How to Take Screenshots on Samsung Galaxy with Your Palm

Taking screenshots is a quick, useful way to save whatever is displayed on your device screen into a static digital image, which is then filed away in your phone’s Gallery. Also called a “screen grab” or “screen capture,” a screenshot can display something that would be difficult to explain in words, highlight a problem when troubleshooting, explain a specific screen to your audience, illustrate a process, and save configuration settings for later use. Whether you want to capture something humorous on Facebook, your favorite team's match schedule or a recipe perhaps, screenshots offer an easy way to save and share things. If you’re using a Samsung Galaxy device, you can even take screenshots with just a swipe of your palm.

Taking Screenshots Using Your Palm

1.Place your palm vertically on one side of your device. Once you’ve decided to capture a particular display, slowly swipe your hand across to the other side of the screen, either left to right or right to left.

2.Remember to keep your palm in contact with the screen at all times. If not, your screenshot might not be captured clearly or at all.

3.Wait for the “you’ve saved a screenshot” message. You will see it on your device screen if the screen capture was successful.

4.Check the screenshot. To see if the captured image is to your liking, pull down the notification bar, look for the item labelled “Screenshot captured,” and tap on it.

• Alternatively, you can also go to the Gallery in your device, and check in the Screenshots folder.

How to Subnet Using VLSM

How to Subnet Using VLSM

How to Subnet Using VLSM

One method for subnetting is done using the method known as VLSM or Variable Length Subnet Mask. This is an alternative to CLSM (constant length subnet mask), in that using VLSM you subnet a network by applying a different subnet mask for the various subnet that you create. This method is preferred when the various subnets have substantial differences in the number of hosts that they need per subnet. In situations some subnets may only need a few addresses while others require a lot more.

Using VLSM can accomplish this by wasting as few address as possible.

• Suppose you are given the address block of 192.168.10.0/24 and you need the following requirements:
• subnet A ~ 66 hosts
• subnet B ~ 10 hosts
• subnet C ~ 22 hosts
• subnet D ~ 2 hosts

1.List all of your possible subnets.

• /24 = 254 hosts
• /25 = 126 hosts
• /26 = 64 hosts
• /27 = 32 hosts
• /28 = 16 hosts
• /29 = 6 hosts
• /30 = 2 hosts

2.Arrange your requirements in descending order.

• Subnet A - 66
• Subnet C - 22
• Subnet B - 10
• Subnet D - 2

3.Assign the appropriate subnet masks to each subnet.

• Allocate the First highest subnet
  • Assign 192.168.10.20 mask /25 for subnet A to satisfy there need for 66 hosts. The last octet of the subnet mask will be 1000000 (255.255.255.128)
• Assign the next highest subnet
  • Assign 192.168.10.128 the mask /27 for subnet C; the last octet of the subnet mask will be 11100000 (255.255.255.224)
• Assign the next highest subnet
  • Assign 192.168.10.160 the mask /28 for subnet B; the last octet of the subnet mask will be 11110000 (255.255.255.240)
• Assign the last subnet
  • Assign 192.168.10.176 the mask /30 for subnet D; the last octet of the subnet mask will be 11111100 (255.255.255.252).

4.Review the Subnetting summary.

• Subnet A = 192.168.10.0/25 ~126 hosts (needed 66)
• Subnet C = 192.168.10.128/27 ~ 30 hosts (needed 22)
• Subnet B = 192.168.10.160/28 ~ 14 hosts (needed 10)
• Subnet D = 192.168.10.176/30 ~ 2 hosts (needed 2)

How to Style a Sticky Page Footer with CSS3

How to Style a Sticky Page Footer with CSS3

How to Style a Sticky Page Footer with CSS3

Styling web page's footer used to be one of the most annoying task in the website design process.


1.Make sure that all top and bottom margins of the footer inner elements are zero - or at least don't affect the whole footer bottom. The recommended is zero, though.

2.Give the footer a position which is "Absolute". Absolute position is telling the element to have a fixed place inside the page (not the screen) and it doesn't change whatever happens.

3.Until now, the element was 'told' to stick in 'some place', but not where. So, we will add a bottom of zero, right of zero and left of zero. That will make the footer just stick to the bottom of the page.

4.Check your code.

• footer{position: absolute;bottom: 0;right:0;left:0;}

How to Shut Down a Computer Using Notepad

How to Shut Down a Computer Using Notepad

How to Shut Down a Computer Using Notepad

Notepad, Windows' free text editor, is also a competent code editing program. You can use some simple Windows commands in Notepad to create a file that will shut down your computer when you run it. This is great if you want to save some clicks for future shut downs, or you want to play a prank on a friend.

1.Open Notepad. This is the free text editing program that comes with every version of Windows. You can use it to create a command that, when run, will shut down Windows for you.

• You can find Notepad by clicking the Start menu and selecting "Programs" → "Accessories" → "Notepad". You can also click the Start menu, typenotepad, and press ↵ Enter.

2.Type .shutdown.exe -s on the first line. This is the command to shut down the computer.

3.Add a timer by using the .-t flag. By default, the shutdown process will be delayed by 30 seconds. You can change this by using the -t gflag with the number of seconds you want to delay.

• For example, to create a shutdown command that waits 45 seconds, typeshutdown.exe -s -t 45.
• To create a shutdown command that shuts the computer down immediately, typeshutdown.exe -s -t 00.

4.Add a message to be displayed. If you want, you can add a personalized message to the shut down notice by using the -c flag. Using the above example, typeshutdown.exe -s -t 45 -c "comment". The comment must be in quotes.^[1]

• For example, you can let the user know how long until the shutdown begins by typing shutdown.exe -s -t 45 -c "Computer will shut down in 45 seconds".

5.Click "File" and select "Save As". You will need to save the file as a batch file, which Windows can execute to run the shutdown command.

6.Click the "Save as type" drop-down menu and select "All Files (*.*)". This will allow you to change the file type.

7.Delete the ..txt from the end of the file name. Replace it with .bat.

• If you don't see the three letter file extensions, click here.

8.Save the file. A new copy will be created with the .bat extension, and it will have a different icon than a standard text file.

9.Run the newly-created file to run your shutdown process. The shutdown will occur according to the rules you created.

• Make sure you've saved anything you need to before running the shut down program.

How to Restore Your Computer

How to Restore Your Computer

How to Restore Your Computer

When a newly-installed program goes haywire and starts wreaking havoc on your system, it can be frustrating trying to get your computer back under your control. Luckily, there's a solution available for both Windows and Mac users that keeps your files intact while rolling back any negative system changes. Follow this guide to learn how to restore your Mac or PC.

Method 1:- Restoring Windows

1.Understand how the restore process works. Windows creates a system restore point every 7 days, and every time a new Windows update is installed. Windows can roll back to previous settings without affecting any files you have edited or created since then.

• System Restore does not backup files, so it can’t be used to recover files that have been deleted.

2.Launch System Restore. Open the Start menu and type System Restore into the search bar. Select System Restore from the list of programs. Close any programs that may be running on your computer during the restore process.

3.Select the restore point. System Restore will present you with a calendar or a list containing the restore points on your computer. Select a restore point from before your computer began malfunctioning and click Next.

4.Wait for the restore process to finish. Once the restore process is complete, Windows will reboot the computer.

Method 2 :- Restoring Mac OS X

1.Understand your recovery options. Mac has several different recovery options, but in order to perform a restore, you must have previously configured a Time Capsule backup. Otherwise, your options are limited to repairing the hard disk or formatting and reinstalling a fresh copy of OS X.

2.Configure a Time Capsule backup. Connect an external hard drive to your Mac that is equal or greater in size to your Mac’s internal hard drive. If you have never set up a Time Capsule before, OS X will ask if you want to configure the newly connected drive as one. Select Use as Backup Disk.

• Select “Encrypt backup Disk” if you want to add password protection to your backup file.

3.Wait for your backup to complete. You can schedule automatic backups and specify specific files in the Options menu.

4.Restore a Time Machine backup. Reboot the Mac and hold down the Command key + R while the system boots up. This will open the OS X Recovery Tool. From here you can pick your recovery option. Select Restore From Time Machine Backup to load your latest disk image from the external drive.

• If you have multiple backups stored on the Time Capsule, you will be given a list to choose from. Pick one from before you started having issues with the computer.
• Unlike System Restore in Windows, you can use a Time Capsule backup to retrieve files that were deleted in the past, as long as you have a backup from when the file existed.

5.Restoring without a Time Capsule backup. If you don’t have a Time Capsule backup, then the only way to restore OS X is by formatting and reinstalling. You can do this from the OS X Recovery Tool. Press Command+R while rebooting the Mac. Select Reinstall Mac OS X.

• Note: You will need to be connected to the internet in order to successfully reinstall your copy of Mac OS X without the disc.
• Reinstalling the operating system will delete all of your saved data, programs, and settings.
