Apple Watch Series 3
Apple Watch Series 3

The Apple Watch 3 (or Apple Watch Series 3 in case you're being specific) has been supplanted a few times over, most as of late by the Apple Watch 6, and Apple Watch SE - the last of which could be a genuine opponent for it, since they're both spending models.

Be that as it may, the Watch 3 remaining parts at a bargain - which is beyond what we can say for the Apple Watch 4 or even the Apple Watch 5 - and it has been limited vigorously now as well.

Apple Watch Series 3

The Watch 3 is accessible in two structures – one with cell network, and one with just GPS. As the substitution for the Apple Watch 2, this gadget was the banner carrier for wellness and life span, with run and cycle following ready and a water-safe packaging for swimming, in addition to a similar pulse screen on the underside.


And keeping in mind that more current models pack in additional highlights and quicker chipsets, Apple has continued supporting the Apple Watch 3 with programming refreshes, most as of late watchOS 7, which adds rest following, new exercises, and significantly more.

 

Apple Watch Series 3

It's likewise liable to get significantly less expensive during bargains seasons like the impending Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Truth be told, we're hoping to see a ton of Apple Watch Black Friday bargains this year. Despite the fact that it additionally now has more rivalry, as verified above, so is it still worth your cash?

Update: Apple has begun turning out watchOS 7, and the Apple Watch 3 is among the models that can get it. Additionally, the organization has likewise dispatched the Apple Watch 6 and the Apple Watch SE.

It's important additionally that while Apple has ended the Apple Watch 4 and 5, you can in any case get the Apple Watch 3 direct from the organization, so it's not difficult to get hold of.


Apple Watch Series 3


Do we need LTE?
-Connects pretty well.
-Additional expense to stream your information from the Watch

The greatest update the Apple Watch 3 brought was its own cell association inside, so it can work freely of your telephone.

Does that mean you can get one without claiming an iPhone? Tragically not… not by far. Actually it implies that you can get calls and some application notices when your telephone is at home, yet in any case it's absolutely subject to your handset.

As far as warnings, if the application you need to utilize hasn't been moved up to work in 'independent mode' (as in, needn't bother with a telephone association with work) at that point you will not get updates and notices regardless of whether the LTE association is empowered.

The capacity to interface with a cell network is fine, however doesn't feel like the most essential element to add in - albeit a few group have just detailed it's saved their life. 

The call quality from a particularly little gadget is actually rather great – we directed a telephone talk with somebody while running, and both the voice quality out of the speaker and the affectability of the receiver were brilliant.

It implied we could run essentially typically and still hold a discussion without holding the Watch 3 to our head. Truth be told, it was so noisy you'll have to move rapidly to stop individuals tuning in.

It's less helpful when driving - the surrounding commotion makes it harder to hear what's being said - however it'll do when there's no other option and save you from illicitly snatching your telephone. We would address whether you truly need the usefulness – not least since you need to pay extra for it.

It's especially bothering that you need to spend between $5-$10 every month to have your information - that you're now paying for - siphoned to your gadget.

On the off chance that adding information to the Watch was free and just normally reached out to the wrist, it would be fine, however the additional expense makes it difficult to suggest the LTE form consequently.

Apple Watch Series 3

50 million melodies on the wrist

One other redesign is the expansion of music streaming, something that was declared at dispatch of the Apple Watch 3 yet inquisitively wasn't there at dispatch.

This element - on the off chance that you've paid all the cash to have the LTE-empowered variation of the Watch 3 and are paying out additional money every month to have the information - is entirely a decent option.

You're getting two things with the new Apple Music streaming abilities: Apple Music straightforwardly, and Beats Radio. These are both gotten to the most basically through Siri - you can tap through the Watch to arrive, however it's fiddly.

The most straightforward route is to ask Siri in a hurry to play the sort of music you need - regardless of whether that is by classification, a playlist you've just made however not synchronized, or simply a specific melody.

It's not awesome - particularly when outside and strolling or running - however when it works it's a fantasy, a modern situation where you order practically any melody on the planet through a visit with your wrist.

You certainly should be installed in the Apple Music framework for everything to fall into place well - you can't peruse playlists on the wrist, for instance, and simply requesting that Siri 'Play some running music' brings about some odd decisions. Notwithstanding, a running playlist you've just made can be gotten to in a second.

All things considered, we say in a second... dreadfully regularly Siri would have an issue interfacing and would advise us to 'Hang on... I'll tap you when I'm prepared'. And afterward no interface for a long time, compelling a retry.

The entire Apple Music streaming arrangement is splendid when it works, when you request some music you'll appreciate and it plays something you appreciate.

It's excessively glitchy now and again to completely feel like you're continually associated with such countless melodies - and you'll by and large have your telephone with you, which is a far superior approach to get to tunes, yet it's a pleasant component and one that will just improve.

Regardless of the Apple Music streaming capacities, we actually can't actually see a valid justification to suggest the LTE variation of the Apple Watch 3, as the thought of not requiring your telephone to go running was dealt with by adding GPS to the watch with the second-age model.

Do we need some other time when we're constantly associated? Isn't an exercise a chance to turn off? Furthermore, would you say you are willing the follow through on the much-bigger cost premium to have the ability to tune in to music or use applications from the telephone?

In light of that you should possibly consider the Apple Watch 3 LTE variation in case you're stressed over not being contactable when out working out, or mysteriously leave your telephone in spots.
 

Design and screen

Practically indistinguishable design to past models
Screen is as yet distinctive and splendid
More modest showcase than the Apple Watch 4

The plan of the Apple Watch has gotten pretty notable, in the way that individuals simply realize you're wearing the iTimepiece. At the point when you see a footballer wearing a Fitbit you'll need to companion to see which model it is, yet with the Apple Watch it's moment acknowledgment.

In contrast to the iPhone, we don't see the need to overhaul the plan that much with a watch, and Apple's done quite well to keep the frame practically indistinguishable given that it's presently pressing in another chipset and cell availability in the two sizes of gadget (38mm and 42mm).

It's done as such by incorporating the recieving wire into the screen, which is a creative method of saving space... albeit the Watch couldn't have remained to be made any chunkier, such is its square, bended plan.

There has been a slight update in the assembling interaction however, as tapping the Digital Crown or the force button feels firmer than on the Apple Watch 2.

This is unpretentious, however it's something we've seen each time we've utilized the Watch 3. Aside from that, the lone key contrast is on the Digital Crown, which currently sports a red dab to connote it's the new model.

The screen is still as clear and brilliant as anyone might think possible 



It's not all that much, however we got an inquiry regarding it when wearing the Watch, showing that individuals are intrigued when another Watch shows up.

It's exquisite and light, and keeping in mind that some have longed for a round showcase, the 1.65-inch show (on the 42mm form) is positively the ideal size and shape for showing more information – and as referenced, Apple has animal constrained acknowledgment of its watch plan into the market.

The actual screen, which utilizes OLED innovation, has consistently been perhaps the most appealing available. It's unmistakable, distinctive and splendid, and we never objected to not having the option to see it when making the rounds.

All things considered, that is not completely evident – the screen turns itself off to protect battery when required, and that implies you need to flick your wrist to see the presentation.

While this is a long way from ideal, Apple has tuned the calculation so much that even a little flick will start up the showcase – and keeping in mind that this isn't generally as exact when running, for instance, it's a great deal, part better compared to we saw with the main adaptation of the Apple Watch.

So, what is our conclusion? The two adaptations of the Apple Watch 3 dazzle - yet the less expensive, non-4G variant of the wearable conveys great incentive for cash and top wellness abilities from the wrist.

Sniper Elite 4 FIX - HELP! THE GAME WON'T START AT ALL!!!!

Sniper Elite 4 - Italia

 

Did you recently buy Sniper Elite 4 Italia? And when you try to start the game and click on the PLAY button, nothing happens? I think, I have a solution that may just work for you. First, have you tried all the other solutions on the Internet? If you have and none of the them worked or helped you play your Sniper Elite 4, then follow my solution.

Temporarily disable your security software (including Windows Defender) while you try verifying the game cache in the Steam client?

1. Right-click on the game's title in the steam client.
2. Select Properties
3. Select Local Files
4. Click 'Verify integrity of game files'

Try running the game before turning security back on again. If the game still doesn't start, then do the following.

Next please try this Windows Update:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows

PLEASE, WAIT FOR THE MICROSOFT WEBSITE TO FULLY LOAD, BECAUSE I MADE THE MISTAKE OF NOT WAITING AND THOUGHT THE GAME MAKER SEND ME TO ONE OF THOSE ADS BLOATED WEBSITE. LOL...

After this, reboot your computer system. Then, start Sniper Elite 4. It might take a minute or two for your game to start. So, give it a plenty of time before you decide that Sniper Elite 4 WON'T start. My Sniper Elite 4 took about 30 seconds before it started.

GOOD LUCK!!! :)

Google - The Driverless POD car

Google Driverless POD car
Google Driverless POD car

Driverless car is most definitely very interesting and neat, but there are so many downsides to this.

First, this whole driverless car in my opinion totally goes against the American way of life. Americans have serious love affair with cars and taking them out of it clearly would be seen as a threat against their way of life. Huge part of people life is spent driving to and from places and homes.

Second, when it comes to safety, no matter what technologies are used to make the Google driverless pod car or any driverless car drive on its own there is always HUGE RISK factors to consider. Realize these cars are controlled by COMPUTER PROGRAM and how many times a day do you run into problems with your computer. Computer programs can fail so many ways even simple as interference from a signal and these days we have too many signals everywhere. Not only that. What about hackers? I am sure we once or twice came in contact with these people in our life. I would be surprised if you didn't. Lately, I am sure you heard of hackers attacking and taking control of latest cars that are outfitted with computer systems for convenience. And then, sometimes electronics can fail for weird reasons. For instance, few years ago, a lady driving on a highway with her cruise control enabled lost control of her car. She simply couldn't get her car to slow down. They believe it was because of her cruise control malfunctioning. What if parked driverless car decides to take of on its own without you inside. After all it is controlled by a computer program. It doesn't know any better....LOL

Third, I don't care what anyone says about these cars, but it is not PRACTICAL. Would you trust this car to take your kids to school all on its own? You mind as well put a stranger in the car with your kids. Plus, think of all the job loses when and if they implement these new technologies into latest cars - taxi drivers, delivery people, truck drivers, school bus drivers, bus drivers, etc will all loose their jobs. You know that won't go well with people especially unions.

So, these cars are neat and interesting, but I wouldn't be expected to find them in 50 or 100 years at your local dealership for above mentioned reasons.

Latest FireFox 39.0 LEAKS memory

latest firefox
FireFox

I don't know about you, but the latest Firefox is not working like the previous versions use too. I am running Firefox 39.0 on Windows 7 and it crashed on me few times. If not, it crawls down or completely blacks out so much that I find myself having to restart FireFox every 15 minutes. Well, I found out that it is LEAKING MEMORY really really really really reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllY BAD. It leaks memory when running idle without going to any website for GOD SAKE. So, I went online for solution and many people have said that they are not having any problem. And then, there are those who are having problem just like me. It turns out that this memory leak has something to do with FireFox Addons.
 
 So, I disabled all the addons on my FireFox. It has helped a lot, but it still crashes or blacks out only that it takes longer.

When I run Firefox 39.0 with all the addons enabled, its crashes with memory at somewhere 1.5GB. And without any addons enabled, it crashes with memory at somewhere 500MB.

What is going on FireFox? Oh well, I guess good things can't last forever.

How to fix No Sound in Windows 7 Home Premium Edition?


Windows 7 Home Premium Edition No Sound Fix
Windows 7 Home Premium Edition No Sound Fix
Before I give you my solution to Windows 7 Home Premium Edition No Sound Fix, lets make sure we are on the same page.

My computer system is Compaq Presario SR1817CL Desktop PC. For audio output, I have AC'97.

When I first installed my Windows 7, everything went well except for the sound. I went all over the Internet in search of fixes and there are plenty of them with different approaches and techniques. Being new to Windows 7 for the first time, I tried my best to follow their instructions and steps but nothing helped. In the process I may have screwed up my Windows 7 installation. However, all along there was a very simple solution to my sound problem.

After messing around with Windows 7 for about 2 hours, I learned that you CAN'T trust what Windows 7 says that it did or is doing. You should always try to enable or disable a process or function to see if the system is STILL having problem. What do I mean by that? Well, since my system was having sound problem, I saw the typical signs.

no-sound-in-windows-7-fix icon
no-sound-in-windows-7-fix icon
System message: No Sound Device Installed

Windows 7 itself searched online for sound driver for my AC'97 output and it kept reporting that it can't find any driver. I tried to look for sound driver for my computer on the manufacturer website myself and still can't install it. So, I ended up shifting through more websites and then I came upon a piece of information on Windows 7. That is even if your system says no sound driver found or can't update driver, try enabling and disabling the component and then try updating for the driver.

So, this is what I did. I opened my control panel-->device manager. There in the tree view window look for device in the list with yellow warning triangle. Yours might be under OTHERS or Sound, Video and Game controller category. Right click on it. In the popup menu first click on DISABLE and then ENABLE. At this point, Window 7 might start to automatically search and download driver. If not, click on the UPDATE DRIVER SOFTWARE option. Then, another window might open asking if you want to yourself search or the system search online for driver. Just have the system search for the driver. At this point, it should successfully download and install the sound driver and you don't even have to reboot your computer system. For me as soon as it got done installing the driver, my speaker icon red X disappeared. I HAVE SOUND NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

This is what I did and it worked for me and I hope it does for you too. Thanks for visiting my blog.

Cheers!!!!!!!

How to install VitrualBox Guest Addition (VBoxGuestAdditions.iso) on Linux (Ubuntu)?

Honestly, I have to say that I never ever spent this long trying to install a simple ISO file before. I went through so many self-help forums and websites still couldn't get the Guest Addition installed, but there is obviously a simple solution, which I overlooked. The reason I wanted to install guest addition to my VirtualBox was because my virtual machine wouldn't go fullscreen but acted like it was only 1078x768 or something.

Here are the steps in installing Virtual guest addition (VBoxGuestAdditions.iso) on Linux (Ubuntu). I am using VirtualBox 4.3.10 for Linux.

  1. Before you begin, you must have already created a virtual machine using an operating system of your choice as shown below. I installed Linux Elementary OS.
    Snapshot of Virtual Machine
    Snapshot of Virtual Machine
  2. Start your virtual machine(VM) by clicking on the start button. Once it is up and running click on the Devices pull down menu on your VM. In the bottom of that pull down menu, you will see an option "Insert Guest Additions CD Image..." Click on it.                                                                 
  3. At this point, VM will either tell you that you don't have Guest Additions Image and if you want to download it now. Just go ahead and click on the download button, but if you still have problem, then you need to download Guest Additions ISO image yourself. Then, follow this step. If everything went well you probably won't see anything or even a confirmation saying that Guest Additions is installed. What that means is that it didn't install guest addition yet but you have only mounted the ISO file. Now, if you were like me who ran into "Can't mount Guest Additions Image," then you probably already have Guest Addition Image opened or linked to your VM. Then, you should move on to the next step, but make sure VBoxGuestAdditions.iso is linked to your VM by going to VM->Settings->Storage->Store Tree Listbox. Another way to verify that you have successfully mounted your Guest Additions ISO file to your virtual machine is by opening the VM folder and file explorer like dolphin. Once it is opened, you should see VBoxGuestAdditions.iso listed on the left hand side. Don't close the dolphin file and folder explorer yet. Leave it open for you will be using it in the next step.
  4. Now, click on the VBoxGuestAdditions.iso mounted image listed in the left-hand side in the Dolphin files and folders explorer in your VM. When you do that, on the right-hand side Dolphin will display all the files and folders within VBoxGuestAdditions.iso. You will see bunch of .exe files and linux related files. If you are like me running Linux on your VM, then you should look for VBoxLinuxAdditions.run in the list.
  5. Now, VBoxLinuxAdditions.run is the file you need to run to install Guest Additions ISO image for your VM. To run the file, first you need to find its absolute path to the file. So, right click on the file and click on properties. Just copy the direct path shown on that popup window. Then, open a terminal window. There type in the following after the prompt sudo ./your-direct-path-to-the-file/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run. Then, hit enter. At this point, it will ask you to enter the password. After that, it will run through the installation.
  6. After installing VBoxGuestAdditions.iso, you will need to shutdown and restart your VM for Guest Additions to be applied to your VM. That's all. Now you should see your VM fullscreen.
