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.

Enlarge your image without losing quality with artificial intelligence!

Enlarge your image without losing quality with artificial intelligence!

The problem with raster images is that quality is lost when you scale them. You know that if you tried to increase the dimensions of an image, so the quality was destroyed. Some tools are trying to solve that and mitigate it, but so far no one has done the job well enough. Luckily for us, AI is becoming more common and accessible to ordinary users.

If you remember, I wrote an article about a program with which you can enlarge an image with a small loss of quality - SmillaEnlarger - and now I'm writing about an AI tool that does it much, much better!

Original image

It is a  letsenhance.io project that aims to scale - enlarge - raster graphics with minimal loss of quality. It may not sound impressive to you, and what will AI do, but just look below the difference between classic scaling and using this artificial intelligence. Please note that the original image is in .jpg format, size 300 × 208 pixels, and scaled in .png format measuring 1200 × 832 pixels! The picture is four times bigger and the quality is excellent.

You can also test this tool if you go to https://letsenhance.io/ and create a free account. Insert a small image and wait for the processing to finish. It takes about 6 hours to a day to complete the processing of one image, so don't forget to check the results.

When the processing is finished, you will have the opportunity to download the image in 3 variants: anti-jpeg, boring and magic. The first version is the original image but converted to .png format where jpeg flaws have been removed. The second and third versions are scaled with the third having more details and the second having fewer details but better quality. Depending on the image, you choose the version that works best. The creator of the tool states that it is better to use "boring" for illustrations and logos, and "magic" for photos - an explanation.

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 .
