Need a 1080p monitor recommendation for my PC and ps4

Posted by kadahoola on 6/24/17 at 8:43 pm

what's the best 1080p monitor I can get for under $500.

needs to have an HDMI input

Also, not sure what screen size would be best. Bigger would be better, but not sure if that compromises the 1080p display quality

any advice would be appreciated

Trying to delete an old youtube account. help needed

Posted by kadahoola on 6/22/17 at 2:27 pm

Got a youtube account that's about 10 years old. It's got some old school project videos and stuff on it that I would like to take down.

I do not remember the password to the account as I have not logged on in years. I cannot recover the password as the email address under which its linked was an old college email that is no longer active (the university deactivated it after I graduated).

Is there anything I can do to get access to the account or get the videos taken down or are they just going to be floating around on youtube forever.

What kind of bug is this?

Second one of these I've found in my bathroom in past month. Looked everywhere online and can't seem to find exactly what it is. Not very fast and seemed hesitant to fly. About the size of a fingernail, not fist-size as seen in image.

It's also got kind of a flat torso. flatter than a house fly if you were to compare.

With that said it the best phone I have ever owned and oxygen IMO is better than stock android.

How did you adjust to not having a fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone coming from the 5x?

I feel like my next phone has to have a sensor on the back bc im so used to the 5x.

That's about how old mine is. My friend has a 6p that he loves and I was tempted to swap my 5x for one, but I don't think you can buy them new anymore and I have reservations about buying a used phone that's >2 years old b/c that's when batteries go to shite

best SMS app for android?

Posted by kadahoola on 4/16/17 at 6:26 pm

I've been using Hangouts, but apparently the SMS is being phased out from it.

I'm not a fan of my phone's default messenger app.

new cell phone-should I go 5.5" screen or bigger?

Posted by kadahoola on 3/4/17 at 3:18 pm

I've been getting headaches whenever I read stuff on my phone (currently on a 5.2" screen). I'm pretty sure its due to the size of the screen as I do not get headaches when using my ipad mini. I also got headaches when reading my old phone (5" screen)

when I read my phone in landscape it helps with the headache, but I cant stand not having more of the webpage in front of me without scrolling.

just curious if anyone else had this problem and had success switching to particular screen size

What's the best deal you guys have seen on a nexus 5x so far?

What is a good price point I should be looking at for a new 5x once the new phones come out?

I understand this and location does not really matter me. The main thing I am concerned with is facilities and quality of education. I wasn't expecting this to be a decision I would have to make. I always assumed NO was a no-brainer, but I came away liking Shreveport more than I thought I would. I'm just thinking that if I choose shreveport I may end up regretting it with all the upgrades and expansions in New Orleans.

NO. The only reason you should go to Shreveport is if you think you could place higher in the class and get a better residency.

A less competitive class population was one of my reasonings, but board scores are what matter most and I think I would do well atleast in the upper 50% in either school

LSU med students, advice needed

Posted by kadahoola on 11/13/14 at 6:20 pm

I have been accepted into both LSU-NO and LSU-S medical schools and I'm considering going to Shreveport over NO. I felt slightly more comfortable there (not that I didn't feel comfortable at NO) and liked the smaller class sizes and a systems based curriculum seems more appealing. However, I feel like it would be a mistake to choose shreveport over new orleans given NO's superior facilities and new hospitals that are will be completed in time for my class. I am interested in any insight or advice that current students or graduates have to offer.

So its a black screen that says no bootable devices found.

when i start it up holding option, I get 2 icons. I can load up the normal ios, or i can load up time machine

If I load up ios, it goes back to the black screen and says no bootable device found

if I load up time machine, it works but loads up to that saved state.

problem with macbook pro retina on startup. help

Posted by kadahoola on 10/29/14 at 6:03 pm

Bought the laptop about 1.5 years ago. I 95% of the time just close it to sleep when not in use. Rarely shutdown or updated.

The other week I finally tried to restart it and when it loaded up it was just a black screen that said no bootable device found. I had to startup holding the command key and load up using time machine. This has happened twice now. I am now just putting it to sleep and have been avoiding any updates or restarts. Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to fix this problem.
