    All Devices Switch Pro Controller/Joycon Support

    I was wondering if anyone else may hope for this support now that we have PS4 and XB1 S controller support in iOS13/tvOS. I know Nintendo previously shied away from playing nice, but since Mario Run it seems like they might be more interested in pushing mobile more. Is this something people...

    HomeKit Garage Door Opening By Itself

    I have a HomeKit garage door opener from Insignia that I bought on Black Friday sale last year. It had a lot of problems at first and bricked itself, but the newer device with the newer firmware seems to be running okay now. But I'm wondering—is it possible for a geofence to incorrectly detect...

    Home Wemo/Ring Integration Help

    So I recently bought a pack of Wemo mini outlet switches because they announced HomeKit support. Well, that was a bit premature as I'm still waiting for the update, but another reason why I was waiting for Wemo is the integration with Ring (which has been promising HomeKit for ages). In the Ring...

    HomeKit accessing non-smart but automatic blinds through homekit / arduino

    What the title says, basically. I have pre-installed automated blinds that work with 2 switches, up and down. Is it possible to install an arduino or a pi and enable them for homekit? Has anyone done this or heard of / seen such DIYs? Whenever I search for it all that comes up are...

    I just quit Apple...

    After waiting for WWDC in hopes of a decent hardware update, I just couldn't do it anymore. I found a machine with really great specs, easily upgradeable, and that has been performing like a beast for me. My work is primarily video distribution, so I help editors a lot. I love FCPX, but I also...

    Switching CPU tray from Mac Pro 2010 to Mac Pro 2012

    I just bought a Mac Pro 2010 12 core. The CPU tray looks like this: I was wondering if i could put it into my Mac Pro 2012 which is a 6 core. I am a video editor and i figured it would give me more RAM and make it run faster for editing. Am i able to do this? What problems would it cause?

    iPhone 8/Plus Best way to switch from iPhone (with upgrade program) to Pixel?

    I got my iPhone 8+ in November or October as part of the Apple Upgrade program. I pay around $45 a month for this (instead of buying the phone outright) which is supposed to be for 24 months. I really want to switch to a Pixel 2 XL ASAP. What's the best option for doing this? I know I can cancel...

    Stardew Valley

    Stardew Valley just came out on Switch. I don't have experience/interest in this genre, but when I see so many positive reviews, it makes me want to give it a shot. Has anyone here played on other consoles, and had a good/bad experience?

    How do I add a device before router on network?

    I have a setup at work where the computer is in the office and the ethernet plugs into the wall. From there it runs in the walls across the building to another location. I just got a security camera system that requires the hard drive to be plugged into the computer and the router. The router...

    Games you would like to see ported to the Switch

    Realistically, i think the Switch *should* be able to handle PS3/XB360 games. I think the Switch presents a unique opportunity for games which didn't see much success on their primary platforms, maybe because the platforms didn't do very well to begin with. What games, from any platform, would...

    Those of us trying to find a Switch...

    Hey folks. I decided the night before the Switch launch that I want one (or want Zelda, in particular), and so I am trying to acquire a unit. I'm hoping this can be a back and forth with others trying to do the same, as far as suggestions as to who is getting shipments and when, etc. I'm in...

    Ringer Sounds Even When Phone Is On Silent

    On my iPhone 7 Plus, the ringer sounds the ringtone even with the switch flipped to silent. This happens consistently, and restarting hasn't solved the issue.

    Carrier Sprint iPhone 7 & 7 plus NOT compatible with Verizon?

    So I have an unlocked 7+ from the upgrade program and, after 20+ years of horrible signal at home with Sprint, decided to switch to Verizon. I was shocked to be told by Verizon that currently they are not able to connect Sprint iPhone 7/7+'s due to an incompatibility issue. I told the rep that...
