Log in or register now.The fact that it's also called "assign" instead of "Cages" is also making it hard to remember to actually go into this screen, so for quite a while brain defaults to use Info screen instead of Assign screen even when you have enough cages available for everyone.

Recommendations were made in the report to develop tools to help translators. The report went on to say that despite expenses, machine translation was not likely to match results of human translation in the near future. government commissioned report which concluded that machine translation is more expensive, slower and less accurate than human translation. Such as the ambiguity arising from a single word having multiple meanings.ĪLPAC publishes a U.S. The main argument was that the current methods of the time had no ways of resolving semantic ambiguities whose resolution required having an understanding of the terms being used. A year later, BarHillel wrote a document to point out difficulties in the machine translators. Yehoshua BarHillel was a linguist who traveled around the world visiting the various machine translation centers in order to better understand how they work, and what work they were doing. The system contained 250 words and translated 49 sentences (carefully selected) from Russian to English, mostly in the Chemistry field. New York City – An experiment at Georgetown IBM gave the first public demonstration of machine translation. United States – Warren Weaver of the Rockefeller Foundation presents proposal for machine translation which is based on information theory, successes with breaking code during WWII and speculation about underlying, universal principles of natural language.

![]() Here, my InDesign file is in the same folder as a Links folder that contains all of the images that I'm going to use in Data Merge. I do have to get each path separately but it's a much shorter path. So yes, the png file is five folders deep on iCloud. This should prompt a dropdown menu from which you should select “From file” and then “From folder. Remember, here's my absolute path, here are my relative paths, and what this notation here really means is InDesign. Here is the file path of a png file I want to merge into an InDesign document. To import image directories in excel, go to the data tab at the top of the page and press the “Get Data” button. Additionally, do not have your datasource file saved to this directory yet, as it will also be imported which could misorder the images as well. Even if you have an alphabetized list of names, if just one photo associated with a name is missing, then all the names listed after will be paired with the wrong image. If you do intend on importing image data into excel, I would recommend doing it before adding any other information as images are always imported in alphabetical order. It is possible within Excel to import the file names and directories from a folder, which may be convenient if you’re working with lots of images. Obviously though, this will vary depending on where the files are saved. (C:\Users\\Documents\Images\john-smith.jpg). I tried to use relative and absolute paths and still no joy. Next, open the Data Merge panel (Window > Utilities > Data Merge), choose Select Data Source from the panel menu, and choose that CSV file (it’s in the same folder as the images you want to import). ![]() If your image files are stored in such a way that this isn’t possible, then you can put the full directory which would likely look something like I try a catalog available, but could not get the images to import through the fusion of data. The path describes where InDesign can find those images what folder they’re in. That way, simply putting the file name and extension will find the correct file (john-smith.jpg). ![]() For the sake of simplicity, I’d recommend placing your datasource within the folder containing all your images. InDesign searches file paths relative to the location of the datasource file, which in this case is our excel document. ![]() ![]() ![]() I know customer service dies a LONG time ago, but this is just plain ridiculous! It's MY computer, not Microsoft's. We don't want live icons (blocky icons that look terrible) slowing down our start menu. We don't want to pay a yearly subscription to play solitare and minesweeper. We don't want to have our PC turned into a brick when the internet goes down. We don't want Windows going full-on tyrant and taking away our ability to control updates. We don't want your flat, lifeless GUI that looks like it was designed by a 3-year old. We don't want windowless apps (I always had to restart my PC any time a window-less app started, often without even my consent, because I couldn't figure out how to turn those gosh-aweful things off back during the year I tried to endure Windows 8.1 on my laptop - thankfully never my main PC!). Overall Opinion: Windows 10 is horrible! I hate it with a burning passion! (Thanksfully, I Googled how to disable GWX long before it malware-hijacked my computer like so many other pour souls who can't afford to have Windows 7 reinstalled.) Apparently, Microsoft doesn't care about giving desktop users an experience that is good for them. As of early January 2021 it's hard to perceive Microsoft's methods as any other than scam and the retail price of Windows 10 as price gauging. How little Microsoft thinks of it's customers get's clear when having a deeper look into Microsoft's over bloated and mostly text based support efforts. In fact, setting up custom folders within the Protected Folders option can lead to other essential functions failing, such as installing software, or playing games.Ĭons: Windows 10 is loaded with problems lurking under the surface, the most common unpleasant situations Windows 10 users encounter on a frequent basis, is probably related to the Windows 10 activation. The Protected Folder option would be interesting for enhanced tempering protection, but unfortunately doesn't work on all folders that a user might like to see protected. ![]() Pros: Microsoft managed to make Windows 10 more graphical appealing in compare to it's predecessors. ![]() Installing a new mouse cursor requires to make use of a bothersome Interface first introduced in Windows 98 Windows 10 Product keys are overprized and Microsoft doesn't offer anything of value in return for the vast amounts of user data that are collected through Windows 10 and the MS Edge browser including unique biometric user data that enables targeted ads far beyond a users home, office space, or school. Microsoft doesn't care to evolve the Windows 10 activation process and rather likes to fool it's users with arbitrary error codes that are subtle and often impossible to resolve without purchasing a new Windows 10 Product Key. ![]() On top Windows 10 allows Microsoft to collect and capitalize on all sorts of user data, but there is very little support coming from Microsoft in return. Overall Opinion: Upgrading, or replacing a single component of an existing computer very often causes Windows 10 to deactivate and require the user to buy a new Product Key from Microsoft, or one of their certified partners. ![]() ![]() ![]() The story features the use of psychic powers, conducted from the perspective of the player, including telekinesis, pyrokinesis, and clairvoyance. Parents: According to the ESRB, this game’s rating is E10+, and contains fantasy violence. Rating: 7.5 out of 10ĭisclosures: This game was developed and published by Double Fine Productions. It is currently available on PlayStation VR. This copy of the game was obtained via publisher and was reviewed on the PS4. Approximately 2 hours of play were devoted to the single-player mode, and the game was completed. This may sour some post- RE7 folks who are looking for more substantial experiences fully playable in VR, but Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin doesn’t do much to advance that prospect.Īll the same, those who can get past the short playtime and lack of ideas disrupting the swath of ‘lite’ games currently populating the VR scene will find Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin to be a rousing affirmation of Double Fine’s greatest strengths - using character and charm to do the heavy lifting in the absence of innovation. There’s also not much replayability, leaving it less “dense” with content than comparable “experiences” like Batman: Arkham VR. At its suggested price the game is quite short, with the campaign lasting just a couple of hours and ending just as it manages to draw players in. Perhaps what’s most questionable about Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin pertains to the value proposition. In a limited way, some sequences from Rhombus of Ruin feel like a full realization of what Double Fine could only partially accomplish with their original (and somewhat mundane) action-platformer. The studio also appears to try a number of visual gags tied to VR’s capacity for immersion and scale, allowing players to look up at gigantic people or down from the perspective of some mighty creature. Double Fine’s gift for wit and writing shines through in the dialog and characterization,and the Jhonen Vasquez-esque art style translates well into the technical limitations of VR by emphasizing some of the sight and perception tricks Double Fine plays with. Players who know these characters and have at least some familiarity with Psychonauts will get the most out of taking the plunge with Rhombus of Ruin, but the game does do a credible job of standing alone, or at least as being sort of a hype piece for the “real” Psychonauts sequel. After all, moving things with one’s own mind would result in one never needing to get up. This works well as a design conceit, as the seated calibration is less prone to sickening players, and also fits in with the psychic-powered motif. The game goes out of its way to emphasize that Rhombus of Ruin is played from a seated position, and arranges things so that Raz needn’t get up from his chair to get the job done. The PS Move motion controllers are not supported. Their destination? The Rhombus of Ruin, a region of mystery not unlike the Bermuda Triangle. Along the way, Raz will find puzzles to solve, tasks to perform, and perils to avoid using a wide array of psychic powers, including telekinesis, pyrokinesis, clairvoyance, and “brain poking”.Īll of the above is done using the PlayStation VR headset and standard controller. Alongside him and Lili are fellow squaddies (and Psychonauts alumni) Sasha Nein, Millia Vodello, and Coach Oleander. Protagonist Razputin “Raz” Aquato has just been commissioned as a Psychonaut (a psychic secret agent) and has gone jetting off on his first mission to rescue the father of his squadmate, Lili Zanotto. Narratively, the game serves as a bridge of sorts, beginning minutes after the cliffhanger ending of Psychonauts. Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin is at its best when viewed as something approximating a playable teaser for the still-in-development Psychonauts 2. The end result turns out about as well as could be expected of a Virtual Reality debut title. Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin aims to be a balm to soothe that ache, while also being the studio’s first leap into the VR pond. ![]() This brought much wailing and gnashing of teeth from fans, and more than a decade would pass without any clear prospects for a continuation. That work utterly charmed with its wacky characters and offbeat sense of humor, only to end on a cliffhanger. ![]() The thrill of that kind of power lies at the center of Double Fine’s Psychonauts, a classic PS2-era adventure (and also the company’s debut title). Who wouldn’t want to be able to do things with the power of their mind? Psychic powers would be a great thing to have. WTF “These shiny pages are mounting a heavy assault on my classified areas!” LOW Isn’t that much different from other VR “experiences”. HIGH Oozes creativity from every irreverent pore. ![]() |
