Hello,
The “How to show saved Windows 7 Wifi passwords” turned out to be a popular article and to make the life of my readers easier, I decided to apply a newly acquired knowledge and write a tool to make it SUPER EASY to get all the saved WiFi passwords without needing administrative privileges and without having to click through various settings dialogs.
Note: In some cases, if the script fails to run, then you may want to run the script as administrator.
Read on! or download the script. Continue reading “WifiPasswordReveal: A script to reveal all the saved WiFi passwords in Windows 7 and above”

Is online dating a big scam for men?
Today, in this day and age of technological advancement, we are presented with tools that aim (sincerely one must say) at helping us in our endeavor in human interaction and forming new connections.
Social tools such as Facebook and online dating websites such as OkCupid, Match.com, eHarmony, etc., all try to help us connect, form new connections, make friends (with or without benefits) and often times just hook up.
Other tools aim to take advantage of the technology to make it even faster to connect with people by simply letting you provide very little information about yourself (a bunch of pictures for example) and then they offer you a quick and brutal way to judge the profile of other participants and see if they are worthy of your attention (Tinder anyone!?).
Those technological social tools are nice concepts but have failed miserably at helping people connect properly with each other on all dimensions. Instead those tools only cover shallow dimensions of the human interactions without providing the full spectrum of such.
Electronic social interaction is like junk food, whereas face to face interaction is like wholesome and organic food.
This article will be based on my own experience as a male and on the sentiments of many men from various manosphere websites and blogs.
In this article, I will be addressing some aspects and realities that I have observed in this day and age regarding online dating. Continue reading “Is online dating a big scam for men?”

Instagram Husband!
The three teens and the belfie obsession
The other day, I was sitting on the bench facing the lake and talking to a friend. I could not help but notice from afar on the docks three teenagers taking selfies in turns.
They spent around 30+ minutes taking photos of themselves making duck faces, yolo signs and all sort of vain poses and facial expressions.
At one point the selfie session became even more weird: the two teenagers asked their third friend to take a picture of them. They turned their back to the camera, protruded their behinds a bit, and then each girl touched the other girl’s ass while posing for the picture.
It is ridiculous how the teenage girls are very obsessed with their assets: face, hair, ass, tits, legs, you name it!
They forget that one day, they will grow old and their skin will sag. External beauty is like a flower, it will whither slowly but surely.
What values did they develop more than their vanity and narcissism during their formative years?
By the way, is there is anything more vain than the term: “Instagram model“?

What kind of an ass are you?
A couple of years ago, I bought a funny t-shirt that is usually an icebreaker and conversation starter with strangers! Not many people get the joke because all they see is a picture of donkeys (or asses, pun intended), depending on how you look at it! 🙂
The 2016 World Predictions according to Michel Hayek
This is the first time I decide to translate the 2016 predictions of Michel Hayek, a Lebanese psychic, from Arabic to English and post it on my blog.
I don’t have a stance on predictions and I cannot say whether I believe or don’t believe in them. We, humans, have a lot to learn and discover about our full potential and what we can and cannot do. Bottom line: I am open to all the possibilities.
The reason I decided to translate this video is when I saw on the news that Mark Zuckerberg received threats from the ISIS supporters, which reminded me of one of Michel’s predictions for the year 2016 which was aired in December 31, 2015.
Two things to note before I present the translation:
- I am not a professional translator (at least not yet).
- I did not translate everything. I skipped many things including predictions of events that are very local to the Arab region and Lebanon.

Watch the video with the help of an interpreter if you want to know about all of his predictions. Continue reading “The 2016 World Predictions according to Michel Hayek”
