![]() SOLIDWORKS relies heavily on the graphics driver for manipulating models in the workspace, so it is vital to keep these up to date.Ĭlick here to view the list of certified graphics drivers and hardware for SOLIDWORKS. If drivers are not regularly kept up to date, or the incorrect drivers are installed (or no drivers installed at all), then the System can have problems driving (or controlling) the hardware. Graphics drivers are the basic software programs that allow the OS software to communicate with the hardware. COMMON ISSUES THAT MAY CAUSE CRASHINGĭespite the unique nature of most crashes and instability, there are a few common issues that repeatedly occur in many cases. The OS (Microsoft Windows) is the basic method and UI for interacting with the desktop and managing files (Windows Explorer) and launching apps or softwareĪpplications are defined as the software packages that appear in windows and run on top of an OS allowing you to use productivity or design suites and their internal tools/features (e.g. Applications run on top of operating Systems and the two are integrated together quite heavily - therefore problems with one can adversely affect another. Given this, almost every case we see needs to be handled on an individual basis.Īs mentioned, crashes are classed on two levels, Operating System (OS) crashes and Application crashes. Unfortunately, there is no single cause for these problems as there are almost always limitless combinations of factors at play, from inefficient software configurations to hardware failures. SOLIDWORKS and other programs may force close or shut down unexpectedly which can cause a loss of data if a problem occurs between the code in SOLIDWORKS, the data set or the OS/Hardware.Ĭrashes and system instability can be frustrating due to the unpredictable nature of these events and the impact it has on productivity. These are commonly where Windows displays an error message and starts to collect information on/or report the crash because a basic level problem has occurred usually with the data set. There are two types of crashes to be aware of: These issues are usually indicated by the infamous 'busy thinking' circle.Ĭrashes are described as abnormal termination of a program, either by force closing, unrecoverable lock up, or the failure to execute a command correctly in the program code. If a network connection drops off whilst working with files, this can also cause applications to hang or slow down whilst the System tries to reconnect. This can be identified by System sluggishness and intermittent issues when opening, modifying, and saving files. What most people might describe as ‘instability’ with SOLIDWORKS is usually referred to as poor performance or an Application Hang.Īn Application Hang is described as the temporary lock-up or freezing of the System whilst a command is processed. Instability is a blanket term so it can be difficult to investigate. It’s helpful to know the difference between the two when communicating with our Technical Engineers so we can help you out as quickly as possible. Kcress - RE: Draftsight instantly crashing.Firstly, let’s separate and define instability and crashes, as they can have different causes. Since there were no pointers to this on the interweb I thought I'd put something somewhere (here). I went with updating and everything works fine (for now). ![]() Seems they failed to keep up with some certificate and since DS runs home to momma on starting the lack of a valid certificate rudely kills it without even a message. Going to the DS site I'm greeted with this: After trying everything else, re-installing was the last thing to try. I work the web, try all the purported solutions, noting that re-installing doesn't fix this. ![]() It puts up the splash screen then plasters a "Program has quit operating" Windoz window over the top of that. Been dreading a job I have to do and go to open DS and blech. My free license has expired but won't let me update, etc, etc,Īnywho. ![]() I cringe when clicking it open because I'd say about 70% of the time it fails for some screwball reason. ![]() If you’re keen to seriously upgrade your smartphone’s camera rig, this is a fantastic all-in-one package for doing so. The only reason it's last on our list is that we've included some of the lenses individually above but if you want complete versatility, the kit is worth it. However, it’s still an immensely impressive kit, and well-priced too, for what you get. Some will be more useful than others you’ll find yourself reaching for a telephoto or macro a lot more than an extreme fisheye. The kit puts at your disposal an 18mm wide-angle, a 230° fisheye, a 1.33x anamorphic, a 60mm telephoto, a 75mm long-range macro, and a 25mm traditional macro – all of which can be radically transformative for a phone camera. The lenses themselves are hugely impressive. Keep in mind with these ShiftCam lenses that you will need a dedicated case or phone mount adaptor to attach them to your phone. The kit can be bought with dedicated mounts for iPhone 11 or iPhone 13, or there’s a universal lens mount accessory that’ll slide over most normal-sized smartphones (check the ShiftCam website for a full compatibility breakdown). ![]() ShiftCam recently debuted its photography kit of six lenses for smartphones, and we have to say we’ve been really impressed. ![]() Read our full ShiftCam Pro Videographers Kit review for more details It was easy to de-squeeze the footage in Final Cut Pro (there is a handy video on YouTube that shows you exactly how to convert it) and it really does make everything you shoot with it look that little more pro. I was pleasantly surprised with the horizontal lens flares you achieved with the anamorphic lens. I actually preferred the universal adapter as I found the case mount moved around a bit and the universal one stayed firmly in place. Both lenses are really easy to use and can either be attached to the front of your phone using the phone-specific case mount or the universal adapter. The ShiftCam Videography ProLens Kit includes a 1.33x anamorphic lens and a 60mm telephoto lens so that you can shoot ultra-wide and extra zoomed-in without degrading the image quality. However, smartphone lenses are getting so good these days you no longer have to spend an insane amount of money to invest in a kit that will help you shoot professional-looking films. If your expensive 70-200mm f/2.8E will be gathering dust in the studio because of its weight, then you should opt for the lighter 70-210mm f/4.Videography can be an expensive game to get into it after you've added up the cost of the best camera for video, the best cine lenses, and all the accessories you might need. ComfortĬonsider how comfortable it will be for you to travel with your new lens. However, if weight and size are not a problem and quality is your main concern, then an f/2.8 lens is the best choice for you. If you look at the weight and size of these options, you’ll find that an f/2.8 telephoto lens is twice as wide and weighs significantly more. For example, you can see options with f/2.8, f/4 DO and an f/5.6 aperture among 400mm lenses. Moreover, the fastest models are more expensive than more traditional options. ApertureĮxtremely fast apertures are quite rare among super-telephoto lenses. Lenses with a focal length of 300mm or more are great for sports and wildlife photographers. If you need to capture an athlete on the opposite side of the stadium or an animal that you cannot get close to, the lens’ ability to record or photograph an object in such situations is very important. The focal length is a key feature when choosing a tele zoom lens. Optical stabilization and/or a wide maximum aperture are required for capturing low-light scenes. ![]() Also, you should consider the lighting conditions. EnvironmentĪre you planning to photograph primarily outdoors? If yes, then you need to look for a long range zoom lens with reliable protection from water, dust, etc. If you are looking to photograph sporting events or safaris, then you need more than a 200mm lens. If you are a portrait or wedding photographer, then buying the Sigma 150-600mm lens is not a worthwhile investment. When choosing a telezoom lens, you should consider your subject. ![]() Anand quoted in an interview that "I remember when I gate-crashed into the office of the man who gave me the first break, he kept looking at me – Babu Rao Pai of Prabhat Film Studios. Anand aspired to become a performer after seeing Ashok Kumar's performance in films such as Achhut Kanya and Kismet.

One of Dev's younger sisters is Sheel Kanta Kapur, who is the mother of film director Shekhar Kapur. Dev was the third of four sons born to Anand. His father Pishori Lal Anand was a well-to-do advocate in Gurdaspur District Court. Throughout the 70s and 80s, he starred in many box office hits such as Johny Mera Naam (1970), which was highest grosser of the year, Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971), Banarasi Babu (1973), Heera Panna (1973), Amir Garib (1974), Warrant (1975), Des Pardes (1978), Lootmaar (1980) and Swami Dada (1982), Hum Naujawan (1985) and Lashkar (1989).Īnand was born Dharamdev Pishorimal Anand on 26 September 1923 in the Shakargarh tehsil of the Gurdaspur district in Punjab (British India).

In later years, he starred many successful films such as Jaal (1952), Pocket Maar (1956), Munimji (1955), Funtoosh (1956), Paying Guest (1957) and Kala Pani (1958). His breakthrough Baazi (1951), is regarded as the forerunner of the spate of "Bombay Noir" films that followed in Bollywood in the 1950s. In 1949, Anand launched his own company Navketan Films, under this banner, he produced and directed some of his most successful films. In the late 40s, Anand was offered a few roles starring as the male lead opposite singer-actress Suraiya in woman-oriented films such as Vidya (1948), Jeet (1949), Afsar (1950) and Sanam (1951). ![]() In 1946, he debuted with a lead role in Prabhat Films' Hum Ek Hain, a film about Hindu-Muslim unity.

However, it’s more than just a temporary storage space for information. Working memory is the ability to use, manipulate and perform complex tasks on numbers, letters, and items. In this test, we are measuring the participants ability to recall their explicit memory with animal images. Riding a bike, tying a shoe, or typing on a keyboard are examples of tasks potentially stored in implicit memory. This is primarily affected by past experiences no matter how long ago those experiences occurred. ![]() ![]() Implicit memory, on the other hand, is the unconscious memory of skills and how to do things. This category can be further subdivided into episodic memory, which pertains to personal events or “episodes”, and semantic memory, which stores general world knowledge that we have accumulated throughout our life. Explicit memory refers to conscious, intentional recollection of factual information, previous experiences, and concepts. Long-term memory can be divided into two main types: explicit (or declarative) and implicit (or non-declarative). There are two types of long term memory: implicit and explicit. In this memory test, we use animal images to test your visual memory by showing you 3 animals at first and asking you to recall the same 3 animals at the end. On the other hand, if you train every day, you will be able to notice the result much faster.In Cognitive Psychology, long term memory is classified as information stored and retrieved for longer than a few minutes. If you think you have a problem with this, you can quickly improve the state of this memory using various techniques. The state of the eidetic memory is different for everyone, and it depends on how often you use it and train it. It would be an excellent result if you could get an additional 2 – 3 seconds to the original indicator during the week. Control measurements of the state of the memory are made to track your progress since dynamics are of great importance here. The first results from training become noticeable after a few weeks. However, the best results can be achieved at 18 – 25 years, and the worst is over 50, which is explained by age-related changes. Research shows that this gives an excellent result in various return categories, regardless of what activities a person engages in daily life. After that, the system will create an individual training program for you. So, before you start using the mobile application, you need to pass a short test and answer questions about the goals of your classes. In addition, the system considers each client’s individual needs and the initial level of memory before training. You can also perform various exercises to improve memory and imagination, which are actively used in school. If you miss even one day, you will notice that the result will be much worse. Please do such activities every day in the evening. In the future, you will be able to conduct the same workouts without a stopwatch. Later you can increase this to 15 seconds. If the state of this memory is bad enough, you will get 2 – 3 seconds, and if good – up to 10. ![]() In the first few seconds, it will be very bright and detailed when the picture starts to blur, you need to turn off the stopwatch. Look at the picture for 30 seconds, close your eyes, and turn on the stopwatch to try to imagine the image you saw. You need to select an image and take a stopwatch to do this. In both cases, you do not need to go to different courses.īefore you start training, you must conduct a test to understand the initial memory state. There are 2 ways to improve eidetic memory: simple workouts and a mobile app. Therefore, if you wish, you can maximize this indicator if you practice a little. At the same time, almost everyone has an eidetic memory, but it is developed differently for everyone. ![]() In over a month, Star Wars fans will finally catch the first episode of Ahsoka on August 23. He is also seen with a couple of Stormtroopers, reinforcing the fact that he's trying to unite the Empire once again to topple the New Republic. Similar to how the Imperial leader appeared in the Rebels animated series, the blue-skinned Thrawn is seen here in his iconic white uniform, complete with the sharp cheekbones and bright red eyes of a Chiss.

The company must also establish a comprehensive privacy program and delete the data it allegedly gathered in violation of COPPA. The FTC said that as part of its children’s privacy settlement, Epic may no longer enable text and voice chat by default for teenage Fortnite players or those under the age of 13. The company also recently rolled out a more limited version of “Fortnite” for younger players that allows them to access some features while awaiting parental consent but that restricts chat and purchases. In its blog post, Epic said it has agreed with the FTC to implement a feature that explicitly asks Fortnite users whether to save their payment information for future use. The agreement will last for 20 years from the time it is adopted. Those design choices were allegedly implemented after surveys showed that, when the cancel button was more prominently displayed, accidental charges were the “number one ‘reason’” users clicked on the button, the FTC said.Įpic’s agreement with the FTC, which is not yet final, prohibits the company from using dark patterns or charging consumers without their consent, and also forbids Epic from locking players out of their accounts in response to users’ chargeback requests with credit card companies disputing unwanted charges. The FTC further alleged that Epic made it more difficult to cancel purchases of in-game items by burying the option at the bottom of the screen and by requiring consumers to push and hold a button on their controllers to complete the cancellation. The complaint claims Epic made it extremely easy for children to purchase in-game items with a single click or button press without parental approval, resulting in more than one million parental complaints to Epic about unwanted charges. The allegations of Epic’s deceptive design choices were filed as an FTC administrative complaint. ![]() In addition to the alleged illegal collection of children’s data, the FTC also claimed that Epic’s default settings for matchmaking and in-game communications exposed children to bullying and harassment. The FTC’s complaint and proposed settlement dealing with children’s privacy was filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina. “Protecting the public, and especially children, from online privacy invasions and dark patterns is a top priority for the Commission, and these enforcement actions make clear to businesses that the FTC is cracking down on these unlawful practices,” Khan said in a statement. “We accepted this agreement because we want Epic to be at the forefront of consumer protection and provide the best experience for our players.”įTC Chair Lina Khan said the settlement reflects the agency’s heightened focus on privacy and so-called “dark patterns,” a term used to describe design elements intended to nudge users toward a company’s preferred result. “No developer creates a game with the intention of ending up here,” Epic said in the blog post. In a blog post addressing the twin settlements, Epic said the agreement reflects an evolution in how US laws are applied to the video gaming industry. That agreement is the largest administrative order in FTC history, the FTC added. In a second and separate settlement, Epic will pay $245 million as refunds to consumers who were allegedly harmed by user-interface design choices the FTC claimed were deceptive.
