![]() ![]() I don't understand why there is so much negativity in tech forums, or why people feel so attacked when so-and-so company is criticized. Plus, on a personal level, if you refrain from using a potentially great product out of spite, at the end of the day it's your loss. There's a lot of good stuff on each OS, and a lot each of them can learn from the others, and blindly defending WP or Android or iOS actually hinders their evolution in the long run, IMO. I use Android phones and WP, plus iPads, and I feel that this variety helps me keep an open mind. Reading the threads and comments I've noticed there's a lot of ill feelings towards other OS's, especially Android. It hogs system resources and crashes often, and doesn't properly utilize faster processors and more memory. Android seriously reminds of me older versions of Windows, like 95/98/ME. I personally find WP to be a much better product. In other words, it's nothing bad but nothing great either. I don't mind iOS and I use iPads sometimes but it's very overrated. IOS has the stability and the apps, Android has the flexibility and the apps, WP has the stability, flexibility, and many, but not all, of the apps, plus a better UI than iOS and Android. I hate ads and hate their business practices. Plus their whole business model is based on ads and they even go as far as scanning your e-mails to target ads at you. I don't like how they shove their services down your throat and they require Gmail and/or Google+ to access other services instead of just an ID like Microsoft and Apple does, plus their lack of development for the WP platform to gain a competitive advantage. I agree with others with the dislike of Google as a company. the tradeoffs of WP work the best for me. So to me they arn't really inferior products or WP being superior. I was gonna return it to give Android a go, but then couldnt help it when the 930 was right there! :D There are a few things I miss from having Android (or even iOS), but at the same time I realize that for everything I'd gain, I would lose something elsewhere. I was very close to buy a Sony Xperia Z2, the only reason I probably didnt give it a whirl was cos I had already ordered the 930 and it was sitting in a box in front of me. It's about what people need, not what I need/like :D For my fiancee then again we got a Lumia 1020 just recently. A female friend has been asking about a new phone recently and we basically got to two options, an iPhone 4S or Nexus 5. I just got my dad an iPad Air while I got my mom an Acer Iconia W4. I realize that they have their strenghts too, though, and if friends/family ask me to help them get a device, I won't blindly suggest them Windows-products, despite being all about Windows-ecosystem personally.

![]() ![]() They aren’t Photoshop layers by the way, but still very cool with features I wish LR’s local adjustments had. Like the way they implement local corrections as layers. They have several tools that I wish Lightroom had. I think it’s one of the best and smoothest raw processors on the market next to Lightroom. I’m even working on a course on it for early 2020. ![]() Those tabloid-like communities are the worst of the worst in photography, and I hope you never listen to them. It’s those tabloid-like websites I mentioned above that constantly bombard you (and the venom-spewing commenters in them) that try to make anyone that likes Lightroom feel like crap all the time by only posting two words to any Lightroom article… “Capture One”. I’m actually trying to make those that are on the Adobe $9.99 plan feel better about what they have. Now, first and foremost… I’m not trying to make any Capture One user feel bad about their software. Imagine the click bait headlines now “Adobe does nothing for photographers!” or “Has Adobe abandoned photographers?” or even better “Is Lightroom Dead?”. I can only imagine the venom that the old Peta-Stoppers websites would be spewing. If Adobe had waited a full year to add 8 “things” to Lightroom and charged you $159 dollars for the upgrade, the photography community would freakin’ be on fire! Most likely following the industry by numbering the software based on the year.Īs I looked at the list of new features, I thought to myself “How are people not hating on this like they do when Adobe comes out with an update?”. Their last update was one year ago (Capture One 12). Here’s a random thought on this Wednesday as I opened up my email and saw a full version upgrade for Capture One. ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s legitimately tough to decide which two characters to take with me on each mission because I want to hear how they’ll interact. ![]() Wrex, Liara, Tali, and Garrus’ personalities come through strongly in their voice acting and dialogue, like when Garrus needs to be talked down from his shoot-the-hostages style of law enforcement. To be fair, there’s nothing terribly wrong with your human crewmates, Kaiden and Ashley – they just pale in comparison to the four aliens who’ve earned their reputation as some of the best companions in RPG history. The story of Commander Shepard and the crew of the Normandy working to stop the rogue Specter Saren from jumpstarting an ancient cycle of galactic genocide hasn’t missed a step in the past 14 years, and neither have its unforgettable alien companion characters. (The new photo mode is a nice addition, though I don’t know if the original Mass Effect – even after its 4K upgrade – is a good-enough looking game to inspire a lot of photographers who could just as easily be practicing their craft in a game that originated in this decade.) However, the nice thing about aliens is that they’re immune to the uncanny valley effect because for all we know that’s how their faces are supposed to look – so they mostly look excellent. ![]() It’s not terrible but it definitely stands out next to current games. Sometimes those eyes have an uncomfortable, unblinking gaze. In contrast to their detailed and well-lit skin, a lot of human characters look like their faces are paralyzed between their upper lip and their eyes. Its biggest weakness – visually – is its facial animations, which are hard to ignore considering how much you see of them. (I played on Xbox Series X.) Environments are a tad on the sparse side when it comes to how spread out everything is, but textures are sharp and detailed and the lighting effects look respectably modern. In general, Mass Effect looks good at 4K. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Left alone as an unknown character, you’ll have to seek for the reasons why you were left in this godforsaken and unforgiving world alone without any help.

In order to survive, you’ll have to get familiar with the environment, gather up the resources such as different materials to craft different items and tools, build a base, build an oxygen making and storing unit, use different weapons to secure yourself from all the hazards of the sea and explore to the limits.

![]() ![]() Given the well-documented association between higher maternal HIV viral load and higher likelihood of infant HIV diagnosis, understanding the role of empathy and partner empathy - within the medical, social, economic, and cultural setting of rural Mozambique – on retention in care, adherence to treatment, and maternal-to-child transmission among PLWH is essential to decreasing HIV/AIDS-related morbidity and mortality in Mozambique and globally. In Zambézia Province, Mozambique, HIV prevalence is estimated to be 15% within the general population, with higher estimated rates in pregnant women. Registered May 11, 2017.Īs of 2017, there were 36.9 million people living with HIV (PLWH) globally, 19.6 million of whom lived within Eastern and Southern sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). This study is within the context of the HoPS+ trial, registered at as number NCT03149237. Furthermore, this scale can be adapted for other sub-Saharan African populations, which will allow researchers to better assess HIV-related intervention efficacy. This scale will allow us to assess the interplay between empathy and other psychometric constructs (stigma, social support, etc.) in the HoPS+ trial and how each relates to retention in HIV, adherence to treatment, and prevention of maternal to child HIV transmission. This two-subscale, 13-item version of the IRI measures cognitive and affective empathy in HoPS+ trial participants and adults while accounting for the interdependent nature of empathy within partner dyads. More educated participants had higher affective empathy ( p: 0.017) and depressed participants had higher cognitive empathy ( p: < 0.001). We observed higher cognitive ( p: 0.012) and affective ( p: 0.049) empathy among males and higher cognitive ( p: 0.031) and affective ( p: 0.030) empathy among younger participants. The dyadic CFA found acceptable model fit and metric invariance across partners (Comparative Fit Index (CFI) = 0.914, Tucker Lewis Index = 0.904, Root Mean Squared Error of Approximation = 0.056, ΔCFI = 0.011). We found two subscales: 1) a seven-item cognitive empathy subscale (Cronbach’s alpha 0.78) and 2) a six-item affective empathy subscale (Cronbach’s alpha 0.73). Finally, we assessed the relationship between scores on our final scale and basic demographic characteristics (sex, age, education, and depression) using t-tests. Because empathy is interdependent among couples, we validated the results of the exploratory factor analysis using a dyadic confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with dyadic measurement invariance testing. Using baseline data from 1332 HoPS+ trial participants (666 couples), an exploratory factor analysis assessed culturally relevant questions from the IRI. We adapted the Interpersonal Reactivity Index (IRI) – an empathy scale – among seroconcordant expectant couples with HIV in the Homens para Saúde Mais (HoPS+) trial – a cluster randomized controlled trial assessing couple-based versus individual treatment on viral suppression – in Zambézia Province, Mozambique. The ability to understand another’s emotions and act appropriately, empathy, is an important mediator of relationship function and health intervention fidelity. ![]() |
