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.

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.

Here is a good online and free typing tutor to try out:

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!

Hat's off to @Apple for how they are addressing the battery/slow-down problem in 2018 with new Battery Health meter, and -$50 off battery replacements for older phones!

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!
