Hello! I wrote Lifehacker’s Appreciation Tech 911 Advisory column for three years and ongoing, with a new rate arriving every Friday at 9:00 a.m.CET (except for the occasional vacation day). I would love to continue like this – but to get us through this summer, I need more of your technical questions. All you’ve got, throw it in my way.
I’ve published, give or take about 150 columns, which means I’ve helped many people face the most bizarre technological problems. We are through the valley of “How did porn get onto my device?Together; We have prevented the social isolation caused by pandemics by restoring access to hacked Facebook accounts;; we have spoken a quantity over Networking. (What’s more important for self-induced COVID isolation than a good WiFi connection? I mean, other than Girl Scout cookies.)
The mailbag feels a little light, however, and I want to make sure you don’t feel left out. If you have a big or small question about technology, send it to me Click here. This will start an email with the subject line already filled in automatically. This is how I find your letters in the sea of press releases that flow through my inbox every day. If you’re at a loss on a subject, anything technology related is a fair game:
- Want to know why your Chrome browser keeps flickering? Happy to help.
- Do you need buying advice for a new WiFi router? Hit me up.
- Annoyed that your sprawling Steam library makes it too difficult to find games you might want to play? I can fix this.
- Experience a cracked, broken, Smoke, too warm or cursed device? Let us write.
- Are you looking for a freeware or open source alternative to an app that costs a lot of money? I love those.
Even if you want to do something but have no idea how to get started – like figuring out which of the many coaxial outlets in your house will actually work and how to plug in the rest without spending a fortune – I am. I’m here for you. Even if I don’t know the exact solution to your specific problem, I can walk you through any fixes I can think of (or research) so you can be sure you haven’t missed the obvious. I definitely don’t want you to seek expensive help when there is a simple solution that you are not familiar with.
The best way to answer your question is to send me one E-mail If you describe the problem in detail (including any solutions you’ve already tried, as well as screenshots or pictures as needed), you can also send me a tweet the avidmurphy. You can even leave a comment on this post if you really want to. I am here to help.
