I knew I wanted a semi-hollow maple body with 24.75 scale on a mahogany neck with quality fingerboard and even frets. I never before played or even considered buying a PRS guitar, although I always digged the idea of a guitar body design that had both Fender and Gibson influence. Terrible tarnishing start appearing fast on the nickel hardware.Īlthough I loved it I decided it was just too much value to hang out of home, and was a bit disapointed with some quirks on the finish, a lot of cracking on the pots and noisy/faulty neck pickup, so I decided to sell it and re-invest on a new mid-priced guitar that was as well constructed but didn't cost + 2000€, something like a used Ibanez JSM100 (I previously had the JSM10 and loved it).Tiny workmanship flaws in fingerboard, binding, headstock.Volume pot developed severe cracking very fast.Didn't love the pickups (too hot and compressed).Played very well, great action, great intonation, some minor buzzes.Most beautiful guitar I ever laid my eyes upon, stunning figured top and back, amazing gloss nitro finish.Before this I made the crazy move and bought a brand new 2021 Figured Gibson ES-335, a 3300€ guitar which I later sold, it featured: This is the most versatile SE instrument in the Series nearly twenty-year history.īefore talking about the PRS let me just do a quick intro that may inspire you to save some money. ![]() When using the magnetic output jack in isolation, the piezo battery is bypassed completely, acting as a failsafe (in this scenario, the magnetic pickups still work even if the piezo battery has run out of juice). Alternatively, players can plug into the jacks separately, so the guitar can run magnetic pickups into an amp and run the piezo through an acoustic amp or DI into the soundboard. Players can plug into the “Mix/Piezo” jack and use the individual volume controls to blend the 58/15 “S” pickups with the piezo’s acoustic tones. The instrument is designed with two discrete volume controls (magnetics and piezo) and output jacks (mix/piezo and magnetics). Now boasting a newly-designed LR Baggs/PRS Piezo system, the SE Hollowbody II Piezo provides musicians with the versatility of wielding both acoustic and electric tones in one instrument. The 58/15 “S” pickups deliver clarity and balance that sound big and musical in a hollowbody platform. Constructed with a maple back and top with mahogany sides, the SE Hollowbody II Piezo offers a light shimmer and snap in an attractive package. Includes hardshell case.The SE Hollowbody II Piezo combines the balanced, clear, resonant tone of a hollowbody instrument with the power and stability of a solid-body electric guitar. By utilizing the separate blend control, the tone of the Hollowbody II’s 58/15 LT pickups can also be combined with acoustic sounds through a single output. ![]() There are two output jacks on the Hollowbody II, allowing guitarists to plug into their favorite electric guitar or acoustic guitar amp or DI into a soundboard. ![]() The PRS/LR Baggs Piezo System comes standard, providing musicians with the versatility of wielding both acoustic and electric guitar tones in one instrument. The combination of the maple top and back with mahogany sides provides tonal clarity and extraordinary resonance. With brilliant acoustics and a vast array of tones, the Hollowbody II has been a constant favorite in our dynamic lineup of semi-hollow instruments. ![]() The (ACV) column of the statement will reflect the amount of your first check minus your deductible. The loss statement will reflect the replacement cost value (RCV), the depreciation, and the actual cash value (ACV) of your loss. Most home owner policies are replacement cost and will pay that amount even though the actual cost may exceed the adjusters estimate. The statement of loss will itemize your losses, and the estimated cost of repair for each. The adjuster will either leave you a statement of loss or you will receive it in the mail in a few days. In any case you are going to be liable for the amount of your deductible and no more. ![]() If there is any difference, it will be worked out with the insurance company and the contractor. ![]() Remember, this is only an estimate and actual costs may be different. The duty of an insurance adjuster is to give you an accurate accounting of everything that was damaged by the storm and a written estimate of what it will cost to put your property back to the condition it was in prior to the storm. This can streamline the process for you and help you get your projects completed even faster. If you feel more comfortable, have a contractor there when the adjuster comes. After you have made your inspection make sure you are home when the adjuster comes and call his attention to the things you have noted. Also inspect your vehicles, any storm that causes vehicle damage usually causes roof damage. The one place to look is at the end of downspouts, look for small pieces of roofing and granules. Roof damage is about the only thing that can’t be assessed from the ground, but just because the damage isn’t visible does not mean that it isn’t there, and extensive. Some of the things to inspect and to look for are dents in gutter, bent fins on the air conditioner, dented roof vents and pipe caps, dents in window wraps and facia, damaged lawn furniture and flower pots. You can even file your claim online.Īfter you make the call make a list of all the damage you have noticed. In most cases the company will have adjusters in the area anyway. Don’t be shy about calling your agent and telling them that you may have damage. ![]() What about the more intricate thought patterns, you ask? Well, that’s all up to our own interpretation, and Shouya’s, too, which is where we begin making mistakes, and where the majority of the problems our hero faces stems from. It isn’t too difficult to guess what her emotions are based on the way her eyes blaze or which way her mouth curves – up or down. And, for the most part, she is very expressive. That is all we can use to infer how she feels and what she thinks. The only thing he can see is her expressions and what she says through her hands. I think it is more because we see Shouko through Shouya’s eyes, and Shouya himself doesn’t know very much about her. Now, some people may complain that it is because Shouko is poorly developed as a character. ![]() We don’t learn much about Shouko due to his influence. However, since Shouya is the narrator of our story, he is also an unreliable one. His desire to better himself and help his mother (as well as Shouko, when he encounters her again later on) is commendable, and his ability to face the facts and stand his ground despite the shame and hatred he feels toward himself is nothing short of amazing. We watch him as he ruins his life, and we watch him try to build it back up again. This primarily unlikable child, Shouya, is the main character of this story, and this story is about his redemption as he transforms from a bully into a good human being. His behaviour toward Shouko and his sudden realization that what he has been doing is wrong is portrayed so masterfully as to be simply exceptional. The first part of Koe no Katachi is written so realistically that we can only feel hatred for Shouya as he goes through the motions of his existence. Still interested in this manga? Hopefully, you are. No, she’s an alien from the planet Nishimiya, and she doesn’t understand human speech. He yells in her ear, pours dirt on her, and tosses out her hearing aids, not thinking for a moment that she is just another human being. When he meets Nishimiya Shouko, a deaf girl who transfers into his elementary school, he does not treat her like a person – he treats her like a tool to alleviate his boredom. Shouya is a problem child, and this is made very clear from the very beginning of Koe no Katachi. ![]() He eggs his two best friends on into getting into the same sort of trouble that he does. What does he do? He jumps off of bridges. boring, living is boring, so he has to do something to cut through that cloud of drivel. You see, dear reader, Shouya is afraid of boredom. We’re first introduced to Shouya as a child, performing a “test of courage” with his friends. ![]() This series explores the detrimental consequences of bullying on both the bullied and the bullier, the language barrier and misunderstanding between deaf and hearing, as well as the difficult, yet beautiful road to redemption.If you were a bully, would you try to change who you were? If you were a victim of bullying, would you forgive your assailant? Koe no Katachi (literally translated “The Shape of Voice” in English) by Ooima Yoshitoki details the story of Ishida Shouya, and his growth from a savage terror in elementary school, concerned only with satisfying his own need for stimulation, to a young man with concern and empathy for those around him. Years later, he sets out to make amends with Nishimiya in the midst of his own pain. Ishida becomes the class’ scapegoat and is isolated from everyone all through elementary school and into high school. However, Ishida, and eventually the rest of the class, begin to mercilessly bully Nishimiya, until Ishida goes too far and Nishimiya transfers schools. Nishimiya, who is the only deaf student in her school, just wants to make friends with her new classmates. Shoya is a typical kid who does stupid stuff to impress his friends, including bullying the new girl, Shoko Nishimiya. From a young age, Ōima spent her days drawing and creating her own stories, which eventually led to her desire to become a mangaka, or manga creator. Ōima began working on A Silent Voice when she was only eighteen years old in order to support her family.Ī Silent Voice is a seven volume series following the life of Shoya Ishida. About the Author: Yoshitoki Ōima was born in Gifu Prefecture, Japan in 1989. They can tell you in French, say, that c’est la fin de l’article.Tense Troubles? Here are 6 Spanish Conjugation Apps to Help You Master Verbs Just ask Google Assistant on Android phones or Siri on an iPhone. Translation apps are extremely useful, but some of the time anyway, you can use your phone even more easily when you want to know how to say something in another language. Swipe or tap to select the appropriate text and tap Translate, which you may have to swipe to get to. It’s toward the bottom on the right when you hold the phone in vertical portrait mode or upper right when you hold it sideways horizontally. Tap the circled icon with horizontal lines inside open brackets. A yellow frame appears around detected text. If you have a supported model, launch the Camera app, and point it at what you want to translate. The feature is compatible with all iPhones dating to 2018’s Xr or Xs models. This isn’t done directly through the Apple Translate app but rather the Live Text feature added with iOS 15. On an iPhone, you can also translate signs and other text seen through the camera lens. Within the settings of the Google Translate app itself, you can choose to block offensive words or change pronunciation speeds, though any of these speed settings do not apply in Conversation mode. Enable the button next to Google Translate to turn on microphone access. Turn on microphone access. On iOS, open Settings, tap Privacy and then Microphone. You’ll also need to make sure in device settings that you give Google Translate permission to access the microphone on your phone. On Android, open Settings, and tap Privacy. And to help improve the service, Google may keep a transcription of a conversation for “a limited period of time.” Google also wants you to make sure you have consent from the people around you before you translate their words. Google points out that any audio you record for translation purposes will be transmitted to the company for processing. In Google Translate, you can see a translation on the screen or tap the speaker icon to hear it read aloud.

On the iPhone if you tap Camera inside Google Translate, recognized text in the original language is overwritten by the app. ![]() This can be handy not only while traveling, but also if a loved one, friend or someone you've hired is more comfortable speaking in their native language, but you're not fluent. While in this mode, you can also tap a Both button on the iPhone or an Auto button on Android to have the phone listen for both languages. When you tap Conversation, two people can speak in turn, each by pressing a microphone button and watching words appear in both languages. ![]() SV2 is often available cheap(er) via AppStore "Two Dollar Tuesdays" and some third party " lifetime deal" offers. For the quickest turnarounds on a Mac, I would recommend Super Vectorizer 2 (SV2), which is pretty fast, versatile in terms of all sort of vectorization and produces good results. etc.) is another workaround, though not offering the quickest turnarounds for bitmap to vector vectorization/tracing at all here.

On a quick test, PDF export looked usable to me. Here I praise Serif's courage not to implement everything they could be implementing. (As every so often with those Featuritis™ laden apps: I get tired of it quickly because I don't know where to start when there's an option for literally every aspect of the app, down to some obscure binary data compression formats in the document preferences. So I just copied the monolithic traced object over to Designer… and voilà, here are my shapes and nodes.ĭepending on the trace settings, it may need some minor cleaning but the result is not all that shabby. No idea how to actually expand the traced vector shapes, the Expand button is grayed out.

Got stuck while attempting to trace the PNG version of my logo (as in my avatar here).

Best Image Vectorizer for Mac with Affinity Designer.Some forum threads about tool based bitmap tracing/vectorization: I am asking how to do one specific function: Use Affinity software to convert a raster image into a vector image by using a built in tool with configurable options that works just like (or better than) the Image Trace tool in Adobe Illustrator.

But I don't feel great at doing layout stuff in Photoshop, and InDesign is really big and bulky to me, so a piece of software that is small and good at type and grids, and mixing linked objects in, would definitely be something I'd be interested in.Vectorization and autotracing software for Win + Macs: I love the idea of linking files and allowing the tools that most easily manipulate each of the file types edit them. It serves as a lower-cost alternative to Adobe Illustrator, which is currently the industry standard when it comes to vector design. I do think it would be cool if there were an "InDesign Lite." I find myself not feeling 100% comfortable in any of the tools when you start talking about mixing a lot of photos and illustration and doing layout. Affinity Designer is a vector design application developed by Serif Europe Ltd. However, especially with large-scale projects, InDesign files require a lot of different logistical points and people to touch and manipulate the documents to get them right, so more standardized software and processes are needed to support those initiatives. If you're creating a graphic that will end up as a PNG, JPG, or SVG, the website/PDF file/vendor doesn't really care if you made it in Photoshop, Illustrator, Sketch, or Affinity. With a lot of these illustration and design tools, the final version is agnostic toward the means that were used to create it. They include many usability enhancements to guides, layers, assets, warping, strokes, text and brushes, as well as some all-new features such as a Vector Flood Fill Tool in Affinity Designer and running headers in Affinity Publisher. That's going to be a tougher nut to crack, I think. ![]()

Tetris 99 Controlsĭespite its frantic, information-rich, battle royale format, Tetris 99 controls are still, mostly, classic Tetris controls. You don't necessarily need to clear multiple rows at once, clearing a single row will eliminate a row of incoming attack blocks. For example, clear two rows at once and you'll eliminate two blocks from the oncoming attack. To get rid of the attacking Garbage Blocks, you'll need to drop combos. Stacked squares first appear as solid yellow, then quickly turn red, then flash yellow, red and pink, which means the blocks are about to get added to your playfield, as gray rows. It's important to keep an eye on the gutter just to the left of your playfield, because that's where incoming Garbage Block attacks accumulate. ![]() Garbage Blocks stack up fast when other players are targeting you in "Tetris 99."
