In the ad the company had placed in the local paper in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Sears had listed Santa's number as ME 2-6681. Like many innovations, though, Sears's frictionless Santa scheme found itself with an unforeseen problem. Suddenly, phone calls intended for Santa were being received on a top-secret NORAD line. ![]() You can almost hear the Ralphie Parker voice-over. And, even more directly, to that source's enormous bag of loot. Nick! Kids could, finally, bypass the middlemen that stood between them and their gifts-the Post Office, their parents-and go directly to the source. ![]() Which must have seemed, if you were a kid back then, pretty amazing. The ads then listed local numbers for area children to call to get some one-on-one Kringle time. "Call me on my private phone and I will talk to you personally any time day or night." "HEY, KIDDIES!" the ad read, in a greeting that would seem creepy only in retrospect. In local newspapers, the department store placed ads. It was 1955, and Christmas was approaching, and Sears had a new idea for a yuletide gimmick. More here, and big thanks (again!) to Yoni Appelbaum for pointing out the new information. And he wasn't inundated with calls throughout the night that his men had to take." And as for Colonel Shoup's reaction? It was more like the kind of reaction you'd expect from a military officer in charge of ordering a strike that had the potential to end life on Earth as we know it. It was just some kid who happened to get his numbers mixed up. But it wasn't on Christmas Eve and there was no misprint in the newspaper, even though Snopes claims there was. ![]() According to Novak, "Yes, Colonel Shoup got a call at CONAD that turned out to be a wrong number. Update, 12/23/14: More documentation has been found! Matt Novak, at Gizmodo's Paleofuture blog, has found evidence that the NORAD story, as repeated below and as Snopes has it, is partially true but partially the stuff of myth-and, in both capacities, the stuff of savvy military PR. And big thanks to Yoni for sharing his research. If you have access to that, or know anything additional about the original story, drop me an email (). My retelling originates from the Snopes account of what happened, but I'd love more documentation. In a later newspaper story, in 1999, Shoup mentioned a much more limited, Red Phone-style line, and multiple children. When Shoup told his story to the LA Times in 1980, he mentioned an unlisted line that a child had accessed. Yoni has also found, it's worth noting, disparities in the early stories that informed NORAD's, Snopes's, and other current accounts of the intercepted North Pole calls. Which makes sense, and which would help explain why NORAD would have so faithfully continued the tradition year after year. It was primed, basically, to take advantage of the good cheer of Christmas for its own ends-among them, promoting its military technology. ![]() Which is both weird and delightful (army of gnomes! radar antennae!), and, regardless, suggestive of the fact that CONAD had a vested interest in PR campaigns as well as military ones. It confirmed that 'a new North Pole Command has been formed,' that 'Santa Claus is directing operations,' and that 'he has under his command a small army of gnomes.' The censors, though, suppressed the location of Santa’s headquarters, directed that his delivery methods be described only as employing 'secret devices' or 'special scientific techniques,' and proscribed 'any mention of radar or speculation on the purpose of reindeer antennae.' At the height of the Second World War, Eisenhower’s headquarters put out a release offering 'Christmas guidance' to war correspondents. It turns out that the military, and other government agencies, had been using Santa to sell their missions long before 1954. Fixĭisabling the Autosave functionality will allow you to play co-op with your friends normally. For now, you can use the workarounds below to fix this issue for you. The devs are aware of this issue and are working on a fix in the upcoming patch. Another issue that arises from this bug is the inability for guests to rejoin a lobby until it has been recreated. The host will get stuck at 33% on the loading screen while the other members of the lobby will be able to join the game. This bug plagues users that are trying to play co-op with your friends. ![]() ![]() Affected Platforms: Mostly PC and Xbox users with some PS4 exceptions.You should however consider reporting this bug to the devs as they seem to have fixed this issue in the latest patch ie: 1.1.0 Host stuck at 33% in co-op & guest unable to join again You can then save your progress manually without losing your progression and XP. You can follow the guide in the above ‘AutoSave not working’ bug section to help disable Autosave features for you. The only fix to retaining your progression in quest and co-op mode seems to be to disable AutoSave functionality. In case you are losing progression despite applying the latest patch then you can use the workaround below. Thankfully the 1.1.0 patch fixes this issue for most users and you should update your game at the earliest if you haven’t already to fix this issue. This is a well-documented bug with Wasteland 3 that has been prevalent since its initial release. Progression resets while playing co-op (quest and character) Launch Wasteland 3 and select ‘Options’ from the Main Menu. Now click on ‘Gameplay’. Select ‘Autosaves (Off)’. Autosaves should now be turned off and you should be able to save your progress manually. Let’s take a look at how to disable AutoSave in Wasteland 3. This issue is caused due to in-game transitions conflicting with AutoSave as it takes place when transitions are happening. This is another issue that the developer is aware of and the only workaround to fix this bug, for now, seems to be disabling AutoSave altogether and doing manual saves instead. Many users have reported that the Auto-Save functionality does not work for them. A fix for this bug is expected in the next patch to Wasteland 3. If the issue persists then you might want to consider disabling your Anti-Virus while playing the game. If the issue persists, then try whitelisting Wasteland 3 as an administrator. Ensure that you restart your system for the changes to take place. Alternatively, if you use a firewall, then ensure that Wasteland 3 is whitelisted in your firewall as well. Whitelist Wasteland 3 (W元.exe) in your Anti-Virus/security program. This bug is caused due to a firewall/security software preventing Wasteland 3 from accessing your local storage. Users have also reported being unable to launch the game after its first launch. Issues launching/saving Wasteland 3Īnother widely documented issue with Wasteland 3 is the inability to save your game on PC. You can revert to your original region settings once you have completed the Ambush site mission. Changing your region to either the United States or the United Kingdom should fix this issue for you. ![]() This issue plagues users that have the region set to countries like Turkey, Poland, Thailand, Indonesia, etc. A fix is expected in the upcoming patch to Wasteland 3. The issue has been acknowledged by the developers and a workaround to fix this issue has been listed below. This is most prevalent at the Ambush Site scene when your vehicle is repaired or after the combat ends. While playing Wasteland 3 many players have encountered an issue where the game suddenly gets stuck while transitioning. Problems launching Wasteland from Xbox Game Pass.Game not saving/ Quick Save not working. ![]() Original Characters losing skills and attributes.Performance & Frame drops despite great specs.HP gets reverted when transitioning to another scene.Unable to adjust brightness from the in-game menu.Unable to join co-op matches with friends.Host stuck at 33% in co-op & guest unable to join again.Progression resets while playing co-op (quest and character). ![]() Still, I haven’t experienced egregious load times yet on PS5. And that’s fine! Also, login and loading hangups are not entirely based on the speed of your console’s SSD as there are server-side implications to consider. For the haptic feedback aspect, they didn’t really use the adaptive triggers, as the team didn’t feel like there were many ways they could capitalize on it. Enhanced audio (using the Sony headphones, I didn’t notice a super-sized increase in quality, but it is impressive).Subtle haptic feedback (this isn’t that much of a big deal to me, but it’s nice that they tried).Faster load times (in my experience, it’s only a few seconds, down from upward of 30 seconds in some cases).A cleaner UI with more distinct icons (seeing the detail on a console is wild!).60 FPS on 1440p and 1080p settings, with a target of 40 FPS for 4K. ![]() 4K visuals (with varying resolution options, down to 1080p).In my experience, they could basically roll this out today and be fine. It’s an open access trial that’s basically just stress testing and checking for bugs. Well, it kind of already is now!

Hopefully this guide might help someone though, maybe it'll help some of you dip your toes into the world of RE.Top - # A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Making that crack was a lot more work than I just described above though, I really couldn't write a guide for that for newcomers, since like I said you'd need experience with RE already. If they ever change up the DRM none of what I've said above will really help at all, I don't really see that happening though, but if they ever do I've already came up with a crack that works a lot different to this one already, so we should be fine in any case. Making a crack from scratch is normally a lot harder, you really need some experience with RE/programming for that. The same methods above should work to find it, just instead of searching for the byte that's changed, search for the instructions that reference that byte instead)īut to be honest what I just said above is hardly cracking at all, since you're just porting an already made crack. (also, sometimes the byte to change won't actually be inside a function, and is just referenced by some code somewhere instead. There's tools like BinDiff that can compare functions from different versions to find matches too. there's a ton of other ways you could do it though, signature searching can work well with finding functions since the start of functions don't really change that much. ![]() say sub_140567DF8 is referenced by a CreateThreadEx call), then in the uncracked one just look at every CreateThreadEx call and see which one is similar to the call inside the cracked version, once you've found that it's a good bet whatever function is being passed to CreateThreadEx is the function you're looking for. say the byte to change is at +0x3FDA from the start of sub_140567DF8 in the already cracked version, once you've found sub_140567DF8 inside the version you're cracking (maybe it's at sub_140692EA0 instead), you can just go to sub_140692EA0 + 0x3FDA and hopefully the byte to change is somewhere around there.Īctually finding those functions is a different matter, usually you can just find what references that function (eg. Luckily the bytes you need to change don't normally move around much relative to the function they're inside, so you can usually just use the offset of the byte from the start of the function instead. So searching manually isn't really an option here. With Cemu those DRM functions are tens of thousands of bytes long though, filled with obfuscation and other shit to try and make you pull your hair out reversing it. Sometimes it's as easy as searching for the bytes around the one your changing ("signature searching"), but usually those will differ so you'll probably have to search through it manually. Then open the version you're cracking in IDA and locate those same functions, and go through the functions to find the bytes/instructions you need to change, that's the jist of it anyway. ![]() You basically just have to find the bytes that were changed in the version you're porting from, by comparing the uncracked patreon build vs cracked (of the same version ofc), then use something like IDA Pro to find what functions those bytes are inside. Well for a crack like this it isn't really that hard to pull off, since we're just porting the crack from another version. ![]() ![]() From a macro level, we felt this would be a huge opportunity, and there is also the personal element of potentially being able to impact millions of merchants.” “We also know good potential exists in Indonesia, where we can help 60 million micromerchants come online and digitize. “We can look at this more deeply given the experience we have monetizing merchants at Grab and Carousell,” Chauhan said. But the inspiration behind BukuWarung is also personal, because both Chauhan and Peddisetty’s families run small neighborhood stores. Chauhan also worked on products for merchants at Grab, the largest ride-sharing and on-demand delivery company in Southeast Asia. BukuWarung has also raised seed funding from East Ventures, AC Ventures, Golden Gate Ventures, Tanglin Ventures, Samporna, as well as strategic angel investors from Grab, Gojek, Flipkart, PayPal, Xendit, Rapyd, Alterra, ZEN Rooms and other companies.Ĭhauhan and Peddisetty met while working together at Singapore-based, peer-to-peer marketplace Carousell, where they focused on developing monetization products for sellers. The startup is currently taking part in Y Combinator’s startup accelerator program. Their goal is to start with bookkeeping tools, before expanding into services, including access to working capital. Chinmay Chauhan and Abhinay Peddisetty, the co-founders of BukuWarung, want to digitize the process with a financial platform designed especially for small Indonesian businesses. Many often extend informal lines of credit to shoppers, but much of their financial tracking is still done with pen and paper ledgers. In Indonesia, there are about 60 million “micromerchants,” typically small store owners who sell food and other staple items, and have close relationships with their customers. I appreciate the warning, but, in this case, the software is legitimate. Instead, you need to purchase it directly from the developer.Īlso, you’ll get a warning during installation that the software is from an unknown developer. You can’t purchase the software using the Mac App Store. As you can imagine, it suddenly became a hot topic among college campuses across the country as to how they would provide this service. Some universities such as Penn State have further required that all publicly available videos be closed captioned or transcripts provided in order to make them accessible. “In addition, state and local colleges and other post-secondary institutions must provide effective communication for deaf and hard-of-hearing students to continue to receive federal funding. The laws will be revisited in the future if broadcasters are going to deliver a majority of their programming online. In 2012, Congress passed the Twenty- first Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010 forces broadcasters to add closed captions to all program- ming that previously aired on TV. “With recent legislation, another reason to caption video is simply that it is the law. ![]() I want to expand a bit on the legal aspect of closed captioning. Similarly, if the viewer does not have headphones and cannot turn up the volume due to the need to keep noise to a minimum (like in a library or nursery), the captions are there to provide what is being spoken.If the viewer is in a noisy area and does not have access to headphones, the captions can be read while watching the video.Language learning relies heavily on captioned video.Many videos that are provided to the public must be captioned either due to federal communication law, or merely a company’s policy regarding accessibility. Captioned video also opens your market reach to a whole new segment of paying customers – the deaf!.The video’s transcripts are searchable, so you will get better Search Engine Optimization (SEO), which may give you a leg up on your competition.Captioned videos have better user retention of the video content.The following text is from the Movie Captioner eBook:Ĭaptioning video not only makes video accessible to the deaf and hard-of-hearing, but there are other compelling reasons for it as well. If captions are something you need to do, I recommend you take a close look at MovieCaptioner.Ī 14-day free trial is available, as are volume discounts. While it does not yet natively support CEA-708 format captions, there are work-arounds which support that format and the developer is about to release an update which will support this latest format as well. MovieCaptioner is flexible, capable and supports a wide variety of import formats and an even wider variety of export formats for web and broadcast. I want to especially mention his excellent eBook, which provides a background on closed captioning as well as practical advice on using the program. MovieCaptioner is a low-cost, easy-to-use alternative to expensive services and software which creates and adds closed-captions on movies.ĭeveloped by Patrick Besong, whose day job is in Penn State’s Education Technology Services department, its available for either Macintosh and Windows systems, features a straight-forward interface, and offers responsive support from the developer. So, in doing some research, I discovered a very cost-effective alternative: MovieCaptioner, from SynchriMedia. If you are a small production house, spending $6K to create captions for 30-second ads for your local broadcast station is a LOT of money. ![]() (Telestream purchased the original company earlier in 2015.) However, while MacCaption has virtually every bell-and-whistle you could want, it’s expensive with a starting price of $1,095 for the web and $6,325 to include broadcast formats. In the past, my knee-jerk reaction was to recommend Telestream’s MacCaption. ![]() I’d love to see some training on how to transcribe program audio, import a transcript format into Final Cut X, and generate a file for broadcast, and a file for web/streaming, and for DVD or BluRay, that is CEA-708-compliant.” ![]() “Larry, we’re going nuts here, trying to figure out the best ways to handle and create closed-captioned videos in FCPX, without spending six grand to buy MacCaption. One of the most frequent requests I get are variations on this email from Mark Suszko: ![]() The study was supported by the National Institutes of Health, the National Institute on Aging, the Icelandic Heart Association and the Icelandic Parliament. “If these findings are confirmed, identifying people with apathy earlier may be one way to target an at-risk group,” Launer said. White matter acts as the communication cables that connect different parts of the brain. Gray matter is where learning takes place and memories are stored in the brain. Excluding people with depression symptoms did not change the results. ![]() The study found that people with two or more apathy symptoms had 1.4 percent smaller gray matter volume and 1.6 percent less white matter volume compared to those who had less than two symptoms of apathy. They were also asked questions that measure apathy symptoms, which include lack of interest, lack of emotion, dropping activities and interests, preferring to stay at home and having a lack of energy. Brain volume losses occur during normal aging, but in this study, larger amounts of brain volume loss could indicate brain diseases.įor the study, 4,354 people without dementia and with an average age of 76 underwent an MRI scan. Launer’s team used brain volume as a measure of accelerated brain aging. And the fact that participants in our study had apathy without depression should turn our attention to how apathy alone could indicate brain disease.” “Apathy symptoms are common in older people without dementia.
