Asus Zenbook Duo 14 and Fedora Linux

I spend most days sitting in front of my desk working, where I have a desktop computer with larger display. It's a great setup that helps me be productive. The past few months I have been thinking of finding a laptop to accompany my main setup, to allow me to

The GPD Win Max

I have always had a soft spot for (near-)pocketable devices that –successfully or otherwise– punch above their weight. From the pre-smartphone Pocket PCs days, to the short-lived UPCs and UMPCs, there have always been companies trying to bravely attempt to pack a tremendous amount in an as small as

Denon DL-110 Phono Cartridge

I have been using an Ortofon 2M Red cartridge that came stock with the Pro-Ject RPM 1.3 "Genie" record player for about three or four years now. While it did well and certainly better than the heavily used second hand cartridge and needle I had before it, I was

Video: Native Bluetooth and WiFi on a Hackintosh

Today I'm installing a WTXUP TX-AC94360 PCIe card, which has a Broadcom BCM94360CD chip, for native Bluetooth and WiFi support on the Hackintosh I built not too long ago for home work usage. The process is easy enough, and this particular card is natively supported by macOS, so it works

Video: Speed Box S Unboxing, Review & Motor hum Reduction Test

I had purchased the Speed Box S in an attempt to reduce the very noticeable hum that comes from Pro-Ject's record player motor. As an added bonus it would, as the product name implies, also be easier for me to put on a 45rpm record, as it saves me from
