I receive lots of tech questions here at Rick’s Daily Tips, and there’s one question in particular that I receive time and again:

“If I delete a message I’ve sent to someone on Messenger will it be deleted from the recipient’s inbox as well?”

Now when you send someone a message you have 10 minutes to change your mind and “Unsend” it if you want to. And it’s very easy to do. Just follow the steps below for the device you’re using.  [Read more…]

How Internet access changes when you travel abroad

Posted on January 30, 2026

Question from Sondra:  I decided that I want to buy my husband a really nice TV for his birthday so I went to Walmart to pick one out.

What an exercise in confusion that turned out to be!

When I got to Walmart the TV section had dozens to choose from and the picture quality ranged from fair to really good, even on similar models.
