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.

Google chart now in 3D

Google chart now in 3D

A few months ago, Google integrated charting into its search engine to help students and math enthusiasts with their homework.

This was quite useful and interesting for everyone, so various charts were created, such as Batman's characteristic logo and the like.

Now it is possible to make more complex charts in 3 dimensions (3D)!

Just type a function with two variables to see a dynamic, interactive, three-dimensional drawing. Click anywhere on the chart to rotate and view it from any angle, and you can zoom in and out with the wheel.

You can set variables in the lower right corner, or you can do so in the function you entered in the browser.

This 3D display feature is enabled by a technology called WebGL, which Google is using for the first time in their search. WebGL is a new web technology that brings hardware acceleration to display 3D graphics in a browser without the need to install additional software. This technology is currently supported on more modern browsers such as Chrome and Firefox.

Here are 3 examples that you can enter directly into the search box:

sqrt(x*x+y*y)+3*cos(sqrt(x*x+y*y))+5 from -20 to 20
sin(5.5x)*cos(5*y)+x*x+1 x is from -1 to 1, y is from -1 to 1, z is from 0.1 to 2.8
tanh(y(y^4+5x^4-10(x^2)(y^2))/(x^2+y^2)^4)

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.

How to Decode a Mobile Phone

How to Decode a Mobile Phone? For many owners of new mobile phones that come with a subscription package from one of the mobile operators, this is an important issue. Many get the phone at a symbolic price of 1 dinar and do not intend to use it in the network in which they signed the contract . The problem is that such phones are always locked to the network they are from, and cannot be used in another network.
