By the time the Kickstarter closed, over 20,000 fans had backed the project to the tune of $2.48 million. It reached its $700,000 goal in 32 hours with 7,699 backers, and shortly afterwards became the 12th million-dollar project ever on Kickstarter. In a span of 24 hours, the Homestuck Kickstarter had raised almost $600,000 dollars, at the time the fourth-highest single-day toll in Kickstarter history (Obsidian's Project Eternity has since bumped it down to fifth). In September 2012, Homestuck fans put their money where their mouth was, backing a Kickstarter project to create an adventure game based on the series after its planned end in 2013.

Numbering in the millions, Homestuck fans vie with popular, established fanbases such as those of Doctor Who and The Avengers on sites like Tumblr and various imageboards. Since its beginning in April of 2009, Homestuck has exploded to become one of the most ubiquitous - and devoted - fandoms on the internet.

He also said those complaining about him are “bitter” and are the kind of nasty people who would turn sinners away from church. Wilson subsequently praised himself for the way he’s conducted himself in this matter, saying that persecution is a sign of his righteousness, and sneering that his wife celebrated the criticism coming their way by buying him a bottle of single-malt Scotch. Really? The church has no authority to prohibit a lawful marriage? I suppose same-sex couples in Idaho can show up at Christ Church and expect Pastor Wilson to marry them, then. This, and the claim that the church can’t withhold marriage from anybody, as long as both parties know what they’re getting into, is a pretty shameless example of passing the buck for a disaster. Moreover, if everything is on the table, we do not believe the church has the authority to prohibit or “not allow” a lawful marriage. Sitler is one of the best things that can happen to him and to society” (emphasis added). While we do not believe that marriage is an automatic “fix” for the temptations to molest children, we agree with Judge Stegner who approved the wedding and said that ‘an age-appropriate relationship with a member of the opposite sex from Mr. That said, I officiated at the wedding and was glad to do so. Katie and her family had all the facts when she agreed to marry Steven, which was important, but the decision to marry was the couple’s decision, not ours. First, it should be noted that in our community, weddings are not arranged or determined by the church. Seventh, in the latest round of accusations, much has been made of the fact that Christ Church approved of Steven’s wedding to Katie through the fact that I officiated at the wedding. Wilson defends his actions forcefully in this September 5 “open letter” on his blog. You can well imagine the ruckus this has caused in and around the Christ Church (Doug Wilson’s church) community. The Sitlers had a baby boy, and as of this month, Steven Sitler is not allowed to be with his son because a court has reason to believe that he is sexually stimulated by the presence of the baby. Andrews college in Moscow, and Sitler Sitler describes it all on the website announcing his and Katie’s 2011 wedding.ĭoug Wilson married them in his church in 2011 - this, knowing that Sitler was a pedophile. In 2010, an elder at Doug Wilson’s church and his family set up a meeting between Katie Travis, a young woman at New St. Six weeks later, he was caught in an act of voyeurism, and confessed to masturbating while peering into a neighbor’s window. Sitler was sentenced to life in prison, but released on probabation in 2007 after 20 months behind bars. Despite allegations that Sitler had molested other children, none of the other families would cooperate with investigators.ĭoug Wilson wrote to the judge asking for leniency, and expressing his hope that Sitler could one day be rehabilitated and become a productive member of society. Sitler eventually pled guilty to only one count of lewd conduct with a child under 16. Sitler was convicted in 2005 of child molestation he molested several children in a family This morning, though, a reader brings to my attention a situation in the Moscow circle that is far worse than any culture-war sniping and snarking.Įarlier this month, a convicted sex offender named Stephen Sitler was prohibited by a judge from having contact with his infant son without a chaperone other than his wife present - this, after he was discovered being sexually stimulated by such contact. It’s apparently a rhetorical tic among the Moscow, Idaho, bunch longtime readers will recall a younger pastor associated with Wilson’s church claiming that Protestants who convert to Catholicism or Orthodoxy are the spiritual equivalent of perverts who masturbate to pornography. He calls himself “one of those grenade launching Protestants.” Um, yeah. The latter is just plain surly about the fact that there even are any men. The former is an avid reader of Cosmopolitan and thinks she knows 15K ways to please a man in bed. Unbelieving women either compete for the attention of men through outlandish messages that communicate some variation of “easy lay,” or in the grip of resentment they give up the endeavor entirely, which is how we get lumberjack dykes. The last thing I read about the controversial Reformed pastor Doug Wilson, he was making a case for why Christian women are prettier than non-believing females. North facing RGB really helps out the night-owl low-light freestyle typists that have to type in the dark / at night but still want to enjoy the hobby. I like north-facing rgb PCBs, and think that south-facing (while certainly beneficial for the typical high end build ) is largely overrated. Was gonna make a post about my own unpopular opinion: Terminology gets thrown around out the wazoo and people misuse words all the time: gasket used to refer to isolation of the plate from the case by the dampener material but now its a catch all for "soft and bouncy typing experience"ĭang man beat me to the punch. sure, denser metals affect the sound but you're not staring at the underside of your keyboard while you type are you? Weights are the most unnecessary thing about a keyboard: all it does is add additional cost and processing time that then gets passed down to you for no additional typing experience benefit. on tactiles it just interferes with the feeling of the actual bump notice how most of the keyboards that are plateless/bouncy tend to have linears? bounce or more accurately vibration transfer provides that subconscious feedback that a key has been struck which linears don't give. Linears are bad for your typing ergonomics because you have absolutely no feedback other than force applied. not saying that they're bad changes (like going to top mount vs tray mount) but you'd be surprised at how differences between plates disappear if you can select a switch that successfully prevents you from bottoming out harshly But we do get useless keys like Pause/Break, Print Screen, Scroll Lock, Menu, and of course the dreaded Windows™ Logo key instead of Super/Code/Command (any one of which would be more acceptable than "Win").Ī ton of innovations in board design have inadvertently been influenced by bad typing form, aka bottoming out all the time. Can any keycap set include a dedicated, printed Compose key? Compose is legit useful, and yet we never see it on a printed keycap. It fits into the same space as a common 6¼u spacebar, you can make the left key your Backspace, and that center key is the best place in the world for Fn.Īnother gripe. Split spacebar all the keyboards, not just 40%. Why? What happened to trying to invent something better? I'm annoyed by people producing all sorts of custom boards and even hand-wired boards and making them bog-standard layouts that they could have just got in a kit. Not because I agree with you exactly, but at least you are thinking about key layout. Until the dictatorship apologises, this candlelight will continue to make their conscience uncomfortable. Thirty years ago, Beijing's Tiananmen Square became the focus for large-scale protests, which were crushed by China's Communist rulers.The events produced on. Thirty years ago, Beijings Tiananmen Square became the focus for large-scale protests, which were crushed by Chinas Communist rulers.The events produced on. "Many Chinese officials come to see me and ask me, 'Can't you stop holding the vigil?' And I tell them, 'No'. A promotional video for camera maker Leica showing photojournalists covering global conflicts including the deadly Tiananmen Square protests in China in 1989 has resulted in the company's. He has long attended the city's annual candlelight vigil for the victims of June 4, saying it helps preserve the "historical truth" of Tiananmen in the face of blanket Chinese censorship. Mr Chu believes that even in the face of authoritarian power, there remains hope for change and progress, as symbolised by Hong Kong's refusal to forget. The Tiananmen Square Massacre of June 4th, 1989, saw some 300,000 Chinese troops descend on Beijing, murdering protestors, bystanders and students sleeping i. Microsoft’s Bing search engine briefly blocked images and videos of the famous tank man of Tiananmen Square on Friday, the anniversary of China’s massacre. Mr Chu helped with the diplomatic negotiations, while British authorities allowed fugitives to stay in Hong Kong until they received asylum abroad. A Leica promotional video alluded to the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, prompting an angry response from China just weeks ahead of the 30th. "Living in a society on the brink of authoritarianism and of arbitrary rule, let me be a brave bell toller, ringing, waking up sleepy souls." OPERATION YELLOWBIRDĪfter the troops of the People's Liberation Army crushed the democracy movement in 1989, calling it a counter-revolutionary plot, more than a million outraged Hong Kong residents spilled into the streets in mass protests.Ī small group of activists, businessmen and gangsters organised a covert effort, Operation Yellowbird, to smuggle hundreds of students and activists out of mainland China, sometimes using high-powered speedboats.Ībout 400 dissidents escaped, passing through Hong Kong en route to Western nations such as Canada, France and the United States.

We removed the wall tape before the ceiling paint was dry so we could get clean lines. We taped off the top of the walls, so ceiling paint would not get on the walls. The correct method is to remove tape while the paint is still wet you will have to choose your own method.įor the ceiling, we chose a lighter version of our wall color. I often have to go back and touch up edges. The problem with my method, however, is that the paint can peel at the point where the tape is pulled off. Instead, I remove the tape after all coats are finished. This would mean re-applying tape between each coat. You need several coats of paint, and each one must dry before applying the next coat. I finally settled on using the same color as the room walls, and adding lights to the closet.Ī note about painter's tape: tape should be removed while paint is still wet. I debated color choice for the closet I didn't want the closet to be too dark. I started by painting areas along door frames, outlets, fixtures etc., using a small brush (1.5" - 2" works well). I chose "London Coach" interior satin (Valspar brand at Lowe's). In a few areas, we applied a third coat of flat white paint.Ĩ. The second coat completely covered the wall with a uniform white. The covering was neither complete nor uniform. When thoroughly dry, apply second coat of paint. Use a fine brush near the ceiling (or tape off the edges of the ceiling).ħ. You will need a brush or other type of corner painting tool. I like to use a brush to paint corners and other small areas that a roller cannot get to. If your walls have very much of a glossy finish, sand (then clean) them before applying the flat white paint.Ħ. Even flat paint will not stick over paint that is very glossy. Remember: glossy paint will NOT stick to glossy paint. The black paint had a satin finish (very slight gloss) and I found that painting over it with the flat paint worked fine. If you are covering glossy paint, you will need to lightly sand and re-clean the walls before painting. Tape off items, such as door knobs and door framing, that will not be painted.ĥ. Zip lock bags (keeps your brushes moist during breaks)ĭry wall patches (I use self adhesive patches)Ĥ. Kitchen garbage bag (works great for storing your paint tray during breaks) Paint cloths (old towels will do - these are used to protect areas from paint splatter and drips)īaby wipes (works well for quick clean-up) Paint stir stick (even if well mixed when purchased, you will need to stir the paint each day before using) The paint must be well mixed before using. Be sure that the paint store employee puts your paint in the shaker before giving it to you. The paint seller can show you the various finishes, and explain the differences. I never go with gloss because it is difficult to work with, and I don’t like the shine. The higher the gloss, the more durable the paint (and it becomes more washable). I use satin paint, but you may prefer semi-gloss for trim. You might also need trim paint and ceiling paint. I used satin finish for the room's finish color. * NOTE: paint quantity depends on room size - we used 1.5 gallons for 2 coats for a 15 ft.

If that works but would mean you lose some work you have done in MC27 (tagging or whatever), then you could Restore your most recent MC27 Library Backup but without settings. You could also uninstall MC27, then find the JRiver trees in the Registry and delete them, then reinstall MC27 and Restore a MC26 Library Backup from just before you installed MC27. You could try running WireShark to see if there is any activity on Port 52199. While I can now use the library fine, I'd love to solve this since the port number is rather ingrained in my habits after 2+ decades of use- not to mention it bothers me that this problem remains unexplained.Ī System Restore is probably the easiest, but it will mean redoing lots of work and the problem may happen again. This behavior has remained constant since the initial upgrade to 27, although there's nothing that guarantees it actually triggered the problem. Checked firewall logs for dropped connection to the port (no drops anywhere and also have also turned the firewall off without difference).deleted firewall rules for all Media Center related entries and let them be automatically re-added by MC use.started from an absolutely pristine version of MC27, with no imported library, tracks, or settings.uninstalled all version of MC, 27 included, using full remove registry and libraries method.disabled any and all virus/malware protection.I have checked all active ports and confirmed there is nothing using these ports.I have spent days trying to solve this on my own, but can't crack it. If running on another port outside this range, it says the library is not reachable from the internet, however that is incorrect, it works just fine (with port forwarding adjusted). I can start the server on another port as long as it isn't in the 51661-54999 block, so it can run. I know Ted uses it as well as other players… maybe a question direct to him on what he likes best and why is in order.Since upgrading to MC27 (on Monday), I've been unable to start a Media Server using the standard port 52199. I have mine set to display the library as a Windows tree structure… I like it and find no reason to change players. However, wierder things have happened in this audio world… so… to each his/her own.īTW, foobar has super-fast database organization and management… I don’t know if others are as fast/good, but years ago, foobar was peerless in this aspect. The Direct Stream DAC and Junior take great pains to eliminate jitter and other bit stream related issues. Regarding sound… if the player is passing a bit-perfect stream, it should sound no different from other bit-perfect players. If you are not getting bit-perfect pass through, then check if you have Windows volume up to 100… windows kernal does evil to a bit stream. Playing these files will light up on your display (senior or junior) and let you know if you are getting bit-perfect pass through. PS Audio has files you can play to determine if your system is bit perfect. The Geek Illuminati notes that it is very lite on computer resources. It also has a sliding buffer size tool to help with any juttering you may have using an older, slower computer. I have it configured with a dropdown to select output drivers with a click, so I can select output between my PS Audio DAC, and my Woo Audio headphone DAC/Amp. Further, it has a zillion plugins to play all kinds of crazy files and has file utilities. The good is that you can make it look and handle anyway you like. The challenge with Foobar is that it is a geek’s tool and requires some configuration to look good, and for that it helps to have some computer savvy. It is fully bit-perfect, but you can install digital equalizer plug-ins if you like. Sorry, I don’t mean to hijack this thread, but I do want to post that there are other options for a player. If anyone is interested in using Foobar with Windows, I can provide to you my configuration files to get you up and running in no time. BTW, yes I am a Foobar evangelist (it is free).
