Enjoy your new worm buddy.įollow me on Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram. It does not have a catalyst.Īnyway, hope that helped. It also gets a boost if you’ve injured yourself with your own worm blast. The explosions and bigger and more damaging if you’ve just previously defeated a group of enemies. Parasite is a unique grenade launcher in that it functions more like a rocket launcher with only one in the mag, but huge AOE and damage as a result. And there are still more mysteries about the collapse to uncover. So Savathun is responsible for humanity surviving the Collapse, though the worm says she did it for the Traveler, not for us. She was working for him, but spun some sort of “lie” when he set his sights on the Traveler and he went back to the stars. It was actually Savathun that apparently tricked the Witness into leaving during the first Collapse. You’ll then fend off waves and waves of Scorn, protecting Mara with infinite heavy ammo in your new Parasite launcher, before the worm finally reveals something useful ( spoilers follow): Then, one more sequence of platform jumping where you will eventually meet Mara who surprise, lets the worm know his new host is a…grenade launcher, which does not amuse him. Then you extract some Hive light with three different combat encounters and a difficulty “alarm trip” combat encounter that spawns a bunch of yellowbars (This mission is 1520, by the way). The first segment has you dodging Hive and one-hit-kill traps to get 16 pools of Hive Light. The worm is constantly dying and in two different segments you will have to run it around so it doesn’t explode. Step 10: Talk to Finch and do the Parasitic Pilgrimage – This is the final mission to get Parasite and boy is it something. Step 9: Do the Extraction Lost Sector in the Quagmire – Same deal, find the altar at the end using Deepsight. Step 8: Find Rune in Alluring Curtain and Locate Hidden Deepsight Cache – This will take you to a place where there’s actually a missing rune, and you’ll need to use Deepsight to activate platforms you not only have to jump on, but you need to shoot three different torches as you do so which will spawn the chest containing the rune back on solid ground. Step 7: Do the Metamorphosis Lost Sector in Miasma – This one is mostly Scorn with a few Hive shielded by Knights. Step 6: Another Rune – Same deal this time, long journey, usually taking you through old story mission zones. The kill ones are 20-30 kills and take longer.

The Kaleidoscope Abelia is a great plant if you are looking for year around color. That data is then sent over the cable as data packets and converted back to video information and output to the monitors via the DisplayLink chip in the docking station. DisplayLink uses an installed driver and the system CPU and GPU to convert graphics data on the system into data packets. The second and third displays will rely on the DisplayLink software. This requires no user driver installation. The HDMI or DisplayPort output uses Alternate Mode (Alt Mode), and as it is basically a pipeline directly to the system’s native GPU, it will behave just like if you hooked up a USB-C to HDMI dongle to your laptop. This entails making some adjustments in the Mac’s “Privacy” tab, but you are walked through it step by step. The most scary bit is when you need to enable “Screen Recording” to allow the DisplayLink Manager app to capture pixels and send them to your USB peripheral. Older versions did not support laptops’ closed-display/Clamshell mode, but 1.8.1 does support Clamshell mode if the MacBook is Intel-based running macOS 12 or if the MacBook is M1-based running macOS 11 or later. You may need to quit and restart DisplayLink Manager afterward. This can be found in System Preferences under Privacy in Security & Privacy navigate to Screen Recording in the list on the left, then tick the Screen Recording permission for DisplayLink Manager after unlocking the padlock using your admin password. The macOS requires the user to permit “Screen Recording” in order for DisplayLink devices to work properly. It can be managed via the DisplayLink icon in the Apple Menu bar. 1.8.1 is compatible with macOS Big Sur 11, Monterey 12 and Ventura 13. You’ll need to download the appropriate DisplayLink software from the dock manufacturer-full instructions later on.ĭisplayLink Manager Graphics Connectivity App v. DisplayLink USB-C docks or just USB-C docks require software drivers to enable data compression that make them almost as powerful as a Thunderbolt dock. This should work with most third-party docks, although some manufacturers, such as Caldigit, don’t recommend it.Ī whole new category of docks-many reviewed below-has appeared to solve the M1/M2 Mac one-screen problem. You can use a combination of display technologies to get around the M1/M2 MacBooks’ single-monitor limitation. Workaround #1: Install DisplayLink software drivers We also cover the basics of how to connect your Mac to an external monitor. We have this guide to monitors for M1 Macs and what you need to know before buying. But the M1 models of the MacBook Air and MacBook Pro lack an HDMI port and only support a single external display over Thunderbolt.Īpple has apparently promised to fix the problem in a future macOS update, but the arrival of the later M1 Pro and M1 Max-and more recently the M2-suggest that M1 owners could be waiting a long time. While the M1 and M2 MacBooks natively support just one monitor, the M1 and M2 Mac Mini does natively support up to two external monitors-one via the HDMI port and a second via USB-C. We hope everyone has enjoyed the ride so far. We tried to include as many interesting ideas as we could, and made it a point to attempt scenes we haven’t tried in any of our previous projects.

The latest in the mystery that is surrounding the Cummy Bender universe. Bertram had two students on the production side. It’s also been a learning experience for the students a part of the production. “One of the nights was twin night, and an older person got teamed with a younger person,” she said. One thing she implemented during rehearsals was called “make a friend, be a friend.” It helped the cast become a cohesive team and to have a lot of fun. While directing a group of children might sound a little overwhelming, she said it was a great time. For Bertram, it was her first time directing by herself. The entire 31-person cast for the Springfield production ranges from 5 to 17. The show is labeled “junior,” meaning it’s about one hour long and the cast is made up entirely of children younger than 17. “Schoolhouse Rock Live” includes the classic songs that everyone knows well, like “I’m Just a Bill,” and “Conjunction Junction,” that’s sure to have the audience singing along. “They teach her, letting her know that she already knows what to do because she grew up with these songs that taught her in the first place,” said Becky Bertram, the director for the show. She tries to relax by watching some TV and through watching the TV different facets of her personalities emerge, represented by old episodes of the Emmy Award-winning show “Schoolhouse Rock.” The show is about a schoolteacher named Tammy, who’s nervous and worried about her first day of teaching. The group is putting on a production “Schoolhouse Rock Live! Jr.” that will show at the Hoogland Center for the Arts. The music video (shown below, right) received over 99,000 views in over one year.A tour down memory lane opens this weekend, courtesy of the Springfield Theatre Centre. On March 31st, 2021, YouTube musician Ginny Di posted a live-action music video which parodied the Schoolhouse Rock! music style, and teaches about rolling for attributes in Dungeons & Dragons. The music video (shown below, left) received over 1.1 million views in over nine years. On August 8th, 2013, YouTube musician Brentalfloss posted a music video which uses the Schoolhouse Rock! music and animation style to warn against buying game consoles too early after their launch. While the original site the video was hosted on no longer exists, the short was reposted to YouTube (shown below) by Jasmine Archer on September 17th, 2006, where it received over 411,000 views in over six years. The first known online Schoolhouse Rock! parody was posted in October of 2004 by Eric Henry, and was titled Pirates & Emperors (or, Size Does Matter). The shorts were often a satire of the American public school system (shown below, right). On MADtv, another late night television series, a short series of Schoolhouse Rock! parodies were featured on the show which were titled Public School House Rock. The short is rumored to have been removed from future airings of SNL. On March 14th, 1998, a Schoolhouse Rock! parody titled Conspiracy Theory Rock! (shown below, left) was shown as that episode's "TV Funhouse" animation segment from Robert Smigel. Other parodies were featured on late-night television shows such as Saturday Night Live. While it didn't directly parody a Schoolhouse Rock! song, it did heavily emulate the style of the original shorts. In the short (shown below, right) Stan recounts the tale of Oliver North's role in the Iran-Contra scandal that occurred during the mid-to-late 1980's. Another parody appeared on the animated comedy series American Dad in the episode Stanny Slickers 2: The Legend of Ollie's Gold, which first aired on May 11th, 2008. The short was a parody of I'm Just A Bill (shown below, left). The first parody was shown on The Simpsons episode titled The Day the Violence Died, which first aired on March 17th, 1996 on Fox. Schoolhouse Rock! parodies first started to appear on television in the mid-1990's. Other notable Schoolhouse Rock! cartoons are I'm Just A Bill, which first aired on March 27th, 1976, (shown below, left) and Conjunction Junction, which first aired on November 17th, 1973 (shown below, right). The first Schoolhouse Rock! short aired on January 6th, 1973, with the first of the Multiplication Rock series titled Three is a Magic Number (shown below). I also hunted down the original chatbot from over 50 years ago, Eliza, and offered her the opportunity to answer the same questions. Just like we all “Googled” ourselves in the early days of Google (and many still do), I could not resist asking questions to see if ChatGPT knew about me. I poke a bit with questions like “What is better: a fresh apple pie, HPCwire, or Qualcomm?” and “Was HAL 9000 trustworthy?” Along the way, I learn that ChatGPT is quite articulate about Fortran and denormalized numbers. I hope you find the interviews amusing and stimulating. I share the output, in no small part to document what I saw so it is available for comparisons 50+ years from now. I could not resist so I took a few minutes away from my time as an Intel oneAPI evangelist and did an interview with the most talked about chatbot of our day: ChatGPT (using their free plan). Guest contributor James Reinders “interviews” ChatGPT and Eliza on on topics that span trusting AI (including HAL 9000s), HPC, heterogeneous computing, Fortran, Python, and predicting the future.Ĭonversing with computers is inevitable, and our fascination with it and the famous Turing test are nearly infinite and span people from all walks of life.

The bench would be thin with shooters, but Gallinari has converted on at least 40 percent of his 3-pointers in three of the past four years. Furthermore, Brogdon’s playmaking skills will raise the knockdown potential of the other starters. He’s a 37.6 percent career 3-point shooter. This season, we could see Malcolm Brogdon replace Pritchard in that lineup. The Celtics forced the Nets to spread out just because shooters were everywhere. The lineup consisted of Payton Pritchard, Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Al Horford, and Grant Williams. Let’s explore the essential question: what if the Celtics changed the starting lineup? We’ll explore a variety of options that we could see this season, and they’re all super fun.ĭuring Game 2 against Brooklyn, head coach Ime Udoka inserted a lineup that didn’t have much experience playing together - certainly, a risky move. Point is, the Celtics have options, including options for the starting lineup. For example, could fans see Danilo Gallinari play a small-ball center? There’s defensive liability there, but surround him with high-end defensive players and length, it could be lethal. With the depth, the Celtics can have a lot of fun. Malcolm Brogdon and Danilo Gallinari Photo by Chris Marion/NBAE via Getty Images Now, with the latest free agent additions, the Celtics could go to a deep 10-man rotation. Last year in the postseason, the Celtics went to an 8-man to 9-man rotation, and the wear-and-tear was noticeable in the end.

While the film provides fleeting references and flashbacks to their pasts, hinting at pivotal events that shaped and changed their ideals, it would have been even more satisfying to witness a more comprehensive exploration of their backstories, particularly Conrad’s. However, there’s room for improvement in the development of Conrad and the other Wizard Kings’ characters and backstories. The clash of Asta and Conrad’s ideals and parallel traits captures the heart of this series by chasing after one’s dreams and never giving up onīlack Clover’s first film, Sword of the Wizard King, is nearly perfect. Originally Conrad’s ideals and goals were just as altruistic as Asta’s, but something happened that made him choose a path of betrayal which caused him to lose sight of what it truly means to be the Wizard King. Asta briefly struggles to understand how the person believed to be the realm’s protector turns out to be its destroyer, leaving him with conflicting emotions.Īsta’s unwavering principles, ability to never give up, and desire to change the world for a better place are just a few characteristics and ideals he shares with Conrad. Asta’s beliefs and ideals of what a Wizard King is supposed to be is challenged by former Wizard King Conrad’s ideals and crimes. Thus, fans and newcomers alike can appreciate this self-contained story without worrying about its implications on the larger Black Clover narrative.Ĭonrad Leto makes for an excellent main villain and offers an interesting parallel to Asta’s protagonist in the film. It is worth noting that the film is not considered canon, as its story and new characters do not impact the ongoing manga series. Moreover, the film includes concise expositions that help newcomers understand and follow the characters and story. The movie seamlessly follows the established lore of the series and takes place toward the end of the anime, providing a familiar setting for fans. While knowing the series does offer a slightly different perspective on certain aspects of the film, it is not a prerequisite for enjoyment. Newcomers to the Black Clover franchise can dive into the film without worrying about fully catching up with the manga or anime series. The combination of fluid animation, imaginative visual designs, and meticulous attention to detail ensures that each frame is visually striking. The magical spells and abilities showcased throughout the movie are visually stunning, featuring dazzling and elaborate effects. The film’s artistic direction extends beyond the environments, magic, and character designs. Outside of the fighting and action scenes, the film has beautiful visuals. Although Asta and Conrad’s final battle is visually stunning, I was blown away by Mereoleona and Prince Funnybunny’s fight. In every clash between the heroes and their adversaries, the audience is treated to a breathtaking display of power, skill, and sheer excitement. From the swift and precise movements to the awe-inspiring magical abilities, every punch, slash, and spell is beautifully animated. The animation in Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King does not disappoint and sets a high bar for animated combat sequences, delivering a visual spectacle that captivates viewers. Asta and the other Magic Knights must find a way to stop the Wizard Kings from destroying the Clover Kingdom. Conrad uses the power of the legendary sword, Elsdocia, to revive three dead Wizard Kings, Princia Funnybunny, Jester Garandros, and Edward Avalaché, to help him enact his plan to recreate the world. Just as Yuno and a poorly disguised Asta are about to start the first fight, their match is cut short by the return of Conrad Leto, the 27th Wizard King who was sealed away by the current Wizard King, Julius Novachrono, for rebelling against the kingdom. In Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King, t he Clover Kingdom celebrates with a fighting tournament held every ten years. The voice cast includes Gakuto Kajiwara, Toshihiko Seki, Fumiya Takahashi, Miyuki Sawashiro and other returning cast members. Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King is directed by Ayataka Tanemura, screenplay written by Johnny Onda and Ai Orii, and produced by Studio Pierrot. The film marks the first animated feature film in Yūki Tabata’s fantasy action series. The film was initially set to be released on March 2023, but was postponed due to production delays caused by a coronavirus outbreak. Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King has made its long awaited world premiere on Netflix. |
