Fliqlo macbook air6/27/2023 ![]() That being said, the more general solution to the problem is to kill the offending process, with the help of the Activity Monitor. In my friend’s case the process that had Yes in the Preventing Sleep column was named “AirPlayUIAgent.” I don’t have an AppleTV so I don’t know much about AirPlay, so one possible solution to her problem was to find a way to turn AirPlay off. If there had been a Yes in that column, it would indicate that the HP Device Monitor is preventing the screensaver from running. This means that the process that’s identified by that row is the one that’s stopping the screensaver from working.Īs an example of what I mean, imagine that the “HP Device Monitor” row in this image had a Yes in the Preventing Sleep column: The thing to do now is to scroll through the Preventing Sleep column and look for the word “Yes.” If you have the same problem my friend had, one (or more) of these rows will show the word Yes instead of No. This will cause a new “Preventing Sleep” column to be shown in the table, as shown in this image:įinding the process that’s preventing the screensaver from working With this popup menu displayed, move to the bottom of it and select the Preventing Sleep menu item. This brings up the popup menu shown in this image: For example, right-click the Process Name name column header. To do that, right-click on any of the header fields. What you need to do next is add a column named “Preventing Sleep” to this view. When that column is sorted alphabetically it will look like this: (You may have to click it twice to sort it in order from A to Z, rather than Z to A.) The nice part of this step is that the processes will quit jumping around. This sorts all of the processes alphabetically. To stop things from moving around, click the header of the Process Name column. This is because by default, the view is sorted by the %CPU column. As the Activity Monitor runs you’ll probably see the processes jump around in the view. ![]() This starts the Activity Monitor application, which looks like this:Īfter starting the Activity Monitor, make sure the CPU tab is selected, as shown in the previous image. Inside the Utilities folder, click the Activity Monitor icon: First, click the Applications icon in your Dock, and then scroll down and click the Utilities folder: To see this, start the Activity Monitor by following these steps. Using the Mac Activity Monitor to see which process is “preventing sleep”Īt first I thought we’d have to go to the Mac command line to solve this problem, but then I read that you can see which processes are “preventing sleep” by using the Mac Activity Monitor application. ![]() This can happen because a programmer forget to set it back, or because the application crashed, or in the case of the example that follows, because the application was still running in the background. When this becomes a problem is when that setting doesn’t get set back to the way it was before. ![]() AirPlay and other applications do the same thing. This is what the Netflix programmers do, they tell MacOS to keep the screensaver from starting while a video is playing. One way to think of it is like this: Imagine that you’re watching Netflix on your Mac you don’t want the screensaver to kick in right in the middle of a good movie, right? As programmers, what we do is toggle a little MacOS setting that lets us keep the screensaver from starting. BackgroundĪs a small piece of background to this general problem, what’s probably happening is that there is a process (application) running on your Mac that’s preventing your screensaver from starting. Note: If you don’t care what’s causing the problem and you just want it to go away, you can try rebooting your Mac at this time. The rest of this tutorial explains the process of troubleshooting the problem, which can go way beyond AirPlay. When we did that, the AirPlay process was automatically restarted, but when it starts running again it doesn’t interfere with the screensaver. The solution to her particular problem was to kill the AirPlay process running on her Mac. From what I can tell, after she did that AirPlay doesn’t automatically shut itself off, and it was preventing the screensaver from starting. The short story of the problem (and solution) is that she had used Apple’s AirPlay to mirror her computer screen to her AppleTV. The same problem happened to a friend, and after a LOT of research, we were able to work through it to get her Mac screensaver working again. If you have a problem where your Mac/ macOS screensaver won’t start, I hope to be able to help you in this article.

Warped reality landscape6/27/2023 ![]() ![]() The only one on the list I question is Phoenix, as the Phoenix Force has shown the ability to alter the future to some extent but doesn't seem to actually warp reality in the same way as the others. M, Proteus, The Sentry, and Monarch all seem to be in this category though a writer could easily change this for some of all of them in the event that they got their act together and started using any hidden potential they had. Molecule Man would probably be at the top of the list or just under Franklin, but given his nature as a universal constant I'm not sure if he could be considered a reality warper or just a part of reality itself.īelow those guys is where I would place anyone whose reality warping powers haven't been demonstrated to be universal or global, and I'm not sure that there's any point in trying to rank them as they are all in category where even destroying them utterly isn't enough to actually remove them from reality: they have a habit of just blinking back into existence. It's probable that Matthew Malloy is somewhere near the top of this list as well. ![]() I believe Wanda may be next as her power at its peak affected multiple realities, not just the 616. At peak power I would say it's probably Franklin on top, no contest.

Color sudoku app paint6/27/2023 ![]() “We put a lot of research into our paint color names, knowing they often sway consumers toward one shade or another,” Woelfel says. However, Woelfel and her team try to keep their paint names as universal as possible so they appeal to a wide audience Behr paints are available nationwide at Home Depot. “Colors like Surfboard Yellow and Beachside Drive reference a sunny, oceanside culture, while Vintner is a nod to the lush Napa Valley wine region,” Woelfel says. It’s a gorgeous gray with a magenta undertone, very beautiful in its own right, but its unusual name definitely helps its popularity.”Ĭalifornia-based paint company Behr frequently turns to its landscape to name colors, says Erika Woelfel, Behr’s vice president of color and creative services. “Elephant’s Breath is always a favorite among our fans. “Mizzle,” Cosby explains, “is the word we use in Dorset to describe the weather when it is both misty and drizzling.” Stored on a someday list, the name was eventually matched and attached to a hazy shade of gray green.Īlthough many of Farrow & Ball’s color names pay homage to the past, Cosby says, “We always opt for names that we hope will delight and intrigue the people who pick up our color cards.” In fact, Cosby says, the names become a huge part of the identity of the color and often help with a color’s popularity. An example of the latter is Farrow & Ball’s Mizzle. “Even when we are not working on new colors, if we encounter a great name, it gets filed away for when we are.” Sometimes, she says, the color comes before the name, and sometimes the name comes before the color. Farrow & Ball’s naming process is organic, Cosby says. Cosby travels extensively for work, so she gets lots of name (and color) ideas from the places she visits, but just as important is the inspiration she finds in the landscape and dialect of England’s Dorset County, where the company is based. So instead, that color might be called ‘Vivacious.’ ”Ĭharlotte Cosby, head of creative at Farrow & Ball, says inspiration for their color names comes from all over. Today, however, we want consumers to connect with colors. “In the past, all a name needed to do was describe a color - for example, bright pink. Sue Wadden, director of color marketing for Sherwin-Williams, said that in some cases a color name can be a tiebreaker. “While color descriptions such as ‘light blue’ are helpful to narrow down colors and are quite straightforward, we also look for names that evoke positive associations, experiences, and are inspiring,” Yeo says. Hannah Yeo, Benjamin Moore’s color and design expert, says names play an important role when people are making color selections. ![]() The name, though not entirely descriptive of the color, does conjure the image of a man impeccably dressed in a tailored three-piece suit - an image that aptly matches the richness of the hue. Even on Benjamin Moore’s website, the color is described as a “blackened blue” that “leans toward classic navy.” Why did the company choose a somewhat misleading name? When I answer, “Benjamin Moore’s Gentleman’s Gray,” the questioner inevitably looks perplexed and assumes I have conflated two colors, because there is nothing gray about the shade. Everyone who sees it asks for the color name. Several years ago, I painted a bathroom in my house a rich, smoky blue.

Dunkirk and cplot and haracter6/27/2023 But what makes Dunkirk so fascinating? The movie manages to be frightening without showing blood, wounds, guts and gore. It is also Nolan’s second best film in his entire career (seven years later and no one can touch Inception). ![]() And with the very familiar nonlinear narrative structure from Nolan, Dunkirk is visceral yet emotional portrayal of the horrors of war through the subjective point of view from several men. On the sea covering one day of those events, and up in the air covering just one hour of the evacuation. The beginning (on land) covering one week in 1940. The film’s narrative has three major threads that follow three different periods of time. Farrier (Tom Hardy) will be the last man standing from them. Dawson (Mark Rylance), his son Peter (Tom Glynn-Carney) and his friend George (Barry Keoghan) are just part of the boat fleet crossing the English Channel in order to help with the evacuation, while in in the air there is the support from the 3 Royal Air Force pilots. Dunkirk.Īnd in Nolan’s Dunkirk, the young British soldier Tommy (Fionn Whitehead) is one of the 400,000 other soldiers waiting to be rescued (evacuated) on the beaches of Dunkirk (France) while the Nazis are just around the corner. A thrilling WW2 drama inspired by true events. And 3 years after Interstellar, the maestro is back with another movie. Paul Thomas Anderson, David Fincher and of course Christopher Nolan. ![]() Is there any director that you love and admire so much that you count the months (and the days) leading to the premiere of his latest work? Well, there are few of those on my list.
