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.

Save internet in the Facebook app

Save internet in the Facebook app

The Facebook app uses a lot of internet traffic and you are probably wondering if there is a way to save. There is, and that option was integrated by Facebook itself into its smartphone app.

There are applications to save internet traffic, such as Onavo Extend and Opera Max, but they work on the principle of compressing content through their VPN. The problem is that they can't compress the traffic that takes place in the Facebook application, so Facebook has introduced this option.

How to enable internet flow savings for Facebook:

  1. Open the Facebook app on your phone
  2. Open the right menu and go all the way down
    Open the right menu and go all the way down
  3. Tap the "Data Saver" option
  4. Enable it
    Enable it

Below you also have the option to disable internet traffic saving automatically when using WiFi, so you can enable that as well, which you can't.

Now go back to the home page and you will see an orange color at the top and text informing you whether savings are enabled or not (depending on whether you are on a mobile or WiFi network). You have the "Settings" option right next to it, so you can disable saving right from the home screen.

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.

iPad 3 and 3D hologram

You've probably seen the concept for the iPhone 5, now you can also see the iPad 3 made by the same company, Aatma Studio. Certainly one of the options that I believe everyone will like is the 3D hologram and the ability to merge multiple iPads into one (which is also shown in the clip below).
