11/12/2023 0 Comments Noise isolator for screaming![]() Well-soundproofed homes provide a certain serenity. ![]() This is done in order to keep the noise that they make down to a minimum so as to not disturb the lives of others living in the vicinity. Musicians, vloggers, and others whose profession requires a recording space may take their neighbours into consideration and soundproof their home, or a room at the very least. Whether it is an obscenely loud TV or non-stop late night parties, they can seriously affect your quality of life by disturbing your sleeping patterns and denying your mind the opportunity to recuperate from a full day of people demanding your attention. Inconsiderate and noisy neighbours can be a nightmare. The sound of engines, screeching tires, horns, sirens, and shouting are all commonplace and can easily disrupt your sleep or concentration. If you live in a noisy area with a lot of road and foot traffic, then you know how disrupting street noise can be. There are many reasons why people decide to soundproof their homes, but the most common is to stop noise from getting in/out and to increase the value of the property. Most common reasons people soundproof their homes Soundproofing works by adding extra obstacles which sound waves must travel through, reducing the energy of each wave until it is inaudible or dampened to such an extent that it is barely audible. Unlike light, sound waves travel through most objects with relative ease, which is why you can still hear traffic noise despite having your windows closed. This energy travels out from the source in waves, causing the air and any objects they come into contact with to also vibrate with the same frequency. At its most basic, a sound is the energy produced when something vibrates. To answer this, we must first understand what sound is and how it operates.

11/12/2023 0 Comments Firefox vs chrome vs edge![]() Firefox has its own UI which scrolls smoothly and performs quite well. If there's an extension on Chrome that you like, chances are it's been developed for Firefox (similar to how apps are developed for both Android and iOS) or vice-versa. ![]() Firefoxįirefox mirrors the features of the others, and has a lot of similar extensions that Chrome has. While most of their products are solid and fine for most, you may find that you like certain aspects of competitive products better. Microsoft wants to integrate their products together into one universal system, which is great in theory. Edge is the default browser in Windows 10 (you can change this). Beyond the basic elements you'd expect from a browser, there is the built-in ability to essentially draw on any website, save that screen shot, and export it to One Note or share it online directly. The UI is more rectilinear (which I prefer) and is quite simple. Microsoft Edge has a very similar vibe with a little different layout. Extensions like this are one of the reasons Chrome is so popular. ![]() For instance: with the Wolfram|Alpha extension, just type = before your search and it will do a Wolfram|Alpha search. What you type in the search bar, or omnibox will do a search on your set default search engine or other sites based on what you type before it. Chrome was given an update to follow their design standard, Material Design (at least the icons). To the left of the search bar, you've got your standard back and forward buttons as well as refresh with an optional home button. Extensions are put to the side of the address bar and can be collapsed under the "more" menu in the top right of the browser. You've got at the top your tabs, address bar, and optional bookmarks. Your toolbar is minimal, to give you more room to view the website, which is the whole point of a web browser. All four browsers have plugins/addons/extensions and the popular ones are probably supported on all platforms.Īll modern browsers will have an address bar, search bar (some combined), tabs (and a new tab screen), bookmarks, and unique elements for that browser. While they share many aspects of each other, they have small distinctions that could possibly (though I suggest to not let it) make or break your browser decision.Įxtensions are a necessity for browsers, which is why it might be harder to get behind some of the lesser-known browsers (they might not have the extension you want). Before we get into the nitty-gritty tech specs, let's consider the layout and design of each browser. 11/12/2023 0 Comments Iphone x civilization v imageIt's complex, but it's also extremely fun and addictive when you’re in the grips of a sprawling international rivalry between multiple nations. Beyond that, you have to worry about little details like traders, envoys, "Great People," and building monuments like the Oracle at Delphi. Alternatively, if you want a greater challenge, you can found a culture everyone wants to be a part of. You can still brute-force your way to victory with the military, but you can also guide your people from the ancient period to the Space Age by starting and spreading a popular religion. Never, though, has a Civilization game come packed with so many features at launch as Civilization VI, to the point where it's a little intimidating if you're brand-new to the series. This is Civilization VI in (almost) its full glory, so to get an idea of why that’s so exciting you should read our original review of the PC version, which still holds up well a little over a year later.Suffice it to say that Civilization is the quintessential turn-based "4X" strategy series – a genre that involves "Exploring, Expanding, Exploiting, and Exterminating," traditionally through military victory. It's very close to the PC game in look and feel, but designed smartly enough that it's easy to believe it was always meant for a tablet.

The requirements for “shipboard machinery, equipment, systems and structures”-including the requirements for test machines-are defined in MIL-S-901D.Ī floating shock platform is used for oversized products. With these shock machines, a pendulum hammer is driven into the stationary table a product is mounted to. Lightweight and medium-weight shock testing machines were first developed by the United States Navy. The pulse shape, duration, and amplitude of a mechanical shock machine can be changed by adjusting the speed of the machine’s movement or the impact of the movement on the product. ![]() Examples of mechanical shock machines are drop-shock machines, lightweight shock machines, medium-weight shock machines, a Hopkinson bar, and other mechanical systems designed to excite a transient pulse of a defined shape into a product. “Mechanical shock machine” is a generic title for a system without a closed-loop controller that excites the table a product is mounted to. For a more in-depth understanding of shock testing, let’s look at several types of shock machines. As we discussed in the previous lesson, the type of machine used to generate classical shock pulses is determined by four factors: the mass of the product being tested, the desired amplitude, the pulse duration, and the pulse shape. 11/12/2023 0 Comments Golf vacation packages![]() Whether you’re looking to stay and play at one destination or take in as much of the Sunshine State as you can during your trip, you’ll find some incredible options for golf in Florida right here. It’s not hard to see why the majority of the PGA TOUR’s players base themselves here, with Florida’s unbelievable golfing climate and easy accessibility, not only throughout North America but the wider world, thanks to its bustling international airport hubs in Orlando, Jacksonville, Miami, and Tampa. PGA TOUR venues can be found throughout Florida, with Innisbrook Resort’s Copperhead Course hosting the Valspar Championship each year, Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club having its own PGA TOUR event annually, and PGA National Resort also being the yearly destination of The Honda Classic. The Stadium Course is often quoted as Pete Dye’s masterpiece – and we’re inclined to agree. Save 100 on your flight Price was 2,347, price is now 1,590 per person.

Fairmont Mayakoba Riviera Maya - All Inclusive. Among its huge array, it boasts the world-famous TPC Sawgrass and its Stadium Course, host of THE PLAYERS each year. Overall our stay at the Fairmont in Mayakoba was pretty great and again the food was spectacular.Florida golf courses truly are nothing short of spectacular. However, the property did compensate us by giving us one night free, which I thought was very fair. There’s also the Winter Unlimited Special where you play unlimited golf with a cart and range balls, starting at 95/ per person per day. Two Days or More starting at 75/day with unlimited range balls and cart. They also give kickbacks to the hotel, which in my opinion is disgusting.Īnother issue unfortunately was our room, there was at least four different issues that we had to address over the week’s stay. There are a couple really affordable winter golf packages offered here. So, if you’re coming from the Fairmont, be ready to pay a huge amount. Hospiten also gives estimates on the price of your visit based on where you’re staying. The more you plan to play, the better it is to look for a package deal. These stay-and-play golf locations are probably going to come as a package, and they can help you save some money on greens fees. They tried to charge us $27,000 for a simple surgical procedure that costs $5000 in the US with no insurance. There are many high-end resorts in the Scottsdale area where you can find stay-and-play type golf packages. Warning - don’t visit the doctor at the facility, it is expensive and they sent us to Hospiten - which is the biggest scam hospital ever. We stayed for our 20th Anniversary, they gave us an upgrade from the main building to a casita, but for an anniversary of that caliber, I would have expected a better location.

Thor's weapons can't scratch them, for instance. According to the commentary track on the Endgame Blu-Ray, Thanos' sword comes from somewhere off-world, making it stronger than vibranium and quite a number of other things as well. ![]() The shield is damaged only by other objects made of vibranium, such as Black Panther's claws, which damages it during the events of Captain America: Civil War. The shield is made of vibranium, which is billed as the strongest metal on Earth. Visually, it helps to punctuate Steve Rogers' seeming last stand just before the cavalry arrives. The key moment comes in Endgame's vaunted climax when the Double-Edged Sword damages Captain America's shield. Marvel fans have different theories, of course, and the sword's devastating effects provide a comparative basis for Marvel's other super metals. The real mystery starts with the metal the sword is composed of, which remains undefined as of this writing. The Double-Edged Sword is intended as a more menacing homage to one of the character's goofier moments. The comic line was based on Spider-Man's appearances on the kids' educational TV show The Electric Company at the time and, as such, was aimed at younger readers. Thanos attacks Hellcat in the vehicle while using it for the Cosmic Cube she's carrying. Co-creator Jim Starlin spoke to Digital Spy about it during Endgame's 2019 release, indicating that it was inspired by the infamous "Thanos-Copter" from Spidey Super Stories #39 (Nick Sullivan, Michael Siporin, Jim Salicrup, Win Mortimer and Mike Esposito). The weapon doesn't exist in the comics, though it has a very strange comic-book origin. ![]() In a flashback scene from Avengers: Infinity War, he gives a similar twin-bladed knife to a young Gamora, whom he's just orphaned. The two blades sit on either end of the handle, perfectly balanced to match his twisted scheme to murder half of all life. It's possible that Thanos never gives it a name in canon, and it's hard to imagine mistaking it for anyone else's weapon. The MCU fan wiki refers to it as "The Double-Edged Sword," as does the marketing material surrounding it. 11/11/2023 0 Comments Houzz bathroom shower![]() That said, one in 10 are turning to green and blue as accent colours in their bathrooms (10%, each).

Some homeowners are also adding features common to ageing-in-place such as seats and grab bars (9% and 8%, respectively), while others opt for digital shower controls (6%).
