Luxand Blink - Face Recognition

Data security has now become a major issue. People use strong, long passwords for their computers to prevent unauthorized logins and to prevent unauthorized people from making changes to your system. But using long text passwords is always a bad idea. This is because there is a high risk of forgetting the password. There have been many alternatives to logging in to a computer. Some of them include fingerprint, voice recognition, and more. Many new devices such as notebooks and laptops now have the option of face recognition, and for those computers that do not have this feature, free software has been created. Luxand Blink is a free program for Windows that allows you to log in to a user profile using face recognition. With the help of "Advanced Face" technology, it is possible to automatically, quickly, and reliably log in for one or more computer users. The user must have a webcam on the computer.

To click on the post or not?

Recently, Facebook has been flooded with " click bait " posts, and sometimes you don't know if there is something really useful behind that post or if it's just collecting clicks. There is a plugin that can partially reveal this to you. Nothing special, it's a Chrome extension called " Photo Zoom ". What does he actually do? Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.
