Help reduce eye strain with ClearType

http://res1.windows.microsoft.com/resbox/en/windows%207/main/caddf8bd-c6db-4868-a4f2-0f11c6ae8526_16.jpg

ClearType is a tool that improves the readability of the text on your LCD screen.
So if you feel the text isn't displaying sharply, use ClearType.
The tool will take you through a series of screens, much like an eye exam, to help you achieve the sharpest text possible.

A Little History of Google and the reason behind why it is called Google:
1995
    Larry Page and Sergey Brin meet at Stanford. Larry, 22, a U Michigan grad, is considering the school; Sergey, 21, is assigned to show him around.

1996

    Larry and Sergey begin collaborating on a search engine called BackRub. BackRub operates on Stanford servers for more than a year—eventually taking up too much bandwidth.

1997

    Google.com is registered as a domain on September 15. The name—a play on the word "googol," a mathematical term for the number represented by the numeral 1 followed by 100 zeros—reflects Larry and Sergey's mission to organize a seemingly infinite amount of information on the web.

1st HDD

https://i.imgur.com/mSADdPP.jpg

This Picture was Taken in 1956.Thats a HARD DISK drive with 5 MB of storage. In September 1956, IBM launched the 305 RAMAC, the first 'SUPER' computer with a hard disk drive (HDD).
 It was bigger than a refrigerator. It weighed more than a ton. And it looked kinda like one of those massive cylindrical air conditioning units that used to sit outside your grade school cafeteria.

Simple and obvious to most.

Run 'msconfig' and select 'selective startup'. Then change allowed services and processes at startup to reduce ram usage and startup times. You also can preset boot modes next time you restart (like safe mode with network support).

Trick for the day:-
With this trick, you can create a secure password protected folder in Windows which no one except you can access. To use this trick, follow the instructions given below:-

    1.  Open Notepad.

    2.  Copy and paste the exact code given below:-

    
Quote
cls
    @ECHO OFF
    title RohnearnerRocks
    if EXIST "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" goto UNLOCK
    if NOT EXIST MyFolder goto MDMyFolder
    :CONFIRM
    echo Are you sure to lock this folder? (Y/N)
    set/p "cho=>"
    if %cho%==Y goto LOCK
    if %cho%==y goto LOCK
    if %cho%==n goto END
    if %cho%==N goto END
    echo Invalid choice.
    goto CONFIRM
    :LOCK
    ren MyFolder "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
    attrib +h +s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
    echo Folder locked
    goto End
    :UNLOCK
    echo Enter password to Unlock Your Secure Folder
    set/p "pass=>"
    if NOT %pass%== RohnearnerRocks goto FAIL
    attrib -h -s "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}"
    ren "Control Panel.{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" MyFolder
    echo Folder Unlocked successfully
    goto End
    :FAIL
    echo Invalid password
    goto end
    :MDMyFolder
    md MyFolder
    echo MyFolder created successfully
    goto End
    :End
   3.  Click on the File Menu. Click on Save As.

   4.  Select All Types (or all files) in the Save As Type dropdown menu. Save the file as filename.bat or Lockit.bat

After creating the file, double click on the Saved file. A new folder will be created. Enter your data in the folder. Again, double click on the batch file. Type Y and press Enter. The folder will be hidden from view.

To re-view your folder, double click on the saved batch file. Enter password as
" RohnearnerRocks " without quotes ("") and press Enter key. This is also the default password. Your folder will be visible again.

To change the default password, edit the part of the code given in Red and enter your own password.

The overall usability of this trick can be improved by deleting the batch file after hiding your folder and re-creating it when you wish to access your folder again.

If you face any problem using this trick, you can write a comment and I will do my best to help you.

Note : This works on Windows 7, Windows XP and Vista. First try this on useless data to be sure and then only hide your personal data.

What is Database and MY SQL Injections
What is the Database?
Datbase is an application that stores a collection of Data.Database offers various APIs for creating, accessing and managing the data it holds. And database(DB) servers can be integrated with our web development so that we can pick up the things we want from the database without much difficulties.
Database is a place that stores username,passwords and more details. Database should be secured. But providing high level security is not possible for all sites(much costlier or poor programming ). So Database of many websites is insecure or vulnerable(easily hackable). [Most of the members here on bitcointalk know how bad it can be]
Some List of Database are:
*.DB servers,
*.MySQL(Open source),
*.MSSQL,
*.MS-ACCESS,
*.Oracle,
*.Postgre SQL(open source),
*.SQLite,
 What is SQL injection?
SQL injection is Common and famous method of hacking at present . Using this method an unauthorized person can access the database of the website. Attacker can get all details from the Database.
What an attacker can do?
*.ByPassing Logins
*.Accessing secret data
*.Modifying contents of website
*.Shutting down the My SQL server

YouTube was just one year old when google bought it in 2006 and it was peeking up , one of the best tech buy of this decade. You are right that Google is innovating and providing so many services for free but nothings comes for free as we all know so we are compromising our privacy. if you are ok with it than Google is best out there otherwise there are enough reason to criticize Google.

In Windows 7 it shows a menu I at least don't see otherwise. This happens in the control panel..

Access Administrator account: Windows XP ( not sure for Windows 7)
Steps:
1: Boot your computer.
2: Wait for the computer to list all available accounts.
3: Double click Ctrl+Alt+Del twice.
4: A window will appear with User and Passwords.
5: Type "Administrator" in the User space and leave the Password as it is. Click OK and VOILA!! You have entered the Administrator account.

Administrator account is like the first account ever created in a Windows, its different from the account from when we buy a new laptop. I think this is why the "Run as administrator" option is available in Win Vista and 7, although i havent tried to access the administrator account.

Sweet! That kid seriously has an interesting life, that's for sure. I wish I was that skilled at hacking. I'm an ethical hacker, but I doubt I could get into a NASA computer. However, the government here is often full of potholes because of all the red tape. The sites don't look all that hard to attack, but the military would probably try much harder for their security. I've never hacked the government as I don't have a reason to, but it would be interesting to see if I could do it with permission.

Tip of the Day: Remove old useless drivers

Every time you attach a piece of hardware to your PC, whether it is a USB stick, a new graphics card or a keyboard/mouse, the drivers get installed for that device to become usable by Windows. This is perfectly fine but a problem arises when the device is not going to be permanently connected and may be something you plug-in once and never have to again. Unless you specifically remove the driver by uninstalling through any software which accompanied it, the chances are there will still be an entry for that device left in Windows long after it was removed. Windows will still try to look for and start these devices when booting and although the difference may be tiny, hundreds of them could affect booting time and system performance, especially on older machines. Issues when installing new hardware might also be caused by an old driver conflicting with a new one.  Read More (https://www.raymond.cc/blog/uninstall-hidden-devices-calling-ghostbuster/)

Great Utility for removing Ghost Drivers:
 GhostBusters (http://ghostbuster.codeplex.com/)



Tip for Day:  Clean-up all your start up programs.

Here is a great utility for cleaning up all those programs that get installed in the hidden registry entries, startup folders and initialization files.  you can edit, delete, or temporarily disable these programs very easily.
