As for chanter dualclassing, chanter dualclasses well with anything. The best chanter subclass for pets (or in general actually) is troubador. It increases the summon costs while decreasing their durations so you essentially only have a pet up 50 of the time. Its really no contest when compared to other Chanters. Beckoner isn't a great summoning subclass for the chanter. ![]() I like skald for multi class cus seriously the two invocations "at the sound of his voice." And "the thunder rolled like waves." Both offensive and either stun or paralyze (and just use the stun one on guys who are resistant to dex afflictions) can allow you to stun lock groups of people and fire them off constantly cus the reduced chant cost.Īlso "hell crashed upon the shield" when it's upgraded to its second tier is insanely powerful. It is the most versatile (and in my opinion, best) Chanter subclass with longer linger effects on your chants (allowing buffs to overlap more often) and the ability to sacrifice that to chant phrases faster, allowing you to cast more invocations.

Soul blade is a good multi class cipher cus you don't have to spend a lot of abilities on cipher spells, cus you'll only need a small handful and mostly use your soul blade anywayĮvoker wizard and chanter is also super powerful. 2) Fighter/anything adds tankiness to any class.

I have been using Macs for more than 20 years and I am saddened to see the demise in usability and function of Apple products. Keynote may be more glitzy in effects but Powerpoint FAR more flexible and compatible with available facilities in most places. Now, I wish I had not wasted my time learning this half done Keyword, and had spent my time learning Powerpoint. I researched and found that people have been complaining about this for years, but there has been no attempt to make this small feature available. ![]() It is a brick wall in productivity terms. This is all because Keynote will only play at full screen. Or, export a movie and edit in FinalCut, which is another project to do. But, all the effects change and the timeing. The only way I can work is to export to Powerpoint to view in the window. So, I thought, buy another monitor and have GarageBand on one monitor and Keynote on the other. Trying to record in GarageBand at the same time is impossible. You can't play a Keynote presentation in the window. So, you can't watch and record in GarageBand. If you try to play Keynote presentations it has to be in full screen. I thought I would be able to play a slide show while recording in GarageBand and then add the audio to the presentation. However, if you want to add audio or make a video with audio, don't waste your time learning how to use it. The effects are good and can make you look good. Keynote is okay for beginners who only need to have a few basic slides for a visual presentation.
![]() For the prospective homeowner considering solar, the next step is to review our: Three Tips for Solar Shoppers 1. By comparison, states with fewer peak sunlight hours can be just as ideal for solar panels, but will require more efficient solar equipment. In a state with strong peak sunlight, a panel with lower efficiency will likely do the trick. Solar panel efficiency typically ranges from 15 to 20 percent, but high-end solar panels like SunPower can offer efficiency levels as high as almost 23 percent and above. The cost of energy can be more of a deciding factor for the economics of solar than available sunlight – hence why a state like Massachusetts is a much more popular place for solar energy than many of the sunny Southeastern states where the cost of energy is low.įurthermore, in the case of states with high electricity prices but low peak sunlight hours, solar-interested homeowners can install higher-efficiency panels that will generate more power from less sunlight. Nevertheless, electricity prices in those states are high and there are a number of major states incentives that make solar affordable. ![]() However, number of peak sunlight hours is not the only factor that influences the cost-benefit ratio of solar energy.įor example, in states like Massachusetts and New York, sunshine is less plentiful. Conventional wisdom would say that the states with the highest sunlight hour averages are the best ones for solar. have higher average sun-hour values (Arizona, California), other top solar states are on the lower end for peak sun-hour averages (New York, Massachusetts). There are conflicting takeaways from this table: though many top states for solar in the U.S. Check out how the top states for solar power stack up in terms of average peak sunlight hours per day: Peak sun hours by state State homeowners will see major disparity in available sunlight depending on where they live. What are the average peak sunlight hours in my state?Īs mentioned above, U.S. The number of peak sun hours will increase the closer an area is to the equator and, more generally, during summer months. Peak sun-hours occur when the sun is highest in the sky. Peak sunlight hours describe the intensity of sunlight in a specific area. will have practically the same total daylight, some states may only average two peak sun-hours per day while others will average as many as seven.Ī peak sun-hour is typically defined as an hour of sunlight that offers 1,000 watts of photovoltaic power per square meter. What is a “peak sun hour”?Īn important clarification to make with the term “sun hour” is that it does not refer to merely hours of daylight. there certainly is a trend: having at least 4 hours of typical peak sunlight is best for solar panels. However, when looking at the best states for solar in the U.S. The simple answer to this question is that there is no simple answer because a home’s suitability for solar will depend on a number of factors: roof angle, electricity bill cost and available sunlight. In this article, we’ll explain which states offer the best sun hour value and how much sunlight intensity in your state should impact your decision to go solar. When weighing the decision of whether or not going solar makes sense for your roof or location, one of the first questions you may ask is “how many sun hours do I need for solar to be worth it?” The reason this question is important is because there is a significant range across the country for average peak sun hours. ![]() So they just put things inside an MP4 that do not belong there.

But however real their pairing was, the fight certainly came off as real (whether any of the accusations were true or not). It is fair enough to wonder how real any relationship begun on a TV dating show is. (The regret was not shared by ABC, which stood to gain huge ratings from the public confrontation and plugged it throughout the regular Bachelorette episode that preceded it.) Then he brought out Jake and Vienna and let the recriminations begin. Murrow beginning a primetime documentary, said that it was with “a certain regret” that he brought us this update. Harrison, introducing the interview with as much gravitas as if he were Edward R. Men! They only want one thing! And it turns out to be a different only one thing from the only one thing they’re supposed to want! The charge, as Vienna brought it: that a month after they declared their love in the eyes of God and ABC, Jake became withholding and verbally abusive, that he stopped being physically intimate and-shockingly, for a reality-TV participant-he was only interested in fame. We’re rooting for the mold guy.Follow night on a very special edition of The Bachelorette, the current reigning Bachelor, Jake Pavelka, and the object of his rose-bestowal, Vienna Girardi, returned to explain to Chris Harrison the very public tabloid breakup of their made-on-TV relationship. The show then cut to previews for next week’s Bachelorette, during which Ali visits the parents of the man she’ll eventually break up with on the cover of People. Vienna eventually stormed out in a fit of tears, while Jake smirked menacingly. She responded, “And then his anger - he’ll take it and throw the thing behind the car!” (GPS causes a rift in yet another relationship.) If you discount the fact that Jake and Vienna are on the cover of Us Weekly, they sound like any other unhappy American couple, fighting about getting lost and lack of sex. “She’ll ask me, ‘I don’t know where I am,’, ‘Babe, the building you’re looking for is one mile this way, turn right on that road it’s right there on the left,’ and she’ll reach back, grab the GPS, and put it in there, and I’m like, ‘Well, what did you ask for?’” said Jake, as an example of Vienna’s undermining. Things then devolved into ugliness, including mentions of dog IVs, infidelity, gay friends, “poly-o-graphs,” withholding of sex, and emasculation, culminating in a story about a fight over the GPS. “You are a fame whore,” responded Vienna. Wait, flirted with your own fiancé? That’s kind of weird. “You sold me out to a magazine for payment, and then flirted with me all weekend!” he went on. I’m so disgusted with you,” Jake shot back. Jake’s evil - who knew?! Vienna detailed Jake’s temper and said she had to ask him to kiss her (and when he did kiss her, he didn’t use tongue). ![]() Of course, it’s not surprising that two people who went on a reality-TV show are fame-seeking liars, but after a heavily edited season of cooing and emoting and generally being on their best behavior, it was interesting to see the couple as they really are. ![]() And it turned out that they’re both horrible, fame-seeking liars! At first, it seemed like Jake was the good guy - his girlfriend sold their breakup story to a tabloid, he wanted to save their engagement - until Vienna came out to tell her side. I come home and I’m on the cover of five magazines,” he said, as if that’s a bad thing for a person whose salary comes from being on the cover of magazines. Jake looked tanned and soap opera star-ish, and said that the split took him by surprise - “I’m gone for a couple of days, and everything just explodes. Jake came on first to speak with host/marriage counselor Chris Harrison (“It is with a certain degree of sadness that I bring you this special Bachelor update,” Harrison opened, gravely). With both sides blabbing to the tabloids, it was only fair that ABC also got in on the action. The high drama of last night’s Bachelorette (would Ali choose the cute blond who almost died from toxic mold, or the hulk whose mom thinks women shouldn’t work?) was cut short to make time for some very special programming: a sit-down with last season’s winning couple, Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi, to discuss their messy breakup. That’s why we called it “the enthusiast’s choice” in our full review of the headset. It’s pricey compared to the rest, but has an excellent balance of quality, performance, and comfort.

Of course, you’ll need a reasonably powerful gaming PC to plug your headset into. PC VR is where you’ll find the highest quality visuals and the most ambitious VR games like Half-Life: Alyx.

However, Apple showed that it’s working to bolster the gaming scene on the Mac at WWDC. Gaming played a fairly small role in Apple’s debut of the Vision Pro, likely to the delight of companies who exist solely to produce gaming VR headsets. Apple talked up the headset’s micro OLED displays, which it claims are the size of a postage stamp, and lenses that make it feel like you’re fully surrounded by your content. And your games, or whatever else you’ll be watching on this $3,499 headset, should look great. ![]() While Apple didn’t make any bold claims in terms of gaming performance, the headset’s hardware should be more than capable enough at running some games that are on Mac. The Vision Pro features Apple’s M2 processor - the same one used in its latest laptops and desktops. Thanks to its ability to connect with your Mac, you’ll be able to view other games through it, too, assuming your Mac is powerful enough to run them. With gaming, you can position and resize the game screen to your liking within any room you’re in. In terms of gaming, the Vision Pro will be compatible with over 100 Apple Arcade games at launch, and it can connect to game controllers like Sony’s DualSense controller. Relatedly, Disney CEO Bob Iger appeared during Apple’s keynote to share that a special version of Disney Plus will be available on the Vision Pro that provides a vastly more info-rich experience, whether you’re watching sports or Star Wars. It’s also compatible with 3D movies, for all of you Avatar fans. The Vision Pro can also let you get immersed with movies and TV shows the headset can dim the surrounding field of view to make it look like you’re in a movie theater. To others in the FaceTime call, you’ll be represented as a “Persona” (not to be confused with the Atlus RPG series) that’s computationally generated with its internal cameras. Alternatively, it can be powered by your Mac.Īpple spent a lot of time talking about how the Vision Pro could become a big deal in the workspace, with its ability to show multiple screens, including FaceTime in augmented reality, within your room. Its battery can power the headset for up to two hours. Notably, the Vision Pro doesn’t have a built-in battery instead of trying to pack one in, which would have expanded its size and weight, the battery is external, and can be tucked in your pocket. The headset is able to show a 4K display of your Mac’s screen on its headset, if you’d prefer to work that way. You can use apps created for the Vision Pro, or use it to connect to your Mac wirelessly. If you’re busy while using the Vision Pro, onlookers will see a preview of your content laid over your eyes. Its most impressive (and conversation-starting) design feature is its glass-covered exterior that can display your eyes when there’s a person nearby. For instance, the Digital Crown used to control the opacity of your augmented view first appeared on the Apple Watch, albeit for a completely different purpose. The Vision Pro has an intriguing design that borrows elements from Apple’s other products. The Vision Pro has bottom-mounted cameras that allow it to track small hand gestures. However, it doesn’t operate with typical VR/AR controllers it relies on users’ eye movement, hand tracking, and voice to navigate its interface. Like the Meta Quest, the Vision Pro is a stand-alone headset running on its own platform, visionOS. Our sibling site The Verge has first-look impressions with the Vision Pro. Apple CEO Tim Cook debuted the high-end Vision Pro augmented reality headset at the WWDC 2023 keynote on Monday, of which it was the highlight announcement.Īpple’s Vision Pro headset will be released in early 2024, starting at a whopping $3,499. After years of rumors suggesting that Apple would launch a virtual reality headset, that reality has arrived. |
