Mac computer

1.Mac computers can’t get virusesMac
苹果电脑不会感染病毒

Yes, Apple computers are susceptible to malware, too. Apple used to brag its computers aren't as vulnerable as Windows PCs to viruses, but the company quickly changed its marketing page after a Trojan affected thousands of Mac computers in 2012.
哦不,其实苹果电脑也是会感染病毒的。苹果公司一度鼓吹自己出产的电脑不像Windows的电脑那样容易感染病毒,结果在2012年一种木马病毒感染了数以千计的Mac电脑,苹果公司也就马上改变了自己的营销策略。

Private browsing

2.Private/Incognito browsing keeps you anonymous
隐身浏览即不留痕迹

There’s a misconception that “incognito” and “private” are synonymous with anonymous. If you’re using Incognito Mode, it simply means the browser won’t keep track of your history, import your bookmarks, or automatically log into any of your accounts. Basically, it's good for keeping other people who use your computer from seeing what you've been doing. But it won’t keep your identity hidden from the sites you visit or your ISP — so keep that in mind if you’re visiting sites you shouldn’t be.
有一种误解认为“隐身”和“隐私”是同义词。如果你用隐身模式浏览网页,那么浏览器就不会保存你的浏览记录,也不会加载你的书签,不会自动登录你在各个网站上的账号。大体上讲,避免让其他人在使用你的电脑的时候看到你的浏览记录是有好处的。但是这种模式下,你的身份在你所浏览的网页上并不是隐蔽的——当你浏览一些不应该看的网页时,记住这一点吧!

battery

3.Leaving your phone plugged in destroys the battery
连夜充手机会损害电池

If you’re like most people, you probably leave your phone plugged in overnight long after the battery is fully charged. Some used to say this would hurt your phone's battery life, but in fact, there's no proof that this damages your phone’s battery in any way. Modern smartphones run on lithium-ion batteries, which are smart enough to stop charging when they’ve reached capacity.
大多数人都会整夜插着手机的充电器,尽管电池已经完全充满了,你大概跟他们一样。有人说这会影响手机电池的使用寿命,然而事实上,没有证据表明这样充电会对你的手机电池有任何方面的影响。智能手机使用的都是锂离子电池,这种电池颇具智慧,在能量饱和之后就会停止能量存储过程。

charge

4.Don’t charge your phone unless it’s almost dead
在电量几乎耗尽之前不要充电

This, too, is a popular myth about lithium-ion batteries. It’s not harmful to plug your phone in before the battery is drained — in fact, it may be better for your battery. Batteries have a limited number of charge cycles before they lose their ability to hold a charge. A charge cycle consists of charging your battery back up to its full capacity when it’s out of juice. The reason your phone’s battery life diminishes as it gets older is because it’s already used up many of its cycles, not because you’re plugging it in when the battery is already half full.
这也是一种关于锂电池的普遍误解。在电量耗尽之前就插上充电器其实并没有什么害处——事实上,这可能对你的电池更好。 在电池的电量完全流失之前,电池有一定额度的。一个充电循环包括将电量耗尽的电池再次充满的过程。随着时间的流逝,你手机电池的寿命变短了,是因为用过多的循环充电,而不是因为你在电池还剩一半电的时候就充上了。

megapixel

5.More megapixels always means a better camera
像素越高摄像头越好

What’s the difference between 12 megapixel cameras and 8 megapixel cameras? Not much, as it turns out. The quality of an image is determined in large part by how much light the sensor is able to take in. Bigger sensors may come with larger pixels, and the larger the pixel the more light it can absorb. So, it’s really the size of the pixels that matter as much or more than the sheer number of pixels. (A megapixel is simply shorthand for a million pixels.)
1200万像素的摄像头与800万像素的摄像头二者区别何在?事实证明,其实没什么区别。图片的质量很大程度上取决于传感器采入的光线的多少。传感器越大,相匹配的像素可能更高,像素越高,采光就越多。因此,重要的是传感器的尺寸,传感器的尺寸与像素的高低同等重要,或者说比后者更重要。
