Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an action-adventure game played from a third-person perspective players take on the role of Lara Croft as she explores environments across Mexico and Peru. While opening to slow sales, the game eventually shipped over 8.9 million copies worldwide. Released as the final installment in Lara Croft's origin trilogy, Shadow of the Tomb Raider received generally positive reviews from critics, with particular praise going to the game's emphasis on challenge tombs and puzzles, although some felt that the series' gameplay had become stale and lacked innovation. The game cost an estimated US$110–135 million to develop, making it one of the most expensive games ever made. Camilla Luddington returned to provide voice and motion-capture work for Lara. The gameplay was adjusted based on both fan feedback and the wishes of Eidos Montréal, incorporating swimming and grappling while increasing difficulty tailoring. The setting and narrative was based on Mayan and Aztec mythologies, with the team consulting historians to create the architecture and people of Paititi. Shadow of the Tomb Raider was designed to conclude Lara's journey begun in the 2013 reboot, with a key theme being descent both through the jungle environment and into her personality. In these hubs she can raid challenge tombs to unlock new rewards, complete side missions, and scavenge for resources which can be used to craft useful materials.ĭevelopment began in 2015 following the completion of Rise of the Tomb Raider, lasting until July 2018. Lara must traverse the environment and combat enemies with firearms and stealth as she explores semi- open hubs. Set roughly a year after the events of Rise of the Tomb Raider, its story follows Lara Croft as she ventures through the tropical regions of the Americas to the legendary city Paititi, battling the paramilitary organization Trinity and racing to stop a Mayan apocalypse she has unleashed. After release, the game was expanded upon with downloadable content in both a season pass and as standalone releases. Versions for macOS and Linux, and Stadia, were released in November 2019. The game was originally released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It continues the narrative from the 2015 game Rise of the Tomb Raider and is the twelfth mainline entry in the Tomb Raider series, as well as the third and final entry of the Survivor trilogy.

![]() If there is little to no threat to the continuation to the course of gameplay like in Passage, Proteus, or in Minecraft (creative mode) there is primarily positive freedom possible (Carter 2012). This leads to the opposite extreme of the fear-structure in games. ![]() Positive freedom is the possibility for “freedom as self-mastery or self-realization” (Carter 2012) when there is no threat to a game’s continuation. In Minecraft (survival mode) we can then speak of a positive freedom based on negative freedom. if the player entity is hidden in a safe house or it is continuously suspended like in Minecraft (creative mode). In Minecraft (survival mode) the space of threat can get much larger dimensions to the extent that the fear-structure is temporarily suspended, e.g. Hence the freedom in Tetris is only a promise of negative freedom understood as “the absence of obstacles, barriers or constraints” (Carter 2012). In Tetris the space between the detrimental and susceptible entity expands and contracts only a little over the course of gameplay but the player cannot do much else during the game. ![]() It will then become visible that the freedom differs in kind and degree. Since the fear structure is essentially spatial, the best way to deal with such threat is getting as much literal or metaphorical space between the detrimental entity or event and its susceptible counterpart. This paper argues further that freedom in existential games always depends on the successful understanding and dealing with such fear situations by the player. In terms of an existential ludology the fear-structure is a substantial part of the “gameplay condition” (Leino 2012). Otherwise the game’s continuation is at stake. In these games there exists always at least one entity (tetromino in Tetris) or event (running out of money in SimCity (Maxis 1989)) which is not supposed to coincide with another, detrimental entity (upper game space limit in Tetris) or event (building an expensive building in SimCity) that is usually in a harmful physical or metaphorical distance. ![]() depend on an elementary restriction to freedom which will be termed the fear-structure based on Heidegger’s analysis of fear (2008). (Nintendo 1985), all first-person shooters, XCOM: Enemy Unknown (Firaxis Games 2012) etc. To do so this paper demonstrates that many existential computer games (games whose own being at play is at stake (Gadamer 2004, 106 Leino 2012)) like Minecraft (survival mode) (Mojang 2011), Tetris (Pajitnov, Gerasimov, and Pavlovsky 1984), Super Mario Bros. This paper therefore suggests studying the phenomenon of freedom in games from the perspective of existential philosophy with an emphasis on fear and boredom as discussed by Heidegger. It should be noted that Fink as a German native speaker does not distinguish between play and games. This paper holds that games considered as “mirror image” of reality (Fink 1968, 22) exhibit a similar existential structure as Heidegger’s Dasein (2008) in that “play is a basic existential phenomenon, just as primordial and autonomous as death, love, work and struggle for power” (Fink 1968, 22). It is therefore to assume that the difference between freedom and restrictions in everyday life is repeated in games, too. However, concepts like the “lusory attitude” by Suits (2005) suggest that – apart from free play –most other instances of play (such as the playing of a game) provide freedom from everyday life only at the cost of different constraints. This paper offers an essential structure of freedom in games different from romantic play theories like Huizinga (1998) and Caillois (2001) which hold “the first main characteristic of play: that it is free, is in fact freedom” (Huizinga 1998, 8) and in which freedom signifies the player’s voluntary decision to play and to thereby suspend rules and customs of everyday life. Aiming to contribute to an existential ludology, it argues that freedom is a basic element in games which occurs between structural fear and boredom. This paper analyzes freedom structures of computer games from the perspective of existential philosophy, classical game and play philosophy, game studies, and the spatiality of games (e.g. ![]() Therefore, it is wise to familiarize yourself with the AUPs of the Internet services you use.

Without any hassle, it lets you sync all required folders. ![]() You can enable/disable sync process notifications.īitTorrent Sync is simply good enough to sync multiple folders between different mobile devices and computers.History is also stored for each sync process.Its PC client lets you view total number of connected devices.If the destination folder chosen by you in smartphone already contains some files, then those files will also sync to your PC. Step 3: Once the connection is established, sync will start automatically, and sync folder will come to your mobile with all files. Now you have to scan the computer code to establish connection between your phone and PC. After this, click on Scan a QR code button. Step 2: Run BitTorrent Sync app on your smartphone and select a location for sync folder. So you should move main sync folder only. You can also create other folders than main sync folder, but in my testing, sync failed with other folders. In QR code, it also lets you set permission (full access or read only) for sync folder. This will provide a QR code that will help to connect your phone with your PC. Step 1: On its PC client interface, right-click on sync folder, and click on Connect mobile device option. To sync folders between PC and Android (or iPhone and Windows phone), you need to install the app on your smartphone. As soon as the syncing is done, notification is provided to you.Īfter this, whenever you or your friend will add or delete files to that folder, sync will start automatically (if both devices are running at that time). After finishing the installation, BitTorrent Sync will run silently in system tray and sync process will start automatically. Give the secret key to your friends and let them finish the installation process by selecting destination folder (for storing your sync folder). Also, they have to add the same secret key that was generated for your sync folder. During the installation process, your friend(s) need to select ‘ I have a secret‘ option. Now keep running BitTorrent Sync on your PC and let your friend(s) start installing BitTorrent Sync to their PCs. Step 2: After setting up sync folder, you can add multiple folders inside that folder. A secret sharing key for that folder will also be generated during installation process. You can either choose existing folder or generate a new folder. This will let you select your main sync folder. Step 1: Install BitTorrent Sync on your PC by following the Standard Setup process. To make it easy to understand how it works, lets divide this sync process in two parts: sync folders between computers and sync folders between PC and smartphone. It is a lightweight software which comes with a setup file less than 3 MB.

You might also be interested to look at these 5 free folder synchronization software. To sync folders between computers, you have to use the main sync folder only. Note: Main interface of BitTorrent Sync lets you add more and more folders for sync, but sync for those folders can be done with smartphones only. Whenever a new file is added or any file is deleted from sync folder, it automatically updates other devices. In screenshot above, you can see it provides notification whenever sync is completed with all online devices (that are running BitTorrent Sync). You only need to install BitTorrent Sync to other devices, and insert secret key to start automatic synchronization. A secret key is also generated for sharing that folder. It lets you create a sync folder in which you can add required folders for syncing. You don’t have to connect with same network and there is no file size limit to sync folders. ![]() Thus, a direct connection is established between your devices for sync.

They were commonly found in solvents, aerosol sprays and coolants in refrigerators. The emission of chloroflourocarbons (CFCs) massively increases the concentration of these free radicals which then leads to the depletion of the ozone layer.ĬFCs are compounds made from carbon, fluorine and chlorine, which were invented in the 1920s. ![]() Free radicals such as chlorine and bromine atoms shift the cycle to produce more O 2 than O 3 this depletes the ozone layer. It is continually being regenerated from O 2 through the UV dependent ozone-oxygen cycle. Ozone is a triatomic oxygen molecule, O 3, found mainly in the stratosphere, which is approximately 10–40 km above the Earth's surface. The Earth receives UVR from the sun, all of the UV-C and the majority of UV-A and UV-B is filtered out by the ozone layer. 8 Although UV-B appears to be more important than UV-A as a risk factor, a causal link to UV-A exposure is also supported by data from patients using tanning beds 9 and or treated with psoralan UV-A (PUVA) for psoriasis. This is supported by the higher incidence of melanoma in equatorial regions than in latitudes further from the equator, as UV-B radiation is most intense at the equator while UV-A intensity varies less across latitudes. UV-B appears more closely associated with the development of melanoma than UV-A (320–400 nm). Exposure to UVR, fair skin, dysplastic naevi syndrome and a family history of melanoma are major risk factors for melanoma development. 7 Melanoma is also the third most common cancer among 15–39 year olds. An American study revealed that an increase in skin biopsy rates corresponded to an increase in the incidence of local melanoma while mortality rates remained unchanged, the authors have attributed the rising incidence of melanoma to an increase in diagnostic scrutiny rather than an actual increase in the incidence of disease. This is likely to be due to increased UV exposure, however the number of skin biopsies now taking place has also risen. Over the last 25 years the reported incidence of malignant melanoma has increased. Malignant melanoma is the most serious form of skin cancer: it is responsible for around 80% of skin cancer deaths. 5 They are found almost exclusively on sun-exposed skin such as the neck, face and arms, and the incidence is linked with geographical location, being higher at latitudesreceiving more sun such as Australia. SCCs are caused by sunlight-induced mutations in the p53 tumour suppressor gene. SCCs account for a significant proportion of non-melanocytic skin cancer. 3 The exact nature of the wavelengths and exposure patterns involved in BCC carcinogenesis is still equivocal to a large degree, however recent studies demonstrate a correlation between ultraviolet B radiation (UV-B, 290–320 nm) and BCC risk. An Italian study has also highlighted a definite association between BCC development and recreational sun exposure during childhood and adolescence. Patients with these malignancies are usually fair-skinned and tend to burn rather than tan in sunlight. Approximately 90% of skin cancers are non-melanocytic, the vast majority of these are BCCs.īCCs are commonly known as rodent ulcers they usually arise in sun-exposed areas of the body and have a propensity to cause extensive local tissue damage. Exposure to ultraviolet radiation is recognized as a risk factor in all three malignancies. The three most common types of skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and malignant melanoma (MM). Any one of these effects of UVR may contribute to the induction of skin cancers by other agents such as viruses, X-rays or chemical carcinogens. 2 The immunosuppressive effect of UVR contributes to its carcinogenic activity. While UVB causes considerable DNA damage in the skin, UVA has only recently been shown to induce pyrimidine dimerizations and generate reactive oxygen and nitrogen species which damage DNA, proteins and lipids. Hence UV-C carries the most energy and is the most damaging to biological systems. 1 The wavelength of light is inversely proportional to its frequency and higher frequencies of light possess more energy. UV light can be further subdivided in terms of wavelength ‘long wave’ UV with a range of 320–400 nanometres (nm) is known as UV-A ‘medium wave’ UV with a range of 290–320 nm is known as UV-B and ‘short wave’ UV with a range of 100–290 nm is known as UV-C. The colour violet corresponds to the shortest wavelength in visible light and UV actually means ‘beyond violet’ (from the Latin ultra, meaning ‘beyond’). Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) occupies the space between visible light and X-rays on the electromagnetic spectrum. ![]() The tweak comes with 12 options to apply for managing different aspects about the Spotlight:ġ) Clear Search On Dismiss: it clears the field of the previous searching when you come back to the spotlight.Ģ) KeyBoard Shows On Tap Search: it shows the KeyBoard only when you tap on the field of searching.ģ) Cancel Button Only Exit KeyBoard: it dismisses the KeyBoard (and clears the text too). ![]() PersonalSpotLight tweak gives you the possibility to take the control over a lot of useful graphics, gestures and functional preferences!
