Yahoo Toolbar might become unwanted but is not a dangerous virus for your computer so it is up to you whether to keep it or to uninstall. What is Yahoo Toolbar? Yahoo Toolbar may be misused by third-parties for aggressive advertising campaigns ![]() Yes, I don't have it figured out yet and maybe (probably) I never will. Try to control the over-thinking (easier said than done at times, I know, but practice!) and learn how to forgive yourself. One day you will look back and realise that perhaps there were instances when the smallest things took up the most room in your heart. "You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." Find yourself first, and be happy with who you are. Never put yourself in a situation where you are not sure of where you stand in a person's life. Sometimes it's ok to distance yourself from people or relationships. Some friends needed losing so don't stay overthinking and pondering about what was bound to happen anyway. If the person you're talking to isn't helping you, well then you need to open up to someone else but never be afraid to ask for help. Just take time to take a step back, speak to someone, find yourself and then try again until you feel slightly better. It's ok not to be ok, it happens to everyone every once in a while. Now that I've just turned 36, I realise that some of the lessons learnt include: I've always been a very curious person, willing to learn from others and share what I know. During our casual conversation I realised how I don't mind not having it all figured out yet, and how 'inventing' a life with healthy relationships is an ongoing practice, which gets more straightforward and comfortable with time and practice. ![]() Yesterday I was invited on a morning tv show and amongst the zillion things discussed we mentioned one's physical and mental well-being. For those who think that I somehow have it figured out just because I speak a lot about organisation skills, plans and to-do-lists, ambition and clarity.well, I'd so wish to have it all figured out but it's a self-discovery journey really, especially as we speak. ![]() ▪ Enhanced MultiRiff feature lets you generate riffs for a section of an audio track (up to 20 “riffed” candidates), audition them, and pick one to either replace or merge with the existing RealTracks. ▪ You can customize RealTracks performances adding your own notes, either augmenting or replacing what the RealTracks is playing, for any sections in the song. ▪ Styles can now be made using up to all 24 tracks. ▪ You can edit audio on any track that contains audio, not just the Audio and Utility tracks – this is a major improvement in my mind, as I’ll describe later! Formerly only the “Big” eight could do it all. ▪ All Tracks are now “equal” – all 24 tracks (8 main tracks and 16 Utility tracks) can be used as RealTracks, RealDrums, MIDI SuperTracks, Loops, etc. Here is a brief summary of the new features that I found very useful: There are a lot of new features, several major additions and many minor improvements. Close-up of Mixer section – the same window can show Plugins, a Piano view, Patches, and some system settings Close-up of toolbar menus and icons – there are many – along with the first four bars of the Chord view. If you have a slow Internet service you will want to buy a USB version. And since it ran fine unattended, I didn’t spend much of my time watching it. Another thing I didn’t try was to select only the new datasets that I didn’t have from BIAB 2021 – that appears to be possible, but I figured a full install would also update any sounds or styles that might be improved. Note this BBDownloads folder can be removed after all is installed (mine was 128 GB in size). Best to use one of your data drives that hopefully has plenty of free space. Not a good plan – it needed over 100 GB of free space and thrashing your system drive is not a wise move! Easy to change using the selections at the bottom of the new downloader window, which you should do before you start the process. However, I don’t suggest you try this at home! See the next paragraph.Īt first I left the default folder locations (which were remembered from my 2021 version) which was fine for the RealTracks and other audio files, but not for the initial download location (the BBDownloads folder) which was left in my C: drive. The new system was able to continue and load what was still needed and so far I haven’t found any problems with the thousands of files it loaded. I paused or stopped the process, opened other file management windows, yanked out the LAN cable (really!), even moved my BIAB download folder (BBDownloads) to another hard drive. This new download/install system worked flawlessly for me in spite of me trying to “crash” it – both accidentally the first time, and after an hour or so, intentionally. Still took about an hour and a half – and that’s just the downloads! The install process starts at the same time, but lags the downloading, so another hour and a half passed before it was ready to run. ![]() ![]() Turns out PG Music was able to deliver a varying download speed range from about 5 MB/sec to 85 MB/sec, with an average of about 25 MB/sec, which is actually impressive. I installed the UltraPAK which has about 125 GB of download files using the LAN in my studio which has a nominal 95 MB/sec (750 Mbps) download speed – if the server at the other end can handle such a speed (most can’t come close!). So the first thing I tried (because I had to!) was the new download and install system (you can alternately purchase a USB hard drive or flash drive version for some of the packages – see PGM site). ![]() Band-in-a-Box 2022 may look like an ode to the past, but is a truly powerful and modern tool. But 2022 brings one feature that’s not in the program itself, a One-Click Download and Install feature that enables you to download and install the entire content of your order with with one click. As always BIAB is extremely complex with many new features, new sound and performance content added. The Windows version was actually released late last year, and the Mac version in mid June. Once again PG Music have updated Band-in-a-Box for the new year. ![]() What we will say is that Metroid Prime 3’s ending didn’t strike us as open enough for any kind of direct continuation. The studio is now looking for a tools engineer and a technology engineer to aid the continued development of Metroid Prime 4.There’s so little Metroid Prime 4 information out there that piecing together the story is nigh impossible. The job ad comes directly from Retro Studios itself, specifically its official Twitter account. ![]() It's now been roughly three years since the elusive Prime sequel restarted development at Retro Studios, being handed over from Nintendo's previous in-house efforts. It's still in development (despite radio silence)Ī January 2022 job posting from developer Retro Studios reminded us that the game is indeed still in development. The added border at the top and bottom of the image might suggest we’re looking through another character’s visor, too. The architecture around her looks fairly alien, and the blue filter gives the impression she’s underground or within the gangway of a spaceship. The artwork features what looks to be a silhouette of Samus standing in the middle of an atmospheric corridor. In February 2022, gaming tweeter Nibel (opens in new tab), spotted that Retro Studios updated its Twitter banner to a new, previously unseen piece of concept art that appears to give us our first visual tease of Metroid Prime 4. Develop high-quality environment assets ranging from hard surface to organic models." "Create compelling environments with an emphasis on environmental storytelling. Work closely with art direction and leads to capture desired goals of look and play space. Specifically, this looks for someone who can: According to a new job listing, it's now searching for a Senior Environment Artist to produce "various organic props" for the upcoming sequel. It appears Retro Studios isn't done hiring yet for Metroid Prime 4. It’s like that, like other Switch games, there will be optional motion controls with the Joy-Cons - we’re imagining aiming, firing, and environment scanning, for example. Given The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario franchises have embraced more open worlds, we wonder if this is something that Nintendo will bring into the Prime series, too. Coming in as a fresh start, there’s actually plenty of room for Metroid Prime 4 to innovate. Other than that, we can’t say what kind of gameplay changes will arise from either the new developer or the new Switch platform. One thing we can be fairly confident in is that, like other Prime games, Metroid Prime 4 is likely to be a first-person shooter. Though Samus went into hyperspace, giving the opportunity for a sequel to enter a new world or galaxy, we’d say the core story of the original trilogy is now closed.īack in 2015, Eurogamer (opens in new tab) interviewed series producer, Kensuke Tanabe, who stated that “the stories of Dark Samus and Phazon are done”, adding that any new games in the series would focus on other Prime-series elements. There’s so little Metroid Prime 4 information out there that piecing together the story is nigh impossible. ![]() Joseph-Gordon Levitt channels his inner badass to act as the younger version of Bruce Willis, nailing (with the help of some CGI and prosthetics) Willis’s ubiquitous action presence. Stars: Bruce Willis, Joseph-Gordon Levitt, Emily Blunt, Paul Dano, Noah Segan There’s such a thing as too much news, whether for better or worse, and News of the World only tries to give us the best. Anyone trapped in indentured servitude to social media-Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or worse, other people’s Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts-should appreciate this calming two-hour reprieve from the unavoidable din publishers and platforms make in our lives today. What modernizes the movie has more to do with context than content. News of the World has no interest in subverting or updating classic Western formulas: It is content with its function as a handsomely-made studio picture, built ostensibly around Hanks but with plenty of room for its young star to make her mark. Zengel is a fresh spark in an otherwise old-fashioned production, but old-fashioned here is a compliment. But as soon as the film judges him, it presents him with a chance at redemption in the form of a girl, Johanna (Helena Zengel). News of the World damns Kidd without having to say a word. An erstwhile soldier in Texas could only have fought on one side of the aisle. The movie doesn’t exactly ask the viewer to overlook which side of the war Kidd stood on: In fact, the truth of his old allegiances becomes more unavoidable the less directly they’re spoken of. His hero is Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd (Hanks), a Confederate Civil War veteran who, having stood on the losing side of history, moseys across the Lone Star State and reads out-of-town papers to the locals at each stop on his journeys. Neither of these terms, nor their equally grotesque cousins, make their way into Greengrass’ film, but the spirit that conjured them into being four years ago is alive and well in his recreation of the American frontier. Paul Greengrass and screenwriting partner Luke Davies may have adapted Paulette Jiles’ 2016 Western novel News of the World at least in partial consideration of how far the United States hasn’t come as a nation–around the time of the book’s publication, such cursed phrases as “fake news” and “alternative facts” were inducted into popular language by fascists and crooks attempting to pull a fast one on the American people. Starring: Tom Hanks, Helena Zengel, Bill Camp, Elizabeth Marvel While suffering from some vagueness and perhaps naivety in terms of what a healthy sadomasochistic relationship really looks like, Secretary nonetheless is perhaps the most important mainstream informer into sadomaso relations before 50 Shades of Grey entered the popular consciousness.- Justine Smith This point hits the nail on the head in understanding that it is the submissive that ultimately holds the most power in sadomasochistic relations. Grey (a role tailor made for James Spader, that similarly makes you wonder if the only two works of fiction the author of 50 Shades of Grey had been exposed to was this and Twilight) hold the power in the relationship to having Lee take control later in the film. Enough fantasy to dispel any criticism of the apparent lack of safe words, the film does appropriately transition from having Mr. With a wispy Maggie Gyllenhaal in the lead role, her transformation from self-abusing masochist to active participant in a sadomasochistic love affair is entrancing. With a Sundance release in 2002, Secretary quickly became notable for its somewhat unconventional take on the romantic comedy. But why not give Freevee a try before it changes its name again? Additionally, there’s been rumblings that there’ll be Freevee exclusives coming down the pike too, though other AVOD services’ originals haven’t exactly been stellar (looking at you, Tubi’s Titanic 666). ![]() IDMbTV used to be one of the more reliable and varied sections of our larger Best Free Movies streaming list, and it seems-at least initially-that Freevee will follow suit. At least Freevee’s portmanteau is relatively clear.Īs Amazon begins fully marching back to the world of commercial breaks, there’s still plenty to love on its AVOD service, regardless of what it’s called. The ad-driven, free-to-watch streamer (which is where many Prime Video titles were landing as they left the paid service) is becoming Freevee, one of the funniest names for a way to watch things since Quibi. Not only is Amazon Prime Video slowly becoming less worth the hassle to navigate, as its library dwindles in relation to its unwieldy user interface, but its recently acquired AVOD service, IMDbTV, is being rebranded. The inner workings of Amazon’s various stream services are an enigma. ![]() They in fact stated in their own white papers the need for another catastrophic and catalysing event like a “new Pearl Harbour”. Only when you break the left/right paradigm and come to the realisation that the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan and the whole fake, and not to mention contradictory, war on terror was the desired outcome for the neo-conservatives within the Bush administration and the whole military industrial complex. Problem – manufacture a crisis or take advantage of one already in place in order to get the desired Reaction of public outcry whereby the public demands a Solution which has been predetermined from the beginning. You could say that in terms of controlling the masses, and society in general, it’s deployment has been an effective tool in keeping humanity in check.Īlmost all major events in history employ the Hegelian Dialectic of: It has been widely used by our governments and corporations around the world. Most of us unwittingly fall victim to it all too often and sadly if we don’t stop, we will continue to lose our free will and liberties. ![]() This in particular will become more apparent as the election draws near.Īnother form of the Hegelian Dialectic is Problem – Reaction – Solution. Nothing is said or done about the issues that neither left or right is discussing. The only real debate that occurs is just the minor differences between those two parties. Good / Evil, Right / Wrong, Left / Right.įor example when people are talking about 2 political parties, Labor or Liberal, Republican or Democrat, what they’re actually referring to, without realising it, is the thesis and the antithesis based off the Hegelian Dialectic. To put it simply, the basis of Hegelianism dictates that the human mind can’t understand anything unless it can be split into two polar opposites. His method of arriving at the truth by the exchange of logical arguments is a system of thought process still in use to this day. For this reason, among others, the entire concept has a topicality to this day as hardly any other methodology of philosophy does.What exactly is the Hegelian Dialectic? Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel was a 19th century German philosopher who devised a particular dialectic, or, method of argument for resolving disagreements. Marx and Engels, for example, had literally turned Hegel upside down by relating the method of dialectics not to an idealism (i.e., the development of ideas) but to concrete material conditions that reveal themselves in reality in the class struggle. ![]() It is not necessary to identify as a Hegelian to support the concept of the dialectical three-step. These, in turn, are the basis for further progression, insofar as no one would seriously doubt that children should work in mines, which, frighteningly, is still the case in parts of the world. One can see this, among other things, in societal paradigm shifts.įor example, if as a society we have moved away from the idea that children are good miners because of their size, this has resulted from the antithesis of workers' or children's rights, which are also based on an idea that in turn comes from an ideal and manifests itself in laws. The "Phenomenlogy of Spirit" thus describes an attempt to take a snapshot of certain phenomena within the dialectical rule of three described above. Hegel was much more concerned with the development of the so-called "world spirit" - a somewhat poetic formulation of a historically optimistic idealism - and how it changes in the form of a progression and approaches its final ideal. This is, of course, nevertheless a highly simplified abridgement of the methodology referred to by the technical term "dialectic." But it seems useful to emphasize that this is not about discourse analysis or simple pro and con juxtapositions familiar from the formal didactics of an essay. Hegel nevertheless used this logical model as a backbone to accompany his points in many of his works. However, he never used the word "sythesis" as a synonym. On the other hand, Hegel certainly used a three-valued logical model very similar to the antithesis model, but Hegel's most common terms were: Abstract-Negative-Concrete, where "Aufhebung" means the point of hinging on the concrete. However, continuing Kant's work, it was the German philosopher Fichte who greatly developed and popularized the synthesis model. ![]() Hegel attributed this terminology to Kant. Although this model is often named after Hegel, he never used this specific formulation. Hegel's dialectic is usually presented in three stages of development: a thesis that leads to its reaction an antithesis that contradicts or negates the thesis and the tension between the two is resolved by a synthesis. ![]() The court was told Parker had been under the influence of a drug dealer.
