I’d like to see this personally because I focus my energy on trying to pay attention to whats being said in the podcast rather than processing what is being said (Alot of deaf people rely on ASL interpreters to understand what is going on. A transcribed podcast would certainly be something I would pay for since I’m saving time and can focus on absorbing the information. I believe podcast transcrption would certainly be an added benefit to the blog as it opens a new audience (readers, deaf people, grey hairs) and accentuates the blog. But this took the dedicated resources of a transcriber for however long the class was.Īll that being said, I still believe that if Tim were able to find a good way to transcribe entire podcasts and manage cost, time, and resources effectively (4 Hour Work Week!) it would be incredible. Both loved and hated C-Print because it helped me pick up stuff I missed but I couldn’t look at equations or pictures the professor was referencing. C-Print was RIT’s choice for transcribing lectures where powerpoint wasn’t being used a tool for teaching. All efforts to make everything inclusive for all the deaf and hard of hearing students were made including note taking for most classes (uploaded online), sign language interpreters upon request, real time captioning for events, and C-Print. That being said, I went to Rochester Institute of Technology where there are about 1200 deaf people at any given time on a campus of 15,000 students. I personally use it because I don’t like missing everything and you pick up stuff in the background that is often hilarious. Closed captioning and subtitles work because the action is happening behind it. Sort of like reading a script doesn’t really bring it to life. Transcripts convey the information but don’t really give you any impact. Podcasts do a better job of capturing the emotion, excitement, and feelings of the moment. I can see both sides of the equation for Tim here. I am hard of hearing and I am lucky that I can for the most part hear the podcasts. I now have a lifttime countdown clock on Chrome thanks to Kevin Kelly. And I’ve really enjoyed the podcasts I’ve listened to I listen when there’s someone I’m very interested to hear. I googled and found they were done by this company: Secondly, I’ve enjoyed Mixergy’s transcripts. The requirement to do a hand pass likely makes it not worthwhile. However, he says “I always use them for transcription and then make a hand-pass to make things flow a bit better and format for the Internet.”. I thought back to two podcasts I’ve read transcripts of that were good. No sense getting X% more reach if it makes the whole thing complex enough that it’s no longer fun. Tim, very reasonable point below about transcript quality + complexity of the project. I wasn’t complaining that Tim *should* do XYZ I was just describing my use case so Tim can adapt, if he wants to. And on the flip side, when I feel like it I can instead spend 60 hours a week working to create a new product I’m proud of and that will earn me the recurring money I need to continue my adventures.Ĭan’t reply to Tim’s comment below, so I’m replying here. I went to Brazil for five weeks in Nov/Dec to learn portuguese. I can sleep in when I feel like it, check out for a week if I want, travel etc. I help make it cheaper for others to study for the LSAT and apply to law school.įollowing the 4HWW, I set things up so everything I do is remote and largely non-time sensitive. I dropped out of law school and ended up making an online LSAT prep business. Not sure if I ever thanked you anywhere else, but thank you for the 4HWW. If you made transcripts I would probably read every single podcast, and also listen to the ones that seemed particularly interesting. Preferring reading is very common in the tech niche. This is abnormal for the internet overall, but I bet a sizeable chunk of your audience 1. I’ve listened to a few podcasts, and liked them, but overall I’ve just sort of checked out because I don’t do audio. And I hate, hate, hate listening to audio/video, because I can read the same thing 5-6 times faster. I’m a huge fan, have read most of your stuff. Have you considered making transcripts for these? Perhaps after the fact if you want to initially encourage podcast listenership.

Once you've changed either of the above settings, exit the game via the in game menu. It's strongly recommended to use this command if you know it's available to you. If your card or OS don't support DX11, then you'll either get an error, a black screen in WoW, or simply nothing at all will happen. The reason performance increases so much is because special effects don't need to be rendered through graphical extensions, and can instead render natively in DirectX 11. This will tell WoW to render nativly to DirectX 11. If your Graphics Card and Operating System support DirectX 11, type the following into WoW This is especially true with Shadows and Textures.Īnother one, which will improve performance by between 5-25% relates to which API you use to render. When optimising WoW for maximum quality, it's important you're giving it the maximum headroom. This will allow WoW to use as much Graphics Memory as you have available. Replace VRAM with how much memory your graphics card has. Once you know how much you have, type the following into WoW Nowadays, the more modern ones have 896MB, 1536MB, or even 2096MB! Video RAM Capacity is NOT the same as System RAM Capacity! Standard capacities used to be 256MB, and 512MB (and some had 1024MB). This is usually one thing that's listed in the "title" of Graphics Card at online stores. The first thing you want to do is find out how much Video RAM your Graphics card has. This recommendation is based on having a very high end or extreme system (after all, even us enthusiasts enjoy less-graphically demanding games like WoW, but do wish for more out of them at times). In the listing, i'll show them in a standard layout, then in parentheses after, I list what i usually use. Replace variablename with the name of the variable from the list below (CASE SENSITIVE), and value with the value listed next to it (or any value below that). To apply a setting, simply follow this syntax Code: When you set custom variables that don't directly align with the notches on the Video UI Panel, the dropdown box will say "Custom".Īlso note that with regards to the heavier settings (such as Shadows), they can use an incredible amount of resources. It won't look like Crysis, but it will look better than the top settings you can get from the video UI configuration panel. However, that doesn't stop it from pumping out fairly decent graphics if you've got the horsepower to support it. The WoW Engine isn't the most optimised out there, not for the higher end setups anyway.

That's because Angry Birds 2 covers a wide array of humor in an effort to fill every single second with a joke of some kind. That kind of stuff didn't make me laugh back in the day and it doesn't get to me now.Īs hit or miss as it may be the older you get, it's still guaranteed to tickle your funny bone at some point or another. Plus, for the life of me I'll never understand how men in thongs and just butts in general have become the height of prepubescent comedy. For example, during a speed dating event one of the main trio boldly declares to a potential partner that he "eats dirt." He then proceeds to open his mouth and sure enough it's full of dirt. Adults on the other hand will likely struggle with just how irreverent it all is. So it has its target audience in the bag. I doubt there's a kid alive that wouldn't find this absolutely hilarious. None of this matters too much though as children's films like this tend to live or die by how funny they are, rather than things like the actual quality of the writing. They're at least given something of an arc to grow and learn from while the rest just act goofy or stupid the entire time. As a result, Red and his love interest Silver are the only ones who feel important in any way, shape, or form. The majority of the returning side-characters are given so little to do that the only reason I can think of as to why they were brought back is because they had significant roles in the first one, and the new additions, villainous or otherwise, fail to make much of an impression. In fact, it's so light on plot that they had to splice in cutaways to what is essentially an animated short in order to reach feature length. Angry Birds 2 is most definitely the latter. There are seemingly two major kinds of animated movies those that are concerned with telling a good story, and those that just want to make people laugh at ridiculous humor.

You can also scan individual folders/files and schedule any of these scans to happen daily, weekly, or on bootup. For example, you can run a Deep Scan (scans for rootkits and other advanced threats), Full Scan (scans all of your local hard drives), or Quick Scan (only scans high-risk areas of a device). Since it’s cloud-based, it doesn’t use much CPU and disk space while performing a scan. Webroot uses a cloud-based malware directory and heuristic analysis to detect threats on your machine. Webroot Security Features Antivirus Scanner Webroot offers several payment plans that cover either 1, 3, or 5 Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS devices - and all of Webroot’s plans have a 70-day money-back guarantee, which is more generous than any other brand on the market. Overall Webroot lacks some additional features, but it’s still a decent antivirus with a minimal impact on system performance. Webroot also lacks useful features like parental controls, and its VPN is only available as a separate purchase. But the web protection, identity protection, and system optimizer aren’t as good as similar protections from the best antiviruses on the market. The LastPass password manager that comes with Webroot is great - in fact it’s one of the best password managers on the market. Webroot also includes the following additional features: In my testing, the antivirus scanner caught 93.1% of the malware samples I hid on my device - while this is a good result, competitors like Norton and Bitdefender all scored 100% malware detection rates in my testing.

Live performances by the band were included in the Beatles at Shea Stadium concert film, on the live album documenting their concerts at the Hollywood Bowl, and on the 1996 Anthology 2 box set. Among music critics, Ian MacDonald describes the song as "psychologically deeper than anything the Beatles had recorded before" and "extraordinary for its time"."Ticket to Ride" appears in a sequence in the Beatles' second feature film, Help!, directed by Richard Lester. The song was included on their 1965 album Help! Recorded at EMI Studios in London in February that year, the track marked a progression in the Beatles' work through the incorporation of drone and harder-sounding instrumentation relative to their previous releases. Issued as a single in April 1965, it became the Beatles' seventh consecutive number 1 hit in the United Kingdom and their third consecutive number 1 hit (and sixth in total) in the United States, and similarly topped national charts in Canada, Australia and Ireland. "Ticket to Ride" is a song by the English rock group the Beatles, written by John Lennon and credited to Lennon–McCartney. |
