Displayport Monitors to Macbook Air Hello! I am trying to help my friend connect some monitors she got to her Macbook. The monitors have display ports and dvid ports in the back. I am using a displayport to HDMI cable for the monitor, and then plugging that into an adaptor from HDMI to usb c I have tried both cables, verified that the adaptor for the Macbook has power, tried a second adapter, and made sure the source on the monitors is set to displayport. Note that the monitors both turn off after selecting... 5 1 replies
My external drive is always magically used by some non existant app when I want to eject it It’s grinding my nerves. 80% of the time I want to eject my external SSD, after closing everything that could be using files on it, I get this stupid message saying « an app » is using it. NO APP IS USING IT. Not even finder. I always try to force finder to close and it still doesn’t work. And how does finder prevent me from ejecting the drive anyway??

I had an actual real life use for iPhone mirroring today. I'm on the couch with my Macbook, with my dog asleep next to me. Streaming Netflix from my phone to the tv. My movie ends and my phone is too far away to reach without waking my girl, what on earth do I do? Then I remember! I mirrored my iPhone, went into Netflix, found Rush Hour 2 and BAM, back in business. My laziness reached a whole new level today. 1 8 replies
Founders How to Learn to Sell? Founders of startups: How do you Sell better? I have sold a little but struggled to make it a process. a. I cannot handle the endless follow ups, b. I tend to not do the essential wining and dining cultivating necessary to chase a big deal (I simply don't have the time or funds given the startup), c. I don't take 10 rejections a day very well - it spoils my day. It annoys and demotivates me that Sales only becomes more as a Founder. But I have to... 1 3 replies

Gotta say this. It doesnt matter if one likes Karanveer or not/think he's the worst contestant ever BUT the fact is : He has the most contribution this season. The only one who had an arc with almost everyone. Comedy, drama, fight, tasks, relationships. So he deserves to be the winner. Technically. Same as title. The season might be a complete flop but he's the least flop of the floppest contestants. The most content derived from him, given by him. Its not even an opinion. It is a fact. And if BB didnt want that, they shouldnt have used him that way either. 2 11 replies
Progressively feeling negativity towards someone We all dislike someone or the other, after all we are human and have our own preferences. I've felt negativity towards people before, but its just fleeting moments. If its been with someone close to me, I still kinda know that it was just a moment and haven't held these moments as determining factors of our core relationship. And I've certainly never had it fester in me to a point of developing irrational hate towards them. If I do not like the way someone has treated me, I've simply... 2 0 replies
What’s the most important thing when giving a pitch? I’ve been wondering what’s the most important thing when preparing a pitch or presentation for your customer or investors? I tend overprepare (not a bad thing defiantly..), trying to cover everything, but I rarely have enough time to go through it all. Then there’s the nerves, balancing a good story, clear delivery, and a polished deck feels overwhelming.... so how do you prioritize when preparing for a pitch? and do you think the pitch deck is important? I always struggle between making it visually impressive and keep it simple...... 5 20 replies
