    No direct iPhone faxing exists. Use third-party apps like Fax.Plus or eFax. They convert your file into a fax signal and send it over. Some charge per page, others by subscription.

    I’ve seen ATP used in two main ways: 1) “At This Point,” which is the most common, especially when people are venting or summarizing a situation. 2) “Answer The Phone,” mostly when someone is annoyed you’re not picking up. If your friend texted “ATP, just be honest,” that’s definitely the first meaning. Slang can shift with communities, so always look at the context. In everyday texting, assume it’s shorthand for “At This Point.”

    Toggle on “Protect your Tweets” in Privacy settings. This locks your account so only approved followers see your content. Old tweets lock too, but existing followers don’t need to re-request.

    Just toggle iMessage on under Settings > Messages. Sign into Apple ID if prompted. Needs Wi-Fi or cellular data. If it doesn’t activate right away, restart your phone or recheck your Apple ID.

    Chromebooks hide this behind a flag. Go to chrome://flags, enable “Debugging keyboard shortcuts,” restart, then press Search + Shift + T. That disables the touchscreen. Do it again to re-enable. I use it when my screen glitches from fingerprints—it stops ghost touches. The touchpad and keyboard aren’t affected, only the touch layer. No need for developer mode, and you can undo it anytime. Super handy if you mostly use your Chromebook like a laptop instead of a tablet.

    Resetting AirPods restores them to factory defaults by erasing paired device memory and refreshing firmware communication. The process—holding the setup button until the LED cycles amber to white—reinitializes Bluetooth parameters, resolving desynchronization, audio dropouts, and pairing errors. Users must reestablish pairing after reset, but this action typically extends usability and aligns with Apple’s device management design.

    A factory reset restores an iPhone to its default system state by erasing all user data, applications, and settings. This process ensures the device is cleared of personal information, mitigating security risks before resale or reassignment. Users should first back up data and disable iCloud’s Find My iPhone feature. The reset is executed via Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone.

    Instagram’s active status operates as a real-time presence indicator, reinforcing synchronous communication and immediacy. While this promotes responsiveness, it also creates social pressure. Disabling the feature through privacy settings grants users greater autonomy, though it eliminates reciprocal visibility. This trade-off reflects broader digital well-being practices, where individuals balance connectedness with boundaries.

    Windows provides multiple screenshot methods: PrtScn captures the entire screen to the clipboard, Alt+PrtScn copies the active window, while Windows+Shift+S opens Snip & Sketch for partial captures. Windows+PrtScn saves full-screen images directly to the Pictures folder. These built-in tools illustrate Microsoft’s layered approach, balancing quick access with user control.

    Post when your people are awake lol. For me it’s like 10 AM or 9 PM. Anything in the middle of the day flops. Just test and see.

    When I first subscribed to Snapchat Plus, I thought Best Friend Planets were just a gimmick. But then I noticed they actually reflected my chat habits. My best friend ended up being Mercury, which made sense since we snap every single day. Another close friend was Mars, and I realized we had been talking less recently. It was kind of funny — my cousin got upset because she was “only” Jupiter on my list. I had to explain it doesn’t mean I don’t care, just that Snapchat tracks frequency of interaction. Honestly, it gave me a new perspective. I started putting more effort into reconnecting with people who had drifted to the outer planets. It’s not perfect, but it does show who you spend most of your time with on the app. For me, it became a little reminder of where my energy goes socially.

    Just block ’em lol. Takes 2 seconds. Hit the three dots on their page → Block. They’re gone, can’t see your stuff, can’t bug you. Easy.
