Norton antivirus renewal code

Could use some help: PC running slow suddenly, Windows disappearing from boot menu.

2024.05.16 23:18 abductodude Could use some help: PC running slow suddenly, Windows disappearing from boot menu.

Some background information: ever since September or October of last year, my PC will experience blue screens with varying error codes, and need fresh Windows 11 installs. I have reinstalled it 6-7 times, maybe more, since then. Well, the last time I thought was successful, because it hasn't done it in a few months. But last night I got an error code that seemed to completely wipe Windows from my boot options. Stop code: KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR, and nvidmkm.sys is what failed.
I tried a couple of times to restart but, alas, no progress, so I went to be bed. Today I turned it on and Windows was there right off the bat! Great. I get in and everything is going incredibly slow, so I restart. And guess what - it's gone again. Restart twice, play with BIOS, it appears again. About to run a deep antivirus scan, computer needs to restart, it disappears again. I am at a complete loss now. I can get by when it comes to the technical aspects of PC's, seeing how I built my own, but troubleshooting is often beyond me. Thoughts?

2024.05.16 22:56 UofTComputerEngineer My thoughts (and tips) on every course I took so far (UofT Computer Engineering)

I've recently completed my third year of computer engineering at UofT, and I wanted to share my thoughts on the courses I've taken. I hope this will be beneficial to incoming first, second, and third-year engineering students. My area of depth is 6 (Software) and my areas of breadth are 4 (Control) and 5 (Computer hardware/networks).
Difficulty: How hard it was to comprehend course material and/or complete practice problems accurately. Keep in mind that difficulty is subjective but I tried to eliminate personal bias and be as objective as possible.
Workload: The amount of work to complete outside of lectures (labs, assignments, homework, studying for tests/exams).
All engineers take the exact same courses in their first year first semester and similar ones in second semester. I took these courses in 2021 during covid so some information might be outdated.
First Year Semester 1:
APS100 Orientation to Engineering:
Difficulty: 1/10 Workload: 3/10 Course Average: N/A
There is no technical material in this course. All coursework consists of Ethics analysis, creating a schedule for time management, creating your resume, and discussion board participation. During tutorials, the TA typically asks behavioral questions to the class and covers slides pertaining to engineering principles, the learning environment, test readiness, and related topics.
APS110 Engineering Chemistry and Materials Science
Difficulty: 6/10 Workload: 5/10 Course Average: B
This course blends elements of chemistry, physics, and mathematics, requiring lots of formulas and memorization. The assignments and online quizzes were moderately difficult. Not sure if he’s still teaching but Scott Ramsay was a really good professor. Really enjoyed watching his video demonstrations.
APS111 Engineering Strategies and Practices I
Difficulty: 3/10 Workload: 6/10 (Variable) Course Average: B
Students are organized into groups of 5-6 and are assigned the task of developing a solution for a client, following the engineering design process. Success in this course heavily relies on your team. Throughout the semester, there are several milestones where you need to submit large reports with your team, making it crucial to have capable teammates. Many teams resorted to last-minute cramming the night before each milestone (not a good idea). Additionally, there are two peer reviews, so make sure you contribute to avoid being perceived as an unproductive member. In most cases, you don’t need to worry about this though. You’d likely all be good friends by that point (and give each other a perfect review).
CIV100 Mechanics
Difficulty: 9/10 Workload: 9/10 Course Average: C+
The consensus among most students in my year was that this was the toughest first year course. It's incredibly calculation heavy, with questions that may appear straightforward in theory but require multiple steps to solve. Even a minor error can screw up your entire calculation process. The assignments are extremely time-consuming, and the quizzes pose significant challenges. I suggest you work in a group for the assignments. Furthermore, both the final exam and midterm were exceptionally difficult.
MAT186 Calculus I
Difficulty: 4/10 Workload: 4/10 Course Average: B
If you’ve taken IB or AP this course will be a breeze. Even without that background, it's still relatively straightforward. Very little on integrals, mostly derivatives, rates of change, and graphs. PCEs and WebWorks were trivial, and the midterm and exam were easy.
MAT188 Linear Algebra
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 7/10 Course Average: B-
The majority of the course revolves around relatively straightforward operations on matrices and vectors. However, it does introduce abstract concepts like higher-order dimensions, which may require some deeper thinking to fully grasp. Webwork assignments were slightly more challenging compared to MAT186's, and completing assignments took a while. Once again, you should work with a partner or as a group. Pay attention in the MATLAB practicals because you’ll be using MATLAB pretty often in future courses.
First Year Semester 2:
APS105 Computer Fundamentals
Difficulty: 6/10 Workload: 5/10 Course Average: B-
If you’ve taken programming in high school, you will likely find this course very easy (2/10 difficulty). The course covers simple programming syntax, along with basic sorting algorithms, without delving into more advanced concepts beyond linked lists and binary trees. I think that this was one of the more enjoyable courses of first year.
APS112 Engineering Strategies and Practices II
Difficulty: 5/10 Workload: 7/10 (Variable) Course Average: B+
This course is essentially a continuation of APS111, but with the added component of being assigned an actual client with a real-world problem statement. Each group works with a unique client, and at the end of the term, you present your final report directly to them, along with your supervisors. As with APS111, the quality of your team plays a crucial role in your success. Another thing to note is that unlike APS111, there were multiple individual assignments to complete on top of your team reports.
ECE110 Electrical Fundamentals
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload: 6/10 Course Average: C+
Definitely one of the harder first year courses. This course marks your introduction to circuits. Topics covered include capacitors, Ampere's law, Ohm's law, Kirchhoff's laws, AC/DC circuits, magnetism, Thevenin and Norton equivalents, and more. The material is extensive and requires thorough understanding, as many future courses will build upon its concepts. Make sure that you understand the content well, given its foundational importance in subsequent courses.
ECE191 Introduction to Electrical and Computer Engineering
Difficulty: 0/10 Workload: 1/10 Course Average: N/A
Seminar course. You just need to show up to the lectures (one per week) and submit a 100-ish word report about what you learned.
MAT187 Calculus II
Difficulty: 6/10 Workload: 5/10 Course Average: C+
The workload in this course is comparable to Calc I, but the content is more challenging (obviously). It delves deeper into integrals and introduces concepts like ordinary differential equations and polar coordinates. But again, you’ll manage just fine if you did decently in Calc 1, and especially if you’ve taken AP math or IB HL math.
MIE100 Dynamics
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload 4/10 Course Average: C+
I personally found this to be the most challenging course in first year, but it seems that most people disagree with me. It shares similarities with CIV100, but you’re instead dealing with dynamic systems (moving) rather than static ones (not moving). Some concepts may prove difficult to grasp initially. However, if you focus on memorizing the relevant formulas and understanding when to apply them, you should be okay. Expect an emphasis on physics in this course.
Second year was the worst (for ECE) and a very big step up from first year. If you struggled in first year, you better lock in for second year.
Second Year Semester 1:
ECE201 ECE Seminar Course
Difficulty: 0/10 Workload: 0/10 Course Average: N/A
Another seminar course, except you just need to attend 7/10 lectures to pass. Most students just scan their Tcard at the entrance then leave right after. The lectures are pretty useless except the Magellan one where they show you how to choose courses for 3rd and 4th year.
ECE212 Circuit Analysis
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 8/10 Course Average: B+
This course provides a deeper exploration of circuits, extending beyond circuit solving to include frequency and sinusoidal analysis. Questions tend to be long so careless errors will cost you. Personally, I found the labs challenging, particularly because they required working with oscilloscopes at a higher level than I was used to, and I could not for the life of me figure out how to use that thing.
ECE241 Digital Systems
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 8/10 Course Average: B-
This hardware course focuses on the foundation of hardware. A lot of the content is at the fundamental level so it’s not too hard to comprehend. However, the main challenge lies in learning Verilog, a hardware description language. I hate Verilog. All the labs are done using Verilog, and frustratingly, the course provides no instruction on the language, nor are there many helpful resources available online. This lack of guidance made what should have been straightforward labs much more difficult. Thankfully if you are in CE, you’ll never need to take another course with Verilog again. The midterm was easy but the final was borderline impossible.
ECE244 Programming Fundamentals
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 7/10 Course Average: B-
This course is the sequel to APS105, delving into more advanced concepts like pointers, constructors, polymorphism, and inheritance. Many of these topics may feel familiar if you have prior programming experience, particularly from high school. Consequently, if you're already proficient in programming, as many computer engineering students are, you should be able to navigate through this course well. The labs were generally manageable, although a couple of them were time-consuming.
MAT290 Advanced Engineering Mathematics
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload 8/10 Course Average: B
In this course, you’ll learn a lot of miscellaneous mathematical concepts that will be relevant in future courses. The goal is to establish a strong foundation to facilitate understanding in third and fourth-year courses. There is also a quiz every week. They were terrible from a time management standpoint, but as long as you spent 3-4 hours per week completing the assigned textbook questions, you should be alright since one (out of two) of the questions on the quiz is guaranteed to be an assigned textbook question (at least, that was the case when I took the course).
MAT291 Calculus III
Difficulty: 9/10 Workload 9/10 Course Average: B-
The entire workload comes from studying for those damn weekly quizzes, much like MAT290. Personally, I found it to be one of the most difficult courses I've ever taken. Think of calculus 2, but now everything is in three dimensions, encompassing concepts like surface integrals, flux integrals, and more. Additionally, the course introduces abstract topics that I still struggle to grasp. Balancing the demands of this course alongside everything else was an incredibly stressful experience.
Second Year Semester 2:
ECE216 Signals and Systems
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload:7/10 Course Average: C+
I think everyone hated this course. It was so poorly taught and the midterms felt haphazard and unpredictable. I relied on the power of BS to pass (worked surprisingly). Other than working with many graphs and MATLAB, I don’t remember much about this course because it was so uninteresting.
ECE221 Electric and Magnetic Fields
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload: 5/10 Course Average: C+
This course serves as an introduction to fields, while also expanding on the principles covered in ECE110. Many concepts build upon intuitive ideas, such as the repulsion of identical charges and attraction of opposite charges, which can make seemingly complex topics less intimidating. There are also many procedures that you need to know to solve specific types of questions. The labs are generally straightforward. You just need to follow the steps on the lab worksheet and answer a few simple questions from the TA.
ECE231 Intro to Electronics
Difficulty: 9/10 Workload: 7/10 Course Average: C+
This course is basically circuit analysis but significantly harder. It combines everything you've learned about circuits thus far, introducing new topics on top of that foundation. There are so many new concepts to learn and the final pretty much tests you on all of them. I’ve encountered multiple scenarios where I saw two concepts that I thought were completely separate from each other being integrated into a single question on an exam. Also very calculation heavy. Despite my experience in this course, I must admit Khoman Fang was a great professor.
ECE243 Computer Organization
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 6/10 Course Average: B
This course is a direct continuation of ECE241, and surprisingly, I found it a lot more enjoyable than its prerequisite. The focus is on Assembly language programming, which I found to be way more understandable compared to Verilog. Assembly operates at a fundamental level, so you’re technically working with the most basic building blocks in programming. The labs often involved seemingly simple tasks like counting to 10 on a HEX display, but the nature of Assembly meant that achieving this could require hundreds of lines of code. I appreciated these labs as they provided a refreshing change from the usual programming tasks. Final and midterm exams were relatively easy.
ECE297 Software communication and design
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload: 9/10 (Variable) Course Average: B+
Despite the demanding workload, this course was one of my favorites. The main project involved collaborating in teams of three to develop a geographical information system (similar to Google Maps). Unlike other courses where teams are assigned, here you have the freedom to choose your own teammates. Starting off, your team is given only the OpenStreetMap database, and the APIs, granting you complete control over your project's design, functionality, and optimization. Performance enhancement and pathfinding algorithms were key components of the project. It's crucial for all team members to contribute effectively for success in this course; And trust me, this is not a one or two person project. To succeed in this course, all three members must be doing their share.
Third Year:
They say that third year is the easiest year for ECE, but that depends on what courses you choose. For me, it was only slightly easier than second year but still significantly harder than first year.
APS360 Fundamentals of Deep Learning
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload : 8/10 Course Average: B+
This course felt fundamentally very different compared to the other programming related courses. If you’re unfamiliar with deep learning, the content can be overwhelming but the inner workings behind AI are both fascinating and challenging to grasp. Fortunately, much of the coding in the course revolves around preparing data, setting up AI architectures, and training/testing models, rather than building an AI from scratch. While the labs are manageable, the final project can be very time consuming, particularly as training a single model can require hours or even days. Regarding this aspect, make sure you start early. Both the midterm and final exams were quite difficult.
ECE302 Probability and Applications
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 3/10 Course Average: B-
The first half of this course is very straightforward. Just an introduction to probability. The second half is where the difficulty quickly ramps up. Make sure you don’t underestimate the second half of the course. I made the mistake of assuming the material was easy after performing well on both midterms (midterms were very easy), leading me to neglect the final third of the course so I flunked the final. FYI, our marks were determined solely by the 2 midterms and the final.
ECE344 Operating Systems
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload: 10/10 Course Average: B
This course had the most difficult and demanding labs I’ve ever seen in my life. They are due every two weeks and some of them took most students more than 15 hours to complete. I’ve seen people staying up all night in the GB computer rooms to finish these labs. One positive aspect of the course if Jon Eyolfson is your professor, is that all lectures are both recorded and live-streamed, allowing attendance in person, online synchronously, or asynchronously. But if you have Ding Yuan, good luck. I heard he is not only bad at teaching, but also makes you program an operating system from scratch. The course content is quite interesting and the Midterm and final exams were fair.
ECE345 Algorithms and Data Structures
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload: 7/10 Course Average: B+
If you're one of those programming geniuses who have been doing Leetcode since like 3 years old, you’d have likely already learned all course content before you’ve even started the course. You could probably write midterm and final exams without attending any lectures. However, if you're not as experienced, attending every lecture, taking detailed notes, and staying focused is crucial. Personally speaking, some algorithms were incredibly difficult for me to grasp, while others were simple. Assignments typically include both coding and long-answer components, which can be time-consuming, but you can work with a partner.
TEP444 Positive Psychology for Engineers
Difficulty: 1/10 Workload: 3/10 Course Average: A-
This course overall was very enjoyable and a nice refreshing experience from the other technical courses. You go on excursions to various locations with your group and write reports. It's an excellent opportunity to expand your social circle and make new friends. If you aim for an A- grade (80-85), you can breeze through with minimal effort. However, achieving a higher grade (A or A+) would require significantly more work (like 5 times more, no joke), which is not worth the extra effort in my opinion.
CSC343 Introduction to Databases
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 10/10 Course Average: Unreleased
The content of this course is actually pretty interesting and is taught well. But the assignments were excessively time consuming. There are only three in total, but each one demanded such a significant investment of time to the point where I contemplated dropping the course altogether. You do work with a partner (going solo isn’t even an option if you want to complete the assignments) but even so, be prepared to invest 15-30 hours per person, per assignment (they also mark hard). Despite the workload, I do recommend taking this course because knowing SQL can substantially benefit you in the future. Just start the assignments early. On a positive note, the midterm and final were relatively straightforward.
ECE311 Introduction to Control Systems
Difficulty: 10/10 Workload: 5/10 Course Average: C+
This course didn't come with a heavy workload, consisting only of three labs and two midterms. However, I found the content to be very challenging. It felt like they condensed and combined every concept from every engineering math and physics course into one. Topics ranged from circuits and dynamics to Laplace transforms, matrices, Bode plots, and more. It didn’t help that Prof Scardovi didn’t record any lectures, has messy handwriting, and uses a damn chalkboard instead of modern technology like other profs do. The midterms and final were somewhat lenient compared to the lectures, but this course still ended up being my lowest mark.
ECE361 Computer networks I
Difficulty: 8/10 Workload: 9/10 Course Average: B
This course requires a lot of memorization compared to other courses. You’ll have to understand calculation processes but also memorize a lot of general knowledge about networks. A problem with this course is that some concepts that show up in tests are not adequately explained in lectures. By far the best way to study is to do past exams. Professor Valaee often recycles questions, sometimes even directly copying past midterms and finals (like he did in my cohort). Unlike other courses, there is no big assignment/lab for this course, but it makes up for it with quantity. There’s a quiz every week, a wireshark lab every 2 weeks, a programming lab every 2 weeks, and a midterm. The programming labs are already difficult by themselves, but this cumulative workload felt very overwhelming.
ECE472 Engineering Economics and Entrepreneurship
Difficulty: 7/10 Workload: 5/10 Course Average: B+
This is straight up an economics course, no engineering at all. You’ll learn about investments, equity, financing, and related areas. There are 4 quizzes throughout the semester, with quiz 3 (quiz 3 specifically) being by far the hardest (average in the 50s). Since you're able to bring your textbook to the quizzes and exam, my biggest tip is to write past quiz and exam solutions in your textbook, as there's a limited pool of questions, and new questions often resemble some kind of variation of past ones.
ECE421 Introduction to Machine Learning
Difficulty: 9/10 Workload: 7/10 Course Average: unreleased
While the course content itself may be challenging, surprisingly, the midterm and final exams were pretty easy. There's a slight discorrelation between the lecture material and what appears on the exams, but relying on past exams for preparation should be enough. The course leans heavily on mathematical concepts, much more so than APS360. The assignments were difficult and tedious but I recommend you work with others to complete it.
With that, I've covered my thoughts and tips for all the engineering courses I've completed. Transitioning into your next year in engineering, particularly if you’re transitioning from high school, can feel daunting. However, remember that you're not alone in this experience – many of your peers are facing similar challenges. If you need any more advice or have questions, feel free to reach out to me via DMs!

2024.05.16 16:14 berserkerlord07 Why is the My Verizon app just ALWAYS broken ALL the time?

I feel like every time I try to navigate this app, I just get dead ends, loading screens, and just a sense that it's awful. For starters, it make me sign in over and over again every time I open the app even when I select Remember Me or whatever. The current issue I'm having though is, I don't have unlimited high speed data at the moment, I get 15gb of it every time my plan renews. Looking to upgrade to unlimited, and clearly the ads in the app WANT me to, and so I click on this option that says I can get unlimited for my discounted rate because of the loyalty discount etc etc, and yet every single time I try to go through with it, I get hit with this "We're sorry. It looks like we're having trouble connecting." screen. The buttons on the screen aren't even coded properly. The option to change your plan at the bottom of the screen literally says ${buttonName}. Gonna try to uninstall and reinstall to see if the obvious solution is the best solution but this makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes.

2024.05.16 13:42 Skeptical102 Can you give you help, advice or experiences renewing your DVLA license as a Foreigner?

Hi There, I'm an Aussie that's been living in the UK since 2001. I have ILR as I married a brit, and until this year I've had no problems renewing my DVLA license.
It's now up for renewal. DVLA won't accept my current Aussie Pass as apparent "I need to use the same one that I used when I applied for a share code". I never did, as I have a letter from the HO giving me my ILR.
The Webchat with DVLA tells me I need to get a share code. The HO site tells me I don't need a share code if I have ILR.
Anyone else had similar experiences?

2024.05.16 12:01 Plankton_Etn Storage (Developer Resources)

Unlike a centralized server operated by a single company or organisation, decentralized storage systems consist of a peer-to-peer network of user-operators who hold a portion of the overall data, creating a resilient file storage sharing system. These can be in a blockchain-based application or any peer-to-peer-based network.
The Electroneum Smart Chain itself can be used as a decentralized storage system, and it is when it comes to code storage in all the smart contracts. However, when it comes to large amounts of data, that isn’t what the Electroneum Smart Chain was designed for. The chain is steadily growing and every node on the network needs to be able to store all of the data. If the chain were to expand to large amounts of data (say 5TBs) it wouldn’t be feasible for all nodes to continue to run.
Due to these constraints, we need a different chain or methodology to store large amounts of data in a decentralized way.
When looking at decentralized storage (dStorage) options, there are a few things a user must keep in mind.
Persistence Mechanism / Incentive Structure
Blockchain-based
For a piece of data to persist forever, we need to use a persistence mechanism. For example, on the Electroneum Smart Chain, the persistence mechanism is that the whole chain needs to be accounted for when running a node. New pieces of data get tacked onto the end of the chain, and it continues to grow - requiring every node to replicate all the embedded data.
This is known as blockchain-based persistence.
The issue with blockchain-based persistence is that the chain could get far too big to upkeep and store all the data feasibly (e.g. many sources↗ estimate the Internet to require over 40 Zetabytes of storage capacity).
The blockchain must also have some type of incentive structure. For blockchain-based persistence, there is a payment made to the validator. When the data is added to the chain, the validators are paid to add the data on.
Contract-based
Contract-based persistence has the intuition that data cannot be replicated by every node and stored forever, and instead must be upkept with contract agreements. These are agreements made with multiple nodes that have promised to hold a piece of data for a period of time. They must be refunded or renewed whenever they run out to keep the data persisted.
In most cases, instead of storing all data on-chain, the hash of where the data is located on a chain gets stored. This way, the entire chain doesn’t need to scale to keep all of the data.
Additional considerations
IPFS↗is a distributed system for storing and accessing files, websites, applications, and data. It doesn’t have a built-in incentive scheme, but can instead be used with any of the contract-based incentive solutions above for longer-term persistence. Another way to persist data on IPFS is to work with a pinning service, which will “pin” your data for you. You can even run your own IPFS node and contribute to the network to persist your and/or other’s data for free!
Data Retention
In order to retain data, systems must have some sort of mechanism to make sure data is retained.
Challenge mechanism
One of the most popular ways to make sure data is retained, is to use some type of cryptographic challenge that is issued to the nodes to make sure they still have the data. A simple one is looking at Arweave’s proof-of-access. They issue a challenge to the nodes to see if they have the data at both the most recent block and a random block in the past. If the node can’t come up with the answer, they are penalized.
Consensus
Most of these tools have their own version of a consensus mechanism but generally they are based on either proof-of-work (PoW) or proof-of-stake (PoS).
Related Tools
IPFS - InterPlanetary File System is a decentralized storage and file referencing system for Ethereum.

2024.05.16 11:18 EchoWaveRider I want to build healthcare solution that enable healthcare providers generate more revenue and help patients to get better care or treatment. I would like to get experts feedback and comment on the use case we have identified.

My core domain is software and data engineering. My business partner is a healthcare professional. We would like to build a healthcare solution that enables healthcare providers to generate more revenue while helping patients receive better care and treatment.
We have identified a use case for patients who are admitted to the hospital without health insurance. Healthcare providers are responsible for providing treatment and cannot deny emergency care to patients without insurance. The cost of treatment goes unclaimed due to lack of coverage, and the long-term placement of the patient for safe discharge becomes the hospital's liability. In many cases, non-urgent care facilities like nursing homes do not accept patients without coverage unless the hospital sponsors them financially for a certain period. This leads to a loss of revenue and resources for the hospital with no means to recover the cost of treatment. It also becomes challenging for the hospital to safely discharge the patient when family support is unavailable.
Every state has a Medicaid program to cover treatment costs for eligible patients (based on income and age). State governments are taking steps to streamline the enrollment process. However, patients who are not already enrolled in Medicaid programs and need urgent care have no means or resources to apply for these health plans in time to get coverage for their treatment.
Currently, hospitals have hired social workers to apply for Medicaid programs on behalf of patients. However, the enrollment process requires eligibility verification, patient data collection, and documents for identity, income, address, and citizenship proof. Additionally, multiple cases need to be handled simultaneously in large healthcare facilities. We believe this process can be streamlined for both patients and healthcare facilities via a Patient Case Management Solution. This solution can be used by healthcare providers for the end-to-end life-cycle management of all enrollment/renewal applications on behalf of the patients. We also plan to provide full service, including consultants and case managers, to handle cases for healthcare facilities.
We would like to know if this type of service or solution has any business value proposition for healthcare providers. Any suggestions or feedback will help us successfully implement this solution. We also plan to integrate other services like Patient Intake and Prior Authorization, Coding and Quotes, Claims Processing, and Denial Management as a full suite of applications.

2024.05.16 08:27 Ok-Broccoli3582 Laptop Security: How Do You Keep Your Data Safe?

Security is a really important issue, since laptops hold not only a large amount of private information, but also all our work. What do you do to keep your data safe? Let's share some best practices with regard to antivirus, firewalls, VPN, and physical security measures. Here are some important tips to get the conversation started:
  1. Antivirus Software: Your First Line of Defense
    • Get Reliable Antivirus Software: Buy popular and reliable antivirus software to protect your device from malware, ransomware, and other malicious threats. Norton, Bitdefender, and McAfee are some of the commonly used antiviruses.
    • Regular Scans and Updates: Ensure that your antivirus is scheduled for regular scans, and it has up-to-date virus-definition databases.
  2. Firewalls: Keeping Out Unwanted Traffic
    • Turn on the Built-In Firewalls: Ensure that built-in firewalls on most operating systems, like Windows Defender Firewall for Windows and firewall settings in macOS, are on.
    • Additional Firewalls: It is recommended to purchase additional hardware or software firewalls in hot spots.
  3. Virtual Private Networks: Protecting Your Online Activity
    • Use a VPN: This will encrypt your internet connection and shield your online activities from prying eyes. This is very important when connecting to a Wi-Fi network.
    • Get a Trustworthy VPN Service: Purchase a good VPN service from well-known providers like ExpressVPN, NordVPN, or CyberGhost.
  4. Password Management: Strong and Unique Passwords
    • Create Strong Passwords: Use a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters to create strong passwords. Make your passwords hard to guess by avoiding including easily guessable information, such as birthdays or common words.
    • Use a Password Manager: A password manager, such as LastPass or 1Password, can create and remember strong, unique passwords for all of your accounts.
  5. Encryption: Use Encryption to Protect Data
    • Encrypt Disk: Use the built-in, full disk encryption tools such as BitLocker on Windows and FileVault on MacOS, which will automatically encrypt your data in case your laptop is lost or stolen.
    • Encrypt Sensitive Files: You might need to encrypt specific sensitive files or folders for added protection. Utilize VeraCrypt software to achieve this.
  6. Backups: Regularly Back Up Your Data
    • Back Up Your Data Regularly: Back up your data from time to time on an external hard drive or other secure cloud service. This will help you restore the data to another device in the case of hardware failure or damage due to a cyberattack.
    • Use Automated Backup Solutions: Use automatic backup tools like Backblaze or Acronis, which will help you keep your data backed up automatically.
  7. Physical Security: Use Physical Security for Your Hardware
    • Use Laptop Locks: Use physical locks for your laptop when in public or shared spaces to avoid theft.
    • Be Careful: Be aware of your surroundings and never leave your laptop unattended in public places.
  8. Additional Tips and Best Practices
    • Keep Your Operating System and Software Updated: Regularly update your operating system and all software so as to patch any security vulnerabilities.
    • Be careful with emails and links: Do not click on suspicious links or download attachments from unknown sources to avoid phishing attacks.
    • Use Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Whenever possible, enable two-factor authentication for your account as an extra layer of security.

2024.05.16 08:12 Conscious_Cricket_85 Citing California Family Code 7826

My ex-girlfriend and her lawyer are citing California Family Code 7826 to take away my parenting rights based on my disability even though I have had close contact with my daughter via videochats via zoom for almost 3 years. There is very little substantiated evidence against me in the petition and 2 of the other laws cited where proved to be false with-in my case. I haven't seen my daughter physically for 5 years now, and I miss her dearly. I have court on Friday, and I'm super stressed out because I have to appear before the judge and the court. My ex is using a renewed restraining order against me to not participate in court ordered zoom calls, and visits. It's set to expire in 2028. I'm scared now because I just read the entire report from the court investigator and she said a lot of good things but ultimately did not suggest anything in my favor as she recommended that my rights to parent be terminated because my daughter might have "distressing" conversations. Still have a chance?

Strange Issue With Network (Cont.)
So I made a post about a week and a half ago which is this one, describing a very strange phenomenon my windows machine is having that I cannot for the life of me solve. I'd like to see if some new eyes could look at it, in addition to the new things I've uncovered/done.
I've done what the comments suggested. I flushed my DNS, did ipconfig /release and /renew neither of which did anything. A network reset under "Advanced network settings" may have helped, as sometimes when I do it and run off of the restart, I don't seem to have the issue. But then when I shut off my PC and turn it back on, it happens again. Sometimes not at all though.
In control panel, network and internet, network and sharing center, I can select my connection and look at the IPv4 and v6 connectivity. Most of the time, not always, both have "Internet" when the machine is working fine, while most of the time when my issue occurs, IPv6 hits me with a "No network access".
I've disabled IPv6 item in the properties button on this same panel. I've manually preferred 8888 as my DNS server and 8844 as my alternative DNS server.
I've done pretty much every single clean, health check and repair command I could find. And I've also tried turning off my firewall completely. Nothing has helped.
I do not have any VPNs installed (that I know of), and only the network device that I'm wanting to use is enabled anyways.
After further observing the issue, I've also noticed a few things. The first, and perhaps this is really telling or it is really pointless, is that I cannot connect to localhost. As in, I have a program running that should run on local host, and it does normally, but when the issue arises, I get "This site can't be reached". Furthermore, I've discovered that the issue almost seems deteriorative. I'm not sure if this is just stuff getting pushed out of ram or something, but I feel as though I can access less websites, or do fewer things the longer the issue persists. Like I might be able to browse forums while the issue is happening initially, but after a few hours I can no longer connect.
Finally, I ran a network report using netsh wlan show wlanreport to see if I could get anything. Not too sure how to read this, or what the important bits are, but I've got failures, 7 warnings, and 0 successes, as per the image attached. Then I get a bunch of descriptions of my sessions. I only see time stamps of activity at the very start of my PC booting up, and then a couple of messages around the time I shutdown, but nothing inbetween or around when the issue strikes for most of them. I don't have an accurate time of boot up and issue arising, but there are a few that have a random "WLAN Extensibility module has stopped." like 3 hours into use, but it seems to also have one at the start and end too and most others do not. Disconnect reasons are varied. My most recent one is "Unknown" and there are a few others which have that.
Any and all possible suggestions, troubleshooting steps, or solutions would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Edit: Exact error code on chrome is:
"This site can't be reached
[websiteurl] is currently unreachable.
Try running Windows Network Diagnostics. (Does nothing)
ERR_CONNECTION_FAILED"
