The detective sections include investigating crime scenes, speaking with witnesses/suspects, and slowly unraveling the series of events surrounding the crime. Phoenix Wright is a puzzler at heart, and the gameplay is split between doing detective work and defeating your opponents’ arguments in the courtroom. It’s all in line with the larger-than-life setting and helps make the dialogue-heavy game a lot more bearable. Characters range from robotic madmen, to demonic mayors, and even one particularly ridiculous convicted murderer/samurai prosecutor. The writing is intentionally silly, and while it isn’t hilarious, it has a certain charm that kept me interested in the story and playing. Prosecutors are snarky, patronizing villains that assault the player with an endless barrage of insults and do just about everything to ensure the player doesn’t have an easy time earning a not guilty verdict for their client, while the judge is juvenile, clueless, and probably the last person who should have the power to imprison someone for life. It’s a wacky, high-energy game with an anime aesthetic and the courtroom it’s set in is about as tame as The Jerry Springer Show. You take on the role of several public defendants working for the “Wright Anything” law firm and play a central role in the investigation and legal proceedings of various court cases. ![]() Every bit of the game’s original charm has made it into Dual Destinies with a host of memorable characters, wacky cases, and good, old fashioned legal brawling. Every part of Phoenix Wright that players have come to enjoy are accounted for, with a few minute tweaks and improvements. ![]() Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies is the fifth game in the series, and more importantly, the debut of the franchise on the 3DS.

if this really is the thing, I'll gladly pay them what they're asking. I've been waiting for four years now to have something like this for Mac, that would go from an unencrypted DVD to a Quicktime file, without separating the audio and video. Two, are these people good free-software citizens? I noticed they use some free stuff, and I want to make sure anyone I'm supporting isn't stealing from the FOSS movement (that they're complying with the licenses, I mean).Īnyway, it seems like a GREAT piece of software. I'm a little nervous to buy for two reasons: one, are their any sync issues? A 1% error in a 10s clip isn't noticeable, but in a 2hr movie it's ruinous. ![]() I'd rather copy all the data to a HD and work on it from there. I didn't try doing it direct from a disc in my optical drive that sounds like a great way to burn out my SuperDrive. I encoded from an unencrypted DVD that I had copied to my hard drive. Both were great, audio sounded nice, totally in sync. I tried one 10s chunk to H.264 and another to 3ivX. I've only used the 2.03 Demo, which is limited to 10 seconds of each chapter on the DVD.but it seems to work flawlessly. ![]() 2.0.7, but since I moved up to the pro version (thanks dev!), I don't know. However, after demanding a refund on this, the regular version, since it wouldn't work right, they seemed to have corrected the non-physical disc issues quite nicely in the Pro version. I also find the interface for segment selection horribly busy, it seriously needs to make things simpler. which is silly, since you can use MacTheRipper for free to take anything off of physical DVDs (which I do for all the stuff that comes off my Sony DVD-Recorder). This is odd as it didn't seem to have this problem with physical discs. most of the time it grabbed less than 50% of the stream, not including either the start or end, but the file sizes were correct. I had 2.0.2 and even though it previewed in and out points just fine, in almost all cases (iDVD and DVD recorder discs) packaged in image files, it failed to actually pull the proper start and end points.

Each character has unique traits, such as Max's wall jump and grappling jump, Shiva's weapon parry mechanics and aerial rave/air combo, and Floyd's long-range grapple. A new combo system is introduced, along with the ability to juggle opponents against walls and other players, allowing players to earn extra points by stringing together long combos without getting hit. ![]() Each player character also has unique super combo, "Star Moves", which can be performed by collecting Stars in each level. In this game, however, players can restore health spent on a special attack by performing successive follow-up attacks without getting hit. Alongside standard attacks, throws, and Blitz Moves, each player character has a set of special attacks that can be performed at the cost of some health. X Nightmare, was released in July 2021.Ĭarrying on the style of gameplay from previous entries in the Streets of Rage series from the early 1990s, Streets of Rage 4 is a side-scrolling beat 'em up in which up to four players locally or two players online fight against waves of enemies, aided by disposable weapons and item pickups. Streets of Rage 4 received generally positive reviews and sold over 2.5 million copies by April 2021. It was released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows, Xbox One, Linux, and macOS, in 2020, for Stadia in 2021, and Android and iOS in 2022. The game is a continuation of Sega's Streets of Rage trilogy, originally released for the Sega Genesis during the 1990s. I guess I’m getting slow with age.Streets of Rage 4 is a side-scrolling beat 'em up game developed by Dotemu, Lizardcube, and Guard Crush Games and published by Dotemu. There’s a new difficulty, called Mania+ and I honestly don’t get how anyone can finish this. Seriously… this dude is FAST! Three new characters might seem a bit on the low side but the range of playstyles gives it a lot of satisfying content.Įven if you aren’t interested in spending more money on Streets of Rage 4 there’s new stuff to check out as an existing player. I am sure even the Flash from DC has a hard time keeping up with Shiva. A recreated Max and a boss from the past Shiva returns too. Estele, who was already a boss character in Streets of Rage 4 is now playable and her slow but powerful style is really fun to play. Also new are three new playable characters, that have a nice mix of playstyles. This is another reason why the game stays fresh even if you played it for hours and hours. The more you play the more fighting moves you unlock too, depending on how much EXP you earn. It keeps things fresh and once again they created a visual masterpiece. They did a neat trick to switch up the round visually too, all of a sudden you stand in a much older visual pixel style for example. ![]() Surviving wave after wave becomes harder and harder as dangerous enemies continue to spawn and the arena comes with fire or poison hazards. ![]() Thing is that between those round you can pick a new powerup or weapon to make things easier for you.

Here’s what you get, three new characters, a new fantastic survival mode, weekly challenges, and the ability to create your own fighting style. X Nightmare manages to improve the overall quality even more, at a very low price of €8. X Nightmare DLC review | Did we get a better nostalgia kick than Streets of Rage 4 last year? I don’t think so! What an epic game that was and it was awesome to see such impressive critics and player’s feedback. ![]() Today is the next episode of Emily’s Crazy Fun Homework Weekend! Before getting back into the homework groove, two friends and I went out for burgers at Annie’s. I’ve never really done any in-depth research on the subject, but I think that’s because I’d rather just stay in my state of ignorant bliss. Some say that hookah is not that bad for your health, while others say that it’s terrible and even worse for than cigarettes. When it comes to the topic of smoking hookah as related to your health, I have heard both sides of the story from many different sources. You must consume water, shisha (my flavor of choice is mint), coals, and lots of tin foil. ![]() Smoking hookah requires the consumption of many items. We usually smoke three or four times a week for an hour or two each time. It has a special way of bringing a room of people together and creating good vibes in general. For me, hookah is more of a relaxing past time where you get to chat with friends and listen to music and blow smoke rings and just chill out. I wouldn’t say that I am addicted to it like someone would be addicted to cigarettes, I never crave it. I haven’t posted about this yet on my blog, but it is something that I consume a lot of. My roommate and I took intermittent breaks throughout the day, one of which was to smoke hookah. Today, after unwillingly prying myself out of bed at 11am, I got back to the homework grind. Sometimes, when life gets to be too much, its important to take a moment and consume some time for yourself. After I finally stopped crying I decided to take this night to relax and treat myself to the newest episode of the walking dead. It was ridiculous but at the same time a much needed release. Overwhelmed, without any plan b or option, I immediately burst into tears. However, after I sat down, I opened up the assignment and suddenly realized that this paper was not going to be something that I could just bullshit. In all honesty, I was sort of planning to wing the whole paper on the fly. I am socially awkward and terrible at interacting with strangers and this interview was just something that I really didn’t want to do, so I put it off until the very last minute. Being the terrible procrastinator that I am, I simply didn’t do the interview. I have one paper due on Wednesday that I am supposed to do an informational interview for. I had a ton of homework to do so I made a snack and sat down on the couch to start working. I got home from class and both of my roommates were at the library studying. Second, because I had my first good cry in a long while. ![]() First, because I have been sick for what seems like the past year, and have developed a chronic excessive mucus problem. Hopefully I can keep it going in some way, maybe in a real paper journal that I jot some notes in every day. This blog has been fun, it’s cool to look back and see what happened each day for a whole month. When I got home from the interview I did a whole bunch of homework and was super productive and now I’m writing this blog post. But in the end I made it and only had a little bit of trouble finding the actual building (it was tucked in behind like 12 other buildings that looked just like it). I suck at taking the bus, I can never get the timing right, and it just stresses me out in general. When I got home I had to scramble to get all of my stuff together to catch the bus to the office building. I got home at 2:00 and went to Target and got all of my groceries for this week. I was fairly productive in both of my classes. In addition to being great, today felt super long. I was so grateful that he had time to meet with me so last minute and on top of all the cool info I got, I get to do my paper without being a total fraud. He does all of the design work for a company that does biological research. I took the bus to my roommate’s dad’s office. I actually did my informational interview. Happy last day of the Consumption Junction blog!! They support multi-device pairing, meaning you can stay connected with your phone and computer simultaneously. ![]() Still, thanks to their adaptive ANC feature, they have a fantastic noise cancelling performance, which can help block out noise like rumbling engines and background conversations. Out of the box, they also have a less neutral sound profile than the Google Pixel Buds Pro Truly Wireless. These earbuds do sacrifice some higher-end features, like virtual surround sound. They're more comfortable for most people and not as prone to slipping out of place, but their ANC doesn't block bass-range noise like rumbling engines as effectively.Ĭonsider the Anker Soundcore Space A40 Truly Wireless if you want a more affordable option. The Sony LinkBuds S Truly Wireless are another good mid-range option. This can be annoying and affect their bass delivery if you can't achieve a consistent fit. However, they can pop out of your ears over time. Their slightly v-shaped sound profile emphasizes the thump and rumble of low bass, while instruments and lead vocals sound clear and bright. The earbuds have a solid continuous battery life of around seven hours and come with a case with two extra charges. Google Pixel users can also take advantage of the Spatial Audio feature meant to help create a more immersive soundstage. They support multi-device pairing, meaning you can stay connected with your phone and computer simultaneously, and they have an ANC feature that does an excellent job of blocking out noise. Despite the smaller price tag, these earbuds still have plenty of useful extra features. ![]() The Google Pixel Buds Pro Truly Wireless are the best in-ear headphones at the mid-range level we've tested. They offer similar levels of noise isolation and sound customization features via their companion app. However, they lack built-in EQ or presets to help you tweak their sound, so if this matters, check out the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 instead. They have a warm sound profile, making vocals and instruments seem cozy this means they're well-suited for most kinds of content. Their design can wiggle out of your ears over time, which is annoying. Overall, they're well-built and have a comfortable fit for long listening sessions. With their ANC on, they last just under six hours continuously, though their case holds four extra charges if you need it. While their ANC isn't on par with the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II Truly Wireless, they still do an excellent job of tackling hard-to-block noise like rumbly plane engines, as well as ambient chatter. Like their predecessor, the Apple AirPods Pro Truly Wireless, they've got a few features you won't find anywhere else on this list, like an H2 chip for seamless pairing with devices in your Apple ecosystem and Spatial Audio for a more immersive audio experience. If you still want a premium design but don't want to pay top dollar, try the Apple AirPods Pro (2nd generation) Truly Wireless. That said, they don't have multi-device pairing, which is disappointing if you want to stay connected to two devices simultaneously. They have 6.7 hours of continuous battery life, and their carrying case supplies three additional charges. Thanks to their companion app support, you can tweak their sound to suit your tastes via the graphic EQ and presets. They're well-suited for genres like EDM and hip-hop, but subjectively, the extra bass muddies vocals and instruments. The shape of our test rig's ear canals affects the buds' bass delivery, and as a result, they sound more bass-heavy than our graph shows. That means you can wear them for long periods without fatigue, and they look more refined. With this go around, Bose has re-assessed their design, making them less bulky and more comfortable than their predecessor. They easily block out sound across the range, from the low rumble of bus engines to ambient chatter to the hum of computer fans. They're the next iteration of the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Truly Wireless and have an incredible noise cancelling (ANC) system that outperforms their competitors. If you want the absolute best, these buds are worthwhile. ![]() The best earbuds we've tested are the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II Truly Wireless. ![]() Most of the time, all the end user really needs is a clearly defined interface that works. Many recovery solutions have bright icons and ostensibly advanced functions that are actually fairly pointless. Any software must have a straightforward user interface and be simple to use. User-Friendly. Having the finest data recovery program in the world is useless if only the creator can use it. The recovered files must also be in the same quality as they were originally. The ability to preview already-identified files is a crucial feature. Some even provide customized scanning while concentrating on the recovery of a specific file. Most efficient data recovery software packages include options for fast scanning. The scanning and recovery processes cannot be expected to take an entire day to complete before users can access something important. Nobody has enough time in this day and age. This is really unpleasant because the bulk of data loss today happens on external or portable storage devices. Another unhappy discovery is that the bulk of your products do not support file recovery from external storage devices like external HDDs or USB flash drives. When a recovery application supports the restoration of a wide range of file formats, you may safely recover deleted pictures, videos, audio files, and other file types. A common issue with many of these recovery programs' rescue functions is that they only support a few different file formats. How we tested the best data recovery software No longer active – discontinued by the developer.Integrates multiple RAID data recovery features.It is simply an advanced RAID recovery solution with a ton of decent features and built-in tools. Furthermore, this recovery program works to recover lost files from hardware and software RAIDs.

With the ReclaiMe Free RAID Recovery software, you can recover RAID configuration parameters like disk order, block size, and start offset. ReclaiMe RAID Recovery stands out in recovering data from RAID 0, RAID 5, RAID 10, RAID 6, and RAID 5E. The interface is quite easy to use – even for a novice computer operator – and there are a number of handy features to flex.

This makes it difficult for them to make friends and build relationships. They often keep their feelings to themselves and don’t want other people to know about them. People who are unsociable are hard to get to know. This article will discuss the meaning of aloof, and give examples of phrases and sentences that use the word. ![]() The word is also used to describe someone who is emotionally distant and avoids making friends. Unsociable Aloof is a term that means “reserved, standoffish, or less friendly”. Instead, they may choose to ignore you or respond with a sarcastic comeback.

She also doesn’t like to interact with anyone new and doesn’t like to talk to strangers.Īn aloof person dislikes people who try to pry into their lives. But her standard response to any interaction is a warm smile, and she usually presents herself in a dignified manner. The word “cold” is often used to refer to the absence of friendliness and a lack of interest in others. Sometimes, it is simply a case of not wanting to expose oneself to others. Some people may appear cold but be very empathetic or kind on the inside. However, not all people who are cold are aloof. It can be difficult to deal with someone who is cold.īeing aloof is a negative trait, because it means a person expects negative things from others and distances themselves from them.

Embrace the OneStop strategy and determine a solution to offer the level of convenience that consumers demand in all aspects of their mobile-based, digitally-driven lives. ![]() The best way for businesses to meet consumers where they are is to pivot their attention to the digital realm. When a brand doesn’t offer that, or deviates from that path – even slightly – they’ll pass on it and move to the next brand that does offer them the service of convenience. Consumers demand convenience because their entire digital and mobile experience is based around instant access. The most optimal strategy for fostering reliable customer loyalty is to offer clients a complete and comprehensive OneStop digital experience. At the end of the day, it’s no different than an average taxi ride, but added convenience is what helps to generate loyalty to that brand – and Uber has an immensely loyal userbase. This convenient experience is what makes customers keep coming back – this convenient experience fosters loyalty. Similarly, drivers have their compensation deposited right into an account without having to ask for payment or hang onto cash. They can even pay directly through the app, add a tip, and enjoy the rest of their day all in a single, easy to use mobile application. Users can download the app, scan their location, and instantly hire a driver to come pick them up in minutes. Look at a company like Uber – they were able to help propel the rideshare movement into a multi-billion dollar industry simply by improving the ordinary taxi experience through the use of digital technology. Think about it this way – even taxi services have embraced the digital age. Consumers remain ever-connected and ever-dedicated to mobile technology, and that idea shows itself in a number of different ways. How? By putting an increased emphasis on convenience.ĭigital Technology Drives The Consumer Experienceīusiness owners today simply cannot expect to generate engagement, build a following, and create loyalty without undergoing digital transformation. Take a look at the market, get to know the pain points, and provide a direct solution to your target audience’s needs. The biggest mistake that a business owner can make is trying to delight their target audience and persuade them to do business with their brand, as opposed to another. It begins with meeting your clients where they are, not the other way around. This means that optimizing your customer experience and customer journey is key to ensure your client base does not leave for your competitors. ![]() Consumers today are highly connected, and they forge an emotional connection with the brands they choose to do business with. Generating customer loyalty is all about offering a convenient experience that provides clients with the needs and services they are looking for from your business. ![]() In order to live up to instantaneous expectations, consistent dedication to the client, their experience, and a heavy emphasis on customer convenience are required when establishing and nurturing loyalty.įor any small business owner, CEO, or customer experience leader, knowing the right strategies and staying away from the common missteps can make all the difference.Ĭustomer convenience and loyalty, in most instances, are dependent on each other. For clients to maintain loyal, businesses must adopt a client experience that achieves convenience. We live in a world of instant access, instant satisfaction, instant communication, and instant gratification – which is why it should be no surprise that today’s consumers expect instantaneous engagement from the brands and the businesses they associate with. ![]() ![]() Add support for principled emission, alpha and transmission sockets.Add support for nested Cycles node groups.Added support for transparency in the denoised result (both viewport and final render).Added triplanar projection mode to imagemap node, general rework/polishing of the imagemap node.The addon now uses Cycles nodes on linked materials if the material has no Lux nodes (so materials on Cycles assets automatically try to use Cycles nodes, unless you create a Lux material on the assets).Reworked statistics, added some sub-stats about export time (mesh conversion time, hair conversion time) as well as information about which caches are enabled/disabled.Optimized viewport update checks in scenes with many particles/duplis.Image 2 below was done with the opposite: camera gain up a lot, color of the wall almost to 0, amount of air scattering tuned. At your gain, the green beam will simply fall below the brightness of the wall. See how faint the dusty air scatter is now. Now it is about as bright as the green in yours. Image 1 below is with the camera gain turned down a factor of 100. You have to consider the difference in brightness between the green spot on the floor and the caustic on the ceiling. This might not make sense in this particular scene, but perhaps a hint for future applications. For this I used cross-section models of the lenses and used a null-material on the cross-section face. I have made a visualisation of a lens system before, including such scattered rays. Same reason goes for path tracing, as the laser is also of non-intersectable type. And as the camera is a non-intersectable object, the "random hit after random scattering"-way also won't work. The reason is that the scattering inside the glass would have to connect to the camera through a specular glass surface. Want to back this issue? Post a bounty on it! We accept bounties via Bountysource. However, shouldn't there also be a green volumetric caustic coming out of the bottom of the prism and joining the green patch? Luxrender does know about these internal reflections, as demonstrated by the presence of a green patch of light at the bottom of the scene (I have set the prism reflection color to pure green to highlight the problem). ![]() That light also gets internally reflected twice to produce a secondary light beam that comes out from the bottom of the prism. The second issue feels like a straight bug: the light that gets into the prism is properly refracted and dispersed twice (once upon entry, once upon exit) to form a beautiful exit volumetric caustic on the left side of the prism.The only way I've found to get those to show up is to set the opacity of the glass shaders to 50%, which unfortunately ruins the whole scene because half of the light isn't affected by the object and bounces all over the place. The first issue is something I've experienced in many light simulation scene with luxcore: its seems to be quasi-impossible to render the volumetric caustics inside the glass spheres and prism, even though they have a high-priority inner volume shader with non-zero scattering.See attached render and blender file to understand. The whole scene, including camera is fully enclosed in a box to "keep all energy in". The whole scene is "immersed" in a world homogeneous volume with scatt=0.01 and low priority (pri=0) whereas all the glasses have pri=10 White diffuse screen (ceiling of enclosing box) Sphere 3: inner homogeneous volume (scatt=0.01) and glass shader (no dispersion, index=1.3, white trans. Prism: inner homogeneous volume (scatt=0.01) and glass shader (dispers.=0.01, index=1.3, white trans green refl.) => Sphere 2: inner homogeneous volume (scatt=0.01) and glass shader (no dispersion, index=1.3, white trans. Sphere 1: inner homogeneous volume (scatt=0.01) and glass shader (no dispersion, index=1.3, white trans. The attached scene works as follows (=> means : sends light to) Summary: In a somewhat complex volumetric caustic rendering scene, it looks like luxcore fails to render some volumetric caustics. ![]() Without going overboard, The Tomorrow War is just a very good blockbuster movie. The film offers up its share of surprises even while knowing when to drop given exposition earlier than anticipated and knowing how to pay off various character-specific set-ups and plot details. All of these folks are varying degrees of humble, determined and terrified, and they all make sure that the action heroics (against some pretty scary alien "white spikes") mean more than just generic spectacle. ![]() Meanwhile, Edwin Hodge gives the proceedings an appropriate gravitas and undercurrent of doom, while Mary Lynn Rajskub (!) shows up in a role not entirely defined by her comic background. Betty Gilpin offers her usual humanistic sarcasm as Pratt's wife, and Yvonne Strahovski isn't entirely presented as a generic "wow, a bad-ass action heroine." Sam Richardson (currently headlining the charming Werewolves Within) provides good-natured comic relief. While a star vehicle for Chris Pratt (from a time when audiences showed up in a big-budget original because they liked the lead actors), The Tomorrow War shrewdly employs its ensemble supporting cast.
