We are working on a software update to address this issue. It didn’t work on a 10.13 (17A365) machine, but that one is also loaded up with AOL bloatware - sorry, Oath bloatware - which may affect things. So far this has worked on every preference panel we’ve tried, and when I used “root” at the login screen it immediately created and pulled up a new user with system administrator privileges. Do not leave your Mac unattended until this is resolved. You can add administrators, change critical settings, lock out the current owner, and so on. Once you log in, you’ve essentially authenticated yourself as the owner of the computer. Needless to say, this is incredibly, incredibly bad. The bug appears to have been first noticed by Lemi Orhan Ergin, founder of Software Craftsman Turkey, who noted it publicly on Twitter. Doing so creates a “root” account that others may be able to take advantage of if you don’t disable it. There’s no need to do this yourself to verify it. After a few tries, it should log right in. No need to do that any more! Just enter “root” instead of your user name and hit enter. Normally you’d click that to enter your user name and password, which are required to change important settings like those in Security & Privacy. The bug is most easily accessed by going to Preferences and then entering one of the panels that has a lock in the lower left-hand corner. Apple will fix it probably within hours, but holy moly. On Macs running the latest version of High Sierra - 10.13.1 (17B48) - it appears that anyone can log in just by putting “root” in the user name field. Update: Apple has acknowledged the issue and is working on it.

I want the Mikro to go through Deck C so I disconnected all the other decks and set Deck C’s inputs to BumbleBee L & BumbleBee R. This is where the Maschine Mirko will play through one of your decks. For this setup, you can follow the the list below: Ĭlick on Output Routing – mixing mode is set to internal. I set my sample rate to 44100 Hz and Latency for my computer worked well at 512. Choose your new ‘ sound card’ you just created, in my case I chose ‘ BumbleBee’. Time to open Traktor’s preferences window – and navigate to Audio Setup on the left. Close the Audio MIDI Setup app – we’re well on the way! STEP THREE: TRAKTOR PREFERENCES If this port is already in use by another internal MIDI routing, you can create an additional port by first clicking on the arrow next to ‘More Information’ and then clicking the + button on the bottom left of the property window. Click on ‘More Information’ – by default a port called “Bus 1” already exists. In the properties dialog, click the “Device is online” checkbox to make it active. The Traktor Virtual Output is not as reliable as the built-in IAC Driver. This is where you’ll create the virtual driver to be able to send the midi clock to the Maschine software. Still in Audio Midi Setup, go to Window > Show Midi Window – and double click on the IAC Driver icon to bring up the properties dialog. I used Traktor Kontrol S2 as the clock source and set the sample rate to 44100 Hz (I used this setting as I’m only using MP3s). With your aggregated device highlighted, mark the ‘ use‘ and ‘ Drift Correction‘ check boxes for the Traktor Kontrol S2 and Soundflower (2ch). You can change the name by double clicking on Aggregate Device next to the big blue and white plus. This allows you to create a virtual sound card with all the ins and outs you need. If you don’t see the audio window (image at left), use the menubar: Window>Show Audio Window.Ĭlick on the + sign at the bottom left, and Create Aggregate Device. Open up Audio MIDI Setup located in the Applications/Utilities folder. STEP TWO: CREATE AN AUDIO DEVICE Click to zoom and see the full audio device settings. First, download and install Soundflower (made by Cycling 74, the same team behind MaxMSP) – and restart your computer! Soundflower allows routing of audio between applications on one computer. Since the Kontrol S2 sound card has no available inputs, we need to trick the computer into thinking it is using a sound card with all the available ins and outs we are going to need. Audio MIDI Setup (pre-installed on OSX in Applications>Utilities).This setup was accomplished with my Macbook, Traktor Kontrol S2, and Maschine Mikro – so no external MIDI cable connections were possible (the Mikro and S2 don’t have the MIDI ports that other audio interfaces and controllers offer). Like many DJTT readers, I can’t afford another laptop right now – so I had to make this work with just what was available! STEP ONE: GEAR UP Some places talked about using the full-sized Maschine and Kontrol S4, both of which have the ability to plug-in a MIDI cable, while others (like in Chris Liebing’s DJTT interview) suggest using two computers to run his Maschine and Traktor all syncronized with an external sound card. I searched the internet high and low for an answer. The loop recorder can also record Maschine loops, which can be used later on in the Remix Decks. With this setup I can control the Maschine’s output via one of the decks and be able to control its EQ, volume, and add Traktor effects. Naturally the first thing I wanted to do was to take the output of the Maschine Software and re-route it back into one of my decks via a Live Input Deck in Traktor. Recently a friend of mine, DJ MtP, decided to give me a new early birthday present – he got the newer version of Maschine so he gave me his first generation Maschine Mikro. Today we’re looking how to route and sync Maschine with Traktor – allowing recording, EQ, and effects while maintaining a synchronized BPM across both softwares. The Native Instruments Maschine software and hardware is very much at home in a production workflow, but bringing the audio output into Traktor isn’t especially intuitive, especially if you’re limited by the number of computers you can use or don’t have MIDI ports on your controller or soundcard. It’s like going on a world tour without ever leaving your couch! So whether it’s a quick lap around Coconut Mall or a mad dash through Rainbow Road, you’ll find a racetrack that will either make you a legend or a laughingstock.

In the universe of handheld gaming, Mario Kart 7 reigns supreme as the crown jewel of the 3DS platform. All the games on scale to fit any size screen so you can enjoy them on any device. It is frustrating when you are trying to play a game but its size is completely different to your screen. All of the games on the homepage of this site are compatible on any device. Or you want to show a friend you can pull it up on their tablet. I wanted to make a consistent experience on any device so if you play a fun game on your computer in the afternoon you can come back later on your phone to play it in bed. Other times if you visit the website on desktop then mobile you are presented with completely different games. Often web games will only work on computers and if you visit on a mobile device they don't play. I wanted to create a consistent experience across all devices. I'm not saying that online games should replace apps - I think there are great reasons for both and they can happily exist alongside each other □ 3. Online Games solve all of these problems. They can only be played on one type of device (iPhone, Android etc.). It can be a drag waiting for them to install when you just want to quickly play something new. For instance it can be tiresome installing and deleting many apps to find the game you want. I think there are some compelling reasons to give online games another shot though. Online □Īpps have been the most popular way to play casual games for a while now. All of our games and all of their content is 100% free - no exceptions! 2. All of the games on this website are complete full games with no in-game purchases whatsoever. This strategy works and some people are spending huge amounts of money on their favorite games over time without realizing how much it has added up. It seems the catch for playing free games is that they will use every trick in the book to make you pay - often many times more than you would pay for a game outright. In-app purchases and micro-transactions have become the norm in free games these days, withholding content or frustrating you to try and make you buy power-ups. With this project there are a number of things that I set out to achieve: 1. I've used this experience along with some new ideas to make this website,, my fresh take on a free game website. What started as a hobby has turned in to my passion and over the past fourteen years I've learned a lot about web games. I've also developed over a hundred web games and they've been played somewhere around a billion times! I picked up some cool awards along the way including a Guinness World Record and a BAFTA Special Commendation. My previous site,, was visited by 65 million people. I've been developing free games and websites since 2006. If you like our Spider Solitaire Offline free game, you can try our other offline card games by SNG.Hi, my name is Gaz, welcome to my website.

Who knows … And it might be hard to pronounce for non-German speakers. I read it’s named after a mountain that’s named after an artist, okay, but it feels so stupid to have “Beer city“ as the default font name. That’s why I would not want it as a default.Īnd as a German speaker I think this name is horrible. My problem is, that this style is so overused within the last decades years. The letter-space are pretty open, there is a double-story g and a serif at the lower case l, which makes the letters more distinguishable, hence better for long reading text. It’s a good take on it regarding a text-typeface. This is the Hellvetica-Arial-Roboto-San-Franciso-Univers-and-so-on super-popular mid-century Grotesque sans-serif style we have all seen so many times. Save yourself this trouble by downloading my pdf-sample, or watching the video □. Maybe they want people to go into the application to test them out? So I had to sign up for a trial version of Office 365 which was painful enough. This is pretty wired, since they want people to state their choice, but you can’t see them on the article in a document. In their “Beyond Calibri” blog post, Microsoft only showed some nice individual letters of every typeface. And you should really do this, because you can only get a feeling for them when you apply them. Right now you only get the fonts with an Office 365 subscription, then they are activated automatically, and you can try them out in Word or any other application. After over 12 years I think it’s okay to start a new era. Calibri was fine, it was soft, rounded and friendly, also a bit small. Most of all it should not stand in your way, let you put out your content, and will eventually disappear. Bierstadt is a more readable Helvetica, Tenorite a friendlier Futura, and Grandview a wider and more body-text suited DIN. Both represent the humanistic sans-serifs. My favorite is Skeena, the most interesting one is Seaford. TL DR: All fonts are well crafted and represent different popular sans-serif styles. While this model wasn’t one of the products we tested, we would be remiss not to include it in our top picks. You are limited with your recipe output due to its smaller capacity.
One the aforementioned HR leader convinced the CEO that he(HR guy) had some insight on how to run a large telcom conglomerate and lobbied to install a new leader of operations. In my opinion there are 2 main reason for the distruction of this much shareholder value. This is the return we received from the “Tom Brady” of Telecom? This isnt exactly “Barbians at the Gate” type of story …but its close in a different sort of way. You combine that with CTL sacrificing its CFO as part of the merger agreement (im not exactly sure but I believe that the 元 CFO lasted a year), a CTL HR leader who was fixated on pedigree rather than performance and a new, rather toxic culture, that specifically targeted elimination for most legacy CTL leaders and you end up with a stock that went from $23.48 to currently under $6. Corvex kept up the marketing that CTL had 40% upside and suggesting that Story and team had better track records at driving Shareholder value. It appears Story used Corvex to help start the dominos and the outcome was the ousting of Post in favor of Story. Touting Jeff Story as a better choice to lead CTL shareholders to better returns than the then existing CEO Glen Post. Corvex was seen as a friendly activist investor. There is a quite alot that can learned in value creation by the 元 CTL merger/acq and shareholder ignorance or competencies. a previous $3.2B-$3.4B).įull disclosure - I was a former employee of Qwest/Centurylink for almost 7 years.
