![]() Despite being a vector editor, Affinity Designer exports to PSD instead. Saving back to AI, however, is not possible. Updating outdated logos in a native AI file created in CS2 can be completed within Affinity Designer in minutes. While other non-Adobe programs could convert PSD or EPS files and open in a non-editable format, Affinity Designer is able to open and edit PSD, AI and EPS with relative ease. Whether sharing working files with a team or updating templates created on another platform, compatibility is an issue that very few graphics programs have addressed in the past. For example, the current release of Affinity Designer does not include a perspective grid or column graph tool. Users who are dependent on classic Photoshop tools such as the magic wand or cloning brush will need to spend another $49.99 for Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer’s sister program, released in 2015.Įxperienced vector artists and infographic designers will find a noticeable lack of the more advanced tools found in Illustrator CC. For designers who work in Photoshop and Illustrator simultaneously, using Affinity Designer may be a time saver. With the persona toolbar-which divides vector, pixel and export tools into three separate sets-users can switch between tool sets without interruption to workflow. The learning curve is more like a gentle slope for designers experienced in Illustrator or Photoshop.Īffinity Designer comes with all the standard pen and shape tools to complete complex vector and pixel-based artwork. Budding designers will find all the necessary tools clearly organized and accessible and the default toolbars and keyboard shortcuts will feel familiar to Adobe users. With the ability to edit and create pixel layers, Affinity Designer ostensibly functions as an Illustrator/Photoshop hybrid-but could it be an attractive alternative to designers who work frequently in both programs? Does Affinity Designer offer enough features to sway long-time Adobe users? Or is it better suited for beginners? Tool setsįor new designers and old pros, Affinity Designer offers a modern, intuitive user interface that allows users to transition almost seamlessly between it and Illustrator. ![]() Available for $49.99, Affinity Designer could be easily dismissed as another cheap graphics program aimed at amateurs, but it was created specifically for professional designers accustomed to working in a Mac environment. Now the company is taking on the graphics software market for Mac. ![]() Serif was established in the 1990s as a developer of low-cost, PC/Windows desktop publishing software for entry-level users. What is Affinity Designer?Ĭreated by UK-based Serif Labs, Affinity Designer is a vector graphics editor designed as an alternative to Adobe’s Illustrator. But does it deliver? We took a look at three essential design components-tool sets, import/export file capability and workspace features-and reviewed how Affinity Designer stacks up in comparison with Illustrator. ![]() ![]() X3: Farnham's Legacy has been tested by a small but dedicated team of volunteers.

![]() ![]() Apparently, the former Guitar-Hero-gone-Zero used Cheat Engine to slow down songs in Clone Hero, a faithful PC port of Guitar Hero, and play them at an easier difficulty. What they discovered was that Schmooey absolutely sucked at Guitar Hero, but his video editing skills were on point. The fact that his fingers weren’t hitting the notes displayed on the screen in some segments of the song, and a small glimpse of the WMP overlay, prompted several community members to go through Schmooey’s work, frame-by-frame and note-by-note. Given the song’s complexity and speed, especially in the later segments, congratulations and praises ensued until a single comment pointed out several inconsistencies with the run. His take on the song was impressive, and he hit every single note, leading to another perfect score. Until December 2021, when Schmooey uploaded his run of the song 9 Patterns Of Eternal Pain. Admittedly, some oddities were noticed along the way, a video lag here and there, some dark footage, etc., but none of these offered any conclusive proof that would question Schmooey’s skill and legitimacy. ![]() Schmooey would record his guitar sessions, the game would record all keystrokes as perfect, and the legend lived on. Let’s start by saying that Schmooey was incredibly good at playing Guitar Hero, so good, in fact, that he made a few thousand bucks over the course of his “career,” claiming bounties that the community had placed on clearing advanced in-game songs with perfect scores. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can also upload and share your favorite Metro: Last Light wallpapers.

Is it better to be late than never? The saying comes from Night Thoughts (1742–5) by the English poet and dramatist Edward Young (1683–1765). "Procrastination is the thief of time" is a mid-18th century proverb meaning that someone who continually puts things off ultimately achieves very little. To finish I thought I’d include a few quotes from some of the people who played. ![]() For example, “How many Big Macs are sold per year?” As everyone is guessing the answer, I don’t suppose it really matters if this is in the UK or the entire world, but players did want the question clarifying. My only negative is that some of the questions need clarification. It’s worth mentioning that there isn’t a dominant strategy in the game. The sheer variety of cards ensure that no two games are the same. Shot in the Dark is full of wonderful ‘laugh out loud’ moments as players naturally interact and discuss the answers.Īll players are involved in the game all the time – there is virtually no downtime which is quite unusual in a game. The file has been downloaded 1,400 times!) If you own both games, then a high percentage of the questions can be used in both games - they both use the same sort of random knowledge-based questions so essentially you are getting two games for the price of one! (In fact I uploaded a file to Board Game Geek of some UK/worldwide centred questions. One of my other trivia games is Wits and Wagers. It’s so easy to play and very quick to set up. Shot in the Dark is now my favourite, go to, trivia game. In my game teams amazingly guessed the correct answer 4 times which generated a lot of excitement and joy. If two teams tied with the same answer then they both scored the relevant points. The next closest team scored 1 point and any team scoring the exact answer scored 3 points. So, nearest to the correct answer scored 2 points. I changed the scoring system to give more teams the chance to score points. I wasn’t happy with the suggested scoring system as only the team guessing nearest to the correct answer scores a point. The game ended after the agreed time limit of 90 minutes. This is a moot point as the answers were written down by the teams, but I suppose teams could cheat if they had that mindset. In subsequent questions the order that teams were asked was varied as it is felt that the team answering last has an advantage. Then the questionmaster asks each team for their answer and writes the answers down on a piece of paper. After a few questions, the timer was largely irrelevant as everyone came up with an answer well within the time limit. The teams were encouraged to keep an eye on the sand timer and to mute their microphones. The questionmaster reads out a question from one of the cards and each team is given 1 minute to discuss and then write down their answers. ![]() ![]() ![]() Unrivalled help for wordgames Chambers is the dictionary of choice for crossword solvers, Scrabble(R) fans, and wordgame enthusiasts.

Restful APIs should always be stateless, and the most widely used alternative to authentication with JWTs is to just store the user's log-in state on the server using sessions. So there is no need to store any session state on the server, which of course is perfect for restful APIs. Json Web Tokens are a stateless solution for authentication. JWT is a very modern, simple and secure approach which extends for Json Web Tokens. For similar reasons, JWT should always be exchanged over a secure layer like HTTPS. Not doing so will mean that a man-in-the-middle attack is possible-a proxy server or ISP reads the cookies and then replays them later on pretending to be you. If you aren't then it's advisable to encrypt sensitive cookies themselves. If you are using HTTPS then everything is good. Cookies often contain unencrypted payloads. It's not too different from how cookies themselves work. This keeps JWT small in size and avoids inadvertent information leakage because everyone knows not to keep sensitive data in JWT. Once the server receives the JWT token and validates it, it is free to lookup the user ID in its own database for additional information for that user (like permissions, postal address, etc). A simple implementation makes adoption easier but it also lets each layer do what it does best (let HTTPS handle encryption). Once you know you have a secure channel between the server and client you can securely exchange JWT or whatever else you want. If dealing with a client like the web browser for example, you can store the JWT tokens in a cookie that is secure (is not transmitted via HTTP, only via HTTPS) and httpOnly (can't be read by Javascript) and talks to the server over an encrypted channel (HTTPS). The simplest reason is because it assumes this is a solved problem for the most part. The logical question is what is the motivation for not concerning itself with encrypted contents? Later on it verifies the payload and matching signature. The server adds a signature based on the payload when issuing a token to the client. That is to say, it can always get the answer for "Have the contents of this token been manipulated"? This means user manipulation of the JWT token is futile because the server will know and disregard the token. The short answer is that JWT doesn't concern itself with encryption. This is jarring for a lot of people initially. You can go to jwt.io, paste your token and read the contents. If I suppose that the recipient knows the secret, he CAN calculate the signature of any message and check if it's correct. You can't because you don't know which secret I used. Let's suppose, I send another person the message. This means if she changes something, the signature won't match anymore, and Bob will simply not accept the JWT anymore. ![]() She doesn't know the secret and has no way of finding it out. If however, Mallory changes something in the content, she isn't able to calculate the matching signature (which would be Hash(newContent + secret)). When receiving the message, Bob can also calculate Hash(payload + secret) to check whether the signature matches. To prevent that, Alice calculates Hash(payload + secret) and appends this as signature. Mallory doesn't know that secret, but wants to interfere and change the JWT. Let's assume Alice wants to send a JWT to Bob. Just to be sure: do you know and understand digital signatures? I'll just briefly explain one variant (HMAC, which is symmetrical, but there are many others). ![]() Otherwise, the receiver will notice that the signature won't match anymore.Īnswer to your comment: I'm not sure if I understand your comment the right way. If a token is signed, but not encrypted, everyone can read its contents, but when you don't know the private key, you can't change it. ![]() JWTs can be either signed, encrypted or both. ![]() ![]() ![]() NOTICE: This game is already pre-installed for you, meaning you don’t have to install it.
