Don’t Believe Instagram: The Downsides of Constant Travel

<p>Instagram paints a pretty picture of longterm travel, but it’s not accurate. I’ve spent the last four years traveling pretty much non-stop and, while it’s certainly great and I love doing it, there are serious downsides. It’s not for everyone.</p>
<p>Since I finished college back home in Ireland in 2015, I’ve been traveling. I started writing in my sophomore year, and by the time I graduated, I was earning enough to do it full time. And the best bit was because I was writing for newspapers, magazines, and websites all over the world, nobody cared where I was as long as the work got done. I’ve used that freedom to spend months skiing in France, to live on tropical islands in Asia, to road trip around Mexico, to get the train from coast-to-coast in the U.S., to sail in the Mediterranean, and to generally see the world.</p>
<p>Sounds incredible, right? And it is. I’ve loved traveling like this, but the longer I do it, the more I can see the downsides. There are a lot of “digital nomads,” “#vanlife”-ers, and the like posting a distorted, overly-positive view of constant travel on Instagram. If you follow them, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s all beach days and coconuts. There’s a lot more to it than that—not all of it good.</p>
<h2>You Lose Your Life at Home</h2>
<p>In the four years I’ve been gone, life at home in Ireland has moved on without me. My friends have built careers, entered serious relationships, fought, fallen out, and just generally got on with their lives. When I go back for a few months every year, things are not the same.</p>
<p>Don’t get me wrong, I still love my childhood friends—they’re some of my best friends in the world—but their lives haven’t been on pause while I’ve been gone. They’ve changed a lot, and I’ve changed a lot.</p>
<p>After a few years traveling, it’s gotten increasingly hard to spend time at home. I’ve been left behind a bit. If I moved back permanently, I’m sure things would gradually find a new normal, but as things stand, I’m an outsider.</p>
<h2>You Miss a Lot</h2>
<p>And as things change at home, you miss a lot. I was best man at a wedding earlier this year, and it cost me several thousand dollars to be there. I can’t afford that for anything but the biggest events. Early on, I missed reasonably mundane things like 27th birthday parties. In the past few years, though, I’ve started to miss bigger events.</p>
<p>This year alone I’ve missed a different wedding and two of my best friends’ thirtieths. By sheer chance I was at home when my elderly dog died, so I was able to say goodbye, but I doubt I’ll be so lucky with the next one. I say goodbye to him every time I leave now.</p>
<p>If I keep traveling, I’m only going to miss more events like this. Births and birthdays, weddings and funerals. They’re all going to keep happening whether I’m there or not.</p>
<h2>Relationships Are Hard to Build</h2>

The Best Home Theater A/V Receivers for Under $500

<p>Do you find yourself wishing you could get a more immersive, theater-like experience in the home? Is your soundbar just not enough anymore? One of these audio/visual (A/V) receivers can take your sound to the next level!</p>
<h2>What to Look For in a Surround Sound Receiver</h2>
<p>A/V receivers have been improving for decades. The feature list feels endless with high-end models that can reach into the several thousands of dollars territory. While most of us can’t afford the ultra-premium units, those same features are trickling down into more reasonably-priced models. Here is a list of essential features that allow a mainstream-class receiver to produce great sound in most environments.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Surround Channels</strong>: The most basic A/V receivers include five channels of main audio (left front, center, right front, left rear, and right rear) plus a single subwoofer for a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5.1_surround_sound">5.1 surround sound</a> configuration. This works just fine for smaller theater rooms. For larger rooms, an additional two audio channels (surround left and surround right) round out a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.1_surround_sound">7.1 surround</a> sound configuration. The two other channels increase sound <em>location</em> fidelity for a more immersive experience. Some systems also have an additional subwoofer channel to provide a fuller, more balanced bass experience in the room for a 5.2 or 7.2 channel configuration. To this, some systems add support for two or four ceiling speakers or upward-firing speakers that reflect sound off the ceiling adding still more three dimensional sound depth. This is represented by a 5.1.2, 5.2.2, 7.1.2, or 7.2.2 channel configuration.</li>
<li><strong>Max Power / Channel Power</strong>: Every surround receiver includes an amplifier to drive the surround speakers. More surround channels require more total power to achieve desired volume levels. It is important to understand how much power per channel is provided so that speakers can be appropriately matched to the receiver to produce good sound from the system. Power per channel is directly related to speaker ohms. Higher ohms means more resistance so that the receiver can provide less power. Lower ohms means less resistance so that the receiver can provide more power. When looking at receiver power ratings, if the manufacturer is presenting wattage at lower ohms like four or six, then they might be gaming the system a bit to make numbers look better.</li>
<li><strong>Surround Sound Encoding Support</strong>: At a minimum, all modern receivers will likely support <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Digital">Dolby Digital</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTS_(sound_system)">Digital Theater System (DTS)</a> formats for 5.1 or 5.2 configurations. They may also support <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Digital_Plus">Dolby Digital Plus</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_TrueHD">Dolby TrueHD</a>, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTS-HD_Master_Audio">DTS-HD</a> for 7.1 or 7.2 configurations. Finally, if you are looking to add ceiling speakers in a 7.1.2, 7.2.2, 7.1.4, or 7.2.4, you will be looking for <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Atmos">Dolby Atmos</a> or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTS_(sound_system)#DTS-HD_High_Resolution_Audio">DTS:X</a> format support. There are several other similar formats you might encounter, but these are the most common encountered with streaming, gaming, and broadcast video sources.</li>
<li><strong>Automatic Calibration</strong>: It takes a lot of knowledge to properly configure the multiple sound settings in a surround sound receiver for a particular room. Many receivers can listen to the sound in the room and automatically calibrate themselves!</li>
<li><strong>Wireless Audio</strong>: Most receivers include support for <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth">Bluetooth</a> audio, but several also support audio <em>casting</em> over Wi-Fi or even <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AirPlay">AirPlay/AirPlay 2</a>. A few also support <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromecast">Chromecast Audio</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Streaming Audio</strong>: With the ever-growing popularity of Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, and others, some receivers are supporting these streaming services directly without depending on additional source devices.</li>
<li><strong>Video Support</strong>: When an A/V receiver is deployed, it becomes the hub for every audio and video device in the home theater. All HDMI video devices should be connected to the receiver so that you only need to select the receiver input source, causing both audio and video to switch together. This built-in HDMI switch should support <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection">HDCP</a> 2.2/2.3, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-dynamic-range_imaging">HDR</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-dynamic-range_video">Dolby Vision</a>, as well as full 4K/60p <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-definition_television">Ultra HD</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_3D">Digital 3D</a> video. It should also support <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI">ARC and HEC over HDMI</a> to make it easier to control the receiver with your TV remote control.</li>
</ul>
<p>The list could go on and on. But our roundup of surround sound receivers does a great job of implementing most of the features above to provide the best experience for most people.</p>
<h2>Best Overall Receiver: Denon AVR-S750H</h2>
<figure id="attachment_23358" style="width: 1200px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img alt="Denon AVR-S750H" class="wp-image-23358 size-full" height="638" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2019/09/8486bbc0.jpg" width="1200" />
<figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="imagecredit">Denon</span></figcaption>
</figure>
<p>Denon has been making high-fidelity audio components since the early 1970s, and it has been engineering some of the best surround sound receivers for decades. It’s known for incredible audio quality and for supporting cutting-edge features. The AVR-S750H follows this tradition while also coming in at a very reasonable price point.</p>
<p>The AVR-S750H is a 7.2 or 5.2.2 channel receiver that drives an immersive, three-dimensional sound field with 75 watts per channel into 8-ohm speakers or 110-watts per channel into 6-ohm speakers across all seven channels. It can generate a clean sound with more volume than most theater rooms will ever need. Once you pick a channel configuration, the Denon Audyssey speaker calibration and optimization system can dial in the speaker configuration settings for you.</p>
<p>The Denon supports most of the typical encoding formats including Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization, and DTS Virtual:X. It also provides Dynamic Volume and Dynamic EQ to ensure that volume levels are evened out, ensuring that dialog is clear even at low volume levels.</p>
<p>Denon’s Home Entertainment Operating System (HEOS) technology provides integration between the receiver, HEOS enabled wireless speakers, and streaming content providers. It also lets you use your smartphone to seamless control the whole system. Streaming music providers such as Spotify, TuneIn, Pandora, Amazon Prime Music, iHeartRadio, SiriusXM, Soundcloud, Tidal and more can provide an audio source to the primary surround speakers or HEOS enabled wireless speakers deployed in any room. The AVR-S750H also supports Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, and high-fidelity digital music files via local USB storage.</p>
<p>With so many audio sources and destination speaker options, you might think it is difficult to control the system, but that is not the case. The <span class="htgeditornotesel">HEOS app (<a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/heos/id843129434">iOS</a>, <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dnm.heos.phone&hl=en_">Android</a>)</span>  on your mobile device makes it easy. The Denon also supports Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple Siri, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Gill">Josh.AI</a>. Once configured, you can just tell your favorite virtual assistant what you want to hear and where you want to hear it, and the Denon will start your audio experience.</p>
<p>Connections are plentiful on the Denon with six HDMI inputs, including one on the front panel, which makes it easy to connect a laptop, video camera, or mobile device. It supports HDCP 2.3, 4K Ultra HD, HDR, and Dolby Vision as well as eARC and HEC over the HDMI connection. The AVR-S750H does not forsake vinyl lovers with a dedicated phono input for your turntable. It also includes both WiFi and Ethernet support for network connectivity.</p>

How to Use Text Editing Gestures on Your iPhone and iPad

<p>Apple added quite a few new text-editing gestures to the iPhone and iPad with <a href="https://www.howtogeek.com/440039/the-best-new-features-in-ios-13/">iOS 13</a>. These make it faster to select text, copy and paste, and move the text-entry cursor around. Apple’s keyboard now supports swipe-to-type, too.</p>
<h2>Tap to Select Words, Sentences, and Paragraphs</h2>
<p><img alt="Select a Paragraph in iOS 13 with Quadruple Tap" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-441880" height="260" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/select_paragraph_iOS13.png" width="650" /></p>
<p>You can now more quickly select words, sentences, and paragraphs with a few taps. These shortcuts should work anywhere you can edit text in iOS 13, but they seemed a bit flaky in apps like Evernote for us. Maybe app developers just need to release a few updates.</p>
<p>While editing text:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Double-tap</strong> a word to select that word.</li>
<li><strong>Triple-tap</strong> a word to select the sentence in which that word appears.</li>
<li><strong>Quadruple-tap</strong> a word to select the whole paragraph in which that word appears.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Drag to Adjust the Text Selection</h2>
<p><img alt="Manipulate Text Selection in iOS 13" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-441881" height="202" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/selection_ios13.png" width="650" /></p>
<p>Once you’ve selected a word or a sentence, you can make that selection larger or smaller by swiping left or right near the edge of the selection area.</p>
<p>This is how text selection has always worked on iOS. But, with the arrival of iOS 13, Apple has improved it so that you don’t need to be as precise when selecting text. It’s much more forgiving, and you don’t have to tap as precisely.</p>
<h2>Pinch to Copy, Cut, and Paste</h2>
<p>You can also now copy, cut, and paste with a gesture. Previously you would need to highlight text then make your selection from the hovering menu. In iOS 13, first select your text and then:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Pinch with three fingers</strong> to copy it</li>
<li>Repeat the copy gesture twice to cut it (<strong>pinch with three fingers, twice</strong>)</li>
<li>Reverse the copy gesture to paste (<strong>place three fingers on the screen and spread them apart</strong>)</li>
</ul>
<h2>Swipe and Tap to Undo and Redo</h2>
<p>If you’ve made a mistake, you can undo it easier than ever with a handful of new gestures:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Double-tap with three fingers</strong> to undo</li>
<li><strong>Swipe left with three fingers</strong> to undo</li>
<li><strong>Swipe right with three fingers</strong> to redo</li>
</ul>

The Best Doorway Pull-Up Bars for Home Workouts

Admin 0 Tips 20:05

<p><img alt="Athletic woman on a pull up bar" class="wp-image-23629 size-full" height="900" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2019/09/b418dcc4.png" width="1600" /><a style="font-size: 14px;" href="https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/cute-young-muscular-girl-doing-pullups-1030957408?src=NK7JX-X9pDbCYSp6YqtSVA-1-1">MilanMarkovic78/Shutterstock.com</a></p>
<p>Pull-up bars are a great way to exercise your upper body and core, using only your body weight. Most bars can also be used for a variety of other exercises like push-ups, sit-ups, and dips.</p>
<h2>What to Look for in a Pull-Up Bar?</h2>
<p>Pull-up bars are a great tool to build strength, but before you decide on one to purchase, you should consider what your needs are.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Size:</strong> One of the most important things to do before purchasing a pull-up bar is making sure that it’s going to fit where you want to use it. Some doorways are too small or large to support a pull-up bar properly. So, if you have a non-standard door frame, make sure the one you buy is going to fit.</li>
<li><strong>Grip: </strong>There are many different ways to use a pull-up bar to work out different areas of the body. The direction you grip the bar, and the distance between your hands significantly change the workout you’re getting. Pull-up bars with multiple grip areas maximize the muscles you can work out with the equipment.</li>
<li><strong>Comfort:</strong> You’re going to be hanging your entire body from the bars. The contact points should not only be comfortable, but they need to be easy to grip. You don’t want to be slipping off like it’s a carnival game.</li>
</ul>
<h2>The Best for Most People: <span id="productTitle" class="a-size-large">Perfect Fitness Multi-Gym Pro</span></h2>
<figure id="attachment_23567" style="width: 1600px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img alt="Perfect Fitness Multi-Gym Doorway Pull Up Bar" class="wp-image-23567 size-full" height="900" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2019/09/10c7dcf5-1.jpg" width="1600" />
<figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="imagecredit">Perfect Fitness</span></figcaption>
</figure>
<p>The Perfect Fitness Multi-Gym Pro is an excellent product with three different grip positions—narrow, wide, and neutral. On top of the three kinds of pull-ups that you can do with this product, it is designed so that if you place it on the floor of a doorway, it can be used to support sit-ups, dips, and push-ups, giving you a wide variety of options to get your exercise in.</p>
<p>The Multi-Gym Pro fits in most standard doorways ranging from <span class="htgeditornotesel">26 to 33-inches</span> and can be constructed in a couple of different ways. There are multiple holes in the bars at different lengths, so that even if your molding is larger than usual, you can extend the bar down further into the doorframe to make sure that it will fit properly. The flat padding surface distributes the weight of your body more evenly onto your door’s frame, preventing indentation and markings after long term use that other models with round supports might leave. This also allows the ends of the pull-up bar to double as an extra-wide grip without the need for a weaker, secondary bar.</p>

</figure>
<p>The internet has revolutionized the world of education. Today, ebooks can replace stacks of textbooks, and productivity apps now help students stay focused. And some students even get their education without leaving the house, thanks to online classes.</p>
<p>Whether you’re doing a fully online degree program or just taking a free online course to learn a new skill, online classes can be wonderful. However, they also offer unique challenges far different from those of a classroom setting.</p>
<p>How can you make online school work for you? These tips will help you get the most out of online courses of any sort, from beginners’ cooking classes to advanced mathematics.</p>
<h2>Schedule Your Own “Class Time”</h2>
<p>One of the best, and also one of the hardest, things about online classes is the lack of strict scheduling. While some elements (like video lectures) might happen live, for the most part, online courses require you to keep up on your own time.</p>
<p>If you struggle with time management, consider scheduling a set number of hours on a set number of days as your “class time.” You can ask the professor how many hours a week the class will take to help make your schedule. Then, every time you have scheduled “class time,” you’ll know to sit down and focus on that day’s requirements.</p>
<p>While the hours will probably fluctuate some as the semester goes on, this structure will help you stay focused and avoid falling behind.</p>
<h2>Practice with the Tech Tools Early</h2>
<p>If you’re good at learning new apps and navigating new websites, you probably won’t have trouble with this. Still, you should determine which tools and platforms you’ll need early, and devote an hour or two to figuring them out in the first week. If you already know how to navigate the required sites and use the right tech tools, you won’t get slowed down when class really gets underway.</p>
<h2>Reach Out to Your Professor</h2>
<p>As soon as you start having trouble with something in class, consider reaching out to your professor. It’s often better to address small problems now than to wait until they become big problems.</p>
<p>For example, if you don’t fully understand an assignment, or can’t figure out how the discussion board works, send a message right away. Most professors appreciate communicative students and will be happy to help. Your classmates can also serve as excellent resources, so consider writing a post or email to them.</p>
<h2>Try a Handwritten Calendar</h2>
<figure id="attachment_9929" style="width: 1600px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img alt="young woman listening to headphones while filling in her paper calendar" class="wp-image-9929 size-full" data-credittext="Pixel-Shot/Shutterstock" data-crediturl="https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/young-africanamerican-student-listening-music-while-1440711230" height="900" src="https://www.lifesavvy.com/p/uploads/2019/09/84260304.jpg" width="1600" />

The SteelSeries Arctis 1 Headset: The Swiss Army Knife of Gaming Audio

Admin 0 Tips 18:47

<figure id="attachment_23403" style="width: 2000px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img alt="The Arctis 1 Wireless Headset sitting next to a Nintendo Switch. " class="wp-image-23403 size-full" data-credittext="Michael Crider" height="1125" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2019/09/975db0a1.jpg" width="2000" />
<figcaption class="wp-caption-text">The Arctis 1 Wireless works with anything that uses a USB-C port, including phones and the Switch. <span class="imagecredit">Michael Crider</span></figcaption>
</figure>
<p>One headset that works with all your gaming devices is a lot to promise. But, for the most part, the new <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07X96DFR5/?tag=reviewgeek-20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arctis 1 Wireless</a> delivers. If you don’t need something for your iPhone or Xbox, it covers all the bases.</p>
<p>The build is basic, and I wish SteelSeries had included a Bluetooth wireless option for devices that don’t support its USB-C-based, 2.4 GHz connection. The choice to recharge the wireless headset via MicroUSB is, frankly, baffling. But for $100, the Arctis 1 gives you lossless wireless audio across the PC, Switch, PlayStation 4, Android, and anything else with a USB-C port. At the moment, that selling point is unique. And it’s enough to get a recommendation from us.</p>
<h2>Simple Setup, Complex Connection</h2>
<p>There’s not too much to say about the Arctis 1 itself. It’s a pretty standard setup for a wireless headset, with materials that are a bit on the cheap side for the $100 price point. The microphone boom is removable, and the cups rotate 90 degrees for flat storage, but they don’t fold in for easy travel. A volume wheel, a microphone mute switch, and a power button are all you get for input. Wireless only extends to the USB-C dongle, but you can use a wired headphone cord for a direct connection to almost any audio source with a headphone jack.</p>
<p>The headset recharges via MicroUSB. That’s right—even though the wireless dongle is a USB-C connection, you have to track down a dusty MicroUSB cable (or use the one in the box) to recharge the headset’s battery. Most high-end headphones have transitioned to USB-C charging, as have the devices this headset proudly supports with its wireless connection.</p>
<p>So, if you’re buying this thing to use with the Switch or a modern Android phone, you can’t recharge it with the same cable. This is a very poor choice, <a href="https://www.reviewgeek.com/18030/death-to-the-microusb-port/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">as I’ve made clear before</a>, and it will cost the Arctis 1 a point or two in its final score.</p>
<figure id="attachment_23393" style="width: 2000px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img alt="A USB-C dongle and MicroUSB charging cord next to one of the Arctis 1 Wireless headphones." class="wp-image-23393 size-full" data-credittext="Michael Crider" height="1125" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2019/09/251d68d7.jpg" width="2000" />
<figcaption class="wp-caption-text">USB-C dongle, MicroUSB charging. Ugh. <span class="imagecredit">Michael Crider</span></figcaption>

<p>But the dongle works surprisingly well. When you plug it into an Android phone or the charging port on the Nintendo Switch, you get stereo sound without any kind of pairing or setup. While I’m sure some gaming wunderkind could hear a single millisecond delay, I can’t; for multiplayer gaming, it works great. The connection supports input and output as long as you plug in the boom.</p>

<p>If your PC doesn’t have a USB-C port, the package includes a USB-A-to-female-C adapter, so you can plug in the dongle (a USB-A dongle isn’t included). This cable is also mandatory to use the headset with a PlayStation 4 or the Switch, while it’s in docked mode, and no USB-C port is available. Again, the connection is fast and easy—even on PC, it’s plug-and-play.</p>
<p>The USB-C dongle also has a few extra millimeters of space added to its port. This means the dongle works with slimmer cases on your phone or Switch.</p>
<h2>Cheap, But Comfy</h2>
<p>The Arctis 1 is an all-plastic affair, except for the cushioning on the ear cups and the headband, both of which are synthetic fabric. That sounds cheap, and it is—I expected at least faux leather on a $100 headset. But, to give credit where it’s due, the set is surprisingly light and comfortable at only nine ounces. The generous room in the band allows it to rest lightly on top of my head, which is something other headsets haven’t done. Naturally, comfort will vary—my head’s a bit on the pointy side.</p>
