So when streaming video best to connect to the faster 5G band. The 2.4 band is about 1/2 the speed. If many devices are using the same band it could slow things down.
You can find plenty of arguments to counter the points made in the article linked below, but I happen to agree with many of the points made.
I password is useless if you can’t remember it and these days, we all have tons we have to remember.
At work I had to write a password validator to use in a mobile app’s enrollment screen. I chose to only allow the special characters found on a standard keyboard. No extended ascii characters allowed. Limiting support calls was my main motivation.
Myth #2. Dj#wP3M$c is a Great Password
A common myth is that totally random passwords spit out by password generators are the best passwords. This is not true. While they may in fact be strong passwords, they are usually difficult to remember, slow to type, and sometimes vulnerable to attacks against the password generating algorithm. It is easy to create passwords that are just as strong but much easier to remember by using a few simple techniques. For example, consider the password “Makeit20@password.com”. This password utilizes upper and lower-case letters, two numbers, and two symbols. The password is 20 characters long and can be memorized with very little effort; perhaps even by the time you finish this article. Moreover, this password can be typed very fast. The portion “Makeit20” alternates between left and right-handed keys on the keyboard, improving speed, decreasing typos, and decreasing the chances of someone being able to discover your password by watching you (for a list of nearly eight thousand English words that alternate between left and right-handed keys, see http://www.xato.net/downloads/lrwords.txt.)
The best technique for creating complex passwords that are easier to remember is to use data structures that we are accustomed to remembering. Such structures also make it easy to include punctuation characters in the password, as in the e-mail address example used above. Other data structures that are easy to remember are phone numbers, addresses, names, file paths, etc. Consider also that certain elements make things more memorable for us. For example, patterns, repetition, rhymes, humor, and even offensive words all make passwords that we will never forget.
When creating a Facebook post, if you include a url to a website, Facebook will preview the website in your post. Facebook looks in a cached version of the home page so if it has changed since Facebook cached it, it may not preview correctly. To force Facebook to fetch a fresh version, go here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

This is very useful if you use a mac. Just open the pdf files you want to combine into one using Preview. Open the sidebar from each document and drag the page icons from one window to another. Save the document where you combined the pdf files. Be sure to view all pages before saving or you will only save the current page. If you still get just one page, then simply select Print of your new document and save it back out as a PDF.
I don’t have a cable box in my office but I do have an XBOX. Time Warner offers an XBOX app that allows you access to 300+ cable stations. Came in handy today since I wanted to put on the Olympics (in HD) in the background while I worked. We also use the TW app for iPad & Android tablets to watch shows on demand. NOW I’m starting to feel like I’m getting a better value for my Time Warner cable service.
