I'm basically living in a motel these days for work and using their wifi. Think I seriously need to learn about VPNs.
Was doing some internet banking earlier too. Sheesh...
For some reason my "favourite" link changed from Youtube to Youtube(cz). Weird shit going on here. Have changed it back to normal and no more annoying ads in jibberish just annoying ads that I can understand again.
Spooky Plassy CZ is a quality [emoji123][emoji123][emoji23]

Hi mate, what platform are you using? PC or phone?Quote:

It could have been something you did accidental, but your PC could also be compromised. Personally things like that would be reason enough for me to burn it all and start again. (Or roll back to a backup from pre-CZ)Quote:

Not a silly idea. NordVPN is a minimal cost for the security benefit.Quote:

Easier to do it from the modem, but a VPN won't protect you from anything, just from filtering at the ISP level, as it creates a private tunnel to the www that the ISP doesn't monitor. Won't stop spam and won't stop malicious attacks either.Quote:

Need some help please...
I've been using powerline adaptors in the garage to connect my cameras and they've been playing up lately.
I'll found this.
TP-Link Deco E4 (2-pack) AC1200 Whole Home Mesh WiFi System
Am I reading it right. I want something that I can place in the garage, connect that unit wireless and then connect to my DVR by ethernet.
Cheers..

I've got the Deco M5 units and have one in my garage. The only problem I've found is that they create a WiFi network that is on a different subnet to the main network, so I have trouble accessing network accessible storage wirelessly on my LAN (local area network).
All other internet functionality is great and they have a mobile app to manage the Deco units.
I'm thoroughly opposed to wifi for several reasons. Security is one of them.
AKA, anyone can drop a cellphone sized PC within your broadcast radius and over the course of a few hours (less or more, depending on usage) crack your network.
The effect of EMF on the human body is another biggun.
And if you've ever watched the terminator, or have any thinking on AI....https://www.tomshardware.com/news/wi...-within-a-room
Even EoP (ethernet over power) is potentially subject to ripple/trigger currents sent by your electricity network.
I would recommend running LAN cable or multi-mode fibre, then at least you "own" and control the data and interconnects on your side of the boundary.
About network hacking, I agree with you. What do you mean about EMF? I think this situation was described in a Johnny Mnemonic film. But it's just a film, there's no scientific data on the harm of such small magnetic fields.Quote:

Does anyone know how to re-open maybe 20 safari tabs I had open that have now suddenly closed/disappeared?
You could go to history to reopen maybe?Quote:

One of my Favorites may be labeled Saved Tabs.
Tap Saved Tabs, and it could reveal your missing tabs. Then you can tap each tab to reopen it.
Or
You can also access closed tabs on Safari for iOS through the History menu. Tap on the 'Bookmarks' button located at the bottom of the screen, select 'History,' then 'Recently Closed Tabs. ' From here, you can reopen any closed tabs.
...but, disclaimer. I am an Android and PC user and I feel that Apple preaches ease of use, however doing what you want on their platforms is never simple or easy.
Thanks BB but a long press on the + button does nothing except when I lift my finger it opens a new tab, just like a short tap/press.Quote:

Hi all, on my tablet I cant look at the full site anymore, it gives a 404 error when I press the Full Site button, anyone had this? The view I have is very hard to navigate.
What is the name of the app some people use on here?
I use Tapatalk on Android.Quote:

OK so here’s an easy way to post up pics from an iPad (and Presumably iPhone, and maybe android devices) without Tappatalk. Doing this now on my iPad using the desktop view mode, which I have always used as I can’t get my head around the mobile view mode.
1. Create a post.
2. Type your message: Hey here’s my photo from AB’s wild party.
3. Press the photo icon.
The Insert Image window pops up, with “From Computer” selection automatically selected. (If “From URL” is selected change it back to From Computer).
4. Press “Choose Files”. Choose “Photo Library” (if you have the photo you want already in your photo gallery, which is easy to take and save, or save from the internet).
5. Your device’s photo library will pop up. Select the photo you want to post. Press Add, then Upload Photos.
