The first two apps include nearly every piece of information you would need in your search for Wi-Fi hotspots. Free Wi-Fi Finder and Wi-Fi Finder work and look the same, except Free Wi-Fi Finder doesn’t differentiate between paid and free Wi-Fi spots, and Wi-Fi Finder does. They both work on all iOS mobile devices, being optimized for whichever device is in use. The hotspots are plotted out on a map, and can either be found via GPS, or by address....
Our Opinion Miguel says he might, but he “wouldn’t encourage people to hop on too quickly” because “making such an investment carries massive risks because of the low trading volume in these cryptocurrencies in comparison to fiat currency.” He believes they are “susceptible to volatility and pump-and-dump schemes.” Robert also thinks he may be, reasoning “So long as people treat whatever money they invest as ‘money wasted’ or money they can afford to waste, they can take a ‘punt....
HDMI Basics HDMI, or High Definition Multimedia Interface, is simply a standard for connecting high-definition video devices. It thus provides a faster and more efficient way to deliver high-quality digital video and audio from one compliant electronic device to another. Since 2002, HDMI specification has been revised seven times. The essence of each revision is to provide support for new advances in video and audio technology as well as provide an increased bandwidth to support these new features....
Almost every aspect of human creations are standardized to ensure compatibility. From language to time, from paper size to lamp bulb brightness, from shoe number to soap scent, and more. You can see the extreme example in the tech world where everything is standardized, including file format. When we talk about the ultimate standard for the image file format, JPEG is one of the kings along with PNG and GIF, but all of them are about to get dethroned by an unknown newcomer called HEIF....
What Does Cydia Do? Cydia was developed by Jay Freeman, who is also known as saurik, and millions have since installed his software on iOS. Like Cydia, Cydia Substrate for Android doesn’t do anything special on its own, but it allows developers to modify Android software without needing access to the source code. They can then use Cydia Substrate to distribute these extensions and modifications to users. Last month, IGN ran a piece highlighting what they consider to be the best apps available from the Cydia store: Dreamboard makes it easy for iOS users to change themes, Stride increases an iPhone’s security by improving upon its lock screen, Intelliscreen X ads widgets and other controls to the iOS lock screen, and CameraTweak gives the iOS camera more options....
Google’s Messaging Problem Google has a messaging problem. No, the problem isn’t that they don’t know how to communicate (though with so many computer scientists working behind the scenes, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was). The company has simply created too many messaging services over the years. There’s “Google Talk” for instant messaging, “Google Voice” for voice calls (and instant messaging), “Messaging” for sending SMS messages on an Android phone (with an interface almost identical to Google Talk), and Google+ Messenger for – you guessed it – instant messaging....

But there’s a better way to get rid of data you don’t need anymore. And it’s something that is implemented in Windows 10, some of the newer smartphones and maybe some desktop environments included in Linux distributions. However, the adoption rate of this system is still very low, and most users are not really aware of how useful it can be. It’s understandable since it’s one of those features that you can’t appreciate until the day it saves you....

1. Add a Folder to “Favorites” in macOS’s Finder Sidebar If you want to have quick access to a specific folder, perhaps the smartest way would be to place it into Finder’s sidebar (among your favorite locations). That way, you won’t see that folder at all times, but you’ll always be just a second away from it. Here’s what you need to do. First, launch a new Finder window by clicking on the Finder logo via your Dock (on the left side)....
What is a Boot Animation It is the animated logo or a picture you see when your device boots up. Usually, you would see your manufacturer’s logo with some animation when you reboot your device. The great thing about having root-access is you can change your boot animation. That means, you can replace your default boot animation with something of your choice. There are a number of boot animations available for Android devices that you can make use of to customize your device....

1. Choose the Best Currency First Not all currencies are equal – some are more profitable to mine, others earn you less for the same hash power. Even if you have chosen the best pool for a particular currency, if you are mining a currency with low profitability, you won’t earn much. Basically, old and established currencies are less profitable to mine with not-so-powerful equipment, but this isn’t an absolute rule....

Wireless functionality is fortunately spotty on the Mac. If you try to connect an Xbox controller wirelessly with its USB dongle, you won’t be able to establish a connection. The functionality has caused kernel panics since macOS El Capitan (10.11), and it had to be disabled to make the rest of the software usable. Wireless over USB doesn’t work, but strangely, Bluetooth does work, but only on controllers made after August 2016....
If you are really concerned about the security of your site, this is something that you really need to avoid. In place of FTP, you can use SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) to create a secure network connection instead. When you are connected via SFTP, all your data are encrypted. Even if they are intercepted, they will only show up as garbage text on the hacker’s computer. This tutorial teaches you how to connect to your WordPress account (or any other Web server) via a SFTP connection....
