Love them or hate them, emojis are here to stay. With a recent update to Windows you can quickly access them using by pressing the Windows key and the full-stop key (or semi-colon) at the same time and then typing the word you want.
Another site I use to find emojis is: https://emojipedia.org/
I trust your holidays were wonderful. We were lucky enough to come back early enough to catch weaver birds being born in a nest just outside of our kitchen window. Rather than disturb them we set up an old phone to monitor them remotely. We first live streamed them using YouTube but then I decided to use Alfred instead. YouTube was draining the battery far too quickly and required the screen to be on all of the time, causing the phone to get too hot. Alfred is free to use and gives you a remote view of your live feed, motion detection with alerts, free cloud storage, a two-way audio feed and use of both the front and rear cameras. To unlock additional features, like higher-resolution viewing and recording, zoom capabilities, ad removal and 30-day cloud storage, you can upgrade to Alfred Premium.
