![]() ![]() Not really because I think, if you look back before I got into the NFL, I think they played fewer games, 14 or 12, maybe. Los Angeles Rams star wide receiver Cooper Kupp said the other day, essentially, records broken with the newly expanded season should have an asterisk. It was sometimes a distraction, but some of it was a lot of fun pretending like I sang on a Huey Lewis album, doing Saturday Night Live with Walter Payton, meeting my wife through a commercial. ![]() Every now and then he would pull me in, give me a shake and kick me back out the door. ( Laughs.) But then I got the ole ruler smacked on my hands occasionally by Bill Walsh, reminding me that if you want to keep doing those things, you better be ready for the season. What was it like being among the first NFL stars who transcended the game? More than just trading cards and magazine covers, your face was on Starting Lineup action figures, video games, tackling dummies pillows, and then you even did SNL. Otherwise, it was tough watching, going through it again and living it again puts the same temperament in your mind. I had to watch them once to say, “Yes, they look great,” and move forward. I didn’t watch the episodes over and over. So going back and looking at this was hard. This is probably the toughest thing because I don’t live in my past. Sounds like it was pretty tough revisiting that time, those legendary glory days. And what I went through - I think people will be shocked by some of the things that happened. I learned the best preparation when I got to the 49ers with Bill Walsh.Īnd then you get to San Francisco - you’ve won four Super Bowls, two in a row and about to be a third in a row - I got injured and then the next thing you know, I won’t get a chance to play again, and I get traded to Kansas City. You never stop believing in yourself and always be prepared. If you want something bad enough, you can’t give up at it. I think the biggest thing about coming out of here is if you want something bad enough, you just never quit. What do you hope fans will ultimately come away with from the Cool Under Pressure series? The 65-year-old Pro Football Hall of Famer, who notes he could only watch the series a single time to give a final OK, told The Hollywood Reporter some viewers may even be “shocked” by what they will learn. Nevertheless a very good/well produced sports doc series that I will probably watch again.John Wick 'Continental' Trailer Reveals Mel Gibson's Mysterious VillainĬool Under Pressure features many tales about the San Francisco 49ers (then Kansas City Chiefs) star quarterback that most people don’t know. ![]() A storybook ending would have been for him to win a record breaking 5th SB with KC. Though it was a shame having to retire in '94, for that team finished 1st overall the following season (13-3 record + 7 pro bowlers). Playing his final 2 seasons with Marcus at KC (whom had similar issues with Al Davis) must have been a nice treat for both of them. They morally owed him that, but instead sat him for an entire year (amidst a cloud of ongoing tension). Nevertheless, if Joe was not content playing 2nd string upon his '91 injury recovery (age 36 - past his prime), the 49ers should have traded him immediately.and to a division contender. Sometimes it can work, sometimes it can backfire. Unthinkable!! These kinds of things can happen whenever coaches put their shrink hats on with their players. Barring injury, benching a healthy Joe Montana would be like benching Gretzky or Jordan in favor of another player. One main aspect of the story was the Montana vs Young debacle. Joe is also 1 of only 3 QB's with 4 or more SB's (Bradshaw (4) and Brady (7) being the only others). This of course was accomplished prior to the modern era of protected QB's (whom occupy 8 of the top 10 slots). Montana's passing yardage is surprisingly low on the all-time list (#21), particularly compared to his 80's counterparts (Marino #7 and Elway #11), but he is #8 for all time comp% and #6 for overall passer rating. I'm a stats guy, so I always have several wiki pages open on my computer whenever watching any of these sports docs. It is basically like watching a long episode of A Football Life.which I thoroughly enjoy. Living a mostly storied life (which is also fun to watch), Montana's career also contained enough drama and struggles to comfortably pull it off. There aren't too many people in all of sports that could justify making a 5 hour documentary of their career. ![]()

![]() It may not be the same struggle to hold the mishima zaibatsu, but they all still have ties to one another. The story was supposed to put an end to the Mishima family feud, but with Kazuya, lee, lars and jin being alive it will live on. I mean they cant just kill him he is kinde of main character in the series but its not about thet the game holds on the family war and stuf i gues resurection is what heihachi is going to get and i cant w8 2 see what will be up in tekken 8 ![]() u have a good point about jinpaichi devil gene. Still, if they want him in the game they just need to use the excuse that Jinpaichi has a different type of devil gene, and it is only awoken after some tramatic experience, or when his physical body dies, or something like that. Even though Kazuya has been thrown into a volcano and returned, Heihachi wasn't supposed to carry the devil gene and was just one hell of a resilient human being which has been thrown off clifs, punched through metal robots, and was blown up, and woke up miles away from the blast area. Heihachi, for the sake of the tekken 7 story is dead. It just depends on how many flashback sequences they can fit into Tekken 8's story, should they go that route again.Perish_Song님이 먼저 게시:First *spoiler warning*. Heihachi may be gone in the present, but that doesn't mean he'll stay off of the game's new roster considering they already did that with Kazumi Mishima in Tekken 7, who was also super dead. It does ultimately feel fitting with Tekken 7 wrapping up Heihachi and Kazuya's father-son issues to move on to do the same between Kazuya and Jin doing the same in Tekken 8 - and they've got a lot of issues to work out. Heihachi's fate came a bit into question recently, when Leroy Smith's character profile for Tekken 8 mentioned Mishima as having "disappeared", but that now seems to be fully explained by Kazuya and the G Corp covering the situation. Murray goes on to joke about the idea of an "AI Heihachi," but it sounds like those steering the Tekken ship have closed the book on the elder Mishima's conquest (for now at least). "It's my favorite character, so I was shocked," said Harada. "Heihachi has been dead so many times, you have to make sure it's convincing this time', and we were like, 'you told us to make sure he's dead, right?!'" said Murray about the director's orders. Harada then told Liang that he was surprised at just how hard the team killed off Heihachi, but Murray responds it was an order given to them by Harada himself. "Heihachi had failed to actually convert the devil gene, and he doesn't have it so there's no way he can revive like Kazuya or Jin can." "He looked pretty dead to me," Harada adds. The interviewer, Lu-Hai Liang, attempts to counter that point with Heihachi's attempt to become immortal using Ogre's blood in Tekken 4 and other revivals of the series, but the director sounds pretty convincing that the old man is finally getting his rest. "I don't know how he's not dead, right?" said Murray via TheGamer. ![]() TheGamer recently interviewed both Harada and Tekken producer Michael Murray where they specifically asked the lead devs about the fate of the beloved character. ![]() 9/1/2023 0 Comments Idrive review youtube![]() ![]() One rep was very quick to offer me my money back as I suggested that IDrive might not suit my needs if I can only use this feature with Sync on. I asked if I can use the Cloud Sharing without Sync on because it was taking up the space on my computer (which I did not want). They also didn't seem to understand the IDrive product. I called twice and chatted once with IDrive's support and was met with snarky characters that had rude attitudes toward me. but I'd still like the option of more granularity.Ĭons: My main complaint is customer support. The advantage of this approach is simplicity, the disadvantage is a lack of flexibility. In the same way, all local files/folders are handled as a single backup set, again with no granularity. ![]() The only way to omit one would be to leave it unplugged. My understanding from the FAQ and help files, together with practical use of the system, is that all network/external drives are handled as a single backup set. For example - to set weekly backups for one external drive and daily backups for another. If backups are daily and no more frequent this shouldn't be an issue, but it could well cause problems (or at least confusion) if backups were more frequent.I would like to see more granularity in the backup scheduling. I'm on the other side of the world and it seems nonsensical for me to schedule a 9 am backup on the 10th of November (10/11/22) to find that the system records it as being made at 3 am on 11/10/22. My internet connection is capable of 90-100 MB/s and obviously it wasn't the bottleneck.When I had a minor problem the chat support on their website resolved it in seconds.Ĭons: All timings by the software use PST (Pacific Standard Time) and a US format timestamp. Searching further more I found that my hard drive had errors and I could corrected them.For short and medium transfers my upload speed transfer in Romania was 25-50 MB/s (megaBytes not mbs), but when I transfered 1.4 TB medium transfer speed was only 17MB/s. In a particular backup I spotted that a file wasn't transferred because of an error and when I verified I discovered that file was corrupted. After a job completion you'll receive a report and you can access a detailed log. If a file wasn't completely transferred because interruption, it will be resumed without a problem. I didn't feel the need to read any tutorial and I used the interface at once, from the first glance.I can interrupt the transfer at any time, the queued files or folders will be resumed when I need. Overall: I bought 5TB plan.I'm not a tech guy and for me the interface is very important and iDrive's interface is very intuitive and ease to use. The customer service has been great and it works really, really well. Being able to consolidate all of your information, all of your data, and put it into one place instead of having it scattered everywhere is such a bonus and it's easy. It'll take all of the muss and fuss out of trying to find out where all of your files are, where any important data is, and it's all in one place. You can actually even hand it over to an assistant and they can take care of it. If you are thinking about using IDrive, I really recommend it. It was there, and then I was able to drag everything onto it, and it worked perfectly. I got on the site, I downloaded the drive. I use it every day and all day.Īs a solopreneur and a CEO, I literally have tried so many different backup drives and so many different programs, and IDrive was so easy. To find out where the projects are that I need to work on and even duplicate or triplicate projects that need to be merged. It's like I'm consolidating all of my drives into IDrive and I use it daily to find where my duplicates are so I can de-dupe. ![]() I can either download it or see exactly the stream of which drive it's on and exactly where it's at, so I can find it so easily and then access it and use it or download it if I am somewhere and I need it and I'm not at my computer. I can access my files, I can see where the duplicates are and go in and change them. I have so many other external companies that I've been using that now I have been pulling it all into IDrive. I chose IDrive because it gave me the capability of not only just backing up my computer and my C Drive, but I have four external drives. Getting to my files was an act of, I don't know, is really challenging. Poor customer service, even when I did finally get through to somebody. They need support just to get me to download files. I have used so many other backup drives and either they were too difficult to use, the customer service was really, really lacking. ![]() My name is Sandy, and I am a CEO and I give IDrive a five. ![]() 9/1/2023 0 Comments Untar gz file on windows 7![]() ![]() Specifying mode is the best way to ensure filesystem objects are created with the correct permissions.

When Hollow Knight: Silksong was revealed in 2019, fans immediately set their heart ablaze for the sequel, excited to see how it improves on the original. Team Cherry's original game, Hollow Knight, was a beautiful action-adventure game that controlled seamlessly and featured a world steeped with mystery.

Overall the stages do a nice job of guiding you to your goal, while also encouraging exploration. In addition to collectibles, there are areas for you to find where the camera will pull back to show you more of the surrounding area (and some nice artwork to boot), and Thora will sometimes treat you to some of the Nordic Mythos as you play through the stages. Exploring each stage thoroughly is in your best interest as well, as Thora can find statues of Norse gods that will grant her magic, and apples from the mythical tree, Ithun, which will extend her life energy. The levels themselves are interesting, with lush forests, Dwarven ruins, and a constellation filled sky among some of the places you’ll visit. Gameplay has you guiding Thora through nine stages as you attempt to collect a rune within each stage that will earn you the right to challenge a Jotun. Pair the hand drawn graphics with some atmospheric tunes and nice voice acting, and Jotun does a great job of putting you in the mood to slay some titanic beasts. ![]() Oftentimes, I had to fight the urge to stop playing so I could watch the tiny details in each Jotun’s animation. While it may be hard to tell with some of the smaller enemies, the downright massive Jotun really show off the fluid animation, and this makes the bosses and enemies feel more organic with their movements. It’s a simple story, but one that is done well as you continue to learn more about the events leading up to Thora’s demise as you progress through the game.Įasily the most impressive part of Jotun is the hand drawn animations for Thora and all the enemies she encounters on her quest. Tasked with defeating four Norse elementals known as Jotun, fighting her way through all her foes is the only way Thora can make it into Valhalla, the Norse equivalent of paradise. The story of Jotun focuses on the Viking Thora, as she awakens in the afterlife and discovers she has been given a second chance to win the favor of the gods after her inglorious death at sea had displeased them. With gorgeous visuals and challenging gameplay, Jotun delighted my senses as I fought to impress the gods and earn my way into Valhalla. So when getting ready to play Jotun, a game that draws from Norse mythology created by Indie Studio, Thunder Lotus, my expectations were high. When it comes to storytelling in video games, inspiration from real world mythology is a soft spot of mine. ![]() 9/1/2023 0 Comments Safe agile framework![]() ARTs are considered the heart of SAFe, as they refer to a method of virtual organization to keep teams engaged with a specific organizational objective.
