Overlord raising hell unique molds1/8/2024 ![]() Though the movie features some satisfyingly brutal cyborg-on-cyborg violence, as an antagonist, T2’s liquid metal terror remains, by design, a superior killing machine. The T-X (Termanatrix), Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)Īs a sequel that might add anything to the franchise, Terminator 3 is utterly pointless Ah-nold is, once again, sent back in time by Future John Connor to protect his younger self from yet another murderbot intent on snuffing the future human resistance leader before the … well, it’s right there in the title. The final result is a gorilla costume that was physically made by Ro-Man actor George Barrows, which was then fitted with an undersea “space helmet” to make it appear more “futuristic.” And that’s how a helmeted ape became a robot. The film intended to portray Ro-Man as a more stereotypical-looking robot, but giant budgetary shortcomings, coupled with a 25-year-old first-time director, meant that things went just the tiniest bit astray. The character is actually quite the monster-as a “moon robot” he’s invaded Earth and slaughtered its entire population except for the motley crew of eight annoying Hollywood actors still opposing his diabolical plans. For decades, if someone said “bad costume,” Ro-Man was the first thought to swim to the forefront of the subconscious, largely thanks to the Medved brothers and their seminal work, The Golden Turkey Awards, which enshrined Robot Monster in the Bad Movie Hall of Fame forevermore. Ro-Man, for all intents and purposes, is like the patron saint of the cheesy movie monster. Now let’s take a glimpse into cinema past and imagine the future that might have been… and may yet become. With additional apologies to all the Benders and cylons in pop culture, the focus here is on iconic film robots. The entries must have appeared in a theatrically released movie.The robot must have some kind of body-typically humanoid in shape (though minor exceptions regarding shape for especially awesome robots may appear). With apologies to HAL, J.A.R.V.I.S., MOTHER and the like, no disembodied, purely A.I.When it comes to cyborgs, we’ve decided to err on the side of “mostly robot.” That means, despite Obi Wan’s protestations that Darth Vader is “more machine than man,” for the purposes of this list, he’s a smidge too human. “Robots,” for the purposes of this list, fall into the following categories: Androids, cyborgs and intelligent automatons in general.With sci-fi being as vogue in popular culture as ever, now is the perfect time to reflect back on our favorite ’bots as represented in film. Before we begin, some ground rules: And they carry with them all the wonder, hubris, hope and dread that that drive compels. Robots are a mainstay of the genre for good reason: They stand in as cogent symbols of humanity’s drive to create, to build, to extend its understanding of the human condition. When different types of minions become available too, such as fire resistant types, your head will be spinning as often as your axe as there are so many brilliantly evil choices to make and so little time.Quick: Name five things most closely associated with science fiction… Time’s up! If “robots” isn’t on your list, you’re either from the future where artificial humanoids are nothing but the mere background radiation of contemporary living, or you are, in fact, a robot yourself, masquerading in the skin of a human right now. You could be escorting enough minions to clear a blockade in your path, another sees you splitting them up so they can scurry into troll respawn points and cause them to cave in. It’s a unique hybrid unlike anything you will have played before, as you’re forced to solve puzzles on the fly while waving your axe at gnomes, trolls and other creatures blocking your path. Overlord is about its curious mix of strategy and action, where it mixes the tactical cunning of classic games like Pikmin and Lemmings with more traditional hacking and slashing. You control the evil commander who directs them about.īut it’s not all about ugly creatures shouting unintelligible nonsense. The minions you command are the star of the show, grabbing up nearby debris and putting it on their head (battered pumpkins, pots, sacks, anything) while shouting in excitement and glee in their grunting language. There’s a British heart lurking underneath it all, with a very English charm about it. The kind of black humor that makes you laugh with guilt and a slight tingling of shame. Overlord is about comedy evil, light and fluffy evil.

Southern hush puppies recipe1/8/2024 (If using a pan on the stovetop, you’ll need several inches of oil so the hush puppies will float as they fry.) ![]() Here’s how to make this easy hush puppy recipe: True hush puppies are golden crisp on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. This is one time when you’ll want to get out your deep fryer. The true origins may be lost, but that doesn’t mean we enjoy this iconic Southern staple any less! So Why are They Called Hush Puppies? It’s a much-debated question! It’s speculated (among many other stories) that fishermen would fry up the batter they used for fish fries, and toss them to yapping dogs to “hush” their barking. The next time you’re hungry for some hush puppies, let them thaw and spread them out on a foil-lined cookie sheet, and warm them in a hot oven for 10 minutes to restore some of the crunchiness. These homemade hush puppies most often served with those other Southern classics: fried fish, shrimp boil, fried chicken and collard greens.Ĭan you freeze them? Sure you can! If you have leftovers or want to make extras, let them cool, and place them in a freezer bag for up to four months. The main ingredient in hush puppies is always going to be cornmeal, we also add buttermilk, egg and a leavening ingredient, usually baking soda. Typically, you’ll find them in golf ball sized globes or fingers, depending on how the cook drops them in the oil. Unlike soft cornbread, they are crunchy and golden brown on the outside and melt-in-your mouth light on the inside. What Are Hush Puppies? Hush puppies are small bits of deep fried cornmeal batter. Of course Hush puppies are great for snacking too! Slather them in a sweet Honey Butter, dip them in soups or even in a spicy mayonnaise. Bites of corn batter fried until crisp on the outside and tender and fluffy inside! ![]() Hush Puppies are the perfect addition to accompany your Southern-inspired meal from fried chicken to shrimp and grits.

While OSX's native mouse movement pretty much feels the same (albeit horrible and unusable) on the both the retina and non-retina displays, SteerMouse doesn't feel the same at all between the two machines. It does make some sense that a retina screen would operate differently than a non-retina one - the higher density of pixels would need to be accounted for. That doesn't sound right to me, as I've used several non-retina Macs without noticing any difference. I contacted the developer of SteerMouse, and he said that every model of Mac has different mouse movement. In fact, I get wrist and shoulder pain within a few minutes of using the new iMac Pro. Using the same mouse and the same settings as my other iMac (2013 non-retina), it just doesn't feel right. The problem is that I recently got an iMac Pro, and even with SteerMouse the mouse movement is way, way off. Smooth Mouse was great for getting "Windows-like" mouse movement, but since it stopped working I've moved to SteerMouse (or CursorSense, which is basically the same program). I'm one of those people who, despite using Macs for years, has never been able to get accustomed to OSX's mouse movement.

Sparkle image1/7/2024 The classic pose here is to put some glitter in your hand and blow it outward. If you blow too hard, you'll look like a pufferfish and risk having it come back in your face. If you go for the blow, be sure to do it gently. Really, the glitter thing isn’t all that complicated. And be prepared to find those pieces at the most awkward times. Pro tip: Do your glitter shots at the end of the shoot so you don’t have to worry about glitter getting stuck in your hair and clothes. They are better for the environment and you won't have to worry about some duck choking on a piece just so your photoshoot can go viral. Try to shoot on the pavement rather than grass for easy sweep-up, and if cleaning is not your thing, look for the biodegradable types of glitter. For the record, walls are a great backdrop for any type of posing. If it's gusty, find a wall or overhang to protect you while posing (or just go inside, sis). If there's a light breeze, turn your back to the wind to prevent this. You want to avoid getting glitter in your face, causing a squinty, cringing expression, and you want to try and make sure the glitter doesn't get blown out of the frame. If you do choose to go outside, be careful of the wind. He picked it up on your couch, which was covered in it from that photoshoot with your best friend last year.) (So, before you scream at your bae, " Where did you get those sparkles on your face?" Relax. Keep in mind that this sh*t will get everywhere, and you will find remnants of it for years to come. Since you can never be sure about the weather, it's easiest to work with glitter indoors against a clean, non-distracting backdrop. ![]() A post shared by Mamacita Cosmetics or Out?

Textwrangler vs sublime1/7/2024 ![]() The splendor of Nova is a little unsettling at first I don’t want to create a scandal here.Īnd here was Nova, waltzing around my screen like some kind of 70s pimp with it’s neon colour schemes, quirky animations, glowing text and unadulterated sense of fun and visual splendour. I’ve never been in the bedroom of the Dalai Lama. Like the coding equivalent of the Dalai Lama’s bedroom. I was used to my editor looking dark, serious and spartan. Despite there seeming to be a few basic essentials it couldn’t do, it just, visually, felt too blingy. When Nova first came out in September of 2020, I took a brief and instantly dismissed it. To use an analogy: sure you can drive to work in a Ford, but Apps like Espresso and Coda felt like driving to work in a … (insert your own aspirational car here).Īnd that brings me, finally, to Panic’s Nova. It just put a little joy into using such utilitarian software. It made the whole experience feel different. It showed an app can have some kind of soul. The start screen of Espresso was a thing of beauty Have you forgotten how great Mac apps can look?Īs a long time Mac user, I occasionally get nostalgic for when Mac apps used to take you back by how, just ‘great’ they looked. OK, I know some of you will have opinions here so stick them in the comments but for now, let’s move on. But just don’t be under any doubt you are ‘paying’ for it in some way. You are just paying for it with your data and usage. Oh, just one more little point you are still ‘paying’ for VS Code. I’m merely explaining why, when nearly everyone else is using VS Code, I am not. Now, this isn’t going to be about me ragging on VS Code. Heck, I was on of the few people that liked the Windows phone UI, but if you are on a Mac it just feels a little off. Now there is nothing inherently wrong with a ‘Windows’ feel. This is most obvious when you switch to a new file, when there’s a horrid FOUC, just before the syntax highlighting kicks in. And it feels slow to navigate the interface. Yes, it has (almost) every feature you could possibly want. VS Code feels slowĭespite the near complete domination of VS Code in the hearts and minds of developers as I write this, I just can’t stick with it. And why I always come back to Sublime Text. Generally, the length of time I stuck with an editor was directly proportional to the speed, or perceived speed, of the interface.Īnd that brings me to the blue elephant in the room. Through all that, the value I have appreciated beyond all else is speed. ![]() Plus brief looks at things like Atom and Brackets and no doubt some others I’ve forgotten about. Here’s a non-exhaustive list of editors I have used for some period of time: I’ve been using a text editors daily for a long time. But I’ve also used text editors to write books, articles and even screenplays. I spend the majority of my working life in a text editor so seeing how a product solves the same problems I understand well is fascinating to me. I’m a sucker for spending time with new code editors. Want to watch the YouTube version? My text editor history It just always feels instant.īut right now, if you took Sublime away from me, and made me pick another editor, it would be Panic’s Nova. I think it’s an amazing piece of software.‘Pound for pound’, in my book, when it comes to text editors, nothing beats Sublime Text for the feeling of speed. But if you often or usually need to locate files, do try Everything - it’s freeware and is quick to set up, and it uses a fraction of the disk space for indexes compared to FLP. I expect I’m missing the point with FLP and the main purpose it to search within file contents which is bound to be a little slow. ![]() I have never found a need to use it, but I just tried. So I can search for all modifed in the last 2 minutes and it’s always correct. As far as I can see, indexes are not rebuilt automatically - they are with Everything, so the results are always up to date. I waited several minutes for the above folder + subfolders to be indexed. Everything will search over a million files with each keystroke - in a fraction of a second.Īs I expected, indexing was slow with FLP. I tried several searches with FLP and typically there was a delay of 30-60 seconds.This was searching in a folder + subfolders of about 90k files, which I had indexed. If your aim is just to find files, then FLP doesn’t really compare with Everything. ![]() I spent a little more time playing with File Locator Pro. |
