Tag aquaracer calibre 511/1/2023 – A Swiss made automatic mechanical movement, with quick set date and hacking seconds. – Hand applied hour markers and highly polished hands with liberal amounts of Superluminova. – A screw down crown and screw down caseback. ![]() – A sapphire glass with anti-reflective coating both to the top side and underside. I particularly like the contemporary design, which is very easy to grip and operate – A uni-directional bezel that is accurate with a nice, firm feel to the rotation. I searched in vein for components within this timepiece where Tag Heuer surely must have cut corners, either with materials, components or quality of finish. I have to admit that, after being initially impressed by this solid diver’s watch, I was immediately suspicious after hearing the price. Somehow Tag Heuer has managed to produce the Aquaracer Calibre 5 Automatic (ref number WAN2110.BA0822), with all of these attributes, for just £1295 (Aug 2012). What you would also normally expect, however, is to have to pay a premium for all of this. ![]() When you buy a high end Diver’s Watch from a reknowned brand, such as Tag Heuer, you expect the best materials, “Swiss Made” on the dial (although there are some fantastic high end brands from other countries, especially Germany and Japan) high quality fit and finish, excellent luminosity, a reliable and robust mechanical movement, impressive water resistance, stainless steel bracelet with diver’s extension and sapphire glass. Tag Heuer recently released their new Aquaracer 300 and it’s really not what you would expect. ![]() Tag Heuer Aquaracer Calibre 5 – Best value diver?

Mason's ruby & sapphire mine11/1/2023 Colors for sapphires were bluish-silver, pink and shades of lavender. ![]() The largest size for facet quality stones was about three carats. Of course, the source was never uncovered by Tiffany's. This mine was thought to have been furthest from the host rock source since all the stones tended to be smaller, but of better quality compared to the other original non-salted mines in Cowee Valley. They did not have a whole lot of time to mine themselves and I worked there in the summers in between college and did a little mining in between my laboring there. My family used to run the mine from 1996-2003. I thought it would be all right to post a few samples from the Jacobs Ruby Mine once located near Franklin, North Carolina.

Docker centos 811/1/2023 ![]() This is the case even with "update-crypto-policies -set DEFAULT". docker pull centos:8 8: Pulling from library/centos Digest: sha256:a27fd8080b517143cbbbab9dfb7c8571c40d67d534bbdee55bd6c473f432b177 Status: Image is up to date for centos:8 docker. However, the website also uses an SSL encryption not supported by RHEL 8.0, and requiring extensive "dnf update" commands to enable. It's not the first time they've done this, they do it with sssd versus the upstream published, upen source Samba software. While CentOS Linux 7 is still supported, it will reach EOL on. Many vendors still rely on docker-ce and have not updated to podman, leaving RHEL 8 maintainers with some very awkward choices about compliance with their vendor's installation instructions and Red Hat's corporate support for podman instead. CentOS Linux 8 has reached its End of Lifetime (EOL) on. It's true that the published "docker-ce.repo" file does not work for RHEL 8, and needs to be edited to point to CentOS for access. ![]() There is a package called "docker" available on RHEL 8, apparently podman based, but quite distinct frm the open source "docker-ce" package from upstream. The title should be refined to "Unable to install docker-ce on RHEL 8".

Setup raspberry pi zero11/1/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() With the hope of getting it work with the sound I've started to build my recording/streaming setup. If you can't read japanese in a blink of an eye, like me, here is the translation (I've also archived a pdf here). Thanks to my order history on the emarket place I was able to get back some clues and after a lot of googling and google translating from asian language I found the all-in-one package howto make the sound work here. It was now time to find the forgotten documentation and all of that stuff that you need to make something work. Thus I've made some archeology and find back the board, swimming amongst my other have-to-try things. Time has passed and as my children started to play with HDMI enable videogames I thought it could be fun to record their gameplay. It is as a copy of the Auvidea B101 HDMI to CSI-2 bridge and I already knew at this time that the sound may not be working as easy as with the orignal one. Years ago I bought a HDMI to CSI adaptor board from a well know chinese emarket place because it was cheap and I as interrested to play with such thing. Setup for recording and streaming with H2C-RPI-B01 board and a Raspberry Pi (HDMI to CSI adapter) The story

Intel hd 3000 windows 1011/1/2023 ![]() Hotline Miami is not just one of the best low-end PC games but also one of the greatest projects of all time.ĭirectX 11 Compatible Card with 512MB Dedicated Memory as a Minimum ![]() Perhaps more importantly, the game is a lot of fun to play, and it has not aged a bit since its 2012 debut. ![]() Straightforward as the formula sounds on paper, Hotline Miami contains quite a bit of depth, both in the way stages need to be approached and the narrative that drives the slaughter. RELATED: The Best Free-To-Play Games On PC As the killer shoots their way through a building's floors, they leave behind a trail of blood, guts, and bonus points. Hotline Miami follows a nameless protagonist who receives cryptic messages that are generally interpreted as "go here and kill everyone." Set in the late '80s, the top-down shooter is drenched in neon lights and video game eccentricities that inspire players to not give much consideration to the reasons behind their actions. DirectX 8-compatible graphics card with at least 32MB of video memory

Best option of course would be that customer obtains PCs with a Windows OEM licenses - in case of academic customer "Windows Pro for Education" would be the best choice, only available by certain OEMs though.

Adobe lightworks11/1/2023 ![]() You’re still limited to 720p - 1080p is a paid-for option. Some of the ‘premium’ options may sound odd, especially when it comes to export. Yes, Lightworks is free - at least a version of it is - but if you want to take advantage of all the features this video editing software has to offer, you’ll need to pay for the privilege. In fact, a lot of the latest improvements only apply to the Create and Pro versions, so it’s worth mentioning them. Lightworks has a good range of effects, including three-way colour correction (Image credit: Future) From free to Pro We’ve ranked the best video editing computers, if you need enhanced performance. Any version of Lightworks can decode all of these, leading to improved real-time editing not only on Macs, but also on Windows and Linux computers using such files. ![]() We can’t go back and check if this was the case back then, or if this is a new addition, but either way, adding clips on multiple layers is much easier than we’d initially thought, It could be easier still, as other video editors automatically shift the audio to the right location, but Lightworks’ method does offer you a little more flexibility, for more advanced users.Īn advantage that was introduced with the latest version (v2022), is support for Apple’s ProRes codecs, ranging from 422 Proxy right up to 4444 XQ. Turns out, this can be done by dragging the mouse onto the desired audio layers. (Image credit: Future) EditingĬutting a film in Lightworks doesn’t appear to have changed since the 2020 version, although we feel we need to amend a statement we’d made last time: back then we were struggling to manage to add a video clip on a second layer, without it overwriting the audio laid out by clips on the first one. One great new addition is support for online media services when importing. |
