I just had to make sure it sounded good with the band.” ![]() I know the material like the back of my hand. The night is a bit of a blur in his head, but he thinks it took place in Idaho. It’s such an inspiring city for songwriters.”Ībout a year into his Nashville journey, Cheap Trick asked him to play piano at a semi-acoustic charity gig, after he’d watched countless shows over the years from the wings. In that sense, it hardened me as a musician, but I also learned a lot. “If you want to go play the bars off Broadway, it’s like, ‘Get in line’ - because there’s thousands of other musicians that want to do the same thing you’re doing. “There’s a lot of healthy competition in Nashville for live music,” he says. He only knew two people in the entire city. In 2015, once he felt he had gained enough knowledge to write and record music on his own, he moved to Nashville to find work as a songwriter and performer. “I enjoyed sports, but I was usually in my room playing along to CDs and records that my dad had in his collection.”Īfter high school, he took classes at Florida State, the Berklee College of Music, and Full Sail University. “I was an introverted music nerd at a pretty early age,” he says. ![]() That quickly led to guitar, drums, piano, and even ukulele. He grew up in a house packed with instruments, and was initially drawn to the bass since he found it easy to pick out a single note and play, rather than learning chords. People pay to come and see my dad, as opposed to him merely just liking to sing around the house.’” “When I was about six I realized, ‘Oh, this isn’t normal. “He used to come into school to play guitar and talk to the kids about touring,” he says. Growing up in Safety Harbor, Florida, Zander initially didn’t understand that his dad was different than the other parents around him. “That said, I definitely have something to prove. “I can’t control if if someone says, ‘He’s just someone’s son,’” he says. ![]() It’s inevitable that some fans will resent seeing the frontman’s kid join the band - a knock that’s familiar to second-generation performers from Nic Collins to Wolfgang Van Halen, fairly or not - but Zander has come to terms with that. “It’s all just been mind-blowing to me, and it’s shown me what I can do under pressure. “If you asked me five years ago if all this stuff would happen, I would have said you were crazy,” says Zander, 28. He’s also filled in for lead guitarist Rick Nielsen a handful of times when health issues forced him off the road, meaning he has now played every single role in Cheap Trick besides his dad’s lead singer gig. Those handful of shows led to a full-time position in the band as a rhythm guitarist and background singer, and it placed him in position to sub in for bassist Tom Petersson in 2021 when Petersson was sidelined by heart surgery. It’s another thing to play for thousands of people and hold down the beat.” “It’s one thing to play with your friends on the weekend when you’re in high school. Cheap Trick flew the younger Zander in as a last-minute sub despite his relative inexperience. He got the chance in 2016 when Daxx Nielsen, who replaced Carlos as the band’s drummer in 2010, had to take time off for the birth of his child. ![]() “All I wanted to do was go up there,” he says. At night, he’d snuggle up next to his dad, lead singer Robin Wayne Zander, on the tour bus, and when they performed he’d watch every show from the side of the stage. When Robin Taylor Zander was a little kid, he loved spending his summers on the road with his father’s band, Cheap Trick.

Nestopia linux5/9/2023 ![]() This is why NES games appear to have different colors on different TV sets. This means the resulting color palette often varies depending on the display's decoder. ![]() Unlike consoles like the SNES, which natively generate the image in pure RGB, the NES/Famicom normally generates and outputs an encoded NTSC video signal, which must then be decoded by the TV's built-in NTSC decoder. It did not seem that there was standardization until the next generation of consoles. SMB3 requires a lot of cropping, however the same level of cropping will obscure of the letters in the status bar in Castlevania games. Many games seem to require different levels of overcropping. There is, however, seemingly no standard level of overcropping. Several NES games need the overscan to be cropped to look proper. Note the blank blue area to the left and the green garbage on the right. Version 2.2.2 is promised to have brought improvements from Bizhawk, a more accurate emulator, but it is unknown how much is fixed.Įxample of faulty visuals that are exposed due to crop overscan not working. FCEUX scores fairly low in the same tests, despite being a recommended emulator on TASVideos. The New PPU is more accurate than the Old PPU, however.Nestopia has a high ranking in those same tests.However, according to the same tests, Mesen is actually slightly ahead of puNES, with a score of 98.1%.So just because an emulator has high ratings doesn't mean it is free of issues. These test ROMs used for determining accuracy in tests, unfortunately, don't test everything that matters for accurate emulation (and in some cases, test stuff that doesn't matter for emulating any games). PuNES is the most accurate NES emulator according to tests.*AoEX is based on NesterJ 1.12 Plus 0.61 RM, so it includes features like rewind mode, cheat codes support, rotated/mirrored screen, sepia palette, support to rare mappers (the pirate bootleg FF7 works on it), etc, but its compatibility is inferior to 1.13 beta 2.

When building a dashboard make sure not to use a lot of different font sizes, because it can mess up the looks and consistency. You can read about using custom fonts in Tableau here. If you know you’re designing for PC / Mac users only, here’s a broader list for you. I put together a list of popular web safe fonts, then deleted everything custom both on my Mac & PC and this is what I see: However, I just made a test and it doesn’t seem to be accurate. This is the official list of Tableau Public web safe fonts according to Tableau: Let’s have a look at a Safari example! If I use a custom monospace font (like Lucida Console), for the others viewing my dashboard in Safari, it will fall back to Courier, a custom serif (like Playfair Display) to Times, and a custom sans-serif (like Futura) to Helvetica. If you use a font installed on your computer, that a viewer doesn’t have installed, his view will fall back to his default browser font. Other fonts cannot be guaranteed to display as expected since browser rendering of fonts depends on fonts being installed on both the server and client devices. Tableau Public and Tableau Online support fonts officially licensed for their Linux servers. Every computer that has a browser installed has default fonts built in so that it can display the text on the web. A web safe font is a font that is considered to be a ‘safe bet’ to be installed on the vast majority of computers. Using fonts in Tableau can be a tricky thing because only Tableau web safe fonts will show up the same for everyone. Examples of popular display fonts: Bauhaus, Broadway, Stencil, Windsorįor business dashboards it’s best to use only monotype, serif, and sans serif options. ![]() They may take inspiration from other genres of lettering, such as hand painted signs, calligraphy or an aesthetic appropriate to their use, perhaps ornamented, exotic, abstracted or drawn in the style of a different writing system. ![]() A display typeface is a typeface that is intended for use at large sizes for headings, rather than for extended passages of body text.Examples of popular script fonts: Brush Script, Lucida Calligraphy, Lucida Handwriting, Papyrus, Comic Sans.They are generally used for display or trade printing, rather than for extended body text in the Latin alphabet. Script typefaces are based upon the varied and often fluid stroke created by handwriting.Examples of popular sans-serif fonts: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, Futura, Avenir, Myriad Pro.They are often used to convey simplicity and modernity or minimalism. Sans-serif fonts tend to have less stroke width variation than serif fonts. In typography and lettering, a sans-serif, sans serif, gothic, or simply sans letterform is one that does not have extending features called “serifs” at the end of strokes.

Black mesa research facility image5/9/2023 Black Mesa, as the same announcement states, is an equal opportunity employer. It also notes that jobs in low-clearance security and materials handling are available. During the tram ride that opens Half-Life, an announcement on the public address system states that the facility is seeking employees with backgrounds in theoretical physics, biotechnology, and various other high-tech scientific disciplines. A large amount of classified research is carried out, including the development of high-tech weapons and defense systems, research into extra- dimensional travel, teleportation, and the study of Xen (an extradimensional domain). In addition to this legitimate research, several secret projects are also carried out at Black Mesa, which are deliberately left vague, an aspect praised for its suspense. The facility also serves as a base for decommissioning nuclear weapons. Much of the work undertaken at the facility involves fairly practical scientific research, such as radiation, rocketry, theoretical physics, lasers, experimental propulsion, hydraulics, robotics, hydroelectricity, genetics, applied mathematics and a very wide spectrum of theoretical research into chemistry and all manner of physics research. The Black Mesa facility is built over several decommissioned missile silo complexes constructed during the 1950s, which have been converted into a vast civilian institute for the research of scientific disciplines. 4.4 Sector C Test Labs and Control Facilities. |
