![]() To anyone but those directly involved in the match, this was an unspeakably tedious spectacle. ![]() That maximises the speed boost from bouncing off the wall, and, with luck, propels the worm up and around. The trick is to extend the rope fully, smack into a solid surface, and then retract. With some effort, it's possible to swing 180 degrees and beyond-eventually landing on top of the platform the worm is swinging from. They're also consistent in their implementation, which led us to a great understanding of their potential. Worms' rope mechanics are, in essence, bizarre. We'd place them above the level, both to protect our own guys from air strikes and to have more surfaces to grapple on to. With these rules, a worm can travel from one side to the other-their turn ending only if they take fall damage. You can use the ninja rope multiple times per turn, and we gave ourselves unlimited time to make our way across the map. Friends and I would play multiplayer matches with a very specific set of rules: no turn timer, unlimited girders, and unrestricted access to the grappling hook (or "ninja rope," as it's called in-game). ![]() There's another traversal tool that I consistently love in games: the grappling hook. My appreciation for good grappling hooks-and good here doesn't mean realistic-started with the original version of Worms. Sometimes it's nice to tell gravity to go and do one. I like Prototype-a game in which you can run up, and leap off, and glide over buildings-even though a part of me suspects that it's really a bit rubbish. I'm a somewhat overweight guy in his thirties. If I can move around a game in interesting ways, then I will probably like it. Monkey Bee has one of the most distinct middle-sections I've yet to see emerge from Audiosurf's level generator.Ī satisfying traversal system isn't the only thing I look for in a game, but it is one of a few broad areas that define my taste. Ship-based stealth levels are tighter and more claustrophobic than their inevitable "big warehouse" counterpart. If you go back through the Why I Love articles I've written to date- stealth on ships, TF2's Scout or playing Chinese-style opera in Audiosurf-all have, to a greater or lesser extent, been about systems or experiences that change how you traverse through a level. Today, we get into the swing, as Phil explains his love of grappling hooks. In Why I Love, PC Gamer writers pick an aspect of PC gaming that they love and write about why it's brilliant.

![]() I originally created the scenario for OTTD 0.6.3 in 2008, but in the past few days have updated it to OTTD 1.6.1. I prefer to play the game without other competitors. Years ago, one friend concentrated upon Holy Island, gave it ferries and an airport, and turned it into a mini Las Vegas. If you wish you can develop Berwick, South Shields or even Alwinton. This is large for normal play, but the player can concentrate on particular areas of interest. I have placed many industries in reasonably accurate places,īut I have added fictitious industries and resources to improve the gameplay. I have deliberately kept towns and villages small so that there is plenty of room for development. It also has places which are a convenient distance apart for road and rail building. I have tended to concentrate on south east Northumberland, where I was born and brought up, because it hasĬoal mines and a power station. It stretches from north of Berwick to south of GatesheadĪnd out beyond Haydon Bridge to the west. The positions of towns and villages are estimated. This was my first attempt at an OTTD scenario. If you have any difficulties installing the game or find any problems don't hesitate to get back to me. Unprofessionally impatient, about the game. I have to admit that I have rushed into putting this on-line without completing my testing. When you are familiar with the game, try my Northumberland scenario. With modern screen is probably worth going into the Game Options and setting Interface size to Double Size. There is an on-line tutorial which is worth looking at, after that it's easy to learn by just messing about. ![]() If you are new to Transport Tycoon, and its variants, I suggest that you install OpenTTD and try it out with a few simple games and become familiar with it. This requires very careful planning of the railway layout and the signalling. The greatest challenges are probably in creating complex rail systems running several trains along the same track. That makes it a challenging business simulation. Then the game becomes very serious.īuses, trains and ships breakdown and in due course need replacing with newer models. However there is a temptation to create complex railĪnd roads systems to move goods and people around more efficiently. If you create only a few simple train and bus routes the game can be relaxing. It retains the appearance and feel of the original game, but has been greatly enlarged and had improvements added. These enthusiasts created OpenTTD a free open source, Windows version of Transport Tycoon. It could be a very challenging game and attracted a cult following. It had wonderful graphics and was great fun to play. The game started off in the 1990s as Transport Tycoon running under MSDOS, that was before Windows. If the transport system is well managed the towns and villages prosper and grow. Then trains, road vehicles, shipsĪnd aircraft are added and given routes to transport people between towns and goods from mines and factories to consumers. It is game in which the player builds railway, roads, ports and airfields. ![]() Way back in 2008 I developed an Open Transport Tycoon scenario based upon Northumberland. ![]() LinkedIn sets this cookie for LinkedIn Ads ID syncing.

And the game where you have to ride on a moose was staggering to say the least. If you play alone you won’t feel absolute joy while playing the butt-controlled mini games, but once some of your friends head over to your house, you will be amazed by the pure awesomeness of watching someone sitting on his butt skiing. To put this straight: In general the Balance Board games work out rather well. This is the really interesting part now, and probably the one a lot of gamers consider to be important when they try to make a decision on this game. Just don’t expect to find future all-time classics in the game. ![]() Generally speaking, I was pleasantly surprised. The “Cult Movies” soundtrack imitates the style of classic movie soundtracks. Most of the time sound is decent and supports the scenery really well. The “Top of the Flops” games let you listen to cover versions of songs like “Ladies Night”, “Toxic” or “Born to be Wild”. But at least you always know which game you're playing, no matter how drunk you are. Sometimes it will make you laugh (when one of the little guys has to wear some ugly clothes for example, just for the fact that it fits the scenery so damn well). To put it more precisely, there is just one way for the Rabbids to communicate with you and that is by screaming (don’t worry there are text boxes as well). Yeah, the infamous sound of the “Raving Rabbid Scream” will haunt you quite a lot in the game. If you succeed you will see a funny advertisement and get some form of advantage for the rest of the mini game In the following advertisement you will have to perform a certain movement with your remote to make something happen. You will have to feed a moose with steaks or rescue a Rabbid who jumps from a sky scraper.Īdvertisements - sometimes the game will ask you to press the 1 button on your remote for a short break. Trash TV/Macho TV - in Trash TV you will play through some sports or show based mini games. Personally I liked “cult movies” the most. The special element is that you have to shoot the bunnies that don’t fit into the scene, like dinosaur or barbarian Rabbids. You will play through scenes that mimic some classic movie themes, like mafia movies, classic horror films or Outta Space scenes. You will play to (more or less) famous pop and rock songs (all cover versions, though).Ĭult Movies - the shooter games. Top of the Flops - play drums, guitar, keyboard, or do the vocals. There are different “channels” most games fit into, among these are: It would need an endless amount of space to discuss every single mini game TV Party offers, but I want to give you a short overview of what to expect. ![]() Well, besides the cartoon style, which makes for about 20-30% of the playtime. All in all there is not much to complain about. On the other hand it still looks almost exactly like the first game in the series, which is a bit of a let-down considering this is the Wii’s third Christmas already. The game runs fluently, I didn’t discover any annoying slow downs or glitches. Besides that the graphics haven't changed a lot. The mini games themselves still feature the bunnies in their 3D version (and honestly, I am glad for it). But hey, at least it fits the theme of the game rather well. It looks like a mix of cell shading and flash animation, which is a bit weird. It is up to you to decide whether the cartoon style is awesome or annoying. In an attempt to fit the TV image better the Rabbids now appear in a rather cartoonish form, at least during the occasional advertisements (more about that later), the menu and the sequences that introduce each mini game. ![]() It is up to you to select which show will be shown at which time. Instead of selecting mini games from a typical menu there is a timetable that shows the programme. As the title suggests the game is now structured like a TV channel. Suddenly they are hit by lighting and Rayman, thinking he is safe after entering his house, realizes that the Rabbids are trapped in his TV now.įirst of all: Yes, there are some changes and I would like to point them out. The first render sequence shows them hunting for Rayman who tries to escape. The Rabbids still want to take over the world. Usually I would talk about the story now but there isn't much to tell in this case. VGChartz has reviewed the game for you, but does it live up to the prequels? This year the young series sees its third instalment on Nintendo’s waggle console. By VGChartz Staff, posted on 22 November 2008 / 9,006 ViewsĪ famous videogame character, a new control scheme on a new console, and loads of crazy Rabbids whose infamous “BWAAAAAAHH!” can be heard from miles away – who wouldn’t buy such a game? Ubisoft probably thought so as well, releasing the first Raving Rabbids game just in time for the Wii's launch and its sequel only a year later. Several of Rudd's songs incorporate socially conscious themes, such as spirituality, humanity, environmentalism and the rights of Indigenous Australians. ![]() Since the release of his last studio album “Spirit Bird”, the single member “Follow The Sun” became his biggest success in Holland, being at the top of the national radios and still in numerous tables and playlists of Spotify, which earned him the presence in some of the most popular European festivals. Xavier Rudd (born ) is an Australian singer, songwriter, musician, and multi-instrumentalist. ![]() Rudd began his career in 2002 with the debut album “To Let” before launching seven LP’s in these thirteen years: “Solace” (2004), “Food In The Belly” (2005), “White Moth” (2007), “Dark Shades Of Blue” (2008), “Koonyum Sun” (2010), “Spirit Bird” (2012) and its first Album in partnership with the United Nations “Nanna” (2015). This new Record “Storm Boy” that featured the production of Chris Bond (Ben Howard, Tom Speight) and the mix of Tim Palmer (Pearl Jam, David Bowie, U2) comes to reinforce the enormous creative talent of Xavier Rudd. ![]() Everything Rudd does enters his music, such as his environmentalist and activist work, vegan food, surfing and family. Australian singer, songwriter and instrumentalist Xavier Rudd has confirmed his passage at NOS Alive’19 on July 11th After two sold-out concerts last year in Portugal presenting the new album “Storm Boy”, Xavier plays at Sagres Stage of NOS Alive.įor the artist, write and live his life are one, in which he affirms that it composes only about what surrounds it. They are mission critical must-haves for day one, otherwise people are going to fall back to windows or X11 desktops that didn’t have these obnoxious limitations. This is not optional, and it isn’t acceptable to suggest these features may be available in the future as a justification for an incomplete deployment today. My wife and kids who are not in tech rely on screen sharing teleconferencing. I just tested my screen sharing applications and they all produce black screens under wayland □ But the thing is it’s still not working today. While I find it unfortunate, I can live with an inferior design as long as it does in fact work. But most users don’t care how it works, just that it works. Shifting functionality into compositors will probably result in a patchwork of support depending on what desktop software you are running, which is lousy. Honestly they’re “close”, but they need to do the rest… Yeah, it gets frustrating when devs don’t have respect for their users’ needs. Leaving all the functionality up to the compositors is pretty stupid, and having a generic API for such things is rather useful… This is a poor design IMHO.Īlso hate the fact the Xorg devs are doing this as most have switched to developing Wayland before it is quite as capable. I absolutely hate that these basic features are going to be broken/unimplemented/incompatible depending on which compositor one is using for their desktop. If we need a security mechanism to lock down the privileges, that’s fine, but at least then we’ll get a standard solution that works everywhere. What if I want to use VLC to stream my desktop? Now I have to petition to add a VLC capture protocol to the compositor? Hogwash! Obviously it makes more sense to have one generic API for all applications to use. I don’t want VNC/RDP to be hard coded into the compositor. The refusal to support a standard capture API for purely dogmatic reasons leads to more bloat and cruft downstream. ![]() IMHO we’re looking at poor designs steming from wayland’s limitations. There are proposals to hard code support for RDP & VNC into the compositors themselves, ![]() Some protocols which are relevant to VNC servers that have not been agreed upon between different compositors are: Consequently every single compositor needs to implement the missing functionality, which doesn’t offer any greater security and creates a ton of new portability issues… Progress has been very slow for things like vnc because unfortunately wayland refuses to add generic support for screen grabbing, even under security privileges. I am on board as soon as I see them address these bugs & limitations, but if their attitude is “no you can’t do that, we don’t allow it” because their own justifications are more important than our needs, sorry but that’s lazy and the community deserves better. There are tools and capabilities I need to do my work that, so far, don’t work with wayland. IMHO a big problem with the wayland project is that they haven’t been pragmatic with regards to use cases. I’d be happy to use it once they’ve fixed wayland’s limitations. My laptop already runs GNOME for this very reason. GNOME can be made usable with extensive use of extensions, and I’m seriously considering switching to it once the NVIDIA situation is sorted. Second, my desktop environment of choice, Cinnamon, does not support Wayland and has no support coming in the pipeline, which is really disappointing. ![]() There’s still two major blockers, though – first, NVIDIA support is problematic, at best, so my main computer will remain on X until NVIDIA gets its act together. I try to use Wayland wherever possible, since the performance gains and battery life improvements are just too good to ignore. Ubuntu with GNOME Shell on Wayland has been available as a non-default choice but the hope is now in 2021 they are ready to comfortably switch to Wayland. Ubuntu is going to be trying to switch over to using Wayland by default for the current Ubuntu 21.04 cycle to allow sufficient time for widespread testing and evaluation ahead of next year’s Ubuntu 22.04 LTS release.Ĭanonical engineer Sebastien Bacher announced today they will be trying again for Ubuntu 21.04 to enable Wayland by default, four years after they originally tried but reverted back to using GNOME on X.Org for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and since that point. Known as a brain tonic, it can promote a healthier and happier mood as it improves concentration. This mushroom even reduces the amount of stress that users endure, relaxing the mind enough to think clearly and rationally. It promotes better sleep to help the brain rest after a long day, giving the user the time to renew the mental connections that can become weathered after a long day. Reishi mushrooms promote a healthier immune system, reducing the fatigue that becomes much too common when the mind becomes exhausted. In some cases, consumers have used Cordyceps Sinensis to help with opium addiction and to curb excessive weight loss.ĪLSO READ: Genbrain Reviews: Does It Work? Negative Side Effects or Real Benefits? Reishi Some of the conditions that Cordyceps Sinensis is thought to naturally treat include coughs, chronic bronchitis, kidney disorders, sexual disorders, anemia, and more. It is frequently touted as a way to promote natural energy, and it can protect the user from a multitude of medical issues. Read on below to learn about the way that each of the mushrooms support the body.Ĭordyceps Sinensis is meant to improve the way that the body uses oxygen, helping with blood flow and the delivery of nutrients to different organs (including the brain). The mushrooms included in this formula include:Īll of the ingredients are purely organic. Other nootropic formulas use botanicals and other important substances, but the use of strictly mushrooms provides users with a unique way to support their mind. The reason that this Brain Focus Boost formula works so well is because it includes three specific mushrooms. Plus, without the frustration of this balance, users will reduce the amount of stress that they deal with daily. Users don’t have to focus every bit of their energy into retaining knowledge while they study because these tasks will come easy to them. The mind can work on multiple levels at once, which is perfect for academic or work performance. This nootropic formula focuses on helping with memory, intelligence, attention, concentration, and cognition, ultimately helping the user to be happier. Users can completely erase the brain fog that they typically experience during their day, increasing the likelihood of success in other endeavors. Rather than making the individual feel frazzled or jittery, this formula creates a sense of mental clarity that other products don’t provide. Users can take this formula to start remembering every single thing that they hear, which is incredibly beneficial to students, professionals, and even stay-at-home parents. Mushroom Brain Boost triggers the neurotransmitters in the brain efficiently, claiming to help the user improve the speed of their memory. However, after viewing a few ingredient lists, they all start to look the same. These remedies fill the body with natural and safe ingredients that trigger neurotransmitters and reduce cortisol levels. Nootropics are rather popular in the industry today, and for a good reason – they work. These problems are more than a matter of being forgetful or tired the brain needs a boost. ![]() Even if this focus isn’t necessary to everyday moments, there are few things that become as frustrating as forgetting everything that was just said. Some people start to feel their focus failing when they are in an important business meeting while others drift off while they take a major test. Mental fog can come at the worst of times. The formula is found in just a couple of capsules, allowing users to take them at any time of the day for the best results. It’s a handy little tool.Mushroom Brain Boost is a daily supplement that helps consumers to eliminate mental fog to give the user a sharper mind and better memory. Scroll down the site, and Marinara Timer keeps track of how many Pomodoros you’ve completed and when you started and stopped them too.

Best Web-Based Solution: Marinara Timer (Free) Marinara Timer Here’s the best Pomodoro timer apps and websites out there. And before we get into details, want to know why it’s called Pomodoro? It’s named after the Italian word for tomato because Cirillo used a kitchen timer shaped like a tomato-just like the one seen above-as his personal timer while ironing out the time management technique. ![]() This kind of upgrade work is something it's so easy to put off for existing applications. Stimulus is also due for a 2.1 release in the near future, which will include a helpful debug mode, previous value passing on the ValueChanged callbacks, default values, and a few other overdue enhancements. We're up to beta 7 now, and will keep going on the beta process for a bit longer while clearing out the backlog of pull requests and issues, but then it'll soon be time for a proper 7.0 final release as well. I released a couple of new versions of Turbo/Turbo Rails, which both fixed a number of bugs, but also gave us some great new powers, like before/after actions, built-in method links, and deduping of existing elements on the append/prepend actions. There was enough steps in that process to warrant documenting them in the turbo-rails repository.Īs part of this work, I caught up with both the Turbo and Stimulus repositories. That was something the old turbolinks-rails gem included in the box, but turbo-rails does not (since it's not needed for greenfield work). Turbo Drive is a direct continuation of Turbolinks, but it still required a fair bit of work to update all the namespaced events, and ensure that the Ajax requests coming from Rails UJS would play nice with 302 redirects. The meat of the coexistence work was in replacing Turbolinks with Turbo. Although it was easy enough, I still managed to wrongly turn a few of these conversions into duplicate data-target attributes. The upgrade to Stimulus 2.0 (from 1.1) took a little more effort, but solely because we wanted to upgrade early to the new target format of data-target="" instead of data-target="." (to get rid of the deprecation warnings). Something you don't need to do if you're starting with Turbo from the beginning, like we did with HEY, but it's a small price to pay for coexistence. It also required that all these new forms and method links we want flowing through Turbo instead of Rails UJS be tagged with that data-turbo=true attribute. And if you are still using rails/jquery-ujs (like Basecamp!), there's a new version 1.2.3 with the updated selectors as well. ![]() Making this so required an upgrade to the UJS event handler selectors, which will be part of the next Rails release. In our new setup, Rails UJS is still there to handle data-remote/data-method forms and links for the legacy code, but it leaves alone any link or form tagged with data-turbo=true. Yay!īasecamp 3 was originally built with Rails UJS, Turbolinks, and Stimulus. While existing JavaScript code stays as it is, we're now set for all our future development to use Turbo Frames, Turbo Streams, and Stimulus 2.0. It's not like we rewrote all the JavaScript we have to make this happen. Although upgrading is perhaps a big word. Hotwire is now powering Basecamp 3 on the alpha version we're running internally, and I thought it'd be helpful to document the upgrade process. ![]() Updated plot() function with arguments for specification of plot options (in any order after the third argument).Variable spacing of x values in plot (unless step size is used).Option to plot real and imaginary parts separately (enabled by default).The command to install EPEL repo on your system is mentioned below.

It helps us measure the total data moving -in and -out in connections. iftopĬommand iftop provides a real time monitoring of network bandwidth besides your server. Some of the tools like nload read the ‘/proc/net/dev’ file to get traffic stats, whereas some tools use the ‘pcap’ library to capture all packets and then calculate the total size to estimate the traffic load. The tools have different mechanisms of generating the traffic report. Below we will discuss top commands to monitor CentOS.
