Hello I am just a Dad with ADHD so currently hyper fixating on pc repair and fixing just anything I can to get that dopamine rush of success also needing to step my game up as I used to consider myself tech savvy but after seeing how fast my 7 yo son picks up on all the things I used to know it’s humbling but very proud so I’m just here to see if I can learn something new and useful to maybe not be completely obsolete in a couple years lol and maybe I could help in someway someone who has a problem I maybe solved along the way. Thanks for letting me be a part of this space.

Hi everyone,

Hello! My name is Alex Carter.
I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but I’ve had the opportunity to live and study in different places, which has really shaped my worldview. I’m passionate about technology and innovation, so I pursued a degree in Computer Science from the University of British Columbia.Comment

Hi. Now, when I tried to ask for help, my message is deleted. Maybe it's because since 2017 I asked for help for the first time without introducing myself... My name is Sergey. I'm retired, sometimes I fix equipment for friends, in my old profession as an electronics engineer.Comment
