It’s Now Easier to Use Your Xbox Controller to Type on Windows 11
Typing with a keyboard is second-nature to most of us at this point. Typing on a game controller, however, is not. For as long as I’ve played games, I’ve loathed having to slowly hover my on-screen cursor over each key with a joystick. It just isn’t fun. It seems Microsoft agrees with the challenges of […]
The Threat Facing Real Estate Investors Today and Why Tenants Should Be Treated as Clients

You Can Remove DRM From Your Digital Books, but It’s Probably Illegal
When Amazon stopped letting us download copies of our Kindle books last month, I began looking for ways to preserve e-books and audiobooks that I’ve paid for.

13 of My Favorite Ways to Revive Leftovers
Leftovers can be challenging. Occasionally, you’ll have a meal so good that you actually look forward to scarfing it down cold the next day, but that’s not always the case. I usually have bits and bobs of leftovers—things I didn’t care for in the first place, or stray ingredients I can’t seem to get rid […]
For Years, Apple’s Password Manager Had a Major Security Flaw
While Apple has offered password management solutions for years, it was only this past fall that the company finally rolled out a dedicated passwords app, appropriately named “Passwords.” It’s a bit basic, but it’s built into the OS, and it gets the job done.

Use This App to Send Someone a File Without Using Any Cloud Storage
Quick: Send me a large file. Even today, decades after a famous comic about this exact problem, it’s not necessarily simple.
