9/1/2023 0 Comments Sidekick 3 hidden games![]() The team are known to have explored many level ideas during development, most of which did not make it past the design stage.Ĭommentary found in the Sonic Jam strategy guide reveals that the level order could have been even more different. There has been much speculation over the years about what these slots were reserved for (if anything) - possible candidates include Brenda Ross's "desert" and "winter" zones which were thought to be at least partially complete, or possibly Genocide City Zone before it was transformed into Metropolis Zone Act 3. Three slots in the game remain empty in all versions of Sonic 2 (save for the very early Nick Arcade prototype which is using the Sonic 1 level order). All empty slots are fundamentally broken, loading varying amounts of graphics data from Emerald Hill Zone (depending on the build). This order is mirrored (with empty slots cut out) by some prototype level select screens. Occupied by Genocide City Zone in prototypes. Palette and object/ring locations remain. Metropolis Zone covers two level slots as it has three Acts. The internal level order can be seen by using Pro Action Replay code (FFFE10:?00), substituting the question marks with the hexadecimal values for the level slots described in the table below and then attempting to enter any level (any number past 10 crashes the game). It gives some clues as to what the original progression looked like, and the differences are quite significant. Like its predecessor, Sonic 2 on the Mega Drive lays out its levels in a different order internally to how the player sees them when playing through the game. Sounds like a slightly shorter version of Mystic Cave Zone's bridges stopping in place ( $69). Sounds not used anywhere in the game can be heard in the sound test, some of which are leftovers from the original Sonic the Hedgehog. This has been established to be the music meant for Hidden Palace Zone. In the sound test, song $10 is a unused song. The final version of Hill Top Zone is also not suited to 2-player thanks to some level gimmicks, such as its inside lava sections these make it impossible to back-track to the beginning of the stage by creating dead-ends, so if the two players were at opposite ends, the slower player would in theory get stuck.ĭue to the way scrolling is handled in Oil Ocean Zone, part of the background is never seen. However, the parallax effect for the clouds is missing and some parts are corrupted, and while sharing data with Emerald Hill Zone means the foreground also renders correctly, objects are not optimised, meaning the experience is still noticeably buggy. Hill Top Zone's background is partially optimised for 2-player mode the background scrolls independently for both players, which cannot be said for other 1-player only levels. It is theorised that this may be a leftover from an early version of the level, as with the final art the seam is quite obvious. As the code executes, the effect is reverted, so cannot be not seen without hacking. Its object ID is $17.Ĭode exists to scroll part of the top tree background layer at a different rate, giving the impression it is closer to the camera. Unfortunately, the graphics have been deleted, but the coding is intact. ![]() The spinning log spikes from Sonic the Hedgehog's Green Hill Zone. Placing one with a subtype greater than 17 will spawn garbage objects on the right. Its height is equal to 16*(lower five bits of subtype)+16 pixels. Again, the graphics no longer exist in the ROM. The waterfall object from Hidden Palace Zone, which is also left over. It's a simple solid indestructible object and its coding hasn't changed since the Nick Arcade prototype. The graphics are long gone, but the code is still there. The emerald-shaped object that was used in Hidden Palace Zone to block off a tube. However, only those that are 6 segments long are used (subtypes 05 and 15), leaving all other subtypes unused.Īlthough very similar to the small platforms used in Metropolis Zone, this platform behaves strangely, usually rising at an angle. The blue bubble snakes in Chemical Plant Zone have many subtypes that define their movement pattern ( 00- 0F for jumping back and forth, 10- 1F for jumping between the floor and ceiling) and their length, which can be any number of segments between 1 and 16. The upper four bits can be used to offset when it starts to rise in the air. ![]() The amount of time it floats in the air is 128*(lower four bits of subtype) frames. Every 1024 frames, it will slowly rise up for 128 frames, float in the air, then come back down 128 frames later. To see it, a monitor's subtype should be set to 00.Ī hovering platform for Chemical Plant Zone that has been around since the Nick Arcade prototype. A static or blank monitor which harms the player when broken.

Ever since its live debut on the Big Time Rush in Concert tour, the band made a tradition of choosing a female audience member to bring up on stage during the song. "Worldwide" is one of Big Time Rush's most well-known and popular songs. According to James Maslow, the song is extremely difficult to perform live, and they typically sing in a different key than in the studio version. The vocal key of the song is notably high throughout the entirety of the song. Though they are well-known and famous, the narrator assures their partner that they will only ever think of them. Lyrically, "Worldwide" is written from the perspective of a lover who is traveling the world and misses their partner. The song was one of eight that the band recorded in a week. īIG TIME RUSH in the studio recording WORLDWIDE with producer Time Rush recorded the vocals for "Worldwide" with producer Chris Rojas at Westlake Recording Studios on May 25, 2010. ![]() However, producer Chris Rojas mentioned he had an opportunity with Nickelodeon and Columbia Records for Big Time Rush, and they offered it to the band to record.

And being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune, none of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation, or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. And, of course, stability isn’t nearly so spectacular as instability. “Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensations for misery. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. ![]() “Words can be like X-rays if you use them properly - they’ll go through anything.

People are produced in factories, grouped into social classes, and conditioned to love their existence - and spend as much money as they can. Instead, he painted a future in which “everyone is happy now,” mostly thanks to drugs and frequent, non-committal sex.

How much is the average electric bill for an apartment? You are generally responsible for paying electricity, gas, and any internet, cable, or other bills. In most apartments, landlords typically cover water, sewer, and garbage, which is usually lumped into your monthly rent. What utility costs are usually covered by the landlord? Number of Occupants : Additional people typically increase utilities usage across the board, especially electric.A smaller apartment will help ease utility usage. Apartment Size : The larger the space, the more area to heat, clean, and cool, which increases your monthly expense.Similarly, in hotter regions like New Orleans, LA, the need for air conditioning is greater, which means higher electric bills in the summer.Ĭonsider the following factors when adding up your total monthly costs: For example, in cities like Minneapolis, MN, and Denver, CO, electric bills increase in the winter because people use more energy to heat their homes. The size of the residence, location, utility providers, and usage habits all contribute to the monthly utility bill. So whether you live in warm San Diego, CA, or rent an apartment in snowy Buffalo, NY, these utility tips are for you. Other costs that may be considered utilities are phone plans, cable, internet, and streaming services. Because utilities are typically the tenant’s responsibility, it’s important to add them to the monthly rental amount to get the total financial picture.ĭepending on your building, possible monthly costs to keep track of are gas, electricity, water, garbage collection, and recycling.

When you pay ETH gas fees, the base fee is burned while the remaining fee (the tip) goes to network validators. EIP-1559 (an Ethereum Improvement Proposal) introduced burning ETH. What was once an inflationary cryptocurrency is now closer to a stable supply.īut there’s another factor at play that affects ETH supply. 2022’s change to proof-of-stake as the way to validate transactions changed the supply dynamics of ETH. Prior to 2022, ETH was mined in a similar way to Bitcoin, using proof-of-work, a process that created ever-growing piles of ETH. Like most markets, pricing is driven by supply and demand. Since its launch, ETH has made millionaires and billionaires - and broken more than a few hearts (and wallets) as well.

Behind the HTML and shiny buttons, there’s an app running on a blockchain - and it’s probably running on Ethereum or a Layer 2 network. We see a website that does cool crypto stuff. Those smart contracts are what’s running under the hood of today’s dApps, including Aave, Uniswap, and more. Think of smart contracts like switches –- or, if you’ve ever done BASIC computer programming, like if-then statements. In the white paper, Vitalik introduces the idea of smart contracts, which he describes as boxes that are only unlocked if certain conditions are met. But the Ethereum network envisioned in the white paper would open up a new world of possibility beyond just payments from person A to person B - and it has. The network runs on Ether (ETH), which is the cryptocurrency you use to pay for using the network. Here’s the TL DR: The Ethereum network was built to run decentralized applications (dApps), programs that run on a network of thousands of computers rather than on servers controlled by a single person, organization, or government. The Ethereum white paper, while a tough read, explains the reason for Ethereum in contrast to the existing crypto networks. The problem: they just don’t support enough programming commands. They were (and still are) effective as digital ledgers and payment rails. We already had Bitcoin, so why did we need Ethereum? Early crypto networks like Bitcoin and Litecoin offer peer-to-peer transactions without a bank in the middle.

Some blades may be replaceable when the old one gets dull. Kuhn Rikon is a brand recommended by many reviewers, even though it is not dishwasher safe because of the carbon blade, and you will have to put up with some rust build-up on the blade because of that. Carbon steel blades can also rust or react if exposed to acidic food. Note that carbon steel blade peelers are likely not dishwasher safe, and will need to be hand washed and then dried thoroughly immediately to prevent rust build-up. Some people say for maximum sharpness retention, look for carbon steel or stainless steel blades. The blade on a peeler needs to be sharp, especially when you are facing a large quantity of produce.īetter ones will remain sharp for years. Some left-handed people say they have worked with right-handed peelers for so long now that they wouldn’t know how to work with a left-handed one even when presented with one. Accessed August 2020 at įor left-handed people, the potato eye-gouger (if there is one) may not be on a convenient side - they may have to be constantly flipping the peeler around to use it. How Do Lefties Peel Vegetables? 5 February 2010. ![]() Yee says the main reason a manufacturer wouldn’t do this is to avoid extra costs: If a company uses grinding equipment that requires the blades to be taken out and flipped to hit both sides, it will just make a peeler one-sided to save time and money.” Webber, Roxanne. “The people we spoke to from Kuhn Rikon, OXO, and DKB all told us they sharpen both sides of their blades, creating ambidextrous peelers. Some fixed blades may have dual blades so they can be used from the left or right. Others offer the same user experience whether held in the left or right hand.Īs for the blades, the issue seems to be largely with fixed blades, as swivelling blades can pivet to suit your angle. The handles of some peelers may be optimized really just for right-handed comfort. There are three issues with left-handed people using peelers designed for right-handed people: comfort, efficiency, and safety. One older model, the Lancashire peeler, attempts to address the issue with string wound around the handle. Some people look for ribbed surfaces for extra good grip, so that if your hands are wet, they won’t slip on it. Rubber-coated peeler handles can provide extra comfort. Some handles can be uncomfortable to hold for long periods. The handle can be metal, plastic or wood. Household peelers are usually a metal (or ceramic) blade attached to a handle. Expect to replace a peeler every so often depending on the quality of the blade to start with, and how often you use it.įor safety reasons, it’s a good idea to always wash produce first before taking a peeler to it: the act of peeling can drive any surface contamination into the flesh of the produce. Most household peelers are essentially disposable items with a limited lifespan because the blade will eventually grow dull and make the peeler less-effective, or more work to use than it’s worth. Some models are advertised as being good for julienne, but some cooks who have tried them say they’ll stick with a mandoline. Some people counter, though, that peelers are better at making chunks of citrus skin than they are a fine zest. Manufacturers of peelers like to point out that the devices can be used for purposes other than peeling, such as making cheese shavings or chocolate curls, or zesting citrus fruits. Some if not most designs will have an ‘eye gouger’ attached to them, used to dig blemishes out of produce, and in particular eyes out of a potato. In practice, they function similarly: You can both whittle away from yourself and pare toward yourself.” America’s Test Kitchen. On “straight” peelers, the blade extends directly out from the handle “Y” peelers look like wishbones, with a blade running perpendicular to the handle. ![]() “Most models can be classified in one of two categories based on the orientation of the blade to the handle. There are many different designs, but for home use, almost all designs are handheld, and they can be broken down into two main categories: straight, and Y-shaped. 8/31/2023 0 Comments Run a python script from terminal![]() The IPython interpreter is like the Python interpreter, but with superpowers.
