With Helloween approaching, it proves that more and more people are attracted to the "Daddy's lil' monster" T-shirt made iconic by DC Comics' Harley Quinn character. What is interesting is that the logo is actually copyrighted,...

Luci CJ Indeed, the designs are quite different. Actually, most counterfeit phones will try to replicate the iPhone's design, even though they use Samsung model codes in order to pop up higher when googling about them.

It appears in the past 10 years mobile phone connectors have changed no less than three times: - Some of the phone manufacturers of 2005-2006 started giving up proprietary connectors in favor of the same Mini-USB connector used on...

Luci CJ Apple is the only major phone manufacturer which didn't adhere to the USB industry standard. Instead, they are using the Lightning connector, designed solely by their company.

A couple of weeks ago, a prankster released a Youtube video showing how you can make a headphone jack for the iPhone 7: take a drilling machine and bore a hole in the lower-left side of the phone. The video was obviously a spoof,...

Luci CJ I'm not sure why, but there are plenty of tests in which phones are abused on Youtube, like dropping the phone from different heights, or freezing it in Coke, or trying to scratch it with a chisel.

I don't have a cell phone. Can't afford it and have a land line phone as a part of my cable bundle. Only pay about $20 a month for it. So, that being said-- I know there are many members who do have cell phones. I am reading a...

Luci CJ Do you mean the Blackberry device President Obama was famous for using? While they aren't exactly free, the older Blackberry devices running BBOS 7 and 10 are way cheaper than they were in their glory days. For instance, you may get a 9810 released back in...

It often happens that the most frequent discussions among photographers don't concern composition styles, tricks for better images or elements of art critique, but their sole topic is gear. And when I mean gear, I mean investing...

Luci CJ Guess the situation you describe is becoming increasingly frequent: with pro cameras getting larger and larger, it becomes pointless of carrying them around if all you want is to take some pictures from a day's stroll or from meeting some friends.

Luci CJ A pretty good used DSLR isn't really expensive: you could get a beginners' model like a Nikon D3100 or Canon 1100D in pretty good shape (meaning below 40,000 shutter actuations, for a camera designed to last at least 100,000), between 150 and 200 dollars. To...

I've been watching some Youtube videos on Bitcoin mining. From what I understood, basically you are paid for letting your computer perform some hash calculations while it otherwise would be idle. Depending on the Bitcoin...

Luci CJ I agree, about three years ago I remember a bitcoin was some $200. Sounds good, provided the upward trend preserves itself.

Luci CJ Hmm... I see there are the ASICS machines, far better than the PCs. This would explain why the youtuber I saw made so little money in a whole week of letting his PC online mining bitcoins. What would be interesting would be if it were possible to calculate...

Stores may keep selling older models of phones long after they have been replaced by newer models - sometimes at heavily discounted prices. iPhone 5S, Samsung Note 4, HTC M8S were great phones about a couple of years ago and they...

Luci CJ Guess you are right, especially since Android Lollipop no longer allows apps to write directly to the SD card. So the internal memory becomes far more valuable, as most apps will only be able to write there and not on the external storage (it isn't without a...

Luci CJ Well, most people know very little about politics and state affairs. Given they get most information from TV, it is television shows and moderators that shape their thinking.

Luci CJ @anana1387 I know people who earned money from Facebook. But it's a little more difficult. You need to enroll in an affiliate program to promote different online stores; then, you purchase advertisements on Facebook, based on keywords, people's interests and...

Luci CJ @Jackalyn What I would advise you (or, respectively him) in this case would be to disable notifications (or Push Notifications, as Apple calls them) for the apps that annoy him. Additionally, on Android phones you may disable syncing altogether, so the phone...
