Gmail Send Mail As a Custom DomainWe rate this tip B tier: Google's help pages confirm every step today, and it saves minutes, not money. One Gmail inbox can send as an address on your own domain through smtp.gmail.com with an app password, set up as George Vanous did on Feb 15, 2024.
- Linksys Velop Nodes Without the AppWe rate this tip B tier: Linksys now documents the small "CA" link George Vanous used on Apr 10, 2023, and says its app no longer adds child nodes on these models. Open the router's web page, click CA, then Connectivity and CA Router Setup, and add the nodes from a browser.
- Monitor Stuck at 60 HzWe rate this tip B tier: it costs nothing and takes two minutes, and Microsoft, Nvidia and ASUS all document it. A fast monitor runs at 60 Hz until you raise the refresh rate yourself, as George Vanous found on a 165 Hz ASUS screen he had used at 60 Hz for years.
- Remove a PDF PasswordWe rate this tip B tier: open the PDF with its password, print it to Windows' built-in "Microsoft Print to PDF" printer, and the copy that comes out has no password. Our own test on Nov 10, 2026 confirmed it, and showed what the copy loses.
