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).

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.

What should you check before buying a used phone?

If you buy a used phone from an unknown person, or even from a known person, you must always check the phone for any damage - visible or hidden. But what all needs to be checked? How? That is exactly what I am writing in this article!

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.

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.
