You don’t really need to aim at enemies since this game has an auto-aim mechanic similar to Shadowgun Legends. Bottom left button to move, bottom right to fire and use gear which we will cover later. The controls are very straightforward and easy to get used to which I think is great as a mobile game. Securing an objective or securing a drone.Collecting bombs to blow up an enemy nest.The animations are very smooth when your character moves around the planet, the gun and the explosion effects are great where it feels like an intense firefight.Įvery planet you explore will give you different kinds of missions for you to complete in order to complete the planet stage, with bonus missions for you to complete while killing different kinds of enemies. The enemy designs are also quite impressive with each enemy has its own unique attacks. ![]() ![]() The graphics in this game are awesome, each planet has its own terrain with different kinds of the environment designed in pixel art which I think is the most unique pixel art I have seen. There is not much story involved in this game where you play as a bounty hunter, exploring different planets to kill different kinds of aliens together with your mini robot companion who fights alongside you and also talk lots of bad puns which are actually kinda funny if you know those puns from various references.

It is a complex, chip-based algorithm, custom-tuned to each and every product to maximize performance and provide studio quality sound, the way the artist intended it to be heard.

And we mean videos - the unit has an A/V output jack that includes component vide, so all those downloaded videos can be played on your TV as well. The iP3 Speaker System for iPod/iPhone allows users to dock, charge and play their favorite music and videos. Evan Stein, Vice President of Marketing, iHome Our focus for the iP3 was to create an audio system that preserved the high-end characteristics of the Studio Series, while making it more accessible to consumers in terms of size and pricepoint." "We knew we had something special last year when the introduction of our Studios Series line struck a chord with both critics and consumers. The iP3 utilizes many of the same features that made the iP1 a standout, including Bongiovi Acoustics' Digital Power Station (DPS) technology, a clean minimalist design, and component video output for playback of iPhone/iPod videos on TV.

The introduction of AirPlay has companies like iHome excited about the future of wireless media streaming. The iW2 and iW3 are smaller than the iW1, and will run off of corded power instead of rechargeable batteries. The company also showed off mockups of two more AirPlay speaker systems in plans to release in time for the holiday shopping season in 2011. iHome plans to ship the iW1 early in 2011. The iW1 Speaker System includes a built-in rechargeable batter and charging base, a USB port for iPhone and iPod docking, four built-in speakers, Bongiovi Acoustics Digital Power Station (DPS) technology, and users can stream music wirelessly to multiple rooms at the same with additional iW1 units.

![]() Yes this sounds exactly right! :) I suspect the File Browser and the Disk Utility do not look at that "backup" so they have no problem seeing all the partitions and files. a second 'backup' descriptor if the nearly always reliable and Master Boot Record. ought to be if the google gods are smiling, be the "Verification Boot Record. I am not familiar with that error but a quick search turned up mention that it, might, maybe, couldbe. Is it possible to restore the deleted or damaged partition table and make the hard drive bootable again? Thanks! It seems at least the other partition table is still intact since Disk Utilities and File Browser can still see all the partitions and files. It may be that one of them was deleted (when I removed the ~ 500 kB partition with Disk Utilities earlier maybe?). :confused: I vaguely remember that there are two partition table on the hard drive. ![]() Now Disk Utilities and File Browser can see all the partitions and files on the hard drive, but GParted thinks the entire hard drive is unallocated. I deleted that and reboot and got "unknown filesystem grub rescue>". When I tried to create again Disk Uilities did not complain but only created a small ~ 500 kB partition. In the mean time ubuntu did some security updates. When I tried to create a swap space partition (with Disk Utilities) it failed. I used Disk Utilities to delete a 2.1GB unused partition. ![]() I got swap space full error and the ubuntu version of "blue screen of death". ![]() ![]() The major industry you cater to is music and DJ equipment, and with the COVID-19 pandemic, we saw many live venues and performances shut down, but people had extra free time and many decided to learn a new hobby. Despite this, Japan is still known as a country with higher production fees and wages. Japan has been widely known as a country that has high wages for labor, but this situation is changing recently in China which is actually becoming more expensive than Japan for manufacturing. Sustaining those employees may contribute to the company on a longer scale than just pushing those over 60 to retire. Other things we might do is reduce the number of days an elderly employee works or change the location to be more relaxing. We try to give a bit of flexibility to those that are reaching retirement age, so someone over 65 might transition from full-time to part-time. An elderly society is nothing new to our company and being a Japanese firm, we do have employees over the age of 60. First of all, we have been investing in our overseas workforce, and have employed more English literate people so that they may understand the needs of our clients in overseas markets. It makes clear sense from a financial standpoint to branch out beyond Japan and capture more markets. A solution in our minds is to expose ourselves overseas and shift to foreign markets rather than staying here. What are some of the challenges and opportunities this demographic shift is presenting to AlphaTheta?Īctually, to answer your question, our overall annual sales turnover is partially captured here in Japan, but the larger part is overseas. Japan is the oldest society in the world and has a rapidly shrinking population, resulting in a labor crisis and a smaller domestic market. At AlphaTheta we like to think that we conduct our business in that way. With all being said, with the economic situation it is becoming more problematic for Japanese companies to take on the world, but nevertheless, if you keep following good practices and take good care of your loyal customers there will always be a market to go to. ![]() We saw unprecedented levels of JPY weakening, and it has made the situation for some Japanese companies even worse because it has stifled their ability to expose themselves more to the outside world. Last year saw a lot of fluctuations with the JPY against the USD. Japanese firms pursue high standards, but at the same time that can put a lot of unnecessary pressure on employees. It might be considered both a strong point and a weak point at the same time. We have done this over the past decades, and we are not looking to give that up. There is not a secret sauce to capture the market, realistically it just comes down to hard work and listening to your customers. These are the kind of simple goals that AlphaTheta also has prided itself on since its establishment. Despite this, there are success stories, and big companies like Sony, Toyota, and Nintendo are out there listening to customer voices and responding with products that customers truly appreciate. That risk and frustration are still out there, and Japanese firms have lost large chunks of the market due to cheaper labor elsewhere. The 1990s and 2000s for Japan were known as the lost decades, and even to this day, there are Japanese firms that do not seem to be able to get over that. How have Japanese firms been able to maintain this leadership despite the stiff price competition? However, we still see that many Japanese firms are leaders in certain fields. Over the last 25-30 years, Japan has seen the rise of regional manufacturing competitors who have replicated Japanese monozukuri processes, but at a cheaper labor cost, pushing Japan out of mass consumer markets. ![]() I have emailed several tuners about this, including Eric, and didn't get a straight answer, which tells me they aren't sure how it works.

The series sees all-electric SUVs racing across five remote territories to raise awareness of climate issues. ![]() Similar concerns would apply to those running a module which alters this signal, such as the Superlift TruSpeed. This Extreme Mudd Terrain tire gives you X-Treme control on the most gruelling. IF the ABS module was reconfigured for the correct gear and tire size, then the signal the PCM receives is altered and the SCT tune would have to handle the shift points differently than with the standard 3.73 gears and 32" tire settings in the ABS module.

Now, this is where I have some confusion because nobody seems to address this. SCT fixes shift points for tire and gear changes by altering the factory shift points, calculated from this speed signal. The speed signal the pcm receives comes from the ABS module, which has settings for stock gear ratio (pinion factor) and tire size (revs/mile).ģ.

![]() This is where Cyberpunk 2077 is at its best. I could have skipped ahead time, but instead decided to just roam around the neighborhood to take in Night City. In the first few hours, I needed to go to a nightclub, but had to wait for it to open at 6 p.m. Night City is the star of the show and it is a heck of a star. The depth in Night City is incredible though. Watch Dogs probably did the hacking side better, but in both games, shooting is the filler to get to everything else. It reminded me of the Watch Dogs games, which also have hacking as a way to gain an upper hand in an encounter using the environment around you. The thing is, the gameplay is nothing special. Cyberpunk runs smoothly in terms of frame rate, at least to my eye, and while there are some weird bugs and glitches, they didn’t rise above what you would expect from a dense, detailed open-world game. Performance wise, that tutorial misstep was not a sign of things to come. During the combat tutorial, a button prompt required to progress was non-responsive and I had to restart the game. Once getting through the opening missions, Cyberpunk 2077 takes you through a slew of tutorials. You can mix and match male or female voice, genitals and facial hair, for example, however you want. There is some flexibility with genders as well. You can even choose genitals, in full view in the character creator. The cyberpunk style combining punk rock with technology merging human and machine heavily influences the choices. There’s a detailed suite of options to make your version of V, the main character. The first thing you do when starting up the game is create your character. ![]() For those of us without high-end PCs that apparently had fewer issues at launch, this signifies the launch of Cyberpunk 2077. But that’s why I waited and why reviewing the next-gen patch and its upgrades is relevant. I was almost expecting it to blow up and be a buggy mess, waiting for a crash around every corner. It’s funny playing and reviewing a game with such a backstory 14 months after launch. Night City, the host city to this first-person open-world action game, is beautiful, dense, detailed and a ton of fun to explore, even if the gameplay rarely goes beyond ordinary. While there still are some bugs, the overall experience of the game does not suffer because of them. ![]() This is not a comprehensive review of a game that includes dozens of hours of content, but it is clear that Cyberpunk 2077 can capably run on a PlayStation 5. ![]() I played it on a PlayStation 5, having never played the game before. 15, more than 14 months after its initial release. Screenshot: Cyberpunk 2077ĬD Projekt Red released next-gen versions of Cyberpunk 2077 for the PlayStation 5 and XBox Series S and X on Feb. It struggled to run on base PlayStation 4s and Xbox Ones despite the new generations of those consoles being extremely hard to find and only on the market for a month when Cyberpunk launched in December of 2020. Its technical performance could be described as buggy, at best, and failed to live up to lofty expectations. Cyberpunk 2077 was delayed three times in 2020 before finally releasing in a messy state. What seemed like a sure thing has become an infamous story in video games. By the time Cyberpunk 2077 got a full trailer for E3 2018, CD Projekt Red’s reputation was sky-high following the 2015 release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which won game of the year awards and has sold 30 million copies.Ī new IP from the studio behind The Witcher had fans excited, especially after those fancy trailers.

They’ve also started having pop-up exhibitions. In keeping with the salon’s theme, the bottle caps look like cones and the bottles resemble a scoop of ice cream.

For that reason, there is no set uniform for employees. Due to the size of the salon, a maximum of four techs can work at a time.Ĭecchi believes in allowing the freedom and creativity of her nail artists to flow at I Scream Nails. As a perk, I Scream Nails offers its nail artists “mate’s rates” (discounted prices) for friends and family. “At the moment, the most popular designs are unicorns, mermaids, eyes, and fruit,” she says.Ĭecchi employs a grand total of 30 nail artists across Australia each is paid an hourly rate.

The Mix & Match 10 lets clients pick up to 10 different designs for artists to recreate on their nails.Ĭecchi and her staff don’t miss a beat when it comes to staying attuned to what’s hot in the nail industry. The cost for services at I Scream Nails ranges from AU$15 (around US$11) for the plain polish to AU$80 (US$57) for the 90-minute Mix & Match 10. There are four services offered: Plain Polish, Feature Nails, Mix & Match 5, and Mix & Match 10. The price list breaks things down, even approximating the time it will take to complete the service.

The demand to open a salon in Sydney prompted Cecchi to open a second location in Newtown, a Sydney suburb, in October 2014. In this niche, she found the perfect place to make I Scream Nails a busy hidden gem. “Surrounding our salon are lots of wholesale clothing dealers.” Cecchi also notes that the small streets around the salon lead to hidden cafes, bars, and restaurants. “We are located in an almost hidden location with no street frontage,” says Cecchi.
