Rick’s Daily Pick: Auoace No Stud TV Wall Mount

Posted on August 3, 2026

Note: The links in this post are affiliate links.

My “Pick” for today is this absolutely fantastic Auoace No Stud TV Wall Mount.

Have you ever tried attaching a TV mounting bracket to a wall only to find there were no studs in the places where you needed them to be? And don’t get me started on the difficulty of using drywall anchors!

Or perhaps you moved a TV to a different place and were left with unsightly anchors and/or holes in your wall?

Well, this gem solves both of those problems. You can mount any VESA 12-55 inch TV (up to 99 lbs) without drilling any holes in your wall or needing to locate any studs. And if you ever decide to move the TV you won’t be left with any ugly large holes, anchors or screws. This is hands-down the best way to install a TV on your wall!

Click here to check out the Auoace No Stud TV Wall Mount at Amazon.

Question from Roger:  Hi, Rick. I’d love to have your advice on a good online photo editor.

I bought Photoshop Elements and installed it on my desktop computer several years ago. That computer got destroyed by lightning so I bought a new desktop PC and installed Photoshop Elements on it from that same disc, and it worked fine.

Well, that replacement PC is getting pretty long in the tooth now so I bought a computer to replace it. When I went to install Photoshop Elements on the new computer it told me I had already installed it on two machines and it wouldn’t let me install it on the new one.  [Read more…]

Smart Glasses vs Regular Sunglasses: Costly novelty or the wearable tech worth having?

Posted on August 3, 2026

If you have been seeing smart glasses pop up more often and wondering whether they are actually worth the extra money over a regular pair of sunglasses, you are not alone.

Smart glasses have come a long way from the clunky, self-conscious tech eyewear that appeared a decade ago and disappeared just as quickly. The current generation looks like regular eyewear, fits like regular eyewear, and in most social situations reads as exactly that.   [Read more…]

Question from Tina:  I’ve noticed the lights on my modem are blinking more or less constantly.

In fact, they even blink when I’m not using a web browser, checking my email or doing anything else on the Internet.

Is it normal for all those lights to be constantly blinking or should I be worried?  [Read more…]
