When my mouse is outside of that window, it is the black Mac mouse cursor. By default, it runs inside a window like this. How easy is switching between Mac and Windows using Parallels Desktop? You don’t even notice it. Switch Conveniently between Mac and Windows They have obviously worked hard to optimize their software for Windows, as it is incredibly responsive. My personal take: For those needing access to Windows while using macOS, Parallels Desktop is a godsend. I’ll explain how that’s done in the next section. Moving from Windows to Mac and back again is fast and seamless. Once installed, Windows feels snappy and responsive. I started up Parallels Desktop, inserted my USB stick, and Windows was installed without fuss. The price was the same as downloading from Microsoft: $179 Aussie dollars. In my case, I purchased a shrink-wrapped version of Windows 10 Home from a store. Transferring a previously-installed version of Windows is the least-recommended option, as it can lead to licensing issues or driver problems. Transfer Windows from your PC or Bootcamp.Purchase it from a store and install from a USB stick.Purchase it directly from Microsoft and download it.Parallels provides the virtual machine, you need to supply Microsoft Windows. Writers can create documentation and reviews about Windows software.Web developers can test their websites on a variety of Windows browsers.Developers can test their software on Windows and other operating systems.You may need to run Windows on your Mac for a variety of reasons. ![]() Run Windows on Your Mac Without Rebooting If you need regular access to Windows apps, Parallel’s implementation is superb. My personal take: Virtualization technology provides a convenient way of accessing non-Mac software while using macOS. Virtualization is an excellent alternative. That’s very convenient if you need non-Mac software.Ī virtual machine will run slower than your real computer, but Parallels has worked hard to optimize performance. But why run a slower virtual machine when you can install Windows on your actual computer using Bootcamp? Because having to restart your machine to change operating systems is slow, inconvenient, and incredibly frustrating. On that virtual computer, you can run any operating system you like, including Windows, and any software that runs on that operating system. Parallels Desktop is virtualization software - it emulates a new computer in software. Turn Your Mac Into Several Computers with Virtualization In each subsection, I’ll first explore what the app offers and then share my personal take. Since Parallels Desktop is all about running Windows apps (and more) on your Mac, I’m going to list all its features by putting them into the following five sections. ![]() Read on for the details! Detailed Review of Parallels Desktop for Mac ![]() ![]() In this Parallels Desktop review, I’ll share what I like and dislike about Parallels Desktop. This review reflects my use of both versions. The new version was released, so I immediately upgraded. For the last week, I’ve been putting it through its paces, installing Windows 10 (purchased just for this review) and several other operating systems, and trying just about every feature in the program. I was provided a review license and installed an earlier version on my iMac. See the Alternatives section of this Parallels Desktop review. So I found myself using a combination of dual boot, virtualization (using VMware and VirtualBox) and Wine. I enjoyed the change, but still needed certain Windows apps on a regular basis. After using Microsoft Windows for over a decade, I made a deliberate move away from the operating system in 2003.
![]() Some of this non-coding DNA is non-functional junk DNA, such as pseudogenes, but there is no firm consensus on the total amount of junk DNA. Introns make up a large percentage of non-coding DNA. It also includes promoters and their associated gene-regulatory elements, DNA playing structural and replicatory roles, such as scaffolding regions, telomeres, centromeres, and origins of replication, plus large numbers of transposable elements, inserted viral DNA, non-functional pseudogenes and simple, highly repetitive sequences. The latter is a diverse category that includes DNA coding for non-translated RNA, such as that for ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA, ribozymes, small nuclear RNAs, and several types of regulatory RNAs. Human genomes include both protein-coding DNA sequences and various types of DNA that does not encode proteins. These are usually treated separately as the nuclear genome and the mitochondrial genome. The human genome is a complete set of nucleic acid sequences for humans, encoded as DNA within the 23 chromosome pairs in cell nuclei and in a small DNA molecule found within individual mitochondria. The mitochondrial genome is shown to scale at bottom left. Chromosomal changes during the cell cycle are displayed at top center.

Fireproofing: Red Diamond is impervious to fire.When fused with Pink Diamond, they form an unnamed fusion.When fused with Blue Diamond, they form Orchid Diamond.When fused with Jasper, they form Ephesite.Red Diamond possesses standard Gem abilities, bubbling, shapeshifting, fusion, regeneration, agelessness, and superhuman strength/durability. She feels like if she speaks out the other Diamonds will turn against her since they hold Steven in a pedestal it's apparently all about Steven, despite being just an Earth child who knows nothing about governing an empire. Steven gets treated like the "Diamond of Diamonds," given the authority to command even White Diamond, when, according to the archives, they wouldn't even let Pink Diamond have her own planet for eons. Red Diamond now finds everything on Homeworld chaotic, nonchalant and unstructured, even though she is glad that Gems are happier. She's been seeing her therapist about it. Īs of the dawn of Era 4, Red Diamond was happy at first but now not so much: she lost all her planets and her Pearls have been off doing whatever they want. ![]() Now, she understands she will never replace Pink Diamond, so as the other Diamonds. Īside from that, she's a very kind and curious ruler, only acting stern, and in the thousands of years since she's come into power she has never shattered a Gem or had one shattered. She is a stern ruler, though she cares for all gems no matter their status in her court. She's described as being a lot stronger than Blue Diamond and Yellow Diamond, as well as her and Yellow not liking one another. She's been rushing and colonizing planets so she was a bit unorganized. Red Diamond may be fairly new but she’s striving to be her own Diamond, rather than Pink Diamond's replacement. Under her dress, she wears knee high red boots and dark red pants. She has a dark maroon waistband that connects to a hip-fitting, floor-length maroon gradient dress. She has loose-fitting rounded sleeves with wrist-fitting dark maroon bracers. She has a maroon V-neck shawl-like top with red-pink layered underneath. Her current outfit is almost the exact same as her previous design. She has a dark maroon waistband that connects to a hip-fitting, floor-length layered maroon dress. She has a translucent pink veil that connects to both of said bracers. She has a thin build, large hands, a thin waist, and moderately wide hips. Red Diamond has red-pink skin, plump lips, and red hair with swirling bangs and the ends tucked into her top.

I wanted to learn the best ways to use it and forcing myself to make it my main computing device was the way to do that. I find that writing this out helps me better evaluate the apps that best fit my workflows.įor the last 7 months, I’ve been using an iPad as my main computer. It’s the time of year that I evaluate the apps that I’ve been using and decide which apps I will use for the coming year. I’ve been launching and hiding apps with keyboard shortcuts for as long as I can remember.Ģ022 is nearly here. Launch your favorite Mac apps with keyboard shortcuts | Keyboard Maestro – ldstephens Launch your favorite Mac apps with keyboard shortcuts using Alfred – ldstephens What Joe is writing about here isn’t new but it’s worth mentioning again for those of you who aren’t using keyboard shortcuts to launch and hide apps on your Mac.īack in 2017, I wrote about how you can do this with either Alfred or Keyboard Maestro. Not everyone knows about this feature, but on your Mac, you can Hide/Unhide an application from the menu bar. Second, hiding/unhiding applications is superior to minimizing/un-minimizing windows or quitting/opening applications. So, the more time you can spend with your hands on the keyboard without switching between input tools, the better. It has more keys (most of the time) and it’s much quicker to move your fingers from key to key than it is to move your entire hand to the mouse and move the cursor. What I’m proposing is this: you should set up keyboard hotkeys that allow you to navigate from app to app.įirst, the keyboard is a superior input device to the mouse. Published first to Medium – October 23, 2023 So, if you’re a Ulysses user, don’t hesitate to give this shortcut a try. This setup has significantly boosted my Ulysses journaling experience, making it quick, efficient and uniform. That’s it! To keep my entries consistent, I created two Keyboard Maestro text snippets:įor Monthly Journal Headings: 2023–10: Monthly Journalįor New Entry Headings: 23 October 2023 02:58 PM Position Selection: It then asks where you’d like to position the text within the sheet, whether at the beginning or end. Format Selection: Next, it allows you to choose the format for your entry, whether it’s plain text, markdown, or HTML.ģ. Input Prompt: It starts by prompting you for the text you want to enter.Ģ. So, here’s a Shortcut I hacked together for the Mac:ġ. I wanted to be able to add journal entries swiftly, without the need to navigate through Ulysses menus. Not only am I using it for my regular writing, but I’ve also adopted it for my Monthly Journal. This post is for Ulysses enthusiasts! I’ve recently found a way to speedup my journaling workflow within Ulysses. ![]() ■ Modulation: A feature commonly found in synthesizers, etc., which allows you to sway (vibrate) the sound during performance.Hello friends. ■ Pitch Bend: A feature commonly found in synthesizers, etc., which allows you to move the pitch of the sound up and down during performance. ■ MIDI Keyboard: A keyboard controller for inputting MIDI information into a PC or other instruments. ■ All Original Songs: All the songs in this game are 100% original. ■ Bend: Not only the keyboard but also the operation of pitch bend and modulation are reproduced. ■ Realistic Approach: It uses a real MIDI keyboard. ![]() ![]() ■ Assist: Auto play is available for those who just want to practice the keyboard. ■ Options: You can choose various options to suit your play style. ■ Multiple Parts: Each song has multiple parts. ■ Step Up: Play songs that match your skill level with nine levels of difficulty. ■ Casual: You can play for about 2 minutes per song. ■ Quick: You can choose a song and score and start playing immediately. ■ Tutorial: Even users who are not familiar with the keyboard can learn how to play through the tutorial. ■ Simple: A classic-style music game that's easy to understand - just play in time with the flowing notes.

That also adds pressure and diminish case life.Īll those are my uneducated opinions based on what I observed during the load tests I had done in the last few weeks. The cases need to be clean from the lubes of sizing during reloading. Subsonic Handgun utilizes tried-and-true XTP bullets that expand reliably at subsonic velocities. Something that I also noticed (in my gun any way) is that some of the powders create a lot of carbon build up and adds to some pressure spikes.Ħ. Hornady Subsonic XTP 9mm Luger 147gr JHP Handgun Ammo - 25 Rounds - Hornady Subsonic Ammunition - designed for accuracy and performance below the speed of sound - now comes in both rifle and handgun loads. Pistol primers, in the other hand,seem to be more gentle with the case since pressure will be noted more earlier than when using a small rifle primer.ĥ. In some cases, it gives you extra velocity at the price of case life shortening.Ĥ. ![]() Rifle primers add significant amount of pressure to the load in a hurry. Using hot loads diminish the case life down to one or two loadings.ģ. T/C G2 Contender can take lots more pressure than pistols.Ģ. ![]() Stock up today!Ĭlick here for answers to Ammo Buying Frequently Asked Questions, and for more information check out our State of the Ammunition Industry page.Ĭheck out some of our other top ammo for sale - 9 mm ammo, 300 Blackout ammo, 6.5 Grendel ammo, 6.5 Creedmoor ammo, 5.56 ammo & 10mm ammo.In a rather short time, I have developed and tested a number of loads in my T/C G2 Contender and I have learned a great deal. Find a variety of subsonic, standard, and rimfire ammo on OpticsPlanet! We offer major brands, muzzle devices, and free shipping on orders $49 or more. There are standard loads as well like subsonic 22, subsonic 223, and subsonic 9mm. Yet, subsonic ammo isn't limited to specialty cartridges. We stock a variety of calibers from subsonic. With a 125-grain bullet, the result is a muzzle velocity of 2,215 feet-per-second with 1,360 foot-pounds of energy. The advantage of subsonic rounds is noise reduction when paired with a suppressed firearm. 300 BLK pairs a large-caliber bullet with a smaller casing. 30-caliber cartridge was based on the popular 5.56mm NATO, a standard military round, but delivers a similar performance to the larger 7.62mm NATO, also a standard military load. What is Subsonic 9mm Ammunition Subsonic ammo is ammunition that does not break the sound barrier, usually around 1100 feet per second, achieved by utilizing a heavier bullet. ![]() One of the most popular and effective loads is 300 blackout subsonic. Yes, subsonic 9mm ammunition can be effective for self-defense. Bullet Type: XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) Hollow Point. Caliber: 9mm Luger (9x19mm Parabellum) 2. Therefore, subsonic loads are designed to strike the right balance of velocity and bullet weight. This subsonic ammunition provides exceptional accuracy and terminal effectiveness, while minimizing noise and reducing recoil for a comfortable shooting experience. To do that, ammo makers design the round to travel at velocities below the speed of sound, which creates another problem altogether. Subsonic bullets reduce sound by eliminating the supersonic crack and muzzle blast. ![]() Subsonic ammo reduces recoil, making it an excellent platform for beginning shooters or those who train and compete regularly. The goal when designing a subsonic round is to reduce the noise of the initial crack caused by expelling gases. Subsonic 9mm ammunition is designed to operate at a speed below the speed of sound, generally between Mach 1 and 343 m/s. The benefit of using subsonic ammo is that it's quieter than standard ammunition and makes suppressed fire even more effective, but going subsonic poses a number of challenges for manufacturers.
