Exactly.

A few things to check out before contacting your ISP. -> If you have the following set up: PC -> Wifi Router -> Cable Modem I would log into the wifi router to check the dhcp logs. If the modem is going offline during that time you should see attempts from your wifi router to renew its dhcp...

I run a few sites with nginx as the main web server. Its a server side issue, not yours.

Thanks for this. I just filled up there last week but luckily used cash.

Which is why I made the comment. Believing network security starts and ends with a firewall gives users a false sense of security.

Firewalls are merely one minor step in the entire process of properly securing a network. The majority of people only set up the inbound rules and forget about the outbound. Also the majority of firewalls don't prevent MITM attacks, along with countless other methods.

Knowing an ip address is no different than knowing someones home address. You still need to get through the door. Like a home, any computer can be broken into. If security is a concern keep sensitive data on a non networked computer or external hard drive. A good first few steps: not using...

It's a suggestion for people who are on the fence. Unfortunately, not all people are cut out to be parents. You wouldn't buy a home without viewing or a car without test driving it would you? :)

How could you not be afraid of losing almost everything you've spent years/decades accumulating? In a divorce: the house, children, and a percentage of your salary for the next few decades (depending on the age of your children) is awarded to her. It's the difference between retiring early or...

Hope this goes through. I could use a second team.

Some people are that paranoid. :)

Use https://startpage.com/ for those sensitive searches. Adjust the startpage settings to increase security. With chrome use Autoclear or private mode. With firefox set Clear history (check everything) when firefox closes or private browser mode.

Thats why you go to the dealership. It's been a while (over 15 years) but at the time my dealership used oem parts. In your case, even if the dealership doesn't use oem parts I would trust their warranty above anyone else's. Talk to the mechanic at your local dealership (ensure they're...

I use a similar method but run the os from a dvd without a hard drive installed. Works well in a pinch if you're paranoid. ;)

From the insurances POV, a claim is a claim whether its $1 or 1 million. If your broker tells you otherwise it's a flat out lie. Going out of your way to save them money won't decrease the hit you take from the accident. Also you have the right to take it to any repair shop you feel comfortable...

I use the same approach with my desktop pc and get the urge to buy some new piece every year or so.

You're definitely not in that average user category (surfing the net, movies, etc) or just love new tech.

Much longer for the average user/non gamer.

They can if while connected to them you open a browser within that session that routes traffic through them, (ex: vpn setup). Some malicious companies have users install software on their pc and will ask them to "allow them access" if you need help. A completely unnecessary setup (if spying on...

Second Asus. Motherboards are built to last a thousand years. :)
