What Are Entity-Relationship Diagrams? In industry-standard ER diagrams, rectangles or squares represent entities, which are tables that hold specific information in a database. Diamonds represent relationships, which are the interactions between the entities. Ovals represent attributes, or data that describes an entity. Although entity-relationship diagrams may look complicated, these diagrams help knowledgeable users understand database structures at a high level without accompanying details. Database designers use ER diagrams to model the relationships between database entities in a clear format....

When soot embeds itself in snow and ice, it absorbs sunlight, making Earth’s nether regions less brilliantly reflective. Less sunlight gets reflected out into space and more energy stays behind, warming the oceans and land. Then the snow begins to melt, exposing even more carbon and intensifying the effect. That would help account for the greater warming at the poles, where average temperatures have risen 2.5 degrees Celsius in the past 50 years, compared to just over a quarter degree overall....

Soon, though, it appears Epic Games is finally ready to say more about an Unreal Tournament sequel, or at least what they have in store for the future of the franchise. In fact, UT fans should have more information about the franchise by this time Thursday afternoon. The purported Unreal Tournament details will apparently be included as part of Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 4 development community event, which is slated for this coming Thursday at 2pm EST....

Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has officially apologized to Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot about The Division 2 fraud accounts surpassing 70% on the Epic Games Store due to sophisticated hacking. This information recently surfaced due to the ongoing legal battle between Apple and Epic in which an email thread between Epic and Ubisoft was leaked.

The donation is the most significant gift in the history of the Conservancy, as stated by executive director Carl Silverstein.

According to a new report by Bloomberg, Epic has now submitted a complaint about Apple to the United Kingdom’s antitrust tribunal. Epic’s Battle With Apple It argues that Apple’s decision to boot Fortnite from the App Store in 2020 was unlawful.

Fans have known for some time that Jurassic World Evolution would be the Epic Games Store free game for December 31. Shortly after the promotion started, a list of Epic Games Store free games leaked online. And now with Jurassic World Evolution’s confirmation, it’s clear that the leak was completely legitimate.

Original story follows. Epic Games Store is promoting its ongoing Epic Mega Sale through a special mystery games promotion where it gives users a free new game every week, but keeps the next week’s free game a secret. The Epic Games Store free mystery games have been fairly high profile this year, with Borderlands 3 serving as the first free mystery game and BioShock: The Collection being the current free game....

The lawsuit has already had its fair share of oddities, including leaking Fortnite’s upcoming crossovers. While most trials as of late have been held over Zoom due to the pandemic, this one in particular is being conducted in person with limited masked participants who have mics so members of the press and the companies’ legal teams can listen in.

RELATED: 90s Saturday Morning Cartoons That Were Darker Than You Remember Even the original Cartoon Network shows, the Cartoon Cartoons, were capable of a darker episode every once in a while. Sometimes it was obvious, like with Courage the Cowardly Dog, but other times it flew right over the heads of most young viewers. Rewatching those episodes as an adult can therefore be pretty shocking. 6 Dexter’s Laboratory: “The Laughing” Dexter’s Laboratory has more than a few episodes with a creepy tone to them....

Here are the player ratings for the game: Chelsea Thibaut Courtois – 6/10 The Belgian made a great save after a stinging Mirallas shot in the first half but couldn’t do much for both Everton goals. Branislav Ivanovic – 5/10 Still Chelsea’s weakest link at the back. Beaten for pace on many occasions and caught out of position by Barkley throughout the game. Could be on his way in the summer if he doesn’t improve....

It has been a comprehensive season for last season’s strugglers, with almost every player contributing to the team’s success. The team has had their share of ups and downs, though. Like every title winning campaign, this season too was shaped by some important matches.

For many people, the PFA awards given out at the end of the season are a joke. Their reasoning behind this is that only players from winning teams stand any chance of winning those awards, while excellent performers from less successful teams are never quite able to make the cut as easily as big-name players from big clubs. At Sportskeeda, we believe that everyone who takes the pitch in the Premier League is already a success story....

It’s a timely sentiment. Exactly 100 years ago, we Brits embraced everlasting friendship with our closest neighbor and oldest enemy. No more squabbling over colonies, threats of war, cartoons portraying an elderly Queen Victoria baring her bum to the French. Instead it would be Entente Cordiale. And it’s worked. Our pols may squabble but France we adore. Every summer, like 13 million of our countrymen, my family heads for the nation’s favorite holiday destination–France....

The four-day work week is not just key to better employee satisfaction and increased business productivity, it could be the solution many companies are searching for to get employees back into the office post-pandemic, as working from home has become commonplace. A shorter week doesn’t only make us healthier and happier; I have seen how it can make businesses more successful. Most workers are suffering from burnout, which has sometimes become inseparable from our working lives....

The suspected limitation comes from a gaming trope that has become a common tool for hiding loading times by requiring players to slip through a tight space, something that the PS5 promises to remove as games move onto Next-Gen technology. One section in the Unreal Engine 5 demo has some fans convinced that this is what they are seeing in a scene that pulls the camera in to watch the main character shuffle through a small opening....

Posted online by Twitter user jovamunja, who says it was sent to them, the list has so far been 100% accurate. The Epic Games Store free games list leaked Cities: Skylines, Oddworld: New n Tasty, The Long Dark, Defense Grid: The Awakening, and now Alien: Isolation, which is the free Epic Games Store game for December 21. Going 5 for 5 means that the rest of the leaked Epic Games Store free games list is likely accurate, and so fans should know what games to look forward to next....

One could argue that since the Epic Games Store free games are completely free, it doesn’t incentivize Epic to give away as high quality games as PS Plus or Xbox Live Gold. However, Microsoft has more or less abandoned Xbox Live Gold in favor of adding as many games to Xbox Game Pass possible, so Epic Games Store may have XBL beat, but it would be hard to make the argument that it outmatches the free PS Plus games....

Often, there are no signs an epididymal cyst is forming. But once one has, you may notice a small, water balloon-like mass and experience tenderness and swelling of the testicle, as well as other symptoms. Epididymal cysts usually don’t require treatment, but it’s important to have any growths examined by a healthcare provider just in case something more serious may be at play, such as a tumor or hernia....
