By |2024-01-19T17:30:46-04:00January 19, 2024|Games|Comments Off on FreeCash Offers: Scam and Real offers for Android

So is FreeCash a site that you can trust? After using it for almost 3 months I can say that it is trusted, in the sense that they do send your reward coins and also that they allow you to cash out. According to their on site, FreeCash has paid out nearly $25 million to its members since its inception and has a 4.6-star rating on Trustpilot. They were previously known as Freeskins.com but changed names in 2021 (what's more catchy than "Free Cash").

Google Play Ads – how low can they go

By |2024-01-17T08:37:59-04:00January 17, 2024|Technology|Comments Off on Google Play Ads – how low can they go

I gave up Chrome on Android and instead started using Firefox. Why? Because Firefox for Android allows you to add extensions to it, and you can easily add uBlock Origin. This way if you have an Android phone you can block ads on it with a simple tap. On Chrome for Android is more difficult to block ads, so giving up was the easiest solution here.

Duolingo free kinda’ sucks

By |2023-12-15T18:10:09-04:00December 15, 2023|Education|Comments Off on Duolingo free kinda’ sucks

I became a Duolingo Free user in 2015. Actually back then there wasn't even a paid option, it was truly free. Back then I started learning German, and even if I didn't advance too much, I could say that it helped me learn some basics. Don't ask me why though, but after a few months I stopped playing with it and never picked it up again until 2023. Boy, did it change a lot in the past 7 years. I wish I'd say it was a good change, but unfortunately I consider Duolingo Free sucks (the 2023 version that is) in comparison with the app I toyed around with in 2016.

I rarely check my Junk folder, so I'm not up to date with the latest scam attempts. However, I did check it today and noticed a subject that caught my attention: "I RECORDED YOU". I immediately realized it's a crypto scam attempt, though I wanted to share it just to make anyone aware that this is truly a scam and to remove it as soon as possible.

Ad blockers are not allowed on YouTube – bypass solutions

By |2023-10-20T14:32:10-04:00October 20, 2023|News|Comments Off on Ad blockers are not allowed on YouTube – bypass solutions

Anyway, on a totally unrelated note, Google recently changed its extension system with an update named Manifest V3, supposedly to improve security, performance, and privacy. But, and this is a big but, with this update it also introduced a limit on how extensions can modify websites and requests. This limitation affects ad blocker extensions that need to filter out ads and trackers on websites such as YouTube. Yes, you read that correctly. Google basically broke ad blockers, but not out of greed, because they only made like $30 billion in profit last year. No, it was for the good of the users ...

Weatherback: Live weather wallpaper with stunning effects

By |2023-10-11T16:52:34-04:00October 11, 2023|Other, Travel & Local|Comments Off on Weatherback: Live weather wallpaper with stunning effects

Weatherback is not your regular weather app. Meaning you won't see a widget on your home screen that shows it's XX degrees and the chances of rain/other precipitations or any other boring numbers. Weatherback cleverly tells you how the weather will be in a visually pleasing, almost senzorial way. It is a live wallpaper enhancement with stunning weather effects.
