Check Out Which Dinosaurs Lived Near You With This Map

Today we have various maps where we can see what something looks like or what something looked like before on the planet. In this article, I present a site/map where you can see what the planet looked like 750 million years ago, where your city was then, and which dinosaurs lived there.

On this site, you can set the period from 750 million years ago to the present day. There are a total of 26 periods and every time you switch from the one you will see big changes. At first, you won't be able to tell what's what, but when you reach some 66 million you'll recognize most of the planet.

What interests us in all this is which dinosaurs walked in our area.

In the upper left corner, you will see a search box. Here you can enter the name of the city, district, and state… and click on the result. A pin will now appear on the map indicating where the place is today, so you can see where it was before. Also, below the search results, you will see a list of dinosaurs that were nearby in the selected period.

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.

To click on the post or not?

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).
