If your Roku TV or Roku TV Stick screen is black, there are multiple ways to fix this issue. I find that it’s a process of elimination, where I work through the simplest solutions until I find what’s causing my Roku TV screen problems. You May Be Using the Wrong Input On Your Roku TV Let’s get this one out of the way immediately. Are you on the right input channel? Like most modern TVs, Roku TVs have at least two HDMI ports. If you’ve plugged in a new device, you’ll have to switch to said channel, such as HDMI…

Like everything else these days, streaming services are getting more expensive. And that includes Disney+. However, I don’t want to cancel Disney+ permanently, so I’ve decided to squeeze more value out of it instead. The media business is shifting away from movie theaters and network television to streaming services. And that means many new movies and TV shows you can and should be watching are available on streaming services. Either exclusively or very soon after release elsewhere. To squeeze the most value out of streaming services, you must make the most of these opportunities to watch content quickly. So, I…

Although AI tools can be really useful for completing tasks, I don’t think you should use something just because it’s AI. Each time I need to use these AI programs, I find the best tools for the job with a similar protocol. 1 Understanding the Task at Hand Knowing what I need AI to do is always a prerequisite. Picking anything for the sake of it has never worked for me; if anything, it’s resulted in me needing to spend more time fixing issues. If I’m writing, for example, I want an AI tool that can help me find spelling…

Apple’s Safari browser comes pre-installed on macOS, but some prefer to switch to alternative options for various reasons. However, for entertainment, you should stick to Safari because it has multiple built-in features that make it perfect. 1 Seamless Integration With Apple’s Ecosystem The first, and perhaps the most obvious, reason to stick with Safari for entertainment is that it’s made by Apple. Hence, Safar is well integrated into the company’s ecosystem. One of the most impressive features available for entertainment is AirPlay support, which allows you to stream content from your Mac directly to AirPlay-compatible devices like Apple TV. If…

AI agents that can control a web browser and perform tasks, just like humans would, are no longer limited to concept. Tools like ChatGPT Operator are powerful but come at a price. Instead of paying up, I went looking for a free alternative—and I found one that works surprisingly well. Browser Use: The Best Open-Source Alternative I Found ChatGPT Operator can control a web browser and perform actions such as clicking and scrolling all by itself. You just have to tell ChatGPT what needs to be done, such as booking tickets or writing text in Google Docs, and it will…

Having skipped its CES debut back in January, my thinking ahead of seeing LG’s latest and greatest 4K TV, the G5 OLED, for the first time was “How much better could it be?” The outgoing G4 was comfortably one of last year’s best sets, and the pre-launch chatter seemed more interested on AI than what was happening onscreen. And yet at a recent reviewer event, a side-by-side comparison showed just how far the firm has come in just twelve months. The G5 gets LG’s new four-stack OLED panel, rather than re-use the multi-lens array (MLA) tech seen on the outgoing…

Quick Links Mirroring via SmartThings App Your TV has more tricks up its sleeve than you might realize. Many of Samsung’s smart TVs come with built-in features that can improve your streaming and gaming experience. Of the lot, these are my favorite features. 4 Universal Guide There are so many niche streaming services these days that it can be hard to keep track of all the content on these platforms. With platforms like Prime and Hulu, this isn’t a huge issue since most of the content is available on-demand. On the other hand, if you’ve subscribed to streaming platforms for…

Using different AI apps together is incredibly powerful—if you know how to best use each of their capabilities. It takes a little practice, but once you know how to combine powerful AI tools like Grammarly, Lightroom, and Claude, your workflows will be more streamlined and productive, saving you time and effort. I use Grammarly, Lightroom, and Claude to research and create posts for my travel blog, but these processes are easily applied to other situations. 1 Brainstorming and Research With Claude AI tools are excellent for research and brainstorming, and I believe there are no excuses for having writer’s block…

Welcome to Stuff’s MWC 2025 Awards! This year’s show has once again proven to be quite the showcase of innovation, providing our intrepid Barcelona-bound tech explorers with all manner of eye-catching gadgets to wet their tech whistles. Trawling through the cavernous halls of the Fira de Barcelona, we’ve discovered that devices like phones and laptops can, in fact, still be fun as well as functional. While many brands continue their by-the-numbers iterations — flat sides, flat screens, enormous camera islands, and all — it’s the quirky concepts and bold designs that have truly caught our attention this year. Innovation, it…
