When it comes to desktop, working with subtitles is fairly easy, of course with the exception of Windows Media Player. Players like GOM, KM Player, and VLC let you do pretty much anything and everything with subtitles. But when you’re taking your videos mobile and still want to watch them with subtitles, MX Player is your best bet. It gives total control over the video subtitles and offers nothing less than the desktop players....
backup all your applications , Wi-Fi access points, call logs and messages on both rooted as well as non-rooted devices . The only thing missing in the list was backing up home screen settings along with all the widgets and folders, and today I am going to answer that as well. Most of us love to beautify our Android home screens with widgets and wallpapers, and we will see how we could backup and restore these settings so that we feel at home even after installing a new Android ROM....
Well, researchers from the Department of Food Science (FOOD) at the University of Copenhagen have been using lasers to study the makeup of crops. Ths includes those used in beer production. The information gained can be used to determine if the grain being used is good enough for the purpose it is intended for. How It Works The researchers made use of what is called a supercontinuum laser in their research....
While Apple has taken a strong stance against the data collection of users, some desire the best possible private browsing experience on iOS. And thankfully we have some Safari alternatives to choose from. Brave browser, previously known for acquiring the famous Link browser on Android, has used all the resources to build a brand-new browser focused towards privacy. Firefox also has announced a new separate browser called Firefox Focus, which aims to deliver the best private browsing experience on any smartphone....
Before we proceed, I want to clarify that Google regularly releases Android Security update patches for most smartphones. Those patches safeguard your phones from most nefarious vulnerabilities. However, what if your phone maker is yet to release that update? What if your phone behaves randomly? Well, that’s what we are going to answer in this post today. So, without further ado, let’s get started. What Are Viruses and Should You Be Worried The PC user in you must already know that computers often face virus attacks....
But then I don’t share my laptop with anyone. A luxury I suspect is not widespread around the world. Thus, Chrome released an easy way to switch user accounts and to start a guest session. Let’s see what it’s all about and how we can get rid of it if required. Meet the New Account Switcher If you’re running the latest stable version of Chrome, you’ll see the Account Switcher on the top right....
I wish they were all back there on every reboot. Browser session restores help me to some extent. Besides, there is a way to get back explorer windows. How about programs and the state of their processes? We have told you about an application previously that helps you reload the programs (not the work session though). Today, we are set to cover the remaining piece. We are going to look at a cloud based service, Cupcloud....
That ran my brain down the rabbit hole. So what’s the difference between process and service in Windows 10 anyway? Let’s find out how these two are different, why they need each other, and how they are similar. Let’s begin. 1. How Different Are They A process is an instance of a computer program or an app that you open and run on your computer. It can be executed using one or more threads....
Of course, you can always create and edit some of these types of documents using Apple’s own iWork suite of apps like Numbers or Pages for example. However, the documents exported from these apps are not always fully compatible with MS Office programs and when they are, they sometimes miss some parts of the layout or other elements. This is where DataViz’s Documents to Go Standard(costs $9.95) comes into play as one of the best and most flexible alternatives for users who want a way to work with Office documents from their iOS devices....
Consider this: Your desktop is set up for remote connections via the default RDP port. You’re at a friends house and you need access to your desktop. You would connect as usual, implicitly defining the default 3389 port. Your router at home is set up to forward these remote requests to your desktop. All is well until you need access to your laptop. The natural idea would be to define another rule in the router to forward another RDP request to the laptop....
Facebook groups are becoming popular day by day. They are a mini social network of its present inside Facebook. Each group is different than the other. You can find people similar to you in these groups based on their habits, location, likings, and more. Privacy plays an important role in a group. Here you will get to know the difference between the existing and new Facebook group privacy settings. Let’s check it out....
Take the example of Facebook Messenger. You get so many different options such as mute, ignore, and block to avoid contact with a person. That’s not all. If you think of deleting a chat thread, again you are offered two different options — archive and delete. Now if you have stumbled upon them, you must be wondering what is archive and how does it differ from delete. Thank your stars for you have landed on the perfect page....
For instance, modern world’s data communication technology has connected each corner of the world to the other, making communication among distant places a cakewalk, allowing millions of users access to a vast amount of information on the Internet. With the increasingly larger amounts of data being transmitted as time progresses, the data communication technology must continue to evolve to meet the world’s need. Researchers at the University of Utah have recently made a breakthrough in this regard....
However, last week I came across another note taking app on the Play Store that made me realize even the best apps aren’t perfect. FloatNote is a floating note taking app for Android, but what’s different is that it triggers itself when someone is calling you. The note is there to remind you about anything important you need to discuss with that specific contact. For example, I often think of little things to share with my parents, but tend to forget them when I am actually talking to them....
First, we have fans of stock Android. These folks generally go with a Nexus device, or root and flash their Android tablets and phones to turn them into stock Android-powered devices. Next we have those that like carrier customizations, including UI changes found in skins like HTC Sense or Samsung’s Touchwiz. They buy their devices and leave them alone as far as looks/UI are concerned. There are also users that are indifferent....
I’m also running Windows 7 using Virtualbox and end up using both the platforms but most of my time is spent on the OS X Lion and I have to say that it’s been a new and enriching experience. But Mac OS X Lion, like any new version of a product, brought along its own annoyances. One of the primary ones being the lack of click-and-drag feature. You know how you double-click on an icon or a piece of text and then hold and drag the second click to move that icon or text to new position?...
Google’s standalone, platform-agnostic, cloud backed photo management system is finally here. And boy it’s a doozy. Let’s find out more about what exactly it is and if should you jump on it. TL;DR: The Pitch Google Photos is born out of Google+ Photos and is a standalone service with apps for Android, iOS and a website.You can upload unlimited photos to the service for free (more on the specifics below)....
Password Security and Two-Factor Authentication We’ve covered how to setup two-step aka two-factor authentication or 2FA before in this post. The purpose of an audit is to make sure it works properly. If you use your Dropbox password on other websites, now is the time to change it. If you keep important stuff in Dropbox (like your 1Password database), change your password if it’s been more than six months. Regularly changing your password keeps your information secure in case of a breach....
Well, that’s the basic idea behind Li-Fi. Let’s explore this in some detail. An Accident Started Wi-Fi Not many have heard of the name Dr. John O’ Sullivan, but this Aussie scientist was experimenting on a technology to detect exploding mini black holes in the 80’s. Not much came of it, but in the early 90’s a failed experiment lead to the early formative years of Wi-Fi. It was certainly amazing at that time, but we’ve seen how quickly technology has moved....
Even when I recently bought an iPad Pro I still wasn’t convinced. The 10.5-inch iPad Pro is as smooth as butter and great with multitasking, but it still wasn’t the same experience as a Mac. All of this changed, however, when I finally caved and bought the Smart Keyboard. I thought it was ridiculously overpriced, but now I understand why. The Smart Keyboard transforms a mere tablet into a laptop replacement....
