Help with DVD problem, please.

I got a DVD, never used with cellophane intact, produced in 1993 on ebay. I thought maybe, since I didn’t get a DRM warning, it predated DRM, and I could just copy it to my hard drive, so I did.

Do portable charges prioritize iphones charging speed over androids?

My xiaomi portable fast charger clearly charges my girlfriend’s iPhone faster than my high end android device. Doesn’t matter which port, which cable or which android phone. It starts by charging fast but as soon as I plug her phone the fast charging speeds go straight to hers and mine just chargers very very slowly....

Random Pixel observation: Google crops Motion photos

A few times I remember going to crop a photo and the app telling me it would remove the Motion part of the photo. Today I noticed I edited a Motion photo and it actually cropped the video in the motion data. the Result is literally just a cropped motion photo that retains the cropped motion. just thought that was near since for...
