Lunar tides hair dye vs arctic fox9/13/2023 ![]() Manic Panic is a respected brand but the price tag reflects that, and it comes in smaller tubs of 4 fl oz, the same size as Pulp Riot. Manic Panic is known for lasting for fewer washes than Pigment AF, while Pulp Riot sits in the middle with a good track record in fading true to tone.īottle size is always a consideration, as you tend to get more bang for your buck. The long-lasting quality of Pigment AF makes for a gradual fade that works with your existing hair colour. ![]() Pulp Riot has 30 great colours in their range, many with deep shades but none as bright as Pigment AF.Ī vital element to consider when choosing a semi permanent hair dye is the quality of the fade all these dyes should start as deep tones that fade out into subtle shades and gentler pastel colours as they slowly wash out of your hair. While Manic Panic doesn’t get such great reviews on the strength of their tones, Manic Panic does have an extensive range of over 40 options. This is something that Pigment AF is known for with each of their 11 carefully chosen colours, from cool grey to jewel tone turquoise. Semi-permanent colour is usually chosen for that wow factor, so priority zooms in on vibrancy or depth of shade. What to look for in semi permanent hair colour Thankfully many hair dye brands prioritise these values, including Pulp Riot, Manic Panic, and Pigment AF, who all also boast ammonia-free dyes with no harsh chemicals.īut apart from this focus on ethically sound production, what else should you look for in a hair dye?

Geekbench mac memory score9/13/2023 Everyone is finally doing their own thing, and actually getting somewhere: Early Zen 4 benchmarks are wicked scary so far, so I'm pretty excited to see what they come up with.Īll-for-all though, this next generation of CPUs is going to be awesome. With AMD's switch to heterogeneous designs coming a few years down their roadmap, I'm really curious how they're going to compete. I am glad that Intel/Apple are pivoting to this new architecture though, it kinda reminds me of the jump to quad core systems back in the day. I don't really understand the benchmarks and such that I've seen, but the every day user experience has been like night and day.ĭocker does a lot of weird stuff in MacOS, it's totally beyond my wheelhouse. With my Air I don't even think about plugging it in, that's a completely new experience for a laptop for me. If I pick up my XPS to quick order some Tacos and it wasn't plugged in from the start I feel like i"m in a race to get the order in "Come on, hold on, I need tacos!!!" With my XPS the moment I put it down I think about where I can plug it in. Even under non ideal situations the Air performed well. I found the container responsible, killed it, and temp dropped quickly. It wasn't until I looked at the status bar that I saw the CPU and temp had skyrocketed. The OS ran smooth, vscode, node and everything else was running smooth. But I was on another virtual desktop and I didn't notice a thing. It pegged a CPU core to 100% for a good 45 minutes. I even had a docker container freak out on my Air recently. I don't know what it is about macOS and using their M chips but the efficiency is amazing to me. I go into the office and I don't even think about plugging it in, I know it will do fine. My M2 Air will last nearly two full working days (I haven't pushed it that far but so far it appears it would make it), the battery life is crazy. It will last a little longer if I manually set it to "best battery life" but even that can be surprisingly ineffective for no apparent reason sometimes. My XPS battery will barely last until 1pm if it isn't plugged in, and the fan kicks on for no apparent reason. My M2 has multiple docker containers, a collection of office apps open, browsers, vs code. That's all the XPS is doing, firefox browsing HN. I have my XPS 13 browsing HN next to my M1 air. The 2018 MacBook Pro is the most substantial upgrade (at least regarding performance) since the introduction of quad-core processors in the 2011 MacBook Pro.I switched from an XPS 13 to an M2 Air recently. What’s interesting is that the 2018 13-inch models are competitive with the 2017 15-inch models in both single-core and multi-core performance, making the new 2018 13-inch MacBook Pro a smaller and lighter replacement for the 2017 15-inch MacBook Pro. Again, higher Turbo Boost frequencies and more cores are responsible for the increases (the 2018 13-inch models still uses DDR3 memory). MacBook Pro (13-inch) Performanceįor the 13-inch models, single-core performance is up 3%-11%, and multi-core performance is up 81%-86%. For example, the AMD Radeon Pro 560 has a maximum frequency of 0.9 GHz, while the AMD Radeon Pro 560X has a maximum frequency of 1.0 GHz. The increase in performance is due, in part, to higher frequencies. OpenCL performance for the discrete GPUs is also up 28-32%. Since the underlying processor architecture hasn’t significantly changed between the 20 models, the increases in performance are due to higher Turbo Boost frequencies, more cores, and DDR4 memory. MacBook Pro (15-inch) Performanceįor the 15-inch models, single-core performance is up 12-15%, and multi-core performance is up 39-46%. ![]() Consult the Geekbench Mac Benchmark chart, and in particular, entries for the 2018 MacBook Pros, for the latest scores. I expect scores for the 2018 MacBook Pros to increase over the coming weeks. ![]() So treat the scores for the 2018 MacBook Pros as preliminary. Geekbench scores for brand new systems are often lower as a result. These tasks vary from system to system, can take several days to complete, and can affect performance. Higher scores are better, with double the score indicating double the performance.Īn important fact to consider when examining Geekbench scores for brand new Macs is that macOS performs several setup tasks in the background, such as synchronizing iCloud documents and photos. Let’s take a quick look at the performance of these new laptops using Geekbench 4 results from the Geekbench Browser.įor those unfamiliar with Geekbench 4, it is our cross-platform CPU and GPU benchmark. Apple announced updated 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Pros last week. Live traffic cameras new york9/13/2023 ![]() As such, these cameras have been found to be an effective safety tool. Some studies have indicated that traffic cameras which detect speed can reduce speeding by 72%. For example, a car traveling at a higher rate of speed when involved in an accident is more likely to result in physical injury. Speeding is an important factor in the severity of car accidents. ![]() However, the ticket could impact insurance rates. As such, it will not result in any points on your driver’s license. However, the ticket is not considered a moving violation. The penalty for such a violation is generally $50, but sometimes it can be more. Regardless of who is driving, it is the owner of the vehicle who will receive the notice. The notice will often include pictures of the car. When speed or a red light violation is detected, the owner of the vehicle will receive a notice in the mail of the violation. There are also cameras which detect traveling in prohibited lanes, such as a bus lane. In some cities, the cameras are permitted by local ordinance. Red-light cameras are permitted in cities with over one million people. In other cases, the cameras can be used to detect if a vehicle runs a red light. In New York, traffic cameras that measure a car’s speed are only permitted in school zones. Traffic cameras can be used to detect vehicles exceeding the speed limit. In this week’s blog, we write about what you need to know about traffic cameras in New York. In many places, these cameras can be seen intersections. For these tickets, they are issued after detection by traffic cameras. You may have gotten a ticket in the mail for speeding or running a red light. Katy perry witness video album9/13/2023 ![]() These are big-production tracks primed for maximum drama-shrieking electro violins, skittering beats, flecks of dubstep and disco-but the clumsy lyrics hamper any emotional payoff.Ĭlichés are practically baked into Perry’s brand, but when she deploys them as cutesy callbacks to her past songs, they present more evidence that she hasn’t really grown. “It’s no funeral we’re attending,” she scoffs on “Not the End of the World.” There’s a song about postponing crying to go out and dance there’s a separate track about dancing while crying. The relentless spangle on Smile can seem jarring as Perry attempts to both nod to and avoid the pandemic-shaped elephant in the room. ![]() “They tell me that I’m crazy, but I’ll never let them change me!” she sing-shouts on “Daisies,” as limp EDM beats fill the background. The confessions on this album feel like calculated dodges, every tepid disclosure immediately followed by triumph. We were meant to connect the dots between parceled honesty and political stances, between an oddball “diss track” against Taylor Swift and a broad stance on female empowerment. “I’ll never understand, because of who I am,” she murmured. The camera panned to a flickering display of the album cover. In one clip, she sat cross-legged on an immaculate white couch and apologized for her history of cultural appropriation. She jammed the album with whomping bass and assertions that a woman could be both “feminine and soft,” “a babydoll with a briefcase,” and promoted it with a 72-hour livestream, therapy session and all, staking her activism on the idea that all vulnerability is radical. She performed the lead single at the Grammys wearing a pink rhinestone PERSIST armband as an image of the Constitution rose behind her. “Put your rose-colored glasses on, and party on,” she cooed on 2017’s Witness, an album of what she called “ purposeful pop,” designed to yank the listener into a newfound social consciousness. Pop music, and Katy Perry in particular, have used this tactic before. These songs wink at global devastation the same way commercials for online car dealerships and door-delivered Chick-fil-A do-in these challenging times, convenience and the power of positivity will get us through. Earth quake la june 1st9/13/2023 But earthquakes are a regular fact of life in many parts of a country that sits on the intersection of two major fault lines. Q3: Have earthquakes happened in Turkey before?Ī3: Turkey ranks among “the most seismically active countries in the world.” The initial 7.8 earthquake on February 6 was the highest magnitude earthquake recorded in Turkey since 1939 and the second highest in its recorded history. Syrian refugees have been forced to navigate shifting temporary protection measures while dealing with the psychological and physical effects of protracted displacement for Syrian refugees, the earthquakes create new trauma on top of old. Though the municipality of Gaziantep has prioritized integration of Syrian refugees for years, the earthquake adds will further stress an already stressed environment. Over one million Syrians live in the Turkey-Syria border region, almost half a million in Gaziantep city alone. Of the nearly 3.8 million registered refugees in Turkey-by far the largest number of refugees hosted by any country in the world-an overwhelming majority are Syrian. ![]() Many of the local and international NGOs that would typically respond to such a disaster have (or have in the recent past had) a presence in Gaziantep supporting Syrian refugees this could help them understand the terrain and the language, but it also means that many of their own operations could have been destroyed or damaged.įourth, Gaziantep is the economic and political center of a region literally on the frontlines of humanitarian response after the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011. In addition to the loss of life this has caused, the magnitude of the destruction means that all relief efforts will be challenging thanks to blocked roads, damaged bridges, communications and power outages, food and water shortages, and other critical disruptions. ![]() Third, the strength of the earthquakes resulted in entire neighborhoods being reduced to rubble. Though search and rescue and humanitarian relief teams have been deployed from 45 countries around the world-including two 79-person search and rescue teams and a Disaster Assistance Response Team from the United States-wintry conditions will make search and rescue operations and all humanitarian relief efforts more challenging. Snow blanketed the region over the weekend and cold rain fell over rubble on Monday afternoon temperatures dropped to near freezing levels in the evening hours. Second, this happened in the middle of winter in a region where temperatures routinely dip below freezing this time of year. These lessons include the critical need to coordinate assistance, to build local resilience, and to draw from and strengthen local response structures. In the coming days and weeks and months, international donors and NGOs will need to draw on lessons from other rapid onset disasters (e.g., tsunami and hurricane relief) which share similar destructive qualities. The physical and psychological human impact will be far greater and longer lasting. Search and rescue operations will continue for the next few days, after which efforts will shift to recovery and ultimately to rebuilding damaged and destroyed infrastructure. But the already high death toll could continue to grow for at least four reasons.įirst, since the initial earthquake struck when many people were still at home, most were likely to have been in the thousands of buildings that were destroyed. Q2: What are some of the biggest concerns?Ī2: The biggest concerns are and will continue to be the loss of life and providing humanitarian relief to survivors. Within 24 hours, an estimated 5,600 buildings were destroyed in Turkey and over 5,000 people had died in Turkey and Syria, though these figures are likely to grow in the coming days. Home to over 2 million people, Gaziantep is the sixth largest city in Turkey. A1: The reverberations from the earthquakes were felt in Iraq, Israel, Lebanon, and Jordan, though initial estimates suggest the greatest devastation occurred in southeastern Turkey and northern Syria.

Individuals often wonder how they can measure or keep a track of the strength of their Wi-Fi signals. Ways to Test the Strength of Your WiFi Signal Old versions do not perform as well as the new ones. Router Must be Up-to-DateĪpart from worrying about the position and the location of the router, you should also keep in mind that the router needs to get upgraded as well. Some cases even ask of you to invest in additional routers to increase the range of the signals. Having said that, some activities require the router to be in the closest proximity to the device. The device’s distance from the router also affects the signal strength that it receives. Other than that, avoid areas where there are many walls to act as a hurdle between the router and the devices. As a rule, choose a central location for your router. The location of the router means that you have to consider the height of the router apart from paying attention to the interfering devices that could be messing with the router’s performance. Some things that you can take care of at your end include: Router Location And you could be facing a signal strength issue as a result of a single or a combination of many factors. However, there is more to the scenario than this. Many times people blame the wireless internet providers for the poor signal strength.

The maximum signal strength that a network can achieve The following table summarizes the signal strength, what it gets qualified as, and suitable uses of that particular Wi-Fi signal strength. For Wi-Fi, the dBm (decibels relative to a milliwatt) is the unit that you measure the strength in. Getting yourself acquainted with the measurement method of the signal strength will help you understand it better. Did the comment ever make you wonder about how to know whether a signal strength is good or poor If yes, then you will learn a great deal about the signal strength in this section? But before that, you should know that the strength of the signal directly impacts the activities of individuals. You must have heard people complain about the poor quality often Wi-Fi signals a lot.
