BIOS

BIOS, computing, stands for Basic Input/Output System. The BIOS is a computer program embedded on a chip on a computer's motherboard that recognizes and controls various devices that make up the computer. The purpose of the BIOS is to make sure all the things plugged into the computer can work properly. It brings life to the computer, and the term is a pun on the Greek word , bios meaning "life".
"Booting", sometimes called "Booting up" is the process that the computer completes to get it ready to use when it is first turned on. When the computer turns on, the BIOS starts up and performs a Power-On Self Test (POST). During the POST, the BIOS will check various devices in the computer like the computer processor, memory, the video card and others to make sure they are present and functioning. Once the POST has completed successfully, the BIOS looks for an operating system to load, which is usually located on the computer's hard drive. When it finds one, it starts to load it. At this point, the operating system takes over control of the system.
Overclocking
Some people try to configure their computer to run faster than it was designed to do. This is called "overclocking". Since the BIOS controls the computer processor, entering the BIOS setup screen while it is booting up gives people access to advanced computer settings. For most computers, pressing the delete or F12 button while the computer is booting up will bring up the BIOS setup screen. There are many ways a computer can be overclocked to run faster, but most involve simply turning up the speed of the computer processor. Doing this will usually make your computer run much hotter, though, and can sometimes break your computer, which is why overclocking will usually void your computer's warranty. Only people who are computer hardware experts should attempt to overclock their computers.

Thompson (band)

Thompson is a Croatian ethno band, founded by Marko Perkovic aka "Thompson", often thought of as the same as the band itself. "Thompson" is Perkovic's stage name. He is the songwriter and lead vocalist. The members of the band, aside from him, are Tomislav Mandaric, Ivan Ivankovic, Duje Ivic, and Ivica Bilic Ike.
The band name originates from the Thompson submachine gun, a nickname given to Perkovic while he fought in the Croatian War of Independence. Although mostly formed in Cavoglave, Thompson is currently based in Zagreb. Thompson came to be popular during the Croatian war in 1991, with the release of the first single "Bojna Cavoglave", which is about the Croatian participation in the Yugoslav Wars and was included in the compilation album Rock za Hrvatsku. This song, with slightly different lyrics, named "Branitelji Sarajeva", was sung by the BiH Army during the Siege of Sarajevo (Sarajevo zaboravit nece nikada). During the 1990s Thompson became popular in Croatia with the release of the first album Moli mala in 1992. They later became popular again with the hit "Prijatelji" in 1998.
In 2002, Thompson started their first major tour to promote the album E, moj narode. This tour continued on and off until 2005, and included concerts at the Sydney Entertainment Centre and Melbourne's Vodafone Arena. In May 2005, the album was declared a Diamond Record with more than 60,000 copies sold. Touring continued in 2006 with Bilo jednom u Hrvatskoj, again performing internationally with concerts in Germany, Sweden, Australia, Canada, and the United States.
Thompson features annually at the Homeland Victory celebrations in their hometown of Cavoglave. These performances are attended by as many as 60,000 to 100,000 viewers, and feature Croatian singers like Mate Bulic, Drazen Zecic, Ivan Mikulic, and Baruni. The band has became controversial for its alleged praise of the World War Two Nazi-affiliated Ustase regime in their songs and concerts.

Monad (functional programming)

Monads are a way of organizing code in functional programming languages. They provide a structure for handling complex operations that involve multiple steps or may fail at some point.
In simpler terms, a Monad is like a box that holds some value or computation. You can use certain operations, like 'bind' or 'map', to extract the value from the box, modify it, or put it into another box.00
One of the benefits of using Monads is that they can help you write more readable and maintainable code, by separating the concerns of handling errors, side effects, and pure computations.
Some common examples of Monads in functional programming languages include the Maybe Monad for handling null values or errors, the List Monad for dealing with collections, and the IO Monad for working with input/output operations.

Anabaena

Anabena is a genus that encompasses plankton species. They fall under a type of bacteria called cyanobacteria. They have the ability to perform photosynthesis, as well as the ability to convert nitrogen in the air to ammonia, in water. They form mutually beneficial relationships, called symbiotic relationships with some plants. Anabena can make neurotoxins. It protects the plants from being eaten by wildlife. However, some species of Anabena have been used as a natural fertilizer in rice fields.
Genome
A study in 1999 has found the complete genome of Anabena (all of the DNA material). It is 7.2 million base pairs long. Anabena species have been used in research which focused on nitrogen fixation, DNA repair and primitive vision pigments.

Top Gear: Stunt School Revolution

Top Gear: Stunt School Revolution is a video game in the style of the TV show Top Gear, developed by BBC Worldwide Ltd. and Supersonic Software and published by BBC Worldwide Ltd. on June 14, 2012 on iOS, October 7, 2012 on Android and December 18, 2014 on Microsoft Windows and Windows Mobile. It is a sequel to the 2010 game Top Gear: Stunt School.
In 2018, together with Top Gear: Drift Legends, Top Gear: Extreme Parking, Top Gear: Caravan Crush and other games from BBC Worldwide Ltd. the game was removed from Google Play and App Store, and soon it stopped working at all on some Android and iOS devices.
Reception
Top Gear: Stunt School Revolution received mixed reviews from critics according to the aggregator website Metacritic. Critic David Ruddock from the Android Police website compares SSR with "the same bad hairstyle of Jeremy Clarkson", and also calls it "an unabashed pile of feces", noting that the management in it is terrible, some tricks are too simple, and some are too complicated. He also notes that trying a trick "trying a trick eats up a pass, which prevents you from playing the game for hours on end (unless you pay for additional passes), which can lead to an aneurysm, ulcer, or other stress-related illness," and that the usefulness of some parts of the car upgrade is inexplicable. Of the advantages, he notes the graphics, which, in his opinion, "is not bad for a modern mobile game."
