New Show Added! “The Great Yawn” or Can They Make it Any Smaller!?

For this Weeks TechtalkRadio Show, Broadway, Shawn DeWeerd, Justin and Andy take a look at some changes Shawn made to the ATEM Mini from Black Magic Design and how the software for the Unit can give some added features he gives us a look at in the Video posted to the Blog and Website. Andy has wanted to do a segment on KMSB Fox 11 on Mini Form factor computers. Andy tells us about reaching out to MinisForum to take a look at the Mini Desktop only to be told by PR, go buy one! With the budget on the show he then reached out to Zotac which also produces Mini Desktop computers. The Marketing wizards responded with some questions which Andy answered and…They disappeared, never responding. Disappointed Andy decided to buy a Mini Desktop and went ahead and bought the ACE PC T11. A Mini Form Factor PC running Windows 10, Andy talks about the T11 and some of the reasons he is glad he went with this unit. Upgradability on the Storage, 4 USB, Wi-Fi, Ethernet Port, MicroSD Slot, Included HDMI Cable and a VGA port are just a few of the reasons, the pricing was only at $140!

Check out Our Beginning Segment from This Weeks Show

The guys talk about the difference between the Raspberry PI Micro Computer and the Mini Form Factor in the Ace PC T11. Cnet shared a story about the Brave Browser and how many users are beginning to take a look at the features on this free browser. Shawn told us about this a few weeks ago and answers some questions regarding the ad and track blocking browser. Many users have been searching for info on Corona Virus, Covid-19 and that has opened up non reputable sites with disinformation and to get malware on users systems. Broadway reminds us to be careful with Vanity Websites. Andy reminds us the website for the CDC is CDC.Gov.

The guys talk about the Plex Server and while the service makes it possible to have many features Shawn talks about the downsides of connecting from Outside the Network. A Big question on digital privacy is opened up and Justin at this point has pretty much said maybe we are too concerned. The Guys play a round of Name That Term with Justin asking the guys to find the answer to the acronym, A Fun Segment! Just hearing Broadways frustrations is memorable!

For our Website of the Week, Justin shares with the guys a site they didn’t know about and are super happy to hear it is on the Web. Gary Larson the man behind the Far Side has never really embraced the web and is now sharing his funny looks at life at https://www.thefarside.com

Video Segment Featuring the ACE PC T11 Mini PC

For this Segment we took a look at the latest in Desktop Computers. It’s about going smaller. Mini PC’s have been talked about for years and even Shuttle Computers made smaller form factor PC’s yet they were still a ways from being Mini. Considering the price and power between some of the new smartphones, The Galaxy S20 has more memory you may find in some laptops, 8GB or 12GB! We will see that trend continue.

In the past year we have seen lots of articles about building your own Mini PC’s or buying them from Manufacturers, The Raspberry Pi is a small system that can be built set on Linux with a lot of different configurations. Apple also has had a powerful minicomputer known as the MacMini, like most of the Apple products they are great but also come with a sizeable price tag.

We learn of a study done on Ransomware and systems, the numbers are surprising. Acronis True Image 2020 has many features which can be automated or even customized for more regular or in depth backups of the Data. Always a Great interview, Gaidar talks about some great stories about data save with Acronis True Image. Upgrading to a Larger Hard Drive or SSD, the Program also makes it easy for this process.

The guys talk about computers and technology geared at the Senior User. Over the years we have seen tablets for senior users with custom interfaces and now full pc computers running Linux which easily handle functions. Andy talks about the differences between a Laptop and the computer being offered by a company with high price tab and less the favorable specs. Shawn shares his honest feelings of one of these computers offered. Andy talks about Companies which are building systems and could continue with a good customer base by offering instruction with the sale of a system.

Guy Caught On Owlcam

A Recent Car Break-In caught a burglar and the look of Surprise on his face is Priceless! The Owner of the Vehicle commented her satisfaction of the dashcam which helped to prevent the stealing of items from the vehicle.

I love the Owlcam, it is such great peace of mind to know your vehicle is protected even when you aren’t nearby! If you download the Free Owlcam App from the App Store you can see other instances of the OwlCam catching not only break in’s but also situations on the road while driving.

The OwlCam Dashcam works with an always On 4G LTE interface, the first year is free with the purchase of the Owlcam and then an Annual subscription after that. For the Constant power the OwlCam connects to the vehicles OBDII Port.

We featured the OwlCam Dashcam in a segment on KMSB Fox 11, See Below.
