12/23/2023 0 Comments Voynich manuscript history channel![]() ![]() It really appears to be a full, unique language - which would take an incredible amount of effort just for a hoax. While a student at the University of Moscow. Arnold Hunt, formerly curator of historical manuscripts at the British Library, contributed an essay to the facsimile edition on the life of the enterprising bookseller. Its channel Hochelaga has previously been featured here on Open Culture for episodes on medieval monsters, a guide to supernatural phenomena from renaissance Germany, Hokusai. Voynich was born into a Polish family in Lithuania, which belonged to the Russian Empire. The language makes repeated use of a set 25-character alphabet that sprawls over hundreds of pages, diagramming illustrations and filling full paragraphs. This summary of the known history and nature of the most mysterious manuscript in existence comes from the Youtube video above, Secrets of the Voynich Manuscript. Some people have written it off as gibberish written for a hoax, but it doesn’t seem to be. The hochelaga channel is all about uncovering strange mysteries from the past. The book is written in an unrecognized language that no one has been able to identify. ![]() ![]() The mystery behind this book is captivating. Up until now, the only way to view it has been to visit Yale University’s library of rare books, or to view scans of the pages – but this is the first chance we’ve had to see the book as its actually bound. Which means that, for the first time in history, you will be able to pick up a copy of the manuscript and try to understand it for yourself. This is more than just a hardcover reprint – the company is trying to recreate every hole in pages and every mark of wear and tear on the real manuscript to make the most perfect copies it possible can. A Spanish company called Siloe has taken it upon itself to produce the best replicas of the book it can. ![]() 12/23/2023 0 Comments Amara maple![]() Majlak then touched on Rhoades' transformation from porn star to the "sweetheart of the internet," saying that his ex-girlfriend had a great time shooting videos with him for his channel and for her own YouTube channel over the past 10 months. "And I was able to kind of instill in her the idea that, 'You don't need to go back to that,' like 'You don't have to do that, to do anything that you don't want to do,'" he continued. And it was a, it was a part of her life that she wished never happened," the YouTube personality revealed. That it made her completely sad and she regretted all of the work that she had done. "And she was very frank and earnest about the fact that she didn't want to. Majlak shared that he discouraged Rhoades from returning to the adult industry when she admitted to him that she didn't enjoy this job. I know we just met but is this something that makes you happy? Is this something that you want to do?’" "And I asked her, I said, 'Amara, I don't know you very well. "She was two weeks out from going back into the adult industry," he recalled while explaining how their relationship did both of them good. However, she decided to sign a contract with adult entertainment company Brazzer earlier this year, according to Majlak. Rhoades started her adult film career in 2016 and had stopped shooting professional porn by late 2017, AVN.com reported. In the clip, Majlak opened up about his relationship with Rhoades, whose real name is Amara Maple, revealing that she had been contemplating returning to the adult film industry when they first met. On Friday, the YouTuber, 35, announced that he and Rhoades, 24, have split in a seven-minute video he shared on his channel. ![]() ![]()
12/23/2023 0 Comments Smart tiles![]() Plumbworld is your go-to destination for transforming spaces and improving your living experience. Duvet covers, sheets, and pillowcases are easy to replace and can make a big impact.Welcome to Plumbworld – Bathrooms, Heating and Kitchen Products For The Real World One final tip is to use bold and colorful bedding to transform your bedroom. And always keep any original fixtures or elements you replace to ensure you can revert the rental back to its original state when moving out,' advises Lorraine Thompson, a home and garden expert and founder of Best Florist Review. Look for solutions that allow you to express your personal style. 'The key to decorating a rental is creativity and flexibility. 'Wall decals are another nice way to personalize the space with a feature wall without having to use something more permanent like wallpaper.'Ĭork board tiles, at Amazon, are another option as these can be peeled off – they're ideal for home offices or for making a gallery wall that you can easily switch up. A modern tapestry can be hung using push pins or command strips, so you don't have to worry about damaging the walls,' says Sara Abate at Ambience Design Group. 'Adding art in a large size can make a bold statement. We also love these battery-powered wall sconces, at Amazon, for adding some glamorous gold and a cozy glow. Dropping a beautiful pendant over a desk or seating area will create a soft glow in your space and help define these areas, immediately helping it feel less like a rental and more like home.'Īmazon has a range of beautiful plug-in pendant lights, including this dimmable bamboo pendant light. 'Lighting is key to making a small space feel bigger, as it bounces a nice glow around your space and softens corners. You can wrap your cord in fabric, rope, decorative cord cover or chain and then swag it from a second hook for a bit of drama. Since you likely won’t be able to hardwire pendant lighting into your rental, look for a plug-in option that can easily hang off a decorative hook from the ceiling. When you move, simply unplug and take them with you.'Īmber Dunford says, 'Think about using untapped vertical space by introducing sconce or pendant lights. 'These lighting fixtures can instantly elevate your space and provide a bold design statement. 'Invest in stylish floor lamps, pendant lights, or wall sconces that don't require hardwiring,' suggests Cyble Rizwan at Persimmon Design. Lighting can be transformational in a rental property, not only for creating ambiance and helping you to see what you're doing, but the lights themselves can be stylish options that draw the eye. ![]() We've listed some of our favorite removable wallpapers to wallpaper a room, below. 'Just make sure that the wall you want to use it on is smooth and has no textured surface.' Interior stylist Jenny Kakoudakis suggests some bold ideas: 'Use peel-and-stick wallpaper to decorate behind your bed with an ethereal flower scene, a reading nook with a faux-bookcase theme or to add industrial vibes in your kitchen with a concrete look wall. Since these are temporary options it may inspire you to take a risk with your wallpaper choice to add personality to your space. 'If you’re feeling adventurous and aren’t the type to change up your space often, I am starting to see more use of bold prints in wallpaper that include animals or sprawling biophilic scenes, bold geometric patterns or botanical prints.' These options allow you to make smaller updates over time through art or textiles without being locked into a specific style or color. Amber Dunford advises, 'For larger spaces, I recommend a simple, natural option like grasscloth or tonal prints that are not overly busy. ![]() 12/23/2023 0 Comments Legendary traits sims medieval![]() ![]() Likewise, the fatal flaws range from fun (Drunkard, Compulsive Gambler and Weak Constitution) to downright debilitating (if you want a real challenge, try out Hubris). Some of the more enjoyable traits are things like "Whale ate my parents" and "Hopeful Orphan," which causes you to periodically get sad about the loss of your parents and have to do things such as "yell at the sea" to get all of your negative trauma out. To make every sim more unique, the old traits system returns from "Sims 3," whereby you choose two main personality quirks and one fatal flaw. The blacksmith is the sole provider of metal-works for the castle and thus, many of her quests would involve filling armor orders and crafting legendary weapons. The knight, for example, serves as a captain of all the guards in the kingdom and many of his quests involve serving as that leader. All of this is in service to the higher "ambition" upon which your kingdom was founded (such as imperial expansion, maxing out your kingdom's wealth, and many others).Įach sim you create is a master of his or her domain. complete quests, your resources to establish infrastructure and ability to forge foreign alliances grows. As your Knight, Monarch, Blacksmith, Wizard, etc. This is accomplished through the completion of quests (there is no real "sandbox mode"). ![]() You create hero sims, not (entirely) to live vicariously through, but rather as part of a team of leaders that will take your kingdom from empty grass field to bustling city. Unlike other "Sims" games, the point is not a family/social simulator but rather, a kingdom simulator. "The Sims Medieval" takes the "Sims 3" engine and puts it to use in a quasi-RPG gameplay mechanic. Much to my surprise, this game is actually a game!īut first, let's establish the basics. It was with this previously established mindset that I approached "The Sims: Medieval." I had mistakenly thought that it would be a simple extension of "The Sims 3," but with a focus on the Middle Ages. This works to a point, but eventually everything just feels like "going through the motions." Why was I trying so hard to make money? To buy the best car in the game? What would that really get me? The more questions I asked myself about the goals I created, the more everything felt hollow to me. You are simply given a sandbox and told to create. ![]() Sims games have never really had compelling goals and no real way to fail. What would it take to make me enjoy a Sims game at this point? "The Sims Medieval" is a shocker of a good game ![]() ![]() ![]() This certainly fits with the links people have pointed out between Shinto shrines and the sky islands, with both being based on the idea of a spiritual journey of purification. ![]() It makes sense: if you're malice and hatred incarnate, you'd probably want to take out the one thing that can seal you away or better yet, turn it against the people who wield it. Ganondorf might be trying to corrupt and bend the Master Sword to his will. It's interesting that even in this past scene, when the seal was formed, the arm looks all old and wizened, with long, witchy nails. Later in the trailer (but perhaps before the events I just described?) the ethereal hand grabs his (normal) left arm as he falls, and we see a split-second scene of the arm grabbing Ganon(dorf) while still attached to - presumably - the owner of the arm. The seal breaks, and Link's right arm glows a lovely minty green, as magical-looking swirls surround him. The arm is decorated with runic-looking metal bangles, similar to all the markings we see left behind by the unknown Zonai race from Breath of the Wild. From beneath the hand, Malice (the manifestation of evil) is leaking out. In the 2019 trailer, there's an important detail: The seal upon Ganon(dorf) is a disembodied hand, grasping him in place. In Breath of the Wild, and the trailer for BOTW 2, he has regular, unremarkable, short nails, so what happened here? Do the nails mean something? I certainly think so. Although long nails are relatively common on female video game characters (along with high heels and ludicrously tiny armour, usually) it's extremely rare to see a male character with manicured fingernails. Does this compromise the sword? Is Fi broken forever? Does the sword still work? We just don't know.Īn interesting new feature of Link's cool arm is the long nails. It's not clear if Link will have to go on a quest to repair/restore it, or if he's just going to use his wiggly sword from now on, but we'd guess the former (especially because we haven't seen him actually use the sword in any of the clips so far).īut if Fi is inside the sword, we can't imagine she's having a good time being all melty. ![]() It looks like the Malice that crept up Link's arm also affected the Master Sword, rendering it quite useless in the process. Of course, we'd be silly not to mention the melty Master Sword. but perhaps it's the sword's evil power that caused the arm to go all weird in the first place. If Fi and Demise are still inside that sword (or even if it's just Fi!) that could be the beginning of another great fight between good and evil - one where Link is once again trapped in the middle.Īrguably, this detail is more about the sword than the arm holding it. so who is Ghirahim? Is it Link from the future? Hmmmm.ĭemise's eventual demise in Skyward Sword locks him into the Master Sword, which has a dual purpose: One, making the Master Sword all full of evil (which seems bad!) and two, trapping Fi in there with him. Demise would later go on to be reincarnated as our old pal, the Triforce-botherer Ganon(dorf). That's right, Skyward Sword antagonist and servant of Demise, Ghirahim, has all-black arms and weird branch-like tendrils, too. Secondly, his new arm-look is all-black with tattoos that look a bit like someone we've seen before. For starters, Link is using his right arm in BOTW and the clips of BOTW 2 we've seen so far, which ties in nicely with Skyward Sword - Link's sword arm was changed from the canonical left-handedness to the right hand to fit better with the motion controls on Wii. How this relates to Link's arm is interesting. Similarly, it could be that Breath of the Wild 2 is actually set way, wayyyy in the past. is a circle? The actual Legend of Zelda is a cycle that we are all trapped in until the end of time? Hmmmm. ![]() 12/22/2023 0 Comments Tourism information![]() ![]() Amazing Thailand, Travel information, Travel guide, maps, hotels, accommodation, attractions, events & festivals, food, culture, shopping information to help you plan your Thailand vacations.

While Avoma does offer meeting transcription, notes refer to a one-pager summary of the call/meeting smartly categorized under topics such as Pain Points, Current Workflow, and more. Notes are not to be confused with plain-vanilla call/meeting transcriptions. Automatically update relevant to your CRM.Once you connect Avoma to your work calendar, the AI meeting assistant will: With Avoma, you don’t have to worry about taking detailed hand-written notes. AvomaĪvoma is one of the first solutions in the conversation intelligence space to offer comprehensive AI-powered note-taking capabilities when even incumbents like Gong or Chorus didn’t have them.Īnd that has only gotten better with time because Avoma’s AI-generated note-taking offers unparalleled advantages for busy professionals. With that note, let’s take a look at each of these tools and what they have to offer. Our purpose with this blog is to help you identify the tool that’s right for your specific use cases-and not be self-serving. We admit that Avoma isn’t perfect (at least not yet)-and we might not be the right solution for everyone. A fair disclaimer: It’s no secret that Avoma has been in the business of note-taking for a while, but we are very intentional about not turning this blog into a disguised ad for Avoma. Secondly, the three apps other than Avoma are the ones that come up most often in our sales conversations, especially when it comes to AI-generated notes. ![]() So we excluded the likes of Gong or Wingman which cost north of $50/user/month. It’s based on our finding that most customer-facing teams are looking for a note-taking app that doesn’t cost them a lot of money. But why did we pick just 3 AI notetakers out of the whole lot? So, if you are looking for the right notetaker to do the job for you, we have narrowed down your options to three of the best AI notetaker tools available in the market. ![]() The fight for AI note-taking tools is just getting started, but not every tool in G2 that claims to be the ‘best AI notetaker’ lives up to the name. Handwritten notes are also prone to errors.Īnd the biggest of all-it’s distracting (and disrespectful too) to keep taking notes when you are supposed to actively engage in the conversation.Ī good AI note-taking app is one that automates the manual steps, saves you a ton of time, updates the meeting notes to your favorite CRM, but more importantly takes notes contextually like how a human would do. ![]() With manual note-taking, it’s hard to note down every small detail of a call or a meeting. The second-order problems are even worse. Our survey indicates that an average sales rep wastes more than 4 hours of their time each week taking manual notes. Of course, note-taking is one area where AI has contributed in a big way to improve the efficiency and productivity for professionals who are customer-facing and otherwise.įor instance, note-taking is a key part of every sales rep’s daily workflow-therefore automating it with AI makes a world of difference to their productivity and performance. Look around and you will hardly find a software that doesn’t have AI capabilities under its hood. It’s 2023 and it looks like artificial intelligence (AI) is finally coming of age. ![]() 12/22/2023 0 Comments Syma drone wifi camera![]() By long pressing the same stick can be activated the headless flight mode.īy moving both sticks to the lowest right position will activate the self-level calibration sequence. Switching between flight speed rates (Low/High) can be done by short pressing the right control stick. Automatic take-off/landing can be engaged by short pressing the front-right shoulder button.ģ60 degree flip mode can be activated through the rear-right shoulder button. The X8SW remote controller has in total four shoulder buttons, two on each side. On the front panel, besides the two usual control sticks (throttle and elevator) there is only one button, the power switch. In order to offer a more friendly design Syma gave up to the trimming buttons and the mainly useless LCD screen. ![]() Syma X8SW review – Transmitter / Remote controllerĪpparently the transmitter of the X8SW drone is exactly the same like its little brother has (the Syma X5UW). Honestly, this new redesigned remote controller looks much better. The included phone holder clip allows to easily install your smartphone on the top of the transmitter. The advertised flight autonomy of the X8SW is about 9 minutes. Instead of a standard 2s Li-Po Syma decided to use a proprietary 2000mAh battery pack. The lights are visible from almost any direction, even if you are looking at them from the top of the aircraft. The boxes contains all the usual stuff plus some extras: transmitter, balance battery charger, flight battery, 2 sets of propellers, 1 set of prop nuts, blade protectors, landing skids, phone holder clip, screwdriver, USB card reader, 4Gb micro SD memory card and user manual.Ĭoncerning dimensions, it is comparable with my Phantom 3 Advanced – but weights much less.ĭuring night flights you will be guided by 4 LED lights. Red LEDs in the front and green ones on the rear, one under each arm. They secure the props to the main shaft by friction instead of threading. My only disappointing is regarding those tiny propeller caps. The X8SW doesn’t just look good but it’s also very robust, holding it in my hand I don’t have the feeling that it could fall into pieces like a cheap RC toy. The package was well organized inside, everything was secured and the build quality was surprisingly good for a drone in this price range. Anyway, due to winter holidays it took 12 days to receive it. They opted for DHL in order to have a faster delivery. Syma X8SW quadcopter review with pros and consĪlthough two weeks ago I decided that I will not accept any more quadcopters for review for the year 2016, I could not refuse Bannggood’s offer to test the Syma X8SW drone. Very powerful, can lift Mobius / RunCam / Foxeer Legend or even GoPro and alike cameras.Compared to its predecessor, the X8UW, this new model comes with a more elegant look and a completely redesigned remote controller. If I count correctly, the X8SW is the 3th generation of the X8 series. I saw some guys which replaced the stock WiFI camera with a much better GoPro alike camera. The X8 series has about the same size as the DJI Phantom models. Along with the larger size, the X8SW comes with an excellent lifting power. The X5 series which is dedicated for first-time pilots and the X8 family for more skilled pilots. The spare-parts availability is another fact that helped Syma to become very popular among RC enthusiasts. Over the last years I reviewed many Syma quadcopters and I can say that their nice design is paired with a very good build quality. ![]() Through X8SW it seems that Syma ends a good year with a good quadcopter. Although, I was in the winter holiday rush, I was truly happy to be between the first ones to test and review the Syma X8SW.
