(*** Note: This is a problem if there are GS applications that need to see Command-Shift- keystrokes. This is only necessary when the Apple ITGS window is in the front and not paused. This was necessary because many Apple IT and ITGS programs expect to receive key sequences such as "Command-Q". For instance, to use the QuitJllenu item instead of typing Command-Q, you need to type Command-Shift-Q. To use a Command key for a menu item, combine the Command key with the Shift key.

"Get Info" on the Gus application icon and crank it up. Apple IIGS Memory Size The Apple ITGS memory size is determined by the size of the Gus application size. The Gus window works across multiple monitors and in any screen depth, although you will get the best performance in 256-color mode with the window entirely on a 256-color screen. Gus runs in a standard Macintosh window and is System 7 -savvy as you would expect of any Macintosh application. Just put the disk image file in the same folder as Gus, launch Gus and you're booting. Gus boots from Disk Copy "disk images" or Apple IT Shrinklt-compressed "disk images". Most of the graphics modes perform extremely fast updates that is, most graphics on Gus are substantially faster than the Apple lle card. The color graphics modes for Hi-Res and Double Hi-Res are rendered using color-bleeding and match the output provided by the Apple lie card for the Macintosh LC. As for video modes, we provide: 40 column and 80 column text with all the appropriate background and text colors, Hi-Res in both B&W or Color, Double Hi-Res in both B&W or Color, Lo-Res, Double Lo-Res, Super Hi-Res 320, Super Hi-Res 640, all the "mixed" graphics and text modes, and even Super Hi-Res fill-mode. There is also a simple architecture to allow us to accelerate portions of the GS ROM should we find this necessary we have only needed to accelerate some absolutely key areas, such as IIGS Toolbox dispatching.

The constant 29.97 fps D2V file DGIndex creates, in contrast, presents AviSynth with a data stream in a format it understands and can work with. TDecimate might be able to theoretically scan the video stream and remove the duplicate images, but AviSynth doesn’t understand what the frame rate of the MakeMKV-derived source is supposed to be in the first place. This continues through Frame 329, but the output synchronizes again at Frame 330. Sisko’s mouth position in Frame 328 of the MakeMKV source is different than his mouth position in Frame 328 of the D2V source. In the D2V-derived file, Frame 327 is an interlaced frame containing data from the frame before (the two admirals sitting) and the frame to come (Sisko talking). In the MakeMKV file, Frame 327 is a shot of Sisko. Please ignore Sisko’s forehead tumor, he’s sensitive about it. Believe it or not, the frame on the right is the frame we want to process to unwind the frame rate properly. MakeMKV frame on the left, DVD Decrypter + DGIndex frame on the right. I can’t embed the slider, so I’ll also embed a screenshot below: Here’s Frame 327 from a 29.97 fps D2V-derived file broken down into its constituent frames, versus a Frame 327 from a MakeMKV-derived source. That doesn’t mean frame output between the two is always identical, however. A MakeMKV file and a D2V-created file at 29.97 fps track each other frame for frame, meaning Frame 500 from MakeMKV source contains the same moment in time as Frame 500 from the D2V-derived source. Here’s how I know that’s true: By default, the output from a D2V-derived file is 29.97 fps, unless you change it in some way. 23.976 fps is one pattern, 29.97 fps is another. Within the source, there are two types of content patterns encoded two different ways. ![]() MakeMKV-created footage only returns to the standard 3:2 format during scenes that were expected to play back at 29.97 fps. Internally, the frame rate of the MakeMKV-encoded file remains 29.97 fps. Instead of 3:2, it contained entirely progressive frames encoded in the following pattern: 1-2-3-4-4 (frame 4 repeats) or 1-2-3-4-5-5 (frame 5 repeats). The MakeMKV-created file contained a very different frame sequence. The first point I want to make is that there is a difference between what you see in a DVD stream when you play the file back - even if you go frame by frame - and the actual frame sequences stored on disk.Īll of the content written to an NTSC DVD intended for playback in a DVD player is “conceptually interlaced”, to borrow a term from HomeTheaterHiFi. There are aspects to this situation that I am still piecing together, so I apologize if I’m a little vague in places. But the problem goes a little deeper than that. This destroys any chance of synchronizing audio. Thus, AviSynth forces MakeMKV-derived output into a non-standard 24.6 fps rate in an attempt to harmonize the two. As from October, 2014 MakeMKV, MyBD and AnyDVD (AnyDVD is like a driver for decrypt purposes only) are able to decrypt Blu-ray disc protection as being are freeware applications.To be clear: Much of the reason why you can’t use a MakeMKV file in this process without hosing your motion is that MakeMKV creates variable frame rate files when used to archive an episode of Deep Space Nine, and AviSynth is not designed to edit variable frame rate files. Remaining existing US software have disabled the decrypt / unencrypt / de-lock feature that allows bypass the Blu-ray disc protections. Software tagged as "no longer available" is due to New York federal court by AACS group legal action in later March, 2014. ![]() 1.1 System support/minimum-requirementsĪpplications System support/minimum-requirements Blu-ray ripperġ0 MB for the program files, 30 GB recommended per disc īeta versions are free, but must be renewed every 60 days. ![]() Similar changes can be expected with further rises in global temperature.Įssentially, the lower the rise in global temperature above pre-industrial levels, the lower the risks to human societies and natural ecosystems. The 0.5☌ rise in global temperatures that we have experienced in the past 50 years has contributed to shifts in the distribution of plant and animal species, decreases in crop yields and more frequent wildfires. ![]() Climate change is projected to be a poverty multiplier, which means that its impacts are expected to make the poor poorer and the total number of people living in poverty greater. The impacts of any additional warming would also include stronger melting of ice sheets and glaciers, as well as increased sea level rise, which would continue long after the stabilization of atmospheric CO 2 concentrations.Ĭhange in climate means and extremes have knock-on effects for the societies and ecosystems living on the planet. In addition, some regions, such as the Mediterranean, are projected to become drier at 2☌ versus 1.5☌ of global warming. It would also lead to an increase in heavy rainfall events in some regions, particularly in the high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere, potentially raising the risk of flooding. Reaching 2☌ instead of 1.5☌ of global warming would lead to substantial warming of extreme hot days in all land regions. This would be the case even if the global warming is held at 1.5☌, just half a degree above where we are now, and would be further amplified at 2☌ of global warming. This means that some parts of the world have already experienced temperatures greater than 1.5☌ above pre-industrial levels.Įxtra warming on top of the approximately 1☌ we have seen so far would amplify the risks and associated impacts, with implications for the world and its inhabitants. This is due to self-amplifying mechanisms, for instance due to snow and ice melt reducing the reflectivity of solar radiation at the surface, or soil drying leading to less evaporative cooling in the interior of continents. ![]() Temperatures are not changing at the same speed everywhere, however: warming is strongest on continents and is particularly strong in the Arctic in the cold season and in mid-latitude regions in the warm season. This estimate of the increase in global temperature is the average of many thousands of temperature measurements taken over the world’s land and oceans. Human activity has warmed the world by about 1☌ since pre-industrial times, and the impacts of this warming have already been felt in many parts of the world. The size and duration of an overshoot will also affect future impacts. The consequences of temporarily overshooting 1.5☌ of warming and returning to this level later in the century, for example, could be larger than if temperature stabilizes below 1.5☌. Limiting warming to 1.5☌ rather than 2☌ can help reduce these risks, but the impacts the world experiences will depend on the specific greenhouse gas emissions ‘pathway’ taken. An average warming of 1.5☌ across the whole globe raises the risk of heatwaves and heavy rainfall events, amongst many other potential impacts. However, they are not spread uniformly across the globe, and different parts of the world experience impacts differently. Summary : The impacts of climate change are being felt in every inhabited continent and in the oceans. Zougmoré (Burkina Faso, Mali)įAQ 3.1: What are the Impacts of 1.5☌ and 2☌ of Warming? ![]() Richard Wartenburger (Switzerland, Germany).Annette Hirsch (Switzerland, Australia).Tania Guillén Bolaños (Germany, Nicaragua).Anjani Ganase (Australia, Trinidad & Tobago). ![]() Oh yeah, that balance continues well into the taste, but the heft behind it all drives it forward. I'm picking up on aromas of caramel malt, pithy grapefruit, mango, spruce, earthy/woody hops, and sweet orange I love when an imperial IPA is not just a straight up hop attack you can detect the malt balance of this one from the first whiff. Pours a hazy orange gold with 3 fingers of dense white head that very slowly fades to a cap and leaves nice lacing Oh well, I was happy to run into this one at Total Wine. Ever since they expanded their distro my local store has only been carrying the same 5 or so beers from them and not getting any new ones in even for a limited time. Well, it's been quite some time since I've found any new 3 Floyds beers to review. ![]() Glad I was able to try it, and if this was the first beer from 3 Floyd’s that I have had I would probably be all over it, but it’s a pretty average beer from them and wouldn’t go out of my way to have it again unless it was really fresh. The hop character, is pleasant but the lactose and the heavier malt character combine to throw this beer off balance in my opinion. Overall: Another good beer from 3 Floyd’s, but I have certainly had better from them. Ultimately its still fairly smooth and the 8.6% abv is well hidden but whether it’s the character of the beer or the fact that it has been in the fridge a little too long it has a feel I dislike. Pine and resin are present with some grapefruit and orange, bitterness is fairly well balanced by the malty sweetness, but the malty sweetness is a bit overwhelming making me think this beer is less than fresh.į: This IPA is almost chewy and is just very full and a bit too much for my liking. T: Bitter hops flare up in the beginning and are a bit overwhelming with little to no support from everything else. Nose is pleasant but nothing to write home about Definite dank smell along with some pine and resin that are present with the caramel hops. Other citrus notes of grapefruit and orange rind are present, but certainly more bitter than juicy and sweet. S: Complex nose with notes of melon and tangerine. Translucent with some sediment floating at the bottom of the glass, but not completely opaque like some of the haze bombs. Ī: Pours a golden orang color with roughly two fingers of white foam, nice lacing as the foam begins to dissipate. Jul 18, 2021Įnjoyed in a 16oz snifter on 7/28/21, canned on. For what they were aiming for, I suppose they got it right, however, not for me. I don’t like lactose in IPA and this one is my fault for not reading the info on the can before buying it. Too sweet overall with a boozy finish that makes this a bit of a chore to drink. The carbonation was moderate to easy going. Nevertheless, this doesn’t quite feel like enough to counteract the cloying lactose sweetness.įull bodied with a frothy, soft and creamy mouthfeel. Tempered somewhat by a resiny bitterness as well as grassy and piney flavors. Very sweet with milky lactose creaminess and sweet alcohol spices. Loads of juicy and big fruity hops flavors evoking notes of mango, papaya, passion fruit and guava. And then there is that lactose aroma, projecting its milky sweetness on the nose. Juicy aromas of tropical fruit, including mango, papaya, guava and passion fruit amidst a malt base that evokes honey and caramel. A thumb length creamy head shows good retention and lacing. ![]() The lactose sugar is present, but subtle. The citrus flavors are insane, and the malt adds a wonderful balance. Overall, this is probably the best beer I've had from 3F. Soft and creamy, yet has a nice juicy quality to it. The feel is medium-full bodied with lower carbonation. Like the aroma, very grainy with lots of caramel and lactose sweetness. Very grainy, with lots of caramel malts on the back. There's a touch of pineapple in there as well. Loads of grapefruit and clementine oranges and tangerines with just a hint of lemon drop candy. Good head retention and leaves a nice crown of lacing at the top of the glass. Pours a cloudy amber color with 2 fingers of creamy off-white head. ![]() This is a secondary unfortunately, but an extreme fun option. The most infamous skill for Assassins is Multi-Block, which allows them to make two stabs with one action. They are rather costly for their very specific skillset and low AV, and though a very fun and thematic positional, they are mostly optional.ĭodge is a perfect first skill for them. What they are indisputably good at is removing anything with low armour and annoying skills like Dodge, but Dark Elves are generally strong against those kind of players anyway. ‘Sins did get a boost in BB20 with an extra point of MA, but the Shadowing skill got a totally unneeded nerf. Block and Sure Hands are good options afterward.ĭark Elves by many other rosters this would be an auto-take, but Dark Elves have so many good positionals that Assassins find themselves in their shadow somewhat. Ultimately Runners become a matter of preference and can be selected either when their cost works out well for your team build, or when you start going beyond eleven players.ĭodge is a great first skill choice if you don’t need Leader. On the other hand, AV8+ is a liability when you are forced to deploy them defensively, and Dark Elves lack neither strong MA7 ball carriers nor any real need for a passing game. On the one hand, MA7, access to Passing skills on Normals (Leader), a Dump-Off skill that now triggers on Blitz nomination, and the only player on the team with half decent Passing Ability, and they have some clear upsides. Runners are an interesting piece that are a little divisive as to their merits. Beyond that, Tackle and Strip Ball again enhance their role, while Sidestep and Diving Tackle also have strong synergies, with Sidestep being particularly helpful to avoid getting counter-surfed. Wrestle and Block are both equally good development options and the choice is a matter of taste. Jump Up means if opponents don’t knock them out when they knock them down you can spring some nasty surprises on your turn. But Frenzy tends to mean Witches are developed as ball-hunters or deep cover blitzers, hunting players near the sideline and looking for surfs. This means they can be effective ball carriers if you don’t want to use a Runner. With MA7, AG2+ and Dodge, Witches are one of your most mobile positionals out of the box. Sidestep is a great second skill for those who took Dodge first.Īnother contender for one of the best players in the game, Witches provide another slew of great stats and development options, as well as some unique skills that give the whole team another dimension. Mighty Blow, particularly on a Tackle piece, falls into the same category. Guard is very strong, but as a Secondary skill will require some SPP-saving. At some point you will want at least one with Tackle. With MA7 AG2+ AV9+ and Block, this is a do-it-all player that you will want to take the maximum of as soon as possible.įor development, Dodge is again an obvious choice. One of the finest players in all of Blood Bowl, the Dark Elf Blitzer is a perfect starting player that also has phenomenal development potential. Kick is another option that can create strong tactical opportunities and problems, but remember it comes with set-up restrictions. Dirty Player and Sneaky Git are equally strong options for fouling, though Dark Elves must be careful as their fouling pieces become TV-expensive. They can be developed in many ways, with Block and Dodge being easily accessible and obvious choices that immediately make them superb assets. With so many good positionals in the team, your linemen will tend to have to do the job of standing on the LOS, marking opponent players, acting as the front of your screens, and other similar unforgiving duties. The backbone of your team, linemen have good armour by elf standards, AG2+, and otherwise solid stats. ![]() The first local home to be built under the program is already underway.

After the story, Mario and Mallow agreed to aid Geno and the trio head out of the Forest Maze to search for the next Star Piece (not realizing an Aero heard the entire story). Geno thanked Mario and Mallow for helping him out and speaks of his backstory that he was sent to Earth to help rebuild Star Way. After a long battle, they defeated Bowyer and claimed the second Star Piece. However, the villain refused and prepares to fight Geno, but Mario and Mallow come to Geno's aid. Geno demands Bowyer to stop shooting arrows and hand over the Star Piece. Eventually, Geno managed to find the source of the arrows coming from one of the members of the Smithy Gang, Bowyer.

If the player helps the Toad in Rose Town get back to his house and apologizes for taking his treasures if the player opened any of the treasure boxes inside, the Toad gives directions to a secret area inside the Forest Maze. If a wrong turn is made, the player starts back at the beginning. At this point, however, the player is close enough to Bowyer to judge where to go based on the trajectory of the falling Aeros. The "maze" portion of the forest is navigated by following Geno at first. Afterward, Geno decides to join Mallow and Mario in claiming the remaining Star Pieces to repair Star Road.

Their second album “Rooi Rok Bokkie” was an instant hit and achieved more than 100 000 CD sales. The Campbells appealed to both the English and Afrikaans markets and decided to write and produce a few Afrikaans songs. Immediately there was talk about the new young South African cowboys that performed country, rock ‘n roll and pop dance music. In 2000 Kosie proceeded to sign the Campbells as artists with Select Music and released their debut album “You’re My Mate” during 2001. Kosie asked if they would record material for his record label and the Campbells agreed. Every year the Campbells improved musically and performed more frequently, often to bigger audiences.ĭuring 1999 the brothers met Kosie van Niekerk, the owner of Select Music. At this stage Harry was a gifted guitarist and Tony played drums, keyboards and was the lead vocalist in the group. It was at this stage that the Campbell Brothers had officially become a duo and in 1995 the brothers were considered a professional music group.ĭuring their tertiary education the Campbells invested in recording studio equipment and commenced audio recordings on a part time basis. During high school the brothers realized that it would only be the two of them that would put the effort in, to go all the way. Although a primary school band could not be considered professional the slick performances by the bands attracted many followers and earned the band members a reasonable amount of pocket money.

They expanded my horizons as I learned more about the people their lyrics alluded to, like Franz Kafka, and I listened to their influences like the Velvet Underground. Finally, through sheer weight of attrition, I heard I’m Into CB and something clicked, and I became a lifelong fan. I grew up listening to John Peel, but found the Fall irritating, repetitive and unintelligible. The entire double album of Public Castration Is a Good Idea by Swans. It’s hard to let go of my childhood attachment to the Smiths, but I don’t know how to square Morrissey’s solo stuff with what he’s become. I remember hearing How Soon Is Now when I went to see the Smiths at Birmingham Hippodrome and dancing to it at a disco in Tucson, Arizona in 1995. Loads of artists end up doing terrible things, but the Smiths meant such a lot to my generation, to have him drift to the far right doesn’t sit. So many blokey songs like The Boys of Summer by Don Henley felt massively overproduced back in the 80s, but I now listen to them with a real sense of nostalgia. The song I secretly like but tell everyone I hate It’s really danceable with a great mandolin break. At first, people think: “What’s this rubbish?” then Snoop Dogg creeps up. There’s a six-minute version of Snoop Dogg’s song Gin & Juice by this great hillbilly band called the Gourds. |
