Macbook under $500? Reliable place to buy used/refurb?

I think for such an amount you will not be able to find a poppy with such parameters. Try to increase the amount and buy what you need. I don't think it's worth buying something that you won't be able to use for a long time.

Just picked up a MacBook Pro from Goodwill thrift store for $14.91 -- and it works

You are lucky that works. I recommend not storing important information on laptop. You can lose everything at once. And you don't know when it will come.

[Bloomberg] Chinese "spy" chip, allegedly found in SuperMicro server mobos made in China. ALERT!

I agree. I can't feel safe anywhere. Hacks occur more often. I hope that this will end someday.

Think I got hacked

I'm sure that this is a fraud. Don't pay attention to this letter. You need to monitor security, but you shouldn't send money.

Point the obvious out to me in this email

I would seriously think about creating a new mail. You keep all levels of protection, but it remains unsafe for you.

VPN recommendation?

Try Astrill. I liked him. There is one drawback. He asks to verify the account by entering the code, which should come to the SMS. If it does not bother you, then this is a good service for you.

Ergonomic chair, office chair, gaming chair?

I'm using a game chair. I had it and I forgot about the pain in the back and any discomfort when working on a personal PC. This is my opinion but, of course, the choice is yours.

Is iMessage completely reliable for you?

I didn't have problems with iMessage. All messages are always delivered and received. I like the new effects for sending messages. It's great. However, I can't say that I'm sure of the security of the transmission of such messages. I won't send a password from a credit card or access to a...

Dozens of iOS apps secretly collect location history for data monetization

I'm sure that even an outage will not help. All social networks, messengers, browsers, phones, different services collect geodata. I would also like to hide, but this isn't possible in my opinion.

Security Solutions for Windows XP?

I think any system can hack. It all depends on time and professionalism. I recommend working with the most reliable sources. This is controversial because in our time there are no really reliable sources.

www.paypal.com uses an invalid security certificate?

I don't know what the problem is, but I had a similar problem. This problem was resolved on its own in a few days. I was able to go in and carry out the necessary operations. I think this is an internal service error that doesn't depend on the user.

HELP! I Received Email Saying They Have My Password!

I recommend changing the password as soon as possible. Also use all possible protection levels for your mail. Use as a fashion more complicated password. I don't know for what purpose this is done, but the opportunity to crack the mail exists.

Skype spammer / virus?

I'm sure it's a virus. I had the same situation with my friend. I was not aware and opened the link, all the information on my computer was infected. I couldn't restore everything. Now I don't open any links from my friends if I'm not sure what it was he sent.
