Along the way, I forgot the option was under the View tab. ![]() I wanted to show how to enable the Focus Mode in Word 2016 for Mac. In my case, initially, when the recording started, my mind was all over the place. You would be surprised how nervous you can be even in your own bedroom with nobody watching. What I discovered while testing out the software is that you should have a predefined script of what you want to cover. Once your screen starts recording, you can start performing any action as you normally would, and Camtasia will record your screen. This will add a film strip system icon to the menu bar. When you are ready to record, hit the start recording red button. You can also define camera settings, for example, if you would like to include an on-screen inset video of yourself to accompany your narration. For instance, you can record a full-screen project-best for viewing on a screen such as a computer or TV-or you can target a device such as the iPhone or iPad. When you are ready to record content, click the red record button in the upper-left corner of the window this will present a small dialog with options you can modify depending on the target device. Using your Mac’s built-in mic, you can explain how something works while showing how it’s done. Camtasia provides an integrated experience not only can I record a video of the interface, but I can accompany it with audio too. You can always hover over a button or menu to find out what it does. Camtasia does include an extensive library of training material if you want to learn about using all the features in depth. With no prior experience, I was able to get up and running in a short amount of time with no help from a manual or tutorial the interface is pretty much self-explanatory. At the bottom is the timeline, which lets you control the length of your recordings and add different clips and effects. A media bin lets you import existing recordings, clips, audio or pictures into your project. On the left is the assets and effects pane the viewer lets you review your captured content. The Camtasia interface is reminiscent of a video editor such as iMovie. The new project dialog also lets you jump right into recording. Users are greeted by a projects dialog where you can start or open a recent project. You can find the Camtasia app in your Applications folder or within Launchpad. Installation is quick and easy launch the DMG file, accept the end user license agreement, then drag and drop the Camtasia icon to the Applications folder. ![]() While preparing this review using version 2, I found out Camtasia released version 3, which is even better. You can download a fully functional 30-day trial to get a feel of how the software works. ![]() Camtasia is not free-the software can be bought standalone for $199 or bundled with the Snagit screenshot tool for $225.

In this review, we’re looking at Camtasia 3 for Mac, but they also have a Windows version with the same functionality. Camtasia, which is also made by TechSmith, seemed like a logical product to take for a spin. But we’ve also been working on more video content as well. For screenshots, TechSmith’s Snagit is our tool of choice. At groovyPost, we accompany all of our how-tos and reviews with ample screenshots. He challenged prevailing ideas about scientific racism and the social construction of race, demonstrated the connections between civilizations, and traced achievements of ethnic Africans, including some with mixed European ancestry.

![]() ![]() For most things three leading zeros is enough. For example, Image1 is followed by Image10, then Image2 if you have no leading zero in the file name. It’s good practice to include enough of these so your sorting looks okay. In each case you can choose an option with leading zeros. Note: When you use Edit in the Library version of renaming, you also get Folder Name as an option. The latter refers to the string of numbers at the end of the current filename (not necessarily the original file numbers). Image name has two options, Filename and Filename number suffix. Remember that text typed directly into the box will be added to all filenames, so use it sparingly (above there is only a hyphen added between tokens Custom Text and Sequence # to separate them).īelow this are the tokens, split into sections of similar information. Any item you click from the list below will be added to the box, in the order you click them. Next is the text box where the template is built. If you access rename files from the Library module it looks slightly different. Note this is the box you will see in the Import dialog popup. You’d think it would be, but nope, it’s not. Note that the Filename Template Editor is not exactly the same in each location you can use it in Lightroom. The contents of this list matches the one you saw in Import from the Template dropdown. At the top we see the current Template, or in a typically Lightroom fashion, it’s called a Preset here, versus being called a Template in Import. This opens the Filename Template Editor (below). As well as the type of File Naming, you can choose Custom Text/Shoot Name, a Start Number, and whether the file extension is upper or lower case.įile naming in Lightroom depends on Templates, so click on the Template list and choose Edit from the bottom of the list (shown above). It’s on the right hand side in the appropriately named File Renaming panel. The first place you see it is in the Import Dialog box when using one of the following settings: Move, Copy or Copy as DNG. The Dialog for creating File Naming Templates can be called up from a variety of places in Lightroom. Renaming in Lightroom uses a mix of tokens and direct text in the box. It also gives me additional search terms I can use when looking for a file. That way even outside Lightroom I can tell the contents of the file just from the name. In Custom Text field I put a little description of the shoot. For this reason, I use a custom text field that I change with each shoot that I import. A string of numbers doesn’t tell you what’s in the file though, even with some initials. It’s enough to create that unique pattern. Some photographers use those number sets and their initials to get the filename. You could just use this method and nothing else, but a series of numbers, while great for sorting, is generally meaningless to most people. You’d need to shoot 10,000 images in a day to get two identical names with this structure. Mixed together these give each file a unique name. The first is the date the photo was taken, and the second is the sequence number the camera creates (assuming you do use a continuous camera naming system). There are two number sets that can pretty much ensure this. First and foremost, each photo should have a unique name. ![]() If you’re using Lightroom, renaming is really straightforward and accessible from quite a few places in the application.īefore we talk about how to rename your files, let’s talk about what you should name them. Don’t laugh, I was there once upon a time after reading some terrible advice on camera settings. If you’re not using continuous naming you might even end up with hundreds of IMG_0001 files. IMG this or DSC that, or even P0235425653. Your standard camera names are generally pretty boring. This article is about how to build a useable file renaming strategy, and how to implement it in Lightroom. ![]() All it takes is one button to enable/disable VPN. No matter what device you’re using, even kids could navigate app. However, it doesn't mean that you're 100% safe, you should always be aware of the files that you're downloading and stay out of troubles. As I was going through reviews, I haven't noticed any negative comments related to torrenting. Other reviews would give you similar information. The simple explanation is that ISP can connect to all IP addresses downloading a specific torrent. ![]() ![]() But the important thing is that it works and you’re not left hanging, am I right? Torrenting and P2P? All InĮven though torrenting itself might seem quite secure but files you’re downloading can be a treat to your data.

Hence, it’s safe to say, that I usually keep my expectations low when talking about customer support.īut you do what you got to do, so let’s see what has to offer. Sometimes you have to wait for days to get an answer but it's even worse when you don't get an answer at all. I've experienced bad customer support many times before, so I know what it feels like not to get answers when in need. I did some extra testing, just in case, but all of the results showed the same - no IP or DNS leaks were found! Quite a Good Customer Support To make sure if serves its purpose, I always do the testing.įirst I connected to the Netherlands server and then tried to find my IP address. If IP or DNS leaks appear, it means that a VPN provider fails to keep up with its primary goal - to keep data that may identify you as a person secure. IP and DNS leaks are part of your security and anonymity online. Even if many VPNs use the same encryption, I still consider it as a major advantage. Therefore, makes sure to provide you with the best security out there. Banks, for example, use it to ensure safe money transfers. This encryption standard is being used when there's a need to protect the most valuable data. You may have heard about it in other reviews. VPN offers the strongest security on the market (so far). Security and logging policy are some of the major points you should pay attention to in this review.

Of course, you might say that it doesn’t prove anything, and I agree with you. Therefore, there’s no way for your identity or IP address to be revealed. VPN does not log any of your personal data and browsing activity. It’s short, simple and easy to understand. Since it’s review, let’s look into their privacy policy. Therefore, always pay attention to logging policy and even if VPN providers claim to provide you with complete anonymity, dig deeper to find out more details. Since you’re choosing a VPN provider to protect yourself and keep your identity unknown, you won't be happy to hear in this VPN review that some VPNs log your data, meaning that your security is being threatened.

We then propose to add a correlation correction function in the distance calculation to remedy this omission. In this paper, we show that a correlation term previously omitted in theoretical analysis cannot be ignored in patch distance calculation, especially when noise is large. ![]() Therefore, patch distance is paramount to the denoising performance of NLM. Because of these contextually related weights, image structure can be much better preserved for NLM. Patch similarity is measured by the Euclidean distance between two patches and pixels with smaller mutual distance have larger weights. Its distinctive feature is that the weight of a pixel depends on the similarity between two image patches. Non-local means (NLM) remove noise from an image by a weighted average process. ![]() Drake was one of the first rappers to rap and sing about being in his feelings. That’s the reason it took us so long to even be in touch with our emotions. But that’s not anybody’s fault, you know, when rap started it started from a very hard, rugged type of place because those people were living very hard, rugged lives. Sometimes it seems like there’s no room for being in touch with your feminine side, or being in touch with your emotions in general. It’s definitely a culture thing, having to act so ‘hard’ or masculine. Do you think this needs to change?ĭefinitely. Rap is usually seen as hyper-masculine and excludes effeminate men. I felt like there was nobody I could necessarily connect to, and with more and more rappers being open about their sexuality, I think you’re gonna see so many more kids feeling comfortable rapping like that. I hate watching anyone not have a voice, not being represented, because I felt like that for a long time, too. You see artists like Kevin Abstract and Brockhampton, I feel like what they’re doing is really liberating to a lot of fans of rap who also happen to be gay. I feel like that kind of inspired everybody else to do the same thing, and a lot of those rappers are gay, and they’re exactly who they are, they’re completely real and uncut. The kind of rap I went to high school with was like Drake and Wiz Khalifa, and none of them are gay but they’re artists who are pretty much free to express exactly who they are. There’s so many new rappers that are really free to express themselves, and I think it starts there. There’s still so much acceptance we have to find as a culture, but I do feel like the time is now. There’s a lack of gay men in mainstream rap music. I don’t understand how anybody could not be an ally. I would definitely consider myself an ally. I pretty much had family members from every different kind of background, so I never really had to learn how to accept other people. Do you consider yourself an ally?ĭefinitely! Growing up, I had a very diverse family. It’s almost effortless how incredible she is. We knew she was gonna kill it, we knew she’d sound amazing, and look, she fucking murdered it. She’s such a professional, as a singer, as a songwriter. I originally met Kehlani at a house party back in 2013, and she came over to my house to record songs. Thank you! I’ve known Kehlani for years now. We love your collaboration with Kehlani, and the video. ![]() It’s been two years in the making, and it also happens to be my birthday, so there’s gonna be a lot to celebrate. Hi KYLE! Your album is coming out this Friday. Here, we talk to KYLE about his friendship with Kehlani, mental health awareness, and why “the time is now” for LGBTQ rap artists. ![]() This week sees the release of KYLE’s debut album, Light of Mine, featuring his massive single iSpy – which peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 – and collaborations with Alessia Cara, Khalid and 2 Chainz. “ I think that me being open with my issues is good because I want kids to realise it’s okay to talk about your mental health,” says Kyle. KYLE is part of a new generation of artists who aren’t afraid to get in their feelings – especially when it comes to mental health – in a genre that historically hasn’t been very welcoming to more feminine, emotional men. ![]() “There’s still so much acceptance we have to find as a culture, but I do feel like the time is now.” So two times their volume, is going to be equal Look something like this, I'm gonna try to color code it. So the combined volume of these pyramids, let me just draw it that way. Volume of these two pyramids? Well, it's just going This pyramid also has dimensions of an x width, a y depth and a z over two height. If I were to just flip thatĮxisting pyramid on its head and look something like this. Now I can construct another pyramid has the exact same dimensions. We can even write it this way xy is z over two. Z over two, I'll just write times z over two or actually Times z, times the height of the pyramid, times z over two. Volume of the pyramid based on what we just saw over here? Well, that value would beĮqual to some constant k times x, times y, not So the rectangular prism has height z, the pyramid's height is So first, let's imagineĪ pyramid that looks something like this, where its width is x, its depth is y, so that could be its base. And to help us with that, let's draw a larger rectangular prism and break it up into six pyramids, that completely make up the Volume of the parameter is roughly of the structure. And what we're going to do in this video is have an argument as to Pyramid is equal to x times y times z, times some constant. Sense that, all right maybe the volume of the The pyramid on the surface, it's just like that. The pyramid is fullyĬontained inside of it. So that would give you the volume of this thing, which is clearly bigger, has a larger volume The entire rectangular prism that contains the pyramid. But if you just multiplied xy times z, that would give volume of Three dimensions together and that would give you And so you might say well, I'm dealing with three dimensions, so maybe I'll multiply the You'll just call that, let's call that z. This distance right over here, which is the height of the pyramid. If you were to go from theĬenter straight to the top or if you were to measure This dimension right over here, the length right over here is y. Sense of what the formula for the volume of a pyramid might be. We look at the formula, we could have a more general version. And I'll draw one with a rectangular base. So let's just start byĭrawing ourselves a pyramid. ![]() Is to give us an intuition or to get us some arguments as to why that is the formulaįor the volume of a pyramid. And many of you might already be familiar with the formula for The formula for calculating the surface area involves the area of the base, the perimeter of the base, and the slant height of any side.- In this video, we're going to talk about the volume of a pyramid. The surface area of a triangular pyramid with three congruent, visible faces is the area of those three triangular faces, plus the area of the triangular base. The surface area of a pyramid, SA, includes the base. Lateral surface area, LSA, does not include the base for our pyramid. ![]() Two different surface area measurements can be taken for any 3D solid: the lateral surface area and the surface area. No rule requires the base of a triangular pyramid to be an equilateral triangle, though constructing scalene or isosceles triangular pyramids is far harder than constructing an equilateral triangular pyramid. Regular and irregular triangular pyramids If a scalene or isosceles triangle forms the base, then the pyramid is a non-regular triangular pyramid. Triangular pyramid - faces, edges, and vertices Regular triangular pyramidĪ pyramid with an equilateral triangle base is a regular triangular pyramid. Triangular pyramid definition Triangular pyramid faces, edges, and vertices A triangular pyramid is a pyramid with a triangular base. The Great Pyramids of Egypt in Giza, for example, is a square pyramid because its base (bottom) is a square. Just as you can have a triangular pyramid, you can also have a rectangular pyramid, a pentagonal pyramid, etc. There are many types of pyramids, and all pyramids are named by the shape of their bases. The base of a pyramid can be any two-dimensional geometric shape: |
