• What steps do you take to protect your OpSec?

  I also recommend an adblocker like Adblock plus or a privacy browser like Brave to limit the amount they can learn about you when not in Private Mode. Add more gray man to your everyday web use. You can whitelist sites you trust, but you still really should not trust those trackers. Source: 8 months ago

• How to block YT ads like a champ

  If you can, try to use alternative browsers such [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/new/) and [Brave](https://brave.com/) rather than just Google Chrome. Also these browsers have more privacy features, are frequently updated and are Open-source. Source: 8 months ago

• I NEED HELP! How can I fix this?

  I use an app to check system temps: OpenHardwareMonitor. Some people like SpeedFan, does most of the same stuff. Source: over 1 year ago

• Question - Are the loading times supposed to be this bad right now??

  That's not super common (but it does happen ofc). It might be worth running a tool to scan the drive and take a peek at the SMART data. I typically use Speedfan https://almico.com/speedfan.php. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Computer has come back from a repair shop wiped and is missing A vital app I used to control fan speeds and I cant redownload it. Any alternative apps?

  You'll get better gpu support from Afterburner, but if you have a weird chipset or an incompatible fan controller, good old SpeedFan still has a few tricks. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Computer Software for me :)

  Speedfan Freeware gives you some info about your temps, but its mostly used to set up your custom fan control, such as increasing rpm of your front intake fans when temp of GPU and/or CPU reaches a certain point and much more, how much you can do with it depends on the fan controller chip that is used on your mainboard, so you mileage may vary.
