11/25/2023 0 Comments Fashion nova return money back![]() This is the second case the FTC has brought against Fashion Nova in recent years. In addition, the FTC has released new guidance for online retailers and review platforms to educate them on the agency’s key principles for collecting and publishing customer reviews in ways that do not mislead consumers. The FTC also announced that it is sending letters to 10 companies offering review management services, placing them on notice that avoiding the collection or publication of negative reviews violates the FTC Act. Suppressing a product’s negative reviews deprives consumers of potentially useful information and artificially inflates the product’s average star rating. But from late-2015 until November 2019, Fashion Nova never approved or posted the hundreds of thousands of lower-starred, more negative reviews. “Fashion Nova is being held accountable for these practices, and other firms should take note.”Īccording to the FTC's complaint, Fashion Nova used a third-party online product review management interface to automatically post four- and five-star reviews to its website and hold lower-starred reviews for the company’s approval. “Deceptive review practices cheat consumers, undercut honest businesses, and pollute online commerce,” said Samuel Levine, Director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. ![]() The case is the FTC’s first involving a company’s efforts to conceal negative customer reviews. The FTC alleged in a complaint that the California-based retailer, which primarily sells its “fast fashion” products online, misrepresented that the product reviews on its website reflected the views of all purchasers who submitted reviews, when in fact it suppressed reviews with ratings lower than four stars out of five. Online fashion retailer Fashion Nova, LLC will be prohibited from suppressing customer reviews of its products and required to pay $4.2 million to settle Federal Trade Commission allegations that the company blocked negative reviews of its products from being posted to its website.

11/25/2023 0 Comments War games wwe 2k23![]() From a gameplay standpoint, it also adds some variety to the game mode instead of just playing one character the entire time, like with Rey Mysterio in WWE 2K22's Showcase mode. However, Visual Concepts said Cena was pretty excited about it and is a humble guy, so showing his losses to emphasize his "Never Give Up" mantra worked well. ![]() It's hard to imagine how the 4v4 mode makes WarGames even more chaotic, but it almost certainly will.Īs far as John Cena's 2K Showcase mode goes, it was a bit surprising to learn with its initial announcement that fans wouldn't play John Cena, but his opponents. Overall, though, the drawbacks we encountered during this match type were not a huge deal, and it definitely didn't hold the fun back. ![]() There were also times when the wrestling seemed to suffer slightly, as it was difficult to perform a charged finisher or conduct a spear as Edge. For example, the camera can be pulled back pretty far when someone is entering and WWE 2K23 wrestlers are in both rings, sometimes making prompts a little hard to see. While this seems true and the match fundamentally works, that chaos does have a few drawbacks. WarGames is a chaotic match type, one that Visual Concepts said required some adjustments to the AI to take advantage of both rings. The double rings add a nice "management" element to the gameplay, and regardless of how many times we played it, it was a lot of fun. This means players must keep an eye on what's happening in both rings, and they can switch between members of the team to help out where necessary. Once every competitor is within the cage, players must remain aware of all submissions, pinfalls, and the like, as that's all it takes to win or lose. Players can take that advantage, give it to the opposing team, or allow it to be random, but this quickly makes the match feel like a handicap match that turns into a tag team match that turns into a 3v2 handicap match and so on, bringing a lot of chaos into the ring. One WWE 2K23 team has an advantage in WarGames, meaning the order by which they enter the ring. However, other players and AI wrestlers can grab weapons from under the ring before entering it, adding some serious Extreme Rules vibes. ![]() At first, the match plays a lot like a Steel Cage match just with two rings, as the existence of the steel cage allows for some great high-flying action. The match doesn't officially begin until every competitor is in the ring, as the first two enter the ring and everyone else enters at alternative intervals thereafter, meaning players cannot get an early victory. For those unfamiliar, WarGames is a 3v3 or 4v4 (we were only able to play 3v3 matches) match type that sees two rings surrounded by a steel cage. WWE 2K23's WarGames is a chaotic new addition, one that is tons of fun but not without its challenges. RELATED: WWE 2K23 Reveals Bad Bunny Pre-Order Bonus and Special Editions All in all, WWE 2K23 seems to continue building on the solid structure laid out by WWE 2K22, which bodes well for the franchise's continued growth in the future. Game Rant was recently able to spend a few hours playing an in-development build of WWE 2K23 and during that time, we were able to complete two matches of John Cena's 2K Showcase, play several matches of WarGames, play a few 10-man Royal Rumble matches as well as some one-on-one matches, and check out some of the changes like the new pinning system. Developer Visual Concepts is adding the highly requested WarGames match type, making major adjustments like adding multiple seasons to MyGM Mode, and featuring a 2K Showcase mode about a Superstar's failures-that is, some of John Cena's toughest fights in his career. WWE 2K23 is set to release on March 17, and it is bringing with it several improvements. 11/25/2023 0 Comments Blockbench minecraft models off axisthat is where the face of a character or the door of a closet would be). In the image below, you can see an example of an unwrapped UV map (blue = north, yellow = south, pink = west, green = east, white = top, grey = bottom). In box UV mapping, the map of the elements is unwrapped automatically and works for all faces by default. In per-face UV mapping, Blockbench offers the Auto UV feature, which correctly scales the mapping of a face. that the texture does not get squashed or stretched. It is very important that the ratio of pixels is preserved on the model as well, i.e. In Minecraft, a pixel on the texture corresponds to a pixel on the model (1 unit of scale in Blockbench). The UV map defines how a texture is applied to the model. In the Minecraft art style, this solution is preferable to using many small elements to depict the same object/parts of an object. Small parts of an object can be depicted by a single large element with certain pixels strategically being fully transparent. Minecraft models utilize planes (elements with only 2 faces) and transparency, often together. Examples of this principle can be found throughout the game (barrel, cake, log, grindstone, pumpkin, melon, cocoa pod.). For example, rotating elements next to each other in order to form a curve does not conform with the Minecraft aesthetic.Ī spherical or cylindrical object would be translated into a single element. Rotated elements can be found in many Minecraft models, but their use needs to be justified. Rotating an element to create a slant instead is preferable. ![]() Therefore, depicting slants and curves as stairs needs to be avoided. However, simplifying shapes shouldn't go too far, to the point where they are no longer recognizable. It should always be a goal to keep the element count as low as possible while still accurately depicting the object. The overall shape of an object should be defined by the model and most of the detail by the texture. Minecraft's art style is founded in simplicity. It contains materials on how to properly use Blockbench and take full advantage of its features. If you plan to create Minecraft art and aren't fully familiar with the technical aspects of it, reading Blockbench Overview & Tips is highly recommended. ![]() Please keep in mind that not all of the mentioned principles apply universally to non-vanilla art styles or to art unrelated to Minecraft. It is intended to help you create models and textures that fit right into the vanilla game and to unify the terminology for the community to give more efficient and constructive feedback.

A Chesto Berry can be used alongside Rest for the same reasons, with the added benefit of curing status. An Iapapa Berry can be used in order to give Azumarill more instant recovery, enabling it to take strong hits better. Leftovers is the item of choice because it increases Azumarill's longevity, especially when combined with Protect, and passive recovery is particularly important given its lack of reliable recovery. A spread of 252 HP / 96 Def / 132 SpD / 28 Spe with a Bold nature prevents a 2HKO from Kartana's Smart Strike and a 3HKO from Celesteela's Heavy Slam, but this spread misses out on a lot of special bulk, making it a shakier Greninja counter. However, Azumarill already handles the former quite well, especially if running HP Fire, while the latter two aren't particularly common. Physical bulk can be used in order to more easily switch into Kartana, Mega Charizard X, and Weavile. It also helps against Mega Charizard Y, Heatran, and Blacephalon. The rest is placed in special bulk in order to easily switch into Volcarona and Battle Bond Greninja, which are key threats that Azumarill's typing enables it to check. However, it is generally inferior to Toxic in terms of utility.Ģ8 Speed EVs enable Azumarill to outspeed Celesteela, potentially getting an emergency Perish Song, Rest, or Knock Off off against it before being hit by Heavy Slam. It can also remove the offensive items of Pokemon Azumarill is trapping so that it takes less damage from their attacks. Knock Off is also a decent option that cripples the likes of Celesteela and can remove Skarmory's Shed Shell so that it can be trapped. Rest can be used in order to give Azumarill instant recovery and a way to heal status however, it renders Azumarill extremely vulnerable until it wakes up, at which point it is likely to be very low on health again. However, Hidden Power Fire can be used instead in order to guarantee an OHKO on Kartana, which can otherwise break past Azumarill if it runs Smart Strike and can deal massive damage to whatever is sent in against it on the last turn of Perish Song. Toxic helps cripple Pokemon that may switch into Azumarill in order to force it out, such as Tapu Koko and Kyurem-B. Additionally, it can scout Choice item users such as Tapu Koko, Tapu Lele, and Landorus-T, as well as Z-Moves such as Hydro Vortex from Greninja and Corkscrew Crash from Heatran. It's also very useful for gaining extra Leftovers recovery as well as racking up chip Whirlpool and Toxic damage against Pokemon that can force Azumarill out. Protect is essential in order to use up Perish Song turns in order to trap Pokemon more effectively. It also deals chip damage, which can be useful for wearing down Pokemon that can force it out. ![]() Whirlpool is used in order to prevent opposing Pokemon from switching out, thus guaranteeing that Perish Song will take them out as long as Azumarill can survive until its last turn. Perish Song enables Azumarill to permanently remove opposing Pokemon and neuter setup sweepers by forcing them to switch out. 11/24/2023 0 Comments Metal alchemist tattoosThe people of Ishval had no choice but to accept the help of an outcast. When the Ishval Civil War occurred, he returned to offer his knowledge of Philosopher's Stone to end the war. Scar's brother in the 2003 anime after his failed transmutation.Īgainst the teachings of Ishvala. Shortly after his failed transmutation, he was exiled by his people since alchemy was considered taboo and A white "scar" can be seen around this general area during a flashback of the Ishval massacre. It is unclear what Scar's brother sacrificed for the transmutation, due to his apparently complete body, but if one assumes that the blood seen on his clothes immediately after the transmutation is his own, it is possible that he lost either some of his internal organs or his genitalia, which could be connected to the 'love' part of the transmutation (this is the only known attempt to resurrect a lover, rather than a family member). The transmutation failed, leading to the birth of the homunculus Lust. In the 2003 Fullmetal Alchemist anime, Scar's older brother attempted human transmutation in order to revive the woman whom both he and his brother loved. Scar's brother prior to his alchemic experimentation, with his lover. His notes are what reveal to the main characters what the modified country-wide human transmutation circle looks like, as well as the Alkahestric Reverse. Scar goes on to hide his brother's research notes in a small cabin near Briggs. He shields Scar from the explosion resulting from Kimblee's attack, then gives Scar his right arm in order to save his life, and subsequently dies. Kimblee arrives, he gives his research notes to his brother (who later comes to be known as Scar) for safe keeping, saying that a warrior priest is more likely to survive than a book worm. During this time, he tattoos both of his arms with a strange combination of Xingese Alkahestry and Amestrian Alchemy the left being primarily reconstruction, and the right, deconstruction. He is the first to discover that something is strange about Amestris' alchemy. ![]() Scar's Brother first appears in Chapter 58: The Footsteps of Ruin, researching Amestrian and Xingese Alchemy in the hopes that he will be able to help in the fight against the state alchemists. Scar's right arm with tattooed transmutation array. He also loved his brother dearly, evident by the fact that he sacrificed himself to shield Scar and gave Scar his right arm. He once told his brother Scar that Scar would make a better monk than him because he was a better fighter and Scar's brother never liked fighting, implying he was a pacifist. Marcoh having trouble and it took a chance accident to realize the hidden meaning behind his notes. ![]() His notes were extremely hard to decipher as well, with even Dr. His intelligence was so great he was able to learn and discover the unnatural flow of alchemy in Amestris and develop a reverse transmutation circle to fix it, an amazing feat considering he had never been to Amestris or known of the homunculi. He was almost always seen reading books and writing notes, and was quite diligent in his studies. A kind man and an excellent scholar, he was enthralled with learning about alchemy and later alkahestry. 11/24/2023 0 Comments Earthtime dot org![]() In response to such often-voiced concerns, the aviation industry has set itself tough targets on emissions reduction, developed jointly by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association and the International Business Aviation Council. It's time the world woke up to the fact that we can't keep flying as if there's no tomorrow. That's a scary prospect given that the climate damage from aviation is twice that of CO2 alone. Jean Leston, its Acting Head of Transport Policy, said: "ICAO's latest growth figures show that aviation is on track to become a major producer of CO2 emissions. The organisation, which is based in Montreal, Canada, estimates that the figure will rise 6.2 per cent in 2012 and 6.1 per cent in 2013.Īccording to the ICAO, the increases indicate a strengthening global economy but environmental campaigners are concerned that it will increase greenhouse gas emissions.Īmong those greeting the statistics with concern is environmental pressure group WWF-UK. And, during this time, a lot of time outside the spaceship passes.Global air traffic is expected to grow by 5.3 per cent this year, according to officials at the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO). In fact, in the process of tremendous deceleration and acceleration, the spaceship must experience a significant gravitational acceleration as if it were near a black hole. (Same as the spaceship's time zone)įrom an astronaut's point of view, only the speed seems to have changed, but in reality, because the axis of the coordinate system changes, time jumps on Earth by several years. The dotted line is the x-axis of the spacecraft's coordinate system. In this process, the Minkowski spacetime axis is transformed as follows. To return to Earth, the spaceship must change direction, and deceleration and acceleration occur in the process of changing direction. This is because each observes the other through their coordinate system. However, from the astronaut's point of view, Earth's time flows slowly. The two figures are the same motion only the coordinate system is observed differently.įrom the earthman's point of view, the spacecraft's time passes slowly. The figure above shows a spacecraft moving away from Earth at 0.6 times the speed of light. For the speed of light to be the same, the axes of the coordinate system can be curved or tilted.Ĭonsider the case where the spaceship does not come back but only moves away.Īs mentioned earlier, observers observe objects around them based on their respective coordinate systems.The speed of light is the same in any coordinate system.Observers observe objects around them based on their own coordinate system.When introducing a Minkowski space, it is important to keep the following in mind: Please refer to the following link for more information on Minkowski spacetime. The twin paradox can be solved with Minkowski spacetime. From an astronaut's point of view, the Earth is moving away from the spaceship at a very high rate.So the earthman will be older than the astronaut. In other words, since the astronaut's position has changed, the astronaut's time flows slowly. From the earthman's point of view, the Earth is stationary.If twins met each other in 10 years, who would be older? The spaceship will return to Earth in 10 years.Spaceships travel at speeds comparable to light.For convenience, we will call them 'earthman' and 'astronaut.' One of the twins stays on Earth, and the other leaves Earth in a spaceship.The Twin Paradox goes something like this: (Contents vary depending on the media.)

Delta copying assumes that destination file remains unmodified between the runs. If there's ever a mismatch, the file is re-copied in full.Ģ. In case when no block-level changes are detected in a file, this hash is verified to match its version from the previous run. The risk of this event is mitigated by using two separate checksums for each block, both of which are stored in a hash file.Īdditionally, Bvckup 2 computes a full-file checksum using 3rd digest algorithm. The last thing we want is to skip a modified block only because it happened to have the exact same hash as its previous version. But what of them caveats, you wonder? Indeed.ġ. Otherwise, it is written out and the saved hash is updated to its new value.Įasy-peasy. If they match (* see below), then a block is assumed to be unchanged and it is skipped over. On the next copy, as the app goes through the source file block by block, it re-computes the hashes and compares them to the saved versions. When a file is first copied, the app splits it into equally-sized blocks, computes a hash for each block and then stores these hashes locally. No rsync for you.īvckup 2 and its older brother Bvckup take a different approach. Meaning, if your NAS doesn't support rsync, then that's it. The biggest minus of rsync is that you need to have a copy of rsync running on the receiving end. The biggest plus of rsync is that all you need is just two copies of a file and then it can one make look like another, expeditiously. There's quite a bit more to its algorithm, because after all it was Tridge's PhD thesis :) That's a much simplified version of rsync. When checksums don't match, then the source process forwards respective block to the destination process, which merges it into the destination file. Naturally, there is more than one way to approach this matter.Ī widely-used rsync tool uses two cooperating processes - one at the source and another at destination - which both read their own copy of a file, block by block, and talk to each other to compare block checksums. So it only makes sense to try and eliminate these redundant writes, and that's exactly what delta copying is about. If we are then to make a small change to the source file and repeat the copying, the vast majority of data we'll be writing will be exactly the same as what's already on the disk. When no copy of a file exists at destination we have no option by to read every byte of the source file and then write them all into backup copy. This post has been now reworked into a proper article that explains things at a bit greater depth - ĭelta copying is an optimized way of copying a file when an older version of the same file already exists at destination. |
