TeXworks includes an integrated PDF viewer, based on the Poppler library, so there is no need to switch to an external program such as Acrobat, xpdf, etc., to view the typeset output. Although it is possible to configure a processing path based on DVI, newcomers to the TeX world need not be concerned with DVI at all, but can generally treat TeX as a system that goes directly from marked-up text files to ready-to-use PDF documents. The normal TeXworks workflow is PDF-centric, using pdfTeX and XeTeX as typesetting engines and generating PDF documents as the default formatted output. Qt also provides a rich application framework, facilitating the relatively rapid development of a usable product. The Qt toolkit was chosen for the quality of its cross-platform user interface capabilities, with native “look and feel” on each platform being a realistic target. To provide a similar experience across all systems, TeXworks is based on cross-platform, open source tools and libraries. It is deliberately modeled on Dick Koch’s award-winning TeXShop for Mac OS X, which is credited with a resurgence of TeX usage on the Mac platform. The TeXworks project is an effort to build a simple TeX front-end program (working environment) that will be available for all today’s major desktop operating systems-in particular, MS Windows (XP/Vista/7), typical GNU/Linux distros and other X11-based systems, as well as Mac OS X. ![]() Description: From the publisher's website:

1/10/2023 0 Comments Korean fried chicken wings![]() ![]() ![]() Korean-style fried chicken is similar to American fried chicken in that it has a crispy coating and juicy meat. Instructions on how to oven-fry (or air-fry) instead of deep-frying!.Step-by-step recipe instructions and photos.Answers to all your fried chicken questions.That’s the case for Gordo’s “Bon-Davi” Korean Fried Chicken recipe, which I’ve documented here. Sometimes, the best recipes come from those who enjoy eating more than those who enjoy cooking. The next time we got together, he made it for dinner, and it was out-of-the-ball-park homerun good. He proudly called it, not Bon-chon chicken, but Bon-Davi chicken, because he had developed the recipe himself after trying many different recipes. One day, I gave him a call to catch up, and he was in the midst of making his own soy garlic Korean fried chicken at home. I’ve known David-better known as Gordo-since kindergarten, and I have often called him in the midst of enjoying a takeout box of Bonchon chicken tenders! We often get together, the last time hiking at one of our favorite places, Mohonk Mountain. It’s also a favorite of my grade school buddy and retired Air Force veteran, David. When it comes to eating out, my favorite Korean fried chicken comes from a South Korean international chain- Bonchon Chicken, a restaurant with over 100 stores in North America and more across Asia. Korean fried chicken comes in many different forms, and though I’ve enjoyed it many times, I’ve never tried to make it at home-until now. ![]() One of the most distinguishing features of the Kindle lineup is its E-ink monochrome display.ĭesigned to mimic the touch and feel of paper, the E-ink display accomplishes this task by providing a rough, friction-induced touch interface. The bigger bezels and walls of the screen provide extra protection and grip. The 6.8" screen size is just right for a device like Paperwhite, which essentially fits in the palm of your hand. So, essentially you're getting the best of both worlds with this device. The Paperwhite has been the staple, not only among the E-reader circuit but also with the kindle range, and that's because it lies in the middle ground between the entry-level Kindle and the premium Oasis model. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite: Best in the Biz Here is a more comprehensive analysis of the Fire tablet and the Kindle Paperwhite. The Fire tablet is a do-it-all tablet with a custom Fire OS UI and Amazon's own App Store, whereas the Kindle is a single-purpose device designed for reading. ![]() Kindle Paperwhite is better than the Fire tablet for reading due to its e-ink display. The Fire Tablet line has also made its mark on the technology world by sticking ardently to its value-for-money proposition. The Kindle has redefined the E-Reader market with innovative features like its proprietary E-Ink display and unmatched battery life. Amazon, one of the world's most profitable and wealthiest companies, has also been the market leader in E-Readers, and to some degree, one of the most sought-after Tablet manufacturers. 1/10/2023 0 Comments Projectlibre change finish dateReferring to the image below, you may want to see how many hours it takes to complete a task. On the right of this window, is where you will see the project’s Gantt diagram -we will come back to this. Take a moment to change the ‘Duration’ from 1 day to 20 days and notice how the chart on the right changes. As seen in the table above, type in the appropriate field, the task’s ‘ Name‘, ‘ Duration‘ and ‘ Start‘ – the finish date is then calculated automatically. ![]() Adding Your First TaskĪfter you enter your project details you are ready to create your first task. And for good reason, you may be managing a project involving a scheduled event at a hotel. This means that the project has a mandatory, non-negotiable, end date. If ‘Forward Scheduled’ is unchecked, then you indicate the project’s finish date/deadline. Notes: I can do this with not problems using ProjectLibre!įorward Scheduled: If ‘ Forward Scheduled‘ is checked, then the project’s end date changes according to the task finish dates you enter.

What Does This Have to Do with Being a Financial Advisor? These industry leaders were wrong because people who are most successful in the old paradigm are less motivated to see when the new paradigm arrives. And in 1977, Ken Olsen, cofounder of Digital Equipment Corporation, said, “There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home.” 4 Other notable quotes include “I think there is a world market for about five computers,” which is credited to Thomas J. Harry Warner, cofounder of Warner Brothers Pictures, asked, “Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?” in 1927-the same year that The Jazz Singer brought sound to the movies. ![]() But in the early stages, some industry giants have difficulty seeing it. Once a new paradigm becomes dominant, the change is obvious. These shifts happen when a series of innovative steps coalesce into a new set of operating assumptions. Large companies fail and new ones take over: Netflix replaced Blockbuster Google replaced AltaVista. Barker observes, “A paradigm shift is a change to a new game, a new set of rules.” 2 He points out that when the rules change, the big winners in the old paradigm are seldom as successful: “When a paradigm shifts, everyone goes back to zero.” 3Ī paradigm shift is an enormous process for any industry. This means that we are uncomfortable with major changes. If Einstein was such a creative thinker that he literally redefined our view of the world, why did he reject one of the basic implications of quantum physics? What Exactly Is a Paradigm Shift?Įinstein was only human, and resistance is built in to the human brain. In 1926, he wrote that God “does not play dice” with the universe. As genius as Einstein was, he couldn’t accept the idea that the world was fundamentally chaotic. Quantum physics introduced uncertainty and chaos as essential aspects of the reality we live in. Surprisingly, some implications of the new paradigm were too alien and disturbing for Einstein to accept. Post hoc study results confirm the practical contribution of our research, demonstrating that several key findings are counter-intuitive to professional web designers.In 1905, Albert Einstein blew up the basic fabric of scientific thinking and paved the shift from Newtonian physics to quantum physics as a more accurate explanation for how the world works. Our findings extend time perception theories and contribute to the literature by identifying a potential paradigm shift, from the retrospective to the prospective paradigm, when waiting times are prolonged. Visual content should also be chosen to distract the user from time and temporal processing, as reminding users of the passage of time can encourage temporal processing and make the wait feel longer, especially in longer waits or when the amount of temporal visual content is high. Further, the benefits of providing visual content in longer waits are enhanced as more content is provided. However, with longer waits, additional visual content that distracts the user from the passage of time makes the wait feel shorter and reduces users' negative affect toward the wait. The results show that with shorter waits, providing additional visual content, such as a travel picture, may make the wait feel longer. Two empirical studies were conducted using an experimental travel website to test the proposed hypotheses. Based on time perception theories, we develop a research model of the effects of actual wait time, amount of information, and direction of attention on perceptions of the wait. While some research has examined how such delays can be reduced and how much delay online users will tolerate, little research has taken a theoretically grounded approach to managing perceptions of the wait. As one of the most commonly experienced problems on the Internet, download delay is a significant impediment to the success of e-commerce websites. 1/10/2023 0 Comments Coffee lake clover efiHere are all the ports enabled and working (except USB-C, not tested): For USB 3 ports, you can also use USB 2 devices on them, it will work. You don’t need USBInjectAll or the patch limit anymore.īoth USB 2 and USB 3 ports are working. You can find it in my EFI folder, it’s called USBPorts.kext. I created my own kext with Hackintool to map all the USB Ports on the back of the motherboard. ![]() HDMI Out (without audio on 10.15, see Status).Note: I use the Clover-Minimal Theme in my ist so if you only download my ist, be sure to either install this theme or change it to something you already have. IMac19,2 seems better for power management and upgradability (in case you want to add a dedicated GPU later). ( Update: Apparently this was a bug on macOS and it has been fixed in 10.14.6). I first chose Macmini8,1 because my config was similar to the new Mac Mini model but I recently changed my SMBIOS to iMac19,2 due to the black screen issue I was having while watching videos in full screen. You can use macserial to generate serials for the model you picked. If you use my EFI folder & BIOS Settings, you need to generate by yourself your serials and put them in the ist. UEFI Drivers (now located in EFI/Clover/drivers/UEFI):.This is already done in my ist available in this repo as of April 30th, 2020. They changed something and you have to add an ACPI Patch in your ist before the update, otherwise macOS won’t boot. If you are using a version older than F11, be careful if you want to update your BIOS to F11 or newer. You can find my BIOS Settings with pictures here. You can basically download the config file provided at the end of the vanilla guide, it works almost OOTB. If you go like me with only the integrated Intel GPU (UHD 630), a Coffee Lake CPU, and this motherboard, just follow the vanilla guide and read the “Coffee Lake” page carefully. The installation was pretty straight forward. Its configuration is close to the new mid-entry Mac Mini but with more RAM (16 instead of 8 Gb). I built my Hackintosh because I was disappointed with the price of the new Mac Mini 2018. Important: If you wish to upgrade to Catalina just like I did, don’t forget to install/use a recent version of Clover, at least Clover v5.0 r5107. To do that, I set-up the No-hda-gfx property in my ist file. Since I don’t use it, it was not a problem. To avoid the Kernel Panic after waking up, I had to disable the audio through HDMI. ![]() It fixed the problem but AppleALC, the kext that handles the Audio, was crashing my system (Kernel Panic) after waking up.
1/10/2023 0 Comments Shenmue 3 special edition![]() Su's Tall Tales" (you'll have to talk to Kong Mei at Panda Market to learn about Sun before you can do this) Now is the time to stop and focus on the next 3 subquests. When he tells you about the Verdant Bridge you will unlock the next story related trophy. Progress with the story until you seek out Mr. In this step you will unlock the following trophy: In this step you will complete the following subquests: Once you leave this house you should stop and focus on the first 3 subquests. When the game is over you will have to investigate a house for some clues. Once there you will be required to play a game with some kids. Focus on the story until you have access to Sunflower Grove. The beginning is mostly story progression. The maps are interactive so you can zoom in to see more precise locations of each item. Use these maps to help you locate every herb in the game as well as the capsule toy machines and subquests. I created two maps, one for each village/city you go to. To make things simple for you I just placed them at the end of each city. If they offer you a choice between an item and a fishing spot, always choose the fishing spot because there is no other way to unlock the few hidden fishing spots needed for the various fishing related trophies.Įven though this game has a lot of missable trophies, you can easily do most of them whenever you want once you reach the second city. If it's a physical item do not sell it for cash, you need several of the rewards to exchange later for exclusive move scrolls needed for the Technique Master trophy. Every time you complete a subquest you will earn a reward. I don't want to spoil the game for you so I will describe the specific story events, spoiler free.įor information about the how to complete subquests and when they are first available to complete see the trophy Good Karma for details. Each subquest is unlocked as you progress in the story so I will tell you when to pause your story and focus on which subquest. If you progress with the story too far then the old subquests will disappear when the newer ones are unlocked. Only a few subquests can be active at a single time. Subquests are like missable trophies, they can only be done at certain points in the game and you'll have to complete all subquests on one playthrough to obtain the trophy Good Karma. What is a subquest? A subquest is when you go and talk to a specific person and perform a small task for them, they're all very short and easy to complete. You play naturally until you've earned the next story related trophy then you stop and focus on certain subquests. This trophy guide is broken down into steps based on when you earn the few story related trophies. Now after 18 years, Yu Suzuki is presenting the long awaited sequel in the Shenmue saga. After fourteen years 69,320 fans helped kickstart Shenmue III by donating $6,333,295 on July 17th 2015. The sequel came shortly after then the third game was cancelled around the same time Sega exited the hardware market. Shenmue 1 was a revolutionary game when it first launched on the Sega Dreamcast way back in 1999. Approximate amount of time to platinum: 30+ hours ( Estimated Time to Platinum).Estimated trophy difficulty: 3/10 ( Platinum Difficulty Rating). ![]() Relic Hunter helps you locate Relics much easier if you're close to their locations, provided you have access to "The Darkness". This special DLC will grant you access to a new Darkness Power on Jackie's Talent Tree called, Relic Hunter. Also, if you have the Limited Edition of the game, you’ll have access to a free DLC code. I suggest using our Relic Locations Guide to help you collect them all. There is a total of 29 relics and they are collectible "Darkness" items scattered across the chapters. The last thing you should keep in mind is the Relics. They are "One Man Army", "The Bird is the Word", "That's Why I'm the Boss", "Romantic", and "Carnie Kid". These aren't considered missable, as anything you do happen to miss can be clean up in New Game+ after you completed the game on any difficulty. There are a small few trophies that you should be aware of though. As you play through the game you'll unlock more Darkness Powers, which will help you clean up the remaining combat related trophies you didn't unlock the 1st time through. Almost all of them will unlock naturally for you without even trying for them. There's really no need to worry about grinding out the kill or combat related trophies. You'll unlock every story related trophy as you progress. Just simply enjoy the story and play the game as you normally would. It'll take you about an average of about 5-7 hours to beat the story. Not to mention that this game is very, very short. You'll receive more Essence towards upgrading all of Jackie's Darkness Powers, which will make your New Game+ Don difficulty playthrough even easier. Begin a New Game on Thug difficulty instead. ![]() It's completely optional and every trophy in this game can be obtained without ever going online.Īlthough, there's a trophy for completing the game on Don Difficulty, there's no need to play it from the start you will need to play this game twice anyways. Keep in mind that certain Hit List is only available online, while others can be played offline. ![]() This means you can play Vendettas as a co-op campaign, or take on the Hit List. All Vendettas trophies can be done either alone or cooperatively online. Although this is considered an offline platinum title. Most of it is either single player or Vendettas mode related. Trophy-wise, the list is very solid and straightforward. The Darkness II is an awesome, yet short game.

The reactor on the left produces input for the reactors on the right. Yet, you can probably notice that two operators, a red an a blue circle, assemble a molecule from atoms. Below is a screenshot of a regular level, which looks like nothing as a static image. Yet, from one stage to another, you either write functions (regular levels) or programs (production levels). A lot of people die, and for some reason there are enormously large monsters to defeat as well. According to the story, you work for a corporation called SpaceChem that exploits various planets for resources. ![]() The input are atoms and molecules, and so is the output. In the game, you transform inputs into outputs using a visual programming language. You progress through a series of puzzles that are connected with a story that may as well not exist as it is rather disconnected from the actual gameplay. SpaceChem is a “design puzzle” game, according to Zach Barth. Also, even if the Steam client had been online, a significant part of my play time consisted of me closing my laptop and working solutions out with pencil and paper. I can’t give a precise figure because I played the game offline, so the Steam application could not track the time. I put more than 100 hours into SpaceChem, which makes it my second most-played game in my life, after Tetris in various iterations (original Game Boy, NES,, and Puyo Puyo Tetris on Nintendo Switch). ![]() I quit playing SpaceChem after solving a few of the curated user-generated puzzles of the ResearchNET section, for reasons which I will mention below. If anything, professional game journalism would be a tad less useless if reviewers stated how competent they are at a given game, or at least how familiar they are with the genre the game they have been reviewing belongs to. I don’t mention this to brag, but to give the reader some background. With very few exceptions, my solutions are far above average, and commonly in the top quintile if not the top few percentiles in terms of cycles used. ![]() I did not consult any outside resources, neither solutions nor hints. I took some time off because I did not make any progress on it for a while. During that time, I took two breaks of about one week each, one after a boss fight I thought was poorly implemented, which temporarily sapped my enthusiasm for SpaceChem (details later), and another when I got stuck at what is arguably the most difficult problem in the game (Omega-Pseudoethyne). I played through the story mode, the Corvi 63 DLC, and the Moustachium bonus levels in the span of about two months. I’d say I took the game as seriously as a part-time job as I found it extremely captivating. Just like with a Nintendo-hard game from decades ago, you need a tremendous amount of persistence.Īs a full disclosure, unlike the vast majority of people who have reviewed SpaceChem online, I am part of the very small minority of players who did finish the campaign, and then some. While there are almost no demands on mechanical skills, the game tests you in other ways, namely abstract thinking. SpaceChem feels like a throwback to those days, but only in the abstract. That kind of challenge was largely one of execution, however. Developers could not get a lot of content into a game as memory was limited. “Nintendo hard”, which was a consequence of memory limitations. Furthermore, back in the days of the Nintendo Entertainment System, games were normally punishingly difficult, i.e. In comparison, to advance in a skill-based platforming game - think of Super Mario games - you need to learn how to control your avatar better. Instead, your avatar becomes more powerful. To illustrate this, think of the vast majority of games that offer “RPG elements”, where the stats that define your character grow. Instead, they are a sedative grind, rewarding you for the time spent doing mundane tasks instead of pushing your skill as a player. The main reason I am put off by most video games is that they do not offer much of a challenge. Yet, when Zach Barth mentioned that less than two percent of players were able to finish the story mode of SpaceChem, I was intrigued. What is not true for all of them is that they are punishingly difficult. That is true for all games Zachtronics has released. He pointed out that puzzles in Zachtronics games have multiple solutions, which may also have to take tradeoffs into account, which is similar to engineering problems. He talked about the design philosophy behind their games and briefly covered aspects where he thought SpaceChem went wrong. A few months ago, though, I came across a presentation by Zach Barth, the mastermind behind SpaceChem and the subsequent games released by Zachtronics. It did not immediately grab my attention, so it spent years unplayed in my Steam library. I bought SpaceChem years ago, but only launched it once. |
