![]() ![]() They offer the same clicky experience as well as a tactile bump but they’re heavier to actuate and have a longer pre travel, making them feel quite a bit heavier when in use.Ĭlear: This isn’t a very often used switch but it’s pretty much the heavier version of the Cherry brown. ![]() Green: This is a slightly heavier version of the Blue switches. They’re also quite a bit harder to press when compared to most other switches on this list, coming in at 60G. These have an actuation force of 45G.īlue: If you opt for Blues people will immediately notice that you’re using a mechanical keyboard, since these are very clicky. They offer a nice and tactile feedback and a very audible clicking sound whenever a key is actuated. ![]() It offers a nice tactile bump when it’s actuated but doesn’t make a lot of noise in the process. It’s a great ‘split the difference’ option between linear and clicky switches. They require an actuation force of 60g instead of the Reds 45g, which makes it so that there’s quite a bit more resistance.īrown: This is Cherry MX’s most widely used tactile switch. Black switches are basically heavier versions of the reds. It’s a quiet and light switch (45G actuation force) which is very easy to actuate, making it an often chosen option for gaming.īlack: Another linear option. Red: A linear switch, and still one of the most popular choices out there. They produce a lot of switches, but we’ll go over the most often used ones here. The company itself is even older than that, being founded by Walter Cherry in 1953. Cherry MXĬherry MX is one of the ‘OG’ gaming keyboard switch manufacturers, which makes sense since they’ve been producing keyboard switches since the early 1980’s. In this list we talk about the required actuation force (which basically means how hard you have to press the key for it to be registered), the actuation point (how far the key has to physically travel for it to activate) and the total travel distance (how far the key goes before bottoming out). For reviews on specific switches and keyboards you can always check our review section. Do note that this isn’t a review list: we’re merely trying to gather all the popular switches in one spot to help you decide on what you would want. For now we’ve got the most commonly used switches on here, but of course we’ll keep updating this article in the future. We’ll go over the most popular (gaming) switch manufacturers and briefly highlight what features they offer on their different switches. But that’s one of the beautiful things about mechanical keyboards: you can just go with what you prefer.īack when mechanical keyboards started getting popular in gaming there used to be only a handful of switch manufacturers, but nowadays there’s almost too many to list. Plenty of gamers really love their clicky switches so this really is a matter of preference. It is sometimes said that for gaming you’ll want linear switches (since they require less force to actuate) and for typing you’ll want tactile/clicky switches, but in practice this isn’t always the case. Tactile switches have a noticeable ‘bump’ when you press them, and clicky switches also have a bump, but come with an audible clicking sound. Linear switches have a consistent and smooth feeling when pressed, with no real bump or resistance when the key press registers. Generally speaking, there are three different types of switches. This, in itself, poses an advantage over regular rubber dome keyboards but the beauty of mechanical keyboards is that there’s a whole world of different keyboard switches out there. Mechanical keyboards, on the other hand, have a complete switch (made up out of the housing, stem, and spring on top of which the actual keycap is placed) per key which provides a much snappier, more precise, and overall more pleasant feeling typing sensation. Each time you press a key you depress the dome, causing the top of the dome to make contact with the circuitry on the bottom of the keyboard, which completes the circuit and thus registers a key has been pressed. The keys are then placed on top of those domes. Rubber dome keyboards work by putting a sheet of of rubber over the keyboard circuitry with a little dome (hence the name) over the space where each key is, with the inside of every dome being coated in conductive materials. Rubber dome keyboards (which is what most cheaper/consumer grade keyboards are) and mechanical keyboards. Let’s first clarify: there are two main ‘types’ of keyboard, generally speaking. This might sounds as if it’s something trivial: after all a key press is a key press, but it’s anything but trivial. When people are talking about mechanical keyboards they always mention the type of switches that the keyboard has. ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() The Washington Football Team appears to have dodged a major injury to star rookie pass rusher Chase Young.Ford has missed the last two games with a back injury. San Francisco 49ers Kyle Shanahan told reporters that injured defensive end Dee Ford is not going to play against the Eagles and the team plans to decide in the next few days whether or not to put him on short-term IR.The hope is that he'll return after the bye the following week. Rapoport added that Kirksey will miss the Packers' MNF matchup against the Falcons in Week 5. Green Bay Packers linebacker Christian Kirksey has a pec injury that, following the MRI, does not need surgery, Rapoport reported per an informed source.Moore (hamstring) on injured reserve and signed defensive tackles Ryan Glasgow and Corey Liuget get to their practice squad. Prosise from their practice squad, placed safety A.J. Thomas was abruptly released by the Ravens in August for detrimental conduct. He also noted that the team plans to bring in other safeties, along with Thomas, for a visit and tryout to give themselves a few options to examine. Houston is looking to check out where the former All-Pro is physically and mentally, Rapoport added. The Houston Texans are bringing in safety link-placeholder-12] [for a workout, Rapoport and Pelissero reported, per the transaction wire.Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Chris Harris suffered a foot injury in the team's loss to the Panthers on Sunday that is expected to keep him out at least a month and potentially 6 weeks, Rapoport reported.He would be on a play count after missing the past two games. Fangio said running back Phillip Lindsay (toe) is " trending in the right direction" to play Thursday versus the Jets.

Denver Broncos defensive tackle link-placeholder-3] has suffered a biceps tear and will miss the rest of the season, per Rapoport.The Baltimore Ravens placed cornerback Tavon Young on injured reserve and activated safety Jordan Richards has been activated to the 53-man roster.Pelissero also reported that no other members of the organization are ill, and there was no concern that Wylie's condition is COVID-related. He was later released after further evaluation. After being sent to the hospital to undergo a battery of tests, Wylie was determined to not have appendicitis, which the club initially believed he was dealing with, or any other serious conditions. Guard [Andrew Wylie was a late scratch after complaining of stomach pain shortly after arriving at the stadium around 6 p.m., Pelissero reported per an informed source. Receiver (concussion/neck) was activated for the game after previously being listed as questionable. Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid told reporters that defensive tackle link-placeholder-0] tweaked his groin near the end of the team's matchup against the Ravens on _Monday Night Football._ Rookie corner did not return to the game after sustaining a collarbone injury in the first half. ![]() ![]() Also it does not look Indian as much as African, which is even stranger.

![]() The author also finds that government effectiveness and the number of commercial banks were predictors of government policy response, while the full lockdown of countries and the overall digital adoption were not. Findings - The author finds that low- and lower-middle-income countries had significantly responded to the surged need for digital means of payment during the pandemic compared to the upper-middle-income and high-income countries. Design/methodology/approach - Using a logit model, this paper tests the impact of the level of income and GDP per capita, government effectiveness, digital adoption, number of commercial banks and the pandemic-related closure of business and stores due to full lockdowns on governments’ policy response regarding digital means of payments. Now that Quicken has more Mac functionality than Banktivity, budgeting that works, and Banktivity has gone to the subscription model I will go back to Quicken.Purpose - This paper aims to assess whether the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has encouraged governments to take actions towards fostering digital means of payments and financial transactions to stimulate economic activities and achieve higher financial inclusion. I bought Banktivity to have Mac based accounting and avoid Quickens subscription pricing. Further, budgeting relies on scheduled transactions and if the amount of a scheduled transaction changes, you have to create a new transaction (and keep the old one), otherwise your historical budgets will change. Bad design that could cause someone to easily overspend. ![]() For example if you budget $200 every other month but then spend $100 in a month that was originally budgeted for 0, the product does not include the $100 in the monthly expenses total. ![]() You are not allowed to have a monthly budget of $0. Budgeting is REALLY important for me and being able to review accurate results guide my spending. So I always had to be on the lookout for errors and create adjustment tranasctions that cause downstream reconciliation problems.īudgeting is a whole other case. The temporary fixes they gave me didn't work and they have never provided a fix. I have had five times when the accounts didn't total correctly and it was easily proven by totalling manually from the last reconciliation. Too bad they ruin it with poor sup-port and some bad design. This company has the basics of a good product. Just fix the program instead of letting this problem fester. This level of customer support from any company is disgusting. They are now switching to a subscription model so I might as well try the new improved Quicken and try not to think of the $70 and many many hours wasted on this turd. I have contacted customer support who told me to send screen shots and log files which I did, but got no response. So who are you going to vote for-Chase with millions of people using other banking software without problems or this little software company with limited resources and a history of buggy software? (Does anybody remember iWork from the same company?) There are other problems such as the impossibility of paying two credit cards that are issued by the same company-both payments get sent to one account and then you get a late fee and a ding to your credit score. They have said it's not their problem and to call Chase, I call Chase and they say it's not their problem. So I have to painstakingly check the Banktivity record against that of Chase and manually enter the missing transactions. I have had numerous interactions by e-mail and chat, sending log files and screen shots, with their vaunted customer support staff and this problem continues. However, IT DOES NOT RELIABLY DOWNLOAD BANKING TRANSACTIONS from Chase. I use this type of software to pay bills, flagging tax-related items as I pay them, and generating a simple report at tax time each year. ![]() Like many people I have been forced to check out alternatives to Quicken 2007 for Mac since its demise. ![]() Banktivity is a beautiful app with problems. ![]() ![]() ![]() They revealed that this show had been created with the aim to introduce a male idol debut project. In August 2017, JYPE announced their new reality TV show. In 2018, Felix and his group received the New Hallyu Rookie Award at the Soribada Best K-Music Awards.Īfter Felix was accepted as a trainee at JYP Entertainment (JYPE), he decided to relocate to South Korea. The group has since released three more EPs, several singles, and multiple music videos. After releasing their pre-debut extended play ‘Mixtape’ in January 2018, they made their official debut in March that year. They would later be brought back as Stray Kids ended up retaining all its nine original members in the final line-up. However, Felix and one other member of the group, Lee Know, were subsequently removed from the show. In October 2017, Stray Kids’ first single, titled ‘Hellevator,’ was released. Created by JYP Entertainment in order to launch a male idol debut project, the show quickly garnered public attention. He participated in the reality TV show, ‘Stray Kids,’ which premiered on Mnet in October 2017. He even attended high school in Sydney before moving to South Korea. His parents are Korean but he was born and raised in Australia. Known by the mononym Felix, he serves as their lead dancer and rapper.

MBTI Type: ESFJ (His previous results were ENFP -> ENFJ) ![]() ![]() ![]() Placebo, from the Latin "I please" can be potent medicine in that it can unlock the brain’s potential to restore health. And then there is the placebo effect, which is certainly part of echinacea’s mystique. I have no problem with this, because pills (that must release their compounds amidst hostile stomach acids) are less useful than tinctures that the body begins absorbing in the mouth. In one of the most recent studies, from the University of Wisconsin, taking echinacea in pill form had little if any impact on the common cold. It is my belief that the echinacea tincture revs up the immune system, keeping it at high alert, though hard science has failed to fully validate my way of thinking. ![]() After three weeks, I filter the echinacea tincture through a coffee filter and pour it into a dark bottle, kept in a cool cabinet.Īt our house, we start taking teaspoon doses of echinacea tincture straight or in warm tea whenever colds or other viruses get too close for comfort, then stop taking it when we and the people around us are well. After a good shake, the jar goes into a dark cabinet, where it is shaken daily. To make a tincture, I finely chop one-half cup of Echinacea roots and leaves, place it in a small jar, and cover it with 100-proof vodka. Then I scrub the knotty little roots and partially dry them, too. First I set aside a few nice leaves and dry them. When I have enough crowns to spare, I harvest two to three well-rooted plants and prepare a concentrated echinacea tincture. If you want to gather roots for use in medicinal preparations, you have an excellent reason to dig and divide your old-fashioned purple coneflowers in early fall. All coneflowers develop multiple crowns as the season progresses, and two-year-old plants in particular can be propagated by digging and dividing rooted crowns in either spring or fall. Many of the newer non-purple coneflowers are seed sterile, and nothing is known about their medicinal qualities, which are likely to differ from the species because they involve interspecies hybrids with E. Seeds must be started before January 25 if they are to bloom their first year. To get top germination, the breeder says to press seeds into damp seed starting mix and maintain at 65 to 70☏ (18 to 21☌) for 10 to 15 days, the time needed for germination. Seed of several new varieties that bloom in hot shades of yellow and orange can be quite pricey, for example the award-winning new ' Cheyenne Spirit' variety. How to Grow Echinacea in Your GardenĮchinacea is easily grown from seed started indoors in late winter, or you can start with purchased plants. Need cut flowers? When purple coneflower blossoms are gathered just as the drooping petals unfurl, they will last up to a week in a vase. You will get the best seed production by growing three plants together, which collectively produce enough flowers to put on an eye-catching show as well. When the protein-rich seeds ripen, they are eagerly gathered by finches and other seed-eating birds.Ī winter-hardy perennial, echinacea grows well in most climates when given a sunny, well-drained site. A 2006 study from the University of Saskatchewan showed that echinacea nectar contains glucose, fructose and sucrose – a pleasing mix of sugars to generalist pollinators like bees, butterflies and moths. ![]() Native to the Midwestern US, purple coneflower has a long history of use as a medicinal herb, and is an invaluable plant in beds designed to attract beneficial life forms. One of my favorites is Echinacea purpurea, commonly called purple coneflower in the nursery trade. ![]() I like to grow flowering herbs in the front row of my garden, so their colors and fragrances cannot be missed by people or pollinating insects. ![]() ![]() ![]() Let’s play around a little bit with encoding and decoding Base64 and then some of the little challenges that you’re going to run into. You’ll see it all the time whenever you’re doing web application, security assessments, looking at security parameters and tokens, and things of that nature. It allows you to convert things like binary and special character data into something that’s far less benign like upper lower case and numbers and that’s what we actually get whenever we’re utilizing Base64 as an encoding mechanism. This is why protocols like this exist or different encoding formats like this exist. In fact, we see this all the time, especially with attacks like SQL where semi-colons get interpreted and get executed. For example, if you’re looking at something like HTTP, transports a lot of text and if we start sending binary, we might get into trouble. Whenever you are transferring binary data or you’re transferring data with special characters, it can be encoded and it can be garbled, especially whenever you’re dealing with protocols that are designed predominantly for sending text. Now the reason why Base64 actually exists is kind of interesting. Now the reason why we’re talking about it is once again we have the BHIS Cyber Range for our customers and friends and this is just basically a video to walk people through some of the challenges that utilize Base64. My name is John Strand and in this video, we’re going to be talking about Base64 encoding and decoding. ![]() ![]() Thermal Control – Thermal transfer is a determinate of how comfortable a building feels.Control of air movement includes flow through the enclosure or through components of the building envelope itself, as well as into and out of interior spaces. Air Control – Controlling air flow is key to controlling energy consumption, ensuring indoor air quality, avoiding condensation and maintaining comfort.Each component must be addressed to prevent unwanted moisture from causing expensive damage. ![]() ![]() It impacts the building over your head (roof), under your feet (floor and foundation), and on your sides (walls and windows). Moisture presents a distinct danger to the overall integrity of a building. Moisture Control – The most important element of the building envelope is its ability to regulate the transfer of moisture.If you manage or maintain a residential complex built during this era on BC’s coast, RAC is proud to offer you fast and effective building envelope inspections for monitoring preventative and repair needs.The building envelope affects many aspects of a structure’s ability to provide a safe, healthy and comfortable environment for tenants: Substantial moisture leeks develop rapidly and can lead to swollen walls, damage to structural components and interior mold. Increased exposure caused by reduced overhangs and wall thickness causes seals on rooflines, doorways and windows to fail. Mimicking the design styles of California, these buildings have minimized overhangs, reduced wall thicknesses and are sometimes constructed with substandard materials. Condo towers are the most at risk, but a number of other residential and commercial buildings are also affected. Special Note on British Columbia High & Low Rise Residentialĭue to failures in oversight, changes in taste and a powerful real estate market boom, BC’s coastal region regularly sees massive failures in the building envelopes of residential complexes built from 1983-1998. RAC regularly inspects historic and antique buildings for signs of wear and potential further erosion of concrete, plaster and antique facades. Identifying separated sealants, cracked concrete, missing flashing, deteriorated trim and leaking membranes will help you to take the right steps forward in conserving the structural and aesthetic integrity of your building. Particularly if your structure has had reoccurring leaks, routine envelope inspections are important. Regular inspection of the building envelope can protect you from this risk. If left unnoticed, the cost of repairs increases dramatically. ![]() If issues with a building’s envelope are identified early on they can be remedied relatively inexpensively. In Northern or coastal climates, even small leaks in the building envelope can lead to huge problems. ![]() Exterior walls, foundations, doors, windows, roofs and eaves all play vital roles in averting moisture out of the walls. Building envelopes are essential for preventing moisture penetration. ![]() |
