mt-tom-comunication-mountain-holyoke-ma

MT. Tom Holyoke, MA is now a state reservation antenna farm that used to be a sky resort and popular amusement park, it closed in 1998.

The number of antennas that have gone up since closing has been enormous. The Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center (MGHPCC) in Holyoke, MA uses some antennas for communications.

I was on top of the mountain a few months ago and it is being kept extremely secure. The reason environmentalists wanted to increase the endangered rattlesnake population in 2017 was to keep the public away. There is a colony of timber rattlesnakes living on MT. Tom as of 2021. mtara.org

Understanding how to choice the right computer hardware for your needs

A cad card like nvidia quadro is better for professional use with multiple monitors and higher end CAD software like catia, gtx is no good with software which requires good opengi performance for rendering like solidworks it is unusable with Real View in solidworks.

 

Trick questions asked in I.T. job interviews

The term BIOS stands for a lot of different things, be careful. If asked what are computer bios it could be safe to say "basic input output system". When the word bios is being used it has to be pertaining to something in order to determine what it will stands for, other wise it is a trick question.
I/O stands for input output but not all the time, it is mostly used as an on off switch indicator on a schematic diagram.
I.T. stands for information technology, however a lot of people think it stands for internet technology.

Dell monitors use a LCD color retention tool or setting that helps make the colors look a lot more accurate, I believe it works.


A general note on server side php include configuration
I prefer to have my include files with a .php extension. I know some people prefer to use extensions like .html or .inc (to designate it�s an 'included' file), but this way:

  • The source code isn�t visible if someone went to that file directly on the server. This is more important for database connection strings.
  • You can have other PHP functions within it (ex. include another file).

About The Windows 10 & 11 fast start up feature

Fast start up is enabled by default when a new computer is loaded with an operation system. A lot of IT technicians don't like this feature, they think it causes problems with Windows updates that come in behind the seems. It does this because when fast start up is enabled and you shut down your computer, windows will write all the users data information to a temporary start up file designed to override everything at start up or coming out of sleep and hibernate.

When its time to start the computer and install automatic updates, this temporary file will cause problems, a lot more then Microsoft wants people to know. Thanks to solid state hard drives, fast start up, will not slow down your computer that much. Stability and reliability are what computers are all about. Most IT maintenances people will advise people that it's important to shut down and start up your computer at least once a day.

With start up being so important, it makes even more since that a full start up is even better for a computer.


Five ways to find you Windows 10 product activation key (PAK).

1. In search bar type or run [CMD] no brackets, then enter this [wmic path softwareLicensingService get OA3xOriginalProductKey
OA3xOriginalProductKey] copy or past no brackets. Key should apear soon.

2. Run RegEdit in Windows then do a search (edit menu > find) for the term �BackupProductKeyDefault� space "BackupProductKey"  space "Backup" without the "quotes". After a few seconds (my fast modern PC took about 20s, don�t worry if nothing seems to be happening) you will see the 25 digit alphanumeric product key listed to the right in the BackupProductKeyDefault row.

How to find the Windows 11 (PAK)

Antec computer case


Windows 11 Update

Windows 11 operating system  can be installed on older computers that give an unsupported hardware warning when trying to install or upgrade to the Windows 11 (OS).

People who are going ahead with doing this update work around have not reported having any problems. Microsoft is providing updates for systems that are using the work around.

When I install Windows 11 on older unsupported computers I install three to four Windows system registry keys, I do not use third party software apps that could contain malware.

 It is a simple straightforward Windows regedit command that I believe is safe and has not yet caused any complaints or problems.

Upgrade to an SSD hard drive for only fifty dollars more with a Windows 11 upgrade.


Antec computer cases are used in the custom-built computers I make for my clients. These high-performance computer cases are known for both their gaming and professional power user abilities.

High quality high output Antec power supplies, 350 to 1000 watts, assure proper pc component protection.

Long life Steal ball bearing fan motors and high-grade Aluminum or high-grade Steal construction makes this the perfect desktop computer case for computer enthusiasm.


Can't find hard drive during Windows 11 OS installation?

Intel 11th through 14th I generation processors need a special Intel rapid storage technology (RST) driver in order to install windows 11.

Motherboards can not see the hard drive without this extra driver installation during the Windows 11 installation process, everybody finds this to be a major pain in the brain.

It is the same thing that happened during 2010 when RAID driver configuration reemerged form the 1970's. Let me help you with this installation problem and never worry about it again.
