It would also be wonderful to have Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor back to once again handle the soundtrack. Whether it's the blood-soaked eldritch halls of the original game, or the sci-fi body horror of its sequels, Quake has always left a lasting impression in terms of setting that's just begging to be explored with current-gen technology. However, a new Quake game is certainly long overdue. In fairness, there was a 12-year gap between Doom 3 and Doom (2016), so it's certainly not as if id Software's flagship series has been routinely pumping out releases until very recently. If it wasn't for multiplayer projects like Quake Live or Quake Champions, we'd have gone 16 years without a game in the series. id and many game companies had a difficult transition to making Hi-definition games as 3D hardware cards and cpu speed kept doubling from the 1990's until 2008 roughly, that means game costs. id was sold to zenimax because of financial troubles because of Rage. The last official single-player Quake title was Quake 4, released all the way back in 2005, if you can believe that. AKA when quake 2 was made, id was an independent company that could do what it wants. ![]() This could signify that a remaster of the original game will be making its way to PC and current-gen consoles.īut with QuakeCon 2021 (opens in new tab) happening from August 19 - August 22, there's every chance that this Quake ESRB listing won't remain a mystery for very long. That said, the description for the game on the ESRB listing is reminiscent of the setting for the very first Quake, released in 1996. As we only have the ESRB listing to go off for now, the existence of a future Quake project should be taken with a pinch of salt. It's currently unclear if this Quake project will be a brand new entry in the series or not, or if it will amount to anything at all.

![]() Several tracks on Pieces of You were recorded live in 1994 at the Innerchange, a San Diego coffeehouse where Jewel was a regular performer. Jewel then became subject of a bidding war between labels, eventually signing with Atlantic Records. While living in San Diego, California, Jewel managed to amass a local following while performing in coffee houses and local bars, which resulted in a bootleg being broadcast on 91X FM. The bulk of the songs featured on Pieces of You were written by Jewel between the ages of 16 and 19 she has said that " Who Will Save Your Soul" specifically was written while she was busking during a hitchhiking trip she took by herself over spring break from the Interlochen Center for the Arts, where she had been studying on a vocal scholarship. It was released through Craft Recordings in multiple formats including the original album remastered, alongside a four-disc box set containing B-sides, demos, outtakes, and live performances of the album's songs. On September 28, 2020, Jewel announced that the album would be re-released in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the album's release. ![]() As of June 2010, the album had sold over 7.3 million copies in the US, becoming one of the best-selling debut albums of all time. Pieces of You was certified 12-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on January 30, 2006, denoting shipments in excess of 12 million copies in the United States. Despite a mixed critical response, the album is listed at number 64 of the "Definitive 200" by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. After two years, the album was re-released featuring the re-recorded versions of "You Were Meant for Me" and "Foolish Games". Other hits included were " Foolish Games" and " You Were Meant for Me", as well as the UK single "Morning Song". The single " Who Will Save Your Soul" eventually received airplay, and the album peaked at number four on the US Billboard 200, almost exactly two years after its release. Two years later, in 1997, Bob Dylan invited Jewel to tour with him as his opening act, which gave the album widespread public exposure. Īfter its release in February 1995, the album initially failed to chart. Featuring acoustic guitar-based songs written when Jewel was a teenager, the album is composed of both live recordings from 1994 at The Innerchange, a coffeehouse in San Diego, and studio recordings completed at Neil Young's personal studio in Redwood City, California. It was produced by Ben Keith, who has also produced works for artists such as Neil Young and Patsy Cline. ![]() Pieces of You is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Jewel, released on February 28, 1995, by Atlantic Records. ![]() Link ▶️ "Warning: Your destruction will be painful.Link ▶️ "Preserving power on all non-combat functions.".Estimated kill efficiency increased."

However it is regretful to know toilet is not up to standard and we are very sorry for the shortfalls you experienced, we will be making the necessary changes for improvements in the future. Your feedback will mean so much to all the team and motivate us further to ensure we always go that extra mile to ensure our guest feel well cared for whilst staying with us and thank you for highlighting some of the areas you felt we can make some improvements. We are pleased to hear you generally had a pleasant stay, on a positive note thank you for recognizing the comfortable room and restaurant. ![]() I would still recommend this hotel especially for its decor and feel.ĭear reubstery, Thank you for choosing Hotel Muse Bangkok and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us on your recent stay and your comments are very important for the team to hear. It's one of those where the sweet spot is really hard to get. The toilet lacked a bidet which to me is rather standard issue and the shower took several minutes to warm up and was hard to tweak the temperature. ![]() A few things prevented me from giving it a full 5 stars. While I understand it's not his job as he is there to seat guests, the snappy attitude surprised me a bit. Breakfast also had a decent spread and hit the spot though the guy with the black jacket (also referred to in Rey0739's review) was a bit snappy (though could see him trying to hold it back) when I asked for attention as there was no one attending to me for a bit. The staff were prompt and attentive and the French restaurant in the basement served good food in a nice environment. I stayed in the duplex unit which they upgraded me to which was very cosy and spacious. The rooms were gorgeous and while you can see a little of its age, it was well maintained. Car park was free and painless for guests. ![]() Hotel Muse is located right in the heart of Bangkok and is a short walk 6 minute away from the Central Embassy mall and also near the BTS. I wouldn’t even rate this hotel 1 star disgusting pathetic and disgraceful my worst stay in a hotel EVER. The pillows Yuch full of lumps probably as old as the hotel is changed them few times all were lumpy and horrendous. My suite was beyond filthy and even though I had sadly paid upfront for 5 nights wanted to move out. Checking in they decided the terrace suite which I had already checked in online was unavailable!!! And downgraded me to a suite which was outdated falling apart and horrible when I went online again it showed the terrace suite AVAILABLE!!!!!!! Anyways next morning they finally moved me to the terrace suite and trust me it’s the worst hotel room I have ever stayed in the terrace was stinking full of centipedes and disgusting like throwing up disgusting the breakfast was pathetic and the room and furniture was falling apart the staff were decent guess their hands are tied down if owners don’t want to upgrade. To start off with had stayed here few times many many years ago and decided to stay again it was the most disgusting and horrible stay in a hotel EVER. ![]() The Jackpot has been known for its notorious 'snipers' (there have been systems implemented recently that will reduce the chance this will affect other Jackpot players), which add items at the last minute to make other players lose. Many people believe these max servers were implemented to reduce 'sniping'. Jackpot has "Max Servers" such as 500B Max (100B value required), 1T Max (100B value required), 100T Max (10T value required), and Ultimate (no max) (50T value required). The greater the player's percentage, the more likely the player will win. The jackpot system then decides a winner based on the percentages each participating player has. Based on the value of items added, the jackpot automatically decides a percentage per player. Jackpot involves players adding items to a pool. If they wait too long, it will crash, giving them nothing. To gain profit out of this, the player would generally want to get a multiplier greater than 1. The way this works is that when the player places a bet, their winnings are decided based on the multiplier, and the system uses nm (n = your bet, m = multiplier) to decide their winnings. The longer the player waits, the more valuable your multiplier is. If they get tails, they lose their bet.Ĭrash involves placing a bet of Case-Bux and waiting afterwards. If the player gets heads, they get double the amount. Once the player places their bet, the system decides "heads" or "tails". Games available to Case Clicker players include the Jackpot, Coin Flip, and Crash.Ĭoin Flip involves placing a bet (Case-Bux) of the player's choice. Opens 100 random cases of a random variety Opens a random item (excludes Exclusive-tier items) If a player owns the VIP game pass, upgrades have a 10% discount. They can be used to purchase in-game perks, or they can be used to exchange for instant Case-Bux. They can be gained from supply drops, leveling up, and purchasing them through Robux. There are two ways to get this: the player can click the Case-Bux button, or they can open crates and sell the items for (almost all the time) a profit. EDT.Ĭase-Bux is the in-game currency that the player can use to buy cases and items from the market. The items are rotated every 24 hours at 6:00 p.m. ![]() The featured items are usually Mythic or Ultimate-tier and can be purchased with Gems. The Featured Items Shop is a selection of purchasable items that change periodically. A brief description of the Featured Items Shop will be stated here. Critical Click Chance (by increments of 1% when the player upgrades) (the percent chance of the player upgrading it in is the chance of your multiplier increasing while clicking for Case-Bux).Bux Multiplier cap (normally caps at 2x current Case-Bux amount) (DOES NOT APPLY TO AUTO CLICKER this upgrade is for the manual click button located near the bottom left corner).1 seconds, minimum time without game pass 2.5 secs/case.) More Case-Bux Per Click (applies to the clicker increases the amount of Case-Bux given per click by an increment of 10) (capped at 3 million Case-Bux per click).Listed below are all of the upgrades in Case Clicker. The price doubles as the player is able to open more cases. To rebirth, the player needs to click the Rebirth button and purchase the rebirth, starting at 1B Case-Bux. It was originally in the game but was later removed, and added back in a 2019 update. The Rebirth feature is the only obtaining method for upgrading the amount of cases the player can open at a time. The quantity specified varies, but is based on the player's current level. Missions in Case Clicker involve obtaining a quantity of a specific item (with rarities varying from Uncommon to Omega), and exchanging the item(s) with an NPC for experience points. There are titles that are given to users when they reach a certain level. When users obtain enough experience points, they level up, and are rewarded with gems in the process. ![]() Users obtain experience points by opening cases and completing missions. In Case Clicker, levels are a way of tracking how "experienced" a user is in-game. A brief description of creator codes will be stated here.Ĭreator codes are a way to show support for the player's favorite Skilled Games YouTubers. The winner of each match will obtain a random gear, from an Epic-tier to a Mythic-tier. The gears the player has in Case Clicker will transfer to the arena and can be used in there. The Arena is a game that the player can fight other players in. A brief description of the Arena will be stated here. ![]() The middle change was the most subtle: I added a single character randomly to the text. You can see that it highlights the additions in blue on the right side. My first change is a bit tougher: I turned the word "amet" into " metta world peace". My third change is the easiest to see: I added a new line. What you can hopefully see by doing your own diff is that the diff tool is great at picking out every little change that was made and displaying them to you. The green bar indicates where these changes are in the original file, and the blue bar indicates where these changes are in the new file. You can see from the red bar on the right side that KDiff3 has detected three changes across the file. (The number after the sign is the revision.) Note that there are browse buttons next to each of those, so you could diff any files that you have, regardless of whether they're under version control or not. The one on the left says and the one on the right says Design.txt. You can tell all of this by looking at the text just just about the actual files. On the right is the current state of the file. What you see on the left side is the last version that was committed to the repository. For now, I'll just cover the most important features. It has quite a few features, and we just don't have time to look at everything here, but feel free to explore. I'm not going to go into a ton of details on this tool. This opens KDiff3, preconfigured to compare your edits to the file against the last version you committed, so that you can see the changes that you made. Once you've made some changes (the file will now have a red exclamation icon overlaid on it, instead of the green check icon that indicates nothing has changed) right-click on it and choose TortoiseHg > Visual Diff. We'll use the diff tool to show the changes that were made to the file. To set things up, go to your repository and make a change of some sort to a file without committing the change right away. In this tutorial, we'll take a few minutes to explore the diff tool. You can use this tool to compare any two similar files, but the most popular use for it will be to compare a file that you've changed with the latest version in the repository to see how it's different from the last commit. ![]() ![]() TortoiseHg includes a visual diff tool called KDiff3. Diff tools are able to compare two text files (which are presumably somewhat similar) and point out what changed from one file to the other.Īll version control systems use some form of diff tool, and Mercurial is no different. How does it figure out what got edited? There's a category of software programs called "diff tools", or "diff utilities", named after the original: a program on Unix systems from a very long time ago. Perhaps by now you're wondering how Mercurial knows what changes have been made in your code. ![]() Scorch Torch Triple Jet Flame Torch Cigarette Cigar Lighter w/ Punch Cutter Tool / Size: 1.31" x 0.78" x 2.85" - Weight: 4.0 oz w/ Retail Box.This lets the gasses stabilize and gets rid of any unnecessary vapors.

I called and called for over a year and no progress. I had primary and secondary, and they were charging one as the other which ballooned the copay to a bananas amount. The end result for me was not a happy one lol.Įssentially, what was happening was my insurance was improperly submitting claims through the wrong insurance, if that makes sense. It wouldn’t hurt to call Janssen to see if they can offer any additional help though! Unfortunately there likely isn’t anything you can do this year since you already used up the Stelara benefit (the humira program has the same annual benefit whether you get reimbursed or use the card upfront at the pharmacy it doesn’t reset if you change methods) but it could be a game changer for next year. ![]() A lot of insurers are starting to not count savings card payments towards plan limits and so a lot the drug manufacturers are offering reimbursement programs (though they aren’t usually advertised very well). You should see if stelara has a similar program.

I am on humira and the amount the copay card pays doesn’t count towards my deductible or out of pocket max.

And now I'm stuck with gigantic out of pocket expenses until my insurance deductible is met. But this year, essentially, I blasted through the $20K they give me per calendar year in three months. Last year at the lower dose it lasted eleven months. My issue at the moment is my Janssen Carepath copay assistance has run out three months into the benefit period.

When Ash was young, he saw a comedy featuring a Trainer in red clothes, along with his Clefairy and Pikachu. Oak later tutored Professor Elm, who became friends with the professor. The revelation that Sam is Oak, while able to be speculated because Oak's first name was revealed in the second movie, The Power of One, comes only at the end of the movie, when Oak knows that Ash's friend's name was Sam despite Ash never telling him so, and Tracey finding the sketchbook in which young Sam drew Pikachu sleeping with Celebi in Oak's closet. Ash befriends the young Oak, who, due to traveling from 40 years in the past, is around the same age as him. He appears as a young boy, Sam (Japanese: ユキナリ Yukinari) in the fourth film, Celebi: Voice of the Forest. It depicted an Omanyte shell, which impressed the young Oak back then. When Professor Oak was a young kid, he visited a museum. His Japanese surname, Ookido, possibly comes from "orchid". The last name Oak could possibly originate from the "oak" tree. In " Alola, Kanto", Professor Oak is very close towards his cousin, Samson Oak, when he visits with Professor Kukui, Ash and his Alolan friends at his lab in Pallet Town. According to Professor Elm, Professor Oak's studies and research mostly focus on how humans and Pokémon interact with each other. It is also stated that he became a professor at Celadon University at the age of 25. His grandfather was the first Trainer from Pallet Town to receive widespread recognition, while Samuel himself gained prominence after he published a research paper on Pokémon at the age of 20. He has two brothers, one of whom is the mayor of Pallet Town while the other is its postmaster. In the novelizations written by Takeshi Shudō, Professor Oak comes from a prestigious family. He also has a hobby of composing senryū, haiku-like poems about Pokémon or Pokémon-related themes. His often-forgetful attitude and other antics are also notorious. His known family are his grandson Gary, his cousin Samson and his great-grandfather grand Oak. Professor Oak lives up the road from Delia Ketchum and her son, and he and Delia often appear together as they are good friends. He wore a white buttoned shirt, a brown belt, green pants, white shoes, and an olive green backpack. He has also occasionally been shown to wear blue boxers, which are usually revealed when a Pokémon gets angry and attacks him.Īs a child, Professor Oak had short brown hair with a long fringe on each side and a full fringe in the front. He wears a white lab coat, a light maroon polo shirt, a brown belt and beige pants, and matching brown loafers.
