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.

How does the new Google ReCaptcha work?

How does the new Google ReCaptcha work?

You've probably seen that some sites have a new Captcha anti-robot system where you only need to unhook the house. But how does Captcha know that the house was unhooked by a man and not a robot?

In fact, it's not a classic Check field, but a giant within an iframe. In addition, there is an invisible field in which a unique value is entered, and that field cannot be loaded by a robot because it does not support JavaScript.

New ReCaptcha

Still, some robots support JavaScript, does that mean the new Captcha is still vulnerable? Of course not. Clicking the Check field and storing the unique Code in an invisible field is not the only protection mechanism. Captcha is so sophisticated that it uses many more parameters, based on which it determines whether the field was clicked by a human or a robot.

This algorithm tracks the movement of the cursor on the site, how you clicked on the field, how long you stayed on the site, what you watched, tracks your internet surfing history, activities, cookies… And Google Analytics and AdSense algorithms even better block bots that otherwise increase views on pages and the number of ad clicks.

However, these are just some of the methods that the new Captcha uses. Google did not provide all the information for security reasons – so as not to create robots that falsify this information.

Testing Captcha

If Captcha is hesitant, i.e., can't determine if the field was clicked by a human or a robot, offer a classic test where you need to enter numbers from an image (or select thumbnails if you're on a mobile device). But there is also improved protection, so this action has limited time to make it harder for robots to solve the task.

ReCaptcha on mobile

The new Captcha is widely available to everyone and anyone can implement it on their site, and is it better than the previous one? Of course! Instead of making it increasingly difficult to identify images, Google decided to make it easier for people and make robots' work harder.

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.
