Lewis then revealed she kept one of Dylan’s songs, 1965’s “She Belongs to Me,” on repeat “for months on end” during a particularly challenging time in her life and characterized the icon’s lyrics as “biblical.” “And I’m like, ‘And you’re Bob Dylan.’ And then my little brain was like, ‘Say hi, how are you?’ ’cause I was gonna faint.” ‘You were in that movie,’ he says to me,” referencing Lewis’ teenage role alongside Robert De Niro in the 1991 Martin Scorsese thriller Cape Fear. ![]() “And then he says, ‘You know Bob, huh?’ Bob De Niro. “And your heart goes, and all these things happen,” the Yellowjackets star continued.

Printing it in-house reduced that time to 24 hours. They had previously sent parts out to a 3D printing company, but the turnaround time was eight days. While the Pure Outboard motor’s hydraulic system fitting is printed out of carbon fiber, the team is currently working on 3D printing throttles instead of buying them off the shelf. Prototyping for beta testing was on the top of Andy’s list, and the Onyx Pro professional 3D printer was a perfect addition to the team’s design process. ![]() This alone sold Andy on the idea that Markforged might be the best option for him. One employee had been working at a large, well-known electric car company before Pure Watercraft, and told Andy how the company used its Markforged printer far more than its $250,000 printer. They wanted a way to iterate on prototypes quickly. Engineers sent their initial designs for the Pure Outboard motor to a third-party 3D printing company, but found that it was too lengthy a process. Pure Watercraft raised over $2m in Series A funding, and started to build up its team. “Even though I'm not the right person, I'm as right as anybody,” said Andy. His dislike of gasoline coupled with his quest for a solution fueled him to do it himself. He looked for someone who could take care of all the electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, systems and controls engineering, and software, but decided that there wasn’t really a perfect person for the job. “I looked online and the only electric boats were five-mile-an-hour putt putt little things,” said Andy, “so I started Pure Watercraft.” He would often smell gasoline from all the other boats on the lake, and wondered if there was a way to go electric. When Andy sold his company and profited off the dot-com boom in the early 2000s, he did what any person in his position would do: he bought a house in Seattle on the lake. ![]() 5/8/2023 0 Comments Typesy review![]() With a child with some anxiety I wanted to be able to set her speed goal really low to begin with to increase her confidence and comfort before pushing her and I like that Typesy allows this option. I really appreciate that you can set individual speed goals for each student. You can see when they logged in last, their current WPM (words per minute) and accuracy levels and all at a glance, so if you had multiple kids you could see their stats all at once which is handy for saving time. In the admin panel you can add students and check the progress of your students. Typesy has a really nice user dashboard and you can even work on your own typing skills as a parent. I love that they didn’t forget about the homeschoolers and they even have an option for homeschool co-ops. Typesy has three different licensing options: one for schools, one for individuals and one for homeschools (!!!). So, Typesy is an online typing program where you can learn to type (surprise!). She started learning last year but timed tests were giving her quite a bit of anxiety so we dropped it for awhile and this year she is doing a lot better with them. If they take piano lessons I think that is an advantage when learning to type because it teaches them to use their fingers individually in a way they don’t do much of until that point.įor Raeca I think grade three has been a good time to learn. It depends on their interest, the size of their hands, their fine motor skills, their reading ability, etc. Should you use Typesy to do so? Read on to find out!įirst of all, I know some will definitely ask at what age they should teach their kids typing skills and I honestly think it depends on the child. So, should you teach your children to type? Absolutely! ![]() ![]() ![]() And in this day and age I think it is a skill anyone under 70 should be able to do well. She likes to type her stories out so she can go back and change and add things in easily so one of the skills I want to work on with her is typing, so when Typesy reached out and asked if I would use their program and write a review post it seemed like a great fit.Īs a blogger who dreams to one day possibly write a book, I obviously value the ability to type at a decent speed. Raeca is big into writing stories, the other day she started a new one and said “I think reading a lot has made me better at writing stories.” #readingwin That kind of makes me laugh out loud cause, they know you don’t have to go to school to learn to type, right? It’s kind of sad that that was the only practical skill most people could think of. Do you know what the majority of the responses were? In a homeschool book I read once the author asked her Facebook friends what practical life experiences people felt like they learned from traditional school. ![]() 5/8/2023 0 Comments Wickr pro basic![]() Information that must be maintained for HIPAA, FINRA, FOIA, FRA, e-discovery, and auditing purposes can be selectively logged to a secure, customer-defined data store as required. ![]() To allow organizations to remain compliant with industry regulations including General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), HIPAA, and PCI, Wickr gives IT administrators greater control over their collaboration environment.

You will see popular RPGs missing from this list, and chances are we have played them and consider their role-playing aspect unsatisfactory and not worth mentioning. They fail to provide enough role-playing to be ranked or considered. Any RPG we’ve played that is not included in this tier list is to be considered a failure. We have played many, many RPGs here on GND-Tech, including pen and paper RPGs. This article does not contain many spoilers, and the few present are behind spoiler tags. All is explained in the next pages, for each individual game. We will mention other aspects of the games, mostly writing quality, but it has no impact on the tier list ranking since our focus here is on role-playing. It is important to note that the only thing we are taking into consideration for our tier list rankings is how much role-playing each game actually offers, not the quality of each individual game and we ignore things outside the scope of role-playing for the rankings. The actual order within each individual tier is unsorted every game listed within a tier has a comparable amount of role-playing. ![]() Tier 1 represents the most role-playing, while Tier 6 represents the least. The goal is to allow the player to define who their player character is, and journey through a world that reacts to your unique player character and your actions in various ways.įor more details, go on to the next page to begin scrolling through our tier list. Through dialogue and actions, the player will further define these things about the player character while advancing through the world or story, gaining experience along the way. ![]() This does not necessitate creating a player character from scratch, nor does it mandate a clearly defined alignment system mechanic, but it does mandate the ability to change who the player character is. In some way, shape, or form the player must be able to control and define his/her character’s innate physical and mental/personality attributes, as well as alignment. Defining who the protagonist is, by your actions in the game. Role-playing is the ability to create or assume, and tailor a role within a world or story. The situation is akin to a racing game with speed limits.īefore we go on, we should first explain what role-playing, in the context of role-playing games, actually means, since most of today’s gamers don’t know. Both mainstream and indie role-playing games today are very limited with how much role-playing they actually provide they are afraid to provide role-playing since higher levels of role-playing, such as those found on tier 4 and above RPGs on this article, is perhaps unfriendly to casual gamers, so instead today’s RPGs shy away from role-playing. Not to mention games that aren’t RPGs but call themselves RPGs, such as The Witcher franchise (something we have written about before). The purpose of this article is to enlighten gamers as many of today’s gamers have only experienced dumbed down RPGs with a minimal amount of role-playing, such as Dragon Age: Inquisition, Fallout 4, Mass Effect: Andromeda, and, yes, even Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, Torment: Tides of Numenera, and especially Divinity: Original Sin series. Every wRPG excluded on the list either does not provide enough role-playing to be worthy of inclusion, or we simply have not played it. Here is the catch we are only listing story-driven RPGs with a solid amount of role-playing, an amount somewhat satisfactory to us or better. In this article we have created a “tier list” if you will of wRPGs, sorted from least role-playing to most, making this a mostly objective list opposed to a typical “Best RPG” random subjective list. It is time for another RPG article! Role-Playing Games are endangered, and with this article and many of our others we do our best to preserve knowledge relating to them. ![]() 5/7/2023 0 Comments Motion boom speaker![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Voice prompt: Mute or restore the voice prompt while powering on/off.

During the quest the player automatically equips the cursed ring of hircine forcing a transformation into a werewolf at any random time, completing the quest Hircine himself will lift the curse on the ring and so the ring will be normal. It is aquired through the quest “i’ll Met By Moonlight”, which can be started by speaking to Sinding within the Falkreath Jail in the Falkreath Barracks. The Ring of Hircine is a ring with the gift of transforming the wearer into a werewolf, under it’s cursed form it transforms even non-werewolves into werewolves. Note: Transforming into a Werewolf in front of people will grant you a 1000 gold bounty even after transforming back so you must transform somewhere hidden. Werewolves also cannot get the “Well Rested” sleeping bonus nor the “Lovers Comfort” or “Father’s/Mother’s Comfort” sleeping bonuses.Īnd finally in Human form werewolves gain the power of “Beast Form” in which once a day (unless you have the Ring of Hircine) you can transform into a Werewolf.

Powers and Abilities in Human FormĮven though the Werewolf Form is the bigger part of being a Werewolf, there are small changes to your character in Human Form. After that you cannot ask to become a Werewolf again due to disrepsect to Hircine of curing your Beast Blood. If you have been cured you can turn back into a Werewolf by simply asking one of the Circle members of the Companions, Alea, Farkas or Vilkas (however if you cured Farkas or Vilkas they can’t give you beast blood anymore).

The universal gatling system of punches cancelling into kicks, which cancel into slashes, which cancel into heavy slashes, which cancel into dust attacks is no longer present in Strive. The tradeoff is that landing these big combos is a bit more difficult because you can no longer convert substantial damage off of quick light attacks. Even just comboing a simple slash, heavy slash, overdrive combo can yield a humongous chunk of damage. Guilty Gear Strive, however, sets out to address that in a number of ways without compromising the heart of what makes Guilty Gear, Guilty Gear.įirst off, big-damage combos aren’t nearly as hard to pull off as they have been in the past. And while that complexity is one of the things that has made it so beloved, it has also traditionally made it one of the harder series to get into from a beginner’s perspective. When you actually do get to play, it becomes obvious why Guilty Gear has always been one of the deepest and most complex fighting game series around. By focusing on just the story, Strive is able to avoid shoehorning in battles in places where they wouldn’t naturally fit, and the result is a story mode that feels completely uncompromised by gameplay. It’s a bold decision to make a story mode in a video game that you don’t play at all, but it’s one that I actually have a great deal of respect for. Like the Xrd games, Strive’s story mode is entirely devoid of gameplay, and should be enjoyed much like a binge-watchable anime series. It’s not without its share of faults and stumbles, but they pale in comparison to the gorgeous art, the electric soundtrack, the wildly inventive character designs, the stable netcode, and its balance of approachability and depth, each of which raise the bar for other 2D fighters to follow.Īnd you really should put in that extra effort if you’re not caught up, because once you understand who these characters are and the struggles that they’ve gone through to get where they’re at in Strive, it’s story is actually pretty dang good – and it’s told in a way that’s unique in the world of fighting games. ![]() ![]() Well, after making the dive I’m happy to report that I love Guilty Gear Strive. But when Guilty Gear Strive was announced, I made the determination that I would no longer let this be a blind spot in my fighting game knowledge, and rather than just dipping my toes in the water like I have for every other Guilty Gear game, with Strive I made the full, headfirst plunge. For one reason or another – maybe I just didn’t think I was skilled enough to get good at them, or I just wasn’t in the right headspace – I never really tried to learn one in depth. I know this because I’ve been guilty of underappreciating it myself. Guilty Gear is arguably one of the most underappreciated fighting game series out there. ![]() |
