I imagine a lot has to do with the genre both being on the up in general but also relatively young, German rap has came up in the 90s and gangster rap is a thing of the 00s & 10s so I imagine its much more. Whether you can’t get enough of them (like the TED Talks Daily episode about the guy who categorically refuses to believe the perfect spaghetti sauce exists), or, just getting into them for the first time you’ve come to the right place. German Spotify charts have always been very very rap / gangster rap heavy much much more so than the general public or even general youth. The tour follows the announcement of Brazilian and Mexican dates in April and May and will see Dickinson supported by a band that includes guitarist Roy Z, drummer Dave Moreno, bass-player Tanya O’Callaghan and keyboard maestro Mistheria. Welcome to your daily guide to popular podcasts on Spotify. The tour kicks off on May 18th at the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow and concludes with a performance at Instanbul’s Kucukciftlik Park on July 19th. Compare entites across multiple metrics with radar/spider charts, star charts and radial bar charts. “As befitting its title, it’s a heavy song and there’s a great big riff driving it…but there’s also a real melody in the chorus that displays the light and shade that the rest of the album brings… and just wait until you see the video!” Spotify charts Sweden: Loreen smashing all streaming records with Tattoo Rosa Linns SNAP tops Eurovision 2022 Spotify Chart, ending Chanels 40-day reign. “It was important to set the tone of the project with this track,” Dickinson explains.

12/14/2023 0 Comments Sony 50mm 2.8 macroIt almost needs a fourth setting of, say, 16cm-20cm, which would help significantly when you know you are shooting at the minimum range of the lens. This means it doesn’t cut down on the time it takes to focus. Shifting the length of this range looking for focus takes around three seconds. The limiter is great if you want to focus beyond 30cm, but for use from 16cm-30cm it doesn’t offer much of an advantage. The focus limiter on the side of the lens has three different settings: Full Range, 30cm to infinity and 16cm to 30cm. You could just about say that the focus snaps at this range. At distances of 1m to infinity it is a lot faster, as it has less work to do in terms of shifting lens elements around. It is occasionally prone to hunting at closer distances, as macro lenses often are, but if you wait patiently it does get there.Īs a general 50mm lens, the focusing is far better. Autofocusing from around 60cm to infinity on the original Alpha 7R takes just under one second, while from the minimum focusing distance to infinity takes nearer three seconds. Not surprisingly, this means autofocus can be rather slow. Unlike most modern macro lenses, the FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro doesn’t use internal focusing instead, the lens barrel extends hugely on focusing closer. There are no silent piezo electric stepping motors here, just good old-fashioned motors that whirr away steadily and methodically to get your subject in accurate focus. It suddenly sounds like you’re stepping back a decade in terms of technology. The first thing you notice when using the lens is the noise and pedestrian speed of the AF motor. Manually fine-tuning is easy, especially with 100% magnification. Electronic focusing isn’t always the best option when it comes to focusing macro images, but I found that the 50mm f/2.8 didn’t present any difficulty once you have the subject roughly in focus. As with all Sony FE lenses, the 50mm f/2.8 Macro lens uses electronic fly-by-wire focusing, with a thinly ribbed manual-focus ring at the end of the lens. There are a few controls on the lens itself, namely an AF/MF switch, a focus limiter and what looks like an AF on button, but is actually an AF lock button. It combines well with the Alpha 7-series cameras, and feels pleasingly in scale with the camera. It has a solid metal body and mount, but it measures just 70.8x71mm in size and weighs only 236g. Sony FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro review: Build and handlingĪt £500, we expect a decent build quality, and the FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro doesn’t disappoint. Those with the second-generation Alpha 7-series cameras needn’t worry so much, as these have in-camera sensor-based stabilisation, which should give more flexibility to shoot handheld.Īs an interesting aside, as the majority of Sony’s new cameras have sensor-based stabilisation, it is perhaps a chance for the company to introduce more of these affordable lenses without need for the additional expense associated with optically stabilised lenses. It should be noted that the lens isn’t optically stabilised, so owners of the first generation of Alpha 7-series cameras will need to keep an eye on shutter speeds and make sure the camera and lens are held steady when shooting macro images. There are seven circular aperture blades for that all-important smooth out-of-focus area, which is even more important when shooting macro images, and it has a 55mm filter thread. More importantly, it offers 1:1 macro at a minimum focus distance of 16cm. Its 50mm focal length offers a 47° angle of view on full-frame E-mount cameras. Optically, the lens is constructed of eight elements in seven groups, and has an aperture range of between f/2.8 and f/16. With the emphasis on affordability and price, the Sony FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro lens is something of a no-frills affair in terms of its feature set. The FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro lens may be cheaper, lighter and smaller, but just how good are the images it produces, and is it destined to become a favourite among Sony Alpha 7 series owners? Sony FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro review: Features Crucially, at around £500, it is some £450 cheaper than Sony’s other FE macro lens, the FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro. Now there is another 50mm lens, this time with an f/2.8 maximum aperture and the ability to capture 1:1 macro images. Costing nearly £250, this lens is still around £100 more expensive than its Canon and Nikon DSLR counterparts, but it is a step in the right direction. It started with the FE 50mm f/1.8, which we reviewed (and quite liked). After listening to the feedback from its users, Sony has gradually been increasing the number of affordable lenses in its FE line-up for full-frame Alpha 7 models. 12/14/2023 0 Comments Sketchup for schools extension
12/14/2023 0 Comments Steam forcing subnautica vrSome of you are probably familiar with this method for other games - I seen it being discussed before. *edit*: So based on ShiftE's suggestion, I found this video on how to revert the game to previous builds: Of course that would be to just get the game running with 3D enabled, let alone 'fixed' again. I'd be more than happy to purchase the Steam version if I knew that would fix the problem, but without knowing what the problem is, it might be throwing money away. I wish I knew what was preventing it from launching. Yes, if only I had backed up everything before I turned on that stupid Epic launcher. So, this is the first time something like this has ever happened, therefore it's my first lesson learned the hard way. This is one game I could never be satisfied with playing in 2D only, and it has become, quite possibly, my all-time favorite game. The little error window doesn't even show for a full second, therefore I am unable to read what it actually says. The game tries to launch, immediately there is a small window that appears in the middle of the screen with the little Peeper fish on it, and at the top it has one line of text something to the effect of "UNITY 30-020." (numbers approximate) and then it goes away and I'm kicked back out to the Epic launcher. 3D no longer worked correctly in general, let alone Subnautica.Ģ) I installed the last known "good" 3D driver (425.) and 3D was working again.ģ) I tested another 3D-ready game also launched through Epic and verified that 3D is working properly and the Epic store itself isn't the issue.Ĥ) I reinstalled Subnautica completely and did not try to install the 3D fix to see if it would start completely vanilla.ĥ) I verified that Subnautica launches correctly when 3D mode is disabled in the NVCP.Ħ) I disabled my other two displays just in case they were causing some sort of confusion.ħ) I enabled 3D mode in NVCP and launched the game.Īfter trying all of the above, the problem persists. So I installed the latest GeForce driver (441.) using Paul's wonderful 3DFM. Here are the results:ġ) I was on driver version 417. I'll try the Universal when I have the chance and report back. Since it's Unity game, it would be worth trying to apply DHR's Universal Fix. Presumably the VR mod is now broken as well. VR mode is as broken as it's ever been, stuff too close to your face. If you have VR headset plugged in, you also need -vrmode none. Shadows are broken, and the UI HUD elements are disjointed. I just tested this update, and can confirm that it breaks the fix. Turn off all the updaters, or make backups of your game directories onto giant external drives. More for anybody else who might run into this, and any other games on EGS. Sorry, that's right, doesn't help in your case. Not sure if that's the key difference, but launching directly from the. Which means that stinking EGS won't let me run the game without completing the update.

Affine transformations are used to project the source and target surfaces to the middle surface of the volume. Smart affine: The “smart affine” option does minimal smoothing of the interior nodes. This option is rarely needed since the next option produces better results with little time penalty. As one would expect, this option generates swept meshes more quickly than the other sweep smooth options. Volumes for which this is nearly true may also produce acceptable quality with “linear”. Good quality swept meshes can be constructed using “linear” provided the volume geometry and meshed linking surfaces permit the volume mesh to be created by a translation, scaling, and/or rotation of the source mesh. The node positions are determined strictly by the affine transformation from the previous layer. Linear: If this option is selected, no layer smoothing is performed. The sweep tool permits five types of smoothing that are set with the following command prior to meshing a volume whose mesh scheme is sweep: To ensure adequate mesh quality, optional smoothing schemes are available to reposition the interior nodes. The command ' set legacy sweeper on|off controls the mode. Sweep smooth Option: Note: This option is available only in Legacy mode. Translate: If the translate option is selected then a simple translate affine transformation is calculated based upon the centroid of the source and target. Least squares: If the least squares option is selected then affine transformations between the source and target are calculated using a least squares method. The method used to calculate the affine transformations is set using the sweep transform option. Sweep transform Option: Swept meshes are created by projecting points between the source and target surfaces using affine transformations and then connecting them to form hexahedra. It also propagates bias from one linking curve to all other linking curves. Propagate bias Option: The propagate bias option attempts to preserve the source bias by propagating bias mesh schemes from the curves of the source surface to the curves of the target surface. For example, in Figure 1 right, the number of intervals through the holes must be the same as along the outer shell. This constrains the number of edges along curves of linking surfaces. For a given pair of source/target surfaces, there must be the same number of hexahedral layers between them regardless of the path taken. Occasionally the user must also adjust intervals along curves, in addition to the usual surface interval matching requirements. If the user wants to avoid swaps and enforce that a particular surface is the source, then they can mesh that prior to sweeping. Summary: Produces an extruded hexahedral mesh for 2.5D volumes. 12/13/2023 0 Comments Haiku poems about growing upHe is the author of, among others, The Secret Library: A Book-Lovers’ Journey Through Curiosities of History and The Great War, The Waste Land and the Modernist Long Poem. Here are a random few haiku poems from my homestead haiku collection. The author of this article, Dr Oliver Tearle, is a literary critic and lecturer in English at Loughborough University.

Speaking in a collective voice like a religious litany or prayer, Lorde – a prominent African-American poet – highlights that some people are always afraid because life is tough and constantly throwing challenges at them. This is a poem for people on the fringes, the ‘shoreline’, the threshold of society. The poems, written in the classical Japanese poetry form, concern death. A rousing poem from one of the most rousing voices in American poetry from the last fifty years. beyond blue mountains deep gold horizon sunrise a peach rose unfurls suddenly so green and baby jays are singing blindsided by spring rise up at pink dawn the early bird is crowing miles before moonlight sweet kindergarten where minds begin to wander here there everywhere. This wonderfully self-assertive poem about picking yourself up and striving to achieve, even in the face of adversity, was used for an advertising campaign by the UNCF in the US, but its message of selfhood and determination is one that should be heard by all.

12/13/2023 0 Comments Windows 10 safe mode boot f8In Windows 8, swipe from the right to open the charms bar. But in Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, starting computers in Safe Mode has become very hard or almost impossible. In Windows 10, select the Start button, and then choose the settings button followed by Update & Security. Try entering Safe Mode to repair Press and hold the power button for 5 to 10 seconds to perform a complete shutdown Do this three or more times. In older Windows versions such as Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7, users were able to press F8 key at startup to access Safe Mode options screen and boot their computers in Safe Mode. Step 2: Now press down the Shift key on your keyboard and click Restart with the mouse. You’ll see the field containing the buttons Save energy, Shut down, and Restart. Select the Minimal option, click Apply, and then click OK. Step 1: Click on the on/off button on the screen as you normally would when shutting down or restarting Windows 10. On the bottom-left side, in the Boot options section, check the box for Safe boot. Some websites advise you to press Shift+F8, just before Windows 10 starts loading so that you make it launch the recovery mode, from where you can boot into. In the System Configuration window, click the Boot tab. Maybe something to do with VMWare Tools? I'll post a separate topic about that tomorrow. In Windows 11, right-click the Start button and choose Settings. Press the Windows key and R together to access the Run option. So now I'm not sure how I'll ever get that version installed and working. Note: If you can boot to Windows, then you don't need to apply these steps, because the F8 key is already enabled. How to Turn On the F8 Boot Menu if Server 2012/2016/2019 Fails to Start. I think the feature update that causes the black screen problem to appear, is version 20H2, which it seems is a new version of Windows. But, if Windows does not function properly and especially if Windows is unable to boot normally, the F8 key does not work. I now have Windows displaying and working properly again after I login. Safe mode starts Windows in a basic state, using a limited set of files and drivers. Safe Mode with Command Prompt does display, though not sure if anything can be done from there to fix the main problem.Īnyway, instead in Troubleshoot -> Advanced Options, that you go through to get to Safe Mode from the link, there is also an option to Uninstall Updates, so I used that to roll back the latest Windows feature update. Still get the black screen, both in Safe Mode and also low resolution video mode. If you like, you may be able to use one of the options in the tutorial below to boot into Safe Mode. Though unfortunately getting to Safe Mode didn't solve my problem with the black screen after logging in. By default, F8 no longer works to boot into Windows Boot Manager. Thanks I had just found that same site myself here this evening, and had just succesfully used method 1 described there to get to Safe Mode. 12/13/2023 0 Comments Gorilla penis costumeThere are red flying bugs, black crawling bugs and purple over-sexed, hot-and-horny slugs.
