Everything's Running and Nothing Works
Everything's Running and Nothing Works | Battle Born Tech · August 18, 2026 Three callers this week, and every one of them owns a machine that's running fine and still not doing its job. John's church stream has the sound arriving ahead of the picture, so the lips never match the words. We explain why video takes longer to process than audio, and how to line them back up, either with a delay setting or a simple hand-clap test in front of the camera. Linda's inkjet keeps clogging. We cover the once-a-week test print that keeps the ink moving, why you should shut the printer off with its own power button instead of yanking the power strip, and which brands make refilling less of a fight. Then Joan asks about the scams aimed at older folks. We lay out the rules that actually stop them. Never move money because someone put you under pressure. Hang up if a caller wants into your computer. Don't trust the number on your screen. And keep a trusted person you can call before you act. Fraud reporting numbers are in the show notes. Call in Saturday mornings, nine to eleven or Sunday evening seven to nine Pacific, at 775-241-3571. Or anytime to set up a call. Listen Tuesdays at 8 p.m. Pacific on KNVC 95.1, streaming at KNVC.org, with the podcast posting within 24 hours. Show notes and corrections: battleborn.tech.
