I have a Kyocera ECOSYS P5026cdw and it does everything I want from a colour laser printer. 3rd party toners work fine. TBH, I would not touch any modern HP product with a 100ft pole and that comes from someone who spent years working for the old H…

And for those countries that do not have 'Government ID'? What then? Not everyone here has a driving license or a passport so what then? So glad that I never got sucked into Facebook, Twitter, and the rest.

Google will NOT be getting rich on my IOS searches. I probably search for something on my phone/iPad once a month. On my MacBook, all of Google is blocked unless a site demands it. In those cases, I enable it on a temporary basis thanks to Little Sn…

I was thinking about investing in Homekit but if there was one thing that would turn me away from it forever, that would be it in a nutshell. If Apple implements this then you can count me out forever investing in any home automation system which is…

Almost every Ad break here in the UK on FreeSat over the Christmas/New Year period contained an ad for Paramount+. I guess it didn't bring in the numbers they'd hoped. Now... if only the endless ads for a certain alarm company were to go away I'd b…

Microsoft is just following the [cough][cough] excellent example set by Google and to a lesser extent, Twitter. Google is a classic case of throw all sorts of ideas at a wall and see what sticks after a few years. If something has stuck but has not …

This is a legally approved Bank holiday. Lots and lots of retailers (inc Harrods, Aldi and many more) are following suit and closing for the day. Holidays like this are generally included in your pay. Those with zero hour contracts may not receive a…

No touchID means no sale for me. Using faceID when wearing a full face crash helmet is not a good experience. Removing a single glove is far quicker than removing the whole helmet. When Apple eventually gets around to under screen TouchID then I'll…
