Dot matrix printer

An Epson MX-80, a classic model that remained in use for many years. IBM sold it as their IBM 5152.[1] A dot matrix printer is an impact printer that prints using a fixed number of pins or wires.[2][3] In contrast, inkjet and laser printers technically exhibit dot matrix printing, but they are not considered "dot matrix printers".[4] Impact vs. non-impact is one way in which printers are divided into two classes.[5] Dot-matrix impact printers, "the most common type still sold as of October of 2012,"[6] use "a vertical column of pins which fire" (and thus force contact between the paper and "an ink-soaked ribbon"). History In the 1970s and 1980s, dot matrix impact printers were generally considered the best combination of cost and versatility, and until the 1990s were by far the most common form of printer used with personal and home computers.[7][8] The first impact dot matrix printer was the Centronics 101.[9][10] Introduced in 1970,[11] it led to the design of the parallel electrical interface that wa

Windows 10 version history

Windows 10 is an operating system developed by Microsoft. Microsoft described Windows 10 as an "operating system as a service" that would receive ongoing updates to its features and functionality, augmented with the ability for enterprise environments to receive non-critical updates at a slower pace, or use long-term support milestones that will only receive critical updates, such as security patches, over their five-year lifespan of mainstream support. Terry Myerson, executive vice president of Microsoft's Windows and Devices Group, said that the goal of this model was to reduce fragmentation across the Windows platform.[1] Rings Current Windows 10 versions Version Codename Build Marketing name Release date Support until (and support status by color) Home Pro Enterprise Education LTSC Mobile 1507 Threshold 1 10240 N/A July 29, 2015 Old version, no longer supported: May 9, 2017 Older version, yet still supported: October 14, 2025 N/A 1511 Threshold 2 10586 Novem

Magic: The Gathering Arena

Magic: The Gathering Arena is a free-to-play digital collectible card game developed and published by Wizards of the Coast. The game is a digital adaption of the Magic: The Gathering (MTG) card game, allowing players to gain cards through booster packs, in-game achievements or microtransaction purchases, and build their own decks to challenge other players. It is commonly referred to as MTG Arena,[1] Magic Arena[2] or just Arena[3] within the broader Magic: The Gathering context. The game was released in a beta state in November 2017, and was fully released for Microsoft Windows users in September 2019, with a macOS version due in 2020. Gameplay MTG Arena follows the same rules as the physical card game, which players use decks of cards that include land cards that generate five separate colors of mana, and play cards that consume that mana to summon creatures, cast offensive and defensive spells, or other activate effects. Players battle other players using a selected deck, with the goal of reducing the op

Brake fluid

topic

Brake fluid

Brake fluid is a type of hydraulic fluid used in hydraulic brake and hydraulic clutch applications in automobiles, motorcycles, light trucks, and some bicycles. It is used to transfer force into pressure, and to amplify braking force. It works because liquids are not appreciably compressible. Most brake fluids used today are glycol-ether based, but mineral oil (Citroën/Rolls-Royce liquide hydraulique minéral (LHM)) and silicone-based (DOT 5) fluids are also available.[1] Standards Brake fluids must meet certain requirements as defined by various standards set by international, national, or local organizations or government agencies. International The International Standards Organisation has published its standard ISO 4925, defining classes 3, 4, and 5, as well as class 5-1 and class 6,[2] reflecting progressively higher performance for brake fluids. United States The Society of Automotive Engineers SAE has published standards J1703, J1704, and J1705, reflecting progressively higher performance for brak

Quantum dot display

topic

Quantum dot display

Colloidal quantum dots irradiated with a UV light. Different sized quantum dots emit different color light due to quantum confinement. A quantum dot display is a display device that uses quantum dots (QD), semiconductor nanocrystals which can produce pure monochromatic red, green, and blue light. Photo-emissive quantum dot particles are used in a QD layer which converts the backlight to emit pure basic colors which improve display brightness and color gamut by reducing light losses and color crosstalk in RGB color filters. This technology is used in LED-backlit LCDs, though it is applicable to other display technologies which use color filters, such as white or blue/UV OLED. LED-backlit LCDs are the main application of quantum dots. Electro-emissive or electroluminiscent quantum dot displays are an experimental type of display based on quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LED; also EL-QLED, ELQD, QDEL). These displays are similar to active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) and MicroLED displays

Machine Identification Code

Hexagonal dots on white paper, produced by color laser printer (enlarged, dot diameter about 0.1 mm) A Machine Identification Code (MIC), also known as printer steganography, yellow dots, tracking dots or secret dots, is a digital watermark which certain color laser printers and copiers leave on every single printed page, allowing identification of the device with which a document was printed and giving clues to the originator. Developed by Xerox and Canon in the mid-1980s, its existence became public only in 2004. In 2018, scientists developed privacy software to anonymize prints in order to support whistleblowers publishing their work.[1][2][3] History In the mid-1980s Xerox pioneered an encoding mechanism for a unique number represented by tiny dots spread over the entire print area. Xerox developed the machine identification code "to assuage fears that their color copiers could be used to counterfeit bills"[4] and received U.S. Patent No 5515451 describing the use of the yellow dots to identify the sou

Java version history

The Java language has undergone several changes since JDK 1.0 as well as numerous additions of classes and packages to the standard library. Since J2SE 1.4, the evolution of the Java language has been governed by the Java Community Process (JCP), which uses Java Specification Requests (JSRs) to propose and specify additions and changes to the Java platform. The language is specified by the Java Language Specification (JLS); changes to the JLS are managed under JSR 901. In addition to the language changes, much more dramatic changes have been made to the Java Class Library over the years, which has grown from a few hundred classes in JDK 1.0 to over three thousand in J2SE 5. Entire new APIs, such as Swing and Java2D, have been introduced, and many of the original JDK 1.0 classes and methods have been deprecated. Some programs allow conversion of Java programs from one version of the Java platform to an older one (for example Java 5.0 backported to 1.4) (see Java backporting tools).

Dots per inch

A close-up of the dots produced by an inkjet printer at draft quality. Actual size is approximately 0.25 inch by 0.25 inch (0.403 cm2). Individual colored droplets of ink are visible; this sample is about 150 DPI. Dots per inch (DPI, or dpi[1]) is a measure of spatial printing, video or image scanner dot density, in particular the number of individual dots that can be placed in a line within the span of 1 inch (2.54 cm). Similarly, the more newly introduced[2] dots per centimeter (d/cm or dpcm) refers to the number of individual dots that can be placed within a line of 1 centimeter (≈ 0.393 in). Monitors do not have dots, but do have pixels; the closely related concept for monitors and images is pixels per inch or PPI. Many resources, including the Android developer guide, use the terms DPI and PPI interchangeably.

WWE Universal Championship

The WWE Universal Championship is a world heavyweight championship[b] created and promoted by the American professional wrestling promotion WWE on the Raw brand.[9] It is one of two world titles for WWE's main roster, alongside the WWE Championship on the SmackDown brand. The current champion is Seth Rollins, who is in his second reign. Named in honor of the WWE Universe,[10] the championship was established on July 25, 2016 to be the world championship of the Raw brand. Its creation came as a result of the re-introduction of the brand split and subsequent draft on July 19, 2016 in which the WWE Championship, the promotion's original world title, became exclusive to SmackDown.[11] The inaugural Universal Champion was Finn Bálor. Since its inception, matches for the championship have headlined several pay-per-view events, including SummerSlam in 2017[12], 2018,[13] 2019,[14] and WrestleMania 34[15], both being two of WWE's "big four" pay-per-views, the latter of which is WWE's flagship event.

Two Dots

topic

Two Dots

Two Dots is a puzzle video game for iOS and Android, developed and published by American indie studio Playdots, Inc. The Windows 10 Mobile and Microsoft Windows versions are no longer supported. It is the sequel to Dots. It was released for iOS platforms on May 29, 2014[2], and became available for Android on November 12, 2014.[3] Gameplay Unlike Dots, Two Dots has power-ups, objectives and a campaign (series of levels), while lacking online multi-player capability. At the start of the game, only level one is unlocked; each subsequent level is unlocked only when the previous level is beaten. Levels are grouped into "worlds", with the first ten levels assigned to one world, and after that every 25 levels grouped into a world. Worlds differ in gameplay elements, obstacles and objectives. In the earliest levels of the game, objectives include sinking anchors and breaking ice; the objective is to accomplish a target number of each, for example to sink a specified number of anchors. As each world is completed, t

SIMPLE algorithm

topic

SIMPLE algorithm

In computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the SIMPLE algorithm is a widely used numerical procedure to solve the Navier-Stokes equations. SIMPLE is an acronym for Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations. The SIMPLE algorithm was developed by Prof. Brian Spalding and his student Suhas Patankar at Imperial College, London in the early 1970s. Since then it has been extensively used by many researchers to solve different kinds of fluid flow and heat transfer problems.[1][2] Many popular books on computational fluid dynamics discuss the SIMPLE algorithm in detail.[3][4] A modified variant is the SIMPLER algorithm (SIMPLE Revised), that was introduced by Patankar in 1979.[5] Algorithm The algorithm is iterative. The basic steps in the solution update are as follows: Set the boundary conditions. Compute the gradients of velocity and pressure. Solve the discretized momentum equation to compute the intermediate velocity field. Compute the uncorrected mass fluxes at faces. Solve the pressure correctio

Quantum dot laser

topic

Quantum dot laser

A quantum dot laser is a semiconductor laser that uses quantum dots as the active laser medium in its light emitting region. Due to the tight confinement of charge carriers in quantum dots, they exhibit an electronic structure similar to atoms. Lasers fabricated from such an active media exhibit device performance that is closer to gas lasers, and avoid some of the negative aspects of device performance associated with traditional semiconductor lasers based on bulk or quantum well active media. Improvements in modulation bandwidth, lasing threshold, relative intensity noise, linewidth enhancement factor and temperature insensitivity have all been observed. The quantum dot active region may also be engineered to operate at different wavelengths by varying dot size and composition. This allows quantum dot lasers to be fabricated to operate at wavelengths previously not possible using semiconductor laser technology. Recently, devices based on quantum dot active media are finding commercial application in medici

WWE Women's Tag Team Championship

The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling women's tag team championship created and promoted by the American professional wrestling promotion WWE for the Raw, SmackDown, and NXT brands.[1][2] The current champions are Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross from Raw, who are in their first reign. The championship was established on the December 24, 2018, episode of Monday Night Raw. The Boss 'n' Hug Connection (Bayley and Sasha Banks) were the inaugural champions who were part of the Raw brand during their reign. The title is distinct from the WWF Women's Tag Team Championship, as it does not carry the lineage of the former title, which was contested from 1983–1989. History Inaugural champions Bayley Sasha Banks The Boss 'n' Hug Connection, part of the Raw brand during their inaugural reign In 1989, the then-World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE) abandoned the WWF Women's Tag Team Championship due to the lack of women's tag teams in the division.

Tier list

topic

Tier list

A tier list is a list of playable characters or other elements of a video game, subjectively ranked by their respective viability in high-level competitive settings. Characters listed high on a tier list of a specific game are considered to be powerful characters compared to lower-scoring characters, and are therefore more likely to be used during tournaments. Tier lists are popular in fighting games such as the Street Fighter and Super Smash Bros. series, and MOBA titles such as League of Legends and Dota 2, in addition to hero shooter titles such as Overwatch and Paladins. Methodology When a competitive game gets an update, a question that arises is how the changes in the game will affect the tier list. Even when no balancing changes actually took place, the inclusion of new characters or new systems can affect tier lists. In fighting games, the strength of a character is always held relative to that of other characters, meaning that something that is strong in one fighting game does not necessarily have

Dictionary of Occupational Titles

topic

Dictionary of Occupational Titles

The Dictionary of Occupational Titles or D-O-T (DOT) refers to a publication produced by the United States Department of Labor which helped employers, government officials, and workforce development professionals to define over 13,000 different types of work, from 1938 to the late 1990s. The DOT was created by job analysts who visited thousands of US worksites to observe and record the various types of work, and what was involved. Innovative at the time, the DOT included information still used today in settling EEO and Workers Comp claims, like the physical abilities required to perform that occupation, and the time and repetitiveness of those physical actions (i.e. standing, sitting, lifting 20 pounds or more, seeing at a distance, near vision, hearing quiet sounds, ignoring loud sounds). The DOT was later rendered obsolete and was replaced by an online database which was based largely on voluntary input from occupation incumbents (people who have direct experience working in each occupation).

Pay to surf

topic

Pay to surf

Pay to surf (PTS) is a business model that became popular in the late 1990s until the dot-com crash. Essentially, a company uses income from advertising placed on members' screens to pay them for time spent browsing the web. Process A PTS company would provide a smaller program to be installed on a member's computer. Advertisers' banner ads were then displayed while the member was browsing the web. Since the company's Viewbar software tracked websites that the user visited, the PTS company was able to deliver targeted ads for their advertisers. Advertisers paid the company a small amount (typically US$0.50) for every hour of a member's surfing. Members were usually limited on the amount of time per month for which they would be paid to surf (typically 20 hours). However, PTS companies also paid their members for each new user referred to the company (typically US$0.05 - US$0.10 per recruit). Thus, it was profitable for a member to garner as many referrals as possible, encouraging some users to recruit memb

Defense of the Ancients

Defense of the Ancients (DotA) is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) mod for the video game Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and its expansion, The Frozen Throne. The objective of the game is for each team to destroy their opponents' Ancient, a heavily guarded structure at the opposing corner of the map, which is based on the "Aeon of Strife" map for StarCraft. Players use powerful units known as heroes, and are assisted by allied teammates and AI-controlled fighters. As in role-playing games, players level up their heroes and use gold to buy equipment during the mission. The scenario was developed with the "World Editor" of Reign of Chaos, and was updated upon the release of its expansion, The Frozen Throne. There have been many variations of the original concept, the most popular being DotA Allstars, eventually simplified to DotA. The mod has been maintained by several authors during development, with the pseudonymous designer, known as IceFrog, maintaining the game since the mid-2000s. DotA became a fe

BMW N63

The BMW N63 is a twin-turbo V8 petrol engine which has been in production from 2008 to present. The N63 is the world's first production car engine to use a "hot-vee" layout, with the turbochargers located inside the "V" of the engine. It is also BMW's first turbocharged V8 engine. The N63 replaced the BMW N62 (a naturally aspirated V8 engine) and was first used in the 2008 X6 xDrive50i.[1] The S63 engine is the BMW M high-performance version of the N63. Alpina versions of the N63 are used in various F01 7 Series, F10 5 Series, G11 7 Series and G30 5 Series models. Design The airflow path through the engine uses a "hot-vee" layout, where the exhaust manifolds and turbochargers are located between the cylinder banks (on the "inside" of the V8) and the intake manifolds are located on the outside of the engine.[2] This is opposite to the traditional layout for a V8, where the intake is inside the "V" and the exhaust manifold is on the outside. The hot-vee layout reduces the width of the engine and decreases

Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress is a four-engined heavy bomber developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC). Competing against Douglas and Martin for a contract to build 200 bombers, the Boeing entry (prototype Model 299/XB-17) outperformed both competitors and exceeded the air corps' performance specifications. Although Boeing lost the contract (to the Douglas B-18 Bolo) because the prototype crashed, the air corps ordered 13 more B-17s for further evaluation. From its introduction in 1938, the B-17 Flying Fortress evolved through numerous design advances,[6][7] becoming the third-most produced bomber of all time, behind the four-engined B-24 and the multirole, twin-engined Ju 88. The B-17 was primarily employed by the USAAF in the daylight strategic bombing campaign of World War II against German industrial and military targets.

DNS over TLS

DNS over TLS (DoT) is a security protocol for encrypting and wrapping Domain Name System (DNS) queries and answers via the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. The goal of the method is to increase user privacy and security by preventing eavesdropping and manipulation of DNS data via man-in-the-middle attacks. As of 2019, Cloudflare, Quad9, Google, Quadrant Information Security and CleanBrowsing are providing public DNS resolver services via DNS over TLS.[1][2][3][4][5] In April 2018, Google announced that Android Pie will include support for DNS over TLS,[6] allowing users to set a DNS server phone-wide on both WiFi and mobile connections, an option that was historically only possible on rooted devices.

theGlobe.com was an internet startup founded in 1995[1] by Cornell students Stephan Paternot and Todd Krizelman. A social networking service, theGlobe.com made headlines by going public on November 13, 1998 and posting the largest first day gain of any IPO in history up to that date.[2] Part of the dot-com bubble, the company's stock price collapsed the next year, and the company retrenched for several years before ceasing operations in 2008. History Early success theglobe.com screenshot (12-15-2000) While undergraduates at Cornell, Paternot and Krizelman encountered a primitive chatroom on the university's computer network and quickly became engrossed.[3] Realizing the business potential, the two raised $15,000 over the 1994 Christmas break and purchased an Apple Internet Server. They founded a programming company, WebGenesis, and spent the next few months programming what would become their primary website. theGlobe.com went live April 1, 1995, and attracted over 44,000 visits within the first month.[4
