Memphis first entered beta as Windows Memphis Beta 1, released on June 30, 1997. After the release of its successor, Windows Me in 2000, mainstream support for Windows 98 and 98 SE ended on June 30, 2002, followed by extended support on July 11, 2006.įollowing the success of Windows 95, the development of Windows 98 began, initially under the development codename "Memphis." The first test version, Windows Memphis Developer Release, was released in January 1997. ![]() Windows 98 sold an estimated 58 million licenses and saw one major update, known as Windows 98 Second Edition (SE), released on May 5, 1999. Upon release, it was generally well-received for its web-integrated interface and ease of use, as well as its addressing of issues present in Windows 95, although some pointed out that it was not significantly more stable than its predecessor. Microsoft had marketed Windows 98 as a "tune-up" to Windows 95, rather than an entirely improved next generation of Windows. ![]() Windows 98 was the first edition of Windows to adopt the Windows Driver Model, and introduced features that would become standard in future generations of Windows, such as Disk Cleanup, Windows Update, multi-monitor support, and Internet Connection Sharing. Most of its improvements were cosmetic or designed to improve the user experience, but there were also a handful of features introduced to enhance system functionality and capabilities, including improved USB support and accessibility, as well as support for hardware advancements such as DVD players. Windows 98 is a web-integrated operating system that bears numerous similarities to its predecessor. Like its predecessor, it is a hybrid 16-bit and 32-bit monolithic product with the boot stage based on MS-DOS. The second operating system in the 9x line, it is the successor to Windows 95, and was released to manufacturing on May 15, 1998, and generally to retail on June 25, 1998. Windows 98 is a consumer-oriented operating system developed by Microsoft as part of its Windows 9x family of Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Green inferno torrent not online11/1/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (Kudos to the special-effects team.) As far as extreme grossfests go, the latest from the “Hostel” and “Hostel II” director is ruthlessly effective, a well-calculated series of scenarios designed to crank up dread and gore with ever-escalating suspense.Ī sheltered college student named Justine ( Lorenza Izzo) ends up on a field trip to hell after she’s coaxed, then pressured, to participate in a save-the-natives social-media stunt in the Amazon. So gruesome and naturalistic is the eyeball-removal scene that I actively wondered if the film would make me vomit - an accomplishment in its own way. That scene happens fairly early in “The Green Inferno,” and it’s done with so much sadistic relish that it feels like anything could happen next. He’s alive and conscious for all of it, though probably not for long, since the indigenous tribes people who have captured him and his fellow activists after their aircraft crashes in the Peruvian jungle quickly saw his limbs off to throw in the oven.Īlso Read: IFC Midnight Buys 'Cabin Fever' Reboot Written by Eli Roth His tongue’s sliced off and gobbled up as well. Jonah’s (Aaron Burns) eyes are gouged out and swallowed whole to roaring cheers. Female genital mutilation on a light-skinned college girl is dangled as the worst possible fate a character can be subjected to, and the one dude who can pass for black is among the first to get his. Two of the most frequent tropes in slasher flicks, for example, are specifically tied to gender and race: the (white) girl who survives and the black guy who dies first.Įli Roth‘s faux-smart, long-shelved, and exploitative-as-hell cannibal tale “The Green Inferno” is a remarkably perfect example of horror’s unexamined white privilege. It’s hard to think of a genre that fetishizes white (virginal) femininity more than horror. ![]() ![]() ![]() Color lives patiently in the pencil, and when called, lands with sensitivity on paper, only.įinding myself conveniently at my desk for another day, I did some art hunting for colored pencil drawings, and I have a few new V. ![]() Nothing spilled, dripped, spread, smeared or crusted dry and ruined. No paint or charcoal dust in the keyboard. If you get a set of pencils with a good amount of pigment, and paper with enough tooth to allow the colors to build and blend, you have yourself a delightfully tidy art kit that’s great for travel, or for this continued quarantine, for drawing while sitting at a desk. I’ve found that each brand of pencil offers a different “feel.” Some are rich and buttery like fine oil paints, others are soft and crumbly like delicate soft pastels. Here I am, after countless pigment sticks and fluids, I’m back to the simple thing I started with all those years ago. It took a year like 2020, but yes I’ve come round. I’m sorry to say that with this tiny impasse, I gave them up entirely.Īfter 30 years I’ve rediscovered pencils. I was to a sad end, though, because I hadn’t yet learned that the core of a pencil is breakable, so after dropping them on the floor a few dozen times I was blocked by the frustration of trying to sharpen the wood away from shafts as they cracked and crumbled with every 1/4 inch removed. The colors were limited, but the pigment was rich and vibrant. ![]() It wasn’t the “thing” in the drawing that I loved, it was watching the pigment grab onto the paper fibers. Then I got a set of 12 Derwent, and made some of the first drawings that I ever liked. I figured all colored pencils were wuss sticks. The colors looked exciting in the box, but for soft paper they were way too hard, and had more wax than pigment. Oils, pastels, graphite, watercolor, ink, even conte is common in museums and galleries, but colored pencils seem to be a material outgrown as soon as any of the others are acquired.Īs a kid I had a disappointment set of pencils. I look at a lot of art, and I don’t tend to see colored pencil drawings popping up in the mix of esteemed or daring artworks. ![]() I heart radio christmas music station11/1/2023 ![]() Listeners can expect nothing but the biggest and best Christmas songs of all time, non-stop, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’, Wham!’s ‘Last Christmas’, Chris Rea’s ‘Driving Home For Christmas’ and Band Aid’s ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’Īndy Everett, Managing Editor of Heart, said: “This year we’ve decided to bring back our much-loved festive station, Heart Xmas, earlier than ever before. ![]() This year, the much-loved station is switching on earlier than ever before - a total of 97 days before Christmas - bringing listeners the ultimate seasonal soundtrack for the festive countdown.

Technology in general has improved by leaps and bounds in the past two years, and the MacBook Air reflects that. It’s now the lightest it’s ever been, at only 2.7 pounds. The outside of the laptop has been redesigned too. It’s a speedy chip that can handle a lot more demanding processes than the M1 on the 2020 MacBook Air can. Arguably the most important improvement is the switch to the M2 chip. It has several improvements over previous models, both in the design and internal components. If you love the sleek look of the MacBook Air, but the M2 chip just doesn’t cut it power-wise, the MacBook Air 2022 model has your back. ![]() Ideal for work or school, this 15-inch HP laptop is $300 todayĪpple MacBook Air 2022 (M2, 13-inch, 256GB SSD) - $1,099, was $1,199 Insane deal slashes $4,500 off this Lenovo laptop with 128GB of RAM This one has a resolution of 2560 x 1600, so anything short of 4K will look its best.įlash deal drops the price of this gaming PC with an RTX 3050 to $855 It’s worth shelling out the Apple price just for that, since you spend hours at a time staring at it. The screen on the 2020 MacBook Air is a gorgeous retina display, the same technology on your iPhone. The one thing Apple never skimps out on is the display. It has 8GB of RAM, average for a mid-range computer, and a fairly light 256GB memory. In fact, it has Apple’s M1 chip, which is a powerful processor and was once top of the line for Apple. That’s not to say this is a flimsy machine. It’s a classic laptop option for students and casual users who love iOS and the Apple aesthetic but can’t afford the more expensive laptops.

Note how Microsoft Update is a voluntary opt-in service whose sole function is to provide updates to more than just Windows (Office, for instance). It’s so good, it has rendered those old, parasitic dinosaur programs from companies like Trend Micro obsolete.Īnd now, Microsoft has started offering MSE as an optional download via its optional Microsoft Update service. MSE always gets out of your way, has a small footprint, and you simply won’t notice its there. In recent times, however, Microsoft released the wonderfully lightweight and remarkably unobtrusive Microsoft Security Essentials, an anti-malware and anti-virus tool which runs on Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. Trend Micro is one of those companies which sells those awful anti-virus tools you were almost forced to use back in dark and cold days of Windows XP, that dreadful operating system Microsoft used to sell before they finally released a decent operating system with Windows 7 (yes, I always disliked Windows XP with a passion – what gave it away?) Microsoft recently began offering MSE as an optional download via the optional Microsoft Update service (which is not Windows Update), and Trend Micro ( a patent troll) is going into boo-hoo mode over it. Well, this was to be expected: an anti-virus company complaining that Microsoft’s Security Essentials – by far the best anti-virus tool for Windows – is anti-competitive. ![]() Respondus lockdown browser update11/1/2023 ![]() ![]() To determine if this is the case, use the “Help Center” icon in the LockDown Browser toolbar.

This is its main advantage and its main disadvantage. Scribus is cross-platform (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X). To really understand its value we must look at it pros and cons.ġ. It really needs to from install all the way to advanced work. But hopefully by the time that switch becomes reality, it will have improved. Scribus would be the best choice for sparse DTP needs. Still, I will keep working at this one, as one day I hope to switch to Linux fully and slave other OSes. well, just bad compared to programs of a similar focus. Constantly switching panes to set different things in just one paragraph, section, and/or page was tedious at times. Things that should be simple, such as inline / inlayout editing, are not. While Scribus is not that bad, I would not call it good and would not recommend it to anyone unfamiliar with DTP. I have used many moderate to top of the line DTP applications, all the way to the nightmare that is the industrial strength InDesign CC. I give high marks on that last part, but as to the rest. to some success on some minor projects for output to PDF.
