Title: Unleash Your Power in Lords Mobile with Exclusive Hacks and Cheats Introduction: What mattered to me was that it also lets you create custom resolutions. SwitchResX is a 14€ shareware that will let you quickly change resolution, color modes, screen orientation and many, many other things I’m not even sure to understand. The two smaller (1280×800 & 1024×640), and they are too small to my taste (the other two resolution are not 16:10 and they make everything look slightly distorted on screen). That’s great save for the fact that with my external display, not counting its default native 1920×1200 resolution, Apple only provides two usable resolutions. It puts a little owl icon in your menu bar that lets you quickly switch mode by right-clicking it or with a keyboard shortcut: Pro tip: if you often switch your theme, install NightOwl. You turn Dark mode on and off in the System Preferences->General. If you don’t run macOS Mojave or a more recent version, there is no Dark mode but you can fall back on the good old Invert colours, see at the end of this post. There is no way around this for me, as I can barely look at light/white UI: it’s blinding, and it hurts. It’s 24” Dell with a 1920×1200 resolution: not a high-end display, but I could put a lamp right in front of this thing without being disturbed at all. Plus, I should add that I don’t use my laptop’s screen that often since I mostly use it as a desktop replacement, in clamshell mode and hooked to an external display. Of course, like with the iPad, there is a slight loss in sharpness but I don’t mind it, and it’s not like I have much choice anyway. any new Mac save the mini–is to apply a matte screen protector over the damn mirr– sorry–over the glossy screen. Like with the iPad, the first thing I do on any new machine that comes with a glossy screen–a.k.a. Now, it’s the Mac’s turn as, by default, every text and menu are way too small and not contrasted enough for me. The elegance and consistency of macOS Mojave make it all the more noticeable.I already explained how I configure the iPad to turn it into this neat ultra-portable device that I use with no problem despite my bad eyesight. Some people may not care about all this, but as someone with an eye for design, this stuff really gets to me and it's one of the reasons why Windows 10 always feel unfinished. Right now, though, CShell is pretty far away from hitting desktop devices, meaning for now we're stuck with this inconsistent experience. We also know that Microsoft is working on CShell, which will feature light mode in areas such as the taskbar, and Start menu. In this same perfect world, dark mode would be consistent across in-box apps and available in all of them rather than "most of them." Microsoft is currently working on implementing a new design language in Windows 10 called Fluent Design, which should hopefully see a lot of UI elements align with consistency. ![]() In a perfect world, the light mode would make all UI areas light, including the most prominent, always-on screen parts of the experience, or the Windows Shell. But in dark mode, you get an inconsistent dark app experience, that matches the rest of the Windows Shell. So, in light mode, you get a rather consistent light mode in apps, which clashes with the Windows Shell because it is dark all the time. System elements such as the taskbar, Start menu, and Action Center simply ignore light mode. And the light mode is even worse than the dark mode when it comes to consistency. ![]() You wouldn't think this was a "light mode" would you? Well, it is. Windows 10, by default, is set to light mode (see above image). The biggest issue I have with dark mode actually has nothing to do with dark mode, but rather, the light mode. ![]() But in doing so was it necessary for the police to run a child exploitation forum for nearly a year? Department of Homeland Security and the police in Canada and Europe worked to unmask the leaders of the world’s largest online community of child sexual abusers.įrom the start, Operation Artemis had a clear objective: identifying victims and their abusers. Only now can we tell the story of how Task Force Argos, the U.S. When VG's computer expert, Einar Otto Stangvik, began investigating the website and its Nordic members in the autumn of 2016, we had no idea he would uncover a secret police operation. VG has known about the operation since January and followed it closely, partly by monitoring traffic on the dark web and partly by obtaining information from police, judicial authorities and other sources around the world. How far should the police go in the service of good? How many wrongs should investigators be permitted to commit in pursuit of justice? The undercover operation in Australia, Operation Artemis, was part of a wide-ranging international police investigation. Jon Rouse, detective inspector, and investigator Paul Griffiths (on the left). ![]() VG can now reveal that Task Force Argos infiltrated the realm of child abusers inside the dark web for almost a year – and that the police unit itself shared photos of children being sexually abused. Investigator Paul Griffiths has been in charge of numerous operations. They work for the Australian police’s spearhead into the dark web: Task Force Argos. VG has uncovered not only where but also from which computer the forum was run. Encryption was supposed to keep the whereabouts of the server and the people behind it secret. The website they operate is on the so-called “dark web”. Finding them was thought to be impossible. It’s understandable that Jon and Paul look shocked. It’s next to impossible to know, based on traffic analysis, who’s sent the message – or who visits a Tor service. Message arrives When the recipient gets the message, all layers of the package has been unwrapped. At each node, another layers of the package is decrypted, until the innermost message reaches the final recipient. The layers are decrypted The encrypted message is being sent to another node, then another. Each node knows nothing about the package it receives, beyond which node it was received from, and which node it’s to be sent to next. Each node decrypts one layer of the onion, which grants the node information about where the package will go next. The package is sent Once wrapped, the package is sent from you to a chain of nodes. When you want to send a message to another computer within the Tor network, this message is encapsulated a number of times. The Onion Router got its name because the encryption is layered, like an onion. ![]() Messages are encapsulated All communication within the network is encrypted. The network consists of an array of «nodes», or computers, that are configured as mediators between users and sites. The Onion Router The most widely used dark web technology is The Onion Router – Tor – which has tens of thousands of web services. This makes it a popular technology for persons who wish to stay clear of law enforcement, either out of fear of being censored or jailed. A part of the internet where traffic between you and the websites you visit is encrypted in such a way that it’s very difficult for others to identify you. A visit from Uncle Charley leads Sam into a situation that jeopardizes her relationship with Derek while uncovering the truth about Mitchell and putting all their lives in danger. an interesting and engaging story broke out about Derek's abusive step-dad, Mitchell, the effect on his mother, his relationship with Sam and the truth about his father's death. Once the initial action and gore is over, something unusual for a direct to video movie happened. It doesn't take long before animal passions are running wild and I don't just mean the sex crazed teenagers. On their way to the cabin the teenagers meet a local who warns them to stay away from the cabin but of course the warning is unheeded. Derek's friend Sam, a leather wearing tomboy on a motorcycle, on whom he has a not-so-secret crush, is talked into going along. Derek Cowley steals the key to his step-dad's cabin in an effort to impress the local cool kids and get a little party action on. Title (Brazil): Not AvailableĪt best I was expecting a campy B movie with a little T & A and well, Big Bad Wolf delivered in spades. The special effects are great for a B-movie and in the end "Big Bad Wolf" is a very entertaining movie and recommended for fans of the genre. The situation of Sam collecting DNA sample is also funny. The beginning with teenagers going to an isolated cabin and finding a monster is not original, but the sadistic attack of the werewolf, specially the virgin girl, is hilarious. "Big Bad Wolf" is a surprisingly good werewolf movie, with gore and black humor. ![]() When Charlie meets Derek and Sam, they decide to collect evidence to prove that Mitchell is the Beast and kill him, but Mitchell discovers their plot and chases the trio. Sam and Derek survive, and they suspect that his stepfather Mitchell Toblat (Richard Tyson) is a werewolf. However, they are attacked by a Beast that kills his friends in a sadistic way. Brown) to spend the weekend having a party with booze and sex. Seven years later, his teenage nephew Derek Cowley (Trevor Duke) steals the key of his stepfather's cabin in the isolated Fire Road 13 and travels with four classmates and his friend Sam (Kimberly J. ![]() In Cameron, a group of hunters is attacked by a wild animal, and Charlie Cowley (Christopher Shyer) survives but sees his brother Scott (Andrew Bowen) dying. ![]() Some will have a past history of skin cancers. These patients may be heavy smokers and may experience throat or ear discomfort, voice change or swallowing difficulty. Lateral neck nodes in adults may be metastases from the throat. Any nodes that persist for more than 3 weeks in the absence of a diagnosis should be investigated. Lymphomatous nodes can have similar symptoms of fever, night sweats, weight loss, and tenderness. Serology for glandular fever or toxoplasmosis may be positive. Inflammatory nodes are generally associated with systemic symptoms such as tenderness, fever, malaise, sore throat. Any lumps that are persisting or growing over a few weeks or months must be investigated for malignancy. Most inflammatory lumps will begin to resolve within 3 weeks. parotid or thyroid cancers can be quiescent for years before taking on a more aggressive course. Generally lumps that have been present for years are benign but not necessarily so e.g. However multiple non-tender nodes can be due to malignancy either primarily of lymph nodes (lymphoma) or secondarily by spread from a cancer of the head and neck (nodal metastasis). Multiple lumps are generally lymph nodes and the most common cause is inflammation e.g. glandular fever, toxoplasmosis. Most thyroid lumps are benign but still require investigation as some are cancers. Lower neck - in front of or deep to the neck muscles – often represent thyroid abnormalities and will elevate with swallowing. Other possibilities include nerve tumours, carotid body tumours. Any persisting lateral neck lump in an adult must be treated with suspicion for malignancy. In adolescents and young adults a branchial cyst may come up almost over night and present as a firm swelling in the upper neck. Lateral neck – usually are enlarged lymph nodes. ![]() In Polynesian patients in particular, a cystic swelling may be due to a plunging ranula which is due to chronic leakage of mucus from the sublingual gland (under the tongue) into the neck. As with parotid lumps, lymph nodes involved by skin cancer occur increasingly with age. Under the body of the mandible – usually related to abnormalities of the submandibular gland such as blocked gland, infection, tumour. Most are benign parotid tumours but lymph nodes involved by skin cancer occur increasingly with age. In the lower neck they may represent thyroid abnormalities and will elevate with swallowing.Īngle of jaw – most of these are parotid lumps. Under the chin they may represent dermoid cysts, thyroglossal cysts (especially around the hyoid). present at birth at least in vestigial form. Midline lumps – these are often congenital i.e. Single lateral neck lumps in an adult over 40 must be considered cancerous until proven otherwise. The vast majority of lumps in children and young adults will be either inflammatory or congenital. The important concepts in understanding neck lumps are ![]() Tolkien stated that he was disappointed by Shakespeare's handling of the coming of "Great Birnam Wood to High Dunsinane hill" he wanted a setting in which the trees would actually go to war. ![]() Akin to Ents are Huorns, whom Treebeard describes as a transitional form of trees which become animated or, conversely, as Ents who grow more "treelike" over time. At that time, there are no young Ents (Entings) because the Entwives (female Ents) were lost. The Ent who figures most prominently in the book is Treebeard, who is called the oldest creature in Middle-earth. The Ents appear in The Lord of the Rings as ancient shepherds of the forest and allies of the free peoples of Middle-earth during the War of the Ring. Their name is derived from an Old English word for " giant". Tolkien's fantasy world of Middle-earth who closely resemble trees their leader is Treebeard of Fangorn forest. Onodrim, Shepherds of the Trees, Tree-folkĮnts are a species of sentient beings in J. The name deus ex machina was probably chosen, because the god's appearing in the sky (or from above), was an effect which was achieved by means of some sort of a crane (the "machine").Treebeard and Hobbits by Tom Loback, 2007 *) deus ex machina, the ' god from the machinery' has its origin in the Greek drama where it meant the timely appearance of a god to unravel and resolve the plot. Had he not used them in this 'function', he probably could have had them involved in the plot more often. The eagles are IMO a somewhat different case, because Tolkien used them as sort of "dei ex machina" *), using them too often would have meant to overstress their credibility and that is IMO the reason why Tolkien calls them ".a dangerous 'machine'" in his letter. Tolkien's Elves are probably the best example of how unique the creatures of Middle-earth could become, they reached a state of refinement and sophistication, which is absolutely without parallels in extant mythologies. True, Inderjit, I think that - as time went by - Tolkien successively freed himself from his sources, Middle-earth and its " creatures" became more unique and references, or even mentionings of creatures "borrowed" from other mythologies became sparse. Thus, I do not think that Tolkien ever pondered about which creatures to "add" to his subcreation and which not, rather, I think he added what he saw fit and whatever had caught his interest one way or another.īut what I find fascinating, is the mix of knowledge and fantasy, which makes Tolkien's creatures so unique, IMO The giant spiders may have come in for a different reason, though. ![]() his essay Sigelwara-Land).Įnts are in Northern and Anglo-Saxon tradition portrayed as giants, what Tolkien added to make them walking and talking trees has probably roots in Macbeth (Birnam Wood) and the Câd Goddeu, the 'Battle of the Trees', a Celtic myth.įastitocalon is another example where mythological and philological roots meet. Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics).īalrogs, the 'fire-demons' resemble not only the fiery sons of Muspell of Germanic/Northern myths, but probably also stem from Tolkien's philological interest in the roots of the Old English word Sigelhearwan (cf. If we put aside the brownies, fays, pixies, leprawns (BoLT1) or the enchanted leprechauns (" Goblin Feet") or the dragon-moths, sea-worms, -cats and -cows ( Roverandom) and creatures of the like, which seem more or less casually mentioned, what remains has in most cases either mythological or philological roots, or both.ĭragons seem to have fascinated Tolkien from his youth and it appears he dedicated much thought to them and their mythological roots (cf. Its OSD sets its "region" field to 2 instead of 1, despite this console being in the NTSC region. Fixed OSD configuration setup for the SCPH-50009. Added a clone of the kernel update for the SCPH-10000 (v1.01) and SCPH-15000. The MBR program's EELOAD module had it's argument storage widened, so that it can take in 16 user arguments (To avoid buffer overflows, since the code within it was always limiting the number of accepted arguments to 16). Also, with this recompilation, the Protokernel patch within it has been updated (Note: This doesn't really matter because the patch from the FMCB binary would have already been applied). Recompiled the FMCB configurator to have the updated FMCB release version number. FMCB will no longer parse and repeat the arguments, but passes the arguments directly to the OSD program "as-is". Changed the way arguments are passed to the OSD program. It will now boot properly, and sets the EE and CD/DVD drive into "PS2 mode". Latest Version : 1.93 Release Date: 3 Notes for this version: ![]() Please read the included README file for information regarding limitations/known issues and other important notes! Modifying or getting a pre-modified copy of the HDDOSD is not under this project, which is why that topic will not be discussed here. ***Whether the hacked HDD OSD supports non-Sony disks or not depends on whether it was modified to support non-Sony disks.*** ![]() Patched/modified copies of the HDDOSD may not work, although non-Sony disks are supported by FHDB itself. It does everything like FMCB does, but is meant to be used with the Sony HDDOSD (Browser update v2.00). Free Memory Card Boot (FMCB) is a homebrew software which is designed to setup your PlayStation 2 console and provide you with a means of launching homebrew software, without the need for any extra hardware, modifications to your console or dangerous tricks like the legendary swap trick.įMCB was originally developed by Neme and Jimmikaelkael, but they have been kind enough to provide me with access to its source code, for me to make some improvements to it.įree Harddisk Drive Boot (FHDB) is basically FMCB that gets installed onto the PlayStation 2 console's HDD unit. ![]() There are two categories of screen recorders browser or web-based screen recorders and their desktop counterpart.

Download the excel file and save it to a local folder. For the dataset, we will use the General Aviation 2013 Excel file available for public use from. To follow this example, you will need to download Power BI Desktop directly from Microsoft-don’t worry, it’s free-and install it. Now, let’s take a look at Power Query in Power BI Desktop. Once source data is refreshed, all Power BI visualizations are refreshed with the updated data as well. Because Power Query maintains a step-by-step record of every action taken to ingest, transform and load data, you can repeat these same steps when you need to refresh the data. Power BI Desktop and Power Query give users the ability to automate the process of ingesting, transforming and loading data into internal tables in Power BI, which can then be used as a source for Power BI visualizations. What is Power Query? And How Does it Work with Power BI Desktop? However, Microsoft has a tool that can make this process much easier and faster: Power Query in Power BI Desktop. The challenge with this method? The ETL process in Excel is usually a time-consuming, manual process that is not easy to automate. But in some organizations, business users do some of this ETL work right in Excel, often referred to as data shaping and transformation. Typically, the ETL process is carried out by robust enterprise-grade ETL applications such as SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) or other third-party tools. During the ETL process, data is extracted from a data source, then transformed, validated, standardized, corrected, quality checked and ultimately loaded into a data repository-such as a data mart or data warehouse-where it is streamlined for analysis and reporting. In most organizations, data goes through an ETL (extract, transform and load) process before it is available for reporting. |
