Did you know there is a Windows app that can run Android? One of them is called NoxPlayer and it’s an Android Emulator for the PC. You can pretty much install any Android game or app right on your Windows computer. I’ve been testing and using the NoxPlayer for Android apps and I found it […]
It’s been several years since I purchased the Xiaomi Roborock and I’ve never replaced the filter until just recently. You can purchase the Roborock replacement kit for only $30 and it includes the main brush, side brushes and replacement washable filters.

I was a bit annoyed at YouTube for doing this but what happened was that my most popular YouTube video that was published around 5 years ago was tagged as a YouTube Shorts.

If you want to run multiple operating systems such as Linux, Android, Windows, WebOS or MacOS then using VirtualBox is the tool you need to use. There are other tools I’ve used in the past such as Virtual Machine from VMWare but VirtualBox does the job quite nicely. Especially when there are VirtualBox images already […]
If you’re like me and accumulated Xiaomi products over the years, you would have experienced the issue of having to set up different devices on the global China server and then having to switch to your local country server for devices that are only compatible within your country.

At Advertise Me, we’ve been using the Intel NUCs with the vPro technology for our digital signage players. The main reason why we decided to use these players is because they have a remote KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) feature so if you get the blue screen of death in Windows or you simply want to […]

The Garmin VIVOFIT JR battery generally lasts for 1 year and you generally don’t get any warning on the watch when the battery dies.

I’ve finally managed to monetise my Skopioeye YouTube channel. I first started the channel back in 2012 and at the time there was no such thing as YouTube channel requirements – ie 1000 subscribers and 4000 hours of watch time in 12 months. There are also some new ones now such as having the account […]
