This site leaked my personal information

An email leak is one thing. Sad, but true i got everything hacked by a 2013 breach at Target, followed by a Home Depot breach in 2014. I was notified by my bank of the hack and told me my credit card was cancelled and a new one is being sent out. I still get idiots that can't spell sending me email, labelled HOne Depee pass do.

Yup, I got a years free monitoring from the Home Depot leak.

I have had another year of free monitoring from another vendor but can not remember who it was now.

Ads on AndroidForums.com

It's sad. I like ads in principle. Done right, they're informative and/or entertaining. Unfortunately, advertising on webpages is a cesspit. Not only are webpages ads intrusive and worse than useless, they're security risks! All computers, which are used for web browsing, must have ad-blockers to be secure. Online ads hack computers too often.

Anyone made a coaster like a projection keyboard for those who want to drink?

It sounds like you want a drink coaster to act like a Wi-Fi hotspot AND a keyboard, because many people use a keyboard to text and write notes with their phone apps. But how likely will someone be to leave their phone at home but go out with a smart keyboard coaster? If they go out drinking, they probably don't want to take an expensive smart coaster they may forget to take home with them when they leave... and as people drink more, they are less able to talk correctly. Their typing is even worse. I just don't understand the market for your coaster, unless it's a niche market of writers who will wake up the next morning, look at their email or online word processing account, and think "okay, what was I trying to say after the last three drinks because sober me has no idea..."

But to even log into their account to begin with, they will need a screen, yes? So a person may as well put their drink on their phone or tablet, as @ocnbrze said, as long as it is water (and beer) resistant and has a scratch-proof screen protector on it. Or, as most people already do, put their drink on a napkin. It's a clever idea: I just don't see a market for it.
Yeah you are right, I know the marker was not inlight of that though, it was a fun idea on paper, still yeah, most people put their drinks on napkins, or at home, I use a microfiber cloth for my coffee cup though, what if the restraunts had a funny idea like that though and decided to put it for the main idea though, without having the kids having it on the hand though.
