Article: How Email Can Enhance Your Productivity

Here is a great article, that actually promotes the benefits of email; even though it's been popular to demonize it lately. Email is still the top digital productivity tool available today.

The Printer Test Page used to actually have a 4-color Windows logo on it. Now @Microsoft decided to "upgrade" that to black and cyan only. How is this a better "test"??

Will @Apple PLEASE add MOUSE support to iOS? You should be able to plug a mouse into an iPhone or iPad, just like you can on any Android device.

@torsaaan @howtogeek Great suggestion - thank you @torsaaan! However, there's got to be a FREE alternative for this. The company that does it should be able to [anonymously] leverage some value from this (like what sites are truly most popular) using the data they would aggregate and facilitate, no?

@VimeoStaff That's nice that Speed Control a [remote] possibility, IF a paying-creator remembers to manually enable it. But it OFF by default, and not USER controlled. If @vimeo wants to compete with YT, you need to step it up; and empower the USER's Playback options with Speed Controls.

@littlecaesars Your mobile app NEEDS IMPROVEMENT! [1] It should at least remember my username. [2] And be able to use TouchID for my password. [3] It should remember my local store!!

Thank you @howtogeek for publishing Shutting Down Doesn’t Fully Shut Down Windows 10 (https://t.co/YKXMA7VfFl), So @Microsoft needs to rename this to Suspend or something other than "Shutdown". It's misleading and wrong.

@WatchVRV You need to make a way to add Captions (hotkey C) and a way to SpeedUp your videos, if you want to compete with YouTube.

Realtime Death Toll

Are "guns" really the biggest threat we face in America today?
Evidence suggest otherwise, contrary to media focus...

Please @Microsoft just STOP IT with the "Consumer Experience" and forcing games and unnecessary apps onto people that PAY for your "Professional" OS! This is ridiculous. https://t.co/OUNxHUeDio

Why didn't @Apple add their calculator as a native iWatch app? Really, a $350 watch that doesn't have a calculator??

How To LOCK a PC via Command Line

Sometimes you want a PC to Boot-up, Login, then Lock itself.

It's not obvious how to get it to do that.

Sure you could Log-OUT or Shutdown, but those are helpful options.

You want the PC to Lock local access, but continue on with the tasks you had set it about upon boot-up.

Here's the command you need:

…\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation


Thanks to here for this tip!

The ONLY negative about @MyStraightTalk is that they Block the ability to Hotspot with my iPhone. Please fix this ASAP. We pay for the Data, we should be able to use it however we want (on the phone or a laptop).

Hi @SGgrc You mentioned Signal on the Desktop recently on SN, have you also tried Telegram? It's open-source and available on nearly every OS/mobile system. I'd be interested to hear your take on @telegram, Steve and @leolaporte!

In @HowToGeek's article https://t.co/74b7EUCOmy You should have also offered @Telegram as a wi-fi calling option. It works GREAT for this!!

Algorithmically generated ring tones.
All unique. 
Some interesting math here too.
