Adjust your privacy settings on Facebook
Changing your Facebook privacy settings is an important step to keep your private information secure. It can help you protect your reputation and avoid being scammed. However, changing these settings can be time consuming.
The most important privacy settings are found in the “Privacy” tab under the “Settings” menu. These settings are grouped into several categories. Some categories contain several dozen settings. There is an “Audience Selector” that allows users to override the default privacy settings.
There are also a few privacy shortcuts. This list allows users to quickly make changes to their privacy settings. You can access these shortcuts by clicking the Help Center button on the toolbar.
A few of the most important Facebook privacy settings include blocking games, messages, and app invites. You can also set your profile to only show certain information to specific friends and friends of friends.
Facebook also offers an option to hide your profile photos. This is particularly important if you are not a fan of having your photo on your profile. You can also turn off facial recognition. This will prevent Facebook from automatically tagging you in your photos.
Facebook also offers a few more obscure privacy settings. These include limiting who can see your profile information and what you have tagged in your photos. You can also limit the number of friends you have on Facebook.
The most important privacy setting is probably the one that lets you choose who can see your posts. You can set this to Friends, Friends of Friends, or Public.
Clean out your keyboard with a sticky side of a Post-it note
Using a sticky end of a Post-it note to clean out your keyboard is a simple way to remove gunk and dust from underneath keys. These sticky notes come in different colors and shapes and are perfect for cleaning out your keyboard.
Depending on the type of keyboard you have, you may need to clean out the keys on a regular basis. For example, if you use your computer frequently, the keys will accumulate debris and dust. This can affect the performance of your keyboard. If your keyboard has a lot of debris, you may need to replace the tape. You can also use a small vacuum attachment to remove dust.
Another way to clean out your keyboard is to wipe it down with a dry lint-free cloth. You should position the cloth so it is aligned with the gaps between the keys. You can use a soft microfiber cloth or a mild all-purpose cleaner.
You can also use a toothpick to get rid of stubborn gunk. It is a good idea to use a picture of your keyboard so you can easily remember where the keys go.
You can also use a cotton swab to wipe down the inside of the keys. You may also want to use a make-up wipe to remove any food residue.
For wet cleaning, you may want to use a mild all-purpose cleaner or glass cleaner. You can also use rubbing alcohol to clean out your keyboard.
Reopen a tab in your browser
Whenever you accidentally close a tab in your mobile browser, you can easily reopen it. This feature is available in most browsers. There are a few different ways to reopen a tab, and it varies depending on your browser.
If you have a Mac, you can use the Ctrl+Shift+T keyboard shortcut to reopen closed tabs. This is also an option on Windows PCs. You can use the same shortcut to reopen closed tabs on Chrome, Firefox and Edge.
Chrome allows users to view a history of recently closed tabs. If you are curious about which tabs you closed recently, you can click on the ‘Recent Tabs’ link on the Chrome menu.
Internet Explorer 11 offers a similar feature. If you open the Command bar, you can type in edge://history and it will open a window with a sidebar that displays the sites you visited in the last week or month. You can then click the ‘Reopen’ button in the sidebar.
In Firefox, you can also reopen closed tabs by opening the browser and clicking on the “Reopen Closed Tabs” link in the browser’s toolbar. You can also reopen closed tabs from other devices. If you want to reopen a closed tab on your mobile phone, you can press the ‘+’ button on the bottom left of your screen to access a list of recently closed tabs.
Safari, meanwhile, does not offer a direct way to reopen closed tabs. However, the browser does have a History section that allows you to reopen closed tabs from earlier sessions.
Reverse search an image in Google Chrome
Using the Google Chrome browser app, you can reverse search an image from the Internet. To do this, right-click on an image and choose “Search Google for this image.”
You can also use the “Search by Image” feature. This option is not available on mobile devices, but it works on desktops. You will see a search result that contains links to other images. You can also use the “Show Matches” button to visit the links to the matching images.
You can also use Google Lens to perform a reverse search. This is a great tool to use if you’re trying to identify an object, a product, or a person. You can also use the tool to find uncredited photos. You can also find similar images with interesting information.
There are also some specialty apps that let you search images on the mobile phone. These apps let you save time by not having to open a browser.
Some of these apps also let you search images from your camera roll. You can also use a web search engine such as Pixsy or Berify. These services also let you track images automatically.
Google also supports a desktop reverse image search. You can use the ‘camera’ icon on the search bar of your browser. To reverse search an image on the desktop, click on the icon and choose “Search Google for this image.” You can also drag the image from your computer into the search bar.
Prevent spam from getting into your inbox
Having spam in your inbox can be annoying and even dangerous. You may be receiving messages promoting products you have not ordered, or you may be receiving messages promoting malware. There are ways to prevent spam from getting into your inbox.
If you receive a lot of spam, consider creating a secondary email address. This will keep your main inbox clean and free of spam. You can also use your secondary address for certain online activities.
You can block spam senders by using a third party spam filter. These filters will analyze mail before it reaches your inbox, and will block unwanted senders. You can also configure your email client to automatically block spam.
You can also report spam by clicking the “Mark as junk” button. This will send a message to your email provider that it received a spam. This will help the email client learn how to recognize spam.
You can also use a free spam filter, SpamTitan, to detect phishing links and malicious software in your emails. SpamTitan is a free security app that will scan and block spam, and also scan attachments.
Another good way to prevent spam is to read the fine print. You should never reply to a spam email. This will only lead to more spam. Also, you should read the terms and conditions of any app or software you are using. This will prevent you from downloading malicious software.
