Femlux: The Rise and Fall of E-Girl Hux

Inspired by a tweet from starsshine77 Fem!Kylo and Fem!Hux with catfishing, internet trolling, Diva Hux, and crybaby Kylo.

Still thinking of e-girl troll Hux. She has a vid of her wearing novelty vampire teeth and chewing on strawberries. She looks all innocent despite posing in her dark corner set up wearing a blood soaked dress. The caption says "i wuv vegans uwu save the earth!"

She composes these videos wanting to shock and confuse as many people as possible. She loves the high.

Kylo knew her in the K-8 private school they went to. Kylo had been in awe of the snooty older girl. When Kylo got her first laptop, she started following Hux's descent into trolling and performative arts. Hux would talk on her blog about how much she loved going to school wearing a normie flesh suit and then shedding it after school.

When Hux went to college for her MBA, she wasn't very active online. Kylo was dismayed but kept checking her blog. When Kylo is 19, Hux posts that she's starting a makeup and fashion channel. Kylo is startled to see that all of Hux's old internet presence is gone. Kylo was glad she saved all of the photos to a hard drive to prove that those years existed.

Kylo is Hux's first subscriber. She's so embarrassed thinking Hux is going to show up and confront her about it. But nothing happens.

Kylo works at a cafe while going to community college while Hux is making herself look like a living doll. The 24 yo doesn't say much about her life. Just off hand comments like:

"This mascara really stays on when you cry in the toilets at work."

"Sometimes you have to wear a mask around men."

"I hate the New York stench. So I use this perfume."

Kylo's pillows get two spurts of the perfume each week.

It's around this time Kylo realizes she's in love. She feels silly that she hadn't noticed it earlier, but she's always been slow.

Hux posts a video about once every two weeks. Kylo watches and studies each one voraciously. Hux slowly goes back to her cynical, dark self. Kylo missed it dearly while others find it disturbing.

Hux offers livestreams and Kylo rearranges her work schedule to attend with an alternate account. In Kylo's rush, she chose a very fit male torso as her profile pic.

The livestream is a shit show. Chat is accusing Hux of things while Hux slings insults at them. The service ends the stream and bans Hux.

Hux's next yt video does not mention the stream at all. She's chipper and cheeky as she does a clothes haul. Kylo is in awe. If she was in Hux's position, she'd have to be institutionalized for severe depression. Instead Hux is beaming at the camera saying the day's date and how much she loves this day. Kylo wonders why and goes down a rabbit hole to discover Mr. Hux passed away last year due to a heart attack.

Kylo uses her alt account and DMs Hux that she loves her smile. Kylo stares at the screen in shock that she sent the message. But she did.

Two hours later, Hux writes back with 'I give you something to smile about, fuckwad.'

Kylo types lightning fast before fully comprehending Hux's words, 'Oh yes please do.'

A couple minutes later, 'For real?'

Kylo bites her lip, 'Please.'

They fall into a weird pattern of Kylo complementing Hux and Hux replying in insults.

As Kylo turns 21, Hux becomes an overnight sensation on a viral platform. Kylo is wrapping up her accounting bachelors degree and nearly fails her midterms due to watching Hux's daily vids.

Their routine takes another turn when Hux starts sending Kylo photos of outfits. Hux would rarely wear the ones Kylo picked.

After a stressful day, Kylo is thrilled to see Hux wearing the checkered bra peaking out of a tight black body suit. 'Thank you. You made my day.'

Hux responds with a puke emoji and a very suggestive pic of the body suit unzipped. Her pale belly glowed. Kylo wrote back, 'My whole year is made. Beautiful. Thank you.'

Hux doesn't reply until next week.

Hux becomes a global phenomenon. Kylo is worried. She catches herself wanting to type 'are you okay?' But doesn't feel like it's her place.

Then the joke that got out of hand happens the next year.

Kylo's alternate account became a true catfish in order to be a top tier patron of Hux.

Kylo declines the video chat perks but wants the bathwater.

------

Hux's life sucks. She's never been happy. Never even had the chance to recognize it, really. She liked things but would get bored or hurt sooner than later.

It was weird that some girl from her hometown became her number one fan. Hux had no idea until a year into talking with Kylo in her DMs. She was stupidly catching feelings for this supposed guy who was nothing but supportive and kind to her. She wanted to know who he was, but he was very shy and declined to answer.

She had been partying after big sale with the sales team when she bumped into a guy that recognized her from the internet. He simpered at how amazingly scary she was. Intrigued, she got to know that he worked at a background company. She offered to use him if he gave her the info on this Kylo Ren guy.

It was nice to vent her frustrations of being catfished on the guy. Mitch was his name? She never saw him again since the morning after.

But she couldn't confront the weird goth girl from her hometown. Hux liked the compliments too much. They kept her going.

And as her corporate job found out her internet life along with the rest of the world, she needed Kylo desperately.

The suggestive photo was a shot in the dark. She had no idea if Kylo saw her as a gal pal or a /gal pal/. Hux returned to their hometown to see Kylo from a far after the Beautiful comment. Hux was stunned to see how tall Kylo is.

Kylo's social media only had two photos of herself. One of her at High school graduation and another of her tagged in her mom's second marriage. The former photo was her at a distance walking up to receive her diploma and the other was her sitting uncomfortably.

Hux couldn't enter the cafe. Kylo's snaggle tooth smile as two kids ordered something made Hux feel like the Grinch. She turned around and stomped back to her rental car feeling like an idiot.

It lessened when she got her first brand deal the next day. Money is one hell of an aphrodisiac.

Then the bathwater...

...and Kylo pouring it down her ample cleavage. The water shimmered down the sloping belly with the filter Kylo was using. It joined the rest of the frothy bathwater. Hux was bummed Kylo's mound was hidden below the surface.

'Now that's some bathwater I could drink for days.'

She smirked at Kylo's reply: 'I am so sorry for lying to you all this time. I didn't know it would ever get this far. Please don't hate me!'

'Sweetie, I just told you I'd drink your bathwater. I like you. You're sexy af.'

'Oh. Uh, thanks. You, too.'

'I knew who you were for a while.'

'Oh! Wow. Would you prefer if I was a guy?'

'No. Never.'

Hux frowned as twenty minutes went by, 'You good?'

'Yeah, I was crying. You're so special to me.'

Hux felt flushed instead of her usual reaction of 'Oh, get over it.' Kylo was genuine.

As Hux's businesses crumbled due to a volley of harassment and misconceptions, she knew she had a golden parachute. She cut her hair to a severe pixie cut after finalizing her business arrangements. She packed up her condo the next day and put it on the market the following day.

She rented a car on the fourth day and drove back to her hometown with her favorite clothes. Kylo was unaware of what she was up to and was sending sweet words of encouragement three times a day.

Hux pulls into Kylo's apartment complex feeling dead tired. But she wants this moment to be truly special. So she changes into an outfit that Kylo loved. Her strawberry school girl outfit, her orange tabby cat ears, and her pink faux fur coat. Her feet hurt too much for heels and she wants to enjoy Kylo's extra height. She grabs two of her suitcases and heads up to Kylo's apartment. Taking a deep breath, she knocks.

Kylo answers the door in a sports bra and pj pants. She stares at Hux dumbfounded before squeaking a hello. Hux sighs, "If you don't hug me in the next-"

Kylo pulls her into a hug and Hux hums appreciating their height difference. Kylo's chest feels just right against her own and Kylo's hands are so big!

"Wait a minute... why do you smell like my old perfume?"

Kylo blushes, "I, um... been following you for a while?"

Hux nods slowly before getting her voice back, "Well, now you won't need to follow me. I'm moving in."

Kylo pulls away trying to form words for a moment, "Really?!"

"Deadly," Hux gestures at her suitcases. "I've got four more in the car."

Kylo turns away but can't hide the sobs. Hux feels a wave of discomfort and has no idea what to do.

"I, uh, will get my things?"

Kylo looks over her shoulder, "Y-yeah, I'll go clean things up for you in the guest room."

Hux's stomach drops but Kylo hadn't rejected her completely.

When she has all six suitcases and two boxes of shoes in the living room, Kylo is crying silently while making pasta. "You can put your stuff in the room to the left. I'm making cheesy pasta for dinner. That works for you?"

Hux almost objected but remembered she doesn't have to maintain her skin anymore, "Sounds good."

She moves her clothes and sees the guest bed is a twin with Wonder Woman sheets. The primary colors are bold. Not at all Hux's aesthetic. But she wasn't going to complain. Instead she threw her pink coat over the coverlet. She went back to the kitchen area where Kylo was still crying.

"Allergies?" Hux asked.

"No. You're here and it's so amazing. Wow," Kylo sighs taking Hux in. Her nose and cheeks were exactly what Hux and all the other e-girls were trying to achieve. "You're here."

"For good. Had to liquidate everything. No more internet for me," Hux threw her hands up.

Kylo blinked, "Are you in danger? I, um, saw what those guys tried to do..."

Hux shook her head, "Nah, I'm gonna go by my real mother's surname and get used to people calling me Armie."

Kylo nods and pours pasta into the boiling water. Hux moves closer, "Like my hair?"

Kylo startles but nods, "Can I touch?"

Hux nods back and removes the cat ears. Kylo smiles shyly as she runs her hand through Hux's short hair. Hux mumbles, "Sorry you weren't able to feel it when it was long."

Kylo blushed, "It makes your cheek bones amazing."

Hux wants to blurt out 'Kiss them! Kiss me!' But Kylo is already awkwardly kissing her. Hux has to tilt her head up slightly and takes advantage of her balance slip to hold onto Kylo's broad hips. Kylo kisses her slowly, gently but commanding. Hux has to follow. There's no wiggle room like with everyone else. She started shifting her hips feeling arousal burn deep. Kylo pulls away with a satisfied sigh before stirring the pasta. Hux bit her lip. She wasn't going to scream. Her stomach was perking up after the long day of packing and driving.

Kylo wordlessly guided them to the couch with two heaping bowls of cheesy pasta. Kylo kissed her forehead before whispering, "Water okay?"

Hux nodded and watched Kylo's backside jiggle slightly with each step.

They kissed each other good night two hours later. Kylo tried to give Hux the wi-fi pw but Hux declined. She had gotten rid of her phone, iPad, and laptop. Kylo had squeezed her hand and told her things would get better.

Hux believed her. Especially when they ended up in Kylo's bed the next night. They hadn't done anything more than cuddling and kissing before falling asleep. The next day, Hux's new accounts were open with the money she was able to move from her past. She could've easily lived the rest of her life on the money. But Kylo's CPA study books caught her eye. She had a MBA with a focus on finances. When Kylo came home that day, Hux announced they were going to be accountants together. Her money could be put towards their business rent. Kylo cried for an hour before she could speak in clear sentences. Hux petted her hair while watching TV.

"That would be pretty fucking awesome, Hux," Kylo whispers.

Hux smiles, "I know."

Kylo sits up and wipes her face before kissing Hux, "Does mean you'll have to interact with people and be on the internet."

Hux shrugs, "Numbers are concise aside from human error."

Kylo's smile grows, "Fucking nerd."

Hux giggles, "Yes, fuck this nerd."

How We Grew Blog Traffic by 650% in Two Years — Organically

As a digital content marketer, your job is to grow traffic that converts into leads and sales. Some of us in this field are lucky to work with companies that sell sexy products. It makes it a little easier. But that’s not always the case. This post is for the other marketers that work in the not-so-sexy fields. I can speak to this audience because up until the spring of this year, I was the Digital Content and Marketing Manager at a synthetic oil company. I won’t fault you if you don’t know what that is — we’ll get to it shortly.

Grow blog traffic, stat

In 2016, I joined a company that sold synthetic oil (the stuff in your engine that you change once every couple of months). One of my tasks was to grow website traffic, and the best channel I landed on was the company blog. The corporate e-commerce website (yep, we sold engine oil online at a premium) was a political minefield, so I had very limited sway. The blog was not. A group of three contributors would meet weekly and throw spur-of-the-moment posts together. It had a sporadic publishing schedule. The topics were dry (it was a blog about motor oil, after all) and blog traffic was correspondingly sluggish. The blog at the time had averaged under 5,000 sessions a month. Within a year, we doubled it. Within two years, we scaled it up seven times. By the time I left, we had surpassed 100,000 sessions within a month threshold.

How we operationalized our blog for triple-digit growth

Within a few months of assuming leadership of the blog, we overhauled the entire publishing process, doubled the team of volunteer contributors, implemented a quarterly editorial calendar, and search-optimized the heck out of our blog posts. These are the tactics I used to increase our sessions, search visibility, and subscribers in two years. 1. No man is an island — neither is your blog Our company had a communications team of great writers. Correction: great-but-swamped writers. So we had to look elsewhere. I reached out to departments across the company in hopes of finding people that liked writing enough to publish something once or twice a month. The writer assigned to help manage the blog would proof and edit posts before they were published, so that these contributors wouldn’t have to worry about writing perfectly. Our efforts paid off; we grew the team from three contributors to a group of eight. 2. Build a flexible calendar, yo We cut back on the spur-of-the-moment publishing process and focused on getting content out three times a week. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays were our days, initially. I created a shared doc where contributors could add post topics. Each quarter, we went through the ideas and picked topics that we would publish. Then I ran each idea through keyword research (via Moz Keyword Explorer and Keyword Planner) and social research (Buzzsumo). This process gave us direction on which messaging resonated with different audiences and how we would distribute our content. Sometimes we wrote posts to answer search queries. Other times, we had a customer group in mind, or an event our marketing team was sponsoring. One of the events we sponsored was the Sturgis Rally. In this case, the post we created was purely for our social media and events support. Luckily, the rally promoted it, which brought an influx of their fans to our blog. An audience we were targeting with our event sponsorship, because they were likely to know and care about which brand of oil they used on their bikes.

3. Ditch the corporate speak — write like you We weren’t corporate mouthpieces. We were a team of individuals, each with our own personalities. One contributor was a handyman and liked to fix things; I encouraged him to write from that perspective. Another writer, Andy, was known for his colorful commentary (“Quaker, it takes more than one goose flying north to make a summer!”) so he infused his posts with some of it, as well. Our racing and events writer became a mom, and her son made an appearance in some of her posts. Our approach did not always align with our brand’s masculine tone. Not a best practice (shrug) but it made our posts a lot more genuine. Each piece we wrote had a distinct voice. Did this have a direct correlation to traffic growth? Probably not. However, it did encourage people to write more often, because the writing was a more natural process. This helped us churn out new content several times a week, which did have an impact. 4. Not all posts shall be optimized equally — that’s ok Despite our best efforts, the blog was a volunteer project slated among a slew of tasks we all had. Thus, not all posts were created equal. Some posts pulled more than their fair share of traffic. We focused on on-page optimization for those each summer with the help of our interns. On a given blog post, we might have: Tweaked the blog post titleAdded a table of contents (with anchor links and bonus points for voice search phrases)Changed the URL (with a redirect, of course)Implemented alt tagsAdded crawl/human/voice search-friendly sub-headsAdded videos (where relevant)Lengthened the post with relevant additional content By implementing these tactics, several of our posts were able to gain Position 0 or 1 and garnered pretty significant spikes in traffic. An example of a post that benefitted from some extra love was our engine flush blog post. It became our hallmark for how we could optimize good writing on a relevant topic into a high-ranking and ultra-SERP-friendly post.

5. Invest in AMP (if you haven’t already) Not judging. Sometimes it takes months for larger organizations to adapt to changes that are for their benefit. When we implemented Accelerated Mobile Pages, it blew our search traffic through the roof.

But driving AMP traffic is not enough. We learned through the process that the standard AMP implementation strips out most aspects of the blog interface. As a result, we lost links to sign up for our blog emails or shop our e-commerce website (egad!). Even though our mobile traffic was up considerably, traffic to the website suffered or lagged. Unfortunately, we had a custom-built design. Changes would have to be manual, and we didn’t have a budget or the resources for that. So we focused on doing a better job of highlighting our website and products within our posts. 6. Use social media to gather ideas Yes, we promoted our posts on social, but we also used social media to curate ideas. Some ideas were published. As a thank you, we embedded shout-outs in the post and on social media to the source. It was a way of making our posts feel personal to our audience.

7. Add more pep to your blog email newsletter Consistency is cool, but we tried to throw an element of surprise and delight into our blog emails. This meant taking time to create a clear and compelling reason why the recipient should open the email — not just listing new posts. Since there isn’t a lot of change month-to-month in the industry, we got creative. Each week I played with subject lines that were timely, relevant, fun, or attention-grabbing. I backed those up with a standard pre-header/teaser for consistency. Some subject lines we used included: Spit into this tube, we'll build a car for you.Remember this classic SNL skit?Cruisers, Firearms, and CashCan your truck go 500,000 miles? I also used the blog newsletter as a channel to curate and promote older, evergreen posts when relevant, which helped bring fresh eyes to existing material. 8. Do one thing at a time We split our goals into our top priorities each year, and focused on that. Once we achieved the first goal, we shifted focus to the next priority. Year one, our focus was growing traffic from search engine results pages and social. To drive traffic, we created search-optimized, evergreen posts and chose relevant topics with significant search volume. We also held team sessions on beginner SEO where we went over best practices and gave the team access to easy keywording tools (I used Spyfu). We propelled our organic search traffic after a year of consistently following this protocol.

In year two, our goal was driving sign-ups. We created premium content and leveraged social to capture some of our fans through lead ads tied to blog content. These tactics drove our blog subscriber list up by 44%. The third year, we focused on increasing the blog’s contribution to sales. We put our efforts into highlighting products in the blog email, publishing product-centric posts, and including very clear and compelling calls-to-action to shop our e-commerce website. We gamified our team’s participation by establishing a blogger leaderboard and highlighting up-and-coming creators, or those whose posts were doing well across different metrics. Could we have done this all concurrently? Probably. But that would have required more time and resources than what we had.

“Sexy” is what you make of it

For us, creating blog posts was something a team of volunteers contributed to between a myriad of other tasks that were actually on our job descriptions. But we grew the channel into a source of considerable traffic for the company. We rallied around an unsexy topic — synthetic oil — and turned it into a creative outlet that moved product. The project also sparked a team of empowered creators, stakeholders, and in-house champions across departments who were fired up by the results of a motley crew of writers, DIY-ers, and tinkerers.

CYL6 and FEH Anniversary thoughts:

- I’m very happy with the final result - although I really would’ve enjoyed having Bernadetta get 2nd place over F!Byleth but that’s okay. I find it ironic that the vast majority of F!Byleth’s support came from Japan when the fanbase often claims that Bernadetta’s popularity mostly stems from Japan (in reality, it’s because a large percentage of people who have Bernadetta as their favourite character do so because they relate to her anxiety - which means they don’t post stuff online as often, thus making her support less vocal and more of a silent majority. I mean, that’s a big part of why she’s my favourite 3H character.)

- I’ll almost certainly pick Brave A!Tiki when the time comes. Fun fact: Adult Tiki has outscored Young Tiki in every CYL event yet IS kept favouring Young Tiki anyway.

- I wonder why the anniversary FEH Channels never get Feh to read out the winners - the voice actresses only have to record 4 lines that could quickly be added to the video. It doesn’t matter too much, but I would’ve liked to hear Feh get excited while reading each name.

- Soleil stays in the top 100 at #80. Ayra is also in the top 100 still. They really should get alts by now.

- Is H!Nowi being botted in the A Hero Rises thing? She has ~4 times more votes than the next highest red unit and is nothing special combat-wise or, until now, popularity-wise. I voted for L!Sigurd for what it’s worth - he’s the only broken unit I don’t have (I have 2 F!Edelgards and 1 Yuri), excluding units with broken Duo skills because I usually can’t be bothered pressing extra buttons to use them.

- Plumeria as the red hero on the Hero Fest banner? Come on, where’s my L!Sigurd? Bridal Catria is an acceptable substitute though - I’ll summon for her.

- I’ll summon for a Green special hero. It has more of my favourites than the other colours (S!Larcei, P!Hinoka, N!Corrin and S!Inigo although I already have the latter) and the worst units still have good to excellent weapons.

- I already have ~300 orbs for my Soleil alt fund, so I’ll get plenty more from this - unless B!Catria takes all of them (which is very unlikely)

- The Awakening valentines looks neat. We get our first Lucina, Chrom, Lissa and non-Grima Robin seasonals sine 2017, and we finally get an Owain/Odin seasonal. All the art is excellent, but Lissa, F!Robin and Duo Chrom are excellent-er in my opinion - and Lissa is free!

- The World Mirror in Heroes Journey is whatever.

- The new Aether Raids maps look nice. I don’t really care about the tactical usage of them, just the aesthetics.

- The 4* special rate being used for old seasonals on seasonal banners is something I’ve been hoping for - I actually sent feedback to IS suggesting it last year before the summer banners.

- Seasonal banner revivals having double the chance of getting a 5* focus is also cool.

- Where did this month’s weapon refines go? I assume they’ll be announced at reset but for now I can pretend they’re never happening ever again! Or something like that.

Weird question but do you recommend a chrome book for like studying and work like that bc I’ve heard they can be slow

Hey, not weird at all! I just got mine mid March, but I haven’t noticed it being slow at all! My laptop completely died on me during midterm season and I had a ton of papers and online exams to do, so my plan was to just use this in the meantime and return it to best buy as soon as my work was done and then I could buy an actual laptop. I obviously decided to keep it. I would recommend using a Chromebook for schooling, but only if it’s not going to be your primary device at home like it is mine (if you spend a ton of time on it, anyway)

First off, before I go into pros and cons (no false sense of hope here… under the cut I’ll tell you everything I love about it and everything I hate or get annoyed at), I should mention I’m using the Samsung Chromebook Plus

All in all, I LOVE my chromebook. It’s got its flaws, but most of them have easy fixes. I hope this full length article helps you decide what to do! If your main concern is getting you through school/work, I say go for it!

8/10 would recommend! I’d love to say 10/10, but there are enough flaws that I can’t in good conscience tell you to go get yourself a chromebook knowing it does some real stupid stuff.

Pros:

lightweight - seriously, I spent all day on campus carrying my Dell around in my bookbag and I’ve never been one to have back problems but carrying it around all day hurt. Sometimes I’d literally just abandon my bookbag (with my laptop in it) in the hall in one of the academic buildings while I went to find something to eat all the way across campus. Like, seriously. According to google the UCF campus is 1415 acres. I don’t even feel weight from my Chromebook while I’m walking campus with it in my bag.

Convenience - It’s essentially half laptop, half tablet. You’re getting the best of both worlds. Google play store (so you can play games and use the device as an e-reader) but you also get the internet at full capacity rather than the dullness of a mobile browser.

Stylus apps - This stylus was a lifesaver for me last semester. I had college algebra last semester, and with math I’m always wasting a ton of paper, so I bought a whiteboard I could carry around with me but it took up too much space at the desks in classrooms. With a Chromebook, Google Keep (note taking app) is built in. when I didn’t feel like wasting space (and dropping my calculator, pen, eraser, markers, board) I could just pull up my stylus apps on half my screen and my math modules on the other half.

Also, have you seen my newer editing attempts? Working with just my finger on this device was already pretty good, compared to on my phone. But using the stylus helped me to get a clearer view of everything I was erasing and more wiggle control

Quick boot up time - In the manual, it claims that the chromebook boots up in 10 seconds. I’ve found that it takes about half that time to start up

2 in one - it does have 360 mode, so you don’t have to use it as a laptop all the time. In tablet mode, you get all the essential uses you get in laptop mode (except the ability to split the screen) plus you can use emojis on the touchscreen keyboard that pops up

Apple Music - On my samsung tablet, I can’t access apple music (the app shows up, but I can’t download it). On chromebook, I can. No itunes though, which is a bummer, but I don’t really need it.

Easy streaming - Watching Netflix/Hulu is such a breeze. I haven’t experienced any buffering issues like i constantly did with my last laptop

Amazing touchscreen - With my Dell laptop (which, again, gave out on me) my touch screen often had meltdowns or prevented my touchpad from working. Seeing as how Samsung has essential experience in touchscreen development, I’m not shocked that I’ve never had an issue with this touchscreen

Have trouble remembering urls? no more - Built into the computer, you have what appear to be google (and other brand) apps, but they’re actually shortcuts that take you directly to their respectful websites. Google drive (which is also built in through the files app), Lookout, Google Maps, Weather Channel, etc. I don’t use them, but it’s such a great gesture.

Memory - I use a lot of space and I haven’t even begun to run out yet! There’s also a slot for external memory (an SD card like what you’d insert into your phone something I wish Apple would do instead of making me pay for more storage every month. Unfortunately for me, this doesn’t work for apps. It’s only so that you have another storage method for your files. After my previous laptop died I lost all my running club pics, so with this chromebook, I have the option to just go ahead and save them directly to my SD card so that doesn’t happen again. It’s kind of like using a flash drive for safe keeping except, ya know, it’s not a flash drive replacement.

It’s made to fit YOU - If you don’t want someone to get into your files, they can’t. You sign in with your google account, but you CAN create additional user accounts (which includes a guest account)

Resetting the computer is easy! - You can’t go wrong. Your options are

restore default settings

COMPLETELY wipe the computer of all info (the option you’d choose if you wanted the get rid of the computer, so it’s essentially… factory reset)

Virus control - While there’s no harm in buying yourself an antivirus program, you don’t necessarily need it with Chromebook because google’s actively fighting off viruses for you. I started out using antivirus programs before I realized I didn’t need it. I haven’t had any issues at all with the security of my computer, with or without any kind of protection

Cons

Limited keys - You have to make sure you remember key combinations to perform certain tasks. For example, at first I thought I couldn’t get caps lock on this computer. To do that, it’s alt+search key. scroll to the top of the page? alt+ctrl+up arrow. screenshot in laptop mode? still can’t remember which symbol matches up with that one.

Ctrl Alt…. What? - You don’t have control alt delete anymore. The task manager apparently can only be accessed through settings, which if your chromebook freaks out on you either wait for it to settle down or shut it down are your only two options. Which brings us to con #3.

Freaking out - Lately I’ve been noticing that if I have too many apps open at once, my chromebook will stop funtioning properly for a couple minutes and it’ll do one of two things

shut all my apps down without warning

system reboot

Google Print - It wants to hijack your printer, but I refuse to give google access to store info from my printer. I have my Canon hooked up to my chromebook, but I won’t allow google access to it. They’re basically asking to save the info of everything you print to their servers and your printer will only be available for devices you allow access to your google print account (can’t be set up from chromebook anyway).

USB C ports - Okay admittedly I do like these ports, It serves as the charging port, so you can charge the computer on either side. You can also use it as a normal USB port so long as you find devices with the usb c tip BUT this means you need to buy an adapter if you want to use HDMI or a flash drive/other devices that use usb 2.0/3.0 ports

Speaker location - They’re on the bottom, so as long as you’re not covering them up, your audio should be pretty decent

Google Chrome - What I LOVED about using Chrome on actual laptops was that you could have several different user profiles under the same google email on your browser. I had 2. One for my personal multi fandom tumblr, and the other for my marrish tumblr accounts. That way I could just switch windows to change tumblr accounts. You can’t do that on Chromebook. You’d need to create different accounts for your log in screen… which… is it really worth creating new emails? (says the girl who creates a new email everytime she wants to get a new free trial) Now my only option is to use 3 different devices for different tumblr accounts (I just created a choices safe main blog so I can actually find choices posts without doing a ton of searching, so I need an extra layer now)

Microsoft Office/One Drive - Who’s that? We don’t like her apparently. Seriously. You can’t have microsoft office, because all downloads come from the play store. If you like the mobile version of Word, congrats! This system is a winner for you! If not, you can always use the online version on Outlook’s website if you use that. Don’t even THINK about trying to download the one drive app. Seriously, it doesn’t work on Chromebook. I’ve been trying to sign into it since I first bought this laptop. Only when I looked at the horrible reviews last week did I realize I’d NEVER be able to log into the app.

Also streaming - There’s this god awful sound that sometimes plays when streaming on the CBS website. It usually isn’t there, but I gave up on watching SWAT (sorry shemar and criminal minds, I still love you) because I never know if this’ll be the moment when that screeching will begin. It only happens on the CBS website though (while it’s hooked up to my tv)

Ooh speaking of hooking up to my tv - HDMI sucks. that’s all. I hate the border that surrounds the chromebook’s visual. And if you’re watching videos that already aren’t full screen? Good luck streaming comfortably.

Digital Textbook app used for UCF - Okay so we use Yuzu for digital textbooks at my uni and I can’t figure out how to get the app to let me in. Pretty sure that’s the app’s fault though. You have to sign in through a mobile browser to use the app, but the chromebook uses a full capacity desktop browser so I CANT log into the app. I have to use the online version if I take my chromebook to school with me instead of my actual tablet. So whether or not this is the chromebook’s fault is a bit iffy.

Here are some photos for proof if you need to see what you’d be signing up for!

Nobody can….

Instead of a “start” menu… we have a search menu. The top bar shows your most recently used apps.

How Do I Create Content material Infused with Search engine marketing Greatest Practices?

Let’s get to the enjoyable stuff. Right here’s a step-by-step information on how Search engine marketing professionals create content material.

Over the previous 20 years as a contract author, head of content material at an company, and as an company proprietor, I’ve found that the writing half is definitely the best. It’s the entire preparation, group, and marketing technique that takes essentially the most brainpower.

When you’ll find a author or staff of writers who’ve a deep data of Search engine marketing, the topic, and writing, you hit the trifecta. I’ve labored with lots of of writers and solely discovered just a few of those unicorns.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Discovering skilled writers inside a specialised area of interest is easy. Discovering these skilled in Search engine marketing is difficult.

Meaning you might need totally different individuals concerned in making a single piece of well-optimized content material.

Listed below are the steps high Search engine marketing professionals take to create the very best content material, with Search engine marketing baked proper in.

Perceive Your Viewers and Their Targets

Earlier than one phrase, video clip, or graphic is created, you could perceive the panorama of your viewers and their objectives.

Ask:

The place do they hang around online?

When are they usually partaking on these channels?

How can I attain them there?

What issues are they seeking to remedy?

The place are they situated?

Why do they want these issues solved?

From there, you achieve a way more centered thought of simply who your viewers truly is, and whether or not your writing will resonate with them.

Discover these solutions by aggressive analysis, looking online boards like Reddit and Quora, roaming social channels by in style hashtags inside that trade, conducting surveys by different companies, or just reviewing Google search outcomes as your excellent reader will do.

Whereas looking, be aware of their largest issues or issues.

For instance, whereas making a running a blog marketing campaign for a motorcycle-specific tenting shopper, we found that the viewers —largely middle-aged males with the funds to journey for weeks at a time — skilled just a few particular issues.

One recurring problem pertained to the bags itself; it’s difficult packing tents and tenting gear on a motorcycle. The load of that gear and how one can do issues like establishing a tent within the correct location are frequent ache factors.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Understanding this, we have been in a position to create a robust content material marketing technique that answered all of those questions by blogs and movies, then amplify that content material within the areas we discovered these individuals hanging out.

Right here’s a simplified five-step course of:

Uncover who the viewers is.

Perceive their issues.

Create high quality and unique content material to unravel these issues (run the whole lot by a plagiarism device).

Ensure that content material makes use of finest Search engine marketing practices.

Amplify that content material the place your readers hang around online.

When you perceive this, the remainder of the steps to creating content material like an Search engine marketing professional change into a lot simpler.

Perceive Find out how to Carry out Key phrase Analysis

There are dozens of opinions and totally different factors of view on how one can finest carry out key phrase analysis. In the event you’re simply getting began, this key phrase analysis information for rookies might help.

After getting the fundamentals down, use these subsequent tricks to degree up your key phrase analysis sport.

1. Create a Purchaser Persona & Goal Key phrases In direction of That Persona

In the event you perceive your viewers, that is easy and might even be a little bit of enjoyable.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Neglect about Search engine marketing for a bit, and assume like a fiction author. Create a single fictional character and profile her or him.

Again to my bike topic from above — I created “Pirsig” (in honor of thinker and fellow biking fanatic Robert M. Pirsig). Now, create some questions and solutions on your character:

What’s Pirsig looking for online and what key phrases could also be related to mentioned searches? (On this case, [motorcycles good for long-distance travel], [lightweight tents], [waterproof motorcycle jackets], and so forth.)

What kind of calls to motion will seize Pirsig’s consideration and pique his curiosity?

What sort of imagery would resonate with Pirsig?

Now take that listing and run it by your favourite key phrase device. If you already know your viewers, the instruments will naturally present your listing or higher variations that persons are truly looking for.

2. Deal with 80% Evergreen Key phrases; 20% Trending Key phrases

Focus 80% of your technique on the evergreen key phrases that you already know shall be dependable for the long run, and the opposite 20% on trending key phrases.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Then create your content material round that 80/20 break up.

Pirsig will at all times search for bike tenting ideas and how-to articles to make his travels higher. However he may even be looking for the newest touring bike to take him on that journey or the latest waterproof gear, which affords simple targets for trending key phrases.

For this reason key phrase analysis ought to be carried out persistently over the course of an ongoing content material marketing campaign, particularly for the trending key phrases. Don’t neglect to make use of Google Traits to find further key phrases.

three. Don’t Go Loopy Over Quantity

Except you’re the highest participant in your trade with zillions of pages and hyperlinks, don’t chase high-volume key phrases which can be not possible to rank for. Head for the low-to-mid-tier key phrases based mostly on the costs of your companies or merchandise.

If one lead is price a $5,000 consulting service, there’s nothing unsuitable with chasing key phrases with a quantity of 20 and even decrease.

However in case you’re promoting a $5 product, in fact, you’d need a lot increased quantity – except that $5 product propelled purchasers right into a gross sales funnel, educated them, and led them to buy your $5,000 consulting companies.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Each idea is totally different, however having a robust understanding of your merchandise/companies and viewers makes this a lot simpler.

four. All the time Use “Related Keywords”

Most key phrase analysis instruments have a “related keywords” part. Use these all through your content material, no matter whether or not you’re making a weblog, video description, or another kind of content material.

Associated key phrases assist display the content material’s relevance to the subject as a complete.

Additionally, for even deeper content material constructed round a “Topic Cluster” technique mentioned beneath, search these associated key phrases on Google and also you’ll uncover extra of what persons are asking and looking for, in addition to which matters your opponents are creating content material round.

5. Monitor Key phrase Efficiency Weekly

It is best to at all times know the place your key phrases are rating. Instruments like Semrush make it simple to create reviews concerning the key phrases you’re monitoring.

I usually goal for weekly monitoring because of fluctuation, particularly with newer web sites. I do observe the very best ROI key phrases each day, as a drastic drop can have a extra severe influence.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

In the event you lose or achieve positions, take a deeper look. Did you achieve positions? Discover out which piece of content material is succeeding so you may drive extra exterior hyperlinks in direction of it and amplify it on social media.

Misplaced positions? Verify in case you misplaced any hyperlinks, or what competitor is outranking you for that particular key phrase. Discover that piece of content material and see how one can tweak it to carry out higher.

Are opponents providing extra helpful content material? Are they utilizing higher header tags? How about associated key phrases, pictures, and alt textual content?

Analyze and make your piece higher, then proceed to trace to see your outcomes. Attempt to do just one change at a time so you may see what labored. Search engine marketing is a long-term play the place you need to discover out what’s working and maintain that system going.

For this reason it’s so important to trace progress and frequently revamp older content material all year long.

Bear in mind, key phrase analysis shouldn’t be a one-and-done factor.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Search engine marketing professionals perceive that key phrases change over time because of trending or out-of-date matters and product/service adjustments. Consistently monitor and keep in mind to replace your present content material with contemporary key phrases typically (extra mentioned beneath).

Perceive Matter Clusters Technique

The Matter Cluster technique for creating content material principally means you create “pillar” items of content material that function your core items round a subject, then help these most important items with numerous items centered on extra granular info.

This helps you naturally create content material for these with deeper data about the principle pillar piece and offers you helpful content material for these in a stronger place to purchase.

For instance, in case you are marketing running a blog companies, you can start with a pillar piece concerning the main advantages of running a blog and ROI. From there, you can create “cluster” items of content material in a hierarchical method from these with extra reputation (and consequently extra search quantity) all the way down to extra particular matters with much less search quantity that serve a particular want.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Your cluster matters might embody content material on making a sustainable weblog technique, how-to articles on key phrase analysis, and recommendation on creating meta descriptions for blogs, for instance.

This technique works finest if you’re in a position to internally hyperlink to the pillar piece with numerous anchor textual content, which is one thing we focus on beneath.

Perceive Title Tags and Meta Descriptions

Two of the best indicators to each search engines and the customers are your title tags and meta descriptions. These are the primary components a searcher sees at any time when they’re looking for one thing.

Don’t simply slop these collectively after spending helpful time creating the precise piece of content material.

Ensure your title tag garners quick consideration. Create curiosity, or be direct like “How-to” no matter.

Promoting Headlines that Make You Wealthy by David Garfinkel and Phrases That Promote by Richard Bayan are at all times inside attain of my standup desk.

Most Search engine marketing professionals goal between 50-60 characters (not phrases) when creating title tags. However a preferred piece on Search Engine Journal reported that Google says there’s no restrict on title tag size.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Bear in mind to at all times use the goal key phrase within the title tag, and likewise make use of modifiers resembling “guide,” “checklist,” “review,” “how to,” and so forth. It’s additionally a smart follow to make use of the identical goal key phrase inside the meta description.

Though Google confirms this isn’t a direct rating sign, it is likely one of the Most worthy oblique rating indicators. And that concentrate on key phrase shall be daring inside the meta description, drawing additional consideration to it inside search outcomes.

Ensure your meta description rapidly engages the reader and conjures up them to click on by to the piece of content material. Create curiosity and entertain, and at all times place a CTA in there.

Bear in mind, you solely have round 150 characters to work with. Seize the reader’s consideration as quickly as attainable, which is one thing your title tag ought to do additionally.

Be sure to aren’t so centered on rating that your grammar suffers. Meta descriptions ought to be written for readers first.

Perceive Find out how to Optimize On-Web page Search engine marketing Components and Content material Format/Design for UX

Search engine marketing professionals know content material move and format are wanted for robust UX and to inform search engines rapidly what’s vital on every web page.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

That is the place understanding on-page Search engine marketing might help maintain your content material forward of the competitors.

A part of this consists of correctly utilizing the next components:

Shorter paragraphs

Don’t use “walls” of textual content. Relatively, maintain paragraphs brief such as you would see in these archaic pages of a newspaper.

Use of header tags

Most professionals solely use H2 and H3 tags. This retains the content material organized and likewise sends indicators to search engines about what’s extra vital. All the time attempt to use your goal key phrase in these, together with “related keywords” that help your goal key phrase.

Inner and exterior hyperlinks

Don’t overstuff with hyperlinks, and assume logically about the place to make use of them – the place you may add extra worth to the reader. There’s no magic variety of hyperlinks, although it’s smart to get no less than one for each 100 phrases if warranted. This is usually a mixture of inside and exterior hyperlinks.

When linking internally, by no means use the precise anchor textual content for a similar inside web page. All the time minimize the area identify out (searchenginejournal.com) and begin on the slash (/) to chop down the work for code readers. Once more, take into consideration the person and the place you may add essentially the most helpful info from one other inside web page.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

In case you are posting new content material, at all times return to a excessive authority web page, and hyperlink to the brand new web page from there. It’ll assist present search engines what you assume is efficacious and allow customers to search out your most useful, helpful content material.

Optimize pictures

Preserve them at a smaller dimension for faster loading. Some religiously use 1920 x 1080, others 880 x 550. Discover what’s finest for you.

All the time use a file identify that displays the title (content-creation-guide-for-seo-pros-1), write descriptive alt textual content with associated key phrases, and use a caption when attainable.

URL

Ensure it’s brief and options your goal key phrase. Most content material administration methods like WordPress or Shopify auto-create these and so they’re advantageous, however typically it’s smart to make them shorter. Simply be sure they at all times characteristic your goal key phrase.

Create a Content material Calendar and Abide by Timelines

To rank excessive in search outcomes, Search engine marketing professionals perceive the significance of persistently and commonly including new content material. For this reason each group ought to use a easy mission administration calendar.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

All you want is a straightforward Excel or Google Sheet with the next:

Goal Key phrase.

Goal most important “pillar” web page help.

Date Outsourced.

Date Due.

Edited.

Off to Shopper (or Uploaded).

Stay.

Feedback.

Consider your running a blog technique when it comes to a publishing workflow.

As with the whole lot, the quantity of contemporary content material you’ll produce is dependent upon price range. Those that can create no less than one new weblog per week (or extra) get to the highest of the rankings sooner, particularly in the event that they perceive amplification (extra beneath) to garner robust and respected hyperlinks from related publications inside their area of interest.

Construct consistency into if you publish, too. My staff digs deep into analytics and A/B checks the whole lot to search out out essentially the most optimum time for potential readers.

After all, that is a lot simpler upon getting created a following. However make it a follow instantly, and the well timed side of delivering content material to readers will provide larger rewards sooner.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Don’t simply put up when it’s handy or as content material is created; be sure it’s on a well timed schedule and also you’re publishing on the similar time and day every day.

Revisit and Revamp Older Content material Quarterly, or Extra

What does “ongoing SEO” imply? First, it means revisiting and revamping your older content material.

Relying on how a lot content material is created, typically this refreshing of older content material happens month-to-month however it may very well be quarterly or yearly, as effectively.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Once more, all of it is dependent upon how a lot contemporary content material is being created. If a shopper is creating three new items of content material weekly, many older and higher-ranking items have to be freshened up with new hyperlinks.

Info adjustments continuously, and typically a tweak of a key phrase in a header tag can drive stronger rankings.

Don’t simply create content material and anticipate it to continuously ship certified visitors to your web site. A competitor will at all times come alongside and rob a spot, or an algorithm change will ship as soon as high-ranking content material to Google’s again pages.

When you’ve got extraordinarily robust content material with excessive ROI worth that has dropped in rankings, it’s possible you’ll think about refreshing the complete piece.

The components right here that has labored for a lot of of my purchasers is straightforward:

Rewrite about 25% of the article, together with a brand new and improved introduction.

Rewrite the meta description, ensuring to concentrate to opponents who’re outranking you.

Refresh inside hyperlinks with stronger ones.

Refresh all exterior hyperlinks if they’re older than three years or so.

Ensure all details, figures, and analysis are from the newest and most respected sources.

The most important parts of any ongoing digital marketing marketing campaign ought to be centered on contemporary and helpful content material, delivered on a constant foundation. However the Search engine marketing professional will take this one step additional and do the identical for revamping older content material.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Perceive Amplification

Content material that’s not seen can’t carry out.

I’ve learn some superb and fascinating content material on web sites that had poor technical Search engine marketing, and stumbled throughout good content material that doesn’t appear to have been promoted through social media or e mail marketing. That’s a disgrace and a waste of time (and money!) for everybody.

Search engine marketing professionals perceive the necessity for fixed content material amplification. Instruments make this easy by enabling your to auto-generate posts and ship them into the world of social media, however a personally crafted message will at all times trump an auto-generated one (and most paid advertisements!).

The minute a brand new piece of content material publishes, be sure it hits all social media channels ASAP. Each enterprise can have a favourite channel however Fb, LinkedIn, and Twitter ought to all be examined out.

Don’t have the time to do that? Rent a social media professional who understands the ability of your chosen channel, and using hashtags, constant posting, and, once more, correct grammar.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Nothing can destroy a model picture, whether or not private or for enterprise, sooner than unhealthy grammar and sloppy spelling.

And always remember concerning the energy of e mail marketing. That’s your private viewers and the extra you feed them helpful content material, the longer they’ll be your buyer and unfold the phrase about your small business (otherwise you!).

Concluding Ideas

No matter what kind of content material you’re making an attempt to create, you could at all times assume like an Search engine marketing professional so you may get that hard-earned piece of content material rating effectively. And the upper the rankings, the upper the ROI.

Commercial

Proceed Studying Beneath

Constant, Search engine marketing-friendly content material is a part of a stable longer-term plan on the planet of digital marketing, not like paid promoting channels that disappear as soon as the price range runs out.

When created with a few of the ideas above – and revisited/revamped typically – your content material efforts can certainly outpace all different types of digital marketing and promoting. And your competitors.

From the Tooth to The Long Tail - What We’ve Done and Where We’re Going

Since our launch on September 12, 2017, Tooth and Tail has seen over 100,000 copies sold, a resilient competitive community, 16 major patches with bug fixes, balance changes, and feature additions, numerous award nominations, and a growing mod community.

Looking to the future, we know we have some challenges ahead of us. Our player community is still very active via our discord channel, but the active Steam/GOG player base has been trending downwards. We still have a number of major bugs on the PS4 version. And the Story Mode content is still receiving complaints about inconsistent difficulty scaling. Let's take a quick look at the story so far and then figure out where to go from here!

Dont forget, you can follow development via our public roadmap or say hi to the devs in Discord!

Here's a recap of major developments and accomplishments since launch:

Launch Day

Destructoid gives us a 9.5 - "Tooth and Tail has rekindled my love of RTS games." Eurogamer, Gamespot, PC Gamer and Hardcore Gamer pile on the praise.

Launch day September 12: Top player ZenoAkoop does a 24-hour stream

We peak at 985 simultaneous players, higher than Monaco's launch day peak

Tooth and Tail Shirts went on sale via Fan Gamer.

Season One

(WARNING, strong language in this video)

twitch_clip

Total Biscuit and Artosis develop a rivalry, Artosis cleans up.

Our largest community tournament has 40 entrants and is won by ChipFromSpace.

Tooth and Tail launches in Chinese and Korean, and later adds Spanish, German, and Italian. Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Russian, and Turkish are in progress.

Community members Glyde, BestTeaMaker, and Delthius show up to help us out as we demo the game at TwitchCon in Long Beach

End of Year

Let's just show off the 2017 nomination list:

2018 Independent Games Festival - Finalist: Excellence in Narrative, Honorable Mention: Visual Art, Audio IGN - Nominee: 2017 Best Strategy Game The Game Awards - Nominee: 2017 Best Strategy Game PCGamer - Nominee: 2017 Best Strategy Game PC Master Race - Nominee: 2017 Best Strategy Game Hardcore Gamer - Nominee: 2017 Best Strategy Game Total Biscuit - Top Ten Games of the Year - #8

youtube

Season Two

We launched Ranked Season 2 on December 19th with an MMR system closer to traditional Ranked ladders. Other major developments:

The Tooth and Tail Official Soundtrack launched on CD and Vinyl (also available digitally directly from Austin Wintory or on Steam

We launched GOG/Steam Crossplay, which is powering development of PS4 to PC crossplay, and hopefully more platforms to come!

We've been featured in four major Steam sales (Winter, Midweek Madness, Lunar New Year, and an IGF nominee sale), a Chrono.gg sale headlined by Total Biscuit, and one major sale on PS4 (Outside is Over-Rated), bolstering our player community. You can bet that there will be more to come!

Campfires, new tiles sets, and a revamped world generation algorithm were added to ranked and unranked play.

Story Mode was completely rebalanced to bring it in line with current multiplayer balance.

ToothAndTailTV, a fan-run channel, casts a massive North America vs Europe tournament, which culminates in a final game matchup of the titans, ChipFromSpace [NA] vs ArbuzBudesh [EU]

What's Next?

With Tooth and Tail starting to enter its "long tail" life cycle, we're taking a broad approach to keeping a healthy player community.

Crossplay We're finally moving towards combining our PS4 and PC communities via crossplay, powered by GOG Galaxy. This means that anytime there is a sale on any platform, the increased player count will benefit all platforms.

Mod Support

(Modded units by Glorious AYY FB)

Our latest patch (1.1.4: Eat Crow) was largely inspired by a balance mod that our player community put together. I hope that our community can continue to help us balance the game, as well as create and test new features, including new units.

In fact, a new Hedgehog unit is currently being developed and tested by community members. All of Tooth and Tail's assets are in human readable XML files and PNGs, so adding new stuff or modifying existing units is accessible to everyone.

Community Tournaments and Games via our Discord Channel

We have possibly the most tricked out Discord channel in gaming, due to the efforts of our community, lead by community manager, Brian Franco (mastastealth). The short list of Discord features:

Pocketbot (a Discord bot to help the community learn about the game and keep the server in order)

Automated weekly PB Cup tournaments

Support for player-run tournaments

ReplayUltima (replay analyzer)

In development is Pocket World, another Discord integrated tool that will allow players to fight for the four in-game factions simply by playing the game. Players will take and lose territory for their team as they play.

New Platforms

Still nothing to announce, but yes, we're investigating new platforms for Tooth and Tail. Stay tuned.

New Feature -- Standard Seeds in Story Mode

The Story Mode balance still needs quite a bit of work, and I'm determined to make the campaign be something that garners universal praise -- it's very close, but with a few things that can just ruin the experience for some people. So I plan to rebalance things again, and offer the ability to play each map on a "standard" -- and fair -- seed. I hope to add leaderboards to the standard seeds as well.

Balance

You all know that I pay a lot of attention to the game's balance and I like to tweak it. Sometimes for the better, and sometimes for the weird. Expect this to continue.

A short history of the patches and their notable changes:

1.0.2: Howling Nerf -- Single Player Changes, Bug Fixes

1.0.3: Kasha So Sad -- Reduced Landmine range, Kasha nerf, Wolf re-stim removed

1.0.4: Butterbomb -- Campfires, tile sets added to multiplayer, Boar bomb added, boar slow, toads get structure crit, barbed wire redesign, lizard range 1, snakes can't hit structures, owl bomb removed, fox hp mega-nerfed, warren health scales by tier

1.0.5: Chicken Mole -- Flag customization, Editor Preview, Discord Status

1.0.6: Lizard Love -- Tier 3 build time increased, lizard buff, boar no longer slow

1.0.7: 鼹鼠 두더지 MOLE -- Chinese and Korean added, focus fire improvements, lizards range 2, another mole revamp, major chameleon buff

1.0.8: Nibbles and Tweaks -- Starting Farms always adjacent, major boar buff, pigeon AI changes

1.1.0: ('Tis the) Season 2 -- Ladder reset, unit and player stats added, MMR, Map Fairness

1.1.1: GOG Crossplay -- Crossplay, Tier 2 Artillery with scatter shot, Fox rooting, Landmine vision, Tier 3 build time increased, Warren health returned to 50

1.1.2: Snek House -- Snakes can poison structures again, Artillery returned to tier 3

1.1.3: Diamonds are a Lizard's Best Friend -- Single player rebalanced to fit Multiplayer stats, Burrowing to Allied bases, lizards range slightly reduced, MG nerf

1.1.4: Eat Crow -- Swift reduced to 1.75x speed, toad redesigned, boar given semi-agile, artillery range increased to 10

What do you want to see?

So what do you want to see out of Tooth and Tail in the months to come? What was your favorite balance patch? What kind of mods would you like to see? Let me know in the comments!

90 Days of Ableton: Day 0 & 1

I downloaded Ableton in the late evening on May 10th, so I’m going to call May 11th, my first full day with the software, Day 1.

May 10th was Day 0.

I did spend a couple hours on Day 0 trying to get comfortable with the program. I’ve never used a full DAW before - I’ve only noodled around with free web apps like Soundation.

So I had a basic sense of how to add instruments or channels, how to create and edit clips, and how to create notes with the draw mode/pen tool.

I decided to start by making something slow & chill.

I had a basic structure already in mind:

Start with one nice chord pattern with a little texture, a few passing notes, to make it interesting: 2, 4, or 8 measures long, as an introduction. Play it by itself.

Then, after 2-4 measures, layer it with beats.

Then layer it with more filled-out chords.

Then layer it with melodic lines. Make the melody another repeating loop, 2-4 measures long.

After the melody plays a couple times, start to tweak things. Change some of the moving notes, make sequences go up instead of down, or down instead of up.

Then add a few more percussive elements, transitions, and little instrumental call-outs to give it some life.

Every 2-4 measures, add a new instrument or effect without breaking the underlying pattern. Familiar foundation + novelty = brain takes interest.

Once the pattern repeats enough that you get tired of it, it’s time for a B section!

Now start removing instruments. Allow the more recent elements to play, or play with variations, and switch up the basic loops you started with. (i.e. change the bassline, change the chords, change the beats - you want complementary, but different.)

Preserve some elements, change others. Keep it on a 2, 4, or 8 measure cycle. You want new things to happen every 2 measures.

Re-introduce elements you haven’t heard in a while on top of new ones for a satisfying climax.

As for an outro? I basically just let the B section play out, and then I went back to the chords from the intro but I gave them to a different instrument, and I silenced everything else...dropped out the bass, the percussion, everything except a little ambiance. It worked, even though it was abrupt.

By the end of Day 1, I felt I had something cohesive and more-or-less “finished,” though it was very unrefined.

I lowered some of the track volumes (bass, shamisen, soft horn, bottle blower) but not all of them (I’m writing this from the perspective of Day 3 so now I know that the mixer in the red is something to correct), I didn’t do any panning, I didn’t double any instruments. I didn’t do anything with gates or envelopes or pitch shifting.

It’s basically a compilation of sounds and a nice tune but it’s not edited, mastered, or mixed in any significant way.

What I Started With:

Ableton Live 10 Trial (free)

a pretty chord riff: mine was inspired by an old j-rock song ain’t afraid to die by dir en grey

(I figured out the exact notes of the chords (I have a good ear but I do not have perfect pitch, people) with this synthesia video breakdown of the song.)

a few general ideas for how to structure it (listed above)

a few general ideas for organizing my workstation

basic background in music performance/theory (I know that not all aspiring music producers may have this, and I am lucky to; but it’s also likely that many musicians are drawn to this work)

What I Learned:

ONE. I’m not sure why the basic template, when you open a new live set, is two Midi tracks and two Audio tracks. The first habit I started was deleting one Midi and one Audio track, silencing the two remaining, and using them as temporary storage tracks to hold midi & audio samples/clips that I wanted to use but hadn’t assigned to an instrument. Nobody told me to do that. It just made sense to me and maybe in the future I’ll find out that it’s actually a bad idea, but it works right now.

TWO. The basic trial version of Ableton supposedly doesn’t have as much extra content (sounds, samples, instruments) as the full one, but it’s still pretty loaded. [Disclaimer: Nobody is paying me to say this.] A really huge amount of time was just taken up with me sorting through all the stuff that came pre-installed, listening to samples, and selecting what might sound good in the context of my own song. (HOWEVER - I did want more orchestral instrument options. Not enough brass and winds, and the strings could definitely be improved...)

THREE. It’s really easy to get distracted by other cool sounds. I ended up saving a bunch of specific samples to my user library (or creating a new live set to play around with it a little bit) because hearing certain unrelated sounds inevitably triggered new musical ideas that weren’t appropriate for the current composition.

FOUR. If I didn’t have a specific idea for a song in my head (which I did), it would have been so much harder and taken so much longer to create something cohesive. Going in with 1. a basic chord progression and 2. a couple basic melodic “cues” that I lifted from the lead vocals in the original song made it MUCH easier to fill in everything else around it. I deliberately took inspiration from another song because I wanted to focus on creating something pretty that would teach me how to use the software without getting too bogged down in composition.

FIVE. It was easy to get distracted and to flounder until I “landed” on exactly the sound I needed, or the sound I didn’t know I needed until I heard it. Example: I didn’t plan out a shamisen track, but once I saw the shamisen instrument in my library, I knew I was gonna have a good time with it. Or the chimes. As soon as I heard the chimes, I knew exactly where to put them and I didn’t swerve.

SIX. One of the most time-consuming things was just locking in the actual notes. I was used to the draw tool in another program that streamlined drawing notes, but I felt like it was clunkier and slower-going in Ableton because there were so many more refined options.

As a result, I learned/realized that I could use my computer keyboard in lieu of a Midi keyboard (which I don’t own), so I ended up composing that way. When there were tempo or rhythmic issues, I fixed them by ear, manually re-positioning notes...(I can only assume there’s a shortcut I don’t know about yet because if it’s not clear I’m a total noob) and zooming in closer for more refined adjustments.

SEVEN. Zooming! I learned a few basic keyboard shortcuts which helped SO much. On a PC:

ctrl+alt gives you a grabby hand and if you hold those down while you click with the mouse you can move all around the track without accidentally clicking or highlighting or deleting anything

ctrl + mouse scroll wheel (or + / - buttons) lets you zoom in and out, in the track itself and in the midi note editor.

EIGHT. One of those “learning by doing” things - day 0 & 1 were just immersing myself in the system and figuring out how to actually do the thing I needed. Some of my early questions:

why is my master track mixer red when everything else is green? (answer: you need to lower individual track volumes well below 0, like at least -8 to -12.)

how do I make the display go left-right with a timeline instead of up-down? (answer: tab button to switch between views)

how do I make this note sound less harsh? (answer: probably has something to do with the velocity? and/or the attack?)

how do I make this sound linger instead of clip off suddenly? (answer: hold the note until the end of the phrase, or lengthen the clip to draw it out - yeah I’m not touching reverb yet)

how do I lengthen or shorten clips? (answer: there’s a function with ctrl + E to slice something if you want to chop it up, but otherwise just grabbing it by the edge and dragging left or right will work. note this is for the clip...not the music/notes.)

how do I make the instrument panel come up and how do I hear it and how do I use my keyboard as a midi controller?

answer:

Select your instrument from the library sidebar and drag it to the place under the other tracks where it says “drop files and devices here”

Then, double click on that track

This should create a new “clip” which you can expand or move around to a different place in the timeline.

There’s a little keyboard along the left side of the “midi clip editor” which pops up at the bottom of the screen when you create a new clip. Click the headphone icon above the keyboard (which lets you hear yourself play it) AND press the M button on your keyboard to turn the Computer Midi Keyboard on and off. (You should see it light up in the top right corner, near the CPU load meter.)

Then, you should be able to use your keyboard to play notes - a s d f g h j k as the basic notes of the c major scale (i.e. white keys from C - C; easy to remember since f and g correspond to actual F and G) and W E T Y U as black keys.

To actually record what you’re playing, hit the record button. Personally I recommend setting the metronome (upper left corner) to count off one bar before the recording starts.

I will share my finished “song” from the end of Day One, but before I do, in the next post I’m going to break down what happened on Day Two to show you how I improved even further upon my work.

Then you can hear the two side by side, really proving how much progress one person can make in a single day!

It’s Friday, I’m in love… (1990s #1)

Finally, right?? The ’90s. Boo-yah. (We actually said that back then. It was usually after a particularly tasty dunk in a pickup hoops game. #whitemencantjump)

I was a baby at the end of 1969. I covered part of that decade in a playlist. I was a kid in the ’70s. I covered that decade once or twice. I was a teenager in the ’80s. And I covered that decade once, twice, and thrice.

I was an adult in the ’90s. And it’s about gotdam time that I gave that era some love.

The ’80s were weird. The ’90s were normal. I graduated college in 1991. That was normal. I graduated law school in 1994, and again in 1995. The first time was normal, and the second time was only weird because who reups for an extra year of law school. (Tbh, it was waaay better than the first three. JY and KB, what’s up?) Then I spent a lost year sending resumés and working a few odd jobs. I guess that was weird, but it wasn’t. I had a best friend who seemed just as adrift, but also more grounded, as me. And he loved music.

MRH was a force. He knew stuff. When I (thought that I) was all alt listening to Frank Black and the Smashing Pumpkins, he was all indie listening to Pavement and Superchunk. The first tape that he gave me had Slanted and Enchanted on the a-side and No Pocky for Kitty on the b-side. I wore out that tape until I bought the cds. I paid him back with a mix tape of rap that he refused to listen to. He was a snob, and he never let you borrow any cds. He’d copy them for you, though – often on shuffle, so the tracklist was all wrong. (I’m still surprised that “All Shook Down” isn’t the first track on the Replacements’ All Shook Down.)

In 1996, he and I both moved to Chicago. Different neighborhoods, but North-side close enough that we got together every week or so – mostly at his place in Lincoln Park, which was closer to the Lakeview Reckless Records shop. We saw alot of Sox games (Paul Konerko’s homer off Kerry Wood at the Cell when the interleague series mattered was so great), and we saw alot of shows. A few stick out: Teenage Fanclub with Yo La Tengo opening at Metro; Sebadoh with Rodan opening (their last performance ever, and still one of the best sets that I’ve ever witnessed) at Lounge Ax; Royal Trux with Gastr del Sol opening at Metro; and Eric’s Trip at Empty Bottle. I think all of those bands are represented here, except Rodan, and they’re a hard hang – a descendant of fellow Louisville legends Slint. Remember them?

Remember 120 Minutes on MTV with Matt Pinfield? Remember JBTV on some cable access channel? I mentioned Reckless, but do you remember Ajax on Chicago Avenue? Remember your own local record stores and rifling through bins of used cds? Promos of new stuff that were dirt cheap because they had a don’t-sell-or-buy-this stamp/sticker on the cover? Music didn’t stream back then, and iTunes and Napster were years away. You actually had to buy shit. And make decisions. Should I go for this used copy of the latest Th’ Faith Healers album, or the new, full-price Tortoise remix compilation? GbV’s next ep (there might be a classic among those six songs), or whatever Will Oldham’s put out this month? One Belle & Sebastian 7″ or both of them? Should I buy music or lunch tomorrow at work? Your choices may have been different, but the point is this: Kids, we walked a mile to and from school uphill both ways, music-wise. You don’t even know.

We were sorta grown-up with our own version of disposable income, but we were still mostly broke. A new cd was, what, $12-15? I have totes of them in the garage. Most of the ones that I’ve kept are still dear to me, but I’d sell any of them for a quarter of what I paid. Hmu, if you’re looking for some choice vintage Table of the Elements releases.

(Footnote here: I love Spotify, but I do miss physical iterations of music. I loved opening a new cd and checking out what was inside the insert. Same for vinyl. Streaming services should add that stuff.)

Anyway. In 1990, I listened to WXRT jams. A few years later, I listened to Q101 jams. After that, it was indie rock that wasn’t on the radio, hip-hop, and jazz. And that’s where I stopped, pretty much. Most of the stuff that I dig rn has a toe-hold in what I heard in the ’90s. My best friend would back that up, for sure, and tell you about my near-nightly “Son Volt Party” on the deck. (Fwiw: It’s not always totally Son Volt, but it always starts with something off Trace.)

What I’m struggling to articulate is that this era is my safe place. And, unlike the ’70s and ’80s playlists, where I could take an ironic piss on a track here and there, these playlists are comprised of tracks that I mostly love, even the lame ones. You know the “new stuff-old stuff” descriptions on the weekly playlists? (It just occurred to me that you might not know because you don’t read those posts, and that this is tl;dr.) The old stuff is mostly from the 1990s.

This week’s playlist is the first of two. Both have 99 tracks, and both were lovingly co-curated by my best friend. I promise that I won’t blab so much next time. Here’s the widget.

More soon.

The degenerate’s guide to college football TV watch ‘em ups, 2019 season, week 2

Now do you want to read about college football or do you want to listen to your wildest fantasy of Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy theories in a podcast format? If you answered “college football” then click to read more! If you want to listen to an incredible podcast that will feed your absolute worst inclinations towards nihilistic disillusionment then click right here! True Anon is really all I’ve ever wanted in a left-leaning shitfest. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Now for the football. Hell, the CIA is behind this shit, too. The highlight of the week for me is the line on the Bammers game. No way Saban holds up his end of that bargain. Why the fucking hell is there even a line on that shit?

If you’ve read this nonsense before you know the drill. If not, the times are eastern, the schedule is ripped from FBSchedules and the gambling informatics are per Vegas Insider dot com. Degenerate football can alternately mean football that you only pay attention to for purposes of gambling or the low-level, barely FBS, preferably late night types of games that play for stadium crowds in the hundreds and TV audiences in the dozens. It doesn’t have to be college ball, the UFL is my true ideal of football degeneracy. If you gambled on that you are my target audience. Onward and downward we go.

Saturday, September 7

Matchup Time (ET) TV/Mobile

Ohio at Pitt 11:00am ACCN

Wow. What a special game. It’s got a one hour headstart and for what? Goddamn is this trash. Why is ACCN not just an extra ESPN channel? SECN and Longhorn Network are just parts of the ESPN app but ACCNe is just off by itself inaccessible to 90% of the country.

Southern at Memphis 12:00pm WMC-TV / ESPN3

There’s no line on this game so just check on it to see what’s going on with Memphis. They beat their secret rival The Racist South last week but scoring less than 20 is weird for them.

Rutgers at 20 Iowa 12:00pm FS1

This being a conference game is funny. Maryland and Rutgers being in the B1G is funny. And stupid. Mostly stupid. But that’s why it’s funny. Take Iowa even at -19 because it’s Rutgers.

West Virginia at Missouri 12:00pm ESPN2

Speaking of dumb conference stuff, both of these teams belong in the Big 12. That’s the true spirit of college football and it’s completely akilter. Is Mizzourah the good offense out of these two now? Everything is wrong. I wouldn’t touch a 14-point line in either direction here but over 62.5 seems worthwhile.

Vanderbilt at Purdue 12:00pm BTN

These are the same team but one has Rondale Moore. Otherwise there is no difference.

UAB at Akron 12:00pm CBSSN

I don’t like the beloved CBS Sports hosting a MAC team even if they are hosting UAB. Why did the o/u drop from 55 to 46 over the course of the week? That’s odd. I’d have to check with our dear president but I don’t think Ohio is in the path of any hurricanes.

21 Syracuse at Maryland 12:00pm ESPN

From the bottom of my Georgetown-born, VA-burbs raised heart I hate everything about this game. I would love to see Syracuse lose even if it means Maryland winning. The odds have flipped crazily from opening Syracuse -5 to now having Maryland -1.5. Take the turtles.

Army at 7 Michigan 12:00pm FOX

I saw ESPN talking up Army last night so go all in on Michigan to beat the ever-living piss out of the troops. -22.5 is nothing.

Bowling Green at Kansas State 12:00pm FSN

Good lord, no.

Charleston Sou. at South Carolina 12:00pm SECN

This is cancelled, right? If not pound the under.

Cincinnati at 5 Ohio State 12:00pm ABC

Cincinnati sucks but count on Fickell to make an Ohio State University look bad one more time. Bearcats +16, book it.

Kennesaw State at Kent State 12:00pm ESPN3

I think Kennesaw is the Welsh version of the British Kent. I could be wrong about that but who cares?

Old Dominion at Virginia Tech 12:00pm ESPNU

VPISU should be better by now. I’m wrong a lot but it’s possible I was really wrong about Justin Fuente. Betting on ODU sounds like a bad idea but I fully endorse it.

Western Carolina at NC State 12:30pm RSN

There is no reason to bet on a game like this. This is practice.

NIU at 13 Utah 1:00pm Pac-12N

I could be wrong but off the top of my head I don’t think Utah usually covers in the first four weeks of the season. This is a guess you can use in your gambling.

Fordham at Ball State 2:00pm ESPN3

Blocks of Granite for the win. Book it.

USF at Georgia Tech 2:00pm ACCN

By my count Georgia Tech covered last week against Clemson. USF just hung out in a trash can for 60 minutes. Yet the Bulls are favored here. Charlie Strong was once a hot commodity that programs all over the country coveted. Hindsight is absolutely hilarious.

Tennessee Tech at Miami (Ohio) 2:30pm ESPN+

There’s no line but I’m loading up the wagon for the Golden Eagles. This is the big auto mechanics school, right?

Southern Illinois at UMass 3:30pm FloSports / NESNplus

I, uh, guess, uh... Don’t watch this under any circumstances. Pack a cyanide pill if you must.

Southern Miss at Mississippi State 3:30pm ESPNU

This is an appealing bit of misery but there’s no chance I watch it. Miss State -16.5 seems crazy against anybody. I think.

12 Texas A&M at 1 Clemson 3:30pm ABC

This is statistically expected to be Clemson’s toughest game and they’re still favored by 16.5. The money looks to be going towards aTm but I can’t shake the notion that Clemson is going to absolutely maul them from the get go.

Central Michigan at 17 Wisconsin 3:30pm BTN

I don’t trust Nick Saban to do what’s right by gambling folk but Wisconsin is different. If they don’t humiliate undermanned opponents that means they are a bad team. -35 is the kind of line you see when the Badgers go for 80+.

Charlotte at Appalachian State 3:30pm ESPN+

You’re on your own with this one.

Eastern Illinois at Indiana 3:30pm BTN

See: Charlotte at Appalachian State.

Grambling State at Louisiana Tech 3:30pm NFLN

Is there a way to make a throwback game between Doug Williams and Terry Bradshaw take place here?

Illinois at UConn 3:30pm CBSSN

Oh, come the fuck on.

25 Nebraska at Colorado 3:30pm FOX

The two Big 8 programs that benefited most from 5th downs are facing off on national TV representing the B1G and Pac-12. That’s horrible. Nebraska being a top 25 team but also being favored by only -4 against this version of Colorado is what is known as a paradox.

Richmond at Boston College 3:30pm ACCNE xtra

No line. What cowardice.

Murray State at 3 Georgia 4:00pm ESPN2

Pound the under.

UTSA at Baylor 4:00pm FSN

Go UTSA. We’re all rooting for you.

Western Illinois at Colorado State 4:00pm ATTSN

Man, this is all trash. Not even the good kind.

New Mexico State at 2 Alabama 4:00pm SECN

The predicted score by way of gambling is Bama 60, NMSU 5. Saban is pulling his starters in the second quarter, though, so put a buck or two on New Mexico State just for the hell of it.

San Diego State at UCLA 4:15pm Pac-12N

This is Pac-12 After Dark/CBS Sports fodder playing in the sunlight. Both teams might explode, literally.

Northern Colorado at 22 Washington State 5:00pm Pac-12WA

Pac-12 Washington? That’s a channel? Washington State lookd good in week 1 so hit the over (63) and see what happens.

ULM at Florida State 5:00pm ACCN

Oh, Willie. Poor, poor Willie. Why, Willie, why? Monroe +22 looks pretty good to me.

Gardner-Webb at East Carolina 6:00pm ESPN3

Yeah, buddy, now we’re into it. If this game happens. I think it’s not happening. But if it does? Man, oh, man. You know what I mean.

Maine at Georgia Southern 6:00pm ESPN+

Why would you think Eagles could beat Black Bears? That’s crazy.

North Carolina A&T at Duke 6:00pm ACCNE xtra

Let’s go A&T, beat the devil.

South Dakota at 4 Oklahoma 7:00pm FS PPV

What lunatics are paying for this? You should feel ashamed.

Jackson State at South Alabama 7:00pm ESPN+

Lots of bodybag games, even at the lower levels. I hate it.

Wyoming at Texas State 7:00pm ESPN+

Kind of beautiful but you’ll probably have to squint to see it.

WKU at FIU 7:00pm ESPN+

Get your shit together, Butch. Now. Stop embarrassing me.

18 UCF at Florida Atlantic 7:00pm CBSSN

Oh, now this - THIS! is what CBS Sports is great for. What a shitty game that I love like a long lost child.

Tennessee State at Middle Tennessee 7:00pm ESPN3

Too Tall U vs. MTSU is cool in a way but it won’t be a fun thing to watch.

North Texas at SMU 7:00pm ESPN3

Spencer is visiting ms621 and my people are expecting a lot of scoring in this one with the lawyers coming out on top. /suggestive eyebrow raises

McNeese at Oklahoma State 7:00pm ESPN+

Chuba Hubbard should get about 8 touches so watch early if you’re watching at all.

Furman at Georgia State 7:00pm ESPN3

Man, this is a long list of boring crap.

Eastern Kentucky at Louisville 7:00pm ACCNE xtra

Other than the 24 fumbles I thought Louisville looked pretty good last week. Not enough to tune in for a minute of this but maybe they can fine tune some of the difficult football activities like “snapping the football” and “holding the football close to your body” or “handing the ball to the running back” against Eastern Kentucky and then when they pop up against Clemson later on it’ll be worth watching.

Coastal Carolina at Kansas 7:00pm ESPN+

Les Magic: Kansas is favored to start the year 2-0. Not by a lot, mind you.

BYU at Tennessee 7:00pm ESPN

Nobody tell Bergie but I’m rooting for the Mormons here. Gotta go for what makes the most people feel the worst about sports.

Tulane at 10 Auburn 7:30pm ESPN2

Is Auburn rising in the polls enough to make me bet against them at home -17 vs. Tulane? It sure is. Auburn is just as chaotic as LSU but not as funny about it.

UT Martin at 11 Florida 7:30pm ESPNU

Fuck the Gators, man.

Western Michigan at 19 Michigan State 7:30pm BTN

Sparty, too.

Arkansas at Mississippi, Oxford 7:30pm SECN

I am on a descent into hell here.

Buffalo at 15 Penn State 7:30pm FOX

If Notre Dame is next I’m hanging up on this post.

Eastern Michigan at Kentucky 7:30pm SECN Alt.

Whew. Hill people that can only intermittently football. That is a huge relief right now.

Liberty at Louisiana 7:30pm ESPN+

Fuck the Falwells, and not in a good way.

6 LSU at 9 Texas 7:30pm ABC

There is one ironclad rule in college football gambling: never bet on an LSU game. Those who fail to heed this rule will never see longterm winnings. Oddsmakers keep pushing the line towards LSU and I agree wholeheartedly that’s where the expectations should reside but would you be even sort of surprised to see LSU blow this entirely and lose? No, you would not. Neither would I.

Nevada at 16 Oregon 7:30pm Pac-12N

Oregon is favored by 24 and my very cursory impression of these two is that Nevada is a straight up better team than the Ducks. Granted, I’m really bad at this, but that +24 looks like easy money.

Stony Brook at Utah State 7:30pm Facebook

Not even a great QB talent is worth going on facebook.

Miami (FL) at North Carolina 8:00pm ACCN

Pound the damn under. Also, ESPN talking heads are all on the UNC to upset train so put whatever money you have set aside for this contest on the Hurricanes.

Prairie View A&M at Houston �� 8:00pm ESPN3

That one good recruiting class is mostly a memory for Houston at this point but they’ll still be fun to watch once D’Eriq King and Dana Holgorsen get on the same page.

UTEP at Texas Tech 8:00pm FSN

Wasn’t Texas Tech supposed to run the ball more this year? One week in they’re leading the country in passing. Maybe they ran the ball more and it still wasn’t very much.

Tulsa at San Jose State 9:00pm ESPN3

This is the kind of game that should be played in a prison yard.

Arkansas State at UNLV 10:00pm Facebook

This is the kind of game that shouldn’t be played.

California at 14 Washington 10:30pm FS1

I do believe I’m the span of this game away from getting fully on board with UDub rolling the Pac-12 again. The only team with similar talent, as far as I have seen, is USC. But there are a long list of other issues with USC.

Minnesota at Fresno State 10:30pm CBSSN

This is the kind of stupid game I love but I think I’ll be watching Pennywise the Dancing Clown at this point.

23 Stanford at USC 10:30pm ESPN

USC should just fire Clay Helton now, win or lose.

Northern Arizona at Arizona 10:45pm Pac-12N

It would be very Pac-12 of Arizona to lose this game.

Oregon State at Hawaii 11:59pm Spectrum / Facebook

I guess facebook is there to scoop from the most bootlegged team in college football’s illegal audience but I still hate it. Hawaii playing at home two weeks in a row means pound the over even at 77.5. It’s not like Oregon State plays defense, either.

- ̗̀ ghostie’s building masterpost ̖́-

hi there !! when i first discovered the sims community, the most daunting thing for me was the amazing builds the members of the community created. so inspired by @sandy-sims, i decided to make a huge masterpost/tutorial thingie to hopefully help some people out !! it’s under the read more link bc i don’t want 2 be clogging up people’s dashes, also i ask if this post helped u out 2 reblog it so it could maybe help someone else out too !!!

disclaimer: this is in no way me trying to be arrogant or say that i’m a good builder, correct/ “call out” other’s “mistakes”, or tell anyone what to do. i’m just trying to share some building knowledge !!! lots of love xx

inspiration: the first step to creating anything is inspiration. a lot of people who build, myself included, use pictures of real life buildings for reference and inspiration when making their builds.

{ 1 } youtube channels: watching speedbuilds is literally one of the only reasons i can build. you pick up so many little tips n stuff while watching other people build. here are some talented builders who’s speed builds i watch on a regular basis: - ̗̀ deligracy, the sim supply, lilsimsie ̖́-

{ 2 } pinterest: pinterest is where i get reference for my builds. i usually just determine the kind of build that i want to create, and search it in the search bar (i.e. modern house exterior, traditional house exterior, etc.). - ̗̀ find my pinterest board here, where i pin all the houses i use for reference/inspo ̖́-

{ 3 } tumblr: simblr is home to loads of talented builders. here are the tags i look at to gather inspiration for my own builds: - ̗̀ ts4 build, ts4 exterior , ts4 interior ̖́-

general tips: some general tips to help you out !!!

{ 1 } hotkeys: hotkeys make building about 10x faster. - ̗̀ here is a list of hotkeys for the sims 4 ̖́-

{ 2 } listening to music / watching youtube or netflix: building is a long process, and trust me, you’ll get tired of the sims 4 music pretty fast. mute the game music in options, and put on some of your own music, a youtube video, your favorite netflix show, or even a podcast in the background. just remember, don’t make it something that you have to have all your attention on.

{ 3 } save a lot: the sims 4 is a game; games crash. enough said.

{ 4 } bb.moveobjects: entering the cheat bb.moveobjects on into the cheat bar ( which is opened by ctrl + shift + c if you don’t know already ) allows you to moves objects anywhere you want. i never build without this cheat on.

{ 5 } 9 and 0 + [ and ]: pressing the 9 and 0 keys on your keyboard will allow you to move objects up and down, and pressing the [ and ] keys will allow you to make objects bigger and smaller. bb.moveobjects must be on for this to work.

{ 6 } the alt key: by holding down the alt key, you can place an item without it snapping to the grid. you can also rotate objects freely with this key, but sims 3 camera must be enabled to do this. you can toggle between camera modes by pressing ctrl + shift + tab.

exteriors: the exterior of a build is the first thing you see. here are some tips on building exteriors.

{ 1 } start small, and with a box: the biggest mistake, and one that i made, is diving into your first few builds with huge mansions. the bigger the house = the harder the build. start simple, like with a starter home. also, most builders start their builds with a single room/box.

{ 2 } add a foundation: pretty much all houses irl have a foundation. unless it’s essential for the style of the house, use that foundation tool friend.

{ 3 } the stair trick + railings: i’m extremely embarrased to tell you that i didn’t know how to get rid of that ugly deck/foundation piece that appears when u place stairs. here’s the secret: click inside the foundation you’re placing the stairs on, not outside of it. pics 4 reference:

{ 4 } roofing: wanna hear a secret? i only know how to do roofing because of this tutorial.

{ 5 } terrain paint: terrain painting is the key to detailing your build. i usually put dirt under the whole foundation/ “outline” of the house and also under any landscaping, and i usually paint the whole lot sporadically with the white flower paint using the biggest circle brush and lowest opacity.

{ 6 } landscaping: there is no big secret to landscaping: for me, it’s always been the hardest part of building. again, i advise you to watch a crapton of speedbuilds, but also to not under-landscape and to stick to a neutral color pallete ( white, pale yellows and blues, etc.) when landscaping !!!

{ 7 } white columns: place these columns, or similar ones, on the ends of every wall segment to make your build look more detailed and cohesive.

{ 8 } utilize trims: floor trims and roof trims. use them.

{ 9 } flower boxes and ivy: flowerboxes and ivy, along with other exterior details, make a house look more lived in and realistic + they also fill up space.

{ 10 } don’t over-window: if it looks like to many windows, it probably is.

interiors: interiors are where you’re going to be spending most of your time playing. here are some tips for interiors. i will be referencing the following picture throughout my tips so that’s why it’s here ok.

{ 1 } consistency: this was one of my biggest mistakes when i first started building. a modern house usually doesn’t have wood paneling and Victorian couches, and a traditional house usually doesn’t have all white walls and industrial furnishing.

{ 2 } flooring and walls: here are some of my most used floorings and wallpapers !!!

{ 3 } floor plans: although not as breathable, more closed off floorplans are much easier to furnish, as there’s much less empty space. try to avoid open floorplans when you’re first starting to build.

{ 4 } accent colors: look at the picture at the top of this section. notice how the pink paint splatters on the easel match the pink poster behind the desk. even small accent colors like this can help to tie a room together.

{ 5 } clutter: notice the file cabinets under the desk, the picture and the cds, the paint cans. no one’s house in real life is perfectly immaculate: clutter makes a house look real and lived in, and also fills up extra space.

{ 6 } lighting: the type of lighting you use in a build is subjective to what you’re using the build for. for example, if you’re going to be taking screenshots in the build, you’ll probably want bright, crisp lighting. here are some of my favorite lights, the first two being brighter and more expensive, and the last two being dimmer but more affordable !!!

{ 7 } match the interior to your sim: when i was building the interior in the picture, i had a sim who was a struggling artist and writer, hence the easel and paintcans, the lived in desk and the holes/ damage in the walls. if your building a house for a particular sim, the interior of your build should match that sim !!!

that’s it loves xxx

might be onto anything there Josh Owens thank you for the the announcement there however yeah today I tweeted out and i just took about this 2014 to September 19 2014 video before where I I inform men and women to spend $10,000 on 23.8 Bitcoin and good that’s what it might have bought then you definitely on the grounds that bitcoin used to be $420 then and surely in the video you will detect this

however I nonetheless no have to purchase one more water bottle regardless of my long-time period thinking and what it has brought me however you can appear again on that video and spot and notice that yeah i’ve been announcing the same factor all along and that uh thousand dollars worth a Bitcoin that I suggest persons to purchase on that day is now valued at over $300,000 and that does that

2d clip on Twitter I hadn’t relatively achieved that with Twitter before however it’s uh it seems that men and women find it irresistible and that i it can be beautiful enjoyable so I on Twitter who follows me I was really flattered when he stated this to me so completely happy I listened to your exhibit religiously during the bear market no FOMO here and i quite I particularly like that no FOMO here persons who’ve been looking at my show for a at the same time there is just not any FOMO at all considering that you must have already got gotten your Bitcoin when it was once more cost-effective when it used to be $3,000 probably method back when he was once $200 or 400 when I used to be once I was once speaking about it and considering that again sure I did I did have videos when it was as much as 250 greenbacks or whatever like that once I I said it can be the ideal present for kids I said to buy factor one Bitcoin to provide it to a kid at his bris for twenty-five dollars and i absolutely did that my friend’s son it was once a he was once born in together with his April or may just of 2015 I spent $25 one factor one Bitcoin and he has that factor one Bitcoin now that’s valued at like you understand over $1,250 that used to be a excellent and the kid is best 4 years historical he in general has much more Bitcoin than various the humans many men and women who watch this exhibit sadly considering the fact that he’s a she’s bought to be cashed within the be gold too i suppose but but but but however the point is is that no person who watches this show must be FOMO they should be quite at ease with the stash they have already got if they’ve been looking at this exhibit lengthy ample for the reason that they did not take heed to me no excellent buy it now via now don’t trade do not lose it simply stash it now in the future you’ll be buried feel 2020 having good for those who proposal 2020 having you wouldn’t you possibly can have purchased it as quickly as as a ways far from the 20/20 having as feasible as that the primary time you grasp that suggestion so i love to hear that you recognize my viewers are not FOMO now but there are a lot of individuals available in the market which might be clearly fake mowing which is high-quality for us the holders fine let the froth of it it they didn’t need to listen they did not recognize about the having they failed to find out about this that the opposite they proposal buying litecoin was a excellent proposal or buying anything the flavour of the month was once was once a just right suggestion purchasing things that you could find steam was once a good notion when that you may get that free of charge never buy something you get for free pound that like button a further probably the most sayings on this exhibit howdy i know men and women remind you about these sayings however why do you buy things that I get free of charge what are you i’d as an alternative have sayings than waste my cash on things handy my sayings mean things you should you will have to simply say oh you as a stupid announcing it’s an actual thing you’re the dude who purchased the steam and it’s valued at nothing now i’m the man who obtained the free steam eternity the colossal factor and that bitcoins valued at i’m going to hack out much more than the steam that I was earning again in 2016 pound that like button yeah and pound that like button it can be the equal nevertheless it helps the show anything you already know you want extra people to hear about this variety of thing to grasp to be holders i want more holders of last lodge holders of last hotel are great Bay man no fancy sister pix so that you understand it’s handiest gonna handiest gonna attract a distinctive caliber it can be all I received selling appealing 20 percenters be proud and loud be 20 percenters yeah youngster all right it is conviction little one its conviction stick to it long run for considering do not be impulsive deferral of gratification appear how a lot fine watch that video in these days watch that video that I just endorsed from 2014 and spot how I deferred gratification I nonetheless have the identical freakin water bottle that I journey around the entire world all right I have got to purchase a brand new water bottle despite the fact that i am ok so you’re speakme about the lag lack of FOMO through the 20 percenters excellent guys again just wrap my strat comm you will discover all of my ancient suggests which you could be proactive and truly watch them and be taught some stuff or that you would be able to just wait around on Twitter except I tweet out a 30-second clip or anything so here’s a rumor that Vinny link ham tweeted out and i i am gonna comment on the value of Vinny Lynn whats up i’m no longer tweeting this out a second and two guys we’re speakme about this Krueger who’s what I feel it is a dude who possibly on my exhibit quickly um does any individual be aware of anything is is when I’m questioning right here theories on this Bitcoin is buying and selling as if a big nation have been about to announce the inclusion of Bitcoin as a reserve asset that’s how bullish price action has been the shopping stress throughout the Asian session was once distinct all correct and then any person else stated this thought lineally ham again in 2016 envisioned that quickly enough some country in the market used to be going to purchase Bitcoin put into its reserves just like they would each gold just like they buy dollars but of path the nation could no longer admit it was doing that given that then each different nation once they found that would attempt to do it too and it might motive a pump in this you want it if you’re a nation and you are shopping up Bitcoin you need to be as discreet as feasible about it so persons don’t understand that you’re doing it so that everyone else buys it earlier than you would buy it on the low-cost so some humans now are thinking that probably some nation is doing this and any one is figuring it out that a nation is do or some perception or is aware of that some nation out there is doing this and then is why a variety of men and women are shopping it proper now that might be a part of it however I do wish to provide any link Lincoln credit he mentioned this theory in 2016 possibly we have now reached a day once we’re gonna discover if it is particularly happening and once more plenty of men and women don’t like Vinnie now for some thing motives dude in the event you have been following him back in 2016 you’d by and large be particularly completely happy correct now like i’m on account that it was that one in every of what that article the place he would he pointed out that that was once some of the matters that just made it click on in my head and i went on a large gigantic factor purchasing spree in 2016 earlier than the having studying round when that article got here out I suppose that article got here out in April and i really increased my role by using relatively a little again then and so yeah you realize Vinnie he’s not proper on the whole lot but that was once a that was and he mentioned but Bitcoin will probably be uh he stated would be three thousand dollars by means of the tip of 2017 or something like that would be three thousand dollars and humans and humans concept oh however that’s that’s large and that really clicked in my head too I used to be like k let me put myself in a excellent position i I think it’s gonna be three thousand dollars at some factor in 2017 let me put myself in function where I obtained a benefit from that and yeah once more you gotta set objectives you individuals are normally asking me how much Bitcoin do i would like how a lot Bitcoin do i need you’re gonna figure out do you need to be a millionaire well how so much do you have got to be a millionaire and how fast you wish to have to be a millionaire via I imply that’s something you have to determine for your self you headquartered on your competencies situated on the stuff you learn when do you believe it will be twenty thousand dollars what do you want you or do you feel its billing going to be a thousand greenbacks subsequent month like bikini babes all right so uh or do you similar to staring at scorching women on Twitter and also you simply draw and you wish to waste cash I mean you are able to do that too if you wish to nothing I mean it would not harm me individual obligations new counterculture don’t come do not come begging for money for me although uh all correct are there any s Josh Oasis are there any estimates on what the member Wimble airdrop ratio will likely be good no I estimated it within the earlier show i I concept can be a hundred I notion can be a hundred to 1 and it’s gonna write I believe the final factor Chris mentioned and i might be mistaken I do not want it that they 35,000 Bitcoin had been registered and so i thought that 60,000 Bitcoin will grow to be being registered so 60,000 Bitcoin are registered they usually’re giving for free six million to the registrants there you go that’s a hundred 110 60,000 is a six million so I believe it is gonna be 100 but at the % instantly look like the % he picked up so it would be lower than 100 again I speakme about its own previous Joe we just isn’t typing it up an excessive amount of except after the nineteenth as soon as we now have our free memo wibble there may be the extra we speak about it now the more persons will register the much less free minimal will we can get however some thing that is it you understand i am i do not work for the staff or something like that and these in charge in the advertising numerous humans like our enemy has the Rick point how the heck why on the debt member we are going to go to the middle MWC MW look at who works for the coin one of the individuals is andy hoffman he’s getting he’s getting MW he’s getting MWC for it chummy that is how he is getting his MW he is being compensated I know it’s an ancient-usual suggestion to receives a commission on your work however there we go guys for the persons how does it get any of MWC correct there nothing’s hitting over there MW see that MW once more for these you don’t know what the heck i’m speakme about while you hold large point you get to register for air drops you get Forks there may be a crypto dividends you get interest for earning your Bitcoin should you manipulate your possess exclusive key should you hold it at coinbase you get nothing so I mean and you do not rather own your gigantic-boy so get yourself a treasurer put your tremendous factor on there and register for the air drops and watch it show you get the insider knowledge right here and hardly any one knows that insider information that if you manage your own exclusive key you get crypt of dividends you’re a reward folks don’t get this suggestion that you just get curiosity for your enormous point and you get crypto dividends it can be unlucky however whats up insider information right right here a pound that like button quite a lot of people have benefited so then watch this show at the least but Josh that thank you for the query thank you for query so i suppose i am hoping it is a hundred to at least one ratio I want to get as much as viable turning the Bitcoin what the heck it is free and then of course i’m gonna find it irresistible i am certain Oh July its twentieth July 25 i am in Israel the day after the registration ends there’ll be folks like how do i purchase MWC how do i oh god all right so so i’ve stated robust hand and that we’ve had that you realize you may have a powerful hand in excellent times and bad instances and that there that we got a rollercoaster day some days days some days it could possibly drop with the aid of a thousand they can go up by way of a thousand well today once I was about to take my nap cuz I simplest slept for hours final night after which I went jogging like 6 miles and then I got on my laptop and i noticed I I used to be just so glad that that every body was once blissful and individuals who retweeted my factor and that i just acquired carried away and right once I obtained to take my nap Oh a sudden the Fiat rate drops greater than I’ve ever obvious it drop in such a short interval of time I mean it was like in five minutes and went down like $1,seven hundred and that i used to be I just went this way buzzing I do not know what’s going on i’m simply going to sleep that’s how so much was strong hand I had but eventually eventually I found out that coinbase had an outage that coinbase stopped working and as a consequence there used to be a panic and he’s reminded me of 2016 a lot this happened once or twice back within the day coinbase might control the the site visitors and it will stop and people would panic and there’d be a drop and then and then individuals would try to get on for Chitti I feel it was absolutely as soon as it was once so loopy giant Phenix got hacked the price began losing so speedy and a lot it’s like from seven-hundred to 580 that everyone got alongside the coin basis tried to purchase it and it and also you couldn’t purchase it on point base it simply stopped work good at present coinbase just randomly stopped working and it wasn’t random it is a bullish signal in reality in order Bitcoin used to be going up today so many persons were purchasing it that a broke coin base and therefore when coinbase broke all of the speculators spreading panic and promoting so other folks starts on so they can buy a back and anyway it it’s enough nothing essentially unsuitable with Bitcoin in any respect it was just that that that is what happened however these of you who’ve been in this recreation for a long time like me have seen this happen however the funny thing is and it’s not that the majority constructive thing in the world on to this aspect that coin base which is the largest on-ramp for american citizens nonetheless cannot handle surges so it is nonetheless early days guys if coinbase this mega funded corporation which many american citizens use to buy their Bitcoin and store their Bitcoin stops working throughout a FOMO period the de states that’s no longer just right however there may be nothing flawed with Bitcoin and again we have obvious this earlier than and so I simply these of you we’re questioning why did it drop so suddenly because of this because of this you couldn’t they stopped working but we this this has occurred earlier than so again it is a little bit of a anybody some entities i’d feel it is just standard folks regular retail people or we’re shopping a lot Bitcoin that it can be now not working on coinbase however perhaps they’re only a few bigger entities that is how they get their huge factor i do not know it stopped working that’s just right that queer base is getting that so much site visitors that it breaks so usa today has a piece of writing about this honestly um Bitcoin rally to its perfect costs Jerri 2018 on Wednesday earlier than losing $1,000 after us markets closed oh my god so what’s the biggest a part of that story there well u.S.A. Today is his primary move and he did not he did not flip what write this article after us markets closed Bitcoin market not ever closes simply considering that the U.S. Stock market closed it does not imply the Bitcoin market has closed I mean I get there burdened what is going on on within the article it repeats it once more the title it said it within the article it stated it so no this is the item dudes if you’re still in that mentality the place markets closed it closed then i assume that’s why you buy gbtc or whatever given that the gbtc the market closes with gbtc okay however Bitcoin market by no means closes welcome to the twenty first century twenty first century that is the place the colossal boys play there’s no closing of markets right here the Bitcoin rate went down at 5p anything it was i assume it was once in the afternoon when the East Coast i do not even recognize yeah i assume it was about 5:00 p.M.On the East Coast i B’s is gonna take the nap round 2:00 p.M. Right here I believe i know but once more it’s just don’t get your Bitcoin information from us don’t get any understanding from united states at present u.S. In these days is like a complete of Disney World i will don’t forget being in Disney well as a child and i’d find it irresistible considering that you’ll wake up within the morning and you exit they usually give you the complimentary u.S. At present and you can see the Orioles Orioles ah one optimistically so but yeah the 2 of Disney is a it is like Disney it’s make-consider basically fantasy is united states at present they’re dwelling in a but I mean some men and women like to be in that world I imply I get a variety of you tonight we’re looking at the Democratic I imply a variety of speak on Twitter in these days used to be to speak concerning the democratic debate don’t know a factor that occurred about it in these days I learn about what occurred a huge coin although so who’s gonna be better off in the long run the persons who knew about Bitcoin in these days or the people who knew about beta or Roark and Elizabeth Warren settling on her nose and now not doing a Tomahawk Chop I imply did you who who’s gonna be a better shape in in four years I mean it is ridiculous that men and women can’t preserve up and if funny thing is i’ve a video from like twenty fifteen or twenty fifteen or sixteen speaking about Hillary Clinton and every body hello any you already know why do persons waste their time with these politicians I mentioned and that i didn’t waste my time all these politicians certainly I was once speaking in regards to the colossal factor having so that you would have healthy in 2015 are you just right at Hillary who’s doing higher the Jews that had heaven or the dudes that have Hillary you already know who’s doing better considering the Jews that we’re speaking about Hillary are nonetheless crying in the market that they may be negative and they want they must be a the Bernie to pay off their at their institution debt and the whole lot like that I mean if you happen to’d haven’t any tuition debt anymore when you were be aware knew concerning the having at 20:15 town that like button okay i need private obligations if this that is the difference the persons haven’t any private responsibility they put their faith in Hilary the humans have who’ve personal responsibility put their faith in mathematics of having k know me religion is mathematics is ok that there’s capabilities of arithmetic ok we talk about phrases of dividends we talked about u.S.A. Today um what a steak the USA is in at present beautiful but once more you don’t have got to worry if you’re the 20% if you are in the Bitcoin overlay it can be just chuckle at all of it all proper when I used to be strolling at present and again i have not listened to music for particularly a while due to the fact that of i’m in the mourning interval still I cuz I proposal about the song magical thriller tour by the Beatles a music I particularly experience however i have not heard for us a long time and i am simply you know pondering of it in my head and then i’m like magical thriller tour have a magical thriller speak this is a nice term the bsv persons so many of them is magical mystery speak that is the best way they speak they speak about is these nebulous predictions you are going to see after which they throw in technical jargon and Jim Jones will divulge by the time of the 20/20 having in a default factor they put in some technical jargon some nebulous predictions some it’s not ever can be very seats magical mystery speak it makes me it can be thoroughly sure clearly however it sounds form of fancy sounds kinda mysterious sounds type of psychedelic perhaps you can point out neighborhood that you may form of picture George and Ringo and oh yeah you understand you image Jim Jones and other sociopaths carrying psychedelic garments i suppose and announcing matters that make no experience but it surely’s a you’re going to see you are going to see its magical mystery speak the magical thriller tour is coming to take you and yeah it’s coming to take you away so quickly there’s one more uh an extra assessment coming to take you away oh yeah do not get taken away by that do not get taken via that k it is best to be a holder no stress as a caso 20% er yeah dude it’s excellent to be a 20% or it can be excellent to be a holder no stress at all you get to look at all of it child o.K. O.K. Right here final tweet of the day that is from pirate seashore bum who had a quality profile of me on his blog recently I was exhibit from a month ago or two months ago yeah I used to be still in Baltimore he did that that was once very great he says had a Harvard MBA inform me that cash from Bitcoin will move to Libra and tenth the rate of Bitcoin it is a best illustration of how an Ivy League measure doesn’t mean you might be smarter than a scrub between plebe good good fortune with that so yeah I imply he honestly would have a bigger IQ than a huge point plebe but he would not have abilities he does not have knowledge knowledge and IQ Toto distinctive things ok which you could have dudes at our IQ very excessive IQ getting the medicinal drugs and that i knew i know I figure out one guy particularly so impulsive simply telling you so intelligent and simply it simply it certainly not on no account clicked for him and even he would say things like that he is obsessive about politics now too I feel and he still does the drugs I consider however however however even a Harvard MBA you possibly can anticipate okay that individual’s no longer that character is simply rather intelligent they usually got an MBA they should have an understanding of business proper but that is that is what a whole new world this isn’t does not go via their traditional things the place companies can good-funded corporations to take things over can take the space over they may be able to play with the tremendous boys right here nevertheless it’s apples and oranges via the fb coin and the significant giant point apples and oranges however that being said Libra and all its hype with a view to occur there can be Libra peak why would your own ripples tell i don’t i do not get why you can possess a centralized corporate coin like ripple when you might own a brick branding centralized corporate factor like Libre Deb do not supply it away totally free they’ve already obtained a network of back I mean they’ve acquired a gimmick we’re all we’re gonna make men and women in Indonesia wealthy and all all this stuff I’ve heard yes we’re gonna turn the 0.33 world wrench and a just right lock launcher if they could supply us the 1/3 world humans so facebook point and which you can conveniently alternate that Libre into big factor then to be able to be splendid i am watching forward to it however I think it’ll damage some Hawk points so this MBA guy he he if he simply replaces the word Bitcoin with all aspects and he is on to whatever he’s certainly uh he is also so we’ll see the way it plays out once more do not fall on up coin so you do not ought to worry about this considering Bitcoin does not have got to fear about Libre some all cash certainly those super centralized pre intellect ones like ripple which is sincerely what libras gonna do yet they could must worry but I ripple all right i’m Adam I I stirred the large point point out to disrupt meister keep in mind i imply just in view that some semi scorching lady informed you to my ripple i mean in case your stuff inform that like buttons good I ought to say bang that belt button so you get reminders when this show goes reside or maybe you will depends on what you do seems like doesn’t matter comply with me on Twitter although you’ll be aware of when this show goes are living at Tech its Tech ball tch be alt click on those squares to peer my prior indicates the latest suggests i will uh thanks so much guys and i will say hello to all of you within the chat that’s Satoshi that’s that’s actual that’s no longer Jim Jones all right see ya
