Purchased Surface Pro 8 today, as an Apple user, was this a good purchase for a first device?

Hello fellow Surface users, I am just interested in any thoughts on my purchase that was made today. I went to a local Buy/Sell/Trade electronics store called Disc Replay that I am CONSTANTLY checking in on for new items being sold and they had this Surface Pro 8, certified refurbished that went through whatever repair and came back from Microsoft itself which is always more reassuring in my expe...

Flight Instructor Glider (Added Rating) AFG

Has anyone taken the AFG written exam recently? I’m trying to figure out whether I need an endorsement or not. It just seems odd that you need an endorsement for AFG but not FIG. https://www.faa.gov/training\_testing/testing/testing\_matrix

Electronics Store?

Does anyone know of or run a small electronics store or a place that sells surplus electronic supplies? trying to find a power supply for a typewriter but not have to order one. I'd rather pick-up locally! TIA!

Help identify the cartridge

I found an old functional Sansui FR-D35 in the trash and salvaged it with some contact spray. I have no idea what to set the tracking force to because I can’t identify the cartridge. The dude from the electronics store guessed that it’s an old variant of Shure M75 manufactured with a different model name but I found no proof for that online when googling the photo or the model name M750E (only...

Bad WiFi performance on iPad/VisionOS

\*Primarily related to Vision Pro. Posted here because the issue seems also affecting iPadOS\* For the last few days, I have been tinkering with my network to squeeze out the best performance for ALVR. For a long time, I thought my WiFi performance was limited by my crappy WiFi adapter on my PC, as it's just a random $20 adapter I bought at my local electronics store. However, I took the same ...

Bad WiFi performance on Vision(iPad)OS

​For the last few days, I have been tinkering with my network to squeeze out the best performance for ALVR. For a long time, I thought my WiFi performance was limited by my crappy WiFi adapter on my PC, as it's just a random $20 adapter I bought at my local electronics store. ​However, I took the same test on my Android phone and my MacBook Air. I found out the performance is totally normal...

Chinese Electronic Store Find

been getting into mag safe heavy lately

part of my “going insane in the ai era” suite of psychological coping mechanisms. i was really confused yesterday cause i bought some cheap chinese magsafe stuff at a local store and it was all absolutely garbage. and this surprised me because prior to last night i had obtained 100% of my magsafe gear from m and alibaba. i was trepidatious at first as most would be after living under firehouse...

The electronics store where I work

This is what I saw when I turned off the backlights at the store where I work, as we were closing. And the store I work at is very old by today's standards; it hasn't undergone any renovations, visual updates, or product updates.

Which iPad?

Hello I've been an iPhone user for years and currently have an iPhone 17. I'm very happy with it, especially compared to my previous iPhone 15 😬. I've been wondering for a while now which iPad would be right for me? I would use the iPad for streaming and internet research. I checked out the new iPad 11 and the new iPad Air at an electronics store, and I have to say the Air impressed me wit...

Aftermarket laptop battery questions of a (maybe overly) cautious person

Hi there, I know that batteries can be fire hazards if you have a bad quality one, use very aged ones, or abuse them. Back in ~2013, my parents bought an Asus r704vc, that they used until recently. I gave them my old 7th gen probook to stay win 11 compatible, and wanted to turn the old one into a home server with the battery as a built-in nas. However, a 13 year old battery is not exactly somet...

Aftermarket batteries, is the one I picked a viable option?

The Living Doomsday Clock

My friend made a joke, and it gave me an idea. So here is another short story for you! Wrote this after finishing up two chapters for my longer form book "Within The Cradle" :D. This one feels a bit silly, but it's a fun exercise. \[-\*-\] My super power is I can see the day someone is destined to die. Watching the Times Square crowd in New York City was always a sobering experience....

Stranger Things The Shadows Of The Mind Flayer Episodes 2, 3 and 4 Season 6

Roadsides at the Mall

I’m a newish rural player trying to get more variety, so today I went to the mall and walked laps around it, inside and out. On the detector I saw all kinds of cool Pikmin types - electronic store, clothing store, restaurant, makeup, bakery, cinema- the things that are in our mall. However, I walked about 7500 steps, planting flowers the whole time, and all I got to pop for seedling expeditions ...
