![]() If you complain to your provider they will measure the speed at the router and it is this speed that will determine if you are getting what you paid for. If you are interested in monitoring how the speed changes with time then it is best to ensure you measure on the same device and at the same time and, where possible, with the same number of devices using the internet. You are most likely to be interested in how good your speed is in various locations in your premises, using wireless connections and when all members of the household are using the internet. If you want to measure the maximum possible speed you should ensure that the internet is not being used by other devices or applications and that the measurement is taken as close to the router as possible. Our broadband speed test tool accurately shows the speed at a given time and under the circumstances that were present at the time of the test:- the result will be affected by any other device or application that is using the internet. It is important to understand the accuracy of each internet speed test as well as the purpose of the test. Get accurate tests and improve your speed The ping test result included in our results will give a good indication of latency - the smaller the better. This is why it is so important for games but it also improves any online activity. It has an impact on how long after you click something for you to see the corresponding change. Latency is a measure of how responsive your internet connection is. ![]() Latency is particularly important for many online games. Speeds of 0.3 (SD) to 1.5 (HD) Mb/s will be sufficient for video calls and speeds of 3 Mb/s are ideal for social media.įor online gaming, you will need download speeds of more than 3 Mb/s and upload speeds of > 1 Mb/s. We work hard to ensure our broadband speed test produce the best, most accurate results possible. Test your speed now and compare the results with the following to see if your current speed meets your needs. Under 100ms is OK but under 40ms is optimal.

![]() Strength of a material is obviously important. Attic floors with limited storage L/240 & 10 psf.Bedrooms and habitable attic floors L/360 & 30 psf.Examples of code-prescribed deflection limits and live load values are: These limits are based on live loads and activities experienced in specific rooms of a house. Typical deflection limits referenced in code books are L/360, L/240 or L/180. Drywall attached to the underside of this system is not expected to crack when the floor joist system deflects 1/3″. For example: a floor joist appropriately selected to span 10 feet with an L/360 limit will deflect no more than 120″/360 = 1/3 inches under maximum design loads. They are expressed as a fraction clear span in inches (L) over a given number. Maximum deflection limits are set by building codes. Only live loads are used to calculate design values for stiffness. In other words, how much a joist or rafter bends under the maximum expected load. Stiffness of structural members is limited by maximum allowable deflection. Perhaps the joists were strong enough if they didn’t break! But lack of stiffness leads to costly problems. For example, first-floor ceiling plaster would crack as occupants walked across a second-floor bedroom that was framed with bouncy floor joists. Strength and stiffness are equally important. ![]() Beams, studs, joists and rafters act as a structural skeleton and must be strong enough and stiff enough to resist these loads. The house acts as a structural system resisting dead loads (weight of materials), live loads (weights imposed by use and occupancy), like snow loads and wind loads. This article will focus on how simple beams like joists and rafters react to loading. If, when the loads of the house are combined, the house weighs more than the soil can support – the house will sink until it reaches a point at which the soil can support the load. Remember when your science teacher said: every action has an opposite and equal reaction? Well every building load has an equal “reaction load”. The structural goal of a house is to safely transfer building loads (weights) through the foundation to the supporting soil. A complete analysis of wood’s mechanical properties is complex, but understanding a few basics of lumber strength will allow you to size joists and rafters with the use of span tables. Wood is naturally engineered to serve as a structural material: The stem of a tree is fastened to the earth at its base (foundation), supports the weight of its branches (column) and bends as it is loaded by the wind (cantilever beam). Using span tables to size joists and rafters is a straight-forward process when you understand the structural principles that govern their use. ![]() ![]() ![]() Most of the puzzles aren't demanding, and performing them often requires more effort than actually devising the solution to them. There is no run button, and you have to tinker a bit to uncover each level's exit, so expect to explore and test the game's limits, bumping against the (sometimes invisible) walls that enclose the map and stumbling through the occasional murk. The subversion is itself undermined by the script's continuing insistence on sticking with the most hackneyed lessons possible, but I appreciated the game's willingness to skew its own vanity, along with the inherent selfishness and haughty righteousness of the guilt complex.įortunately, Path to Thalamus' puzzles and settings stand apart on their own, provided you're prepared for the slow pace inherent to meandering through its spaces. I'd rather not reveal how the narrator's contrition is so dramatically subverted, except to say that Path to Thalamus forces its protagonist to stare at his own troubled reflection. Nevertheless, the final level may not have worked so well had the previous few hours not been so insufferably earnest. This is due in part to the voice acting, which doesn't communicate the solemnity the writing calls for, and in part to the lead's self-pity, which made me wish the narrative canvas had been painted upon by a subtler brush. This is a heavy-handed story it takes itself so incredibly seriously in the way it slathers on the pedantic metaphors, and in the narrator's own wistful recollections, some of which are difficult to listen to. The losses were the result of his weather obsession, the specifics of which are only hinted at as the man narrates your journey through his brain. You assume the role of a comatose storm-chaser, grappling with his guilt while stuck inside his own head, facing the loss of two loved ones with a single name. That weather motif is one of several ways Path to Thalamus ties its puzzle-solving to its story. There will be no tomorrow if this day cannot be turned to night. Not only do you discover on your own how to make it rain, but you also discover what that rain means for the world around you, and what it means for escaping your comely mental prison. Discovering how you influence the world around you is intrinsic to the experience. Making your way through this world means carrying wire-mesh orbs and dropping them in designated regions in order to affect the weather, turn day to night, or make walkways corporeal. Here, you wander through various surreal locales-meadows crisscrossed by stone walkways and dotted with pillars, floating islands connected by glowing portals, and beaches topped with sunny blue skies. Mind: Path to Thalamus owes a debt at least in part to Myst and its sequels, games that twisted your brain into knots when you weren't admiring the surrounding beauty and pondering the mysteries you were unveiling. ![]() And it's that narrative that provides both the game's fall from grace and its ultimate salvation. Like many other games that appear on Steam and float in and out of the collective consciousness, this is a metaphysical journey that prioritizes discovery over solution, and it's a largely successful one, leading you through one gorgeous environment after another so that you might ogle the view and wonder about its meaning within Path to Thalamus' larger narrative. Mind: Path to Thalamus is easy to classify but difficult to parse, a first-person puzzle game that's not about the puzzles but instead about what they stand for. ![]() ![]() ![]() These weekly calendars are suitable for a wide variety of uses: wall calendar, desktop calendar, office planner, school, college, university, training and study calendar, training diary, sports training and fixtures calendar, home school planner and yearly calendar, teaching, lecture, tutorial, workshop and event planner, conference and event management planner, business, company, job and freelance work calendar, meeting planner, birthday tracker and memory aid, engagement, wedding, honeymoon, party, celebration and occasion planner, family planner, meal planner, budget planner, parents and children's calendar, holiday, travel, trip, gap year and sabbatical planner, kids' activities planner and tracker, ovulation and pregnancy calendar.

So lets start with a short introduction to the Baali. I know its long but keep in mind i try to summarise information across many many books into one semi coherent least contradictory article youtube style (and i may upload it there as well one day^^) So please view this as my subjective oppinion based on months sifting through official material, wikipedia, discussions and fan pages to enrich your game. And that can be preserved WITH the information i am about to present and hope i can add things that make them even more interesting and do away with prejudgements you might have about them cause i think, the Baali are, after the Nephandi, the one thing that seperates WoD from all other RPG systems and make WoD stand out for fantastic writing. ![]() According to many a reviewer Lore of the bloodlines says nothing new about the Baali that isnt already in the Clan book except merits and flaws and just emphasises that Baali are anti god not pro satan which is already known from other sources as well.Īs you can see if you search this forum, i had many discussions on the Baali, and speculations with other enthusiastic players and ofc on other sites and even discord groups as well, so i decided to make my statement on the Baali here, not to show off or tell you you have to use them this way but merely as information on them because it is very difficult to distill that information from official sources as they are spread across multiple books, some hints in this campaign, some info on that rulebook and of course a lot of retconning across versions and with some intent as the Baali do live from mystery. I myself am very fond of Clan Baali, and read everything about the clan thats published yet with the exception of recent „Lore of Bloodlines“ which im unsure is worth the buy if its just rehashing info already out in the clanbooks and revised editions. Similiarely Ander did the marauders and Nephandi justice and i would refer to his videos for clarification on those topics. I do not claim to be the source of ultimate truth or that my oppinion is the holy grail, however i encounter many players and storytellers that, in my humble oppinion, have a very stereotyped and unfair idea about certain things in WoD – famously or infamously the „fishmalk“ malkavian but that was debunked fantasticly by Ander Wood (woodwwad) on youtube and also tackled by the Gentlemangamer well. So quite a while, and mainly vampires and mage with crossovers to werewolf and changeling.

Older mods are not compatible with 1.33.0 Modding is not yet available for this version. Also note that while the odd discussion post about novelty clones is allowed, posting generic gameplay of games that aren't Beat Saber is not. Clones are allowed if they have some novelty value, usually homebrew stuff, like the Minecraft Beat Saber mod, for example. There are just too many for them to be posted regularly. Mobile clones and cheap knockoffs are off-topicīeat Saber is mega popular and therefore has about a billion clones. Self-promoting your own music (unless it's an honest request) doesn't belong anywhere since this is a video game community. Map requests should be made on r/beatsabersongs or the song-requests channel on the Modding Discord. This only applies to scoreposts - general video posts on Beat Saber content are fine. Low effort images of scores (such as with cameras/non-screenshots) are explicitly not allowed, and if you are unsure about whether it belongs in the megathread or not, then it usually belongs in the megathread. Scoreposts of low entertainment or interest value should be put in the weekly thread If an article has a clickbait title but you still want to post it, do your best to rephrase the title for reddit.

I built a guitar out of a Carvin neck on a stick. Sometimes you just have to say "what the hell" "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" "No pain, no gain" etc. I didn't want a kit, didn't know much about Carvin, and it had a nice easy action with a decent sound for not much money. All in all just what I was looking for at the time. Seymour Duncans (when I get 'round to it) will help. For $350 it's a decent guitar, looks way cool, has a good easy action (this was confirmed after a quick pick up by an American Strat player) and sounds pretty decent. But it looked cool, had the features I wanted and was told I could return it if I didn't like it (ebay purchase). What the hell, do something insane (see the other posts).īTW, I bought my Korean Raven without playing it, or even knowing a damned thing about it. If you don't like it, you only spent $20 for S & H. The opinions by Gabriel and other IMHO "experts" at this forum and the glowing review by Gig Magazine (even if posted on Carvin's site, the comments are real, if you respect Gig Magazine) are enough for me. Even the already assembled one is about the same as the Mexican. The Bolt-On Kit at less money than the Squire is the clear value. The Carvin is clearly better than the Squire. Statistically the Carvin seems slightly better than the Mexican Strat, possibly enough to make statistical deviation not a factor, simple-speak, the Carvin is enough better that the test accuracy may not come into effect. Looking at it purely mathematically and statistically, I would conclude that the American Strat was slightly better than the Carvin, but only slightly so and possibly within the accuracy deviation of the "test". (Stagemaster H-S-H, a model I was considering Std Fat Strat Bullet Series, for 58 respondents. (Fat Strat & Std Mex) for 247 - 297 respondents (Deluxe & Texas Special), 80 respondents total (2)Bolt & (2)Kit categories, 75 respondents total I just did a spreadsheet analysis (what can I say, I'm an engineer and those kind of things excite me and are easy for me to do) between the Carvin Bolt-On Kit and Stratocasters. Of course Harmony-Central is a great source. Of course I've been listening (well, really, reading) to all the scuttlebutt here, but I've done my own research. If you do, and it turns out you're not happy, return it within 10 days for a refund (less shipping).Īnother vote for Carvin. Overall, I wouldn't be afraid to order a Carvin guitar. THAT amp sounds GREAT!Īnother "great deal" are the Legacy extention cabs, 2x12 Celestion Vintage 30's for around $300. I personally think they're a little "bright" sounding, even the tube ones, with the exception of the Vai designed Legacy. I know there's mixed opinions about the amps. you can order EXACTLY the version you want in a new one from the factory. You can get them for a song, and if you find you really like it. pick up a decent used one on e-bay or something. They don't have a high "aftermarket" value, so if you're really not sure. When I do, I usually play a few new guitars and they are almost ALWAYS of a similar high quality feel and construction. I live just a few minutes away from their San Diego factory store and stop in regularly to pick up strings. ![]() They make their own, and while they're nice, sometimes it would be cool to have a bigger selection in this area. The only thing I've ever wished is that they would let you pick whatever pickups you wanted. If you like this, they are GREAT for the $'s. They have "fast necks" which translates to fairly flat, fairly thin necks. It's true that because they sell direct, the prices are less than what they'd have to be sold through a dealer network. ![]() |
