11/25/2023 0 Comments Fable 4 xbox 360 gameplay![]() Modern RPGs are all about the next thing to do, but Fable just wants you to have fun. They're just there because someone, somewhere, will love them. Fable has plenty of serious moments, but it's also filled with minute details that don't matter at all. Complete the next quest, unlock the next level, beat the next boss - RPGs are always giving you another thing to keep you occupied, and it's always so aggressively serious. It's all about getting things done, all the time. Many modern RPGs are filled with vast open-worlds and countless quests, discoveries, choices, and ways to personalize your experience, but they also tend to focus unerringly on the completion. Why is it, then, that Fable Anniversary is lingering in my thoughts so much longer than other modern RPGs? What is it about this 19-year-old classic that remains so fun after all this time? Modern games look and play better than any previous generation of gaming, and developers are becoming more creative and ambitious than ever before. I could thank this NPC for their unsolicited compliment, perform a hearty jig for them, or just fart in their face, because why not? (Image credit: Windows Central) Fable isn't afraid to be delightfully silly, and it gives the game a wonderful charm that's just absent in many "AAA" modern RPGs - which often insist on being serious and dramatic to the point of exhaustion. Many of these ways actually make little to no difference to the game's story and are simply ways to have fun amidst all the chaos and seriousness. There are so many small ways you can influence Fable, despite its modest scale, that makes you feel like you have control. They can be necessary for finding secrets, completing quests, and generally being a part of Fable's world. Your Expressions are influenced by your Hero's alignment (how good and evil they are) and how well-known they are. From positive affirmations and pleasant manners to spiteful insults and silly dances, there are plenty of ways to elicit reactions out of NPCs. It's ridiculous.įable isn't afraid to be delightfully silly just because it can.įable also features a healthy number of Expressions that can be used to interact with the people of Albion. Yes, you can own pretty much everything in Fable, as long as you're willing to reduce the population a tad. If homeowners or shopkeepers "mysteriously" pass away or disappear, their properties go on the market and can also be purchased. You can invest in real estate, including buying and furnishing homes for yourself or renting out to tenants for some passive income. The Hero shirked my polyamorous nature in favor of a single spouse, presumably so he'd have more time to go adventuring. If you want to be truly evil, you can attempt to romance everyone in a town and absolutely ruin all their collective lives. Fable has plenty of stats to inform how many spouses you have, what your sexuality is, how many times you've been divorced, and even how many times you've, ah, gone to bed with other people. For one, you can romance almost anyone in Fable's world you can flirt with all the men, women, and people of Fable wherever you go, have people fall in love with you, and marry them. It's the ways in which you can control that destiny where Fable's magic lies. ![]() Instead, Fable asks not that you role-play as a character of your creation but instead control the destiny of a nameless Hero inexplicably involved in the fate of the entire world. You're also never confronted with an endless array of vague, questionably meaningful decisions. Sure, you can alter his hair, get tattoos, and change his body type through rigorous exercise or excessive eating, but you're never expected to put yourself into the world of Fable. ![]() There's no character creator here, not even as much as a gender slider or a way to choose your name the Hero is who he is, and that's all there is to it. In this way, Fable may confuse players used to more recent RPGs. To this end, every major decision in Fable is very black and white - you either choose the good path or the bad path, and the consequences of each choice are fairly obvious. As a part of the Guild, you explore the world, taking on quests for various people, establishing a name for yourself as either an evil plight on the land or a pure-hearted savior. The story of Fable is a simple one: you're the Hero, orphaned at a young age by a brutal bandit raid and raised to be a powerful, productive member of the Guild. My Hero bought a quaint home in Bowerstone, where he lives with his lovely wife. ![]()

11/25/2023 0 Comments Best kindle 2022![]() ![]() If you try to upload a MOBI file for a reflowable ebook, you’ll be stopped dead in your tracks. MOBI is still accepted, by Amazon, in certain special cases-those being for what are called Print Replica files (for example, heavy photography books or illustrated children’s books) where the placement of text and images is absolutely crucial and cannot be altered or “reflowed” as text does in regular eBooks when you change font size or screen size or rotate the device. But the process that used to intake a MOBI file, perform nominal conversions or changes to it and spit out a file that was optimized for the myriad Kindle devices, no longer exists, at least, not for typical, everyday reflowable eBook files (your typical novel, memoir, self-help book, etc.) Today, if you want to upload a reflowable eBook, you need ePUB format, not MOBI. This does not mean that you can’t upload a Word file, still you can. The bottom line is, as of midsummer 2021, the files that Amazon sells to its readers are, by and large, derived from the last-man-standing eBook format, which is ePUB. If you've Googled, you've likely seen all sorts of claims, ranging from some folks telling you that you can put an ePUB (directly) on a Kindle device, to the idea that using Word is the best "Kindle eBook format." MOBI format, which was, but no longer is, the preferred Kindle file format.ePUB: which stands for ePUBlication (clever, eh?), which is used by B&N, iBooks, Sony, KoboBooks, and Google, and,.Is the person asking to find out what file format they should upload to Amazon? Are they asking what's the best way to make a book for the Amazon-Kindle ecosystem? In 2010, those answers were easy. One of the questions that we are still asked, here in 2022, is, "what is the best eBook format for Kindle?” I'm not always sure what question I'm being asked. Not sure when, mind you, but hey! Why not, right? UPDATED 2022 article this article supersedes and replaces the article that was published in 2015, titled “What is the Best eBook Format for Kindle,” which is still here on our site-seems to me that retaining historic information and data may be useful someday. ![]() ![]() You can check out its source code on GitHub, connect with its community, or see some of the other projects built on the technology. Jitsi was acquired by Atlassian in 2015, but it remains an open source project under an Apache 2.0 license. Jitsi is written in Java and is compatible with WebRTC standards, and the service touts its low-latency due to passing audio and video directly to participants (rather than mixing them, as other solutions do). Android and iOS apps allow you to make and take Jitsi video conferences on the go, and you can host your own multi-user video-conference service by installing Jitsi Videobridge on your server.

Jitsi's web conferencing solution stands out for its extreme ease of use: It runs directly in the browser with no download necessary, and no registration required. But much of that software is proprietary.įortunately, there are a some excellent open source video-conferencing solutions that can replicate the features of Skype, Zoom, Google Hangouts, and similar applications. Nowadays, your smartphone's video camera puts web conferencing in the palm of your hand anywhere you have a robust cellular or WiFi connection and the right software. The cost and complexity of video conferencing decreased rapidly, as nearly anyone with a webcam, a speedy internet connection, and inexpensive software could communicate with colleagues, friends, family members, even complete strangers, right from their home or office PC. That all started changing by the mid-2000s, as webcams became mainstream computer equipment and Skype and related services hit the market. Conference calls were arranged through third-party vendors, and video conferences required dedicated rooms with expensive equipment at every endpoint. If you've been a working adult for more than a decade, you probably remember the high cost and complexity of doing audio- and video conferences.

The easiest way to begin is to take each number in turn and scan the rows and columns to find cells where that number is missing: you will quickly be able to start putting numbers into cells.

To solve Sudoku puzzles you will need every ounce of logic that you can muster. In fact any set of nine distinct symbols – letters, colours, pictures – could be used. Also, contrary to popular opinion, it is not a number puzzle. The reality of solving a Sudoku puzzle grid can stretch the mind of even the most logical amongst us. The rules are deceptively simple: each row, column and 3x3 box of cells must contain each of the numbers 1 to 9. ![]() 11/25/2023 0 Comments Pa poker stars![]() ![]() Ever since I withdrew those winnings I've been having issues with my account almost every time I logged in. I recently cashed out around $1,300 that I won using $10 freeplay that I won from the daily rewards boxes. Once I logged out on that device and back in on my mobile my account was fine and everything was accessible. I even went as far as booting the app in safemode so that the only processes running were my wifi switch and the PokerStars app yet still couldn't verify my location! I only ever ran into this 1 other time in the 3-4 years I've been playing on PokerStars and it was on a tablet that I do have a VPN running for my cryptocurrency trading.

The only other place I can play is America's Cardroom. I can try contacting support tomorrow and maybe I will get someone else who is more willing to troubleshoot my problem. This happened immediately after they made some repairs/changes to their servers when the site was down. I told them that I tried that too and the same thing happend- I was told to try logging into wifi somewhere else. I contacted support and they told me to use wifi and not cellular data. I have also tried at work at which there are plenty of wifi signals around, and I even tried logging in with wifi and playing with the same result. It used to try for about 1 minute before it did that and if I had a poor signal I could move to a better signal.

In India, a money order is a service provided by the Indian Postal Service. Because of provisions within the USA PATRIOT Act and the Bank Secrecy Act, money orders have far more regulatory processing requirements than personal cheques, cashier's cheques, or certified cheques. Money orders have limited acceptance in the insurance and brokerage industry because of concerns over money laundering. The amount is printed by machine or checkwriter on both portions, and similar documentation, either as a third hard copy or in electronic form and retained at the issuer and agent locations. Money orders typically consist of two portions: the negotiable cheque for remittance to the payee (the receiver), and a receipt or stub that the customer retains for record. The main difference is that money orders are usually limited in maximum face value to some specified figure (for example, the United States Postal Service limits domestic postal money orders to US$1,000.00 as of August 2017 ) while certified cheques are not. ![]() In this way it is similar to a certified cheque. Usage Ī money order is purchased for the amount desired. This drawback was likely the primary incentive for establishment of the Postal Order System on 1 January 1881. The only draw-back was the need to send an advance to the paying post office before payment could be tendered to the recipient of the order. Fees were further reduced and usage increased further, making the money order system reasonably profitable. The Post Office noted the success and profitability, and it took over the system in 1838. ![]() Around 1836 it was sold to another private firm which lowered the fees, significantly increasing the popularity and usage of the system.

She is best known for playing Mi Lan in In the Heat of the Sun (1994), Danzhu in Red River Valley (1997), Angel in Lover's Grief over the Yellow River (1999) and Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang in the television series Xiaozhuang Epic (2003). The only thing unsatisfactory is that such good hint made by this movie is in a very subtle way of describing the past, not direct enough, but it is still good enough.Ning Jing ( Chinese: 宁静 born April 27, 1972) is a Chinese actress and singer. This movie provided a doze of reality that Chinese society really needs in the current heat of traditional culture resurgence in which everything is accepted blindly, instead of only inheriting the good aspect and riding of the bad aspect. The second one is the abandoned female babies (in addition to abortion) because of the needs of having sons to carry on the family names. The other bad results of the combination of the two types of dross of the traditional Confucian teaching reappeared in China during the traditional Chinese culture resurgence when personal wealth increased significantly in the rapid economic expansion of China: One of the two is the widespread adultery: men keep mistresses because under the traditional Confucian teaching, such unequal treatment of genders was tolerated and encouraged in the form of concubinage, which is illegal in China, so men resorts to the practice of keeping mistresses. Ironically, the ethnic minorities which were considered barbarian by Confucianism such as Tibetans shown here did not have the widespread of such practice and this is why potential victims escape to the area where minorities resides. Such brutal practice existed through out the Chinese history for thousands of years and it was not until the establishment of the Chinese Republic did such practice was finally banned by law, but due to the weak control of the Nationalist government, the practice was not completely eradicated after the communist revolution. When these two types of dross of the traditional culture combined, one of the deadly result was the extreme measures people would resort to: human sacrifice in the religious ceremonial rituals to pay one's respect to the dead/ancestors/authorities/heaven/earth etc., just like the movie depicted. According to the traditional Confucian teachings, in addition to the dead and ancestors, the same extravagant ceremonial rituals to show respect also applies to the emperors, head of the family or other authority figures. ![]() The second is the extravagant ceremonial rituals to pay the respect to the dead and your ancestors in a fanatical religious way to show how dedicated you are and what a good offspring you are. What is important in this movie is that it exposed the not-so-favorite side, or more precisely, the dark and nasty side of the Chinese traditional culture: first, the gender discrimination against females in the traditional Confucian teaching. Although the story itself depicted in the movie is fictitious, similar events in real life did happen, but the significance of this movie is often missed by the audience if they don't have a clear knowledge of Chinese history and traditional culture. The literal translation of the title of this film is: Red River Valley. ![]() |
