The statistics are wild, but over half of tech support issues can be resolved by checking if all the wires are plugged in correctly and restarting the device.

Hot Take, but taking pictures after you label cords and plug-ins can be a lifesaver if an event causes a disruption in your workflow. Be sure to also supply your systems with the appropriate amount of power with the right combination of surge protectors.

Also, if your business requires a lot of devices (which come with a lot of cords!), make sure to have a professional come in to set you up right. Doing this correctly the first time will save you from confusion and bitter frustration in the future.

Stay safe everyone, wear your seatbelts, and enjoy ringing in the New Year!

This is just your End Of Year reminder to update those passwords

DO NOT write it on a sticky note under your keyboard, and change it regularly (best recommendation is once every 3 months)

12/26/2022

HAPPY BOXING DAY!

To all our friends up north and across the pond, we at Howste Technical Services hope that you have an exciting day of eating leftovers (mainly turkey sandwiches and pie!), binge-watching Christmas films, and enjoying the company of family and friends!

If you brave the cold to go out shopping today, we hope that you choose to shop local. Supporting your small business neighbors is the best act of goodwill!

HAPPY ST. LUCY'S DAY!

Today is St. Lucia’s Day, which has long been associated with festivals of light (particularly in Scandinavia). Before the Gregorian calendar reform in 1752, her feast day occurred on the shortest day of the year (hence the saying “Lucy light, Lucy light, shortest day and longest night”).

According to legend, St. Lucia would carry food and water to Christians who had been forced to hide out in the catacombs of Rome. The catacombs were dark, and Lucy needed her hands free to carry supplies. So, she engineered an ancient version of a headlamp, wearing a wreath of candles on top of her head to light the way.

We love a resourceful queen!

We at Howste Technical Services hope you spend today with family enjoying your lussekatter and gingersnaps with the Howste favorite, a strong cup of coffee!

12/10/2022

Today is INTERNATIONAL SHAREWARE DAY!

Shareware is software that is shared as “try before you buy”. Unlike open source software the author retains ownership of the program and the code, and often scaled down versions of commercial software applications are released as shareware. While you can use the software without paying, the idea is that if you find it useful, you should pay, or upgrade to the full, non-free version of the software. Some shareware are also only made available for a limited trial period, after which users are expected to pay to continue using it.

If you can, please show your support for these programmers who spend thousands of hours designing these useful bits of code by donating to them directly, sharing their programs, or purchasing the full licensed version!

We have som BIG NEWS! It’s not exactly been a secret but we BOUGHT A BUILDING 🍾

It’s been a dream for quite a while to not only have our own office space but to open an office as a new venture into coworking space and studio space.

Happy SAINT NICHOLAS DAY!

Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of children, sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, brewers, pawnbrokers, and students in various cities and countries around Europe. St. Nicholas was known for selling all his possessions and giving his money to the poor. In modern times, Old Saint Nick is most famous for being the origin of Santa Claus.

Did you know that in Bavaria St. Nicholas went up against Krampus and won?

Wherever you are in the world, we at Howste Technical Services hopes you have spent today hunting for candy, brewing good beer, being excellent merchants, and avoiding being baked into a pie!

In honor of NATIONAL ESPRESSO DAY, we at Howste thought we should post this great infographic to better help the general population to understand the necessity of caffeine for both wild and domesticated programmers.

If you see a programmer during your day today please take a moment to refill their pots. These ceramic cups come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and are designed to keep the liquid warm while also providing an opportunity for programmers to express their unique personalities.

It's like a built-in conversation starter!

Let’s talk VPNs!

“A virtual private network (VPN) is a great way for any organization or person to upgrade their online security and privacy. By creating an encrypted connection to the internet, a VPN filters all of your traffic through a network server, hiding your online activities from potential cybercriminals or even your internet service provider (ISP).” (Business.com June 2021)

The biggest pros?
Security and privacy
Access Geo-Blocked content
No bandwith throttle

The biggest cons?
Slower internet
The Activity logs
Shared IPs that always have a risk of getting blacklisted

Is a VPN right for your business? It depends on what you are doing and why you are interested in it. These are the kinds of things that our ninjas can discuss with you because we want to make sure you invest in the right security protections for your business and this is definitely one of those options but isn’t the only option.

Reach out to us to chat about your business security today!

On July 20, 1969, humanity walked on the Moon for the very first time.

NASA Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin touched down in the Sea of Tranquility at 4:18 p.m. EDT (20:18 UTC). Along with Michael Collins, who piloted NASA's Columbia module around the Moon, Armstrong and Aldrin were the crew of Apollo 11, the first of six Apollo missions to land on the lunar surface.

Fifty-three years later, July 20 is known as "International Moon Day", and our NASA Artemis missions are preparing us to return to the Moon for long-term lunar exploration—while expanding our presence in low-Earth orbit and getting us ready for future missions to Mars.

Malicious threats to cyber security are at an all-time high. More and more often it's hard to recognize these potential threats or loopholes before disaster strikes. Then when an attack inevitably occurs, it's even harder to get out of the crisis phase and into recovery. Is your small business prepared to adapt to the ever-changing cyber landscape and fight back?

At Howste Technical Services we believe protection is the highest priority. Let us help you prevent disaster and build a foolproof contingency plan to keep your data protected and your business thriving.

"You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into… the Twilight Zone." - Rod Serling, 'The Twilight Zone' Sometimes being online as a small business owner can feel like you're living in another dimension, but with the right team and a little imagination we think anyone can make it out of the Twilight Zone. . . . #becausesometimesyouneedaninja #bsynan #smallbusinesssupport #todayinnerdhistory #nerdhistory #twlightzone #nationaltwilightzoneday

“Difficult to see; always in motion is the future.” - Yoda, 'The Empire Strikes Back' In 1977, no one knew that Star Wars would explode across the entertainment industry, fundamentally changing how companies build their brands to reach audiences. Star Wars was simply a guy with a great idea. That said, movies cannot be made on a great ideas alone. George Lucas had to assemble the right team to tell the best story.

HAPPY NATIONAL INVENTORS' MONTH! Born on May 2, 1844, Elijah J. McCoy was a Canadian-American inventor and engineer of African American descent notable for inventing over 60 US patents, most concerning his ground-breaking work on the lubrication of steam engines. He's considered to be the most prolific African American inventor of the 19th Century alongside Granville T. Woods.
