Top 5 Tech Myths..!!

Today we are going to take a look at the top 5 tech myths and when i say top in this case it means the top 5 that are sort of floating around right now.
Some of you may already know these myths and some of them you might actually be a victim of thinking are true ..So with out any further due let's take a look at this list..
  1. Camera- Megapixels
    The myth is the more megapixels, the better. And this my be true in some very limited cases but. Honestly this isn't the complete picture this would be true if the only thing that matters and differentiated cameras was the number of megapixels or sensors..but it does not, a good camera is made by overall good optics so a good lens, fast lens, good glass, overall wide aperture those things make up a good lens and the sensor behind them all.
  2. This is another myth that fall underneath the Cameras- megapixels section, and the myth is that An 8MP photo is twice as tall and twice as wide than a 4MP photo. An 8Megapixel image resolution has twice as many pixels as a 4 Megapixel pixel image resolution, but as you can see it doesn't doubles the vertical and horizontal pixels it's just total million pixels and total 4 million pixels, so you don't have to worry about having a drastically larger image when you go from 18MP to 22MP..It's not really a gigantic noticeable difference..

  3. (Insert Tweak here) will drastically speed up your computer, it is completely false and this is kind of like the worst myth out there, because they spread more frequently than the other types of myths, it's because everyone is looking for a quick, free, effortless, painless, way to like drastically speed up your PC or phone, but honestly Android task killers are a perfectly controversial example.
    Task killers on Android were originally meant to free up RAM and in tun to saving battery life because it's killing processes that's using CPU cycles and RAM but that turned out to be the little placebo effect because Android itself is very good at managing memory ..
    Honestly there is no magical thing you can do to drastically speed you your PC but the most common secret that people don't actually know is Maintenance just actually taking care of what you actually do on your computer and actually know what you are installing or downloading .. just know what you are doing and you will be fine..
  4. Macs can't get Viruses i am not even going to scratch the surface on this one but yes, Macs can get viruses every computer user whether or not they have a anti-virus installed whether or not they are on Mac OS, Linux , Windows or any other operating system needs to be careful about what they click and what they download.
    Macintosh
    There is some truth to the fact that there are more viruses for Windows as compared to there are for Macs, But think of it as a perspective of a malicious hacker, if you are going to write a virus who are you going to write it for?.. Windows because is on 90% of the active computers out there active on the internet today , but yes Macs can get viruses Be Careful..
  5. If you don't safely eject the USB drive it'll explode The idea behind this is actually want to avoid unplugging your USB drives while it's in the process if read or writing data.. So if it's doing something and you unplug it while it's doing that thing you might corrupt the file it was writing.. If you drag a picture from the USB drive just unplug it while it was writing the picture, you pretty much just lost the picture..

    But if it's idle if you are not reading or writing any data you can just unplug it, It's very safe..
That is it, tell me if you are confused about some weird information that everyone is talking about write it in the comments section and i'll be happy to inquire it..
