Given Square Enix’s history, I don’t really expect to offer the “Become as Gods Edition” to Steam owners as a free upgrade. However, there is still a 60fps lock (and there is no word yet on whether the K&M controls are better). Furthermore, it appears to be running smoother than the Steam version, and does not suffer from the choppy pre-rendered cut-scenes.

4/29/2023 0 Comments Free texting app with fake number![]() ThickButtons, a free app, anticipates the most likely letters you’ll need as you type a word, and enlarges those letters as you’re typing. Android phone users have a new typing option. The free service features music videos from YouTube, which often means you get high-quality music files free - after you’ve picked through the clutter of lip-synching teenagers. Muziic, a popular on-demand music service, has introduced its first iPhone app. Slacker Mobile works on devices with Windows Mobile version 6.5, and remains free. Windows phone owners who are fans of Slacker’s personalized radio service finally have their app. Contrary to common belief a few years ago, texting is still alive and growing. Next time we’re hanging out and he gets an “important” call, I’m not buying it. With the advent of messaging apps and services such as WhatsApp and Viber, one would have thought that SMS and texting will die soon. So maybe we’re not as tight as I had hoped. President Obama: Hey, good to hear from you! President Obama: I’m bummed out about the weather. President Obama: Anything exciting happening? Me: I want to attend the Seder, actually. President Obama: You crack me up! Hey, want to do stand-up comedy with me? The phone number generator provides a random phone number so you can sign up for any app or website without giving your real phone number. President Obama: Should I call the doctor? Even before you weigh the quality of those replies, though, you’re bound to notice that the app shoots back replies far faster than any human could type.Īnd then you’ll notice the replies themselves are often not exactly what you had in mind. The second approach is to trust that the app’s “conversation engine” will respond intelligently to whatever you type. First, you can program it to respond however you like whenever your message contains key words. It lets you conduct two types of fake, but spontaneous, SMS conversations. On the other end of the spectrum is PunkSMS ($1 for iPhone). It’s for Zen tricksters, who don’t want to clutter their mischief with too many options. Gotta Go also “sends” a reply text, although it delivers it to a dummy address that quickly returns a failure notice.įake-A-Text ($1 for iPhone) is a quick and simple competitor that gives you one page to type a contact name, a message of 140 characters or less, and a timer. But since other fake call apps simply deliver you to the iPhone’s home screen when you unlock the phone, Gotta Go is much better in that respect. It opens a “new message” screen, so you could get busted at this point, since you’re ostensibly replying. And when you unlock the screen to get the text, it opens the SMS app on a screen where you can reply. When the message is delivered to the phone’s home screen, the text looks convincing enough.

4/29/2023 0 Comments Salchichon chimex chihuahua![]() She also breeds her dogs often twice a year as one of my pup's mother is pregnant again, it's horrible how she treats these animals and her selling practices are shady as she does not get them vet checked because she knows the pups are sick! It is a state law as of August 2011 that Brenda K Mattson provide the buyer with CVI papers, if you don't get them you may be getting a sick, sick pup. I know there are other families out there that lost a pup from her because she told me so. It is a certificate of veterinarian inspection that the pup is healthy, My pups were far from healthy and my Vet is willing to testify in court when I sue her for my money. Also she did not give me CVI papers for each pup I received. I don't know what they are dying from she did mention she had a virus run through the kennel, but neglect seems to stick out in my mind as hypoglycemia is easily treated. The reason I am posting this is during the time my six pups died some 10 other pups died. ![]() She claims she loves these animals, well if you loved them they would not die of hypoglycemia and malnutrition. I made the mistake of paying up front for all of them and look now she can't even pay me back. People if you decide to buy from her make sure you get CVI papers and only pay the minimum deposit until the pup is in your hands. I paid for the eleven pups and she owes me $1350 still and ignores my emails asking for payment. They had coccicidia, hook worms, round worms and malnutrition (pot bellies). I received five pups from her that were so sick it took over $1000 to get them healthy. In a period of two and half months six of the eleven died from hypoglycemia to causes Brenda K Mattson (breeder) could or would not explain. I was purchasing 11 pups to start a breeding program. 4/28/2023 0 Comments Dog knapsack![]() Shop dog carrier backpacks and more today.

However, this percentage varies depending on a number of factors such as your dog’s breed, physical fitness and energy level. 10-12% of your dog’s body weight is a good starting point for a load weight. If your dog is new to wearing packs, start with wearing the harness without any contents and slowly work up to heavier loads. 4/28/2023 0 Comments Passwordwallet![]() I feel stupid for having taking the time a few years ago to manually move my data from 1Password’s Notes field into custom fields/sections.)įor the near term, I will likely use a mixed setup. So migrating my nearly 2,000 entries would have been impractical if I hadn’t been able to write some code to massage the JSON-like 1PIF into a format suitable for PasswordWallet’s CSV/TSV importer. (Sidenote: During this process I learned that 1Password’s CSV export-with “All Fields” selected-does not actually export all of the fields, and that the 1PIF export format is undocumented. So, by the time of Teare’s announcement, I had already investigated some alternatives, selected PasswordWallet (based in part on a recommendation from Wolf Rentzsch), and converted one of my vaults. Additionally, it doesn’t work with 1PasswordAnywhere, doesn’t work with 1Password’s local backup feature, and maintains only a partial local cache (attachments not guaranteed). I took this as a signal to start looking at other options, because the centralized cloud model, while very convenient for most customers and for AgileBits’ support people, seems inherently less secure to me and won’t work with Little Snitch blocking all network access. Reading between the lines, the strong implication was that they wanted at least the option to go cloud-only in version 7 without going back on their word. They seemed to be trying to thread a needle by specifically not promising continued support for local vaults, conflating this with not commenting on future product directions in general and the idea that all software eventually breaks, and then saying there was nothing to worry about because they have no plans to actively remove the feature. Even if we bring local vaults forward in a hypothetical new version of 1Password which does not yet exist, that’s not to say that the subsequent version will continue that I know it’s not the answer you want, but we will never publicly commit to Dropbox, iCloud, or local vaults for the future. This partial commitment is nice to hear, although it would have been nicer a few days ago when I asked about support for standalone vaults beyond version 6 and the response was: But 1Password memberships are indeed awesome and are the best way to use 1Password, and as such, I am going to continue to nudge you over when ever I can □ 1Password 6 and even 1Password 7 will continue to support standalone vaults. We know that not everyone is ready to make the jump yet, and as such, we will continue to support customers who are managing their own standalone vaults. Many Mac users worry that the same fate awaits 1Password 6 for Mac, and that we will remove support for local vaults and force them to pay again. ![]() These worries are compounded by the fact that 1Password 6 for Windows was designed from the ground up to support 1Password Teams customers only (and then later expanded to include family and individual plans), and we are unsure how this adventure will play out on the Windows side of the world, so we haven’t made any public announcements about when support for standalone vaults will be added, if ever. After all, many have corporate policies or regional restrictions that prevent them from using a hosted solution like ours, and so they’re understandably concerned and want to know that there’s a future for them with 1Password. As great as 1Password memberships are, I know that our excitement for them can cause some people to become worried. Now the thing is, I know it’s not realistic to expect everyone to be able to be able to join one of our memberships at this time.

A shaped section on the lówer edge of the transducer also assists in pattern recognition. This change is then evaluated by the monitoring unit which rejects signals uncharacteristic of those caused by a toddler slipping or falling into a pool. Thus any ripple on the surface will be translated by the sensor into a corresponding capacitance change. The sensor consists of a double sided 'PC board' which in effect is a capacitor, the value of which depends upon the depth by which it is submerged in water. ![]() Because of this prior involvement, we were most interested to see a pool alarm system manufactured by the US company Stevens Associates - imported into Australia by Rudi Hoess of Electronic Concepts, Clarence Street, Sydney This is a most elegant design. 0 much better than others, none is wholly satisfactory. We have tested most of these devices and while some work m S. Other systems monitor `noise' via a submerged hydrophone whilst yet others monitor wave patterns relative to the pool side. Most currently available alarms monitor wave patterns, usually via a floating sensor consisting of three or more `fixed' floats and one able to move vertically relative to the fixed floats. Such alarms are harder to design than might at first appear because they must discriminate between a true alarm situation and false indications caused by other physical transients such as wind -induced ripples, loud noises, local electrical disturbances, etc. Hence the recent proliferation of alarms which purport to warn of children slipping or tumbling into a pool. And whilst local councils generally specifiy that home pools must be protected by a substantial fence, such fences often do little more than present a challenge for a toddler to surmount. ti., / Many children drown each year in home swimming pools. s 12 ELECTRONICS TODAY INTERNATIONAL - JULYĤ News Digest Pool Alarm 0 HIGH I WATER.

In 2019, world production of ginger was 4.1 million tonnes, led by India with 44% of the world total. The distantly related dicots in the genus Asarum are commonly called wild ginger because of their similar taste.Īlthough used in traditional medicine and as a dietary supplement, there is no good evidence that consuming ginger or its extracts has any effect on human health or as a treatment for diseases. ![]() Ginger is one of the first spices to have been exported from Asia, arriving in Europe with the spice trade, and was used by ancient Greeks and Romans. It was transported with them throughout the Indo-Pacific during the Austronesian expansion ( c. Ginger originated in Maritime Southeast Asia and was likely domesticated first by the Austronesian peoples. Ginger is in the family Zingiberaceae, which also includes turmeric ( Curcuma longa), cardamom ( Elettaria cardamomum), and galangal. The inflorescences bear flowers having pale yellow petals with purple edges, and arise directly from the rhizome on separate shoots. It is a herbaceous perennial which grows annual pseudostems (false stems made of the rolled bases of leaves) about one meter tall bearing narrow leaf blades. Ginger ( Zingiber officinale) is a flowering plant whose rhizome, ginger root or ginger, is widely used as a spice and a folk medicine. 4/28/2023 0 Comments Anemometer.![]() This type of anemometer doesn’t need to point towards the source to sense the wind speed. They’re mostly designed to be mounted on structures such as buildings or sailboats, but some handheld models are also available. To calculate the speed of the wind blow, the number of rotations are counted and calibrated on a digital or analog wind meter. As wind levels pick up, the cups spin faster, with the instrument capturing the speed of the wind which is then shown on a digital display. They feature a set of either three or four cups that spin on a mounted pole by the wind. These are the simplest type and among the most accurate. Cup anemometers are highly reliable and rugged. These are most likely, the oldest form of anemometers and they have been around for centuries. Height of anemometer placement is important for accuracy of wind speed measurement, as well as location in comparison to obstructions such as trees and buildings and canyons.Types of Thermometers: All You Need to Know Both sonic anemometers and cup anemometers can be obtained with heating options. Heated anemometers are important for use in cold environmental conditions. This wind information allows the flight professionals to know when freezing rain and icing are likely to be a danger. The angle between the vertical and the ball is measured and this provides an estimate of the speed of wind.Ī plate anemometer uses a flat plate that is deflected by wind from where it is suspended.Ī tube anemometer measures wind speed by measuring pressure of wind blown into a tube.Īnemometers are extremely important at airports where wind data is vital for safety. This anemometer relies in resonating acoustic waves to determine air speed.Ī ping-pong anemometer uses a ping-pong ball attached to a string that blows in the wind. Vane anemometers look like a propeller or windmill and their axis is horizontal as opposed to the cup anemometer whose axis is vertical.Ī hot wire anemometer uses a hot wire and wind measurements are taken as air flow passes the wire and cools it.Ī laser Doppler anemometer uses a laser that is divided into two beams and calculates the speed of introduced particles in the air which allows for determining the speed of air around the anemometer.Īn ultrasonic anemometer measures the speed of wind by measuring wind velocity based on ultrasonic sound waves.Īn acoustic resonance anemometer is a more modern version of the sonic anemometer. These measurements can help increase the aerodynamic design of these vehicles because these measurements are used in design. ![]() Laser anemometers are used to help determine the flow of air speed around vehicles and airplanes, as well as for spacecraft. The most common anemometers are vane anemometers, cup anemometers, thermal anemometers, and thermal anemometers with velocity temperature profiling ability.Īnemometers are important for several reasons including weather reporting and forecasting, the study of air movement, weather patterns, flight, and engineering. They can also be used to measure wind speed of airflow in a contained environment. Today there are a variety of anemometer designs.Īnemometers can be used to determine wind speed in an uncontained environment such as in the open air outside. One of the simplest anemometers is the cup anemometer invented by Dr. It has not changed much since then although some later anemometer inventions were mistakenly credited as the first. The first mechanical anemometer was invented by Leon Battista Alberti in approximately 1450. Any tool used to measure the speed of wind in the science of meteorology is referred to as an anemometer. The word anemometer is derived from the word 'anemos' - a Greek word that means 'wind'. An anemometer is a weather tool that is used to measure the wind's speed. |
