Once you have finished your RIG, make sure that before exporting your PNG sequences, each separate animation starts at the same position XY from 0 frame. I suggest adobe AfterEffectsor spriterPro. Note: motionContexts will be assessed in the order in which you have them registered.ĪddMotionContext_Linear (motion,motionCall,frames,luck) ◆ġ: Open your favorite software to make animations.

Now, coming back, I ran out of all of my 350 coins within five minutes. I had never run out of coins before, and could keep playing and enjoying. Coins regenerate every 30 seconds or so, and guess how many you get added to your total after that time. In my game each coin is worth 2, which is nice when you win a couple, but every time I drop 1 coin, it subtracts 2 from my total. It is almost required to watch an ad every few seconds just to get anything done. You have to collect prizes for boosts, keys for chests, puzzle pieces, chips for wheel spins, etc. Now, there is way too much going on in this game. Used to just drop coins and win more coins or win prizes for my collection. □ĭownloaded this game when it first came out, and it was a fun, chill, addicting game. I’m not sure what the end result was that they were hoping for but I see I’m not the only one that this is happening to. They’ve ruined a very popular and fun game. Without dozer dollar bonuses not working, it’s just constantly pushing coins and nothing else. No reason to drop bonuses on the sides, it just makes it pointless. Game circus needs to credit my game and fix whatever they broke when it updated. It’s sad because now I have to find something new and start all over. There’s just no fun left in the game now. When they updated the game it all quit working, prizes are automatically places on the sides so they fall off immediately. My favorite relaxing game has become so stressful that I’d rather just delete it and find something else. Won’t buy anymore either in fear of not receiving those either. I’m out more hours (over 20 hours now) and over $1212 bonus dollars. Sent them emails, nothing back, nothing credited to my game. I have wasted countless hours doing them only to end up not receiving the bonuses at all. I don’t know what happened but taking quizzes (getting 100%) and fully going through all the absolutely ridiculous surveys to earn dozer dollar and coins are NOT working. This used to be my favorite game to relax and just waste time with and I’ve been playing it for years. "Our SYNC 3 software platform was designed to be easy to update, so customers will have access to the latest and greatest features, functionality and security enhancement," said Ford Connected Vehicle and Services Executive Director Don Butler. Users who are contantly on the road will doubtlessly welcome this new development, particularly with the new Anti-Distracted Driving law currntly implemented nationalwide. Now, with the addition of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, smartphone inegration would be seamless and a natural process. Its 3rd generation-Sync 3-includes a smoother interface and navigation function. It can read messages and enables you to receive and make hands-free phone calls by way of voice-integration mechanism., which in effect, allows a less distracting driving experience. Likewise, surprisingly, the product can be updated through Wi-Fi, making the entire process seamless and convenient.įirstly, Sync is Ford's infotainment system that facilitates hands-free music and entertainment, as well as integration of the smartphone system. Sometimes it takes a day or two for this to be resolved.Ford unveiled the latest version (version 2.2) to their Sync 3 software, which comes with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. If you do not get the emails/messages, or you get a message that says activation is not available, then something is wrong on the Ford end. You might have to sign out of the app on the phone and log back in to get the data initially. It will take a few minutes for the app to populate info. You should get an email and/or message in the FordPass app that says activation is done. You should get a message on the Sync screen to authorize the vehicle. You should get an email and/or message in the FordPass app that says activation is pending. Open the app, log in, and activate your vehicle. Once your vehicle is added, log out of the app and terminate the app on the phone. Now go to the FordPass app, add your vehicle. Reboot the Sync system by shutting down the vehicle for 5 minutes, then start the vehicle, engine running. Perform a master reset on the Sync system. DO NOT add the vehicle to the app at this time. Without the vehicle in FordPass, install the app on the phone. This should force the TCU to a ‘waiting to authorize’ mode. To reset the FordPass TCU, remove the battery cable for 5 minutes then reconnect. This step is important to clear the cache on the FordPass end. It is best to do this the day before you try the rest of this, as this action needs to process through the Ford system. Delete the app on the phone to clear the app cache. So, in the US the following procedure works… Lots of people have issues with this, but usually can be solved. Since you have a 2019 Explorer, it probably came with the FordPass capability and the TCU as OEM. If the FordPass app will not connect, there is another issue, not the Sync version. And they can’t anyways.Ģ019 Explorer: What version of Sync was installed from the factory? Ford switched to Sync 3.2 by then…ĭowngrading will probably not solve the issue. So the only way to go back to the version of Sync I bought the vehicle at would be to take it to Ford and have them reflash the computer? Ru reminds Indelicato that he has access to those parts of himself even out of drag, as Ru is wont to do, and things seem to go fine. Being Thirsty helps Mark Indelicato get in touch with the more overtly femme part of himself, as well as the part that’s sexual and flirtatious. Mark Indelicato/Thirsty is up first in the hot seat, and things immediately get intensely personal as he reveals that he’s long struggled with members of the general public trying to out him before he had come to terms with his own sexuality. Ru announces that they’re all going off to get ready for their solo performances, but while that’s happening, we’re all going to get to watch some pretaped Tic Tac lunches. Chakra’s look says “more is more,” Poppy is still leaning on that “Everybody” slide, and Thirsty looks really beautiful and modern, but she always does, so that’s nothing new. When the three finalists enter the stage, it’s clear they’ve put everyone in gold for the evening, including the thus far missing Queens Supreme. I don’t have much to say about the whole parade, other than that I liked Donna Bellissima’s tiny “normalize kitten heels” sign, and I’m still not sure why they do Milli’s makeup like that. (And I mean loosely, because like half the songs in the world are about love and they picked three of the most random cuts.) To celebrate with the queens, the entire cast of Secret Celebrity has returned, from Fabulosity, who is still very obviously Loretta Devine, to the disgracefully robbed Chic-Li-Fay. He also seemingly got the most fan votes online, which makes sense given his long standing Backstreet fandom, but if it’s just a popularity contest, then what was the point of everything running up to this? Or is that a futile question, because that would suppose that there was a point to Secret Celebrity Drag Race, period?Īnyway, how did we get to Poppy Love’s big crowning moment? With more solo lip-sync performances, of course! Ru and her World of Wonder pals went back to the same old well for the celebrity finale, asking everyone to do a song loosely themed around the idea of love. is probably the most popular competitor overall, meaning he’ll garner the most post-event press coverage, and maybe that’s all that really matters. He clearly had something to offer that Ru and the judges wanted to award and I don’t doubt his respect for LGBTQ+ issues and culture, but ugh, did the straight dude have to win Secret Celebrity Drag Race? Poppy Love was fine, but she certainly wasn’t the best of the bunch overall this season. It doesn’t seem to be capturing the hearts of many Drag Race fans, and while AJ McLean will always have the Backstreet Army out supporting him in full force, it’s not like Secret Celebrity got anyone talking once - at least after the first week, when it became immediately and glaringly obvious that the “who are they?” premise didn’t work.Īnyway, all hail the first all-encompassing winner of Secret Celebrity Drag Race: A.J. In bridges he burned, Or the way that she died.The second season of RuPaul’s Secret Celebrity Drag Race has come to an end, and not a minute too soon.

Now that we have a file of the correct size available, we need to actually turn this into swap space.įirst, we need to lock down the permissions of the file so that only the users with root privileges can read the contents. Our file has been created with the correct amount of space set aside. We can verify that the correct amount of space was reserved by typing: Adjust this to meet the needs of your own server: Since the server in our example has 1G of RAM, we will create a 1G file in this guide. This command instantly creates a file of the specified size. The best way of creating a swap file is with the fallocate program. We will allocate a file of the swap size that we want called swapfile in our root (/) directory. Now that we know our available hard drive space, we can create a swap file on our filesystem. Another good rule of thumb is that anything over 4G of swap is probably unnecessary if you are just using it as a RAM fallback. Generally, an amount equal to or double the amount of RAM on your system is a good starting point. Your usage will probably be different.Īlthough there are many opinions about the appropriate size of a swap space, it really depends on your personal preferences and your application requirements. We have plenty of space available in this example (only 1.4G used). The device with / in the Mounted on column is our disk in this case. OutputFilesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on You can verify that there is no active swap using the free utility: If you don’t get back any output, this means your system does not have swap space available currently. We can see if the system has any configured swap by typing: It is possible to have multiple swap files or swap partitions, but generally one should be enough. Step 1 – Checking the System for Swap Informationīefore we begin, we can check if the system already has some swap space available. Overall, having swap space as a fallback for when your system’s RAM is depleted can be a good safety net against out-of-memory exceptions on systems with non-SSD storage available. The information written to disk will be significantly slower than information kept in RAM, but the operating system will prefer to keep running application data in memory and use swap for the older data. The swap space on the hard drive will be used mainly when there is no longer sufficient space in RAM to hold in-use application data. Basically, this gives you the ability to increase the amount of information that your server can keep in its working “memory”, with some caveats. Swap is an area on a hard drive that has been designated as a place where the operating system can temporarily store data that it can no longer hold in RAM. In this guide, we will cover how to add a swap file to an Ubuntu 18.04 server. One of the easiest way of guarding against out-of-memory errors in applications is to add some swap space to your server. A previous version of this tutorial was written by Justin Ellingwood Introduction Users can make a selection between Toy Camera and Super Vivid effects to avail desired results. Once you are ready with the basic guidelines, the Effects mode can provide you with amazing results for your social media photography.If you are going to use a DSLR camera for the very first time, this mode can help you to learn and understand camera operation. The Guide mode offers basic entry-level features to assists beginners. There are two interesting modes of operation, Effects, and Guide.The control buttons and dials are well-arranged so that beginners can find them with ease. It means this camera can accompany you for adventure tours without causing much weight on your kit bag. It has a retractable design that folds to smaller dimensions when not in use. Nikon D3400 is known for its decent design and lightweight finish.Details appear satisfactory but the only trouble is missing anti-aliasing filter. The camera sensor is capable enough to pick vibrant colours for images you can expect warmth and smoothness in a variety of conditions.If you are interested to capture moving objects, the 3D tracking ability can help you to work on slow-moving subjects but Nikon D3400 cannot satisfy you for fast-action photography needs.Tests reveal that it offers satisfactory results in bright light but as light decays, the performance also decays. Nikon D3400 works with Nikon’s Multi-CAM 1000 Phase detection autofocus sensor that ensures great focus with 11AF points that are arranged in diamond form.You can record voice with an inbuilt microphone as the external jack is missing. In case if you prefer to work on 720p then available frame rates are 50fps and 60fps. While considering the video quality, Nikon D3400 offers great results at 1920×1080 full HD setting where frame rate can be adjusted anywhere between 24p, 25p, 30p, 50p, and 60p.The shutter speed is also satisfactory with 30 sec – 1/4000 sec range where the flash sync speed is 1/200 sec. However, the great news is that night vision mode allows users to click black and white JPEG images with ISO rating 102,400.
When he designed Computer Modern, Knuth created individual font files for these sizes, each with stroke widths and spacing optimized for that particular size. This is because these older engines only support a fixed set of sizes - between 5 and 17 point. (Font) size substituted on input line 103. LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `OT1/cmr/m/n' in size not available If you are using the latex or pdflatex engines, you may get a warning similar to the following: Sets the current font size to 5cm with 5.5 centimeter leading. | LaTeX command | Equivalent switch | Output style | Remarks | The following table lists the commands you will need to access typical font shapes. Typefaces usually come in various styles and weights, such as _italic_ and **bold**. It contains serif, sans serif, and monospaced fonts, each available in several ( "w:Font") and ( "w:Font"). LaTeX commands generally refer to these with the shorthand **rm**, **sf**, and **tt** respectively.īy default, LaTeX uses ( "w:Computer Modern"), a family of typefaces designed by Donald Knuth for use with TeX. These families can generally be grouped into three main categories: ( "w:Serif"), ( "w:sans-serif"), and ( "w:Monospaced font"). Common examples include ( "w:Times New Roman"), ((typeface) "w:Courier (typeface)"), and ( "w:Helvetica"). There are hundreds - if not thousands - of ( "w:Typeface"), or font families. () includes more information and commands which unsupported in most TeX renderers developed for math notions, so I removed them from this text. Hello from SketchĪ great tool for bootstraping a Sketch plugin (as well as distributing it) is Sketch Plugin Manager, a.k.a skpm. They will work very similarly on Linux, and with few simple changes on Windows as well. One more thing, the following commands are written and tested on macOS. Our plugin will just print out a number of artboards and pages in a design, let's call it My Design Stats.īefore starting, let's make sure we have latest Node.js installed in our system. Let's try to look at Sketch, Adobe XD, and Figma ecosystems and build a very simple plugin for all of them. Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator also have plugin possibilities, but let's skip them for a while as web and app product designers tend to use them less and less.Their documentation and ecosystem is a pleasure to work with. Figma's pace in building community is unprecedented.Adobe XD is trying to catch up with adding more and more capabilities to their platform.Sketch app has pretty popular plugin ecosystem and a very active developer community for years.Packaging and distribution is usually done in a straightforward way within the respective platforms. Plugin developers usually need access to design data (layers, effects, symbols, and metadata), UI elements and dialogs, and HTTP call possibilities. All of these platforms expose JavaScript APIs. What you should know before we start:Īs a reference, I’ll be talking about our three plugins for Sketch, Adobe XD, and Figma - all of which environments allow similar capabilities. And as design tools keep changing so our plugins had to keep up.Īnd today I’d like to describe what we’ve learned so far so if you want to build a design tool plugin yourself you can do it faster. Writing plugins for undocumented formats and tools without plugin APIs was a very different reality than the documented internals of Sketch files that we have nowadays.Īlthough already in 2015, we have switched focus to Avocode as a standalone application, we still needed to build design tool plugins to help designers sync designs to our platform easily. Anyway, back in 2014 when React was not a thing, and most of the web designers used Photoshop, we tried to share their pains through. Remember it? (Depends how old are you, haha). Long before Avocode we have built the first ever Photoshop plugin CSS Hat. Avocode was actually born from Madebysource, a collective that authored dozens of plugins for designers and developers in the early days of modern web. well as the first ones on the market most likely. A little bit of history: We’ve been building design tool plugins since. This is an incredibly fast CPU, and it feels that way in action. Cinebench is, as always, our gold standard for one-size-fits-all multithreaded CPU testing-and Intel's extreme results in both Cinebench and Geekbench match up with our seat-of-the-pants observations of the i9-12900K. Usually, we'd be pointing at Geekbench 5 as a likely Intel-favoring outlier, but this time around Passmark is the odd one out. Seeing i9-12900K outperform the 5950X was a considerably larger surprise, though, since the 5950X has the same sixteen cores-all of which are high-performance cores with SMT enabled, compared to Intel's eight performance cores and eight efficiency cores. We weren't too surprised to see the i9-12900K beat the 12c/24t Ryzen 9 5900X-with DDR5 RAM and a four-core advantage, that was Intel's fight to win or lose. Passmark is the only benchmark we ran that still gave the nod to AMD's Ryzen 9 CPUs-and even there, AMD won only by a narrow margin. In addition to nearly doubling generation-on-generation performance from i9-11900K to i9-12900K, Intel beats the pants off the Ryzen 9 line in both Geekbench 5 and Cinebench R20 multithreaded tests. Advertisementįor the first time in several years, the story here isn't just whether or not Intel managed to one-up its own previous generation-Intel is actually beating AMD's best consumer CPU offerings, almost across the board. We tested Alder Lake on the latest Windows 11 below, but our Ryzen results are on Windows 10-this made certain to avoid AMD being penalized by the current Windows 11 regressions in 元 cache and Preferred Core selection, while giving Alder Lake the big.little architecture support it needs from Windows 11 itself. Unfortunately, Intel still requires a power premium to achieve those results despite its theoretically more efficient chip layout, Alder Lake consumes more power and runs hotter than Zen 3 does. And despite having the same number of cores and fewer overall threads, Intel for the first time in years beats AMD handily on almost all multithreaded benchmarks. The proof of the pudding, they say, is in the tasting-or in this case, the benchmarking. But there's still good reason for hybrid designs even on the desktop-die space remains sharply limited in CPUs, and you can fit more of the smaller "efficiency" cores into a given package size. By contrast, the i9-12900K offers 16 cores and only 24 threads-with eight "performance" cores featuring SMT and eight lower-performance "efficiency" cores with no SMT.Īlthough the world largely understands big.little design in mobile CPUs-where the value of having slow but efficient cores for non-latency-sensitive tasks means longer battery life and less waste heat-the value isn't as well-understood in desktop CPUs, where power and thermal budgets aren't such an obvious problem. AMD's flagship Ryzen 9 5950x is a traditional 16 core, 32 thread design, with all cores being "big" high-performance types with symmetric multithreading (SMT, also known as "hyperthreading"). We suspect this will be especially surprising to some, since Intel's newest desktop CPUs feature a hybrid " big.little" design similar to those found in ARM CPUs. After spending several days with Intel's newest consumer CPU designs, we have some surprising news: they're faster than AMD's latest Ryzens on both single-threaded and most multithreaded benchmarks. The tip comes from a 72-year-old Brooklyn Heights barber named Rocco Scali, who recalls cutting actor Lenny Montana’s hair just before the scene was filmed in the hotel’s lobby bar, according to this NY Times article. In fact, this pivotal scene was actually filmed in the Hotel St. Many argue that it was simply done in the Edison’s bar, and logistically it would make sense – except that nothing at the Edison ever looked like this. 7th & 8th.īrasi is then murdered by Sollozzo in an upscale restaurant…but where was this shot? There has been a lot of debate over this. …shot in the rear entrance to the Hotel Edison on West 46th Street btw. Uneasy with the possible introduction of drugs into his business world, Don Corleone sends Luca Brasi to meet with Sollozzo and pledge his loyalty in order to spy on him.

Department Store on Fifth Avenue at 51st Street.Īfter the Best & Co. We then join Michael Corleone and his girlfriend Kay Adams as they Christmas shop at the Best & Co. The interior of Genco Oil was reportedly built on the fourth floor of a warehouse nearby to 128 Mott Street (but not actually in the Mietz building). I have no idea how this was allowed to happen, but it’s pretty awful. …and most egregiously, the complete gutting of the ground floor facade. While the Renaissance Revival building is overall in good shape, some changes have been made over the years, including the removal of fire escapes… This was filmed in what was once the heart of Little Italy at 128 Mott Street, known as The Mietz Building.īuilt in 1892, the sprawling Mietz & Weiss Oil Engine Building has a wonderful ever-so-slight curve that follows the path of Mott Street: The wedding sequence was staged on the house’s palatial lawn, which I imagine was a major factor for why it was chosen:Īfter a quick jaunt to California involving a movie producer and a horse (to be covered someday by sister site Scouting LA), we return to New York and get our first look at Corleone’s business front, Genco Olive Oil, just as Sollozzo arrives for a sit-down. Our point of view here is toward toward the house… In reality, there are actually several houses at the end of the block that were cut off by the fake wall:Īs the wedding progresses, detectives show up to take license plate numbers. Still later, when Kay arrives at the house, we see a different angle including the guard booth. This is what the same angle looks like today:Īnother shot from later in the film offers a better look at the layout: These were all fake, set up at the end of Longfellow Avenue to give the Corleone residence the feeling of a walled compound. What happened to all the stone walls and the entrance gate? The house today is pretty much the same as it appears in the film, except for one detail… This is the Corleone residence today, located at 110 Longfellow Avenue in Staten Island. The Godfather opens at the wedding of Don Corleone’s only daughter Connie. What still remains? Let’s take a closer look. On March 29, 1971, The Godfather, considered by many to be one of the greatest films ever made, began principal photography in New York City.īecause the film is a period piece, The Godfather actually presents a fascinating record of what 1940s-era New York City locations still existed in the early-1970s.
