A "Text" tile which allows you to type text onto a block, kind of like the "Speak" tile. Models with recorded sounds cannot be sold in stores, but they can be heard in your worlds.

This lets builders pay for the design without having to buy more of the blocks (which is particularly useful to players who have the Blocksworld Premium sets). In addition, I would like to point out a few things that I would wish for Blocksworld to do (although I'm not too sure if this is actually gonna happen or not), with build mode. We here at Blocksworld have a question for you Would you like to be able to buy and sell incomplete models To clarify: we recently released the ability to buy the blueprints of models. It will feature at least 10 brand new prehistoric animals added to the cast! This reboot is going to have at least 8 episodes in the form of worlds.

I can't believe Blocksworld had been dormant for almost 3 years! And something's happening for its 10th anniversary, a REVIVAL. Recently, the Blocksworld Instagram and Twitter pages posted something, which proves that Fortell Games actually DID acquire them.

![]() macOS and APFS don’t like being short of space.to be able to continue to update macOS Ventura, a minimum disk size of 50 GB with at least 25 GB free is wise.to be more comfortable, the smallest disk (virtual or physical) to accommodate that update is 40 GB.updating from 13.0 to 13.1 requires a minimum of 14 GB free space in the boot volume group.By the time that we reach 13.6 next summer, even that 40 GB disk with 22 GB of free space in 13.0 could well have lost sufficient free space to make further updates tight for free space. ![]() Once happily running macOS 13.1, free space was around 0.5 GB less than it had been in 13.0. Updating to 13.1 also has a long-term cost in terms of free space. To have any degree of comfort, make that a 40 GB disk with at least 20 GB free. In practice, even for the modest needs of a basic Ventura 13.0 installation in a VM, the smallest disk size you’ll be able to update from 13.0 to 13.1 is 33 GB, providing at least 14 GB of free space. So depending on when you run it, the installer might claim it needs 12.97 GB, 13.22 GB, or 13.56 GB of free disk space, but really wants around 14 GB. ![]() No update went horribly wrong because it failed somewhere in the middle. The good news is that each of the updates either worked fully and correctly, or was cancelled by Software Update before downloading had started. The second attempt failed with an indicated free space of 13.22 GB, this time with the reason that “an additional 340.9 MB of space is needed to install on this disk.” I don’t understand why that message went on to advise me to check my Internet connection either, given that it was Software Update that cancelled the download. ![]() I then had two failures on 32 GB boot disks, the first paradoxically complaining that “updating requires 13.22 GB of disk space” when Disk Utility had just assured me that there was 13.32 GB available. I was foolish enough to believe that, so in the next run I tried a boot disk size of 32 GB, providing 13.32 GB of free disk space, as Disk Utility assured me. That was cancelled before it began, with the message that “updating requires 12.97 GB of disk space”. With a VM boot disk of 30 GB, there was only 11.19 GB of free space before downloading the update. FailuresĪll three failed updates were on VM boot disks of 30 and 32 GB total size, but the error messages given weren’t entirely helpful or consistent. The smallest VM boot disk that I was able to get to update to macOS 13.1 was 33 GB in total size, and provided 14.42 GB of free space for the download and update. Over the range of 30-40 GB total VM boot disk sizes that I tested, free space therefore ranged from 11.19-21.91 GB. Each VM boot disk lost a further 2.95-3.68 GB, presumably in hidden containers. Space taken by the SSV ranged from 8.83-10.14 GB, but that was offset by differences in the “other volumes”, making me suspicious that Disk Utility was still struggling with arithmetic. Successesįor a basic Ventura 13.0 system, the typical total space taken on disk by the boot volume group is around 15.14 GB, although variation in individual volumes is greater. Although the details are a bit noisier, the numbers work out reasonably consistent. It appears the only way to discover how much space is required is by trial and error, with a series of Virtual Machines. The download itself consistently declares that it’s 2.53 GB at least that’s a start, if not a particularly helpful one. Although that eventually links to advice on how to free up disk space when the update fails because there’s insufficient free space, nowhere can I see any figures indicating what is sufficient. The obvious place to check first is Apple’s support information about the 13.x updates. It seems a fair and simple question, and an important for many users: how much free space do you need on your Mac’s startup volume to be able to update macOS Ventura, say from 13.0 to 13.1? ![]() Meet Sam, Samsung’s newest virtual assistant rendered by Lightfarm studios, a multi-national creative studio specializing in CGI, Animation, and the likes.

I am disappointing because the stylist was very pleasant but if she can't even do a blow-out and tone hair properly, I won't return. I personally don't like stylists who compromise hair health for speedy work. ![]() I think flat irons are very damaging for the hair, especially after bleaching or highlighting hair.Īfter paying $200, I am now searching for another stylist to fix the color and, cut my hair even more to fix the messy cut (I already lost 3-4 inches and may have to cut it shoulder length now. I think the stylist did not even want to attempt a proper blow-out because she was was not willing to do the work and take the time. I have wavy hair but at home, I get silky & shiny straight results with a regular roundbrush and blowdrier on damp/semi wet hair in 30 minutes. I don't use flat irons on my hair because it dries it and damages immensely. Instead of a blow out, stylist used a flat iron very quickly missing a bunch of strands. In addition, I found some uneven layers caused by thinning shears (I did not ask for layers, and stylist did not ask my permission to thin strands). When I got home, I had to cut a long strand that had been missed. Orange brown hair (instead of a cool brown). The hair appointment I requested was for: all over color, haircut, and blow-out. However, I think that she lacked cutting technique, color expertise, and hair care treatment knowledge. Luckily, the stylist that helped me (initials: A.R) was very pleasant and I really liked her. I should have walked out, but I did not (big mistake). ![]() When I walked in, I was not greeted, but asked very unpleasantly if I had an appointment by a stylist which I think is the owner.

Another bug is that some files are hidden. First issue is that when pressing the download button for multiple videos in a row some of the videos are not queued properly for download and are skipped over leading to them not appearing within the VLC library. Under the network tab when downloading from a media server there are issues regarding the reliability of videos downloading as well as some files become hidden after downloading.

Note that this recipe used the "sanding" technique - meaning that we mixed cold butter and flour first before adding the Egg. You are now ready for part 2 of your Berry Custard Tart! Remove from the oven and leave to cool down completely.Blind bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until fully baked.While it is pre-heating, place your filled pastry rings (or tins) in the freezer. Alternatively, you could use a muffin pan to make mini tarts with these mini Tartlet Shells. See this great video on how to "foncer" (line) tartlet rings if needed. Line your pastry rings - I used 10 cm / 4 inch Perforated Pastry Rings - and prick the bottom with a small fork.Place in the fridge to rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Place the pastry dough between two sheets of lightly floured Baking Paper and roll into the desired thickness.Beat it in for a few seconds only, or until the dough starts to come together. Beat the Egg in a small separate bowl and add it to the rest of the ingredients.The texture should be crumbly, thick sand-like. With the paddle attachment of your mixer on, turn on low to medium speed to mix all of the ingredients together. Add the Butter at room temperature and cut into small cubes. Place all the Dry Ingredients in the bowl of my mixer.Here is how I make my Sweet Shortcrust Pastry: The most important thing is to give your pastry plenty of time to rest and chill, every time you handle it.

ACDSee Pro's development team is based out of Victoria, British Columbia and was originally led by Jon McEwan, and more recently by Nels Anvik, who oversaw ACDSee Pro 2.5 through to Pro 5.

The wizard stolled away, leaving the children captivated. And most importantly, they were not to tell anyone their wish. He was connecting their wish to the stone, he explained. Then, one at a time, he touched his magic wand to their heads first and then to the stone in their hand. He told them it was a wishing stone and that they were to think of a wish. Then, he placed a shiny stone in their palms. He directed each child to hold out their hand. Shortly after getting the kids freshly squeezed lemonade, they were stopped by a tall wizard with a long gray beard. The kids enjoyed following along with the crowd, clapping to the music. A lady, who appeared to be naked except for the thin leather pieces tied around her waist to make a skirt and around her chest to make a top, walked around with a basket of the musicians’ CD’s for sale. The guy with the bagpipe wore a kilt, leather straps, had long hair, a beard and his face was streaked with blue paint straight out of Braveheart. There were three men playing instruments, two of them held a large drum each and the other was a bagpipe player. After talking with the mermaids and playing on the pirate ship, we followed the enchanting sound of a bagpipe and found ourselves on a bench in front of a stage. We were delighted to see the large elephant casual stroll through the fair on his way to the tent. There is also a fairyland in the woods, a butterfly garden and a c ircus tent. For children there is a Pirates’ landing filled with wooden pirate ship playgrounds, live mermaids in a pool, and a pirate ship fun house. My other daughter would choose to purchase a wooden sword and shield, which I then needed to buy her younger brother a wooden sword as well so he could defend himself in the wagon!įor adults, there are plenty of interesting shops, live shows and demonstrations, and a nice variety of food. Throughout the course of the day, my oldest would buy a set of blue horns to wear on her head, making her look like a creature from Narnia. My daughters each brought twenty dollars from their piggy banks. There are plenty of options for fair visitors to purchase or rent costumes and accessories to become part of this land. The Medieval Fair is full of merchants and peddlers, barbarians, pirates, mermaids, fairies, spirit folk, warlords, Vikings and Celts, all in full costume and character and accent. “And don’t miss the live chess game at 3!” he said as we continue on. Their costumes were brilliantly colorful and detailed with jewels and bells and their faces matched with paint. Then, we came upon a couple of Jesters who encouraged us to come see their show at one of the stages later that day. I took a quick picture of my daughter standing in front of a wall of swords and got the heck out of there before I would be obligated to buy a newly broken weapon or rush my kid to the emergency room. The shop was full of swords, axes, flails, spears, armor and shields. I would have loved to spend more time examining these authentic pieces had it not been for the extra thirty tiny fingers I brought in with me. “You must be 18 to touch the weapons!” I hear a voice say as I notice my kids have run in and already began touching all the sharp knives. The first stop on the entrance road was medieval weaponry. Let’s move on kids. It was all in good fun it just took me a few minutes to adjust to the new renaissance environment. “Oh no,” I thought, we were already part of this new world. A few comments were made to my children, referring to me as their slave since I was pulling them in a wagon. I tried not to make eye contact with any of these “characters” because I was not yet ready to engage in this fantasy land. A couple other people had their wrists tied with a rope and were being led by their owners. They were begging the incoming guests to pay the price to free them. On the other side of the road were a bunch of peasants and serfs tied by their wrists to a tall pole. Adjacent to the musicians stood a girl on stilts. In a gazebo, a group of people were playing a variety of acoustic instruments. Immediately upon entering there was activity all around. A character greeted me, “How do you do, my lady?” Towing my two youngest kids in a wagon behind me we approached the entrance the face of a castle where noblemen were standing in a tower with goblets in their hands bantering with the incoming visitors. After driving down a dirt road into the woods, we came to a large field to park our car and enter the fair grounds. My oldest daughter wore her long flowing blue sparkly skirt and my other daughter wore her pirate hat. I escaped with my kids to the Great Lakes Medieval Faire and Marketplace last weekend. |
