![]() The European Commission is reportedly considering a fresh antitrust probe over Microsoft’s bundling of Teams with its Office suite (Slack complained) and is also looking into a separate complaint (from Amazon and others) about Microsoft’s terms for running its software on non-Microsoft clouds. The U.K.’s antitrust authority just nixed Microsoft’s $69 billion takeover of Activision-Blizzard because it thought Microsoft would use the deal to dominate the nascent cloud-gaming market. But there are also signs of Redmond returning to its old, anticompetitive ways.īritish regulators are sniffing around both Microsoft and Amazon, worried that their terms for cloud customers are designed to discourage switching to other providers. space, where it’s become locked in a desperate race against Google that the latter company doesn’t seem to want to be part of, just yet. The most obvious indicator of Microsoft’s new phase is its aggressive, arguably impetuous behavior in the A.I. But the company is increasingly giving off retro vibes. Satya Nadella’s Microsoft was supposed to be a cooler, calmer entity. The Microsoft that kept getting nailed for anticompetitive practices was meant to be gone now-a relic of the combative Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer days. ![]() Microsoft had recently had an expensive run-in with the regulator over its bundling of Windows Media Player with Windows, so, in 2009, it settled the browser criticism by agreeing to give people a choice of browsers that they could set up as their default when firing up a new copy of Windows. As system administrators have been repeatedly noting in a fiery Reddit thread (reported on by The Verge), this disrespecting of users’ browser choices is a real blast from the past.īack in 2007-the year Apple released the first iPhone, though it was still very much a PC-first world-the Norwegian browser firm Opera complained to the EU antitrust authority about Microsoft bundling its internet Explorer browser with every copy of Windows. ![]()

Gardenscapes allows players to choose decorations for cleaned-up areas of a massively overgrown garden as they level up. To complete the chores, the user must complete levels and earn the required "stars". The storyline is centered on a butler named Austin, who strives to rebuild the dilapidated mansion and garden. ![]() A sequel, Gardenscapes 2, was released in April 2013.Īccording to VentureBeat, a mobile version was in development for over four years and was released in 2016 as a combination of match-3 gameplay with a city-building core. The original version of Gardenscapes, which was released for Microsoft Windows in October 2009, and was later released on OS X, iOS, Android, the Nintendo DS and 3DS, was a hidden objects game in which the player runs a B&B hotel.

You only need to be sure that the Terms of Service of a game you play do not deny such enhancement. Robust custom crosshair rendering directly in a game screen. This tool is not a cheat, it doesn't change games files or game play, it just draws an overlay (like Steam service). Some games allow overlays but with limitations, as example - CSGO which must be started with -allow_third_party_software key in the command line Anti-cheats compatibilityHudSight works in the same manner as most of recording/streaming tools.

HudSight supports games based on DirectX 9, 10, 11, 12, OpenGL and Vulkan graphics. Set one of pre-installed crosshairs or select your own image and that's all! Run a game and software will do the rest of work - your image will be automatically centered on the game screen.

But there is a problem with common "on top" overlay tools. A custom crosshair can contain up to 4 different parts, these are: 1.

Take 30 seconds, watch a video, then go do it. Plus, the instructional videos are about 30 seconds for each feature. But if you’re like me and are always looking for a way to quickly do these portrait retouching tasks without attending a workshop for a whole day, this program is for you. If you’re an expert with other programs and can quickly and easily do these body-shaping tricks, you may not need PortraitPro Body software. Being able to take an image into PortraitPro Body and easily make a few minor tweaks can make a world of difference in how your subject sees themself. The price is so reasonable that the $60 for the Studio version is a no brainer. To answer the burning question, is PortraitPro Body worth it? In my mind the answer is an easy yes. You’ve gone through six steps to either mildly enhance your subject or turn them into a creation that only Dr. There is also a sepia option, plus the usual controls for contrast, tint, exposure and others.Īnd that's basically it. That gives you a very simple option for desaturating the image to just the amount you like in just a few seconds. I especially like the first control where you move the slider from color to black and white. ![]() It did.įinally you move on the picture controls in Step 6. This time I bumped up his right thigh, desaturated the color, slimmed the waist a little and wanted to see if the retouching spot remover would remove the nipple in one shot. It has a few basic controls but nowhere near the options of their facial software. Think of this as PortraitPro facial retouching lite. Once you have the body looking the way you want it to, you can get to work on the face in Step 5. You can remove blemishes, smooth skin, make it darker or lighter, or even select from three different belly buttons if you want that outie to look like an innie. After using the slider and selection tool, you can go to work on enhancements. Step 4 brings up the skin selection and editing tools. Have you ever tried to thin someone down and notice that while that arm you just worked on looks great but now that striped shirt is all crooked? That’s a real pain to try to fix but with the repair tool you can return that shirt to its original shape. ![]() One of the most useful and clever tools is the repair tool. These tools are very similar to the warp, pinch, bulge and move pixels tools in other programs. Step 3 is using the shape tools to get in there and really fine tune things on a local level. This shows how I made a rather dramatic difference in appearance with just a few slider adjustments. That of course brings up the question of how useful this product is in the real world of portrait photography. ![]() I hesitated at calling some of my clients and saying “Hey, how would you like me to take 20 pounds off you and add some super curves so you can look great” with PortraitPro Body software, so I searched online for some stock images that I could legally use for most of my test examples here. So anything that makes complex tasks easier and doesn’t require a steep learning curve works for me. I can knock out zits and adjust color and contrast with the best of them but when it comes to anything more advanced, my skills are limited. I think I need to first tell you that even though I use Photoshop on a daily basis, I am far from a whiz. So, have things really gone too far with software manipulation in photography? Is PortraitPro Body actually a useful tool or a just gimmick? Let’s find out. It appears our friends at Anthropics Technology are at it again! Not content with software that can practically take the face of Fido and turn it into Angelina Jolie using PortraitPro, the London-based company has introduced PortraitPro Body, an image editing program that can potentially transform that wimpy teenager down the block into Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime, or add curves to any woman that would make a Kardashian green with envy. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s more durable than cotton, too, and gets softer with each use. Linen: Linen is made from the flax plant and has a rougher texture than cotton, giving that rumpled, lived-in look that can be quite appealing. Long-staple Egyptian cotton is considered some of the best in the world. A good thread-count range to look for in percale and sateen sheets is between 200 and 600, but you should check the quality of the fibers. The general thinking goes that the higher the thread count, the nicer the sheets, though that isn’t necessarily true. It’s heavier than percale and will sleep slightly warmer.Ī note about thread count, which applies only to cotton sheets: Thread count refers to the number of horizontal and vertical threads in a square inch of fabric. It’s highly breathable, too, making it a great choice for those who sleep hot, and it’s usually made from long-staple cotton, which has longer fibers and is thus more durable and higher quality than cotton made from shorter fibers (Egyptian and Pima cotton are made from long-staple cotton).Ĭotton sateen: Sateen’s three-over-one weave is looser, resulting in a denser feel that drapes well and has a silky sheen. Below, a breakdown of the materials:Ĭotton percale: Cotton percale is made of a tight one-over-one-under plain weave that’s crisp, lightweight, and matte in appearance (kind of like your favorite white button-up shirt). The material you choose will dictate whether the bedding is cooling, durable, or easy to maintain. Then there’s linen (which is made of flax), bamboo and other alternative fibers, lyocell, jersey, and silk. Within cotton, you’ll see percale and sateen sheets, terms that refer to the weave of the cotton, which determines the feel of the bedding. ![]() The most popular sheets fall into a few major categories of material, with cotton being the most common. The first things you want to think about are what your sheets are made of and, if applicable, how they’re woven. And all prices listed are for queen-size sheets unless otherwise specified. Most of the options on this list are sold in sets that come with a fitted sheet, a flat sheet, and two pillowcases, but we’ve noted if pieces are sold separately. To help us wade through the many styles and fabrics out there - a crisp cotton percale, a silky sateen, or something in between - we reached out to 36 experts, including designers, tastemakers, and a couple of the Strategist’s own staffers for their recommendations on the best bedsheets to buy, from classic white Egyptian cotton to ecofriendly linen to completely bespoke sets. And with the rise in popularity of linen sheets, it’s easier than ever to achieve that laid-back, rumpled, yet still intentional look for your bed. So advice to self: get ahead of thegame now and set that alarm clock early! We're totally up for feeling fresh as a daisy all day.With so many bedding start-ups promising premium-quality, hotel-style sheets at direct-to-consumer prices, it can be hard to know what’s what. The research goes on to say that as we get older we realise we need to abandon our late night tendencies in favour for early morning wake up calls. She adds, "An evening person who prefers to wake up at 11am will have a much more difficult time following the typical 9-to-5 schedule so is likely to go through their week feeling tired and unhappy as a result." "One reason why 'early risers' may be happier is because their biological clocks are more in line with societal expectations about when someone should wake up and go to sleep," says Renee. WHAT'S YOUR OPINION ABOUT HEALTH AND VANITY? The study, carried out by Renee Bliss of Toronto University, found that those who preferred late evenings – the party-goers and night owls among us - were prone to what they refer to as 'social jet lag' - when your biological clock becomes out of sync with their social activities. It even found that your immune system would get a boost. Getting up early could also benefit your career, as it demonstrated you were more likely to be motivated and take on certain challenges. The study also shows that those who wake early were likely to stay fresh throughout the day (that means no more midday slumps or afternoon biscuits for that sugar hit) and were happier with their lives in general. REBOOT YOUR BODY WITH COSMO'S ENERGY BOOSTING TIPS Results of the research shows that getting up early gives us the energy boost we need, while keeping us happier for longer - no coffee required. However, a new study provides one solution we can all afford: an early morning. ![]() With the miserable weather and our daily working hours getting longer, it's no surprise that most of us are struggling to get through the day. ![]() ![]() ![]() This is because Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and almost all other certifying bodies count streaming towards Gold and Platinum thresholds required for Digital Single Award certification. The certified units of the newer artists may sometimes be higher than their listed claimed figures. ![]() Some of the 20th century artists can also have significant amount of streaming based certifications. Gold/Platinum certifications issued after 2016, especially on singles, are in some cases more than 50% streaming generated. Sales figures, such as those from SoundScan, which are sometimes published by Billboard magazine, have not been included in the certified units column. The claimed sales figure and the total of certified units (for each country) within the provided sources include sales of albums, singles, compilation-albums, music videos as well as downloads of singles and full-length albums. If two or more artists have the same claimed sales, they are then ranked by certified units. The tables are listed with each artist's claimed sales figure(s) and their total independently certified units and are ranked in descending order by claimed sales. This information cannot be listed officially, as there is no organization that has recorded global music sales. The following list of best-selling music artists includes those music acts from the 20th century to the present with claims of 75 million or more record sales worldwide.
