So, um, a lot of people with insomnia, they spend a lot of time awake in bed and ruminating and kind of, they're worried about how they're going to sleep. So, um, another application is insomnia and insomnia, a lot, has like a really big cognitive and psychological component. I'm also interested in lucid dreaming as a treatment for other sleep disorders. And so now we're trying to kind of combine that research and see if we can induce dreams. Um, I've done research on inducing lucid dreams, perhaps using, um, the techniques like the reality checking, but also using like light cues in the lab. Michelle Carr: So I've done studies already on the relationship between lucidity and positive mood and between lucidity and sleep quality. And you can create your own personal therapies. Um, and it does this, um, hopefully while you're dreaming to, to remind you to become lucid.ĪLICE: Imagine one day where you can lucid dream-anytime, anywhere. You try to detect you're in REM sleep and then we'll deliver maybe an auditory cue.If it's an app, or if it's a mask, it might have a light cue, or it might have a vibration cue. So a lot of masks or headbands, um, or even just apps, um, they try to detect when you're in REM sleep, that's the tricky part (laughs). And a lot of technologies are trying to allow people to do this on their own at home. Um, so that's a technique we're still using. That's, that's a signal that it's from the outside world and you're dreaming right now. And the idea is basically like when you're in REM sleep and in a dream you're still, um, you're still incorporating sensory stimulation.So if you notice this flashing red LED light, like maybe your dream, the sun starts flashing, or maybe the lights in the supermarket start flashing. Um, and we're still using these techniques in laboratories now. It just has like a red LED light on the inside of the mask that is supposed to be presented to you when you're in REM sleep. Michelle Carr: The main technology is being developed around lucid dreaming actually do also stem from Stephen LaBerge's work in like the '70s and '80s, and even a device that he developed called the dream light, which is like a mask that, um, plays well. They work with neuro-technology as well as touch, scent and sound to help people re-script the dramas of their sleeping lives. So it's very important for, for both mental and physical well being.ĪLICE: Michelle and other dream engineers continue to leverage the original research methods of Dr. And it seems like during REM, and even in dreams that we're, we're using our bodies and we're learning how to interact with the world and we're learning how to develop. So REM sleep seems really important for that. Um, and we know when, when REM sleep is disrupted, um, you're more likely to perhaps, uh, experience nightmares or experience post-traumatic stress, um, so less resilience to stressful experiences. Michelle Carr: REM sleep seems to play a role, especially in things like emotional adaptation, so adapting to stressful experiences, for example. REM sleep is the fourth or final stage of our normal sleep cycle, and the core space for dream therapeutics. It reduces your distress as well, because you don't feel helpless.ĪLICE: Lucid dreaming happens mostly during rapid eye movement or (REM)sleep. And doing that, um, having that experience reduces nightmare frequency. Michelle Carr: So,if you become lucid in a nightmare, you can choose to not be afraid, or you can choose to interact with the threat in a new way. She is a Postdoctoral Associate in the Department of Psychiatry, working in the Sleep and Neurophysiology Research Laboratory at University of Rochester Medical Center. So through lucid dreaming, when you learn to have some, um, some control or some, you have choices, you can choose how to, how to act in a dream when you're lucid.ĪLICE: Michelle Carr is a dream engineer. Michelle Carr: Lucid dreaming has mostly been studied so far for, as a treatment for nightmares, uh, even in post-traumatic stress disorder because people who have PTSD often have recurring nightmares about their traumatic experience. And with control often comes lucidity because you notice “what am I doing –I’m flying –this is a dream”. Without saying to themselves “I’m flying –what’s that mean? I must be in a dream.” So the control dimension and reflective awareness dimension, they’re not identical, they’re usually mixed together though. Stephen LaBerge: Sometimes people fly in their dreams, for example. Stephen LaBerge is a psycho-physiologist who pioneered the scientific study of lucid dreaming at Stanford University in the 1970s. Stephen LaBerge: Dream control usually means doing magical things in your dream –things that would be impossible to do.ĪLICE: Dr. I don’t know about you, but I find it fascinating that we can engineer our dreams. I’m one part human and one part AI, and I’m always in a state of wonder.

I’ve written about this for CNC Router Clock Projects before on CNCCookbook. I love the exposed gearing of some clocks. University College London’s 3D Printed Clock Now go on, admit it, it’d be pretty cool to hang that up on your wall and tell your buddies you’d made it with your 3D Printer! These are the parts you’ll be 3D printing for the MakerBot Clock… This is another Thingiverse project, and looks to be a fairly simple 3D printer project to make a clock like this: All the necessary files are available ( links on the video page) as well as this video of the clock: Maybe this kind of a construct is part of your next automated manufacturing invention? After all, the Arduino computer that powers it made it possible for an extremely simple mechanical mechanism to do some really sophisticated things. If nothing else, maybe it’ll give you an idea for some other machine. The plotclock definitely falls into the category of a “Thingy”. Full details are available on how to build your own plotclock over on Thingiverse. This is one of those Arduino projects, and it uses 3 servos from the radio controlled airplane and car hobby to move the pen. Not sure how practical some of these things are, but they are definitely fun. Combining computers, CNC/Robotics, and clever programming can produce amazing results. This is the kind of crazy over-the-top project nobody would’ve even dreamed of back in the late 70’s when the personal computer revolution started. Since seeing is believing, check the video: It even erases it so it can write it again, over and over. It’s a 3D Printed Clock that writes the time out on a scrap of whiteboard with a marker. This first one has little to do with clockwork and everything to do with clocks and just plain being cool, so I had to start here. Plotclock: An Open Source 3D Printed Clock that Writes the Time This post is a survey of some 3D Printed Clockwork projects I found interesting. The biggest hit to date had been a Turner’s Cube, but I digress. I make a lot of tooling and parts for other projects (spares for some of my cars, for example), but it isn’t very often that I get to make something they really think is cool. Who knows, maybe this would be a good way to prototype some of the gear trains for my Astro Clock? This also goes under the category of wanting to do something with CNC that my (nearly all) non-CNC friends would find interesting. Meanwhile, with a new 3D Printer on its way to CNCCookbook (just got the tracking notice yesterday, very excited!), I started wondering about making a clock with the 3D Printer. It’s one of those projects I promise myself I will be devoted to when my life is a little less busy (does that time ever come?). Long time CNCCookbook readers will have come across my project-in-planning Astronomical Clock.

Sir Hammerlocks Big Game Hunt DLC Part 0 - Savage Lands Find and talk to Sir Hammerlock. In the UK, "Rock and Roll" was one of over 25 hit singles for Glitter. Since Glitter's convictions for child sex offences, the song's continued use has been controversial. It was also in North America that the "Part 2" became popularly associated with sports, as a number of professional teams began to play the song during games to invigorate the audience. "Rock and Roll" is Glitter's only top ten single in the United States. In concert, Glitter merged both into one performance. Both parts peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. Co-written by Glitter and Mike Leander, the song is in two parts: Part 1 is a vocal track reflecting on the history of the genre, and Part 2 is a mostly instrumental piece. " Rock and Roll" is the debut single by English glam rock singer Gary Glitter that was released in 1972, from his debut studio album Glitter.

We are going to focus on pistols that are chambered for the 9x19mm Parabellum/Luger. There are a variety of 9mm variations with slightly different dimensions. These are some of the characteristics that make 9mm handguns so popular with civilians and professionals alike. They are easy to use, versatile, accurate out of the box, low maintenance, with light to moderate recoil and clean/crisp trigger pulls. People want something that can reliably stop a human or hit a target at close range, not necessarily down a rhinoceros or catch a squirrel.ĩmm pistols are used for self-defense, sport shooting, target practice, or military and law enforcement purposes. This characteristic is probably the biggest reason why the 9mm has been so widely adopted by civilians, law enforcement and military units around the world. So the 9mm has always been a perfect balance of defensive stopping power and firing capacity. The idea behind the development of the 9mm was to create a round that had sufficient stopping power but wouldn’t be so big that it would limit the magazine capacity of firearms. Revolvers simply don’t provide the rapid firing and high magazine capacity of semi-automatics. All of the pistols in this article are semi-automatic because autoloaders are by far the most popular type of 9mm pistols which are designed for accuracy, durability, concealability, rapid fire capability, and high magazine capacity. This list will feature the best and most accurate 9mm pistols out of box that will come in different shapes and sizes while serving a variety of functions. Our list of 9mm handguns will satisfy those users, along with serious range shooters, sport competitors, and gun collectors. That’s because the average person just wants a reasonably accurate 9mm at 25 yards that will protect them and their family at a moment’s notice. Many people want a versatile weapon that can be stored at home, concealed, and occasionally taken out to the range for target practice (with minimal training or upkeep). We have purposely left out most elite, high end competition pistols and included instead a variety of models that will satisfy most of our readers. If that was the case then our list would be shorter and outside the price range for most people. Where Brannagh plays Wallander as a man who lives in a world of crime and is not emotionally shut down, Lassgard does something much more interesting with the character for me. However when I stumbled on this series on you tube, a whole new door opened on the likable detective. He also added, "It got to a point where, ‘I don’t want to do that,’ so I said to Sera, like, ‘My desire would be zero, to go from 100 to zero.Like many who have come to admire the detective written about by Henning Menckell, the first Wallander I saw as an English speaker was the Kenneth Brannagh one and I was impressed and moved by the writing and acting. I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned it publicly, but one of the main things is, ‘Do I want to put myself back on a career path where I’m always romantic lead?’" he said. "I asked Sera Gamble, creator, ‘Can I just do no more intimacy scenes?’ This was actually a decision I had made before I took the show. Netflix Badgley said that he had asked the show's creator and executive producer, Sera Gamble, to make Season 4 have less sexually explicit scenes. The fourth season of You has just launched on Netflix, and the 36-year-old actor recently talked about it on Podcrushed, a podcast produced by Stitcher Studios.

Playing a white male serial killer on a show rn but shading other people for doing the same!? Glass houses sir - dylan February 13, 2023įr he is speaking the fucking truth. Penn Badgley has been making some weird ass comments lately. I really don’t mean to be one of those people, but at what point will Penn Badgley stop being sanctimonious about people enjoying his show, finding his character attractive, and glorifying serial killers through true crime and just do his fucking job of playing a serial killer?- bigdaddychacha February 14, 2023 taking issue with over serial killer series is a bit much, don’t you think? □- ♕ ìяєlλɴd February 15, 2023 Don’t take money from if you’re so disturbed by serial killers- JaneBurgessAZ February 13, 2023 Yet Penn plays an attractive, stalker and serial killer on You. That’s who Dahmer was, Netflix didn’t create who he was. The Internet isn't pleased by Penn Badgley's saying Netflix made Dahmer attractive and charming is laughable. In the Netflix movies Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile and Dahmer: Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story, Efron plays Bundy, and Peters plays Dahmer. I do, but they’re long and… yeah, it’s weird, man." That is squarely on the shoulders of Netflix. But Ted Bundy? That’s on you! Jeffrey Dahmer? That is on you – that is on Netflix. "Now, to be fair, with our show, you’re meant to fall in love with him. Penn Badgley, who plays the role of a serial-killer in the Netflix smash hit 'You', has criticized the service for allegedly glorifying serial killers. Badgley spoke about the audience's fascination with serial killers like Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight.īadgley was asked what he’d tell "people who find themselves attracted to serial killers," to which he said, "You need to look at that inside."

You can back away from the large image while holding your frame (zoom out) to see the entire image at once, or you can move closer (zoom in) to see only a portion. The portion of the large image that you can see through the frame is the visual viewport. The small frame is surrounded by opaque material which obscures your view of all but a portion of the large image. Now image you have a smaller frame through which you look at the large image. Imagine the layout viewport as being a large image which does not change size or shape. George Cummins explains the basic concept best here at Stack Overflow: That, however, requires it to be split into two: the visual viewport and the layout viewport. The obvious solution is to make the viewport wider. So the viewport is too narrow to serve as a basis for your CSS layout. Mobile browser vendors want to offer their clients the best possible experience, which right now means “as much like desktop as possible.” Hence some sleight of hand was necessary. Even apart from the fundamental question of whether you should do that at all, the practical problem is that only very few site owners are sufficiently clued-in to cater specifically to mobile devices. One way of solving the problem is building a special website for mobile browsers. Your liquid layout would look horribly squashed. Would do exactly the same as desktop browsers, they’d make the element about 40px wide at most, and that’s far too narrow. Let’s go back to our sidebar with width: 10%. If we’d copy the desktop model one-to-one, our CSS would start to misfire horrendously. The most important problems center on CSS, especially the dimensions of the viewport. Sites must work on mobile devices, too, so we have to get them to display well on a small screen. (Some phones report larger widths, but they’re lying - or at the very least giving us useless information.)Īn intermediate layer of tablet devices such as the iPad or the rumoured HP webOS-based one will bridge the gap between desktop and mobile, but that doesn’t change the fundamental problem. Mobile browsers display significantly less of a desktop-optimised website than desktop browsers either by zooming out until the text is unreadably small, or by showing only the small part of the site that fits in the screen.Ī mobile screen is far smaller than a desktop screen think about 400px wide at maximum, and sometimes a lot less. When we compare the mobile browsers to the desktop ones, the most obvious difference is screen size. If you’re totally new to mobile I advise you to read part one about the desktop browsers first, in order to set the stage in a familiar environment. On this page we’re going to talk about the mobile browsers. Of various important elements work, such as the element, as well as the window and the screen.

We donât know what the value of Google Reader is to Google. But it didnât read that way, at least to some developers. This may not have been the authorâs intention: itâs possible the author was being careful and doing the right thing by mentioning data exporting. That characterization is mine, yes, but itâs shared by other developers (not just RSS reader developers) that have read that announcement. While thatâs a good thing â being able to move oneâs data is important â the emphasis made it seem like a request or a warning. The wording of the recent Google Reader announcement emphasized how users could export their data. At this writing, a couple days after the recent announcement, the question remains unanswered.ĭespite all the #googlereader and traffic on Twitter since the announcement, the Twitter account has been silent. And Google has cut apps before, even high-profile apps like Google Wave.įeedDemon author Nick Bradbury asked on the unofficial API support list if Google Reader is being retired. Though Google Reader is a mature app, its lack of an official, documented, supported API sends a message, intended or not, about its importance to Google. While I remain optimistic about the future of Google Reader and apps that sync via Google Reader, there are a few reasons for concern: (The situation is similar to Twitter clients: users are not stuck with one client from one particular developer.) Itâs been an especially good thing for RSS reader users, who can mix-and-match clients on different platforms, who can move with relative ease between one client and another. The gamble has paid off so far, with the exception of the features about to be replaced. With syncing part of the definition of a minimum viable RSS reader, and with Google Reader the only option for syncing, the choice to use Google Reader is more necessity than choice. Smart developers are rightly uncomfortable relying on undocumented, unofficial, unsupported APIs.īut, because syncing is so important for so many RSS reader users, developers have had to gamble. Though RSS reader developers have received much-appreciated unofficial support from Google, thatâs not the same as building a feature on solid ground. This is unlike Google Maps and others which do have documented and official APIs.īecause the API is not official, there is no commitment to keeping it working. The Google Reader API is undocumented, unsupported, and unofficial. There are a couple things that RSS reader developers know, that the average RSS reader user probably doesnât know, which will make this more apparent: I mean that using it as a syncing system for other apps is fragile. When I say that the system is fragile, I donât mean that Google Reader itself is fragile. (See What the Upcoming Google Reader Changes Mean for FeedDemon for an example of how one RSS reader will have to change.) Nevertheless, there are users who will miss the current, about-to-disappear features. This makes sense from Googleâs point of view â a single, Google-wide social network should be better than a separate network for each Google app. Google Readerâs social and sharing features are going away in favor of integration with Google+. This announcement isnât just a reminder of the fragility of the system: it removes some features that people use. Though I donât use Google Reader directly, I â like many iPhone, iPad, and Mac users â use RSS readers that sync via Google Reader. The recent announcement of changes coming for Google Reader worries me some. |
