![]() Weigh anchor on the open seas and begin your career in the maritime industry. In this fictitious environment, inspired by ports and landmarks from around the world, you can captain a hovercraft, bulk carrier, yacht and other magnificent vessels in an expansive open world. It’s a place where you can find groups of like-minded people. ![]() People worldwide post content (usually links, but also original content), and other users can “upvote” or “downvote” posts, pushing the most interesting content to the top. Reddit is a social media and news aggregation website that ranks content based on a voting system. ![]() Reportedly, Whately and Lewis co-star Laurence Fox, who plays Detective Sergeant James Hathaway, have decided to retire from their roles, after 33 episodes, so as not to outdo Thaw’s Morse, which also ran for 33 episodes. ![]() ![]() Kevin Whately was first cast as Robbie Lewis opposite the late John Thaw’s Morse, on the forerunning British drama of the same name. Lewis, ITV’s long-running Morse spin-off, is effectively cancelled after UK series nine. ![]() ![]() XDA members Arnova8g2 and cstark27 have successfully ported Google Camera to fully work on the Snapdragon variant of the S10, S10+, and S10e. Thankfully, you can get the best of both worlds. But as impressive as the hardware is, the native Samsung Camera app still isn't as good with image processing and video stabilization as the Google Camera app for Pixel phones. Samsung has stepped up its camera game with the Galaxy S10's dual- and triple-lens systems. ![]() Do som da rua na Rádio Los Santos, às batidas contagiantes da Non Stop Pop FM, até a música dance de ponta da FlyLo FM ou o funk americano da Space 103.2, você não irá querer ficar parado, mesmo se estiver preso no trânsito há horas." "Para quem estiver preso no trânsito, é só sintonizar a Rádio Los Santos para ter uma gama de estilos musicais a seu dispor. ![]() So I booted Windows 7 with the Kon-Boot disk in the CD drive. Even with a full backup, there is a risk that it might corrupt the BIOS or otherwise make the computer unusable. ![]() If a thief could simply log on to my BitLocker-protected system, the encryption would be useless.Ĭaveat: I have no idea if Kon-Boot can harm a computer and/or upload data. ![]() I wondered if BitLocker was vulnerable to this kind of program. Recently though I read about a password “bypass” program called Kon-Boot that dynamically replaces the Windows kernel during bootup and allows logging in with any password. ![]() BitLocker encrypts the hard drive so that if my laptop is lost or stolen, it should not be possible to access the data on the drive even if you remove the drive and attach it as a second drive to another system. I’ve been running Windows 7 with BitLocker for a couple months and am quite pleased with it. But today, I find myself watching GameStop stock rise with the feverish intensity I usually reserve for a new episode of Bridgerton. ![]() Let AOC, Trevor Noah and a Margot Robbie Character Explain the Stock Market Situation to Youīefore Monday, I cared as much about the stock market as I care about the parts of the Super Bowl that happen before and after the Halftime Show - that's to say, not a lot. ![]() ![]() Highlight the cover you want to move to with the camera and hold a key to go there. Under that kind of pressure, I changed cover a lot, and with ease. I rarely had time to dig in, as enemies flanked or sent explosives my direction with reckless abandon. ![]() From cover, you can blind fire, take aim, toss grenades, or use one of your class abilities, like throwing out an automated turret that suppresses nearby enemies or a med station that heals everyone in a visible radius. Press a key to take cover on corners or highlighted chest-high objects. Combat can be tense and challenging, especially with teammates. ![]() But make no mistake, House of Cards is still very much a mean show. Back before things got sharply Shakespearian-to-the-point-of-self-parody in Season 2 and then unimpressively restrained in Season 3. So as it stands, I watched it all 13 episodes in two days for the benefit of those out there who may have done the same. ![]() But the task of reviewing these Netflix/Amazon/etc shows is still very much a malleable, in-progress endeavor. I just thought I'd bring this little note up right at the start, since, overall, I wish I could have spaced out my House of Cards: Season 4 viewing a bit more. Watching two or three chapters at a time and then allowing yourself a break. Once all the rage, I now find spreading out shows, even those available all at once, is a better tactic. I will say that I'm becoming less of a fan of straight-binging. That's something you have to tailor to your own needs and likes. ![]() I'm not here to tell you how to absorb streaming content. |
