    Topic: With the world of technology forever changing, it’s tough for consumers to stay informed enough to make the right decisions about what and when to buy their devices - whether you’re buying a new pc or tv, or you’re getting rid of some older methods of entertainment.

  • Everyday Tech - CLASSIC | Windows 10 Upgrades & FAQs

    Host(s): Abram Nanney and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz)


    Topic: On October 14th of this year – 2025, Microsoft will officially cease offering support for their soon-to-be Legacy operating system Windows 10. This means that they will no longer update the OS which will put devices running Windows 10 at risk for hacks and threat actors. We’ve discussed this on the show previously, but we have failed to mention the solutions available to those who possess older devices that cannot upgrade to Windows 11, nor can they buy a newer device. Don’t toss your laptop just yet, it still can be saved.

  • Everyday Tech | Convenience or Privacy

    Host(s): Abram Nanney and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz)


    Topic: A few weeks ago, we had a listener call in concerned about his personal information being accessed after an ad popped up with his private data filled in. This prompted a discussion about the autofill features that most devices have natively, and brought up whether the convenience of this feature outweighed the privacy risks associated with it. Turns out, a lot of smart device features can be viewed in that same light: convenience vs. privacy, so let’s talk about some of them.
