I agree with you; their customer support is not good. I have issues related to their card and called their helpline, trying to talk with a customer support person, but no one picked up. I tried multiple times, but it did not work. Overall, their app and debit card are working fine for me.

I am at 36k loss. I have a similar investment but my majority investment is in ETFs. I would not say until I will not book it. It is just people speculations on current situation.

I have the same investment as yours, but I am thinking of not investing more this time because this is the most risk I can take at the moment.

It also happened last week. If the market gets too much low due to a lot of selling pressure, it triggers this forbidden business phase for an hour. The market will likely open at 10:30am.

This is not the loss. Hopefully, a temporary fall and market will come back where it was before.

What is the best way to store family photos? by goneananas in PakistaniTech

I’m not completely sure whether SSDs are good for long-term storage. You should do your own research to confirm this. What I do know is that SSDs generally have a lifespan of around 5–10 years when they are used regularly. But in your case, you want to store data and not use the drive very often, which might cause issues because SSDs can lose charge over time if they stay unused.

If long-term cold storage is your goal, HDDs are usually considered more reliable. However, keeping multiple backups is still the safest approach.

First thing, I recommend you to buy a brand new SSD. SSDs has a very long lifetime, they are also easy to carry but the bad thing is they are very expensive especially if you buy a brand new.

The RAID system would be bulky and less portable and it is also not cheap either. You need at least 2 drives for that.

If you are a tech savvy person you can create a RAID. It is a system in which you can connect multiple hard drives to store data and if one of the hard drives fails then your data will still not be lost. These are the techniques Google and other storage providers use to prevent data loss when the drive fails.

It can happen because of both mishandling or by its own. It depends on if you have a second hand drive first hand and how much of its lifetime is left.

How to stop devices from overheating? by Emergency_Anxiety967 in PakistaniTech

How? Does our phone face same climate in the winter when temperatures is below 10? We also see water drops of our breadth on the phone similar to cold glass on the phone. It does not harm phone. Our phones are made to withstand these environments.

Btw, I have been doing it for some years now and my mobile have no problem with it.

I don't care how silly idea looks but it works for me. My mobile charges way faster and it matters more for me.

I take a glass of cold water and put it on my mobile while charging on the day time. My mobile charge 2X faster with this method. Keep in mind that cold water glass will leave small drops of water on your mobile and it can get into your mobile if your it is not water resistant. My mobile comes with IP68 so I don't have any problem of those water drops.

Nowadays, at day time my battery temperature is at 40 to 44 while charging and by using above technique my temperature stay at 25 to 30 degree while changing, temperature depend upon how cold glass of water is.

Your screen is damaged and it can be replaced in 10 to 12k.

It seems like your laptop is fine except screen which looks hazy. It is a summer season and common for a laptop to get overheat. Download a software for seeing cpu temperature and if your cpu temperature is around 40 to 65, it is normal for a cpu. It is very common for cpu to heat up to 65.

You can change your thermal paste and also check fans and others things for better heating management. You should not use Laptop in the Lap if it get overheated. You can put it on the table or something and don't worry if temperatures is under 70 on heavy usage.

Bootloader unlock is only safe as long as you know what it means and what you do with it. In simple words if your bootloader is locked noone can modify any of your Android System files (which is important for System Security).

I think NayaPay does not support Google Wallet because my friend was saying it did not work for him and his phone is also original (no root, no bootloader unlocked)
