Temperatures will be more or less steady for some years, and thereafter will pickup again and continue to warm". "The strong warming effect that we experienced during the last decades will be interrupted. When he factored these natural fluctuations into his global climate model, professor Latif found the results would bring the remorseless rise in average global temperatures to an abrupt halt. Professor Mojib Latif, from the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences at Kiel University in Germany, has been looking at the influence of cyclical changes to ocean currents and temperatures in the Atlantic, a feature known as the North Atlantic Oscillation.

We’ll see what the future of Battlefield holds, but word is that DICE is concentrating solely on Battlefield, and leaving Battlefront on ice for a while, and we’ll see if they can get out of this 2042 era slump next time around. The real shooter “winner” so far has clearly been Halo, even before the campaign release next week, where that game’s main problems are not technical or gameplay based, but only complaints about its battle pass and microtransactions, which are pretty easily remedied. But EA’s desire to get it out for the holiday season at all costs meant that it simply was not ready for release, and DICE has had to spent a huge amount of time fixing its issues or promising to restore cut “legacy” features.Ĭall of Duty isn’t exactly having a super blockbuster year with Vanguard, but they lucked out with all the issues Battlefield 2042 has faced. Battlefield 2042 was meant to be an experiment of what happens when you take a game like this, ditch the campaign entirely, and just focus on multiplayer. Lost Planet 2 is set ten years after the first game, after the particular band of Snow Pirates that the first game centered on (you remember Luka, right No) devised and put into action a much more every-living-thing-friendly version of the Frontier Project. Lost Planet 2, the sequel to Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, the landmark third-person shooter that sold over 2. Wombo uses artificial intelligence to create a deepfake, or a reconfigured video close to reality. In the future, Wombo hopes to collaborate with musicians or advertisers who can benefit from the cross promotion. Users can pay for a premium version of the app for $4.49 a month or $29.99 a year, giving them faster processing and no ads, or can use the app for free and get served ads. PB | ⚠️ Suggestive Warning ⚠️ March 11, 2021 There are currently 15 different tracks you can use on the app, ranging from Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" to internet classics like "Numa Numa." According to Benkhin, they are still working on "the rights issue" but they do have "arrangements with a few different artists." Moving ahead, Benkhin hopes that musicians will want to bring their music over to the "because it'll give them an entirely new way to engage with their audience in a viral and funny way." Is Wombo.ai safe?Īccording to the app's privacy policy, your "facial feature data" is only stored on the app to create the video and then "deleted immediately after." Data is relayed over to Amazon Web Services for "photo animation capabilities" and "product intelligence" for "behavioral analytics platform" Amplitude. As of now, copyright holders haven't caused issues with the app, but Benkhin said "who the hell knows what's going to happen?" The app allows anyone to use any image, with a majority of the popular shares using copyrighted characters and songs. Using some "complicated math" that Benkhin does not "have the exact technical description of" the app processes the image and spits out a cute video or an abomination of cursed excellence. That motion is applied to a model that is then mapped with the images users submit. A performer executes a series of facial, eye, and lip movements along with the song. How does Wombo.ai work?īehind each song is a driving video that the developers make in their studio using motion capture. With just seven people on staff, Wombo.Ai rolled out a beta in January before launching and immediately picking up steam with its odd creations. He first got the idea for Wombo in August of last year, capitalizing on his affinity and love for artificial intelligence technology. "My whole goal with Wombo is to make it easy for anyone to make a hilarious, shareable, and entertaining piece of content of themselves."īenkhin spent the previous five years running a website design agency in Toronto before taking the leap and designing an app of his very own. "One can get in front of a camera and sing a song and do a funny or interesting or entertaining performance, but with AI, anyone can," CEO of Wombo.ai Ben-Zion Benkhin told Insider. Using artificial intelligence to transform any picture into a singing video, the app has soared up the iOS and Play Store charts with over 2.2 million downloads and 15 million Wombo videos created. Over the past two weeks, the Wombo.Ai app has spread across social media, creating deepfake copies of figures like Kim Jong-Un or the Mona Lisa lip-syncing to a selection of meme songs. Your understanding is greatly appreciated. We know this is a great disappointment for fans and all concerned parties. Quietly going about his business in 2021, achieving top ten results and bagging his best finish of the year in the final race of his rookie season Kohta. After close consultations with the series promoter DORNA Sports, we decided that we have no choice but to call off the event. In light of the current situation - including domestic and international travel and restrictions about staying - we came to the conclusion that at this point we are not able to guarantee that the event can be held. Why go: Passionate tifosi, beautiful part of the world combine. In order to complete the planning for the second half of the season, the final decision to hold the MotoGP™ World Championship Series Grand Prix of Japan, which is planned to be held in October had to be made in mid June. Following the cancellation of the Malaysian Grand Prix, MotoGP has added a second race at Misano World Circuit to its 2021 schedule. However, Mobilityland Corporation has decided to cancel this year's event. The 2021 FIM MotoGP™ World Championship Series Grand Prix of Japan was to be held at the Twin Ring Motegi (Motegi, Tochigi Prefecture) from Oct. 2021 FIM MotoGP™ World Championship Series Grand Prix of Japan This may not be best answer but, I had to initialize app with admin and firebase like below.

And in the recent LinkedIn job search for positions in the US, SOLIDWORKS skills rank highest at 5 600 job posts while Autodesk Inventor skills rank lowest at 450 job postings. Com, one - third of job openings seeking 3D CAD skills in the US are for SOLIDWORKS users. Jay Vleeschhouwer, Managing Director at Griffin Securities, said that: by our calculation, SOLIDWORKS has probably close to one - third of the entire industry's active base of users, by far the largest. * Please keep in mind that all text is machine-generated, we do not bear any responsibility, and you should always get advice from professionals before taking any actionsĪnother reason for switching to SOLIDWORKS is the benefits that come from being part of the largest user community of any 3D CAD System. * Please keep in mind that all text is machine-generated, we do not bear any responsibility, and you should always get advice from professionals before taking any actions. Licence Types and recommend Retail Price As great as technology can be, sometimes when two offerings seem similar, it can come down to commercial aspects and boil down to things like How can I buy software? While SOLIDWORKS offers 3D Modelling and 2D detailing capabilities, it lacks additional functionality that you take for grant inside Autodesk Inventor Professional and SOLIDWORKS Premium. Solidworks Professional comes with photo realistic Rendering capabilities, Content Centre Library, utilities for comparing files, macros, entry level Data Management Features plus a few other features. SOLIDWORKS, or SOLIDWORKS Standard can do 3D Part Modelling, Assembly Modelling, 2D drawings, Bill of Materials. However, it does not produce an automatic Bill of Materials. It can do multi - body parts, so you could Design Assembly in part environment. On Apples For Apples standpoint without getting bogged down in minor details, closest equivalent to Inventor Professional is SOLIDWORKS Premium Autodesk Inventor LT is Part only modeler that can do 2D detailing, with no Assembly Modelling or Analysis tools. I intend to compare Autodesk Suites to SOLIDWORKS 2016 and SOLIDWORKS 2017 Vs Inventor Professional 2017, when SOLIDWORKS 2017 is released later this year. Matching Apples With Apples Autodesk Inventor Professional Vs SOLIDWORKS For purpose of this comparison, I will be commenting on the latest releases: Inventor Professional 2017 to SOLIDWORKS 2016, SOLIDWORKS Professional 2016 and SOLIDWORKS Premium 2016. These options can become confusing when trying to compare your options. Here are various Options From Autodesk and SOLIDWORKS. Inventor LT is limited to 3D Part Modelling and 2D documentation and is available on Desktop Subscription for around 530 Ex. You can also buy a cut down version of Inventor called Inventor LT or in Suite called AutoCAD Inventor LT Suite. These Suites provide greater value, add functionality and integrated Workflows With including stand alone titles such as AutoCAD, 3ds Max, Navisworks, Revit etc. Autodesk Design Suites Autodesk give you the option of buying an Inventor in one of their Design Suites for a bit more than buying an Inventor alone and if you want an Inventor / Inventor Professional and another Autodesk Product such as AutoCAD, then the cost of Suite is cheaper than buying two separate licenses, so Autodesk bundle Inventor products in variety of Suites, such As Product Design Suite, Factory Design Suite, Plant Design Suite and Building Design Suite. Solidworks has three tiers, base version, SOLIDWORKS Professional and SOLIDWORKS Premium. The range of options Autodesk offers is light Inventor LT version, Autodesk Inventor Professional, Autodesk Inventor HSM or Autodesk Inventor or Inventor Professional in Autodesk Design Suite. Having used and supplied both, I 've put together licencing and feature comparison. Au With CAD systems constantly changing features, versions, licencing and subscription models, two of the most popular 3D CAD Options are Autodesk Inventor and SOLIDWORKS. For more information, contact Damien on 1800 223 562 or email Damien. See below comprehensive review by Damien Jovica, experienced user and supplier of both Autodesk Inventor and SOLIDWORKS software. The special effects are still jaw-dropping, the pacing is brisk, and the story is classic, but still somehow feels completely modern. It’s because the full imagination is on display in the original, and it just can’t be topped. Because, like Godzilla, the first one is the best one. Likewise, when ranking the King Kong movies, it’s common to see the original King Kong movie at number one. When ranking Godzilla movies, it’s common to see the original Godzilla at number one, and it’s because it’s the best Godzilla movie. Godzilla, but I know this is the movie that most fans prefer, so I’m putting it here on this list. I actually prefer King Kong Escapes to King Kong Vs. It’s simplistic, it’s ridiculous, and it’s wonderful. Kong fights Godzilla twice, then they roll into the ocean together, the end. But, an American submarine wakes up Godzilla, and now we have a monster problem on our hands here. So, they find Kong, put him to sleep, and are going to use him. Well, jerk move that it was, we still got a pretty badass movie out of the betrayal.īasically, the story for the movie is that a TV producer wants to boost ratings for his company and thinks that a giant monster would do the trick. You see, Beck took the outline for the sequel O’Brien had penned, which originally had Kong fighting Frankenstein’s monster (!), and then sold it to Toho. O’Brien getting screwed out of the rights to the character by a sneaky producer named John Beck. In a nutshell, it deals with the original film’s stop-motion animator, Willis H. The story behind this movie is long and insane. I do like it, but again, it doesn’t need to exist. However, it just feels like an unnecessary retread, because it doesn’t do anything extremely different like The Blob remake, or David Cronenburg’s The Fly. He even climbs the World Trade Center in this one rather than the Empire State Building. There’s a cool scene where Kong fights a giant snake, and the parts where Kong is running amok through New York are pretty exciting, especially when he starts stomping on people. The special effects are really good for this one, but less charming than the original’s. But, uh oh, they didn’t account for the giant ape living there. This was the ‘70s, though, and why not remake King Kong, right? Also starring the Dude, Jeff Bridges, as a primate paleontologist, what sets the story forward this time around is oil, as an island in the Indian Ocean is thought to have it in droves. The original is pretty much perfect as it is. This was Jessica Lange’s first movie (She beat out Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn for the role!), but King Kong didn’t need to be remade. They are quite effective for small adjustments, but for a boost say beyond about 2/3-1 stop in shadow areas, I think he will find it lacking. I've been using Tony's luminosity masks for many years. I suppose the same technique could be used for B&W LF. First can multiple LF images that have been scanned be adequately registered using a software package? Has anyone tried this? Second, I'd like to preserve decent resolution for say a 16 X 20 print, so what are the prospects for doing this?Įssentially I'm not after gaudy effects but would like to preserve the natural rendering found in mostly Fuji Astia chromes. I've not seen any references for doing this in large format so I wonder about a couple of issues. My thought is to make three scans on an Epson 750 then move them to an HDR package such as Photomatix to combine and tweak, then move to PS for final tweaking. I've not fiddled with HDR software at all so have no experience with the technique. Since these are principally chromes with rather crappy dynamic range I've recently had the thought of combining these using some kind of HDR technique to increase dynamic range. This for mostly scenes I thought were particularly unique at the time. Usually that consists of three exposure brackets, one centered and one each under and over at 1 to 2 stops. So my advice is to test your lens and use one that’s got minimal breathing.Over the years I have occasionally taken multiple images using 4X5 film. While often associated with more dramatic examples with certain zoom lenses, primes are not immune to the problem by any means, and the re-adjusting of the frame could be problematic for this type of process – especially if working within a small frame. Since this really is the crucial part, I feel it pertinent to mention that you should be aware of the lens you’re using in regards to lens/focus breathing. So you can see that once the images are taken, the rest is essentially automated, and the bulk of the work is during the process of shooting. Photoshop at this point will scan each image and create layer masks for each frame so that just the in-focus parts are revealed. Finally, you’ll hit “ Edit > Auto Blend Layers” and check the option for “ Seamless Tones and Colors.” That’s really it. You’d then select “ Attempt to Automatically Align Source Images” within the dialogue box, after which all images will be loaded and aligned. ( File > Script > Load Files Into Stack). Once in Photoshop, the process is rather simple, as you’ll just bulk load the images files into a ‘Stack’ and Photoshop gives you that option with a single click.
