Even the smallest, cheapest iPhone 12 mini gets (almost) all the features from last year’s Pro models, and the iPhone 12 Pro shows what can be achieved when you marry ultra-powerful computers with cameras. But unfortunately, it’s still just a “phone,” which means that many professional photographers will never even consider it. “Regardless of the image quality,” professional fashion photographer Diane Betties told Lifewire via email, “clients do not understand when you shoot a job, or even just portraits, on a phone....
Why Convert Text to Curves? A designer may choose to convert text to curves to alter the shape of specific characters in a logo, newsletter nameplate or other decorative text to achieve certain artistic effects. It might be prudent to convert text to curves when sharing files with others who may not have the same fonts you have or when font embedding is not an option. Other reasons to convert include:...

Still, when times are tough, many believe it’s a luxury that may not be affordable. However, when you consider the cost of taking the family out to dinner and a night at the movies, buying a home theater system may be an affordable family entertainment solution during economic doldrums. An LED TV Isn’t a Different Type of TV There’s a lot of hype and confusion surrounding LED televisions....
TikTok was granted a two-week reprieve by the U.S. government last week to find an American buyer for the Chinese-based app, further extending its deadline to the ban Trump initially gave months ago. Even though there was talk of a ban, it’s almost as if the administration has all but forgotten about the viral app. However, Trump’s executive order did bring about awareness of TikTok’s many security issues and the more significant issue of how Americans handle their own privacy....
As with a search for “horse,” Google may assume that you want to find a place to go horse riding near you and show a map of nearby stables. Stemming Words Google automatically searches for variations of the words you use, so when you search for horse riding, you’re also searching for "ride" and “horses.” Similarly, if you had results you wanted to exclude, you could use a minus sign, so horse -breeding would yield results of horse without the word breeding on the page....

According to Wired, the new lawsuit results from users “Cruzzcontrol” and “CreatineOverdose,” targeting Twitch streamers in the Black, LGBTQIA+, and transgender communities by using racist, homophobic, sexist, and transphobic content last month. Twitch said the harassment is a violation of its terms of service. The lawsuit alleges the two users constantly created multiple new accounts after being banned to continue their “hate raids,” when groups of malicious users use bot accounts to fill a streamer’s chat with abuse....
According to a Monday tweet from Twitter product designer Dominic Camozzi, the possible feature is in its early stages and would be meant to help “control unwanted attention.” Camozzi said the feature would allow you to untag yourself from a Tweet or conversation you don’t want to be involved in, as well as turn off your mentions for a specific period, such as one day or one week. “Just pick ‘Unmention yourself from this conversation’ from the more info menu and the link to your profile will be removed,” he wrote....

If you have another heat source, like a wood-burning stove, you’re better off using that until the power comes back on. And if the situation is really dire enough that you have to use your car inverter to run heaters in your home, you’re probably going to be better off using that gas to get yourself to an emergency shelter or warming station. Running Home Electronics With a Car Power Inverter Car power inverters are great, but they’re designed to be used when the engine is running....

“Microsoft’s move of unifying apps to the Windows 11 store will make it a go-to store for apps,” said Harriet Chan, co-founder of CocoFinder, in a DM to Lifewire. “One can easily get an app with a single search, instead of launching other platforms and trying hard to find our desired apps.” Upside/Downside In theory, this could do a lot to streamline your desktop. It’s not hard for anyone who uses a Windows 10 computer to end up with a half-dozen or more different storefront apps, whether they’re for gaming, graphics, design, or office work....
This term is really just the popularized name for what is technically called a stop message or stop error. The example here on this page is a BSOD as you might see one in Windows 8 or newer. Earlier versions of Windows had a somewhat less friendly appearance. Fixing a Blue Screen Error That [confusing] text on the Blue Screen of Death will often list any files involved in the crash including any device drivers that may have been at fault and often a short, usually cryptic, description of what to do about the problem....
What Is a DAT File? A file with the DAT file extension is usually a generic data file that stores information specific to the application it refers to. Sometimes you’ll find them by themselves, but often they’re with other configuration files like DLL files. No specific program is responsible for creating or using every type of DAT file. A wide variety of applications use them as references to certain operations in their respective program....
What Is a Viewfinder? A digital camera viewfinder is the part of the camera that is used to frame and setup a photograph. It is usually located on the back of the camera, and can be either an optical viewfinder or a digital, or electronic viewfinder (EVF).

What Does Hidden Network Mean? A hidden network is what it sounds like: A network hidden from usual detection. Once popular amongst security-savvy users, it was seen as a good way of ensuring nefarious sources could not see your network before trying to access it. It’s like having a secret doorway to your home, not on display to others. However, in recent times, hiding your network has fallen out of favor as many tools are available to help users spot hidden networks....
Structure of the Windows Registry The Windows Registry is structured in a hierarchy, with the topmost registry keys referred to as registry hives. These have special rules attached to them, but they’re registry keys in every other sense. The term “registry entry” can refer to any individual part of the Windows Registry (like a hive or value), but usually, it’s synonymous with a registry key. Items in the registry are structured in this way: Let’s look at a specific example from Registry Editor to help explain how registry keys work: As you can see, the registry path shown above is divided into three sections, each separated by a backslash:...
Because an ad hoc connection doesn’t need an existing infrastructure to sustain the network, it’s decentralized and is considered a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. Instead of using a central managing device (such as a router) where the network’s data constantly flows in and out before and after reaching the child devices (such as phones and computers), every node that makes up the ad hoc network forwards data evenly throughout the entire structure....
Programs such as Adobe InDesign, Microsoft Publisher, QuarkXPress, and Scribus are examples of desktop publishing software. Professional graphic designers and commercial printing technicians use some of these, whereas office workers, teachers, students, small-business owners, and non-designers use others. Their choices depend on capabilities, budget, and personal preference. Among professionals, “desktop publishing software” refers primarily to high-end professional page layout software applications including Adobe InDesign and QuarkXPress. Desktop Publishing Software as a Catch-All Phrase Other applications and utilities often included in the desktop publishing software category are better classified as graphics, web publishing, and presentation apps....
