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.

Why is this one of the best Android keyboards?

In this post, I am writing about the Swiftkey app for Android because I have been using it for quite some time and I am very satisfied. First of all, let me mention that I summarize my impressions based on the behavior of the keyboard when using the Serbian dictionary.

Swiftkey is a keyboard that has a lot of features, and the goal is to shorten typing time and hit whole words based on letters and sentences based on words. The keyboard also has a Flow option for our language, which I can say, even better recognizes words than the original Swype keyboard.

What sets this keyboard apart from the rest?

In my opinion, the only keyboard that perfectly predicts words and sentences for our dictionary. As I have been using it for a long time, I also entered a lot of my words that sync with my Google account (more on that later), I connected it with my Facebook account and messages from where my writing style "learns"! So the keyboard ends words and sentences for me just the way I would like it.

The Flow option is also great. All you have to do is "slide" your finger over the letter of a word and the keyboard will type that word. The original Swype keyboard doesn't always guess words properly, unlike the Swiftkey. It happens that she sometimes misses, but you correct her and she will hit next time.

Google Account synchronization was introduced recently and it's one of the best options they could introduce! So, you connect to a Google account and all your personal data is stored there and you can use it on multiple devices.

Another interesting option is tapping statistics. You can see how many meters you walked on that keyboard, how many words it corrected for you, how many sentences it completed, how much% you are more efficient at typing… There is even a keyboard map where you can see which keys and where you press them the most.

The keyboard is also available for tablets where you can choose the size of the keyboard. Among other things, you can divide it into two parts if you want to tap with your thumbs.

You can also install it on your iPhone and iPad

Examples of using Swiftkey

You want to type e.g. "Do you know tech" but you missed one letter. No problem, the keyboard will straighten after you tap the space bar. So you can miss one, two, three, four, and more letters and the keyboard will correct the word! Again, it all depends on how much she has "learned" so far. So, in the beginning, you may not see all the power of this keyboard, you have to use it for a while and allow it to "learn" your typing style.

Tips

  • Connect to a Google Account
  • connect to a Facebook account and allow it to "learn", also from SMS messages;
  • use Flow. If you have never used it try it now. If you don’t like it, turn it off;
  • change the Keyboard theme. There aren’t many but you can find something to your liking;
  • Resize the keyboard to suit you
  • Buy it! Yes, it costs about $5, but these developers who made it deserve even more. There is also a free version so you can try it first.

Update [06/11/14] - the keyboard has become free!

Android TV Box - a guide to buying up to 30 euros

What is Android TV Box? This is a great solution if you want to add a " Smart " function to an existing TV . With this device, you can watch live TV online for free (later on), play games, upload all kinds of files, watch movies (from USB, over the internet, phone…), listen to songs, surf the internet, use social networks… or everything you can on your Android phone. It is usually a cube-shaped device (but it doesn't have to be) and has various inputs and outputs. It connects to the TV via an HDMI cable , but some also have an AV output over 3.5mm that goes to the familiar 3 cinches, so you can also connect to an older TV (even to SCART if you have an adapter). It is also standard for these devices to have WiFi , LAN port (RJ45), IR Remote , at least 2 USB ports , support for high definition video formats (these cheap ones often have 4K support), and usually come with a remote .

Serbia will soon have the strongest supercomputer in the Balkans!

Today, the " Paradox " supercomputer has 1,100 processors and operates at seven teraflops, which is 7,000 billion operations per second. With the upgrade, the computer will have 5,000 processors and will work at 40 teraflops, or 40,000 billion operations per second. It can currently store 60 terabytes (60,000 gigabytes) of data.
