How to get premium productivity tools for free 😯

Want to get a custom domain name, MongoDB tools, canva.com, unity, and many more for free. When I was just learning web development earlier when I was in college I always wanted to host it somewhere and get a domain name but I was not ready to pay for that as I just wanted to see my static webpages on the web was my only intention, back then I used 000webhosting to host my projects but they had weird and lengthy domain names which became hard for me to share it with my faculty or colleges. So then my quest began to look for free offerings on the internet. To my luck I found GitHub providing several free tools for students which are extremely useful, So I would like to share how anyone can get this benefit from GitHub and use those powerful and useful tools. Let's get started. Head to GitHub Student Developer Pack make sure you already have a GITHUB account or create one by clicking on the link provided. Then choose student or faculty according to your academic status.

THM — RUST — [task 13] challenge - writeup

Before starting this you must get familiar with all the previous tasks and run some code in the tasks and get familiar with error handling and using crates. If you have difficulty completing the previous tasks here is a walkthrough video of them. TryHackMe — learn Rust — [Task 13] : So as given the string is already encrypted and all you have to do is to decrypt in the order of rot13 -> base64 -> ROT13 -> plaintext and find the flag. To do that you can head to https://crates.io/ to find external packages which will decrypt the text for you out of the box, so search for packages such as base64 and rot13 to make use of them to use them in our code. So here are some packages which I used cipher-crypt = “0.17.0” base64 = “0.12.3” will use cipher-crypt for rot13 and base64 for base 64 decryption. So now you can add them to your dependencies in Cargo.toml file(as below) Now you are all set to use the packages it in your code. Then you can import these packages in your code as be

Changing python version in gitpod

I have always had this problem modifying using a particular version of python on gitpod. Until I knew this simple trick to switch between the python versions. If you have not heard of gitpod its time for you to use it as running code online instead of local machine helps you when you have a CPU intensive processes and there are a lot of free to use online web apps that enable you to start with using powerful CPU and extends to GPU and TPU as well. I will be sharing a blog post soon on all the free tools you could use to boost up your productivity. So if you are already using gitpod and want to switch between python versions its simpler than you think Run this to check all the python versions available:    pyenv versions So to install a new version of python you simply have to run this:   pyenv install 3.7.6 (Or whatever version you want) That will basically download and install. Now you need to make sure to configure it for the existing workspace, to do that you simpl

Reasons not to buy Akaso action camera if you are from india

Recently I made a full review of the action camera I brought after doing a ton of research and time. Having used it for a couple of months I feel extremely glad that it meets up to my expectations. But recently, I accidentally tipped off the camera without an external case and it cracked my lens. This, in turn, added a shady spot on my phone or video and I cannot use that anymore (Some phones of the cracked lens below)     I immediately mailed the akaso team to ask if there is anything they could do but unfortunately, this was their response. Oops, that was not what I was expecting and then I asked them I could get any details of the replacement parts or anything like that so that I can order it online. But that didn't happen it took a lot of time for them to respond me back(I have been bugging them on Facebook and email).  But after some time they left me with this response which I had no other choice but to accept. After getting the 50%refund I tho

Best and free NTFS tool for mac

Early recently I had my internal memory of my mac stocked up and I had to rely on storing my excess data onto my external hard disk which most have to do as we do not have an option otherwise to increase the internal storage of the machine itself. I pulled up my external hard disk and boom to my wonder it doesn't have the write permissions as it's of `NTFS` format. So after a quick search, it was evident that there are a lot of software that can mount my NTFS drive namely Microsoft NTFS for Mac by Paragon Software Microsoft NTFS for Mac by Tuxera But there all are restricted and you can use it for a limited period of time and they had hefty prices to pay for, So instead after a long search and trying out various tools here are my list of best picks for the free software available that will definitely help you out. easyuefi ~ ntfs-for-mac  ~ I myself been using it for a while now. mounty I will be updating the list every time when I find new software availabl

Best budget action camera to buy in 2020

Hey, are you looking for a budget action camera which gives you the best image quality and other specs and do not want to invest on the top end model then you are at the right place I will give you my thoughts on how I researched on to get the best action camera that suits my requirements? As there are a lot of action cameras popping up these days it's getting difficult to choose the best one so I would like to concentrate on the quality of the video along with image stabilization as they are a priority for most of the people who are vlogging or recording some videos for fun outdoor. My ultimate recommendation would be "Akaso V50X" * Click on the image to get more details. It can shoot in 4k ~ 30fps and also can shoot at 20MP/12MP/8MP. It does have a 2 Inch Touch Screen with IPS Display which is required for most of the actions camera to interact and configuring the settings with ease. It also has an inbuilt WIFI which can be used to share videos across your devices. You
