![]() It is linguistic survey of the municipality of Milagros in the province of Masbate. ![]() This paper is another attempt to study the language. This shows that as a language, Masbatenyo is not a well-researched area in the field of linguistic and there really is a need for further discussion of the said language and the area where it is spoken as first language. Aside from several instructional and religious materials, there is no other published work on the language. There are but a very few researches and studies that have been done on Masbatenyo language. However, other essential data that concerns the province are not given enough attention. These basic geographical data are well-known. It is also known as the Rodeo Capital of the Philippines. Masbate is just a small province consists of three island namely Masbate, Ticao and Burias. Finally, it considers the implications of the weir’ s dating for our understanding of saltmarsh morphodynamics in this south-western part of Southampton Water, and considers in turn the implications of these dynamics for the material survival of the site. The paper discusses the function and operation of the weir, and places it in its social and historical context. The weir also shows striking structural similarities with examples in use today in Basse Normandy, on the southern shore of the English Channel. The weir is contemporary with wooden v-shaped fishweirs found elsewhere in southern and central Britain, and also Ireland, but its circular catchment ‘ pound’ remains unique, in these islands, to the Solent region: it has a close parallel with another Saxon-era weir on the nearby Isle of Wight. Clusters of as-yet undated roundwood posts within the catchment area of the weir are interpreted as the frames for fish traps that are assumed to pre- or post-date the operational period of the weir itself. Radiocarbon dating of oak roundwood stakes taken from the main weir structure date it to the middle Saxon period. The remains of a timber v-shaped fishweir and associated structures have been discovered near Ashlett Creek on the tidal mudflats of Southampton Water in Hampshire, southern Britain. Of importance was a need to highlight the value of pursuing this type of research for contemporary communities and maritime archaeological practitioners in the current international management framework for underwater cultural heritage. ![]() The paper draws on comparative data from other places of the world to investigate weirs and traps, and to see if a similar revival could be observed. ![]() A recent survey in Yap, Federated States of Micronesia found a diverse and extensive number of fish weirs and traps, and a community keen to restore and reinvigorate their associated cultural practices and community spirit. It was considered that they have fulfilled their historical and economic role and it was the loss of community spirit that has contributed to their decline. In many places the weirs and traps have been left to deteriorate and other more productive but less sustainable practices have taken their place. Stone wall fish weirs and traps were once an important means for inland and coastal communities to catch fish.

Luckily, John Riggs has another youtube video that perfectly explains how to use the application. The most common process for editing the title relies on a program called SMB Title Editor, but the text in the application is garbled due to the unlocalised font rendering of Japanese characters. cart is so resource constrained that the title screen does not exist anywhere in the cart as a single cohesive graphic instead, it is assembled from various reused tiles. Changing this screen was a high priority, but at first it seemed a little difficult. The first thing a player sees when booting up the game is a fun and inviting title screen. In this way, Super Max is a drop in replacement for all your childhood gaming memories! Title Swap I stayed away from making bigger changes, like changing the layout of the levels, because I wanted the game to be played in a way that closely matches a player's muscle/nostalgia memory of the game. Overall, the total amount of graphic data in the original game is very limited.if you noticed, the clouds use exactly the same sprites as the shrubs, so as a result the total visual character of the game feels familiar. There are a few more details throughout the game (not all pictured in the above graphic): my name is inserted at the top of the screen, the mushrooms are now gameboys, the ivys are tomato vines, the fire flower is a fire pizza, and a few more switches/insertions. Oh yeah, and I made my pants pink by swapping the palette used, a process I'll describe in part 2. Though, for Little Max I left the overalls in to make him seem more like a kid version of Super Max. My edits are mainly centered around slimming Mario down a bit, while getting rid of Super Mario's overalls and his giant nose and moustache. rom, the data for the sprites is in a pretty logical order: just about all the tiles for the Mario sprites are aligned left to right, head to toe. Note that the whole graphic is made from screengrabs of Nixel, a browser based sprite editor. In the gif above, the left side shows the first four tiles which compose Mario's upper torso, and the right side shows a sample of the subsequent tiles used in the game. To get a sense of what is involved, take a look below to see how I've changed the Mario sprites to Max sprites: Using TLP, the sprite data can be viewed and edited, allowing you modify the existing graphics. cart data in the NES rom can be inspected visually using a program called Tile Layer Pro (TLP). Riggs demonstrates how all of the Super Mario Bros. But how do you change graphics in a game that already exists? To figure out this process, this youtube video by John Riggs was very helpful. project, an important part was to switch the Mario sprite into something that looked a bit more like me. For Mario things get a bit more complicated.Mario runs, jumps, crouches, swims, and becomes Super! Each of these actions need to be animated on screen in some way, while keeping within the NES restrictions on colour use and rom storage space.įor my Super Lupo Bros. When the Goomba walks across the screen, the sprite is flipped to animate a walking motion. Each character in the game uses a combination of tiles to draw and animate their movements, for example: a Goomba's sprite is composed of 4 tiles stacked two rows high and two columns wide. ![]() Each sprite-group can only use 4 colours, with one of those colours used for transparency. In terms of the NES, a sprite is just a drawing composed of a set of 8 by 8 pixel tiles. So, this blog post and the next is an attempt to corral all of this information in one place, not really to make a "how-to" guide, but to leave a strong trail of breadcrumbs for anyone else (or future me) who wants to do the same thing. ![]() The work of figuring all this out led to a number of interesting processes: sprite editing, palette swapping, title editing, and chip flashing. In it's presentation, the installation explicitly referenced a home gaming environment, in order to help facilitate a gallery goers participation with the game. This was an important aspect of the project, as I wanted the sense of playing the game to fit into a player's memories and feelings of nostalgia. For the exhibition Galaxy Champion FUN ZONE, the modified version of the game was loaded onto a cartridge and made playable in a real NES system. To that end, I edited a rom of the original game, in order to swap the Mario sprite with one that more closely resembles me. The impetus for this project was to take an example from my childhood video gaming experiences and insert my childhood back into that game. My first hi-larious project was to insert myself in Super Mario Bros. Old games for the Nintendo Entertainment System can be lightly hacked in order to change the sprites, sounds and more. ![]() Be sure to turn UPnP on on your router to get those speeds.

Syncthing flawlessly keeps the same amount of files in sync with a twentieth (!) of the memory footprint.Maybe a tad more finicky to setup at first, but a joy to use.Upgrading the Synology to 8 Gb RAM and seeing Resilio Sync crash in the middle of indexing was the last straw.

Delete it from the machine that's out of sync. In any case the recovering process is always the same: disconnect the folder from sharing with other peers. Sync issues could also sometimes occur between the two Mac clients, with more than enough RAM or CPU bandwidth to cover Resilio's humungous needs.Most of the time, when you realise something is not working with Resilio, it is too late, and you probably lost data. The folder structure would be intact, but files would be missing. When I finally got Resilio Sync to run again on the NAS, the internal index would be messed up, and big chunks of files would disappear from my Mac mini. The MacBook and the Mac mini would keep syncing but the NAS would stop syncing the Documents folders for instance, where all my accounting is. crash) silently and my NAS and Apple devices would get out of sync during days or weeks.

On both the remote Ubuntu server and the Synology, Resilio Sync would consume 90% off the available 8 Gb of RAM. This would usually only make things worse, as it would crash before being done indexing the files. I attempted to reinstall Resilio Sync, to configure it fresh half a dozen of times, both on the headless Ubuntu server and the Synology. So I upgraded to the max recommended of 8 Gb. It would constantly crash trying to run it on my Synology with the stock 4 Gb RAM. Resilio Sync will eat all your server's RAM.Resilio Sync is a *pain* to setup on a headless server, and I even had to write my own guide with very detailed steps to be able to reinstall it every time I would switch servers.Here's a summary of my experience after running this setup for 6 years: These files are code repositories and text files, binaries, movies, Flac files, images, loads of smart previews from Lightroom, pdfs.Yes, the ratio files-to-folder is a bit odd, and it seems that something's up with the Pictures folder.

The band ended up touring for 24 months straight, doing various tours with Van Halen, Seether, and Three Doors Down. The band toured extensively in support of the album, playing over 400 live shows over the course of 20. All four singles charted in the top five of the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts, peaking at fifth, third, fifth, and second, respectively. Four singles were released from the album: " Fly from the Inside", " 45", a cover of the Lynyrd Skynyrd song, " Simple Man", and " Burning Bright". While not an immediate success, through the extensive touring and successful singles, eventually certified platinum by the RIAA in the United States, indicating sales of over 1 million. The resulting work was the band's debut album, Leave a Whisper, which was released May 27, 2003. The four worked together on creating demos, and submitted their work-in-progress material to Atlantic, who approved of the material and green-lighted a full-length album. The original lineup was rounded out by drummer Barry Kerch, who was the seventh drummer the band had auditioned for the spot. ![]() Smith and Stewart began recording demos together in a small local studio, whose owner recommended they meet with her fiancé, guitarist Jasin Todd, who Smith brought in as the third member.

![]() Suppose Time Machine’s options don’t provide enough flexibility for you, and you don’t want to get into creating your own cron jobs. ![]() You can verify that your backup ran by waiting until after the scheduled time, and once the backup has completed, you should see it in Time Machine or even in the Time Machine settings where it shows the Last backup. This is because we are actually running the backup manually it’s just that crontab will be running it on its schedule, and the Time Machine utility does not know about that. Keep in mind that you will not see a Next backup scheduled in the Time Machine settings. The -e parameter stands for edit and allows you to edit the crontab file. Step 2: Open the crontab file using the crontrab command. Use whatever method you prefer to start up the Terminal application. Then follow the steps below to schedule a backup using crontab. You can use the steps in the previous section to verify and/or change this if needed. Make sure that Time Machine’s backup frequency is set to Manually. I will use nano in the example below just to make things a bit easier, but if you prefer to use vi, you can just leave the VISUAL=nano part out of the command. For some, this may be ok, but if you prefer to open it with another editor such as nano, you can do so by specifying the editor in the crontab command as shown below. This is done with the crontab -e command, which will open the crontab file in an editor.īy default, your system will open it with the vi editor. Once you have figured out your schedule and know how to format it with your command, you will need to enter it into crontab. I highly suggest it if you decide to use this method and are not already familiar with cron. For example, if I want it to run at 12:30 and 8:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, The command would be:Īs you can see, there are many ways to set this up, and I won’t dig into this part any deeper.

Step 1: Open System Settings.Ĭlick on the Apple symbol in the upper left corner of the screen and select System Settings. When you are ready to do this, you can use the following steps. To do this, you will want to set it up at the particular time and/or day you want it to run each time. If the settings available in Time Machine are adequate for your backup requirements, you can easily set up a basic schedule using its settings. Let’s first go through the basic configuration of Time Machine, and then we can look at some of the other methods. For example, you might want to run them twice a day, or you may want to run them 3 or 4 times a week, and you may want to run them at times when you are not busy using your computer.Īlthough Time Machine does not inherently provide this configuration, there are a couple of methods you can use that will give you much more flexibility in scheduling your backups. Some users may require more options for when and how often Time Machine runs backups. These basic selections can work great for some, and as long as you enable it at the time you want it to run, you have some control over it. If weekly is selected, it will run on that same day every week at 8:05. If you choose to run daily, it will run at 8:05 each day. For example, if it is 8:05 and you choose hourly, it will run at 9:05, 10:05, 11:05, and so on. If you choose hourly, daily, or weekly from the selection above, the backup will start running as soon as you enable this and continue at the frequency you select every hour, day, or week. ![]() If you have already tried this, you have seen that the only options are to schedule Time Machine to run manually, hourly, daily, or weekly. In my opinion, it should be, but for some reason, Time Machine does not provide many options for scheduling backups.
