go.

It also includes automatic keystone correction, so the image aligns perfectly even if the projector isn’t perfectly centered. Focus adjustments can be made with a few clicks.

Why Is the Ultra Short Throw Design a Game-Changer?

People often avoid projectors because of space constraints, complicated setups, or the need for a dark room. The XGIMI Aura ultra short throw projector solves all of that:

Saves space: It sits close to the wall, so it doesn’t interrupt your room layout.

No shadows: You won’t walk in front of the image and block the screen.

Daytime viewing: With 2400 ANSI lumens, it performs well even in bright environments.

Whether you're in a small apartment or a modern open-plan home, it fits without being intrusive.

Who Is the XGIMI Aura For?

If you want to experience movies, shows, and games the way they were meant to be seen—without installing a 100-inch TV—the Aura is for you. It’s ideal for:

Movie lovers who want a true theater vibe at home

Gamers looking for immersive visuals on a big screen

Families needing a screen big enough for everyone

Design-conscious users who want high performance in a sleek package

How Long Does It Last?

The Aura’s laser light source is rated for up to 25,000 hours. That’s years of viewing without needing to replace bulbs or worry about dimming. It also runs cool and quietly, so you won’t be distracted by noise or heat.

Why It’s a Smart Long-Term Investment

Instead of spending money on a large flat-screen TV, external sound system, streaming devices, and mounts, the XGIMI Aura gives you all of it in one. The visual quality, sound, and ease of use are built in—and you don’t sacrifice space or aesthetics to get it.

Plus, it’s energy efficient and low maintenance, meaning you save on electricity and don’t have to deal with repairs or frequent upgrades.

The XGIMI ultra short throw projector brings the best of modern projection into a single, beautifully engineered device. From stunning 4K visuals to premium audio and effortless setup, it checks every box for a complete home entertainment upgrade.

If you're ready to change the way you watch TV and movies, it's time to look beyond the TV screen. The Aura doesn’t just replace your TV—it redefines what a home cinema can be.

Best IPTV Service in USA: Top Streaming Solutions in 2025

In 2025, streaming television has officially overtaken traditional cable TV in the United States. The convenience, affordability, and flexibility of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) have made it the go-to choice for millions of Americans. But with so many providers flooding the market, how do you choose the best IPTV service in the USA? In this comprehensive blog, we’ll dive deep into what makes an IPTV provider worth your investment and why IPTV is the future of home entertainment.

What is IPTV?

IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television. Unlike traditional TV that transmits content through cable or satellite, IPTV delivers television content over the internet. This allows for a more dynamic and personalized viewing experience. You can watch live TV, on-demand content, and even time-shifted programming using a variety of devices, including smart TVs, smartphones, tablets, and streaming boxes like Firestick and Android TV.

Why Choose IPTV in the USA?

With the rise of smart technology and high-speed internet, IPTV has gained massive popularity in the United States. Here are the top reasons why more people are choosing IPTV over cable:

Cost-Effective: IPTV services typically cost a fraction of traditional cable subscriptions.

Flexible Plans: No long-term contracts. Most IPTV services offer monthly, quarterly, and annual plans.

Global Access: Access thousands of channels from across the globe including the USA, UK, Canada, India, and more.

Premium Content: Sports channels, movie packages, news, kids’ channels, and international networks all in one place.

Compatibility: Works on multiple devices—Smart TVs, Firestick, Android & iOS devices, PCs, MAG boxes, etc.

Features to Look for in the Best IPTV Service in USA

Before subscribing, consider the following features that define a top-tier IPTV service:

Channel Variety: Look for a provider that offers 15,000+ live TV channels, including local US networks.

VOD Library: A strong IPTV service should provide 30,000+ video-on-demand options including the latest movies and TV series.

HD/4K Quality: The best IPTV services stream in high definition with minimal buffering.

EPG (Electronic Program Guide): Allows you to see what’s playing now and what’s coming up next.

Multi-Screen Support: Watch on multiple devices at the same time.

Customer Support: 24/7 responsive support for setup and troubleshooting.

Free Trial: Reputable providers offer a 24-hour free trial so you can test before committing.

IPTV and Legal Concerns in the USA

While IPTV is legal, using unlicensed or pirated IPTV services is not. Always ensure that your provider operates legally and respects copyright laws. Look for providers that source content from legitimate broadcasters and have proper distribution rights.

How to Set Up IPTV in the USA

Setting up IPTV is simple:

Choose a Provider: Select a trusted IPTV service (e.g., Call IPTV).

Pick a Plan: Choose the duration and number of connections you want.

Install an IPTV Player: Apps like IPTV Smarters Pro, TiviMate, or GSE Smart IPTV.

Enter Your M3U/Portal URL: Provided after your subscription is confirmed.

Start Streaming: Watch live TV and VOD instantly.

Final Thoughts: Which is the Best IPTV Service in the USA?

The answer depends on your content preferences, budget, and device compatibility. However, if you're looking for a well-rounded IPTV subscription in the USA, Call IPTV is a top contender. With over 18,000 channels, a vast VOD library, HD streaming, and affordable pricing—it checks all the boxes.

Don’t waste money on expensive cable bills. Experience the future of television today with a free IPTV trial and find out why millions of Americans are making the switch.

Windows 11 Home: Pros, Cons, and Hidden Features Explained 

Since its launch, Windows 11 Home has been at the center of Microsoft's vision for a modern, user-friendly OS. While it brings an elegant interface and improved performance, it also sparks debate among users over limitations and missing features compared to the Pro version.  

What Is Windows 11 Home? 

Windows 11 Home is the consumer-focused edition of Microsoft's flagship operating system. It's designed for everyday users who prioritize simplicity, style, and essential productivity tools over enterprise-level features. While it's ideal for students, casual users, and non-technical professionals, it also offers enough performance and security to meet general computing needs. 

Pros of Windows 11 Home 

Windows 11 Home comes with several benefits that make it appealing to a wide range of users. Below are its standout strengths. 

1. Modern and Clean User Interface 

The redesigned Start menu, centered taskbar, rounded corners, and new system animations contribute to a visually polished and user-friendly interface. 

2. Improved Performance and Efficiency 

With better memory management and faster boot times, Windows 11 Home feels quicker and more responsive—even on mid-range hardware. 

3. Integrated Microsoft Store and Android App Support 

Thanks to Amazon Appstore integration, users can now install select Android apps directly onto Windows 11 Home, expanding productivity and entertainment options. 

4. Enhanced Gaming Features 

Gamers benefit from built-in technologies like DirectStorage, Auto HDR, and improved Xbox Game Pass integration, delivering a console-like experience on PC. 

Cons of Windows 11 Home 

While Windows 11 Home is great for most users, it does come with some limitations. 

1. Requires a Microsoft Account for Setup 

Unlike the Pro edition, Windows 11 Home requires a Microsoft account and internet connection during the initial setup, which can be frustrating for privacy-focused users. 

2. Lacks Group Policy and BitLocker 

Advanced management tools like Group Policy Editor and BitLocker encryption are exclusive to Windows 11 Pro, making Home less suitable for power users or small businesses. 

3. Limited Customization for Power Users 

Windows 11 Home restricts access to certain settings and features, making deep customization or system tweaks more difficult without third-party tools. 

Hidden Features in Windows 11 Home You Should Know 

Despite its limitations, Windows 11 Home includes a few lesser-known gems that can significantly improve your user experience. 

1. Dynamic Refresh Rate (DRR) 

On supported displays, DRR allows your screen to automatically switch between 60Hz and 120Hz, balancing performance and battery life—great for laptops. 

2. Snap Layouts and Snap Groups 

An underrated multitasking tool, Snap Layouts let you quickly organize multiple windows on your screen, while Snap Groups remember your layout when you switch between tasks. 

3. Focus Sessions in Clock App 

Perfect for productivity, Focus Sessions integrate with Spotify and Microsoft To Do, helping users stay on track with timed work intervals and task management. 

4. Voice Typing with Auto-Punctuation 

The built-in voice typing feature (Win + H) now includes automatic punctuation, turning spoken words into well-formatted text—a big help for note-taking or quick writing. 

Conclusion 

Windows 11 Home strikes a solid balance between performance, simplicity, and modern design. It’s well-suited for casual users, students, and gamers who don’t need enterprise-level features. However, power users and professionals may find its restrictions limiting. By exploring both the pros and cons, and leveraging hidden features, you can make the most out of Windows 11 Home in 2025.
