One inscription gives the address of a woman named Novellia Primigenia of Nuceria, a prostitute, apparently of great beauty, whose services were much in demand. The eruption of Vesuvius preserved graffiti in Pompeii, which includes Latin curses, magic spells, declarations of love, insults, alphabets, political slogans, and famous literary quotes, providing insight into ancient Roman street life. Ancient graffiti displayed phrases of love declarations, political rhetoric, and simple words of thought, compared to today's popular messages of social and political ideals. Graffiti in the classical world had different connotations than they carry in today's society concerning content. The ancient Romans carved graffiti on walls and monuments, examples of which also survive in Egypt. Located near a mosaic and stone walkway, the graffiti shows a handprint that vaguely resembles a heart, along with a footprint, a number, and a carved image of a woman's head. Local guides say it is an advertisement for prostitution. The first known example of "modern style" graffiti survives in the ancient Greek city of Ephesus (in modern-day Turkey). Safaitic dates from the first century BC to the fourth century AD. The only known source of the Safaitic language, an ancient form of Arabic, is from graffiti: inscriptions scratched on to the surface of rocks and boulders in the predominantly basalt desert of southern Syria, eastern Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia. Use of the word has evolved to include any graphics applied to surfaces in a manner that constitutes vandalism. The term graffiti originally referred to the inscriptions, figure drawings, and such, found on the walls of ancient sepulchres or ruins, as in the Catacombs of Rome or at Pompeii. įigure graffito, similar to a relief, at the Castellania, in Valletta Graffiti has become visualized as a growing urban "problem" for many cities in industrialized nations, spreading from the New York City subway system and Philadelphia in the early 1970s to the rest of the United States and Europe and other world regions. In most countries, marking or painting property without permission is considered by property owners and civic authorities as defacement and vandalism, which is a punishable crime, citing the use of graffiti by street gangs to mark territory or to serve as an indicator of gang-related activities. Graffiti ranges from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings, and has existed since ancient times, with examples dating back to ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and the Roman Empire (see also mural). Graffiti (plural singular graffiti or graffito, the latter rarely used except in archeology) is art that is written, painted or drawn on a wall or other surface, usually without permission and within public view.

I find that on a lot of bags a bend in the zipper results in snags, this has not been an issue with the YKK’s on the Fit Pack 3. I can comment to the fact that a pair of size 9’s fit with ease. Aer’s specs list this as being able to fit up to a size 13 shoe. The padding is a nice touch, as most of these pockets are just fleece lined.ĭoing a 180 and hitting the bottom of the bag, here is where we find the vented stowaway shoe compartment. Aer lists this as “with a soft lining.” And it is pretty soft, I’ve been tossing my cell phone in here with no worries at all. Moving to the top of the bag we have a padded quick access pocket. They are a decent size, and can accommodate a few different sizes of water bottle. Working from the outside in, we have two exterior water bottle pockets. With that simple breakdown out of the way, lets get into the meat. The gist of the bag is this, the rear of the bag is set up all your work/EDC needs while the long zipper compartment in the front is for all your other….well stinky gym clothes. The Fit Pack 3 is nicely divided to keep your work stuff separate from your workout gear. it’s dare I say… the perfect grab handle. It was one of the first things I noticed about the bag. I don’t want to sing any unnecessary praises about any product, but for some reason I love this grab handle. In addition to the shoulder straps, we have a great top carry handle. I found the Fit Pack 3 to wear well on me, and I didn’t have either of these issues. I have an old left shoulder injury, and some bags seem to droop off my left shoulder, or hurt if the straps are too stiff. With a full load in the bag, I find it carries very well. So when I leave the house, I am loaded for bear. Since spring mornings are still pretty cold, I prefer to do my runs in the afternoon when the sun has been kind enough to warm the air. Testing in early 2021, I was among the minority, as I did still commute into the office for work. The Fit Pack’s sleek and minimal look disguised the fact that I was hauling around some stinky old running shoes and clothes that were about to regret their existence all while carrying my MBP and HD’s ready to edit a music video, commercial spot or a bag review. With weather not always my friend, my pack can be pretty bulky some days. While my workout clothes don’t weigh a ton, I do pack a few extra layers, as well as some clean non-work clothes to toss on after I work out. ![]() And living in Northeastern PA, it can snow in July. Like a lot of people I canceled that gym membership last year, so I run outside. That might be why I always find myself running alone… As a distance runner, my shoes and workout cloths do not smell good. Inversely, the interior being treated with an antimicrobial coating to help control odours and bacterial growth works well. The 1680D Cordura ballistic nylon is easy to wipe clean when the tot wants to get daddy’s bag for him (You never know what’s on a 2 year old’s paws). ![]() After a couple of weeks of daily use, I saw little to no signs that the bag had been used. That being said, I had no doubts on the quality of the bag. While I had been eyeballing them for some time, I had no previous experience actually handling and using the brand. The Fit Pack 3 is my first offering from Aer. ![]() They focus on sleek minimal designs, that are well thought out and have high functionality. They threw their hat in the ring back in 2014 and have been putting out some great bags ever sense. Aer is a name most readers will be familiar with by now. ![]() ![]() To build a project, Maven uses its project object model (POM) and a set of plugins. The installation process of Apache Maven is quite simple, we just need to extract the Maven’s zip file and set up maven environment variables. However, Maven requires JDK to perform some important operations such as code compilation. So, before installing Maven on Windows 10, we need to make sure that Java JDK is installed and the JAVA_HOME environment variable is configured on our machine. Please refer to how to install on Windows 10 for more details. ![]() Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_261-b12) We can type the following commands to check which JDK version is installed on our machine: Another important thing to keep in mind is that:Īpache Maven 3.3.1+ requires JDK 1.7 or aboveĪpache Maven 3.2.1->3.2.5 requires JDK 1.6Īpache Maven 2.2 to 3.1.1 requires JDK 1.5Īpache Maven 2.0 to 2.1 requires Java 1.4 POEDIT NOT RECOGNIZED VARIABLE WINDOWS 10 Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.261-b12, mixed mode)Īs we can see, the installed version of JDK is 1.8.0_261. Now, let’s download apache-maven-3.8.1-bin.zip and unzip it to a specific folder of our choice, for example: C:\Users\Asus\soft\apache-maven-3.8.1 Make sure to download the latest stable release which now 3.8.1 We can download Maven directly from the official website. Cool, right? Add MAVEN_HOME Environment Variable That’s all, NO installation is required to work with Mvn. The next step is to configure the MAVEN_HOME variable on Windows 10. MAVEN_HOME should point to the folder where we extracted Maven which is C:\Users\Asus\soft\apache-maven-3.8.1 in our case. To do so, open a new command prompt as administrator and type the following command:Ĭ:\Windows\system32>setx /M MAVEN_HOME "C:\Users\Asus\soft\apache-maven-3.8.1" Follow these steps to add the MAVEN_HOME environment variable:ġ- Type “edit” in the Window search box, then click on the “Edit the system environment variables”Ģ- Next, select the “Environment Variables…” buttonģ- Click on the “New…” button and put MAVEN_HOME as variable name and C:\Users\Asus\soft\apache-maven-3.8.1 as variable valueĪnother way to set up MAVEN_HOME is to use command lines. Now let’s add the last missing piece of the puzzle. This step is very important to run the Mvn command everywhere directly from the command prompt. Now that we put all the pieces together, let’s test if Apache Maven is successfully installed on Windows 10.Īpache Maven 3.8.1 (05c21c65bdfed0f71a2f2ada8b84da59348c4c5d) Please bear in mind that we can accomplish the same thing using this command line:Ĭ:\Windows\system32>setx /M PATH "%MAVEN_HOME%\bin %PATH%" To do so conveniently, we need to edit the PATH variable by appending the Maven bin folder %MAVEN_HOME%\bin. Java version: 1.8.0_261, vendor: Oracle Corporation, runtime: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_261\jreĭefault locale: en_US, platform encoding: Cp1252 Maven home: C:\Users\Asus\soft\apache-maven-3.8.1\bin\. 'mvn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, Common Issues 1) mvn is not recognized as an internal or external command OS name: "windows 10", version: "10.0", arch: "amd64", family: "windows"Īs shown above, the command indeed displays the Maven version, Maven bin folder, Java version, and operating system information. This means that the installation is not done properly, make sure %MAVEN_HOME%\bin is prepended to the PATH variable the right way. The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly 2) JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE This environment variable is needed to run this program launcher.Launcher This simply means that JDK is not installed and the JAVA_HOME variable is not properly configured. 3) Error: Could not find or load main class. In this case, you need to download the binary zip archive file, instead of the source zip archive. In this short article, we walked you through the steps of how to install Maven on Windows 10. Please feel free to reach out to me if you encounter any issues.In the 1940s, Stanley Smith Stevens introduced four scales of measurement: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio. These are still widely used today as a way to describe the characteristics of a variable. POEDIT NOT RECOGNIZED VARIABLE WINDOWS 10.POEDIT NOT RECOGNIZED VARIABLE ZIP FILE.
The central idea to the Rekordbox 6 upgrade is the library’s capability to sync over different devices, allowing DJs to manage and prepare their tracks and playlists seamlessly from whichever device they choose and then potentially use their iOS device to perform on compatible CDJ/XDJ gear.Ĭloud Library Syncing only works with Dropbox cloud storage at this time. Depending on your subscription level, those streaming services include the potential for auto-uploading offline tracks to Dropbox using the new Cloud Library Sync. In addition to its previous support for SoundCloud Go+ and Beatport Link, Rekordbox 6 has added support for the Inflyte music promo service and Beatsource Link. This includes the increasing momentum of building support for subscription music services into DJ software. Whether or not the timing is right for new expenses, digital DJing-along with so much other technology-is moving inexorably toward subscription models. Rekordbox 6 includes Cloud Library Sync to Dropbox, Mobile Library Sync between devices, 3Band waveform view, vocal position detection, and more. While the new Rekordbox 6 ecosystem offers some new advantages that anyone can enjoy with the free plan – such as Mobile Library Sync, which lets you sync playlists to Rekordbox iOS and then play your music off an iPhone from a connected CDJ or XDJ – the DVS control feature requires the Core subscription, and the marquee new feature of Cloud Library Syncing to Dropbox, along with the RMX effects, sequencer, video, and lyric functions, require the top-level Creative subscription. See the full breakdown of Rekordbox 6 subscription plan features here.
![]() You can see a (dark) neutral structure in the bottom right ropes don't claim them. The image below shows the AI rope test map. To help me quickly test this functionality I've build specialised maps. It is also told about which link actually broke, which allows it to attempt reclaim of the dangling bits of rope. Now the game follows the rope back to the end joints and reports these to the AI script. ![]() Any of these links can break, but the AI had no knowledge of them and so could not replace them. They are treated differently to other materials in that when the player (or the AI) creates a rope the game creates a series of linked invisible and unselectable joints along the length of it. Another thing the AI had trouble with was the ropes. Frustration levels of all actions are decayed periodically, so any frustrated actions will be attempted again. I've introduced a frustration system so after several attempts it gives up. Sometimes the AI gets stuck on a particular action, unable to execute it. Additional joint creation actions need to be added where the human recorded AI fort pattern connects with the neutral structures in case the destination node is gone. It ignores structures it never intends to connect to. At the beginning of the match it scans the world for structures it owns as well as neutral ones and builds actions from them for reconstruction. Now it can rebuild even if the whole structure is gone. The AI was able to do this, but if the neutral part of the structure was destroyed it couldn't replace it. In Forts you can connect to 'neutral' structures and instantly gain control of them. I've had my head buried in optimisation, bug fixing and filling holes in the AI. Thanks for the words of support Rolkus and washk! Work continues. « Last Edit: February 15, 2016, 06:58:02 PM by earthworkgames » I have been using the network emulation toolkit to test poor connections. Significant lag causes clients to perceive a delay on their actions and when it's really bad the simulation stalls. The amount of data sent and received is small: mostly tick and cursor position messages with the occasional action. Steam NAT tranversal and match making have been flawless and easy to integrate. Each client can connect to the server either directly through RakNet, or through the Steam lobby or friend invite systems with their SteamID. So after we got Greenlit I integrated Steamworks. The free NAT Punchthrough and master server services seem to have failed. I had trouble with NAT traversal and matchmaking, and after RakNet was made open source by Oculus support for it ceased entirely. RakNet was integrated first, many years ago. In this case it was Steam's system doing the message transport. Hi quantumpotato, Forts uses both RakNet and Steamworks for networking. « Last Edit: February 14, 2016, 04:57:15 PM by earthworkgames » We support up to 8 players plus AI, with late joining, observers, and instant replays. ![]() The idea of one fort/castle against another has been done but I think we've got a unique combination of design elements and technology. Back in high school I used to draw stick figure battles like that on paper with friends. Hi randomThrowAway, I'm not familiar with that one but it looks cool. ![]() There is a built-in map editor, so we expect to see some interesting content from the community. We have decided to focus on the fort aspect so you can construct and modify your base during the battle, and there is more freedom with regard to design and materials. Hi Tanis, yes there are some similarities to Castle Storm. I'll be adding a mode where you can pre-build forts and import them into a battle soon. Some maps start with heavy weapons so they get intense fast. build, fire) but due to tech development there is a quiet period at the start anyway. Teams are co-operative so someone could be shooting down incoming missiles while another is repairing damage. Hi Chris, it's real-time, so all players can work simultaneously. There is full support for modding using Lua scripts so the community may add further weapons. All of the weapons are useful in their own right so it's not just a race to the big ones. The swarm helps protect the missile from anti-air fire. In the screenshot above you can see I fired a swarm with a heavy missile. Hi BigHandInSky, there are currently 10 weapons including upgrades: Machinegun (upgrades to Minigun) Sniper (upgrades to AP (Armor-Piercing) Sniper) Incendiary mortar (upgrades to Heavy Mortar) Swarm missile (upgrades to Heavy Missile) Laser Cannon You can group up to three weapons and we've designed the game to encourage combining different weapons. ![]() However, bullet construction shall be more important than bullet weight in order to shoot the heavier game. 9.1–10.4 grams (140–160 gr) bullets: deer, elk, moose, caribou, and some larger animals.8.4 grams (130 gr) bullets: deer size game including mule deer, white tail, sheep, mountain goats, antelope.5.8–7.1 grams (90–110 gr) bullets: varmint and small deer.This diameter is larger than the 5.56×45mm NATO, thereby necessitating the use of a non-standard AR-15 bolt. The case head diameter of the Grendel is the same as that of the. Common bullet weight recommendations for shooting different game are as follows: Depending on their case material and bullet weight, 6.5mm Grendel cartridges weigh 14.7 to 17.8 grams (227 to 275 gr). Though handloaders have a wider range of options with the availability of bullets in a number of weights from 90 to 180 grains (5.8 to 11.7 grams), rifles are barrelled with 1:10 inch twist rifling, which may stabilize bullets up to 150 gr in order to provide the required accuracy expected.

When you see a Justin Bieber, a Camila Cabello, a Shawn Mendes, it’s hard to imagine them at Subway. I was on with the CEO of Capitol records for 15 minutes and I tell him, “Sorry, we gotta reschedule because I have to sell these phones.”Įverybody works, and that’s something that people relate to. All the heads of all these companies were calling me at Verizon during my break. It’s crazy, because right when I put it on Spotify, you could see people going from TikTok to Spotify. Then I posted another video the next day of, like, the pre-chorus, and then it gets another 100,000 views and I’m like, Oh, okay. I’d seen people get 10 million views on TikTok. It’s not like I got out of that car thinking, This is the best song. So then after I said that line, it kind of just fell out of me.Īnd then on my drive back to my house I listened back and enjoyed it to the point where I was smiling, windows down. And then my toxic ex pops in my head and I’m just like, “you’re a player aren’t you, and I bet you got hoes” and that’s the epitome of starting with a good premise. I’m listening to it, and I’m like, Okay, first line, first line. I had to buy it eventually if something worked. I knew that I had to have something that wasn’t viewed a lot because I needed it to be mine. Usually a lot of these beats have 50,000 to 100,000, maybe 1 million, views on them because they’re so good. I’m going on YouTube searching like “Harry Styles–type beat.” And then after going around I found this beat that had like a thousand views, which is so small. The whole vibe of the internet is loud rap beats, a lot of trap beats, a lot of low-fi beats, but there’s not a lot of, like, instrumental indie stuff. I’m on the seventh level of hell of YouTube every single night. And I was listening to YouTube beats because that’s how I find my music. I was going through a toxic relationship. Your premise has to be so good that you need to know what’s next. You won’t regret trying to make music, ever.My brother told me, “You have to hook people in the first two lines.” And that’s what I live by now. Just wanted to say if you’ve ever heard a song and thought “I could do that,” go fucking do it. Isn’t that such an artsy thing to say, “finishing up my EP?” So ridiculous. I’m working on finishing up my entire EP right now, so that’s exciting. What else are you working on at the moment? What's next? Meeting people and trying to figure out if they are the worth spending your time on and vice versa. The video for “Stuck in the Middle” is just showing what dating is like for anyone my age. Tell us about the video for "Stuck In The Middle." but if you can really articulate that feeling that you think inside your head. I think you have to be really honest and relatable in your music in order to make a hit. ![]() What's the recipe for a successful (viral) song on TikTok? I knew the song was going to be big when I sent it or showed it to my friends and instead of people giving you the typical “Aww, that’s cute, he’s trying” vibe, they gave me the, “Oh shit, I’d put this on my playlist” vibe. ![]() When did you first realize "Stuck In The Middle" was really gaining traction? It took 3 years of taking song writing seriously before I felt like I could consistently make something good. You gotta realize you’re bad in order to get better. When I started making music, I started making bad music, which I think is really important. When did you start making your own music? He chatted with NYLON about the release of the official "Stuck In The Middle" video, what it takes to make a viral hit and why if you have an inkling to try something new, you should "go fucking do it." Now, with "Stuck In The Middle" having hit #1 on the Spotify US Viral Charts, Verdes is working on a debut EP. ![]() ![]() At this point, I became somewhat worried as to the rest of the game. ![]() It remains the same puzzle, which I never found to be the most irritating puzzle in Harvey’s Box, but which I admit is rather heavily based on trial and error, and not particularly creative, especially since we’ve seen it before. And then we come to our “favorite game”: the domino puzzle. Personally, I found it quite difficult to figure out the trick for this particular puzzle (the lack of a window on the screen simply escaped my notice), so this puzzle impeded my progress significantly. No instructions are given, so we are confused at the box we can only seem to move around the screen. However, it is at this point that the memory test becomes a bit of an obstacle. It is worth noting that Sarah’s puzzles become more complex in this section, and we get a hint of the Rusty Lake we know as we are forced to search the room to piece together codes (Sarah’s puzzles remain a strong point for the rest of the game). The third day seems to continue this trend at first, as we are faced with a similarly straightforward set of tasks, with a few frustrating wrinkles. Players who have been following the details of the game’s release are particularly disappointed, as they know that only five days remain, and the first two have not done much to impress. ![]() New players are disappointed that the game is not grabbing their attention, and old players are disappointed at the lack of the old Rusty Lake atmosphere. However, this sacrifices a lot of power, as the first sections are the sections that rope in players. The first two days in general also work thematically, as Bob’s routine has to seem monotonous and dull in order to make the later sections effective. I realize that these first two dreams serve a purpose, as they’re meant to both introduce the mechanics and the plot (particularly to players who are new to the series and have no idea who Laura is). Except for Laura’s mysterious appearance and disappearance, nothing resembling the strange atmosphere of Rusty Lake is here to carry us forward, and the same is true of the initial sequences in Bob’s room (unless one starts to play with the achievements, which I will address later). In terms of gameplay, the dreams aren’t particularly engaging, and the story isn’t extremely exciting at this point. These dreams, as with the rest, are incredibly simple, requiring simple tapping and dragging movements to move the story forward, along with an occasional puzzle with much less complexity than we’re used to. The dreams also establish background, depicting the breakup and Bob’s firing. The routine actions are simple, and both Sarah’s puzzles and the memory test are easy. Days 1 and 2 are meant to serve as an introduction to Bob’s daily routine and the format of the game. However, I’m going to combine the first two sections because there’s not much to distinguish them. With the general stuff out of the way, I think it’s best to tackle each section of the game individually. That being said, I understand that the blandness is a thematic necessity and it has a purpose, so it’s not much of a problem, and it makes the game unique in its own way. Even when color is brought in during the dreams and the finale, the colors feel a little less vibrant than the ones we’re familiar with. This feels like a detriment at first, as the distinctive color schemes of the games give each one its own atmosphere and character. The game makes an interesting choice in its use of color, or lack thereof. Although these features may throw veteran players at first, it is easy to adapt to them, and they work particularly well in the context of the game (one of them in particular adds incredible new dimensions that we will discuss later). The new game presents us with several new features, including a third-person camera, a split screen, extensive dialogue, and no inventory. It’s also co-published by a new studio, Second Maze, allowing it to break from the traditional Rusty Lake style, despite remaining in the same universe. The White Door comes after a year of no Rusty Lake content, so it was highly anticipated by the fans. If you haven’t seen the rest of the reviews, I’ll post links in the comments. After a long drought, I’m back for another review, this time tackling the latest entry in the Rusty Lake Saga, The White Door. ![]() Gameplay is overhauled, with an emphasis on third axis fighting and more fluid movement this is arguably the moment where the series fully gains its voice. Released in 1997 for the arcades and 1998 for PS. Introduces Survival, Team Battle, and Time Attack modes, which would become staples in future games. Released in 1995 for the arcades and 1996 for PS. Total playable characters: 8 (arcades), 17 (PS). The console version has an embedded Galaga in it. Released in 1994 for the arcades and 1995 for PS. The eighth moves the family rivalry to the next generation with Kazuya seeking to bring the world under his control, while his son Jin, with the help of several allies, mounts a rebellion to stop him. ![]() The seventh game, featuring the appearance of Heihachi's wife and Kazuya's mother, Kazumi Mishima in flashback sequences, resolves the blood feud between the father and son, but does not end the Tekken series as a whole, with the story's ending setting up a new narrative. The fourth deals with the return of Kazuya, and later games continue to cover the struggle inside the Mishima family, with the Devil Gene complicating matters, and even involving an Eldritch Abomination. The third game takes place after a Time Skip and deals with Kazuya's son, Jin Kazama. Heihachi, too late to realize Kazuya's devilish power, was soundly beaten and was thrown by Kazuya into the same ravine where he was thrown by Heihachi.Įventually, Heihachi comes back and reclaims his place after Kazuya, seemingly the hero of the first story, turns out to be even worse of a person than he is, so after his victory he kills Kazuya by throwing him into a volcano. Having been thrown into a ravine when he was only five years old by Heihachi himself, Kazuya made a Deal with the Devil, survived, and trained himself so he could exact revenge. As it turns out, the tournament winner is in fact his disgruntled son Kazuya Mishima. It begins with the Mishima Zaibatsu, a conglomerate of the Mishima family, run by Heihachi Mishima, sponsoring a tournament called King of Iron Fist. note That is, without any significant sequel gaps or continuity reboots. While fighting games are not traditionally known for rich storylines, Tekken holds the Guinness World Record for the longest-running sequential video game storyline, period. ![]() This complexity has earned it many fans around the globe and extreme success in arcades (and later in console ports), and the series has a reputation for being one of the most challenging, technical yet highly rewarding fighting games a person can play. For example, main character Kazuya has over 60 moves by Tekken 7, and that's not even getting into characters like Yoshimitsu or Hwoarang, who have stances with their own dedicated movelists. ![]() Combos and special inputs are thus a bit more intuitive than other fighting games, making the series surprisingly accessible for newcomers.Ĭharacters also have massive movelists, often far exceeding almost every other fighting game series. If you press a button that uses the right arms, then the character will almost certainly strike with that arm. Punches and kicks are uniquely mapped to the four face buttons, with each one corresponding to a limb. If someone punches for example, you can just duck under it entirely. The game makes judicious use of extremely precise hitboxes for all of its characters and places heavy emphasis on frame data. Tekken is renowned for its fast paced and demanding gameplay. "Iron Fist") is one of Bandai Namco Entertainment's most popular franchises and the most successful 3D fighting game series of all time, such that it is a Trope Codifier for that subgenre.
