![]() I am misting twice a day and there is plenty of humidity but notice that the echinodorus's are starting to brown up. quadricostatus, rotala rotundafolia, rotala macandra, bacopa carolina, pogostemon erectum and one of the ludwigia's (forget which one). In addition to the HC, I am trying out ech. As I am growing in my HC, I am experimenting with other plants that seem to be suitable for emersed growing. I am assuming the main drawback for this would be algae but would hope a final 'dryout' prior to the final tank fill would help kill off the algae.Ģ. This would keep the HC emersed which would hopefully lead to faster fill in of the HC. Is there a method that anyone has tried where you submerse it just enough to cover the HC and then drain and repeat maybe once a week or so. I believe I read somewhere that HC grows faster submersed than emersed. I am trying the DSM for a few plants in a 120G with HC being the main focus but experimenting with a few others. I have had speciments throw leaves out of the top of the tank with no issue, but they dry out after a bit w/o the required humidity at that height. However, I have ONLY grown them submersed, so what do I know lol I would recommend keeping them at least very wet, and not allow them to dry out. The two names are interchangeable, though the former is more. You may also find it called Leptochilus pteropus. It is scientifically known as Microsorum pteropus, and is sold under this name. Java Fern turning brown is a common issue, and we'll address that in this guide. Also the growing tips are from the rhizome, so it is vital it is not damaged or dried out.that being said, splitting a healthy rhizome is a great way to create new plants.īoth are grown emersed in nurseries. Java Fern is an incredibly popular freshwater aquarium plant, known and loved for its stunning looks and ease of care. The rhizome on these plants is what supports it in lean times and stores nutrients. It will grow in gravel as well though, but looks better on wood and stones. I have found anubias does better IME when placed on roots and such. I would recommend wood or rock as opposed to just the gravel. Again, I would say as long as the rhizome remains saturated you should be okay. I doubt the moss will recover, but try keeping the light on for only 3 to 4 hours a day. Hopefully the rest of the green will start to grow soon. But the java moss is looking pretty dead. ![]() We do the opposite of what it normally does I think.Ģ). To be honest with you, I wouldnt worry about the java fern. It is found at the edges of waterfalls, pools, etc where it is not submerged normally in nature. ![]() When creating an account in game, you don’t have to enter a password and are allowed to remain logged in for a certain amount of time.

Tencent Kandian combines content from previous platforms QQ Kandian, Tiantian Kuaibao, and QQ Browser’s news feed.Īfter the overhaul, Tencent Kandian now provides its users with a mix of content including articles, pictures, videos, live streaming, and columns from Tencent’s ecosystem of apps and platforms. Tencent Kandian is currently available on WeChat, messaging tool QQ and QQ Browser. China's dominant messaging app, Tencent Holdings' Weixin, known as WeChat outside the country, said on Thursday that average daily active users for its mini programs hit 450 million in 2021. Moreover, Tencent has also launched two standalone apps, news aggregator Kandian Kuaibao, and Kandian Video, in addition to a mini program for WeChat dubbed Kandian Livestreaming. With the move, Tencent expects to develop its news feed service provider Kandian to retain and provide information to over 1 billion Tencent’s users. Tencent says that after the integration and launch of Tencent Kandian, the platform already has 185 million daily active users (DAUs). But it grew explosively as it expanded into a kind of super-app that takes. 9 - Mini applications on Tencent Holdings WeChat had more than 300 million daily active users last year, who combined to spend CNY800 billion (USD115 billion) in the apps. The Chinese app started off as a simple smartphone messaging app in 2011, less than a year after WhatsApp was founded. ![]() In contrast, ByteDance’s AI-powered news aggregator Jinri Toutiao has around 120 million DAUs, while Baidu’s mobile app, which provides news feed and online search function, hit 189 million DAUs as of September.īehind the hot competitive news feed sector, Tencent and its competitors are trying to monetize the huge user pool they own. WeChat Mini Apps 300 Million DAUs Spent USD115 Billion Last Year. Revenues from online advertising have become the new cash cow for Tencent. ![]()
The Surface Pro 9 is more widely available, but if you don't need the performance increase, you can save a good chunk of cash with the Surface Pro 8 since it's an older device and often on sale. It's essentially the same device but with faster Intel 12th Gen processors. As you may already know, Microsoft has released the Surface Pro 9. Port selection is limited you only get two USB-C/Thunderbolt 4s, a proprietary charging port, and a headphone jack. The keyboard is worth getting, as it's comfortable to type on and protects the screen against scratches. It also supports pen input, but unlike the ASUS, you have to buy it separately, and the same goes for the keyboard. It has a sharp 120Hz IPS display, and above it sits an excellent 1080p webcam for video calls and a facial recognition IR camera. If you prefer a tablet PC with a detachable keyboard, get the Microsoft Surface Pro 8 (2021). Battery life sits around eight hours of light use, so depending on your usage, you may need to plug it in for a quick charge to get through the day. Performance-wise, its Intel 13th Gen CPU has no problem handling general productivity and more demanding workloads like photo editing and programming. You get plenty of ports, including two Thunderbolt 4s, as well as a facial recognition IR camera for quick logins. It supports pen input and comes with an MPP (Microsoft Pen Protocol) 2.0 stylus, although there's nowhere to dock or attach the pen for transport. It has a gorgeous 90Hz OLED display, a comfortable keyboard, and a large touchpad with a built-in virtual Numpad. This sleek ultraportable feels incredibly well-built and is easy to carry around. ![]() ![]() The best 2-in-1 laptop we've tested is the ASUS Zenbook 14 Flip OLED (2023). If that sounds like you, then there's a whole variety of different types of musky scents to choose from, and 13 of the best ones are right here. ![]() So, really, it doesn't quite matter what your taste in fragrances is, as long as you like to smell amazing. Read about this perfume in other languages: Deutsch, Espaol, Franais, etina, Italiano,, Polski. Top note is Olibanum middle notes are Guaiac Wood and Cedar base note is Musk. Musky Gaiac by Dossier is a Woody Spicy fragrance for women and men. It is similar to Aventus’s popular pineapple scent. Perfume rating 3.39 out of 5 with 33 votes. Dossier MUSKY OAKMOSS Eau de Parfum Natural Fragrance 1.7 Oz Cologne New in Box Type. Musky Oakmosses is inspired by Creed aventus. We know about the quality of the dossier fragrance in the Dossier perfume review. Really, it's a strong and sweet odor (how else would male deer attract female deer?) that blends perfectly with many other ingredients to make a sophisticated, intoxicatingly delicious scent. Dossiers are the largest player on the fragrance dupe market. There are musky colognes bottled with lavender and musky colognes bottled with leather a musky cologne that smells of sweet, summer fruit, and a musky cologne that smells of dark, spicy rum. Unlike most other perfume scents-fruity, floral, spicy, earthy-that are essentially made up of the same handful of popular ingredients layered with different notes, musky colognes encompass an expansive breadth of scents. Musk is an ingredient secreted from male deer specifically to be used in perfume-making, but more than that, it's become a larger, broader term to describe scents that are quite warm and woody, often with hints of florals or citrus. ![]() Even if you're an amateur in the world of fragrances, you've probably heard the term "musk" before. ![]() Gary explained their position on this matter, but genuinely wanted to help us and had already started to liaise with Ultraframe. Just a few hours later, it became apparent that he had already taken action and escalated this, as Gary Oakes, the Sales Director at the Head Office in Leyland contacted us. He asked for more information to be sent to him and he would look into whether they could help. He listened attentively and was very empathetic. Paul Kelly, the Senior Design Consultant explained, understandably, that they didn’t do repair jobs, because they give a 20 year guarantee with their designs and constructions. We decided to visit the Warrington showroom one afternoon in the middle of January 2023. During the process, we found out that Clearview Home Improvements, a local company, were a genuine, approved installer for Ultraframe. Nevertheless, Ultraframe had given them a solution for fixing the conservatory. Furthermore, in December 2022, we discovered via Ultraframe that the Ultra Installer accreditation had been terminated with BellaVista in October 2021. During this process, it became apparent that BellaVista had not fitted a strong enough eaves beam to support the size of the sliding doors. However, promised timescales for resolutions were not met further leaks were not addressed no assistance was given to make the conservatory watertight calls, texts and emails were not answered and we therefore commenced communication directly with Ultraframe. We were assured that this would be fixed. It had become apparent that the roof was dipping and the gutter was leaking in the middle. ![]() When the plasterer and electricians came in the middle of July, we could no longer close the doors and there was a 55cm gap. The sliding doors were stiff and did not close properly at the bottom. After months of delays, various excuses, poor communication and inconvenience, we finally had the windows, doors and roof fitted by the end June 2022. They then contacted us at the beginning of January 2022 to say that they were going to commence taking down the old conservatory. We signed the proposal agreement with BellaVista in November 2021, because the website stated that they had the Approved Ultraframe Installer accreditation and the proposal also stated that they were the only Ultraframe Installer in Greater Manchester. Our experiences with the two companies have been worlds apart, which we have put into context below. We are so grateful to Clearview Home Improvements for their excellent, caring professionalism in resolving a major issue with our conservatory that had been designed and constructed by another company (BellaVista Glazed Extensions). As soon as planning permission is granted, we will sign on the dotted line and look forward to seeing the result! Thanks His eye for detail saved a real potential issue from occurring. A big thanks to Clearview and Adam H for their advice to date in window selection and planning approval. ![]() Thankfully Adam was right, the property was now listed under a Conservation Area and required special permission to proceed with new windows. He suggested we seek advice from the local authorities before proceeding. Before agreeing to the purchase of the windows, Adam was concerned that the property might be located in a heritage location. ![]() I contacted Clearview, and Adam Howard helpfully advised us in person on the options available and how they would look. For many years we had struggled with the old single-glazed wooden windows awaiting the opportunity to replace them with a high-end modern replacement that wouldn’t compromise the property's architectural features. I approached Clearview on behalf of my mother, who owns a very old property in Penwortham. I think it’s brave of them to make their debut with a VR game, but hey, these guys seem to know what they’re doing!įollowing the launch of their first game, they started working on Bramble: The Mountain King right away. This vision became a reality in 2017 with the creation of “ A Writer and His Daughter,” a very unique VR title with incredibly neat and well-made graphics and, in keeping with their main focus on storytelling, an intriguing narrative. This team’s nerve center is in Norrköping, Sweden.Īll of this began when four college students made the decision to collaborate and fulfill their shared dream of opening their own game development studio. The 20 outstanding and talented members of Dimfrost Studio are very close-knit and have been working with strength and passion for years. On the occasion of the Game Awards 2022, when they made the game demo available on PS5 as well as Steam, where it is still possible to download, he used this phrase as an answer in an open interview ( AMA, Ask Me Anything) on Reddit. ![]() ![]() These are the words of Fredrik Selldén (Fresel), CEO and Narration Lead of development studio Dimfrost Studio, creators of Bramble: The Mountain King, in reference to the growing number of excellent video game products and related development teams from the fascinating Scandinavian lands (such as Dice and Fatshark). “MUST BE SOMETHING IN THE WATER HERE IN SWEDEN” I’m referring to Bramble: The Mountain King, which will help keep our minds and eyes refreshed by the icy Scandinavian wind.Īfter God of War: Ragnarok, Santa Monica’s most recent chapter set in those breathtaking, enchanted lands, bids us farewell to the Norse landscape, we will have the opportunity to re-immerse ourselves in an equally fascinating and, in my opinion, even more peculiar environment. Another must-have game is coming out this year, and I can’t wait to play it. ![]() Through our proprietary engine technologies, we can fairly quickly work on multiple platforms’ requirements.įive years ago, when you launched BDO, you partnered with publishers to distribute your game around the world. We don’t rule out mobile platforms but PC and consoles would be a great start for the title. PC and consoles are still very dominant and popular game platforms if we see the global market and those platforms allow us to offer the best gameplay experience for a title like Crimson Desert. We want to be platform-agnostic as a game developer and we try to make our titles playable on all the major game platforms. Can you explain us why you made this choice to make Crimson Desert on consoles and PCs, rather than develop a mobile MMO like most of your competitors in Korea? For example, are PC players more “loyal” (when it's more difficult to build loyalty on mobile games? Crimson Desert will be available on PC and consoles – Western gamers welcome this, but it is a choice (another one) that seems almost unusual today. Mobile MMOs are very popular in Asia today (less in the West where MMO players still prefer to play on PC). ![]() Our goal has been to create a truly open-world MMORPG. MMO gameplay experience where players from different background and cultures mingle and play together online constantly interacting with each other has a tremendous value to the players and it will be more so in the future, in the more connected world, and we continue working on MMOs because of that. Why this choice to make an MMORPG? What is your perception of the MMORPG market today? And what is your vision for the future of MMORPG market ? ![]() But it is sometimes considered that the “golden age” of (PC) MMOs is over, and one said Black Desert has been the last “AAA” MMO launched to date since 2015. You have made another big choice, which was to develop a MMO (you were right since Black Desert is a commercial success) and some of your next projects are also MMOs. Gameplay or design component are all critical for the game’s success but with the right game engine technologies, you can achieve the utmost quality for the results. Using your proprietary engine gives you lots of advantages as it allows you to be able to contol and improve your game development process and the quality of the results. We’ve been always pursuing the technological innovation and will be continuing to do so. So, yes, we believe technological innovation is critical, especially for a game studio like us, who wants to create AAA blockbuster games. And 10 years later we’re still investing a lot on the game engine technologies. To guarantee the quality of the results to every single details in such a complicated game, they knew they needed a proprietary engine fully optimized to the title, and started developed the in-house game engine for Black Desert. Pearl Abyss, from the very beginning 10 years ago, had the thought in mind “Without the right technology, you cannot be a leader in the videogame industry.” The founding team wanted to create an open-world MMORPG that offers extremely high fidelity graphics and seamless gameplay experience. Are you right? Do you think “technological innovation” (alongside gameplay or design choices) is the key today in the gaming industry? Why this unusual choice when the CryEngine or the Unreal Engine are very accessible? It seems to me that this initial choice was decisive for you. But can you tell us about the creation of Pearl Abyss: for example, you decided very early on to design your own game engine. Pearl Abyss is ten years old now and you have made a great path since then (we will come back to this later). Pearl Abyss was founded just ten years ago (September 10, 2010) and since its creation, the studio has made some atypical choices: designing its own game engine rather than using a licensed engine developing MMORPGs at a time when the golden age of the genre is sometimes considered to be over or focusing on PC when its competitors are choosing mobile.Ĭhoices which were apparently rather judicious in hindsight ( Black Desert now claims 40 million registered players in 150 countries, on four platforms), but during an interview with the studio, we wanted to know what motivated the initial choices of Pearl Abyss and what are the developer's plans for the future, whether with Crimson Desert or DokeV, its next two MMORPGs. |
