Windscribe review: Despite the annoyances, it has the right idea
The first step is always to figure out how easy or hard the VPN is to use. Windscribe and other VPNs are important tools, but you'll never use them if the UI gets in the way. I tested Windscribe's desktop apps on Windows and Mac, its mobile apps on iOS and Android and its Chrome and Firefox browser extensions. To start with, let me say that installing Windscribe is a breeze no matter where you do it. The downloaders and installers handle their own business, only requiring you to grant a few permissions. The apps arrive on your system ready to use out of the box.
How a toilet-themed YouTube series became the biggest thing online
He creates his animation using a computer graphics tool called Source Filmmaker that allows users to create animations in the style of an early video game called Garry's Mod. Garry's Mod was an online world building sandbox (or space to play around in) similar to "Minecraft." "Early YouTube was filled with GMod videos, the exact same way "Minecraft" videos dominate the platform today," Ryan Broderick, a journalist and content creator, noted in his Garbage Day newsletter, adding that Gerasimov's channel veering deeply into "weird internet aesthetics" played into young people's nostalgia for the internet of the early 2010s.
Combination of Human Ingenuity and Machine Intelligence
I had the opportunity of being on a panel discussing Enterprise Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence at a IBM event, Machine Learning Everywhere: Build Your Ladder to AI in NYC, which will broadcast tomorrow. The event had IBM executives, distinguished panelists and the one and only, Garry Kasparov. As you may know, Garry was a Master Chess Champion for many years to later be defeated by Deep Blue in 1997. He has been somewhat "disrupted" by A.I. and machine learning before we even knew what it was, and now he is an evangelist of harnessing the power of machine intelligence and human creativity to solve great problems. As a reminder, it might be interesting for you to reflect on how intelligent Garry was in the game of chess, of being able to process many moves ahead in anticipation of the right strategy as it related to chess.
Fly Through a Huge Volcanic Cave With These Stunning 3-D Scans
W. Brent Garry sets up his laser scanner to complete the first 3-D map of Indian Tunnel, a lava tube in Craters of the Moon National Monument in Idaho. When humans at last reach the surface of Mars, one of the first things they may need to do is dive beneath it. That's why a team of NASA researchers gathered in August at Craters of the Moon National Monument in Idaho: The intrepid explorers created the first complete three-dimensional scan of Indian Tunnel, one of the largest and most accessible lava tubes at the monument. Researchers are mapping lava tubes at the Craters of the Moon National Monument in Idaho in hopes that their findings might help the explorers use lava tubes on the red planet for shelter. Their work not only helps us better understand our planet's geologic past, but it will also allow scientists to learn more about potential subterranean living on other worlds.
Large-Scale Cross-Game Player Behavior Analysis on Steam

Behavioral game analytics has predominantly been confined to work on single games, which means that the cross-game applicability of current knowledge remains largely unknown. Here four experiments are presented focusing on the relationship between game ownership, time invested in playing games, and the players themselves, across more than 3000 games distributed by the Steam platform and over 6 million players, covering a total playtime of over 5 billion hours. Experiments are targeted at uncovering high-level patterns in the behavior of players focusing on playtime, using frequent itemset mining on game ownership, cluster analysis to develop playtime-dependent player profiles, correlation between user game rankings and, review scores, playtime and game ownership, as well as cluster analysis on Steam games. Within the context of playtime, the analyses presented provide unique insights into the behavior of game players as they occur across games, for example in how players distribute their time across games.
