How to opt-out all ads in browser using AdChoices?

There are ads everywhere. The Internet is not the same as it was some years ago. AdChoices is a self-regulatory program for online internet-based advertising that exists in the United States, Canada and across Europe. The program calls for advertising companies to establish and enforce responsible privacy practices for interest-based advertising, aimed to give consumers enhanced transparency and control. Companies adhere to a set of principles that are enforced by accountability programs.

So, there we go. Let's dig into it.

When you're seeing any ad just click on the AdChoices icon to get to your settings. Or alternatively you can directly goto the site of YourAdChoices.

AdChoices Logo

On the home page, head over to Control.

Now select Visit the Consumer Choice Page



It will redirect you to WebChoices.


Then follow the steps in the wizard.

It will take some time and show you the results.

Then hit Continue.


Opt-out the ones you want or simply select all.


After completion, you'll be shown:



Then View Updated Results.


That's it.


This will work until your cookies are preserved. So to prevent your required cookies from bing deleted you can install the Extension Protect My Choices for your browser. This one is for Chrome:


 You can find the extention for Firefox, Internet Explorer or any other easily.

So that's how we do it.

Best Gaming Laptops You Can Buy Right Now

Gaming Laptops are no joke. They pack some serious performance under the hood that even some mid-range desktops cannot match. They’re often considered as huge, heavy and fat machines with red and blue paint all over their chassis, but that’s not the case at present. Over the past few years, manufacturers have introduced laptops packing more and more power in a thinner and lighter chassis. If you take a look at a gaming laptop from ten years ago and compare to anything from the present, I can guarantee that your jaw will drop and you’ll start wondering how technology has improved over the decade. Here are the top 10 performance grade laptops to make your selection from. 1. ASUS ROG G701VI Gaming Laptop  Unlocked Intel i7-7820HK processor 64GB of DDR4 RAM (yes, you read that right!) 1 TB NVMe SSD Overclockable GTX 1080 desktop class graphics card 17.3-inch 120Hz Full HD IPS panel with NVIDIA G-Sync 2.

How to verify your downloaded files using MD5 Checksum on Windows?

MD5 stands for Message Digest version 5 . The MD5 algorithm takes a file (the “message”) of any size, and reduces it down to a code that looks like this: “ac30ce5b07b0018d65203fbc680968f5″ (the “digest”). The brilliant thing about the MD5 algorithm is that if the message changes by so much as a single byte, it will produce a completely different digest. An MD5 sum is a string of letters and numbers that acts like a fingerprint for a file. If two files have the same MD5 sum, the files are exactly alike - which is why MD5 "fingerprints" can verify whether or not your downloaded file got corrupted in transit, hence it is used to verify the integrity of files, as virtually any change to a file will cause its MD5 hash to change. MD5 digests have been widely used in the software world to provide some assurance that a transferred file has arrived intact. For example, file servers often provide a pre-computed MD5 (known as md5sum) checksum for the files, so that a user can compare th

Running Windows apps on your Android device using Wine

The title seemed like it's reverse. Didn't it? haha Yes, I'm not talking about running Android apps in Windows, I'm talking about running Windows x86 apps in your Android!!! Developers from CodeWeavers have just released version 3.0 of the Wine compatibility layer for Linux-based systems, which can now be built into an APK package and installed on your Android device. Earlier it could power Chromebooks to do the same. Wine 3.0 release represents a year of development effort and over 6,000 individual changes. You can get the full documentation here . Image source :Android Police Although you’ll need an x86 Android device to take full advantage of it. Wine does support ARM devices, but you can only use programs that were ported to Windows RT. You can find a few examples here. The Wine project is working on using QEMU to emulate x86 CPU instructions on ARM, but that’s not complete yet. XDA Developers forum has a list of such apps that can be run full-fledge
