Cocina audio bitperfect5/11/2023 ![]() Here is the example for selecting ALSA as the output of MPD: ![]() The configuration file allow the selection of the output plugin. The MPD documentation indicates that it is capable of outputting to 15 plugins (ALSA, PulseAudio, OSS, etc). (The default configuration for mpd -as installed for debian, uses ALSA.) The mpd configuration file is at /etc/mpd.conf. Client programs communicate with MPD to manipulate playback, the playlist, and the database. MPD simply runs in the background playing music from its playlist. Since Volumio and RuneAudio are using MPD, It is a good idea to select MPD and figure out how it works. This may not be an issue as modern applications do not have a need to use the older OSS v3 interface. Output using a wrapper API which outputs using any of the above 3 methodsĪ further simplification is to restrict the use of ALSA through the ALSA API (a more modern API) and avoid using the OSS v3 API (Legacy API).Output using OSS version 3 API directly to ALSA’s Kernel API.Output using ALSA API to sound mixer, which outputs to ALSA’s Kernel API (when sound mixing is enabled).Output using ALSA API directly to ALSA’s Kernel API (when sound mixing is disabled).And indeed it can be bypassed:Ī sound developer who wishes to output sound in their application can take any of the following routes with ALSA: The key message here is that ALSA looks like a “simple” interface between an audio application and the hardware and that there is a Mixer (Sound Mixing) outside the Kernel that CAN can potentially be bypassed. A graphical description of ALSA is as follows: This site also has a good overview of the different sound subsystems in Linux. ![]() (At least PulseAudio and Jack are are installed when installing MPD) In our case, restricting to ALSA looks like a good option since it is already included in the Debian BBB release. In our quest for bit-perfect audio, A reasonable approach to simplify the audio path is by minimizing the number of components through which the audio stream can possibly travel.Ī practical way to do this is to direct the application to use a single audio subsystem. Audio applications such as MPD can use either ALSA, PureAudio or OSS in order to appeal to a wider audience and provide compatibility to new, old and in-between versions and flavors of Linux. An application can use Alsa, routed through Jack and back to Alsa or it can use PulseAudio to OSS or Alsa all the way. Here is a very simplified and high diagram describing the different audio subsystems and their relationship :Īnd application can literally take any route through the different components in order to arrive at the hardware. ![]() An application can use anyone of these subsystems and in fact they do in order to provide wide appeal and compatibility. To and audio application, Linux audio provides several audio subsystems through which audio can be channeled: ALSA, PulseAudio, Jackd, OSS and others. It enters your Linux box at one point and leaves at another. This is a failure because there’s nothing intrinsically more complicated about audio than any other technology. This soon becomes evident if you sit down with a piece of paper and try to draw the relationships between the technologies involved with taking audio from a music file to your speakers: the diagram soon turns into a plate of knotted spaghetti. There’s a problem with the state of Linux audio, and it’s not that it doesn’t always work. Here is a depiction of Linux audio (circa 2008) : It is almost ironic that the quest for a “perfect audio appliance” which led us to the “simpler”, low power (the BBB consumes less than 5W) and light-weight world of embedded Linux, has also led us to the incredibly complex world of Linux audio.īecause of its long evolution, long list of requirements from both sound professionals and consumers, and open development environment, many audio subsystems have flourished, each having their own set of unique features, duplicating features from each other, providing interfaces to as many applications (even legacy applications) as possible and attempting to interfaces to each other.

Hopefully, this has given you a better idea of what it’s like to recover from a tummy tuck. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with your surgeon if anything feels off or you are experiencing any major side effects including: Ensuring that all of their patients remain healthy after the procedure is part of the job description. Try to get yourself into a good headspace, whether it’s through meditation, journaling, or whatever else helps you relax.ĭo Contact Your Surgeon If Something Feels Wrongĭon’t worry, you aren’t bothering them. Most women are happy they underwent the procedure once they do see their results, but if you aren’t realistic about how long the process takes then it’s going to be an unpleasant wait.įeeling a bit of anxiety about your procedure is totally normal, but too much worry can interfere with the healing process. In fact, the full extent of your results may not become apparent for months. The tummy tuck can be a life-changing procedure, but it takes some time to perform its magic. Some surgeons won’t even perform cosmetic procedures on patients who have smoked within the past few months, so that should tell you how serious this point is! Nicotine and other drugs can reduce blood flow and make it harder for the incision to heal. You’ll be asked to stop smoking before your procedure. This isn’t something you want to drop on someone with a few days notice. The important thing is that you start asking friends, family, or loved ones for help sooner rather than later. You won’t be feeling up to much for your first few days at home either. First off, you’ll need some help getting home immediately after the procedure - you won’t be in any condition to drive. Recovering from a tummy tuck isn’t something you want to do solo. It’s in their best interest to ensure that you achieve an impressive outcome so you should always take the advice that they offer up. Some of it will be advice that they’ve accumulated through years of being a plastic surgeon. Some of it will be detailed instructions that you absolutely must follow. Your surgeon will have a lot to say to you both before and after the procedure. If an activity is too painful, stop immediately and inform your surgeon. Start slow and make a mental note of how you feel every day. But you should be careful about when and how you resume physical activity even once you’re feeling up to it. You’ll feel groggy, sore, and the last thing you’re going to want to do is run around. For the first few days after your surgery, you probably aren’t going to have an issue with this.

Shenmue 3 20165/10/2023 The campaign has ample time to reach the goals: it won't end until July 17. If the campaign reaches $4 million, the developers promise expanded mini-games within the title. More cash will allow the developers to support subtitles in German, French and Spanish, among others. By exceeding $2.5 million, gamers can now expect Shenmue 1 and 2 "cinema shorts" in addition to Shenmue 3. With the $2 million now secured, Suzuki, his team, and perhaps even fans, have their sights set on stretch goals. "If we do not reach our funding goal, Shenmue 3 will not go forward," he wrote on the Kickstarter page. In a statement on the Kickstarter page, Suzuki said his team needs the $2 million to press forward with the game's development. Interestingly, Sega has handed over the rights to the Shenmue franchise to Suzuki and his team and will not have a role in the game's development. It was filled with explosions and combat that we've come to expect from the franchise and it will be here in 2016. Uncharted 4: The Thief's End took us on a wild ride as Drake took the wheel of a jeep and slammed through villages (without hitting a single civilian) as an armored truck tried to take them out. To end the Sony press conference at E3, Sony showed off one of the most popular franchises that needed no introduction. Yu Suzuki then came on stage to officially launch the Kickstarter campaign for the game. Sony shocked video game fans during its E3 keynote on Monday when it announced that the Shenmue series was alive and would come to the company's PlayStation 4 console. Each time, Sega rebuffed their overtures, focusing instead on other software properties, like Sonic. Over the last 14 years, gamers around the world have used petitions, fan sites and social media to call for a continuation of the Shenmue franchise. Sega, which published both titles, decided to shelve the franchise, even though the second game never provided an end to the storyline. Shenmue 2, a follow-up to the original game, launched on the Dreamcast in 2001 and Xbox in 2002, but was not nearly as popular as its predecessor. The first title, which delivered a compelling storyline as Hazuki tried to avenge his father's death at the hands of antagonist Lan Di, was popular with gamers. The game was first envisioned as a multi-part epic detailing the life of protagonist Ryo Hazuki. ![]() It was created by famed developer Yu Suzuki and brought to the ill-fated Sega Dreamcast in 1999.

Backers are still staying within the loop on development, and the development team are wisely not colouring the view of the game by prematurely showing pre-release materials. Cedric Biscay has also said they are waiting to polish the game more before revealing it fully to the public again. The Kickstarter has been updating monthly and detailing work done on the game, such as the storyboarding process for the cutscenes, testing motion capture rigs, and environmental design artwork. That said, there is zero cause for alarm. Of course, games slip more frequently than ever these days, so a move into 2018 may happen and I don't personally believe it will make December 2017. As of June 2016, Producer Cedric Biscay has also revealed he tested a playable slice of Shenmue III, so they have at least made progress to the point where something can be played. As of interviews in February, Yu Suzuki and Producer Cedric Biscay have said that the game is still on track to release in that window. The game is scheduled for December 2017 and has been from the start.

Just 40 days after her birth, young Annie would die of marasmus, a rare disease in which the body suffers malnutrition due to an inability to metabolize proteins. Unfortunately, the Winchesters’ joy would be short-lived. Four years into the marriage, Sarah bore a daughter named Annie Pardee Winchester. During the marriage, William worked as treasurer for his family’s company alongside his father. William and Sarah Winchester married in September 1862. When Tragedy Struck Sarah Winchester’s Family In particular, the 1873 model was incredibly popular with settlers and was widely used during the American Indian wars.īetween the massive sales and increasing popularity, the Winchester family amassed quite a fortune - a fortune that would one day become the foundation of Sarah Winchester’s strange obsession. The company had made a name for itself as one of the first to mass-produce firearms with the ability to fire multiple rounds without reloading. The only son of firearms manufacturer Oliver Winchester, William was heir to the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. ![]() By the time Sarah was of age to marry, her parents already had someone in mind - a man who would ensure their daughter would be taken care of for her entire life. To make matters easier, the Pardee family was acquainted with several other affluent families through their church. Her high position in society put Sarah in an excellent position for marriage to an equally-privileged man. The family ensured that their seven children were well rounded: Sarah learned four languages as a child and was admitted to the “Young Ladies Collegiate Institute” at Yale College. Her father, Leonard Pardee, was a successful carriage manufacturer, and her mother was popular in the upper echelons of New Haven’s society.

It doesn't show brilliantly well but there is also a 'rat' piece on the table to represent the dormouse character from the book.
