Since Windows 7, we have had
access to this great little accessory.
If you are not already using it – read
on to see if it might help you.
Instead of 20 different post-it notes
stuck around the outside of your
monitor, you can use Sticky Notes to
have them appear on your computer
desktop. Less chance of one of them
falling off and not getting done.
You can do away with putting
passwords on a post-it note, instead
hide it in a Sticky Note.
But what I use it for is my current
ToDo list, and my “Don’t forget these
things” list.<br />

appreciation event and offering a huge discount to new and existing customers—by selling the iPhone 6S for $1

Why are they offering such an incredible deal to United
Kingdom residents? The Apple marketing team explains:</em> "Last year, the United Kingdom market share may have
dropped 35% and is losing to Samsung's Galaxy products worldwide. Apple retailers need to capture United
Kingdom users by liquidating extremely low-priced iPhone 6S devices. In this way, people can become repeat
customers who will spread the brand loyalty to their friends."</pre>

Your Netflix account is also a target. <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 23px; padding: 0px 0px 14px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"The black market for stolen account details was also gaining traction, Mr Savvides said, with everything from Netflix to stolen credit card details earning criminals cash.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“A Netflix account now sells for 25c. They sell these accounts to a bad guy in lots of one thousand, and he sets up a pirate network and sells access to the service for $1 a month,” he said.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“You can buy PlayStation accounts for $7 each and then there’s credit card details. If you get extra information like CCV numbers and expiry dates, you can get $40 per account for that information.”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mr Savvides said the introduction of a cash price for accounts was one of the reasons online threats were becoming so sophisticated, with call centre-like setups, ransomware help lines for hackers, and a more nine-to-five style of operation.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">New TV buyers will also have to find a source of HDR content to make the most of the televisions, with only streaming TV service Netflix offering it so far.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Australian TV buyers are already choosing big screens with Ultra High-Definition resolution, however, with LG reporting UHD screens made up 42 per cent of television value last year, up from 25 per cent in 2014."</span></div>

Be very careful and make sure you have a strong #iCloud password! <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span data-offset-key="4v7gt-4-0" style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span data-text="true">"</span></span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.5;">First and foremost, make sure that your iCloud account has a very secure password. Longer is better. As long as your password is long, and is not a quote from a book, movie, song or other media, and it’s not a common expression, and it’s not something that could be guessed with a little cyberstalking, it does not need to be horribly complex.</span></span><br />
<div style="-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A password like “horse airplane rutabaga flashlight” is far more secure than a complex but shorter password like “h@c|<me.”</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Second, DO NOT use the same password on any other site!</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ideally, every online account should have a different password, and you should be using a password manager (like 1Password or LastPass) to keep track of all of them. This prevents situations where a server gets compromised and leaks your password, and then the hacker is able to use that password to access all your other accounts."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Google is investigating whether the encryption used for emails as part of its End-To-End project can be applied to other products. Snapchat, the photo- and video-sharing service, is also at work on a more secure messaging system, The Guardian added.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Encryption has been a hot-button topic lately because of Apple's battle with the US Department of Justice. The DOJ has been trying to force the company to unlock an iPhone 5C used by one of the shooters who killed 14 people in the San Bernardino, California, massacre in December. But the renewed encryption efforts by Facebook and the other tech companies started before Apple's fight with the DOJ, The Guardian said.</span></div>

The announcement was grim news for roughly 3,000 staff working in Dick Smith's 363 stores across Australia and New Zealand, who were told their stores would be shuttered by late April.</span></span><br />
<div style="line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As part of the closure process, Ferrier Hodgson announced a fire sale to clear excess stock, fixtures and essentially anything that wasn't bolted down, all in order to raise money for creditors.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, it seems, there's more up for grabs.</span></div>

The infected app was distributed from the official Transmission website, but with a different code signature than the normal one previously used to sign the Transmission app, implying that the app itself had been modified and re-signed by the attacker (although this has not yet been confirmed).</span></span><br />

Initially this means better live video and match updates in sporting stadiums and other arenas, but with the rollout of the related Media Optimised Network (MON) you could see easier access to software updates and even something Telstra is calling "content prepositioning": Pre-loading content on your phone so it's already there if you decide to access it.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">High-quality video calling over LTE (ViLTE) is also on the cards, joining the already-launched Voice over LTE (VoLTE) for compatible devices. Voice over WiFi is coming in the first half of 2016, with customers using VoLTE soon able to have voice calls swap seamlessly from mobile data to home fixed broadband."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"If tracking the people you love sounds shady, or you're worried about spying, don't worry. These Android and iPhone apps are safe and I've used all the ones I recommend below. Contacts have to agree to be tracked, and the apps come with very clear instructions for use.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you read through each selection, bear in mind that this is not an exact science and that GPS signals determine how precisely locations can be calculated. What's more, none of these will work with the phone turned off."</span></div>

Then, when you turn your computer back on, Windows will use these saved files to boot up quicker -- basically, booting from hibernate instead of from scratch.</span></span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 23.8px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For obvious reasons, fast startup only works if you have hibernate enabled (learn how to enable/disable hibernate here). Also, fast startup only affects shutdowns, not restarts."</span></div>

For example, Aggressive Doze starts your phone hibernating within a few minutes after you stop using it, rather than many hours (like when you're asleep). Shallow Hibernation (for power users) suspends background functions without actually stopping the tasks."</span></div>
