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

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.

Facebook shortcuts

Facebook shortcuts

Keyboard shortcuts make it much easier for us to use computers and Internet services.

In case you didn't know, there are shortcuts for Facebook as well.

By combining the alt + some number keys, you can open an option, for example, the shortcut "alt + 1" will take you to the home page.

These shortcuts are different for Chrome and Firefox. The only difference is that in Firefox, in addition to the "alt" + number key, you also have to press shift. Eg: shift + alt + 1 - Home page.

Update [02.09.13.] - I would like to add a few more shortcuts regarding the chat:

  • While your writing field is active in one chat window, press Tab to switch to another open chat window on the right. Or press Shift + Tab to switch to the left open chat window.
  • If one chat window is open and active and the one on the right is lowered, press Tab + Enter to open and activate the one on the right. Or press Shift + Tab + Enter to activate the chat on the left.
  • While typing a message, press Shift + Enter to create a new line (because if you just press Enter you will send a message, as you know).

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.

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.

What is GLONASS?

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.
