![]() ![]() After receiving sword-fighting lessons from Captain Smirk, Guybrush says, "I cant help but feel like Ive been ripped off," then turns towards the screen and continues, " Im sure you're feeling something similar." On the other hand.Guybrush uses gopher repellant on a gopher, another gopher, a gopher horde and a funny little man.The ingredients for grog, listed under Gargle Blaster below (actually more like: Squick, squick, squick, pepperoni).Buffy Speak: ".and the Trial of, err, Treasure Hunter-y.".Boring Return Journey: Getting to Monkey Island takes up an entire chapter (and that's after you've obtained the ship and the crew) getting back again is over in a single line of narration.Book Ends: The conversation in the outro cinematic is similar to the one that begins the game. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you spend too long wandering through The Maze, looking at every random horror, Guybrush starts to think they're "Neat!" and "Gnarly!" He never gets used to the mushrooms, though. Crosses over with Fire and Brimstone Hell, due to the rivers of magma. Bloody Bowels of Hell: The catacombs (implied to be part of the capital "H" Hell) have eyes, noses, whole faces, and even hearts growing out of the walls and floors.All of which, aside from the last one, are different types of Coke. It also has the following flavors: "Grog", "Diet Grog", "Cherry Grog", "Grog Classic", "Caffeine free Grog", and "Root Beer". The Grog machine is a Coca-Cola vending machine, red with a white stripe, just with "Grog" in place of "Coke".The 'Grog-O-Mint' mints Guybrush buys to give to Otis are this of Lifesavers Pep-O-Mints, or Polo mints to UK players.Guybrush takes a mug of grog, transferring it between mugs when one is rendered nearly useless, and uses it to dissolve the lock on Otis' prison cell. Bizarre Beverage Use: The grog served at the Scumm Bar is so corrosive it eats through the mugs.Bilingual Bonus: If you understand French, you might more easily guess the purpose of the "caniche endormi" (literally, "sleeping poodle") flowers.Barefoot Sage: The Voodoo Lady's long dress doesn't cover her bare feet.Audience? What Audience?: Herman Toothrot keeps turning to the screen and talking to "the people watching, of course." Guybrush asks him who he's talking to (even though he's constantly doing the same thing himself).Aside Glance: Guybrush frequently turns to the player when voicing his descriptions out loud, but seems confused when other characters do the same.The redrawn artwork in the remake - the shift is so drastic that there is actually a petition to have Guybrush's hair changed back to how it used to be and a fan-made patch restores the good old ways.The original EGA release had the close-ups in a style somewhat more consistent with the rest of the game's graphics - compare Elaine's EGA close-up with its VGA counterpart - and Ron Gilbert objected strongly to the more detailed style that was added in the later VGA release, but was overruled by the higher-ups at Lucasarts. It is this realism that clashes with the visual style of every other game. Most conversations between Guybrush and another character will feature a close-up shot of that character in a highly detailed and realistic portrait.Anti Poopsocking: These parting words: "Turn off your computer and go to sleep."."I beat the Sword Master and all I got was this stupid T-shirt."."I found the Legendary Lost Treasure of Mêlée Island and all I got was this stupid T-shirt!".And Now You Must Marry Me: Elaine Marley is not a smart person to try this on. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can also see when the price information was last updated for each station. This is where Waze displays a list of the gas stations in your region, along with the price for the chosen type of fuel, the distance to each location, and its address. These include parking locations, drive-thrus, restaurants, gas stations, and so many others.Īnd given we’re interested in the fuel prices, you need to tap the gas station icon to advance to the next screen. Discover how this simple tool can estimate your total trip cost, gas mileage, gallons used, and the savings you'll. Find the cheapest gas stations on your route with this easy-to-use gas estimator for your trip. The application should now display a detailed address configuration UI that includes not only history and saved places but also points of interest in your region. You can gain access to insider knowledge to save money by using the GasBuddy gas calculator. Unlike fuel retailer apps, as well as newer apps focused on fuel savings, GasBuddy covers 150,000+ gas stations in North America, giving drivers 27 ways to save on fuel. find gas stations, and it will show gas stations on the map (which you can. To do this, launch Waze and, without setting up a destination, tap the “ Where to?” box where you typically type a new address. For budget-minded drivers, GasBuddy is the travel and navigation app that is used by more North American drivers to save money on gas than any other. You can open Google Maps and type in covid testing near me to get a list. The Google-owned application allows users to see the prices at the gas stations in their regions even without the navigation to be enabled. ![]() Considering the gas prices are soaring, many people are trying to plan their routes in advance, and therefore make sure they stop for a refill in the right place. ![]() ![]() ![]() servers back up to par and compete with the other major players in the VPN marketplace. With companies like Private Tunnel and ExpressVPN performing considerably faster than VyprVPN, Golden Frog will have their work cut out for them in the coming months to bring their U.S. servers have caused VyprVPN to drop from the 4th fastest VPN down to the 18th (which is a far fall indeed). When I last reviewed VyprVPN it was the fourth fastest VPN out of the 70+ that have been reviewed here on Īlthough VyprVPN performs just as well as it always has, there have been a number of new additions to the VPN marketplace that have knocked VyprVPN out of the ranking for the fastest VPNs. servers, on the other hand, leave something to be desired. However, some of their other servers didn’t fare quite as well…Īs you can see, VyprVPN’s EU servers are highly optimized and provide their users with rapid download and upload speeds. With a download speed of 74.48 Mbps VyprVPN slowed my connection by a little bit less than 24% which is more than acceptable. Here’s how it performed when we connected VyprVPN to an EU server. Our benchmark speed test (without a VPN) clocked in with a 98 Mbps download speed and a 53 Mbps upload speed: It’s also important to consider that, even though Switzerland resides outside of the five, nine, and fourteen eyes countries, their data retention laws and internet privacy policies aren’t as favorable as many people claim and they could pose as a potential issue for some users. However, when we checked their policy again in March 2019 we found that they had changed their approach - and we can now confirm that they truly keep no logs: VyprVPN used to keep the following information for 30 days after your last session… With such a long and rich history of fighting for internet security and individual privacy rights, you would imagine that VyprVPN would provide a strict “Zero Logs” policy. So far, things are looking great for VyprVPN… But what about their logging policy? Unfortunately, due to VPN restrictions by iOS, this technology is only available for Android, Windows, and Mac users (sorry iPhone users). If you’re using your VPN from a country like China, Russia, or Turkey, this can, quite literally, be a lifesaver. ![]() In response to these recent crackdowns, VyprVPN developed a proprietary technology known as Chameleon™ that scrambles your metadata so that you can continue to use your VPN without getting picked up by the DPI scans. Once they’ve caught onto your trail, these governments will begin to block or throttle your usage to ensure that you cannot successfully use a VPN for any purpose (legal or otherwise). In recent years, draconian countries like North Korea and China have been cracking down on VPN users using something known as a ‘ Deep Packet Inspection or DPI which scans metadata and searches for tell-tale signs that indicate someone is using a VPN. To accomplish this goal, they provide their users with access to the OpenVPN protocol (default) as well as PPTP, IPSec, and L2TP and they encrypt all of your data using the ultra-secure AES-256 encryption key (the same standard used by the FBI, CIA, and NSA).īut they don’t stop protecting your data there… protect your privacy online, secure your Internet connection and restore your freedom. VyprVPN’s primary mission, as stated on their website, is simple. Let’s dive in and find out! VyprVPN Overview OVERALL RANK: Lead by Ron and Carolyn Yokubaitis (relatives), Golden Frog and their 20+ employees have been on the frontlines of the battle for internet privacy in recent years and have built a strong reputation as one of the leading VPN providers on the web.Īs such, I had pretty high expectations going into this review.ĭoes Golden Frog’s VyprVPN live up to the hype? So they decided to take matters into their own hands… ![]() Switzerland based company Golden Frog (the parent company of VyprVPN) has been an integral player in the fight for online privacy since the inception of the internet.Īccording to their website, the company was founded in response to the Room 641a incident where the NSA was illegally surveilling citizens by tapping the AT&T network cables.Īllegedly, Golden Frog filed a formal complaint with the FCC to try and expose the issue to the public, but was ignored. In this VyprVPN review, I’ll do my best to list out all the advantages and disadvantages of this VPN service. ![]() ![]() ![]() Every interaction and story beat is so real and logical that it immerses you into the world of Ratner and doesn’t let you go even if you want to. But when you do notice it, it will certainly enrich your viewing experience. However, that’s a tale as old as time, right? So, why is it so interesting? That’s because of the Safdie Brothers and Bronstein’s intense character work that doesn’t resort to exposition and is realistic AF! I mean, while watching it, you likely won’t realise that there’s not a single line of dialogue which is exposition for the sake of exposition something that is actually very rare in movies nowadays. The deeper you go into your own web of lies and deceit just because you have a hunch that you’ll win at the end, the harder it will be to get out of it. And in doing so the writers present a cautionary tale about when you need to say ‘no’. ![]() He chooses to show off this cheap deal he has cracked for his opal when he could’ve just sent it for auction and gotten a sizable price for it. He chooses to do business with his family, which is a serious no-no in any given situation. But he chooses to have a girlfriend, which everyone knows will jeopardise the relationship with his wife sooner or later. Ratner has a stable enough life, a family, and a decent recognition in his business. But on a deeper dissection, it is revealed that the narrative is a commentary on how we complicate things when there is no need to complicate it. It basically is about a gambler trying to pay off his debt. But I also believe that that’s how the script for a Safdie Brothers movie works. I think that feels like an oversimplification of what is going on in the movie. And that and many other gambles taken by Ratner puts him in loads of trouble. But that’s taken away by Garnett, the Boston Celtics player, because he thinks it will bring him good luck. He believes that he can do it by auctioning the opal. We then meet Ratner who is a fast-talking jeweler who is nose-deep in debt and is trying to move the little money he has from one place to another so that he doesn’t have to give it back to the person he owes it to i.e. Among them, two miners use this distraction to get into the mine and steal a rock, the uncut gem, that Ratner has ordered. The movie opens in an Ethiopian mine where a miner has suffered a devastating accident and everyone over there has gathered to tend to his wounds. The Safdie brothers' and Ronald Bronstein's script is to die for! However, his habit of gambling takes him down a hell-hole that doesn’t have the happiest of endings for him. Ratner plans to auction it off so that he can earn a shit-ton of money and pay off his debts. ![]() He comes across a Jewish opal which probably has some supernatural powers and bestows its owner with the ability to succeed in their endeavours. The story revolves around Sandler's Howard Ratner who is a Jewish-American Diamond District jeweler who is addicted to gambling. The cast consists of Adam Sandler, Lakeith Stanfield, Julia Fox, Kevin Garnett, Idina Menzel, and Eric Bogosian. The score is by Daniel Lopatin, the cinematography is by Darius Khondji, and the editing is by Bronstein and Benny Safdie. It is written by the Safdie Brothers and Ronald Bronstein. ![]() Uncut Gems is directed by the Safdie Brothers. What I can do is blame the Academy for not recognising Uncut Gems via the nominations after the heaps of praise it has received since its release and will continue to receive after its Netflix release. So, you can't exactly blame them when they weren’t quite optimistic about his collaboration with the Safdie Brothers. However, he has trashed people’s belief in him with stuff like Murder Mystery, The Week Of, The Ridiculous 6, Sandy Wexler, The Do-Over etc. He has ruled the 2000s with a string of comedy films. He has given commendable performances in the Noah Baumbach directed The Meyerowitz Stories and Paul Thomas Anderson’s Punch-Drunk Love. You don’t expect a lot from Adam Sandler movies and that’s mostly his fault. And just when you’ll think that the rollercoaster ride is over, Adam Sandler and the rest of the cast will just bring you to the edge of your seat all over again. Daniel Lopatin’s score and Darius Khondji’s cinematography will draw you deeper and deeper into the dirty crevices of New York. The Safdie Brothers’ much-anticipated follow-up to Good Time is a bunch of anxiety induced panic attacks rolled into one crisply written and directed film. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Win64:Malware-gen is a heuristic detection designed and used by Avast Antivirus for generically detecting a trojan horse.

![]() My car is fiberglass, and it turns out that there were several "loose" or "not solid" spots in the 'glass! After that, I patched some places with plastic filler and proceeded to sand the car the rest of the way - down to the light-blue gelcoat. Because I saw the paint was loose, I thought to myself "let's use a pressure washer to make short work of it." Bad idea. For those with still-good-factory finishes sand with 800 grit sandpaper (or Red Scotchbrite) and jump to the Applying Primer section. in my case, the original paint was heavily orange-peeled and flaking off in places, so it had to go. It's important to start with a clean surface. but the Harbor Freight gun isn't too bad once you clean and fix it
![]() The abbreviated time also means there’s no time to have the edit give focus and attention to the person who might be leaving, so the result is often surprising: perhaps an artist who was mostly in the background and produced so-so work without any big moments. While we see the judges-”head evaluator” Katherine Gray, Uhas, plus a guest judge-survey the completed pieces, and talk to the artists, there’s no time for their deliberation. We just dip in and see the artist and their assistant doing something: cutting, twirling, burning, running across the studio to put something into the annealer, a word I now know, thanks to Blown Away. There’s no time to do anything except acknowledge that each artist has an assistant, who play key roles (blowing, carrying, holding, cutting) but are treated like background. (He’s a former Big Brother contestant and one-time America’s Got Talent auditioner, and he keeps things moving smoothly and keeps the focus on the contestants.) ![]() It just starts immediately: no time in a house, no interviews where the contestants reflect on the last challenge, no set-up, just host Uhas introducing the challenge. With well under a half-hour for each episode, Blown Away doesn’t have time to waste. The episodes are 23 minutes each: half the length of Top Chef, a third the length of an average Project Runway. The prize includes a residency at the Corning Museum of Glass, which seemed thrilled that the show “will bring the art of glassblowing to a global audience.”īlown Away lacks what other reality TV competitions have, for better and for worse. It’s clearly not a recipient of unlimited Netflix cash, judging from the prize package that host Nick Uhas insists is “a life-changing prize package” but is worth, in total, $60,000. The series first aired on the Canadian DIY network Makeful, and was a co-production between that network’s owner, Blue Ant Media, and Netflix. Blown Away has artistry, talent, and a Big Brother cast member talking about glory holes Blown Away host Nick Uhas, head judge Katherine Gray, and the season-one contestants (Photo by David Leyes/marblemedia) Their work is is reduced to a montage of moments-some focus, but no coherent arc, a start to finish, raw material to completed artwork. There is the flip side to that, and it’s Blown Away’s problem as a competition: there is very, very little that’s shown about the creative process. I genuinely don’t know how they’re able to create what they do, especially given the time constraints. There are complex interlocking shapes, sometimes inset one within the other, and end products that can be surprisingly complex or beautifully simple. Blown Away introduces tools and techniques, and artists use those to sculpt pieces that are dazzling: smooth and twisted, colorful and clear. I’m not sure what to make of the breathless headlines (“ Blown Away Is Netflix’s Must-Watch Glassblowing Competition of the Summer”, “… your latest reality obsession”, “… The Next Show You Need To Watch”), because that enthusiasm seems overblown for what’s actually on the screen.īut Netflix’s algorithm surfaced it for me, and it pulled me in, like a gentle yet insistent current pulling me along from episode to episode.įor exposing the world to an art form and craft that has not received television attention, especially not like cooking or fashion, it’s wildly successful. That’s why the flutter of attention it’s gotten in the past two weeks was a little surprising. many of the standard elements of reality TV talent competitions). But it’s also missing pieces, making it feel so entirely ordinary that it barely stands out except for what it lacks (e.g. It’s something new and different, showcasing an art form that hasn’t gotten this kind of televised attention before.
