In 2019, US adults looked at mobile devices more than TV for the first time, averaging 3 hours, 10 minutes per day, according to eMarketer. During the COVID-19 pandemic, data usage has skyrocketed and time spent on a screen has greatly increased.Īll that bright light streaming into your eyeballs isn't great. Blue light can confuse your brain about the time of day, disrupting sleep. Giving up mobile devices isn't really an option for most people, though, so we turn to things like blue light filters or blue light glasses. You can also swap out white backgrounds for grays and blacks to give your eyes a break. Not all apps offer an official dark mode, but many have jumped on the bandwagon in recent years. ![]() If you have at least iOS 13 or Android 10, your device will support a system-wide dark mode. And for some Google or Apple apps, that's the only way to turn on dark mode. If you have an older operating system, you may not be out of luck. Samsung phones running Android 9/Pie support a more limited version of dark mode, and some apps with their own dark mode may support older operating systems. Enable Dark Mode in Android Messages App. ![]() Whether you're new to dark mode, prefer to pick and choose your themes, or trying to figure out your options on an older device, here is how to turn it on in some of your favorite apps. First, check the Play Store to make sure the latest version of Messages is installed the all-white design and the new Start Chat icon on the lower.

I'm sorry.Esprit confirms CEO in executive team shake-upĮsprit has confirmed William Pak as chief executive officer. Too busy, too loud, too acrid, and probably more enjoyable being used as a bathroom spray than on skin. Even die-hard aquatic fans have a plethora of better options, and at prices comparable or actually lower than this. I can't fault it for being made to find an audience, but from a hobbyist's perspective, I can fault it for being a bad fragrance otherwise. ![]() Football Scholarship on his way to Gold's Gym after class. This was an accessory in the gym bag of Mr. Indeed, this was also a direct assault on the 18-25yr old young active entry-level guy the high school student, the collegiate, the service economy dude that drove a hand-me-down Saturn SL2 to game night at his friend's club basement, where D&D books were stacked to the roof alongside cans of Dr Pepper. This was the height of the first aquatic glut in male fragrance, and by turn of Y2K, we'd see gourmands, new musks, and a new generation of fresh fare powered by ambroxen instead of calone gradually take hold, which is marginally more interesting. ![]() My scathing review is not without some understanding. They should really save this base and build a whole new scent around it, but instead, this became a full-fledged grooming line. Speaking of bases, that's probably the only area where this gets a few nods, for once all that olfactory calamity dies down, we get some nice sandalwood, real but slight oakmoss, muguet, and crisp thyme. The multitudes of mint and pepper notes in the opening make sure you don't go unnoticed as you pass by on a summer day, but is that really the kind of trail you want to leave? Green apple and pineapple sweetness also emerge, as if a bit of the ozonic fruit archetype also popular in the 90's had to be stapled on to cover all bases. The ginger/ginger ale accord in the opening is the big bubblegummy gimmick to get teen guys off their Playstations and ride their 90's BMX bikes down to the corner drugstore to "score" a bottle, but once you get passed the almost-cute opening, this quickly devolves into "designer Windex" as I used to call it myself before off-loading it (finally) to a friend. If I hadn't already been exposed to this, I would think the overactive note pyramid pretty clearly states how it tries too hard. Early Addidas masculines came through the Beecham/Margaret Astor house and had a bit more seriousness to them, but once the Fragrance Borg that is the Coty empire picked up the name, it became a repository of second-rate ideas not good enough for prestigious labels, shucked to stores like Walmart for the teen set to stumble on. Everyone and their mother was making an aquatic or aquatic flanker in the 90's, as they were to men's fragrance then what a barbershop fougère was to that same market in the 60's and part of the 70's: Easy, guaranteed to sell, non-provocative, and cheap. (For me, I usually prefer, whenever possible, for the stronger concentration to be underneath clothing and for body spray and aftershave versions to be used on the exposed "pulse point" areas.) This application yields a favorable result for me.Īddidas Moves is a licensed Coty fragrance made on behalf of the venerable activewear/shoewear company, and is really just an exploitation of the first-wave aquatic craze began in earnest with Davidoff Cool Water in 1988. If reviewed without regard for price, I wouldn't be sure whether to give it three or four stars, but when considering what a great value it represents if found toward the bottom of its price range, it's easily four stars.įor Adidas Moves, I put it on immediately after showering, using a couple sprays of EDT on the chest, one spray of EDT on the back, and a squirt of the body spray on each side of the neck and behind each elbow. ![]() It lasts three or four hours, and that's good enough to make it one of the best "bang for you buck" fragrances I've come across (and I've come across many dozen). My conclusion: It's simple, but simply good! Just a safe, no-frills, clean, light, fresh, sporty scent that brightens the mood. I bought a 1 oz EDT/2.5-oz body spray gift set at a Walgreens store a few days ago (for $5.00 after a 50% discount and $2.50 Walgreens rewards points). 1/5/2024 0 Comments The inn between indian riverThe Inn is located on a low hill at the mouth of Furnace Creek Wash with views of Death Valley and the Panamint Mountains. Martin and landscape architect Daniel Hull. Originally named Furnace Creek Inn, the resort and its landscaping were originally designed by prominent Los Angeles architect Albert C. Photo courtesy of Xanterra Travel Collection ![]() The Inn at Death Valley as seen just after renovation of the historic structure in 2018. More than sixty years later, Congress designated Death Valley a National Park in 1994. In February 1933, President Hoover signed a proclamation creating Death Valley National Monument. Magazine and newspaper articles and a successful radio program-Death Valley Days-were all tools used by the Borax Company.Īfter Mather’s death in 1930, Horace Albright became the NPS Director and felt free to openly promote the creation of Death Valley National Park. To avoid scandal and accusations of showing favoritism, Mather suggested using the media to spread the word of Death Valley’s wonders and start grass-roots support for protection of Death Valley. Prior to becoming NPS Director, Mather had worked for Pacific Coast Borax, and so had his father. He knew the battle to convince Congress would be difficult and was afraid his involvement would sour the deal due to his personal history. Although Mather was impressed by the scenery and agreed it was of national park quality, he declined the request to help. To promote the idea of Death Valley becoming a National Park, Pacific Coast Borax invited the Director of the National Park Service, Stephen Mather, and his assistant, Horace Albright, to visit Death Valley in 1926. He refused to promote national park status for Death Valley for fear that he would appear biased. ![]() Stephen Mather had worked for Pacific Coast Borax before becoming the first Director of the National Park Service. 1/5/2024 0 Comments Dynamic network csv cytoscapePSICQUIC is available from the Search bar.

If a multi-year siege isn't to your liking, there are more insidious ways to weaken your foes. Hopefully this new feature won't prove the new game's undoing. Total War is a series that has consistently struggled with its AI. But as players grow familiar with the system, I can see exploits emerging. In the few battles I attempted, the computer successfully countered my attempts to hem it in. This, I think, will be the test of Attila's AI. Pushing through the barricade will take time, but moving around lets the defender funnel their opponent into a more disadvantageous position. For attackers, it becomes a tower defence style gauntlet. Troops can then be moved to occupy these spaces. Before a battle, you can set up a limited number of barricades across pre-marked positions. That was thanks in part to the new barricades. It was a valiant defeat-my ultimately doomed troops taking out far more of the opposition than they had any right to. My walls were crumbling, my buildings were fragile and my men were outnumbered. Creative Assembly's hands-on demo featured a single battle against overwhelming attackers. This was the state of the settlement I was given to defend. You get into a level of escalation where there are breaches." At that point it will be easier, or you can wait even more. ![]() "There are corpses everywhere, and some buildings are destroyed. Wait six or seven turns, and decay will set in. Attack instantly and the settlement will be pristine and difficult to conquer. Now sieges last for years." The length of the siege affects a city's defensive potential. "Previously sieges were quite contained," says Gaspar, "and relatively short in terms of the campaign. To counter this, siege tactics have been more fully developed. "Put a level ten general into a province," says Gaspar, "and he can provide a very good defence with his skills and abilities." They also act as generals for garrisoned forces, offering extra protection for threatened provinces. These statesmen are tied to specific provinces-their traits and skills offering bonuses to the areas they're assigned. Players will not only be able to nurture their heir, marry their bachelors and navigate their internal intrigue, but also nominate governors from both in and outside of the family. As such, familial management is making what's sure to be a welcome return. Attila, he counters, is more focused-especially in its time scale. "We take out and put away features based on the game," Gaspar says, citing Empire as an example of a Total War game too grand to support the feature. Here's an obvious one: the family tree is back. The campaign's other features are more dramatic. It's a small change, but one that makes the world feel more open and less claustrophobic. Even the camera's had an upgrade-letting you zoom out further for a fuller look at your empire. The campaign map is a clear evolution of Rome 2's beautifully detailed dioramas. It's the end of the world as Rome knows it, but for players, things will be more immediately familiar. ![]() ![]() The level design of the random map generator in each run was stunning with many rooms having holes and added a third dimension to the game. Spock and Prudent explained how craftable cocktails would be an important aspect of going into runs because they would grant players buffs for the party prior to the run-so the reason was justified as it was a feature still in development. I was only allowed 24 hours with this Open Dev build, but I found myself glued to this game for hours.Īt first, I was disappointed with the lack of available roguelike elements that would have come with rewards from dying, but the developers mentioned they would be available in the full game. I was a bit lost with how the resource generating worked in terms of the long game strategy but eventually learned the tricks of the trade. Opening more doors helped generate these resources but also opened more paths for potential enemy spawns. For players experienced with DOTE, the resources stayed the same with Science, Industry and Food being primary-and Dust and Medikits were secondary resources. The standard gameplay was simple enough: explore by opening doors to find the path to the level exit or checkpoint, resources or equipment prepare for monster mobs by building turrets in available slots and protecting the Crystal Bot by all means (otherwise, it was game over). Having both DPS heroes, Zed and Blaze together could have worked, but I thought it was tough to manage without someone tanking the damage or providing supportive slows against enemies. After multiple tries, I found Zed and Bunker, or Blaze and Bunker to be the most well-rounded compositions. I thought these three heroes were a great start to experiment with different team compositions because they each synergized in several ways.Īs with most RPG/strategy games like World of Warcraft or League of Legends, high damage and tanky characters tend to be a nice balance. The intended run for the full game is to have three members before entering the dungeon, but this build only allowed me to select two-also, I had to control both since I was playing solo. I was able to find out more about the game that was not covered in the other portions of the event, and then, I had the special opportunity to sit down with the Chief Creative Officer and Studio Head, Romain de Waubert, and the Creative Director, Jean-Maxime Moris, to discuss where this game fits in the Endless universe and what it means for the future. The team at Amplitude Studios and Sega were thrilled to show off this ambitious adventure back into the space dungeon world that evolved in all aspects.Īfter the presentation and live digital hands-on event, I was able to take part in a group Q&A session with Endless Dungeon’s Narrative Director, Jeff Spock, and Lead Game Designer, Arthur Prudent. CGMagazine was invited to explore the world and experience the gameplay of Endless Dungeon’s Open Dev preview-a spiritual successor to DOTE. The creators of great 4X games like Humankind and the innovative roguelike RPG, tower-defense game, Dungeon of the Endless (DOTE) introduced their latest, exhilarating project. Homeworld’s poignant air of cosmic mystery is largely absent here everything’s all grueling puzzle and puzzling grind. Which is partly what makes much of the martinet story campaign such a bummer. As in Homeworld, you feel for these poor trusting bastards scrounging for asteroids out in the middle of genuine nowhere. Your people live inside those fragile husks, fly them, die in them—the exhaust trails become their souls. For a game totally devoid of visible living organisms, Homeworld 2 compensates by making you care about simulated husks of flying machinery. But it’s great hard sci-fi, and the visuals really suck you in —literally—as you zoom in closer like a jeweler with a loupe, and the distant flashes gradually coalesce into thousands of stories unfolding. The large, complex battles it depicts have an austere, clinical feel that’s more admirable than immersive, regardless of the camera angle. ![]() The Homeworld universe is “hard†science fiction, as opposed to, say, StarCraft. With a new game engine, especially during massive battles of all ship classes, you can’t help but admire its finer points, from its lovely dynamic lighting to its chilly “realism.†![]() ![]() Homeworld 2 takes the original and upgrades it. Still widely regarded as the gold standard of space real-time strategy games, it successfully coupled lush graphics with a sleek interface that made manipulating camera angles and toggling between build and formation menus in 3D space incredibly easy. In 1999, Relic Entertainment’s groundbreaking Homeworld took the gaming world by surprise. 1/4/2024 0 Comments Nail shapesIf you're concerned with short or chubby fingers, though, Rose says to grow nails out a bit longer: "Short and square is the hardest shape to wear, as it can make hands appear stumpy." 3. This classic, tidy shape is easy to achieve. You don't need much of a tip to achieve it, so this look is great for shorter nails. Here are eleven different popular nail shapes that you can try out next time you want to switch up your look 1. Basically, you file straight across for a square shape first, but round out the edges. If you have naturally long, sturdy nails and have the urge to try something unconventional, ask for this extended, tapered shape with a flat squared-off tip. If you want a shape other than a natural rounded one that doesn't take a ton of effort to maintain, try a square style with the tip filed flat. A squoval nail shape combines two looks in onea mix of square and oval. With this shape, nails are less likely to tear or break, making them healthier. This shape is also perfect if you want strong nails, recommends Ava Shamban, M.D., a dermatologist in Los Angeles and author of Heal Your Skin. It's also the most popular nail shape: When they visit the salon, most women opt for this classic silhouette, Rose reveals. ![]() ![]() Try this If you’re fond of loud nail shades, or your nail bed is naturally long from tip to cuticle. A square shape will make your nails look even shorter. This simple shape is perfect for short nails (even nail biters!), extending only slightly past your nail bed and maintaining its natural shape. Tip This nail shape is best finished with an oval or rounded tip.
