Kindle oasis vs paperwhite 201910/2/2023 ![]() While the Oasis has more features, it’s worth asking yourself if those features are worth $120 to you. Also, keep in mind the value propositions in play here. We always encourage shoppers to keep an eye out for bargains, which typically appear during Prime Day deals, but it’s fair to say you’re always going to find the Paperwhite for a lot less than the Oasis. The Kindle Paperwhite is quite a lot cheaper at $130. Winner: Kindle Oasis Price and availabilityĪt the time of writing, the Kindle Oasis comes with a price tag starting at $250. You’ll be able to read for others without worrying about the screen robbing you of your sleep. We think the only other truly notable features are the page turn buttons on Oasis, which can help ease readers who are wary about using an e-reader, and the blue-light filter. For the users willing to pay a bit more, try upgrading either device to receive cellular and Wi-Fi services. Neither of these devices comes with speakers or a headphone port However, both have Bluetooth capabilities and can support streaming Audible audiobooks to a separate Bluetooth speaker or headphones. Winner: Tie Special features Brenda Stolyar/Digital Trends We would expect software updates to be on the same schedule for both devices. They both come with either 8GB or 32GB of storage and, while there’s no room for expansion via MicroSD card, you do get free cloud storage for all your Amazon content. That means both have features like Whispersync, which lets you keep your place across devices, and both come with optional ads on the lock screen, which lowers the price. The software on the Kindle Oasis and Kindle Paperwhite is largely identical there are just a few extra options with the Oasis. Winner: Kindle Oasis Software and updates Steven Winkelman/Digital Trends However, with a touch more smoothness, the Oasis wins here. With weeks of battery life, you’ll not need to worry about longevity with any Kindle. The Paperwhite, on the other hand, took three hours and four hours, respectively, to do the same. ![]() However, the Oasis wins back some goodwill, with it taking just two hours to fully charge from a 5W charger and around three hours from a computer USB port. Both, unfortunately, it relies on a Micro USB port for charging - and this particularly stings on the $250 Oasis. However, it stands to reason that the Oasis must have a bigger battery, since it has a bigger display to power. There’s no stated battery capacity, as Amazon prefers to describe battery life for both Kindles as up to six weeks from a single charge based on half an hour of reading a day. Side-by-side, the Kindle Oasis is a touch faster to turn pages and respond to touches a little faster, so it seems likely that it has a little extra processing power under the hood. Winner: Kindle Oasis Performance, battery life, and charging Brenda Stolyar/Digital TrendsĪmazon doesn’t specify processors and RAM in its e-book readers, but the Kindle Oasis and the Kindle Paperwhite were both responsive and slick to navigate. Both devices support automatic brightness, but we found that it worked a lot better with the Oasis, whereas we often had to manually adjust the Paperwhite. While both devices use LEDs to light up the screen, the Oasis also boasts more LEDs than the Paperwhite, so it offers more lighting levels and better uniformity around the screen. But, most importantly in our book, only the Oasis allows you to filter out blue light at night if you want to, making nighttime reading a more pleasurable experience. ![]() For a start, the Oasis has a bigger 7-inch screen, while the Paperwhite has a 6-inch display. While the Oasis and Paperwhite both have sharp screens rated at 300 pixels per inch, there are some important differences. The Oasis comes in a choice of graphite or champagne gold, but the Paperwhite turns the tables with a selection of black, sage, plum, or twilight blue.īoth e-book readers have an IPX8 rating, which means splashes and rain are nothing to worry about in fact, they’re protected against immersion in up to 6.5 feet of fresh water for up to an hour.īut the new Oasis has really shown its quality where the display is concerned. While the Oasis boasts a svelte aluminum body, with a thicker section at one side that houses physical turn page buttons, the Paperwhite is matte plastic, with chunkier bezels around the smaller screen and no physical turn page buttons. There’s a big difference between the Oasis and Paperwhite in the looks department.

Activity hero10/2/2023 Of the bill, Ryan Walker, Acting Executive Director of Heritage Action, said, “ While the quality of higher education in the United States has diminished, the cost of going to college has skyrocketed. ![]() That is why I'm proud to work with my good friend Mike Lee in introducing this critical first step toward that goal. It's time to start getting the feds out of the college business, and put states and students back in charge. It's time for schools to have skin in the game for how much debt they encourage young Americans to rack up. The more involved the federal bureaucracy has become with education, the worse and more expensive things have gotten.Įnough. Chip Roy said, “ Higher "education" in America has largely become a crony government-supported credentialing racket more interested in political indoctrination than pursuing truth or preparing Americans for the workforce. It would transform our educational landscape and allow students to tailor their unique learning journey and gain the skills needed to excel in today's dynamic economy. The HERO Act aims to alleviate the ever-increasing financial burden required of students pursuing their educational goals by capping loans that exacerbate costs. Lee said, “ Too often, our bright young minds needlessly face the unfair choice of either drowning in debt or sacrificing their dreams of higher education. This transparency provides students with the necessary information to make informed decisions about which institutions to attend. This flexibility allows states to determine clock hour and minimum program length requirements, making short-term workforce development programs and nontraditional educational providers eligible for federal student aid.Īdditionally, the HERO Act mandates higher education institutions participating in federal student loan programs to publish relevant outcome information in an easily accessible format. Moreover, the bill empowers states to establish alternative accreditation systems that can accredit any postsecondary institution offering programs applicable to degrees, credentials, or professional certifications. Under this requirement, universities will be rewarded for each Pell Grant graduate but will also be obliged to repay a percentage of the total loans issued, with consideration for loan default rates and the average national unemployment rate. ![]() The HERO Act aims to simplify federal student loans by offering a single option and introduces a new financial "skin-in-the-game" requirement for universities. Chip Roy (R-TX) sponsored the HERO Act in the House of Representatives. Mike Lee (R-UT) introduced the Higher Education Reform and Opportunity (HERO) Act, a bill that brings transparency, accountability, and competition to higher education. Do carrots grow in cold weather10/2/2023 ![]() These are the times of the year when a frost is likely to occur.įor example, where I live in Wisconsin the April nighttime low temperatures can be anywhere from 20 degrees to 50 degrees F. If you plant a tomato seedling, which is not frost tolerant, too early in spring and then your garden gets hits by a frost one night, your plant will likely be killed or severely damaged.ĭuring spring and fall, depending on where you garden, and especially if you garden in a northern climate like mine in zone 5, the nighttime temperatures can fluctuate wildly. You need to be very familiar with which vegetables fall into each category so you can make sure you’re planting the right vegetable at the right time in the season for it to grow and thrive (and not die!). Well, there are two big categories of vegetable plants – the ones that can survive a frost in the garden ( frost tolerant vegetables) and the ones that will get killed by frost ( non-frost tolerant vegetables). This is why plants will often look wilted on the morning after a frost. Plants cells are filled with water, so as the temperature hovers around freezing the water turns to ice and bursts the cell walls. That’s when the temperature at night drops below 28 degrees F. ![]() There’s also what’s known as a hard or killing frost which is more severe. A freeze or frost is when the nighttime temperature is between 28-32 degrees F. When you know and understand the concept of frost tolerant vegetables you can save yourself from the very traumatic experience of going out to your garden to find a bed full of dead plants.įirst, let’s define frost so we’re all on the same page.

After weeks of testing, researching, and comparing, I settled on a winner - in my opinion, Dashlane is better than LastPass in many ways. I decided to do a full comparison of Dashlane and LastPass, testing each one’s password management features, additional tools, ease of use, plans, pricing, and customer support. On the other hand, LastPass is slightly better at auto-filling web forms, has more account recovery options, is a bit easier to use, and provides more helpful in-app tutorials. ![]() Dashlane is also the only password manager to provide a virtual private network (VPN), and it has recently started supporting passkeys, cutting-edge new tech that could replace passwords altogether. Dashlane has more high-security tools, including the most advanced dark web monitoring system available. However, Dashlane and LastPass differ in some key areas. They also both offer secure password sharing and intuitive mobile apps. Both are secure, easy to use, and include an impressive range of features - you can’t go wrong with either one.īoth have all the features I expect to see in a premium password manager in 2023, including 256-bit AES encryption, password generation, auto-save and auto-fill, and two-factor authentication (2FA). Out of 50+ password managers, Dashlane and LastPass consistently rank in the top 5 on our top 10 list. It’s great value, and it comes with a 30-day free trial and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Dashlane has high-security practices, live dark web monitoring, unlimited password sharing, and a surprisingly good VPN. ![]()
Torchlight 2 mods10/2/2023 ![]() That's better than can be said for a lot of mods, if you ask me. We have concrete reason to be optimistic, though. That said, I also hope it means, you know, they'll actually get it done - and not swerve into the ditch of dysfunction that is mod purgatory. I hope that means they're punching their keyboards and hurling very insults words at one another. So SynergiesMOD is quite the thing, and the remainder of its planned content is apparently in "aggressive" development. And honestly, look at what they've already achieved - sans any sort of official mod tools, no less. I have no idea whether or not these people can actually pull it off, but more power to them.

Revelers looking to relax by the pool, which takes the center of the rooftop, could sip on a boozy watermelon lemonade while taking bites of wagyu sliders and pea hummus. The southern stretch of the space feels more like a nightclub, with low-flung tables and and pricey cocktails (Ace of Spade bottles run a cool $1K, for the ballers out there). Think hamachi crudo, lobster toast, chopped chicken salad, and grilled prawns, with some amazing views to boot. The far corner of the rooftop contains a decent number of dinner tables, where they’ll have full service. With clear cut vistas looking out to Hollywood and beyond, it’s clearly outfitted to become an evening party space, what with speakers galore, two DJ booths, and bottle service.
