This guide will cover the main questline only, so the huge amount of sidequests you’ll run into along your journey in Skyrim won’t be listed here. Of the main quest, there are really two threads that somewhat intertwine. The first thread, which will be covered in this guide and is the focal point of the main quest is the return of Dragons to Skyrim and your ascension as Dragonborn. There is also the Skyrim Civil War storyline which we feel is secondary to the return of the dragons, as such we’ll only be covering that thread in as it overlaps with the return of the dragons storyline....

Android smartwatches have seen their share of ups and downs. Despite Google offering a basic operating system, many companies started to branch out, including Samsung, creating their own versions of the OS, which offered better features and battery life than Google’s version. Unfortunately, this means the Android smartwatch market became extremely fragmented, making it hard for consumers to find apps or even watches that worked seamlessly with their devices. Now that Google and Samsung are working together, experts say the future of Wear OS never has been as bright as it is right now....

Unlike some Android tablets, which are pretty much just big phones, the iPad has some curious limitations that stop you from using it as a full-on iPhone replacement. It can’t make regular phone calls or receive SMS messages. It has no Wallet app, and it can’t pair with an Apple Watch. You can kind of work around some of these limits, but it’s such a shame that Apple doesn’t make it possible to go solo with the iPad....

Despite its phenomenal computing power, gaming on the iPhone is mostly about quick-fix games and gambling apps that trick children into spending their parents’ money via in-app purchases. That’s partly down to Apple’s relationships with gaming companies and partly because the touch screen is a pretty bad way to control sophisticated games. But Sony seems to think otherwise. It has just released a hardware controller for the iPhone. “Apple has shown basically no interest in games, despite its focus on entertainment and games being one of the few growing areas of the entertainment industry,” iOS app developer and Apple-watching journalist Graham Bower told Lifewire via email....

What does the STR-DN1070 offer? Here is a look at some of what you get if you choose to go with it.

Torches There’s no worse feeling in “Minecraft” than being trapped in the dark. At all. You’ll never know what may be behind you and you’ll for sure never know what you’re missing, especially in a cave. Keeping a good amount of Torches in your inventory allows for you to light up an area within an instant, allows you to break a good amount of Sand or Gravel without wasting time or a Shovel (by quickly breaking the lowest Sand/Gravel block and quickly putting a Torch in its place), and to find your way out of a sticky situation by creating a path of Torches to help you find your way back to where you started....

The Most Likely Reasons Bluetooth Won’t Connect When you can’t pair a Bluetooth headset to your phone or Bluetooth car kit, there are several potential causes.

Take the case of the iPhone 11 Pro that recently was found working after spending 30 days sunken in a frozen Canadian lake. Angie Carriere was ice fishing in Saskatchewan when she accidentally dropped her iPhone 11 Pro into the lake. It wound up working fine after being retrieved and charged. Experts say phone survival is a combination of luck and design. “It’s common to think cold and heat can play a factor in conditions, but the tolerances for electronics in those fields are so high, the major danger is the [permeable] nature of the chassis of the device,” Derek Whitaker, marketing manager at rugged device maker Estone Technology, said in an email interview....

The new feature, called “Heads Up,” is the company’s latest attempt to curb harassment and abuse on Twitter. The official Twitter Support account shows off the two different prompts; one is a simple notification stating the conservation is intense and the other encourages empathy and fact-checking. The second prompt has three rules reminding people there’s a human on the other side, that facts are important to a conversation, and to be mindful of different perspectives....

There are several methods of getting around this problem. Booting from the Recovery HD partition or a different device: The Recovery HD is a special partition on your startup drive that has been present since OS X Lion and later. You can also boot from another drive that has a bootable system on it, or your OS X Install DVD, if you computer came with one. Safe Mode: This is a special booting method that forces your Mac to perform an automatic disk check and repair as it tries to start up....

How UMA Works UMA is, in fact, a commercial name for a generic access network. When a handset already in communication through a wireless WAN enters the area of a wireless LAN network, it presents itself to the WAN’s GAN controller as being on a different base station of the WAN and shifts to the wireless LAN network. The unlicensed LAN is presented as a part of the licensed WAN, and thus the transition is smoothly allowed....

Types of Cell Modems Current modems follow one of three form factors: Built into cell phones: Supports connections in a setup known as tethering. Portable cellular cards: These are network adapters that plug into computers, sometimes called aircards. Cellular routers: These are portable network routers that contain built-in cellular modems. For most non-corporate users, the built-in modems are the standard hardware. Set up a Cellphone as a Wireless Modem Cellular service providers sell service plans (called data plans) that authorize digital phones to work as wireless internet modems....

Spike is the first email client for the Oculus Quest 2 headset, and after using it for a few days, I can say that it makes even work emails fun. It’s a full-featured collaboration tool that includes things like video meetings, voice messaging, and notes. There’s nothing like answering emails while sitting in a virtual Japanese inn with crickets chirping in the background. The experience of being able to focus while in a virtual world checking messages made me realize how much more productive I could be....

However, it may be named something else depending on the operating system or app. Here are some of the more common network settings you may encounter: Wi-Fi network names and passwords.Local computer network preferences.Cellular network authentication and connection options.Data download limits and options....

Kids’ profiles on the streaming platform no longer show films that feature an advisory message on racism. Some of these movies include Peter Pan, The Aristocats, Lady and the Tramp, and Dumbo, which have to be watched with parental approval. Experts say this is a good move on Disney’s part to make content containing racial stereotypes less accessible to watch. “Disney is finally doing something [it] should have done many years ago: admitting racial prejudices and stereotyping,” wrote Jamil Aziz, the team lead of digital marketing at Streaming Digitally, to Lifewire in an email....

Bitstrips’ spin-off app, Bitmoji, (founded in 2014, but also acquired by Snapchat) which is a similar service, is still popular today and has been integrated as a Snapchat filter as well as a stand-alone app that can be used with other types of messaging services. What Was Bitstrips? Bitstrips was a popular comic builder app that people used to create funny cartoons and emoji of themselves and tell stories about their lives through personalized web comics....

Those crazy letter and number codes are called CAPTCHA, and they are essentially a human response test. The word is an acronym for: Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. Why Websites Use CAPTCHA The reasoning behind why websites implement CAPTCHA codes in their registration processes is because of spam. Those crazy characters are a way to check if the person registering or trying to comment is a live human being as opposed to a computer program attempting to spam the site....

How a Foreign Key Works to Establish a Relationship A primary key uniquely identifies each record in the table. It is a type of candidate key that is usually the first column in a table and can be automatically generated by the database to ensure that it is unique. A foreign key is another candidate key (not the primary key) used to link a record to data in another table. For example, consider these two tables that identify which teacher teaches which course....
