Rose quartz steven9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Unlike the other Diamonds and even before rebelling, Pink rejected the Gem hierarchy and was extremely informal with her servants. As seen when she fought as Rose Quartz she was courageous, fighting on the front lines of the war which unfortunately caused heated arguments between her and Pearl. Her growing love for the life on Earth and efforts to save it from the other Diamonds seemingly matured her, even fighting against Homeworld and gathering the Crystal Gems. She had a bright, positive and adventurous personality that wanted nothing more than to explore and have fun with her fellow Gems. Pink Diamond evidently appeared to be bubbly and over-friendly, possessing a worldview much like that of her human son Steven's. You're allowed and expected to invent who you are! What an incredible power! The ability to grow up. But you, you're suppose to change! You're never the same, even moment to moment. They burst out of the ground already knowing what they're supposed to be and then that's what they are, forever. Her outfit resembled a ballet dancer and harlequin.Īfter being poofed by Pearl during the climax of the Rebellion, Pink Diamond chose to reform as her rebel alias, permanently adopting the name and identity "Rose Quartz." This was the only time Pink Diamond regenerated with a different form. Her shoes were pink ballet slippers with floating white pom poms. Her half-skirt was also pink-and-white atop cerise un-paned breeches with white pantyhose. ![]() She had pink-and-white puffy sleeves and wore elbow-length cerise gloves. Pink Diamond wore a cerise half-skirted leotard that displayed her midriff and gem in a pentagon-shaped opening. Her physical form's projection was significantly smaller than the other Diamonds but she still towered over lower-ranking Gems. Her gemstone was located on her torso where a human navel would be and appeared in the shape of a convex pentagon (being an inverted-side view of a round-cut diamond). Her lips were accentuated with hot-pink that emulated lipstick. Her hair was styled in a voluminous, fluffy bob around her face. Pink Diamond had bubblegum pink skin, deep pink eyes with diamond-shaped pupils, and pale pink hair.

Teamviewer status9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() If you want it still enabled, but secure, I recommend either "secure" or "very secure", because the shorter ones can be brute force guessed fairly easily. If you have a whitelist and password access already, you can disable this. The "random password(for spontanious access) defaults to 4 characters as "standard". To change or disable the 1 time use password(that is the random characters under the "your ID" on the main program screen), go to Extras>options>security tab. This will prevent 1TUP password logins if you are not running a whitelist. If you need the 1TUP still, set it to "secure" or "very secure". Its not like it matters now anyway, since your whitelist only allows your account, and you can now set up a password to log into each device(use a unique password, and don't save it to any device) from your account. Thats right, the default is 4 characters, and its very easy to guess, since every install uses the same pattern, on top of it set to not change upon start/logins. You can add others, but do this at your own risk.ģ) Disable that pesky one time use password. Hit "okay", and your whitelist is set up. ![]() "add contacts" should be selected, and then double click on your own account. Tic the "allow access only for the following partners" mark, and then the "add" button. In options, go to the "security" tab, and hit the "configure" button next to "black and whitelist". To set up a Whitelist, open the teamviewer program, and make sure you are logged in with your account, and then go to extras>options. ![]() Expect more updates in the near future from them as they try and plug holes Also, TV applied a few bandaids in the most current update. Remember, that without an access whitelist, Joe Schmoe from russia can type in your IP directly to request a connection, and TV default broadcasts that its running(duh!), so its not hard to figure out who is running it, and start hitting it with guesses for the 1TUP, which by default does not change after every guess, so eventually, and quickly, they will get it.Įdit 5/1/16: Turns out I had an older version of TV still, and it ignored the whitelist in certain cases. IT also means that your device will only be accessable to your account, which is now 2 factor protected. This means that random Joe Schmoe cannot get your Device ID and start guessing at the 1TUP. This means that you are only going to allow your account. You will need an app like the "google authenticator".Ģ) Set up an access white list. The Two factor authentication setup(ifits not set up) will be the 4th option down on the "general" tab. To set up 2 factor authentication, log into, and then hit the dropdown arrow on your username in the top right, and then hit "edit profile". 2 factor authentication will prevent them from ever logging into your account in the first place. If the device is not set up with a password, they can reset the one time use password and use that to gain access to your device. They guess your TV account password, and then can see all your linked devices, and log into them. This will prevent the most common type of attack. Set up 2 factor authentication on your TV account. There are a couple of things that you can do to prevent unauthorized logins to both your account and your devices that will stop all these scammers, and also make you feel more secure in using the TV program. ![]() So, as someone who has Teamviewer running on 5 devices, and has had those running for well over 2 years, with zero unauthorized logins, There are some issues with the default install settings of the TV program that are geared towards ease of use, but seriously reduce your security longer term, especially if left running. ![]()

Timi trials9/25/2023 ![]() This trial thus establishes the CV safety profile of dapagliflozin for use in patients with DM2. The upper limit of the 95% CI for the HR had to be <1.8 for premarketing studies and <1.3 for postmarketing studies. AF/AFL was not a prespecified endpoint, had no central adjudication, and was determined from the MedDRA database, and thus, dependent on the fidelity of reporting.įollowing the much-publicized CV safety concerns with rosiglitazone, the FDA mandated that all new diabetes drugs conduct studies demonstrating CV safety. The effect on atrial arrhythmias is hypothesis generating and should be tested in prospective trials. These drugs reduce hyperglycemia in patients with DM2 by reducing renal glucose reabsorption and thus increasing urinary glucose excretion. These are important findings, and more or less consistent with findings noted with other selective inhibitor of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors. Unlike canagliflozin, there was no clear safety signal regarding increased amputations. Effect and safety of CV events was similar irrespective of baseline eGFR and albuminuria. However, in a hypothesis-generating analysis, obese patients (BMI ≥30) had a greater reduction in HF events compared with their nonobese counterparts. The effect of dapagliflozin was consistent across BMI categories. Among patients with HFrEF, dapagliflozin reduced HF hospitalizations, and CV and all-cause mortality however, this cohort comprised only about 4% of the total population. These findings were noted irrespective of baseline BP. There was a reduction in BP, HF hospitalizations, and also a salutary effect on renal outcomes. ![]() The results of this trial indicate that dapagliflozin is superior to placebo in improving glycemic control and noninferior but not superior for reducing MACE in patients with DM2 and high CV risk. not, dapagliflozin showed a greater reduction in CV death/HF hospitalization compared with placebo (p for interaction = 0.02) and HF hospitalization (p for interaction = 0.02) among obese patients. No differences in safety were observed based on BMI either. The effect of dapagliflozin compared with placebo was consistent across BMI categories for CV death/HF hospitalization (p for interaction = 0.33), HF hospitalization (p for interaction = 0.20), renal-specific composite outcome (p for interaction = 0.90), and AF/AFL (p for interaction = 0.97). Patients with higher BMI had a higher risk of HF hospitalization and AF/AFL. The beneficial effects of dapagliflozin on HF hospitalization and renal outcomes were consistent across all baseline SBP categories, with no evidence of modification of treatment effect (p-interactions = 0.28 and 0.52, respectively), including among patients with baseline normotension.Įffect of obesity: Of 17,134 patients, 31.5% were overweight, 32.4% were moderately (BMI 30-<35 kg/m 2), 17.2% severely (BMI 35-<40), and 9.8% were very severely (BMI ≥40) obese. Reductions in SBP with dapagliflozin remained sustained at 48 months of follow-up (least means square difference -2.4 mm Hg, 95% CI -2.9 to -1.9, p < 0.0001). 0.7 for eGFR <60, 60-<90 and ≥90, p for interaction < 0.001).Įffects on blood pressure (BP) and baseline hypertension: Effects of dapagliflozin on systolic BP (SBP) were apparent as early as at the first 6 months of trial assessment (least means square difference -3.1 mm Hg, 95% CI -3.5 to -2.7, p < 0.0001). At 6 months, HbA1c reduction was lowest among patients with lower baseline eGFR (least squares mean difference -0.39 vs. ![]() Relative and absolute risk reduction was similar for the MACE endpoint. Absolute risk difference with dapagliflozin was highest among the subgroup with two markers of CKD (-8.3% vs. placebo was similar across the three subgroups (p for interaction = 0.24). Relative risk for CV death and HF hospitalization for dapagliflozin vs. Patients with more markers of CKD were more likely to be older, male, and have atherosclerotic CVD and HF at baseline. Patients were categorized as having no more than chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 2 (65.1%), at least one marker of CKD (31.7%), or both (3.3%).

Adobe premiere pro export stuck at 1009/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Select marker_guid and click the - (minus) button. ![]() ![]() To do this enable the option for Flash Cue Point. But when I go to export my 32min long video it either stops at 100 or it fails to complete hours later. I was able to export two shorter 20 min videos no problem. I am somewhat new to Premiere Pro and am having trouble with the export of one of my videos. Once you find a marker that has marker_guid listed in the Flash Cue Point section, delete that entry. Export stops at 100 complete Premiere Pro. (If you don’t find this parameter listed, check the next marker) When exporting video on Adobe Premiere, it stays stuck at. Check if you see any parameter named marker_guid listed in the Flash Cue Point section. If you believe your CPU is overheating, you could reduce the CPU usage from 100 to say, 90.Double-click on the marker thumbnail in the Markers panel to load its properties window or select the marker thumbnail and go to Markers (in the menu bar) > Edit Marker.Navigate to the Markers panel ( Windows > Markers).If you wish to drill down to the specific issue: Once the markers are deleted try to export (you may want to create a backup of the project with the markers before deleting them, just in case if you need those markers later). Select all the markers from the timeline that you are trying to export and delete them ( ). I had just three markers and both Encoder and Export from Premiere (ctrl-M) had otherwise been locked up at 0 without deletion of the markers in the main sequence and dependent sequences from a multicam shoot. Note: This procedure is only applicable if you are using makers in the sequence. Here are the steps that can be followed to address this issue. This issue seems to be related to markers. And immediately upon reverting to 14.0, Encode. But immediately after updating to 14.0.1, my marker-containing exports fail to start in Encoder 100 of the time. We are investigating an issue with Premiere Pro/Adobe Media Encoder (v 14.0.1) where the export gets stuck at 0%. Encorder non-starts have always been an occasional thing (10-15 of the time) over the last 5 years Ive used it. ![]()

Affinity photo or paintshop pro9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() There are now countless programs that can edit with levels, curves, layers, and brushes. This is the problem that faced everyone a few years ago: What do you do if you're a software developer and the going rate for your products is now 10% of what it was only a few years ago?Īnother side of it is that the core Photoshop feature set has become commoditized, but the core is all most people need. Affinity simply cannot price their software much higher and still sell it. On the Mac, it's only available through the Mac App Store, and most of its competition like Pixelmator is priced similarly, as is PaintShop Pro on Windows. This is the pricing environment that Affinity Photo operates in today. By the time Apple cancelled Aperture, which started at $499 as boxed software, it was $79 on the App Store. Now, an app over $10 is considered "expensive" and if it's over $25 it's probably "professional." Apple then introduced the Mac App Store, and the same downward pricing now affected desktop software. When Apple came out with the App Store for the iPhone, it offered applications for a few dollars each, and this completely reset customer expectations for software pricing. Lightroom used to duel with the very similar Apple Aperture, which Apple introduced at $499. This standard pricing range held into the early 2000s. At the time, all of those professional applications were priced between $500 and $1000 each. You bought it for your studio along with your page layout program (Aldus PageMaker, QuarkXPress…) and your vector drawing program (Adobe Illustrator, Aldus FreeHand, Corel Draw…). Photoshop started out as an image editing tool for graphic design studios and prepress houses. ![]() If you really do want to switch over to an application that's more like Photoshop than Lightroom, then Affinity Photo is a strong candidate.Ĭlick to expand.What's missing in the comparison is the historical context between the two price points. Keep in mind that if you're a heavy user of the organizational tools in Lightroom, you might not find them in most of those alternatives.Īffinity Photo can edit raw files, but it's in a side module, like the way Camera Raw is a plug-in to Photoshop. There's also Capture One, and the free Darktable. In terms of parametric raw editors, right now some of the direct competitors to Lightroom are On1 Raw and MacPhun Luminar, who are both discounting their latest versions to try and pick up some Lightroom defectors. But that doesn't describe Affinity Photo. Lightroom is primarily a parametric/non-destructive raw image editor with strong organizational features. Both Affinity Photo and Photoshop are pixel-based editors that let you do many things Lightroom can't do, like composite multiple images with masks and layers, edit in non-RGB color modes like CMYK, add text, and design and export graphics for web sites and mobile devices. Affinity Photo is more of a replacement for Photoshop than for Lightroom. ![]()

Fantavision youtube wiki9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() However, many found fault with the length and replay value of its single-player experience when compared to contemporary titles in the puzzle genre.įantavision is a real-time puzzle game that relies on quick color matching and symbol recognition skills from the player. The game received a mostly above-average critical response with reviewers generally praising its visual presentation, core gameplay, and multiplayer. Finally, the game was digitally re-released on Sony's newer consoles via the PlayStation Network outside of Japan beginning in 2015. Fantavision was then remade for Japanese mobile phones starting in 2003. An updated version with this mode titled Futari no Fantavision was released in Japan in 2002. It was released the same day as the console in North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand later that year with an added two-player mode. The graphics emphasize the PS2's ability to show particle effects.įantavision was released in Japan on March 9, 2000, a few days after the PS2 itself. ![]() After successfully pitching the project to Sony, Fantavision was supervised by the company's first-party development head Shuhei Yoshida and was completed by a small team in a short time frame. The game was initially conceived by director Katsuyuki Kanetaka, inspired by the fireworks shows he witnessed in his youth. Used in conjunction with various power-ups, the resulting explosions can ignite and chain together even more flares for additional points.įantavision was created during Sony's transition from its original PlayStation (PS1) to its next generation console. The game's objective is to use a cursor to select three or more launched fireworks (called "flares") of the same color in a row and then to detonate them to increase the player's score. Fantavision, sometimes stylized as FantaVision, is a puzzle video game developed by Japan Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 2 (PS2). ![]()

Pool filter sand for goldfish aquarium9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Challenges of Using Sand Substrates in Aquariums Bottom dwellers often enjoy digging and hiding in it, so it’s important that your substrate is safe for these delicate fish and invertebrates if you’re planning on keeping them.Your substrate also provides anchorage for live plants and supports root growth and their uptake of vital nutrients and minerals.Substrates support the growth of the “good” aquatic bacterial colonies that help regulate your tank’s Nitrogen Cycle and break toxic ammonia and nitrites into safer ( but not safe) nitrates.While it’s obviously a key component in your tank’s appearance, your choice of substrate also has a direct impact on the water chemistry, potential plant growth, and even the well-being of the animals in your tank: 6 Should You Use Pool Sand in Your Aquarium? Role of Substrate in Aquariumsīefore we delve into the pros and cons of using pool filter sand, let’s take a second to talk about the function of substrate and the role it plays in your aquarium’s health.4 Making Sand Substrates Work For Your Tank.3 Benefits of Sand as Aquarium Substrate.2 Challenges of Using Sand Substrates in Aquariums.Consider a different aquarium shape despite the fancy look of such a tank. Spherical aquariums are usually small tanks, fish have to swim in circles, which is unnatural for them, and it's hard to put a filter into such a tank. ![]() Just remember that such tanks are not appropriate for keeping fish, and in some countries, they're even forbidden! Is your aquarium in a custom or bizarre shape? Check out our other tools, such as the triangular prism volume or spherical cap calculator, which can find water volume for spherical aquariums, also called fish bowls. Tan(β) = 0.5 × length / (full_width - width).įor the aquarium with a bow front intended to stand in the corner, the formula is:Ĭorner bowfront = (0.5r² × (α - sin(α)) × height)/2 ![]() You can calculate the angle α with α = 2π - 4β, where β is an angle expressed as: Where α is the central angle of the circular segment, in radians, and r is a radius of a circle. You need to have given four dimensions: height, width, length, and the full width of the aquarium, and then you can derive the final formula:īowfront = height × width × length + 0.5 × r² × (α - sin(α)) × height, It's handier to use radius instead of diameter in this last case: diameter = 2 × radius.Ĭalculating the volume of the bowfront aquarium is a bit trickier. Quarter cylinder = π × radius² × height / 4 To determine the volume of the quarter of the cylinder, take a fourth part of the full volume: Half cylinder = π × (diameter / 2)² × height / 2 Your fish tank is a half-cylinder? No problem, just divide the formula above by 2: If you want to calculate the water volume of a cylindrical aquarium, use the formula for cylinder volume: Our cube calculator can help you calculate this volume easily. The cube-shaped aquarium has the easiest volume equation – simply raise the edge length to the third power: Our rectangular prism calculator will make this calculation simple. To find the volume of a standard aquarium, calculate the volume of a rectangular prism (also called the volume of a box): If you want to calculate the aquarium size manually, you can use the different formulas for volume, depending on the tank shape. ![]()

Change tab name chrome9/25/2023 ![]() ![]() Im not saying its any better and may actually be worst in this respect, but I will stick with chrome. Bill Gates claims to be a philanthropist yet I have never gotten a dime for the sale of my information from him or any other multibillionaire and the only reason they have half the money they do is from our data. How much would we all have if we did? A lot. And if you dont think they are making money off your data, you are just plain naive. To Name a Window in Google Chrome, Right-click on the window titlebar area (not on tabs), and select Name window. ![]() Billions and billions and they are always trying to find ways to mine and sell data. It seems that Gates and the brass at Microsoft just cant seem to get enough money. Its sending data whether or not you want it to and who knows where its going and what its being used for. Maybe not to the untrained eye, but run a packet capture on the browser and trace the findings. Not to mention I got to looking at the settings of Edge and it is quite intrusive. How hard can it be? Yet it will take months or years to happen or never happen at all. The amount of effort and time it takes to update a feature like this is also astonishing. I thought moving to Edge would be a good move given the features, but once again it seems like the developers created something they thought was a good feature. The hover over only shows a generic "Microsoft Azure" tooltip. Right now I have many subscriptions pinned as apps, but I dont know which one I am clicking on. I like the sidebar feature, but the fact that you cant rename the apps is moronic. I am a Senior Cloud Architect for a very large company and as such I manage multiple cloud environments and a large number of subscriptions all of which I work with daily. What boggles my mind is how short-viewed these developers are. See the screenshot - a lot of places to improve (search for details in other posts). A lot of polishing changes might be done under newly coined My Edge, My pleasure - underlining usability and customization of Edge (if it'd be implemented!).ĭebian Bullseye GNU/Linux 5.10.46-5, X.org 1.20.11, IceWM 2.1.2 But those rock solid groups/tabs beg for renaming. Would you mind correcting this part of Edge?īTW. Part of my tab groups and tabs are rock-solid items, thanks to the excellent option "Put inactive tabs to sleep after the specified amount of time:". Alas, I cannot rename tab's name, there's no such option. Change webpage title when tab not in focus. change name of tab title place holder with current tab. I can look at icons to know what is what, but short names would be better. How can I change the current title of a website that appears on the tab of a browser the way Facebook changes the title to '(1) Facebook' when you have 1 notification or message. The bad thing is that the names of tabs are unreadable/hidden. Having vertical tab groups is godsend goody! But I like to have Tab actions menu pinned and kept it narrowed. ![]()

Caesium or cesium9/25/2023 ![]() Non-radioactive cesium can either be destroyed when it enters the environment or react with other compounds into very specific molecules. The radioactive isotopes can only be decreased in concentration through radioactive decay. Radioactive isotopes of cesium may be released into the air by nuclear power plants and during nuclear accidents and nuclear weapons testing. ![]() It is also released into the air, water and soil through mining and milling of ores. How serious the effects are depends upon the resistance of individual persons and the duration of exposure and the concentration a person is exposed to.Ĭesium occurs naturally in the environment mainly from erosion and weathering of rocks and minerals. ![]() ![]() When the exposure lasts a long time people may even lose consciousness. Due to this, effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and bleeding may occur. When contact with radioactive cesium occurs, which is highly unlikely, a person can experience cell damage due to radiation of the cesium particles. It is not very likely that people experience health effects that can be related to cesium itself. People that work in the nuclear power industry may be exposed to higher levels of cesium, but many precautionary measurements can be taken to prevent this. These accidents have not occurred since the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. The amount of cesium in foods and drinks depends upon the emission of radioactive cesium through nuclear power plants, mainly through accidents. In air the levels of cesium are generally low, but radioactive cesium has been detected at some level in surface water and in many types of foods. Humans may be exposed to cesium by breathing, drinking or eating. World production of cesium compounds is just 20 tonnes per year, coming mainly from the Bernic lake (Canada) with a little from Zimbabwe and South-West Africa. Few cesium mineral are know, pollucite is the main: they are silicate magmas cooled from granites. Cesium is used in atomic clocks and more recently in ion propulsion systems.Īlthough cesium is much less abundant than the other alkali metals, it is still more common than elements like arsenic, iodine and uranium. The chloride is used in photoelectric cells, in optical instruments, and in increasing the sensitivity of electron tubes. Cesium salts are used to strenght various types of glass. Cesium is sometimes used to remove traces of oxygen from the vacuum tubes and from light bulbs. Cesium nitrate is used to make optical glasses. Cesium metal oxidized rapidly when exposed to the air and can form the dangerous superoxide on its surface.Ĭesium is used in industry as a catalyst promoter, boosting the performance of other metal oxides in the capacity and for the hydrogenation of organic compounds. Cesium reacts with the halogens to form a fluoride, chloride, bromide, and iodide. Cesium hydroxide is a strong base and attacks glass. Cesium reacts explosively with cold water, and reacts with ice at temperatures above -116☌. Cesium, gallium, and mercury are the only three metals that are liquid at or around room temperature. It is the most electropositive and most alkaline element. ![]() The metal is characterised by a spectrum containing two bright lines in the blue (accounting for its name).
