Reading text from the image with another alt text tool (full post on this linked below)Ĭhoosing color palettes for vision loss and colorblindness.When posting an image on social media, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or Pinterest.Adding alt text as a caption or comment to the original image.By adding a text description to the alt text attribute when uploading an image.Options for including alt text in color palettesĪlt text for color palettes can be added in a few different ways, including: How To Write Alt Text and Image Descriptions for the Visually Impaired.If someone fails to add alt text for an image, the screen reader will either simply say “image” or ignore the image entirely, which means that users miss out on potentially valuable visual content. Screen readers will read alt text out loud so that users who are blind or that have low vision can understand what is in an image. What is alt text?Īlt text is a short written description that displays in place of an image if the image fails to load that tells people what is in an image, such as text, colors, or basic essential details. Here are my tips for how to write alt text for color palettes and how to make color palettes accessible and easy to understand. Color palettes are an essential tool for helping to organize color information for branding and design projects, and being able to share them in an accessible way is important for people with vision loss and color deficiencies. I’ve been working with a lot of different color palettes lately as I’ve been redecorating my room, helping a friend redecorate their room, and also working on other web and graphic design projects.

9/22/2023 0 Comments Ouija seanceWith that as a lead-in, you’d expect some sort of familiarity with the concepts. The words are right there in the title of the movie “ouija” and “séance”. And don’t even get me started on the “séance”. Our four main characters, though? They all come off as mercurial ass-hats whose reactions to things are either blown way out of proportion or just plain bizarre. Sure, he creeps around a bit in the beginning, but deep down he’s good people. First of all, the only character even remotely likable is the axe-wielding caretaker. The writing is at the core of most of the horribleness. As is pretty common with these films, Ouija Seance fails spectacularly on nearly every front. Notice I said “attempts” to follow the formula. It also did well with moviegoers and that’s exactly the kind of pattern a mockbuster studio looks for.Įnter Ouija Seance: The Final Game (2018).įilmed in Italy (an homage to the glory days of the spaghetti western?) using an English-speaking cast, Ouija Seance attempts to follow the tried-and-true ouija board movie formula: get a group of young adults, put them in a room with a ouija board, unleash something evil, and watch the ensuing mayhem. It managed to pull in a respectable sum at the box office and earned itself a follow-up, Ouija: Origin of Evil (2016). For example, back in 2014, Blumhouse helped produce Ouija. What you often see are copies of legitimate movies that have done well enough to spawn a sequel or two. The horror genre is no stranger to this treatment it just doesn’t have nearly as many blockbusters to play with. Their Independents’ Day (2016) hit the market on June 7th so it would be all set up to ride the swell from Independence Day: Resurgence (2016) which came out June 24th. Their Atlantic Rim: Resurrection (2018) was put out on February 15th, just a few weeks before the March 23rd release of Pacific Rim: Uprising (2018). One of the masters of this practice is The Asylum studio. Its sole purpose being to ride the wave created by whatever giant Hollywood epic it copies. Traditionally, the mockbuster title is rushed to market a few weeks before the real movie’s release date. Also known as knockbusters or “drafting opportunities” (in the racing sense, not architecturally speaking - sorry, Eric), these movies tend to be micro-budget projects thrown together in record time and then given titles that sound similar to legitimately huge movies. Welcome to the wonderful world of mockbusters. I doubt they were talking about these movies, though. “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery,” or so the saying goes. I do think it deserves to be seen, and diehard paranormal activity fans is the crowd I would recommend this to the most.1/2 out of ★★★★★ Beware the “mockbuster”: landmine of the cinematic landscape. Although it’s produced great, filmed great and features capable performances, I do have to grade it as a horror film…and it was slightly under the mark. ” …I have to admit that it was underwhelming in some areas, especially the horror aspects. Despite Ouija Seance’s title, I can only think of two or three scenes in which something vaguely paranormal happens To call this movie a cookie-cutter film would do a disservice to cookie-cutter films.” Flickering Myth “ Ouija Seance attempts to scare the audience in one of two ways: by playing loud noises, and by showing shadows moving across the backdrop of scenes, accompanied by loud noises. I can’t picture anyone having any sort of investment in the scare-free movie’s undercooked plot developments or uninteresting personalities.” Culture Crypt The Ouija board carved from a tree stump looks unusually cool, but it only peripherally factors into the film, never mind the title. “Bland dialogue dares not be more creative than “I’ll kill you, you bitch!” or someone shouting “I can’t see!” after something blinds his eyes. Some of the acting is dodgy, and the resolution is far from dazzling and can be seen coming from a million miles away. Ultimately, the plot is a hodgepodge of disparate elements tossed into the mix with none of it sticking together, being clarified or making much sense. 9/22/2023 0 Comments Di ep ioHealth Regen, Max Health, Body Damage and Movement Speed only make an effect on the Factory, just as how they buff other tanks.Reload: Increases Factory’s Drone spawn rate as well as the Drones’ rate of fire.Bullet Damage: Increases the Drones’ Bullet and Body Damage.Bullet Penetration: Increases the Drones’ Bullet Penetration and Health.Bullet Speed: Increases Factory Drones’ Bullet Speed and Movement Speed.When not controlled by the player, the Factory’s Drones will go after nearby Polygons and Tanks, but once the player is damaged, they will target whatever damaged their Factory (if the aggressor is within their trigger range). Below 5 background squares, the orbit collapses and Drones are forced together in a star formation.Past the 18 background square limit, the Drones stop orbiting and are repelled from the cursor altogether.Any Drones between 5-18 background squares from the cursor will move in a clockwise spiral, eventually escaping from it.When using Right-Click, the Drones will move in various directions while shooting away from the cursor. Otherwise, the Factory's Minions will encircle its target and continually shoot at it. They can still be tricked into doing it by hovering one’s mouse past the target’s position (instead of above it), moving the blue orbit past the target’s location, and thus tricking the drones into trying to go past it. If the distance is lower, the Drones will be repelled until the blue orbit’s range is met.īecause of these mechanics, unlike with the other branches of Overseer, the Factory’s Drones won’t just ram targets when clicking upon them.(It should be noted that the drones are always correcting their position while doing this, presumably because of the recoil they get from shooting bullets). Once in a 16 background square radius around the pointer, the Drones will start moving around it in a counter-clockwise orbit.If the Drones are far away from the pointer, they will be attracted to it until the blue orbit’s range is met.When using Left-Click, the Drones will move in various directions while aiming for the cursor’s position. Because of this, different drones may perform different actions all at the same time. That is to say, they will move differently depending on their location with the cursor. The Factory Drones present more complex behavior than other types of Drones. When taking the Drone’s Durability into account, the firepower of the Drone Spawner alone is equal to that of the Overlord’s 4 spawners combined. The Drones are released from the Factory’s Spawner at a fairly regular rate, equal to that of the Manager’s Drone spawn rate. Nevertheless, their bodies, being twice as strong as normal triangle Drones, move at around only half the speed in return. Given equal builds, each Factory Drone will shoot as many Bullets as a Basic Tank of the same build, albeit with reduced range and Bullet Speed.Īs Drones, the Factory’s weapons present increased durability when compared to other projectiles. But the Factory makes up for it in numbers: when combined, the firepower of the 6 Drones’ Barrels is around 96% of that of a Basic Tank. Individual Drone Bullets do not deal much damage - relatively speaking, they are about 53% as strong as those of an Auto Turret. The Factory’s Drones present Barrels of their own from which they can shoot Bullets. When not controlled by the player, the Drones will go after nearby entities, which includes enemy players and Polygons, continually shooting very small Bullets (similar to those of the Gunner) at them. The Factory can control up to six Factory Drones, also called Minions. In 2015, the GCCC hosted an estimated 2.5 million visitors. The doors opened in September 1980, and Battelle Hall, the Center’s premier venue, quickly became known as a versatile site for family shows, music concerts, theatrical productions, sporting events, large public assemblies, trade shows and athletic competitions. These venues include a variety of convention and exhibition centers, arenas, stadiums, theaters, performing arts centers, equestrian facilities and science centers, worldwide.Ĭonstruction of the Greater Columbus Convention Center began in February 1978, after Battelle Memorial Institute contributed $36.5 million and established the Battelle Commons Company to develop a convention facility in downtown Columbus, Ohio. As the industry leader in venue management, SMG offers expertise in sales and marketing, event booking and programming, food and beverage operations, construction and design consulting, and pre-opening services for more than 250 public assembly facilities. For the past 19 years, the Greater Columbus Convention Center has been managed by SMG. The Greater Columbus Convention Center (GCCC) is owned and developed by the Franklin County Convention Facilities Authority (FCCFA), a quasi-governmental agency charged with a similar role in regard to the Hilton Columbus Downtown and Nationwide Arena. The Greater Columbus Convention Center A perfect destination from the inside outīusiness View Magazine profiles The Greater Columbus Convention Center, 1.7 million square feet of meeting and conference space. taxpayers nearly twice as much as a Virginia does. A Seawolf’s shape and powerplant make it faster-35 knots versus 25 knots-and allow it to carry 50 torpedoes versus the 25 a Virginia can carry.īut those enhancements come at a cost. The SSN(X) could end up looking less like a Virginia and more like a Seawolf, which at 353 feet long and 40 feet wide is shorter but fatter than a Virginia is. Thus the service wants its next submarine-the so-called SSN(X)-to be an open-ocean hunter-killer with the speed, stealth, sensors and weapons it would need to stalk and destroy other subs. The more rival boats ply the oceans, the more the Navy is emphasizing the ability of one submarine to hunt down another submarine. New and improved Russian and Chinese submarines slowly are catching up to the Virginias’ capabilities. Whether the Navy aims for 66 attack subs or 78, it can’t just keep buying Virginias. The Navy’s last credible force-structure plan anticipated the service would possess 66 attack boats in 2048.Ī last-minute-some would say “fantastical”-shipbuilding plan that the outgoing administration of ex-President Donald Trump released in late 2020 called for a force of 78 attack boats by the end of the 2040s. Continuing production of new Virginias should grow the undersea fleet through the 2020s. The Navy projects its attack boat force will decline to a low of 52 in 2022-several fewer than the Chinese navy could operate at the time. The Navy now buys two attack boats every year, somewhat slowing the shrinkage of the submarine fleet as the hulls of 1980s-vintage Los Angeles-class attack boats wear out. The unit cost has risen owing to inflation and upgrades, but the scheme more or less worked. In 2012 the service pulled the trigger on a long-in-the-works scheme to buy two Virginias for a combined $4 billion in 2005 dollars-the “two for four in ‘12” plan. The Navy wanted a cheaper sub-and one it could build in large numbers. But the three boats of the Seawolf class each cost more than $5 billion. 9/22/2023 0 Comments Multidock not openingDespite specific references to mechanical drives in MultiDock literature, the tech response was that this was simply outside their envisioned use pattern. Some Thunderbolt devices had this flaw at first, others did not. My one concern, for which I wrote tech support, was that mechanical drives would fail to spin down unless a Mac was actually asleep. Years ago I would have tried a blend of mechanical and solid state drives. So I'm appropriating their use case but I'm not their use case. I instead want trayless, fanless, not particularly price-sensitive storage, with the media easily transported between locations. They're focused on a very specific use case, video editing from fast SSDs. I'm about to order a MultiDock, and eventually a second for another location. If you do not know that all of your drives are BlackMagic Certified, then it is safe to assume that they can only be used internally, and this is your problem. Motherboard manufacturers routinely distribute lists of compatibly accessories where's the BlackMagic list? I find it astonishing that I cannot find a list of BlackMagic Certified drives. Many SSDs are not designed for external use, and will create myriad problems resembling Thunderbolt cabling issues. (Their 1 TB SSDs are apparently ok in their drives.) Because I was mislead, they processed a late (partial) refund.īottom line, you can only use BlackMagic Certified drives in the MultiDock. Later, they traced myriad Thunderbolt issues to this application, noting that their web site warned against external use of 2 TB SSDs. I ordered a 2 TB SSD from OWC, on their assurance that it would work in their external enclosure. I then checked with OWC tech support, who assured me I was right. I characterized this as a "sodomy" law and thought they were bonkers. Samsung technical support told me that I could not use this drive in an external enclosure. Present but not mounted, it would cause one second delays on an iMac 5K for opening any file. I had truly bizarre problems with the 2 TB Samsung 850 EVO SSD, in an external enclosure. This leads to timing errors where volumes fail to mount on reboot, or that simulate a faulty Thunderbolt cable. This sounds ridiculous how can the inside of an external enclosure not be "internal"? The answer is that one accesses an external enclosure by entirely different protocols, which many SSDs are way too stupid to handle properly. Many SSDs are only guaranteed to work as "internal" drives. As such, it will exhibit incompatibilities one thought one was leaving behind in the 1980's. Their lesser drives are not.ĭespite faith in the idea of SATA standards, one needs to realize that an SSD is a blisteringly stupid computer. Can anyone help with this? Other World Computing notes that their OWC Mercury EXTREME Pro 6G SSD lineup (I am not allowed to post URLs) is Blackmagic Certified. I came here in search of an official list of "BlackMagic Certified" SSDs, to avoid such issues with the MultiDock. I too suspected the Thunderbolt cable, when it was in fact unsuitable SSDs. But since the MultiDock 10G uses SATA 3 (6 Gbps) based connections to the actual drives themselves, the maximum throughput possible to a single drive is even lower, usually around 500 MB/s maximum after accounting for SATA interface overhead (and could be less depending on the drive).I do not yet own a MultiDock, but I recognize exactly the constellation of symptoms described here. USB 3.1 Gen 2 bus speeds are 10 Gbps (1250 MB/s) at the interface level, but due to overhead and other issues, real world maximum performance you can expect at the port level is around 900 MB/s or so. Sometimes this is due to connection related issues and disconnecting and reconnecting the cable improves things.Įven with USB 3.1 Gen 2 speeds, things are never going to be as fast through the MultiDock 10G as with the internal SSD. I've also seen situations where USB 3 capable ports don't always negotiate USB 3 speeds (even when using a USB 3 compatible cable). For example, a lot of USB-C cables designed for charging purposes only support USB 2.0 data speeds as they lack the additional data wires internally to support USB 3 data transfers. Usually the causes of this are some kind of cable or port issue. Although USB 2.0 has a maximum interface bandwidth of 480 Mbps (60 MB/s), due to interface overhead (and a few other factors), have real world transfer speeds in the range of 35 to 40 MB/s, which seems to be inline with what you are seeing. It sounds like the MultiDock 10G is only connected to the computer using USB 2.0 speeds (480 Mbps) rather than USB 3.1 Gen 2 speeds (10 Gbps). 9/22/2023 0 Comments Hazard perception test tipsWhat Is A Potential Hazard?Ī potential hazard is something that may or may not become a hazard. The best way to deal with the hazard perception test in terms of cheating and over clicking is to use common sense and only click when you are sure there is a hazard developing. There is no actual figure given for what is considered to be too many clicks. You will see a warning on the screen and you won’t be able to make any other clicks for What Is Classed As Too Many Clicks? If you constantly click, click in a pattern or repeatedly click, you will be awarded a score of zero. Are There Any Penalties For Clicking Too Much? What Is A “Hazard”?Ī hazard is something that would cause the driver to alter their speed, direction or stop altogether. When the videos are playing, you have to click to indicate that you have noticed a hazard that is developing. The clips are from the point of view of a driver of a normal passenger car. You will be shown 14 video clips of various road conditions. You can be awarded 0 points if you react too late. The sooner you react to the developing hazard, the more points you are awarded, with the most being 5 points and the least being 1. The hazard perception test works on a point basis. How Does The Hazard Perception Test Work? The test is out of 75 points and candidates have to score at least 44 points to pass. You will not be told which clip has 2 hazards in. How Many Hazards Are Shown?Įach of the clips will show 1 hazard that is developing and one of the clips will include 2 developing hazards. It is also thought that these factors can contribute to the likelihood of younger drivers being involved in road accidents compared to drivers who have had more practice at spotting road hazards. The test was designed as newer drivers take longer to notice these sorts of dangers when compared to experienced road users. The hazard perception test looks to test the abilities of new drivers, especially their perception of emerging, potential, developing and actual hazards. What Is The Point Of The Hazard Perception Test? You need to complete and pass the hazard perception part of your theory test in order to gain a pass mark. Why Do I Have To Do The Hazard Perception Test? The DVSA have created a video that explains the theory test, including the hazard perception part: You have to click a mouse or touch the screen to indicate when you notice a hazard developing. It consists of 14 1 minute long CGI videos from the point of view of a passenger car driver and shows various road conditions you could find yourself in. The hazard perception test is the second half of your driving theory test that you need to complete. You can also email us at What Is The Hazard Perception Test?
