By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

What are SOPA and PIPA?

What are SOPA and PIPA?

You've probably come across the abbreviations SOPA and PIPA a lot lately, but you're wondering what they really mean.

Here I will briefly explain what is SOPA what is PIPA and which is more dangerous for us (our region).

SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) is the Internet Piracy Prevention Act. A law that expands the powers of U.S. law enforcement agencies and copyright holders to combat the unauthorized dissemination, counterfeiting, and trade of protected intellectual property over the Internet.

So, if someone copies a text, image, song, clip… from a site that is protected by a license, to their site or anywhere else, it will have great consequence.

This law is not so dangerous for us because if you copy content to your site from a licensed site, your site will be blocked only in the United States.

As for PIPA (Personal Information Protection Act), the story is similar only that the site that copied the content is deleted from the Internet!

Currently, large sites (and others) are protesting against the introduction of these laws. Among them are Mozilla, Google, Microsoft, Wikipedia... and many others. The latest information is that there were as many as 7,000 sites in the protest.

The Galaxy Note was ridiculed when it appeared, and now…

By Administrator
Did you know that the first Samsung Galaxy Note was ridiculed by users and the media? Everyone laughed at his "huge" case and said that it would fall apart immediately after it appeared. They said that it was too big and that such a phone would never be used every day.

To click on the post or not?

By Administrator
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.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

By Administrator
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.

What is GLONASS?

By Administrator
If you've looked at the detailed specification of an Android or GPS device, you may have seen another term next to the GPS tag and didn't know exactly what it represents. Well,  GLONASS is a global navigation system that was started by the USSR in 1976, so this project could be taken over by Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
