koolalien * Blog PHANTOM SCREENS NASHVILLE 1/23/2024 0 Comments We are a couple who doesn’t mind doing the work ourselves as much as possible to save money, but some things we cannot do. We’ve done several projects down on the patio since we’ve been here including the DIY rock wall, the aluminum under deck ceiling, and the new DIY faux tile floor. We began to think about what we could do here and decided that since we have that huge patio down below and the ceiling is 8′ tall, it would make a great space to screen in for shade from the sun. I so enjoyed the porch at my other house. We’ve still got a master bathroom that we want to improve, which is going to be costly and there are several more projects inside and out that we will want to spend money on, so an upper deck screen porch was not going to happen in this house. We have to choose the projects that will give us the most return for our money. That would be a bare bones porch.įor us, since we are getting closer to retirement, we just don’t have that kind of money in the budget to do a project like this. That’s a low estimate and I know many screen porches cost much more than that. I had a quick ballpark estimate from a company that was out here doing something else for me and he said it would cost at least $15K to add a screen porch,which is what I figured anyway. I knew from experience that adding a roof and screening is like adding a new room so it would be very costly. That’s ideal because you can just walk outside the kitchen and have a covered porch. We’ve been in our house for two years now and the first thing I thought of when we moved in was adding a screen porch up above on the deck. This was definitely a project for the professionals. I’m still pinching myself that I had the opportunity to collaborate with them on this backyard project of ours. Hi friends! It’s another exciting day around here and I’m sharing how adding motorized Phantom Screens has completely changed the way we are going to live in our backyard. Excitement, joy and pinch me moments are all mine!

Improving the beginner experience (for developers, contributors, and end-users). Ease-of-use and total cost of ownership (especially, difficult major version upgrades).The Drupal community identified a few key areas that drove this sentiment among the developers and end-users surveyed: Graphic used with permission from Drupal founder Dries Buytaert. It's telling that only the expert level users have a positive impression of the clarity of using Drupal and would generally recommend it to others. A sentiment survey of Drupal and other open source and proprietary CMSs found that Drupal's most negative sentiment comes from beginning users, but that sentiment becomes increasingly positive with users' expertise on the platform. We could try to shrug this off as simply a result of how widely used Drupal is, but we have better data than that. The elePHPant in the roomĪs I write this post, I'm cognizant that Drupal has the infamous distinction of having earned the place of second Most Dreaded Web Framework in Stack Overflow's 2020 developer survey, and PHP, the underlying language it is written in, is sixth on the Most Dreaded language list.Ĭertainly that's not a badge that any open source community would wear with pride-so what is it about Drupal 9 that makes it worth a second look? But if that's the image in your head when you think about Drupal, it's time to take another look. For many developers, 'CMS' conjures specters of the late 2000s-a decade in which Internet Explorer still held 65% of browser market share, the HTML5 specification had not yet been proposed, Git was just establishing dominance in the VCS space, and jQuery was the JavaScript library de rigeur. This post is written by Tim Lehnen, the Chief Technology Officer of the Drupal Association (501c3), the non-profit organization dedicated to accelerating the Drupal software project, fostering the community, and supporting its growth.ĭrupal 9 has just been released, and the open source CMS is approaching its 20th year. note: Sometimes we feature guest authors whose industry experience can help illuminate what it's like to be developer today. 0 Comments MAC SPLIT SCREEN 2008 MACBOOK PRO 1/23/2024 0 Comments Related Read: 5 Best Auto Clickers for Mac 3. Lastly, if you use multiple screens, you get support for up to six external monitors with different orientations. Similar to Rectangle, Magnet also has a menu bar icon, which presents you with different window layouts to choose from for your desktop. These are customizable keyboard shortcuts, and you can change them to suit your preference. You can either use your mouse to drag and drop a window to your desired position or leverage the keyboard shortcuts to move windows. Talking about functionality, organizing and arranging windows is as simple as snapping application windows onto different positions on the screen. Unlike Rectangle, which is open-source and available for free, Magnet is a paid app downloadable from the Mac App Store. In some sense, this and Rectangle both share some similarities-however, the same ends with the pricing aspect. Magnet is another popular Mac window manager app and an alternative to Rectangle. If you already use a lot of shortcuts on your Mac and want to change the default ones on Rectangle, you can do so from the preferences. The latter requires you to memorize the shortcuts for different window setting layouts, but once you get acquainted, you can get quick and efficient at organizing your desktop. Arranging windows can be done either by clicking on the desired window setting from the menu bar or by using custom keyboard shortcuts. And the ease of use further adds to the experience. The set of functionalities offered on Rectangle are more than sufficient for most people. And second, it allows anyone with the knowledge of coding to come up with bug fixes and feature add-ons. Being open-source, Rectangle offers some conventional open-source advantages over its closed-source counterparts. It is free and open-source and the best solution out there for anyone just getting started with a window manager for the first time. Rectangle is my preferred tool of choice for managing windows on Mac. But, the approach involved and the functionality offered by each of them is what sets them apart. Most of these apps are very similar in terms of fundamental functionality - how they solve the window management problem. So, to help simplify the process for you, here is a curated list of some of the best window management software for macOS. And therefore, it is likely that you might be on the look for some better window managers for your Mac. To add to that, if you use it to manage your desktop, you would also be familiar with its shortcomings and the limited scope of use. If you are a macOS user and multitask with multiple apps at once, you would be aware of the built-in window manager functionality, Split View, that lets you run two apps simultaneously in a split window setting.

Tiger Woods hands forward at impact causing a solid strike every. Work hard to maintain a flat left wrist in the second half of your backswing motion, so that at the top of the swing the badge on the back of your golf glove points in front of you rather than straight up to the sky. Dustin Johnson may have most powerful swing, but his left wrist is bowed. Having a bowed left wrist at the top of the backswing as Johnson does would cause most golfers to pull or hook the golf ball due to the closed nature of the club face. Swing Sequence: Dustin Johnson What we can learn from Dustin Johnsons booming drives: Only a few tour pros have a shot that can make other tour pros stop what theyre doing on the range and have a look. Johnson is noticeably extending his hands down the ball to target line in the early part of his follow through. Making a full backswing to the top of your swing, you should work hard to maintain the correct spine angle, and for maximum distance like Johnson you should release aggressively in your downswing with your hips, and focus on extending your hands and arms as far towards the target as possible. READY TO RIP Notice two things in Dustin Johnson's driver setup: His stance is super wide, and the shaft is leaning significantly away from the target. This produces a very closed club face and Johnson has to work excessively hard during the downswing phase to ensure that the face does not return closed to impact and produce a hooked or pulled golf shot.Įven if you are not naturally gifted with Johnson's physical attributes, you should endeavour to make the most of what you have by assuming a confident and athletic set up position. The most prominent and noticeable action in the Johnson golf swing is the bowed nature of his left wrist at the top of the swing. This is particularly noticeable with his longer clubs and his driver. This allows him to effortlessly deliver his fast uncoiling body into a powerful impact position to drive the ball over 308 yards on average.įrom his athletic set up position, Dustin Johnson's superb flexibility sometimes gets him into trouble by allowing him to over swing the golf club, well beyond the horizontal position, at the top of the backswing. Having worked with Butch Harmon over the previous few seasons, Dustin Johnson is trying hard to maintain a taller spine angle at set up and throughout his golf swing. At 6 feet 4 inches tall, strong, lean and with superb flexibility, it is with little surprise that Dustin Johnson often leads the driving distance statistics at many golf tournaments. If you could choose the physical attributes for a golfer that you were designing to hit the ball a long way, Dustin Johnson would come pretty close to ticking most of the boxes. Johnson’s jaw-dropping potential was clear as soon as he arrived on tour as a soul-patched 23-year-old out of Coastal Carolinathe swing speed, the touch around the greens and the why-not. 0 Comments GOOGLE CHROME HELPER 1/23/2024 0 Comments Microsoft Edge offers a feature called “Collections” that serves as another way to organize links into groups. You can organize your bookmarks or favorites into folders. You can bookmark your favorite pages for easy access later.īoth browsers let you pin some of these favorites to the top bar and put others into a drop-down list. Bookmarks and FavoritesĬhrome calls them bookmarks, and Edge calls them favorites, but the concept is the same. There’s not much difference here - both browsers let you choose a color and name for each group and will automatically shuffle your tabs so that tabs in the same group are next to each other. There are extensions in the Chrome Web Store that can create a similar effect, but none of them function as smoothly as Microsoft Edge’s native vertical tabs.Įdge and Chrome also allow you to create tab groups. However, Edge gives you the option to switch to a row of vertical tabs on the left side of the page.Ĭhrome doesn’t have an equivalent built-in vertical tab feature. Tabsīy default, both Chrome and Edge put your tabs in a row at the top of your screen. The differences are minor and mostly come down to personal preference. For example, you can have multiple tabs open in each window, and you can bookmark your favorite pages. If you’re used to Google Chrome, the Microsoft Edge user interface will feel pretty familiar (and vice versa). Let’s go through the features one by one. You can use them for browsing privately, seamlessly surfing the net, and it’s a simple matter to clear your cache on both. As competitors, Microsoft and Google usually don’t allow gaps between the two products to last long. Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome have a lot of similarities. □□ See how these two options stack up in this guide Click to Tweet Key Features of Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge Browsersīefore we take a deeper look into Chrome and Edge, here’s a quick overview of the key features of each. Given that the average person spends almost 7 hours per day on the internet, there's a good chance you have a favorite browser. However, it still only has a 3.4% market share, so it has quite a way to go to catch Chrome. Microsoft’s switch to Chromium made Edge much more competitive with Chrome in several ways that we’ll get into in a bit. Microsoft Edge is available for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and Linux. Edge replaced Microsoft Internet Explorer as the default browser, and in 2022, IE will be retired completely.Įdge was originally an HTML-based browser, but in 2020 Microsoft released a new version of Edge based on Chromium, the same Google open-source software that Chrome uses. Microsoft released Edge in 2015 with Windows 10 and Xbox One. These two browsers and many others are constantly battling for market share. Most of Google Chrome’s source code is based on Chromium, a free, open-source software project from Google. ( Source: Backlinko)Ĭhrome was initially built to run on Windows and was later released for Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android. Today, it has a 65.27% market share, while Internet Explorer has fallen to just 0.61%. Google Chrome overtook Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox within a few years to become the market leader. Before its release, Edge’s precursor Internet Explorer (IE) reigned supreme with a peak market share of 95%. The most popular browser in the world was born in 2008. 0 Comments MYST STEAM BADGE 1/23/2024 0 Comments But what is new is the process of upscaling those graphics back to a point where they're (hopefully) indiscernible from a native render. Now, down-rendering like this is nothing new, and multiplayer gamers in particular have been manually adjusting their resolution for extra performance for years. This effectively increases the frame rate of the game and eases the burden on the GPU, all without sacrificing the fidelity of the image to do it. But it's actually rendering on the graphics card at a resolution closer to 1440p. By turning on Nvidia DLSS or AMD FSR to "Quality Mode" (one of several available, from "Ultra Quality' to "Ultra Performance," depending on the game), your output image will, in theory, look as good as 4K. If the GPU is natively rendering all 8.3 million pixels of each frame, it's going to have to work more than twice as hard as it would to render at 2,560 by 1,440 pixels. Say, for example, you're running a game at 4K resolution. Why? Well, to increase performance, of course! Supersampling is a process in which a game is rendered by your graphics card at a lower resolution than the output of your monitor, and is then upscaled, or "supersampled," back up to the intended output resolution. If you've been following our coverage of both Nvidia's DLSS and AMD's FSR over the years, you likely already know how these two technologies work.įor anyone who's just tuning in, a quick definition. Nvidia DLSS: How Does Supersampling Work?įirst up, a quick primer on supersampling. But now, it's AI's turn to pick up a pike and head to the frontlines. With the recent relaunch of Myst for PC and Xbox, we decided to put the two options head-to-head for the first time, testing both the visual fidelity and the frame rate of the game to see which supersampler comes out on top.ĪMD and Nvidia have gone toe-to-toe for years in the battle for hardware supremacy. But will that shader-based approach live up to the same level of quality and performance we've come to expect from games enhanced with Nvidia's DLSS? Until now, it was hard to compare supersampled apples to supersampled apples. Instead of relying on expensive hardware to drive its supersampling tech, AMD uses a shader-level implementation, giving FSR a vastly larger number of compatible GPU options for gamers to choose among.
