![]() This game looks exactly like the one that was installed on your old computer.įreecell Windows XP - Solitaires are great games to train your patience and attention. FreeCell XP will make you feel like you are back in time. You might even remember how the menu looked like back in the day. ![]() To achieve this, you can temporary use the seven row stacks in descending order, alternating between red and black cards, beginning with the kings.įreeCell XP - Do you remember how you discovered Solitaire games? Most probably you did when you got your first computer. Solitaire Windows XP - The object of this Solitaire is to use all the cards in the deck to build up the four suit stacks in ascending order, beginning with the aces. With every new game you’ll improve your skills and see how your score will also go up. But when you complete a sequence of one suit, from King to Ace, you get 100 points. If there are no more moves during the game, just press on the deck in the right bottom corner and new cards will be dealt.Īt the beginning you always have 500 points. At the very end place Ace on Two and the whole suite will disappear from the board. For example, place the Queen of Spades on the King of Spades, or the Five of Hearts on the Six of Hearts. The main aim is to build a sequence of the same suit in correct descending order from King to Ace. Spider Solitaire involves two packs of cards (together 52 cards). If you’re new to this game, it’s better to start from the easiest level to figure out the rules. This game has three levels of difficulty depending on the quantity of suites you use (one, two or four). The rules are really simple and it’ll take you only a few minutes to understand them if you’ve never played Spider-like games before. Many people spent hours playing this game on their old computers. The online game Spider Solitaire Windows XP is a similar version of a legendary and quite popular Solitaire game that comes free with Microsoft Windows XP operating systems. You can’t accidentally lose photos using this app because of this double safety net. ![]() This, of course, moves them to Recently Deleted in Photos, which is another safety net. This is a safety net and you can open the album in the Photos app, view the images and delete them if you really don’t need them. Instead, it creates a Trash (PhotoSweeper) album in the Photos app and places the duplicate images in it. After clicking through a few permission requests necessary to access Photos, it begins scanning the images.Īctually it doesn’t delete photos. When the app is started, you have the option to select a folder to scan or your Photos library. It works well and does the job and it might be all you need, but if you do need more features PhotoSweeper Lite and PhotoSweeper are inexpensive alternatives from the same developer. Search for it in the Mac App Store to install it. Price: Free | By: Gwinno Software | Size: 10 MB | macOS: 10.10 or laterĭuplicate Photo Finder appears to be an older, free version of PhotoSweeper. If you need a duplicate photos cleaner, here is one that does the job. Do you need them all or should you just keep the best and throw away the best? They are not identical, but are almost the same. Photo libraries often contain many similar images. We don’t always delete the other images and so we end up with groups of two, three or four or more photos that are almost identical. Instead of carefully taking one shot and hoping it comes out right, we can now take half a dozen images and see which one is best because it costs nothing. Unlike film photography where you had to pay for developing and printing of photographs, taking them is now free. After that length of time, duplicates can accidentally appear. The number of duplicates tends to increase as photo libraries grow, so if your library is new, it is probably fine, but some people have had photo libraries for 10 years and have tens of thousands of images. Find them and delete them with a free app.ĭuplicate photos can occur for many reasons and enabling or disabling the Photos library on multiple devices like the Mac, iPhone and iPad, syncing photo libraries across devices, moving libraries, editing photos, importing from cameras, adding new devices and so on, can all cause duplicate images. I've only scratched the surface of what all PhotoSweeper can do, but can already testify that it works great and handled over 100,000 files with ease.Are duplicate photos lurking in the Photos library on your Mac? Do you have folders of photos or other images that contain duplicates? Probably. I can't imagine how long this would have taken me to clean up without PhotoSweeper! There were some images that had four duplicate copies. This alone resulted in a 58% reduction in the number of images I have. ![]() You read that correctly, in less than 20 minutes, I downloaded, installed, and scanned my SSD for EXACT duplicates. Within minutes, PhotoSweeper informed me that I had 122,226 images, and 70,955 of those were exact duplicates. I'd duplicate the stars to 10 or 20 if I could. PhotoSweeper was rated very high, AND IT DESERVES THOSE RANKINGS. I finally bit the bullet, consolidated everything into one hard drive (internal SSD), and searched the app store. The fact I had tens of thousands of images to go through, on multiple hard drives, knowing many were duplicates, only made the procrastination easier. After a hard drive failure, and flat out procrastination for years, I decided it's time to clean up the mess. I've taken thousands of digital photos over the years, and have made extra/backup copies just in case. ![]() I would duplicate the stars on PhotoSweeper The coder of this program should receive a nobel prize (maybe the noble prize too)! On my 2017 iMac with 64gb ram the first run took nearly 10 hours running in the background, but I was able to continue WFH while it did its thing. I checked 100 of the duplicates at random and only found 1 photo where I would have kept a different image. ![]() The program nearly always defaulted to the best shot (highest megapixels, and some other AI algorithms). Then using the advanced features that search for identical color balance in the photo. Crisis! First run with PhotoSweeper on basic settings eliminated 40,000 exact duplicates. Now I was at 144,000 photos with up to 4 copies each with unique metadata. Then in 2017 I did it again (dont ask why). After scanning each duplicate has its own metadata and slightly different digital characteristics. Problem #1: some packs had been ordered with duplicate copies from CVS. I had added most of my paper photos to my library by scanning using an HP feeder scanner for standard size photos. I had a specific problem that I needed solved: Identical duplicates with unique metadata that completely fools any less sophisticated programs. ![]() The overseas portion is running just 13% below Minions at the same point and 3% behind Despicable Me 3.

Overall, the marketplace is robust and it’s refreshing to see so many big-ticket pictures across different genres comfortably co-existing. This result is testament to the enduring love for this franchise, the exceptional film they have delivered and the enormous collaboration between Illumination, our Universal teams around the world and our partners in exhibition.” Says Universal Pictures International President of Distribution, Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, “We couldn’t be happier for Chris Meledandri, the filmmakers, cast and crew and our partners at Illumination. The Top 5 openers this weekend were the UK ($12.9M), Mexico ($12.4M), Germany ($4.8M), Spain ($3.6M) and Indonesia ($3.4M). Universal pulled out all the stops on a global marketing campaign that included pop-up stores, music festival appearances and shopping mall takeovers as well as a clever TikTok “Minions In Suits” challenge that went viral over the frame. Gru and the crew set some new milestones internationally with four markets scoring the biggest animation opening weekend of all time (Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Venezuela) and 52 markets setting the best animated launch of the pandemic (see more detail in the breakdowns as they are updated below for all films). 'Barbie' & 'Oppenheimer' Reach Major Milestones, 'Meg 2' Chomps On $142M Global Debut Disney Tops $4B WW For The Year So Far - International Box Office ![]() The character's design stemmed from initial concepts for Darth Vader, who was originally conceived as a rogue bounty hunter. ![]() The character needed to be designed quickly, as Lucas had agreed for him to be featured in the Star Wars Holiday Special later that year. Star Wars creator George Lucas created Boba Fett in his April 1978 screenplay draft of The Empire Strikes Back, basing the character on Sergio Leone's Man with No Name ( Clint Eastwood). His popularity within the Star Wars fanbase has earned him a cult following. The character of Boba Fett quickly became a fan favorite despite his limited presence in the original Star Wars trilogy and is now a widely recognized figure in popular culture. In several Star Wars works, Fett himself is portrayed as a Mandalorian or at least connected to the Mandalorian culture through his armor. This concept later evolved into the Mandalorians, a cultural group with strong warrior traditions, who sport armor and helmets similar to Fett's. Daniel Logan reprised his role as the younger version of Fett in the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars, while Temuera Morrison, who also portrayed Jango in Attack of the Clones, has portrayed an adult Boba in most of his Star Wars appearances since that film, most prominently in the live-action Disney+ series The Mandalorian and its spin-off series The Book of Boba Fett.ĭuring the development of The Empire Strikes Back, Fett was originally conceived as a member of a group of white-armored Imperial " supercommandos" before the idea was scrapped in favor of a solitary bounty hunter. The character also appears in many forms of Star Wars media outside of the films, such as books, comics, television series, and video games, many of which depict him as an antihero rather than a villain, and explore his background, motivations, and morality. The series also reveals that he has another sister named Emerie Karr. The animated series The Bad Batch further reveals Boba to have been born Alpha, and to have a biological twin sister, Omega. Morrison appeared first in Star Wars media playing Jango. Daniel Logan plays a preteen Boba in the prequel film Attack of the Clones (2002), which reveals the character's origins as the genetic clone and adoptive son of Jango Fett, also a famous bounty hunter. While seemingly killed in Return of the Jedi after falling into a sarlacc, he has since appeared in Star Wars media set after the film, confirming his survival within the new canon, portrayed by Temuera Morrison. Notable for his taciturn demeanor and for never removing his helmet, Fett appears in both The Empire Strikes Back (1980), employed by the Galactic Empire, and Return of the Jedi (1983), serving the crime lord Jabba the Hutt. In the original trilogy, the character is a supporting antagonist and was mainly portrayed by Jeremy Bulloch and voiced by Jason Wingreen. First appearing in the Star Wars Holiday Special (1978), where he was voiced by Don Francks, he is an armored bounty hunter featured in both the original and prequel film trilogies. Boba Fett ( / ˌ b oʊ b ə ˈ f ɛ t, ˌ b ɒ-/ BO(H)B-ə FET) is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise. ![]() Tracktion or Waveform has always had some built-in effects (like EQ, reverb, delay, and so on). That said, Waveform is somewhat customizable (if you upgrade to PRO, you can do more customization). How the controls are positioned are part of the workflow, so that’s going to come down to preference. It’s dark themed, which can make it a little easier on the eyes during long studio sessions. Waveform’s graphical user interface is attractive if simple. It feels like software that’s been developed to be software. Because Waveform doesn’t feel like a piece of software trying to emulate hardware. If the workflow isn’t for you, that’s okay, there are other more traditional DAWs on this list you will likely find a lot of utility in. It makes it easy for me to get started, get going, and take my project idea from start to finish quickly. What I like most about the DAW, and what some might find odd, is the workflow. Over the years, I’ve recorded acoustic duos, reggae bands, rock bands, podcasts, audiobooks, and other projects using Waveform. And while some might try to tell you that it’s best for electronic music and EDM (and it is good for that), you can honestly do anything with it. What this means is that Waveform has had plenty of time to mature. At the time, Tracktion software was owned by Mackie. Waveform was originally Tracktion, and Tracktion was a DAW all its own before it became a developer. Waveform Free is one of my personal favorites and is easily one of our top picks for this list.

Binary cross entropy is equal to -1log (likelihood). Binary cross entropy, also referred to as logarithmic loss or log loss, is a metric used to evaluate models by measuring the extent of incorrect labeling of data classes. ![]() Low log loss values equate to high accuracy values. Cross entropy is one out of many possible loss functions (another popular one is SVM hinge loss). In this post, we'll focus on models that assume that classes are mutually exclusive. To perform a Logistic Regression in PyTorch you need 3 things: Labels (targets) encoded as 0 or 1 Sigmoid activation on last layer, so the num of outputs will be 1 Binary Cross Entropy as Loss function. Binary cross entropy (also known as logarithmic loss or log loss) is a model metric that tracks incorrect labeling of the data class by a model, penalizing the model if deviations in probability occur into classifying the labels.

That is our loss for 1 image the image of a dog we showed at the beginning. When we develop a model for probabilistic classification, we aim to map the model's inputs to probabilistic predictions, and we often train our model by incrementally adjusting the model's parameters so that our predictions get closer and closer to ground-truth probabilities. This is the cross-entropy formula that can be used as a loss function for any two probability vectors. CrossEntropyLossLayer CrossEntropyLossLayer. Cross-entropy is commonly used as a loss function for classification problems, but due to historical reasons, most explanations of cross-entropy are based on communication theory which data scientists may not be familiar with. ![]() of Veterans Affairs, please visit their website at va.gov.

An amortized mortgage has equal monthly mortgage payments, so when the term of the mortgage comes to end the mortgage is paid in full. These are numbered in order so that, for example, the last payment you make in the first year of the loan would be payment #12.Ĭhoose if you want your amortization report to show results on either a monthly or annual basis, then click “View Report” at the top of the page to see the full amortization table.Īre you in the market for a home loan?

Amortization Schedule Calculator OverviewĪn amortization schedule for a mortgage helps a borrower see how the monthly mortgage payments that they make are applied to their principal balance of the mortgage, and how much is applied toward the interest paid on the mortgage. If you have been paying on your mortgage for some time and would like to see the effect of making additional payments going forward, use the “Start with payment” box to indicate when you would start paying extra. Note that you can choose to see the effects of a single extra payment or paying extra on a monthly or annual basis.

Making additional payments will accelerate the rate at which you pay down mortgage principle, shortening the term of the loan and reducing the interest you have to pay. It also tells you how much accumulated interest you will have paid at any point in the loan, and how much interest you can expect to end up paying over the life of the mortgage. But as the loan is gradually paid off, the monthly interest charges decline and more of each payment goes toward paying off principle, so that in the latter years of the loan, you’re paying off principle at a rapid rate.Īn amortization schedule allows you to see how this unfolds. Amortization Schedule Calculator OverviewĪ mortgage amortization schedule lets a borrower see how their monthly payments gradually reduce the balance owed on their mortgage over time, and how much of their monthly payments go toward mortgage principle.īecause interest charges are based on your outstanding balance, in the early years of a 30-year mortgage most of your monthly payment goes toward interest and relatively little goes toward paying down principle. ![]() Only the lowest-tuned actually is in contact with the upper edge of this niche. Secondly, a shallow trough or niche ( sawari) is carved across the fingerboard just below the nut. First, a nut/bridge ( kami-goma) made from rolled-up brass runs partially across this boundary so that the two higher-pitched strings pass over it, but not the third string. At the point where the neck becomes the pegbox a subtle but important pair of features are in place that contribute to the desired sound of this instrument (see second detail image). A pegbox ( itogura) with three laterally mounted friction tuning pegs ( itomaki) tops the neck. The long, slender, and fretless neck ( sao) is constructed of three joined segments of wood and can be disassembled for ease of transport. The top and bottom openings of this frame are covered with taut membranes ( kawa) of dog or cat skin that are glued to it (see first detail image, in which the backside membrane is shown). The resonator ( do) is a square wood frame about four inches deep constructed from four slightly arched slats of wood (redwood and Chinese quince are favored) joined together. The shamisen is a spike lute, meaning that the neck passes through the walls and interior of the resonator. ![]() Amateurs interested in shamisen can also today find professional teachers with whom to study, and there are even degree programs in shamisen performance at a few universities. Geisha represent a significant portion of the community that studies, performs, and is exposed to shamisen music, especially the kouta genre. In modern Japan geisha performance is one of a few contexts in which traditional shamisen music is heard. Up until the beginning of the Meiji Period (1868 CE) todo were the primary carriers, innovators, and teachers of shamisen music. The cultural brokers who facilitated the transformation of a foreign instrument into a popular vocal accompanying instrument of the artistically vibrant Edo period (1603-1868 CE) were mendicant monks and todo (blind professional musicians organized in guilds specializing in specific genres of music) of 16 th and 17 th century Japan. Utamono genres include the now nearly defunct kumiuta song cycle repertoire, and the hauta (‘beginning’), kouta (‘short’), and nagauta (‘long’) song genres. The shamisen pictured here is of the type called hosozao, which is appropriate for use in lyrical ( utamono) song genres, rather than narrative ( katarimono) ones, and for use in the sankyoku instrumental trio (see separate ensemble entry ‘). Alternately known as samisen (in Kyoto and Osaka) and sangen (when played with koto in jiuta chamber music), and now sometimes spelled syamisen, the shamisen has associated with it a large repertoire of music. The shamisen is a plucked spike-lute chordophone of Japan that has been popular in folk, art, and theatre music since the middle of the 17 th century. ![]() You’ll misunderstand what’s going on if you interpret “screen recording” to mean “always video recording the screen.” That is not what it means.
