Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

How to make a QR code?

How to make a QR code?

“Qr-Code” is a matrix code (or two-dimensional Bar Code) created in 1994 by the Japanese corporation Denso-Wave. "QR" is an acronym for "Quick Response", as the creator intended to decode the content extremely quickly. QR codes are common in Japan, where two-dimensional codes are currently the most popular.

Now I will show you how to quickly and easily create your own QR code and how to decode it.

The word "encode" may have associated you with writing code, but it didn't.

When you go to the site www.qrcoder.ru you will see a large blank field where you need to copy some text or link. The link can contain anything, even pictures, clips, etc. Once you have entered what you want, below that field you can select the size of the QR code image (I recommend leaving it as it is, so 3). This is what it all looks like:

when you have finished entering the text/link in the field and selecting the size, all you need to do to create the code is to click on the button below the field (ctrl + enter).

An image of your Code now appears on the right:

Ok, you have a picture of the code, how to decode it?

The best way is over the phone. For this, you will need a java application (.jar) which you can download from this link. Once downloaded, switch to your phone and install. When you start the application, a camera will appear, take a picture of the Code, and wait. When finished, the link/text you entered in the field at the beginning of the tutorial will appear. Everything is completely free and you can create endless QR codes.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.

[Google+] File sharing

The Google+ network brings with it a lot of new options and features that, as I noticed, users like. One of these new features is file sharing between users. Sharing takes place via chat and requires the approval of the file recipient.

Google offline maps - instructions

Google has recently added several new features to its maps, including Offline maps and turn-by-turn navigation. It was these two options that were missing so that Google Maps  that could be used as a standalone offline navigation app.

Change the background in Blogger by clicking on the link

So, with the help of Jquery, we can create a very simple widget for blog visitors with which they can change the background. In the picture on the left, I took ordinary links as an example and only 3 colors, you can insert thumbnails and as many colors as you want. But you will need a little coding for that.

SIM card sizes (Mini, Micro, Nano) - explanation

Many users still complain about the size of SIM (subscriber identification module) cards. Which one goes on the phone? Can it be shortened? Can a smaller one into a larger slot? Although we are slowly switching to eSIM (more on this in this article ), we still use classic SIM cards. Newer phones usually require a Nano sizes, but operators issue SIM cards in all sizes. More precisely, now SIM cards are made so that the user can choose the size immediately, and later change it if necessary. More on that at the end of the article.
