The one i'm Most worried about is Cradily. This will have many 1st turn wins, 50 damage with the right flip is worse than Tyrogue from Neo Discovery. Holon Mag/Trode help this out even more and it's immune to Desert Ruins. This better only count for the EXACT energy and not the energy AMOUNT or it goes into broken-ness. I explained that in the Giant stump thread The set will be fun, yet there are many worrying cards which I dont really like. To see the spoilers of the Japanese set, simply click "Eidolon Forest" under "Japanese TCG Sets" in the left menu. We will see the return of Rainbow Energy, improved fossil cards, and powerful EXs, such as Arcanine and Flygon. The original Eidolon Forest was 77 cards, plus 15 unique cards from the Banette theme deck (92 in total), so our set will probably be made only of the cards from the Japanese set, and possibly some other odds and ends. EX Legend Maker is going to be a bit smaller than our usual sets. The two theme deck names are Groundbreaker and Shadowquake. Exciting holographic parallel set for players and collectors alike!

12/31/2023 0 Comments Wreckfest gameWith that said, there is one singular mode that stood out in this version: Arcade. All in all, things ran smoothly, and all content featured in other ports is included in the Switch version. Loading times are not as long as a game like this would make you assume, as the file size hasn’t been overly compressed. Sure, at 30fps, and with reduced graphical fidelity (less impressive textures and a lower resolution), but all things considered, the frame pacing and visuals are still much better than most AA ports to the system. Somehow the Switch manages to run it better than expected. This is a game featuring really complex physics, sixteen concurrent racers in one match, well-constructed (and destructible) car models, and a proprietary engine. THQ Nordic’s track record on the system isn’t entirely bad, but I don’t think they have ever attempted to port such a demanding game for the console. What you really want to know from this review is if Wreckfest manages to hold up on such inferior hardware. The best way to properly see the damage you’re dealing. Wreckfest features a confusing (blame the crappy UI), but fun photo mode. You want to crash onto everything in sight, and this is what you’ll do. It’s not that the physics aren’t decent, on the contrary, but the overall chaotic nature of the game makes these customization options borderline irrelevant. All of them are fully tunable as well, even though, for all intents and purposes, you don’t exactly need to care a lot about their stats during races. Sure, the amount of cars at your disposal isn’t immense, but you can fully customize them with parts acquired on the game’s reasonably lengthy career mode. One thing mentioned on our review of the first release of Wreckfest, way back in 2018, was an apparent lack of content, which was slightly mitigated over the past few years. Want to race against normal cars while driving a school bus with no brakes? Sure, why not? You can drive everything from a lawnmower to a combine harvester, and everything in between. Remember the good old days playing Destruction Derby on your PS1 or Nintendo 64? This follows the same trend, letting you race in small tracks or just battle against each other in closed arenas, but bloodring bangers aren’t the only kinds of cars available in this game. Developed by Bugbear, the same folks behind the cult hit FlatOut, Wreckfest is a racing/demolition derby simulator. The arcade mode is the highlight of this Switch version.įirst of all, let me explain what Wreckfest is in case you don’t know. How well would the Switch fare with a game definitely not made with its weak hardware in mind? Better than I could have predicted, in fact. It even received native PS5 and Xbox Series X ports before this Switch version. Wreckfest had a notoriously long development cycle, taking a long time to be released to PC, and even longer to be ported to other consoles. Porting a proprietary engine to a console with PC architecture is one thing, but doing so for a system whose CPU is based on mobile phones must be an extra hassle. That’s possibly one of the reasons we still haven’t seen ports of Persona 5 to it. You rarely see demanding games with proprietary engines being ported to the system. Wreckfest was a game I thought to be nigh impossible to port on the Switch. Wreckfest, on the other hand, is a different story. They exist, and even if they are worse than their PS4 counterparts, I like the fact that these ports exist. Darksiders III, SpongeBob, Destroy All Humans none of these games felt like something the Switch would run natively (and decently), but here we are. THQ Nordic, their main publishing branch, isn’t bothered by the Switch’s inferior hardware they will port their games to that system if given the chance. One of the things I like the most about the Embracer Group, besides the fact they are, somehow, the largest publishing conglomerate in the world right now, is that they aren’t bothered by the odds. 12/31/2023 0 Comments 4chan v archiveKusaba was a PHP-based modular imageboard software, which used MySQL. Two FOSS examples of this are frankusr's Wakaba fork, and the user experience focused Glaukaba. A few users have attempted to remedy this by forking the original project and adding in features they consider beneficial. Because of its focus on bare-bones functionality, Wakaba lacks many of the modern amenities provided by 4chan's Yotsuba, and newer imageboard scripts. It is designed to be more efficient and cleanly written than other scripts that are available, while preserving the same kind of functionality. Wakaba is a Perl imageboard script with a SQL backend to store thread information. Although the Futallaby source is still freely available at 1chan, it is no longer in development, and the download page recommends using Wakaba instead, stating that "Wakaba can do everything Futallaby does and so much more." Futallaby started as a translation of Futaba, later retooled to support XHTML and customizable CSS styles. Historical įutallaby is a PHP script based on the Futaba script from Futaba Channel. There are currently several Futaba-inspired imageboard software packages in widespread usage today, including Vichan, Kusaba/Kusaba X, and TinyIB. There are two primary types of imageboard software packages in widespread use: linearly directed imageboards modeled closely after Futaba Channel (in which content is posted through hierarchical subsections of topical interest, usually denoted by a forward slash such as "/f" for female), and nonlinear imageboards modeled after Danbooru (usually indicated by the usage of controlled folksonomic vocabulary for topical tagging and search). They therefore function closer to a username than to a cryptographic signature this is why QAnon could not verify themselves on another website when 8chan went down in late 2019. Such tripcodes are not reproducible across different imageboards they work by prepending a secure salt to the tripcode, barring intrusion, known only to the server owner. In general, anonymity is considered to be one of the advantages of an imageboard, and some boards have from time to time removed the ability to post with a name altogether (known as "forced anonymous/anonymity").ĭue to the fact tripcodes can be cracked given enough time, some imageboards, such as 4chan and 8chan, implement a "secure" tripcode. For those who want a custom tripcode, however, there are custom tripcode generators (which are technically tripcode crackers) available, such as Meriken's Tripcode Engine and MTY_CL. Trying to take another user's tripcode and compute their password from it (for instance, to make posts that appear to come from a particular person) is somewhat computationally difficult. Entering a particular password will let one "sign" one's posts with the tripcode generated from that password. A tripcode is the hashed result of a password that allows one's identity to be recognized without storing any data about users. Most imageboards and 2channel-style discussion boards allow (and encourage) anonymous posting and use a system of tripcodes instead of registration. Imageboards are also different from online galleries in that most of the works posted are not made by the poster, but instead are taken from other online sources: galleries, other imageboards, and edited pictures.Ī diagram of a typical tripcode derivation process. The most popular English language imageboard, 4chan, similarly has a large variety of topics. In Japan, where imageboards are more common, topics will vary widely, ranging from trains to current news. Imageboards are much more transitory with content-on some boards (especially highly trafficked ones), the thread deletion time can be as little as 10 minutes. The two share many of the same structures, including separate forums for separate topics, as well as similar audiences. The primary focus of imageboards, however, is directed away from text posts, and is instead placed on picture posts. Imageboards, similar to bulletin board systems, are used for discussions of a variety of topics. 12/31/2023 0 Comments Fifa 21 switchIntense immersion – the fans in the stadium react to the course of the match, providing sublime emotions for the player as well as igniting atmosphere exploding with raw emotion, closely reflecting real-life matches.

Of course, any one-size-fits-all approach in education isn’t going to work 100% of the time! There might be occasions when leading with a pictorial representation for an earlier, similar concept might work better than kicking things off with free-form play-based learning with concrete equipment relevant to the learning at hand. APC, PAC or CPA? Does it really matter in which order you teach the C-P-A approach? Using a CPA approach allows children to get to grips with new concepts by making use of their existing knowledge and experiences by providing them with a more familiar and real-world entry point to new learning. Usually, those children who find maths hard to understand are feeling that way because of how abstract the subject is and how removed many of its symbols are from day-to-day life. The concrete, pictorial, abstract approach (or CPA method) is a process of using “concrete” equipment to represent numbers (including fractions) and operations, such as addition, subtraction, division and multiplication, followed by a pictorial representation to represent the equipment or derived structures (like bar and part-whole models), before moving on to the “abstract” digits and various other symbols used in mathematics. Why is the CPA approach used in mathematics? It has become popular in other English speaking territories in recent years due to a push by the British and North American governments for their school-aged children to perform better in mathematics according to the global PISA education performance rankings, which has led to the development and promotion of Singapore-style mathematics teaching in primary and secondary schools. Singapore or mastery-style maths and its CPA approach was inspired by the research and work of Jerome Bruner The approach is inspired by the work of Jerome Bruner, an American psychologist, who developed the process in the late 1960s. The concrete, pictorial, abstract approach to mathematics has been a key feature of teaching and learning in Singapore since the 1980s. What is the CPA approach and where did it come from? 12/30/2023 0 Comments Image plus printingThe convention is that this is not done by stating how wide one single pixel is, as I did above. The term resolution can be used to describe the actual size of pixels. If the image is printed so that it is 25 centimeters wide, each pixel measures 0,0083 centimeters. Suppose I just print that same image on an A4 size sheet with my printer at home.With 3000 pixels to divide over that distance, each pixel is 3.43 centimeter wide. The Stamford Bridge field is 103 meters or 73.3 yards long.Maybe they become very small or maybe they become big enough to fill the football field of Stamford Bridge, the home of Chelsea Football Club. When you print the image or display it on some physical device, then those pixels do get actual dimensions. So, how large is a pixel? Since a digital image is not physical, the pixels in it don’t really have a size. That is typically the case in the printing industry. The term resolution can however also be used to describe the actual or assumed size of pixels. The above definition is pretty straightforward. Resolution as the definition of the absolute size of an image The habit of using the term resolution to refer to the number of pixels in an image is typical for the photography market. Those 6 million pixels equal a resolution of 6 megapixels. Sometimes users are only interested in the total number of pixels. That means the above image of the bird has a resolution of 3000 x 2000 pixels. Resolution describes the image size as the number of pixels it contains, typically as ‘width x height‘. In the above image, each row contains 3000 pixels and there are 2000 rows. Resolution as the definition of the number of pixels 12/30/2023 0 Comments The weather in vienna in augustMake a Pic Nic in one of the Viennese parks Here is a list of the Best Heuriger (Wine Taverns) in ViennaīEST HEURIGER IN VIENNA – COMPLETE GUIDE TO THE WINE TAVERNS IN VIENNA Here is a complete guide to the Best Heuriger in Vienna, so you can taste the sweet summer and enjoy some wine tasting in Vienna.

Let us imagine that a manager is walking down the hall and that he notices one of his subordinates, Jones, coming his way. Hence we shall use the monkey-on-the-back metaphor to examine how subordinate-imposed time comes into being and what the superior can do about it. Most managers spend much more time dealing with subordinates’ problems than they even faintly realize. They will then use the added increment to get better control over their boss-imposed and system-imposed activities. Managers should try to increase the discretionary component of their self-imposed time by minimizing or doing away with the subordinate component. Thus their self-imposed time becomes their major area of concern. Since what their bosses and the system impose on them are subject to penalty, managers cannot tamper with those requirements. To accommodate those demands, managers need to control the timing and the content of what they do. Self-imposed time is not subject to penalty since neither the boss nor the system can discipline the manager for not doing what they didn’t know he had intended to do in the first place. The remaining portion will be the manager’s own and is called discretionary time. A certain portion of this kind of time, however, will be taken by subordinates and is called subordinate-imposed time. Self-imposed time-used to do those things that the manager originates or agrees to do. Neglecting these requests will also result in penalties, though not always as direct or swift. System-imposed time-used to accommodate requests from peers for active support. Specifically, we shall deal with three kinds of management time:īoss-imposed time-used to accomplish those activities that the boss requires and that the manager cannot disregard without direct and swift penalty. Why is it that managers are typically running out of time while their subordinates are typically running out of work? Here we shall explore the meaning of management time as it relates to the interaction between managers and their bosses, their peers, and their subordinates.
