Okay, so I'm very glad to be here. I have heard of your region of the country. I've been to New Mexico. I've been to many states, by the way, and New Mexico is very nice. What? Pardon me? Louder. Okay, I'm gonna go like this. Okay, thank you. I'll switch to Oprah mode. Okay, so as I was saying, New Mexico is my place. I walked here from the nice hotel and I experienced cars. So I felt the car society. I used to live in Dallas for a while. So I felt that similarity because when it's hot, you don't want to walk outside. I got that. So I got here and I started taking pictures and I have about 39 minutes. I'm big on time and I believe that everything should be about some kind of tangible value exchange. You came here, you've been lunch, you're kind of sleepy now. That was high calories folks. Those are big max times a few, right? So it may be kind of stunned a bit by the calories. So I'd like to ask all of you that if you have a question about something that I'm talking about and you were meaning to ask a question or something, just text me right here and I can get your question anytime while I'm blah blah blah lying. Okay, and then what I'll do is I'll stop because I can answer your question because oftentimes what happens is people talk and you can't ask any questions. So I invented this new way to be interactive. It's also very introvert inclusive. You know what I'm talking about? We're like the three excellent extroverts that get up and they're like, oh no, I wanted that question. Direct line here. Okay, so go ahead, all right. And this number will appear throughout the slide so it's not lost but there it is. Okay, all right. So I am a student of change. Change is this wonderful terrible thing because change is always needed but it's okay if they change, not okay if I change because that sounds like work. And one of my favorite quotes by Eric Shinseki is if you dislike change, you're going to dislike irrelevance even more. It kind of hits you, right?  All right. Okay. Maybe I want to change but just now I had this amazing lesson. I gave you three eyes, by the way, sorry about that. I had this great moment with Jamie and she defined change in a new way for me. She said, I quote, people aren't ready for change unless the alternative is provably better, right? That provably. Jamie, you nailed it because you want to know with 100.0% that this change that's coming down the line is going to work, right? Because every day you've had pancakes at McDonald's and they were awesome. And then one day, like, I think you need a special avocado spritzer, cupcake, mac or whatever, right? And like, no, I don't know about that. That may not give me assistance for the whole day, right? So you kind of doubt it. And if someone, if the piece of paper says, I give you 100% guarantee it's going to be okay, then you might do it, right? But on the other hand, McDonald's is going to do that for you. So, right? So no one wants to change to something new because there's risk involved and people who are trying to bring out change with something new are likely to fail because it isn't guaranteed. Likely meaning not truly likely, but a little likely means likely, right? It's a fail. So that's why I had such an enjoyable time listening to my colleague Ashley Axios over there. Can you get another round of applause for Ashley? That was a, I just kind of went away thinking about stuff and she had 15 or so tips about how to approach how you work as a creative person and work with change, work against change in some cases, but work with change and also foment change. Number six, give space for emotion really caught my attention because when you're trying to convince someone that that change has a high probability of working out, what's the first thing you're going to do? You're going to powerpoint them, right? Our survey shows that 92.8% of the people will come on board or even I was like, oh my gosh, spreadsheets, numbers and like, I wrote a five page white paper. You know, it's going to prove it to you, right? And it's got facts and facts. I was nine and one seven. No problem introverts. It says, thank you for the introverts. Come, come. Your house is in my phone. People want to hear facts because people think facts are going to change your mind. But to Ashley's point, the motion in part is really important. And I'm a big believer in having them all. You know, like the you go to buy food, and there's this item on the menus, the fisherman's platter, it's got the scallops, it's got the trim, I go for that. I love variety. And in that variety, bringing about change, facts, I love facts, but emotions, I love emotions too. And if you might notice, I have this a t-shirt on. This t-shirt, it was designed by Christelle Rossignale. She is on Ashley's team. And it has a, it has a G motif or do you see G here? It's hidden. There's also bunnies here on the edges if we can't see them very festive. And on the back, there is a, you know, the Cheshire cat, Cheshire cat, the cat goes invisible and all you only to see the smile, it's got a Cheshire Wapoo. Do you see it? Like what is that? The Wapoo's hiding from you. And why are these kind of items being created by the automatic design team? It's because we believe that this ecosystem that we're all living in needs that emotional element that goes beyond the code, goes into this sense of belongingness that's so strong to WordPress. And so it's one example. This isn't, this is a new thing I'm doing recently that I realized that one big problem we have in the WordPress ecosystem is we're kind of stuck in the desktop world.  Yeah, good laptop. And everyone's got laptops. Not true, right? Everyone has smartphones. So anytime we spend 80% of our time figuring out a desktop problem, we're losing market share to a world that's moved over to not just smartphones, but every person out there has moved to that. So internally, and I think maybe I'll make a t-shirt too. Who's been to London? London visitors? London? London? You know that's that sign? It says mind the gap. Mind the gap means there's a gap as you're going to step onto the train. And that gap is big. So if you just cannot walk in and do that, you fall. So mind the mobile is a phrase that I like to say as often as possible together with Wapoo because it becomes more friendly that way. Wapoo makes everything more friendly. And mind the mobile is hard if you love desktop. Who loves desktop? Come on, everyone loves desktop. Come on, bigger screen, more ways to navigate, pick perfection. You know, it's so good, right? It's hard to imagine this mobile thing. So I just want to say that it's out there. It's growing. It's already grown pretty much. And it's kind of an issue. Now, I love this quote that success is achieved by developing our strengths, not by eliminating our weaknesses. This is by Marilyn Boss Savant. She's like a super men's genius. And I bring this up because I've been fortunate. I've joined Automatic a little over a year ago. And I've had the gift from all of you to be invited to attend many word camps, not just here in the US, but also in Europe, and soon in Asia as well. And people ask me, why do I go to word camps? It's because I believe that all the strength of WordPress is living in the word camps. And the only way to understand it and fight for it is to visit as much as possible. So I'm so glad to be here, you know? It's just a thrill for me. And that's why another example is this t-shirt has just come out. It's in horizontal and vertical. It says wordpress.org, established in 2003. I mean, internet time, that's a century ago, right? But, you know, when you see someone wearing a rat wearing an Airbnb dev shirt, it's like, you know, pretty cool. But establish what year? This is going way back. So we're trying to recreate some of the pride that you all feel. Now, someone can say, well, what's a t-shirt gonna do? Like, how's it gonna change anything? Well, it's gonna change anything at all. But it's gonna open a door, open a door to seeing ourselves in this ecosystem. There's another shirt called WordPress University. I met so many people who have told me that they learned how to code. They learned how to have a trade because of WordPress. And so it's essentially an alumni network of people who are practitioners because in large senses, the tech industry, the tech industry has excluded so many people. If you know the stories about Silicon Valley, that it is a amazing place that has tended to be more or less inclusive than the rest of the world, that's very easy to see from the outside, right? But WordPress has been not that way because it's owned by so many people together through so many walks of life. And that's a huge strength. It's an advantage that very few technology products have. So these things that put a put a label onto it, make it visible, I think are very important. Now, those of you, so who's new to WordPress in the last couple of years? Like I kind of ended up here by accident. Okay, there we go. Thank you. Yeah. Okay. So, you know, when people ask why WordPress is interesting or important, I point out that anytime you'd like to introvert send a question, I point out that I remember when the net was young, clear members of the net was young. Who remembered, yeah, who remember ARPA Net, all those early server days, you know, there was a time where you couldn't email someone, you had to bounce it off five computers to get to that person and you had to list the computers to route it, right? So it was, it was, it was the old days, you know, and the computers weren't designed for everyone to be used. You know, there was a time where people said the world will only need seven computers, stuff like that, you know. And it's a very complex system and emerged from military needs of communication to kind of accidentally entering into the research world to support academic communication, knowledge sharing.  But the big moment didn't happen until 2008, which is the same time as the global financial crisis, but the same time when smartphones started to get traction. And that's when every living person could have access to a high end computer in their pocket or purse. Now, before that, however, before the smartphone revolution, though, it was still the Wild West. And the winners weren't clear. And the network is really complex. And there were many developers trying to free the capability of this network stack of technology. A very complex network that really one single mind couldn't understand. Many papers are written about it. But the chaos of it was interesting. I remember at MIT, I just remember that one of the core networks was called ChaosNet. Because they're just like, whoa, what is this magical alien technology? And we don't fully understand it, but it's working out okay. So this is how the net is, was, and will continue to be. I should note that all of you who work in WordPress know there's this thing called the command line, right? It's like, whoa, I'm down here in the matrix. Right? And it's funny because it looks exactly the same as in the 70s. It's like the same thing. So I was like, wow, that thing's been in there for a long time, you know? And like many things have been done for a long time, you have what's called deferred maintenance problems. Do you know like, or technical debt is a different way to say it, but everyone knows I will talk about London. So there's a statistic I read that 40% of London's water gets lost in the water supply system, the underground supply system, because of all the leaks in it. So imagine you're pushing water into the London homes, knowing you're going to lose close to half of the water. But luckily, technology isn't like water. It's stackable. It's layerable. It's fault tolerant. So the layers are strong. But they're complex. And there's this influential paper that came out in 1999, called the Cathedral and the Bazaar. Who's ever heard of this? Raise your hand. Okay, excellent. Because knowing this is knowing this can open a whole like magic wardrobe door to understanding why this WordPress thing is truly odd and interesting. Because there was a time when technology companies, they're very few controlled everything. And there were freedom fighters, super coders who sought to make free versions of software. And like all these human things we do, we kind of like bifurcate, like, I'm gonna go this way. I'm gonna go this way.  I'm gonna go this way.  You know, they're getting kind of like sci fi movie. Oh, you're over there. Yeah, I'm over there. I'm here. Okay. All right. Yeah. There was a small group that believed that they could create a better version of the UNIX operating system. Having a small group, small team, develop in privacy. And every once in a while, they share the code for everyone to compile and run. That was the GNU movement. And then there was this man, Linus Travalds. He thought maybe what we'll do is we'll start writing this UNIX clone. And we'll let anyone change the source code, like anyone, anyone.  That's not gonna work. This proven that this can't work. You can't just open the whole thing and say, let's go build it together and have a party and boom, it's going to win. But it won. And why did it win? It won in large part because it mirrors the system it's in. The system itself is too complicated to understand by one, six, 10, 20 people. But a collective of hundreds and thousands of people suddenly becomes possible. And when you think about the history of software systems that succeeded like this, like Linux, WordPress is one of the famous canonical examples of the bizarre approach to development, which sounds like bizarre, right? Can you imagine like, okay, let's all build this up together? It's not possible, you saying, but the technology itself, the underlying network technology itself affords the possibility. But it's the people that fill in that gap. And the people are working with everyone else's best interests in mind. And that's, especially in this day and age, it's pretty special. That's a coming to word camps. I can just see it all over the place. Because a bizarre is looks like this to someone, right? It's messy. It's impossible. Now, when you think about the cathedral versus the bizarre, however, people will jump to conclusions. Right? It's like a cocker Pepsi. Is that dangerous here? This is Dr Pepper place. I never know where kind of part of the country. There you go. 314 says WordPress University School of Inspect Elements. Thank you 314. So some people believe in the bizarre. They are the true open source warriors. Some people still believe in the cathedral. Companies especially believe in the cathedral, right? It's like, I'll give it to you. When I think it's okay. And bosses, bosses, bosses says it's okay. And now it's okay. And don't you dare open it. And I'll come back and I'll get you give you the next one, right? So who is it good for? Which side? Now, here's the problem. Remember, I said how like 2008 happened and this thing like this phone thing became a Star Trek communicator device that every living person can use even like a two year old or one year old, maybe like dogs using things nowadays too. So it's pretty amazing, right? And it became lucrative at the same time to and money was infused into the ecosystem. And so what happened is open source ecosystems didn't get the level of funding that the cathedrals the companies received. And so we can say that's okay, that's no big deal. Because before 2008, there weren't that many computers. You can still kind of compete. But after 2008, we got smartphones and everyone has a computer. This looks like good money. So imagine the spigot turned on once again, even stronger. And that spigot not hitting the open source world. What happens? What happens is this experience gets better. Not just like a little better, like a lot better. Because it's trying to solve regular people's problems. When I said regular people, I mean, like Kim Kardashian, she's amazing regular person, right?  See, I mean, she's busy. She's got her like stuff to do. Right. So the consumer side, high investment, targeting people who don't want to sit on these systems that we have gotten used to on desktop, found ways to make a lot of money off of them and pour it back into it. Making experiences that a lot of people love, like, who loves Instagram, how it feels. Come on. It's nice, isn't it? Yeah. That's an expensive system. Right. Like who likes typing stuff into Google fast, huh? Expensive system. Right. So a lot of money that put into this, you know, a lot of money, a lot of money, a lot of talent came into it. So we have a problem in that the bazaars are not competitive with the cathedrals. And the problem with the bazaar, if you design by bazaar or called designed by committee, bad stuff happens. Right. It's like, I think it should be like this. I think it should be like this. I think it should be like this. And they have to consensus compromise. In the end, there's no opinionated experience. And so I don't believe that the bizarre model is a good way to create a coherent experience for the large majority of people. It requires to what Ashley was saying, understanding who this is for, and recognizing that who this is for, maybe five types, 20 types, a thousand types, and then just choosing which ones to be good at, and just narrowing in on an experience. And mind you, this is costing time, it's costing money, that a lot of volunteers don't have to put it to. So the theory I have, going back to the idea of proving something to you, I can't prove that this is going to change. But I have a strongly held belief that it can. My strongly held belief tells me that right now, we're like big, gigantic bazaar, any tiny cathedral. I think we have to make that what they call Cathedral Mosque Temple SIG has to get a little bigger to be able to more clearly define the experience needs of more people. Now, why is that hard? It's hard because any time introverts.  Google All right, how's the food? It's good, huh? And that's a good mind was good. The food, yes, the food of the Google. Okay, who's been to Google site? Food's good. It's like heaven. You know, it's amazing. This is Google's hiring site. So anyways, recently, this article came out on Google. And the outline was that Google is really good at design. Google is really good design. So and when I joined Automatic, and Matt invited me to come on board, and I was lucky to have Ashley come on board too. It's exciting. He said, you know, I Google is really good design. Can we be good design too? And I said, of course, because WordPress was the best designed alternative. I use WordPress in 2004, 2005, 2006, who remembers when it was the best design solution? Who was there? You remember it, right? It was the best solution. It was the best is oh my gosh, it's so much nicer, it's much better designed. Okay, so what I like is that there's old DNA that we have to reawaken. Don't worry, it isn't bad like Lord of the Rings. There's no like, you know, scary stuff hopefully. But we're gonna reawaken that potential. So I believe tomorrow, sometime in the future, the outline will say WordPress is good design for all. And me and my colleagues are working to imagine how we can execute together as a global community to see this happen. Now, you might be sitting there saying that sounds like a great story. Sounds kind of good. Maybe I want the t t shirt. What color do you have? You know, can you ask his questions? The reason why I believe that the we will we will be able to catch up in some shape or form an experience side is because our parts are good. It's a parts of good. Like I've been traveling the different airports along the way here. And everywhere I go, I get a salad, it's got lettuce, onions, chicken, next salad, lettuce, onion, chickens, right? One costs, you know, $19, one costs $8, but they're all kind of the same. Good salad, right? But you need good ingredients. So a good example is by one automatic designer, I want to show you this. This is an example he made a couple nights ago as a proof of concept I want to show you, which is, you know, everyone's like loves VR AR, if you're tech person, like, Oh, my gosh, you know, I just got this the next version of goggles, whatever kind of thing. This is a simple a frames a frame VR based system talking to the rest API. By the way, the rest API was a key investment on the WordPress end, making it possible for any service to talk to a WordPress site through a separately written program. And this is talking to a website, a WordPress site right now. And this is a post. And if you click on this and put on the little goggles, you'll see it in 3D. And you can move around. Now, would you ever need this? Maybe the future when these things switch over. But at least it tells you that we've got the right stuff. Right? We've got the chicken for the taco salad. It's right there. Okay. And I want to show you this, but I can't play the video very easily. So I'm going to see the for some reason, the USBC thing takes over the audio. So you can't hear it. But one thing I've been doing with my colleagues is role playing. Who knows role playing role playing or you like play? Okay, so have you noticed that if you own a voice enabled device in your house, you're talking to a computer. We noticed that like Alexa, whatever, watch out. You know, you're just talking, right? So I realized that we can make up a lot of conversations. So me and my colleague Bob pretended that I was Alexa. I don't make a good Alexa, but I'm pretty good. So I was going to show you a simulation of Bob talking to Alexa and putting posts, changing things around. And when we saw it, we're like, Oh, the parts are already there. Do something like that if we wanted to, if you wanted to. So to my note that the lettuce is there too. So anything is possible for the future. But we've got to solve the present. We've got to solve the present. And we can't get distracted from the technology. So who here is a developer? Right developer? What do you love the most? New technology? I mean, I'm with MIT. So I'm with you. I love stuff, the new stuff. It's good. It's good. Good. The problem is the new stuff doesn't solve the present day problems of experience debt. And the new stuff is designed to appeal to a narrow audience that loves this stuff. So you might think it's the most important thing in the world. But the average person isn't there yet. So how do we target the non technical person to grow our success is going to require back to the example that I actually showed this morning of narrow focus around who we are serving to be able to design full experiences for them. Now, how to do that? Focus on this for all thing. This for all sounds pretty big, right? It's like that's a little too big in center for before all. For all is cool. Because the for all of the world has changed. You know, I was lucky in my early thirties to be the liaison from MIT to an organization called AARP. As my early thirties, I was like, What is this thing? You know, I go to Washington DC every other week. I visit this two blocks in the DC, gigantic towers. This is AARP. Wow, it's cool. And walk in at the most advanced HD studio. It was so far ahead. And they predicted that a large number of people in America and the world were aging at a rate that was different than the past. Because number one, the boomer generation, number two, medical science is prolonging our lives. And they kept saying to me that this is a whole group of people that will want to be engaged in something. So when I say for all, or when I actually says inclusion, it includes this opportunity that this all is a whole new all. And there's a big opportunity there. Oh, questions again. I'm a pause for a second. 505. Do you believe WordPress and open source in general can survive in a post net neutrality world? How do you see creativity flourishing when corporate interests will control the dissemination? Well, number one, I believe that if systems like WordPress, which which is one of the largest, if not the largest of its kind in this category, it needs to survive because it's holding up the open web. So it isn't a matter of it isn't matter if it'll survive, it needs to survive not just for us and WordPress, but for what all you know, it's given gives freedom to people. So I think that's what we wake up in the morning or come on a Saturday, folks, it's a weekend. It's important thing. And how do you see creativity flourishing when corporate interests will control the dissemination? Well, I want to flip that around. I'll flip it around a bit. So, so there's a thing called the open web, right? Open web means the web. Right? You type in HTTP, you see some stuff is open web. There's also the dark web, I know that but you know, the open web and close web is like Twitter and like the walled garden Facebook, etc. Right. So I think one key that we're already seeing it already. And our designers recently posted about how to blog better how to blog to get a better traction. And the common theme was, Hey, actually, engagement isn't high in the open web. So we have to send our traffic to the close web, which is good, because the web is bigger, right? And I think sometimes in the open web, we think we're beholden by the closed web. But the closed web needs that. And when we when we get them back over here, we have a chance. So I think the two are linked. I love open web close web crossover. Five zero five. Does this mean WordPress will take more control of the admin experience more consistency? I don't really know. And I say that because WordPress is not owned by any single individual. But you will see us sharing everything we learn how to design for people as automatic design in an open source way. Like Ashley shared the inclusive design checklist, that's open available. Everything we do, we want to do in the same network open way. That's right here. Perfect. So this list, this list is available on design.blog slash inclusive. Oh, what's this headline over here? Yesterday, a friend pointing me to this, this, this site, actually this page on courts. It says your company Slack is probably sexist. I thought this was an amazing article. So just Google it later if you haven't who's read this article before who's read it. It's just amazing. But it really kind of like helped me understand certain patterns in Slack and a whole new way and not just for women also for men as well. So just check it out. But it's the fact that a lot of systems and technology weren't designed for people. They were designed for technologists. And this narrow mind in this is meaning that the products themselves are not very good. And so what that means is this room for improvement, which means this room for growth and opportunity. So how are we gonna so how are we gonna like imagine a world where there's better design as area five five five astus now. We're betting and actually mentioned it also Muriel. Muriel is a project that we have launched to create a common vocabulary for how we design on the internet and how we make products more inclusive, how we craft them with different kind of design constraints that involve mobile. And also, how do we make them things that are truly emotional, delightful, but driven by data based decisions versus I think this is a really good idea. I'm going to go do it. Have a hypothesis and have a hypothesis test and go. And Muriel will ideally provide resources that are cathedral like and their prescriptiveness for more people to use. Think of like, you know, Android material design. It's kind of a useful reusable standard. So like that, with more guidance around inclusivity and more relevance to open source and the open web. Okay, we're good. Alright, questions over here. 917. What are some of your ideas for the future of design inclusivity and branding and WordPress? Any specifics with timeline you can share? I thought that if you if you Eric code 917 starting prefix 282, haven't seen Ashley's talk or you're in the other room, please watch that to get a grounding a foundation of where we're headed in terms of a timeline as fast as possible. But as you know, speed doesn't work all the time. So it's going to happen organically. I apologize. This is going to happen overnight. But if it did happen overnight, you'd probably hate me. So it's going to be slow, organic, natural, normal, with a lot of failure along the way, quite frankly. Because when you think about everyone loves SWAT, some managerial sort of like framework, like one of many frameworks. But I like just the strengths and weakness part. And when I think about how we are at craft, we're really great at craft on desktop, and all the browsers, but not great on mobile. Those are very hard problems, mind you. The data side, we have a hard time figuring out who designed for. Yes, two minutes. Yes, thank you. Lastly, an inclusion side, there's all kind of inclusion stuff. And it's really good stuff. And as you dig into it, from an experience perspective, it's so exciting. Because it means unlocking these technologies we use for so many new kinds of people. All right, we have two one minute left. I have questions left over here. Let's see what I was going to, I think I got there almost everything. That's good. That's good. If you're asking what mirror will look like, it will look something like this. Simple graphics to explain different faces of how you design. Because design in the old days was designing icons, picking colors, and things like this. But design is more about a process and a full experience. And once that kind of thinking can enter the WordPress ecosystem, we'll slowly start to see experiences improve for targeted people groups. And once the competency sets in, we'll start that road to positive change, I believe. Okay, I'm on time. I love being on time. Thanks so much for your attention, everybody.


Hello friends, welcome back to the channel. In today's video, we're going to go over how you can get yourself some gift Herbomistica in the Teal Mask Pokemon Scholar and Violet's DLC. So there are a lot of post game side quests you can complete in the Teal Mask once you finish the story mode. And one of the ones that probably a lot of you do want to take advantage of is getting some free gift Herbomistica. There are some prerequisites to doing this, of course, but you really want to essentially come to the Kitikami Hall, which is here on the map. Once you are at the front of the whole entrance, the stair entrance here, you want to turn around and come straight behind you to the edge of the area, and you'll see a picnic set up with two NPC characters. Here is one of the characters here. Want to take a break? He'll give you some sandwich ingredients, but it is this NPC character here to the right. I make chairs that gives you the Herbomistica. Now to get the Herbomistica from this NPC character, you're going to need to have collected all 19 tablecloths. When you speak to this NPC character, you'll start a conversation with you saying any tablecloths you do have, you'll be able to make matching chairs for that tablecloth. Now to get all 19 tablecloths, you're going to need to visit the Picnic Knack stores in and around the Paldaea region. There are three Picnic Knack stores around the Paldaea region. One of them is located in Mesugosa. You can see here on the map where this is located. You're going to be able to collect the lilac, the mint, the peach, the striped, the whimsical, the leafy, and the monstrous tablecloths. They all range in costs from $1,000 to around $2,000. The next place you're going to want to visit is Cascarafa City and you're going to want to visit the Picnic Knacks store in this town where it'll sell a variety of other different Picnic attire and tablecloths to match. You're going to be able to pick up the played tablecloth red, the played tablecloth blue, and the played tablecloth yellow. Also you'll be able to pick up the polka dot tablecloth and the battle tablecloth. Now these are a little bit more expensive ranging from $1,500 polka dollars right up to $4,000 polka dollars, but in Cascarafa you're going to be able to pick up a five additional tablecloths. And the next place you're going to want to visit is La Vincia Town and you're going to want to come to the same store again, Picnic Knacks, and you're going to want to pick up an additional five tablecloths here, which is the yellow, the blue, the pink, the diamond, and the spooky tablecloth, ranging a little bit higher in price from $1,500 polka dollars right up to $5,000 polka dollars. So this will take you up to 17 tablecloths that you've bought from the three stores, including the Academy Tablecloth, which you get automatically when starting the game. You've got 18, you are missing one tablecloth and to get this final tablecloth to get the Herba Mystica, you're going to need to come to Cortondo Town. And you're going to want to head up to the Olive Roll Challenge. You may remember this challenge from when you did the Gym Leader Challenge way back when you did your playthrough, but you're going to have to redo this Olive Roll Challenge to get the final tablecloth to unlock that Herba Mystica gift. Now, this is not a difficult challenge to do, but the key to getting the actual gift from the Olive Roll Challenge is you've got to complete the course with under two minutes and 30 seconds, which can be quite challenging. And to give you some quick tips for this, the first thing you're going to want to do is just run the ball straight ahead of you. You can actually use Corridon or Morridon, your ride Pokemon in this challenge, but for this first part, you just want to walk the ball through to this right area where you can just kind of cut out all of the ramps and bring it round to this side bit. The idea is going to be to bounce the Olive Ball like this with your Corridon up onto this first ramp here. So you're cutting out the two ramps before it and then use your ride Pokemon to just gently nudge the Olive over the top of the ramp. Be careful here because it can kind of fall off the sides and that would mean that you're going to have to start all over again. So you want to just roll it down this way. And then the next step is to walk it up the main ramp. You can try and bounce it into the basket at the back where you need the Olive to kind of end up, but you can just use a walking mechanic here. It gives you a bit more control to walk it up the ramp. And if you just take your time with this, you're not going to have any trouble. Like just don't overdo it. Don't use your ride Pokemon here. You'll flick the ball way too high and it can get a bit sporadic. You can see here, we just push it over the edge and we did it in one minute 37 seconds. So with these tips, you might have some luck in doing it under two minutes 30, which you should be able to do. It is just a little bit tricky, but these little tips hopefully will make it a little bit easier. Once you've done this, you're going to get that 19th final tablecloth that's available in the games, which is the black and white or the B&W tablecloth. And that is the final one that you need. Now, after obtaining all 19 tablecloths in the game, you want to head back to the key to call me whole and speak to the NPC character that makes chairs. He'll go through talking you through the tablecloths. You'll give them every single tablecloth that you've got available. And he'll make the respected chairs to match those tablecloths. You'll see the items will be received as you go through. But on top of this, he will say that now he's got lots of designs to kind of go off. He will give you a bonus gift and a set of herbomisticas.  So it's a pretty nice way to quickly get yourself two herbomisticas very easily with very minimal effort. And I feel like it's a nice little side quest to know about, to go out, especially like I've said, if you are a shiny hunter, you will be able to take full advantage of this little gift that's in the post game of the Teal Mask. So make sure you do take advantage of this.  So that is everything for this very short video today. I hope it has been helpful. If it has, do a drop a like on the video. It really does help.

When you finally succeed The narcissist does this So after all of the work you put in to become the person that you are today Everything you built after all of that All of the suffering you went through All of the trials and tribulations What happens when you finally succeed because remember they were always putting you down They always made you feel like nothing you did was good enough They were never happy with anything you did for them There was always something wrong with it, but they didn't like it So what happens when you do finally succeed? when you achieve their specified standard When you meet their expectations, what do they do then? I'll tell you what they do When you finally succeed They move the goalposts they change What they originally expected from you Then it becomes something else So it really doesn't matter How you succeed or what you do It's not going to change anything no matter what you do. They're never going to be happy. They're never going to be satisfied They will always want more They have these insatiable desires that can never be fulfilled Not with you or anyone else Even if there was a perfect person walking the year To trust and believe that the narcissist would find something wrong with them They can find something wrong with anything Because they're very insecure and they project their insecurities outwards onto other people or things When you finally succeed They're not going to accept it They're not going to accept that you put in the work to Achieve a certain result They're not going to appreciate it. They're not going to congratulate you They're going to say that You cheated you broke the rules somehow They're not going to believe that you Did it the honest way They're going to think that you must have done something wrong And that's the only reason why You could succeed but even then they will Take credit for your success They will steal your ideas They may even steal your money or material possessions Because remember they are very arrogant and entitled They feel deserving of whatever you have And they see it as though you're just this object that exists to serve them and For no other reason other than they just want it If they want something they believe they should have it and there's really nothing you can tell them There's no way that you can get through to them Because they're just not going to see your success in the way that you want them to see it They're not going to look at it as though okay You put in the work to become the person that you are today and that's why they hate and envy you Because they're only looking at the finished product They're not looking at all of the work you put in they don't see that They don't know about all of the suffering that you went through The trials and tribulations The journey they don't see that part of it and that's why When you do finally succeed And they see it or they hear about it It just eats them up inside They can't take it They don't like it because they're not thinking about the work you put in they're just looking at it like So you got it You managed to succeed, but what about me? Even though many of them are lazy They don't want to do the work They're just waiting for you at the finish line so When you cross the finish line, they're just waiting there, but then they're not even celebrating or congratulating you It's just they're expecting a handout so it's like a double blow Not only do they not appreciate you or Congratulate you but on top of that It's the entitlement as well so they don't value anything You do for them or give to them and yet they're still there with their hands out expected it but it really makes no sense when you think about it because Why would they want or need anything from you? If something is wrong with your success, or it's not good enough It doesn't add up But they're nothing they do makes any sense Yeah, you can be sure that when you finally succeed They're gonna move the book the goalpost Suddenly there'll be something else that you have to achieve Something else that you have to do It's never gonna be enough. It's like they tell you to Climb Mount Everest The tallest mountain in the world and it's like you get to one level And then suddenly the clouds start to fade away And then you're looking up like whoa There's another 1,000 feet And then you climb that then there's another 1,000 feet And then you get tired and you stop You just can't do any more and then you look for your binoculars You see the narcissist is standing Right at the bottom of the mountain With their arms folded And they don't look happy because they're expecting more and more, but it's like no matter what you do It's never enough. It's like you could climb Mount Everest and then They want you to climb the moon They'll always come up with something in their heads.  Everything that you've worked hard for because all they've really got is the arrogance and entitlement but those aren't positive qualities They're not contributing anything of value to you But when you finally wake up and you realize that They're not gonna start putting in the work They're not gonna start trying to make things right with you no When you finally realize the game that they've been playing with you all of that time When you wake up and you see you've been getting you've been giving everything away for free To this person Who hasn't been doing anything for you And they've been expected you to do everything When you finally wake up and realize that you know what they'll do They'll ghost you They'll disappear and they'll never come back Because they know at that point you've woken up Realize that you deserve more You're looking back and you see you're so tired after Everything you had to do for them and Maybe your bank account is empty You lost all your money Lost all your time and Yeah, you got nothing back For everything that you invested you got nothing back when you wake up and you see that They're just gonna ghost you they're gonna run away That's the discard They'll devalue you for as long as they can until they've used up everything you've got Well until you finally figure out what they're doing And then I'll have no purpose for you The last thing a narcissist wants is to be around someone who realizes their worth Who realizes the value of what they're given to people and Then expect something in return An equal exchange reciprocation They don't want to be around someone like that They want to be around someone who's stupid Someone who doesn't know their worth or even people who just Aren't really about anything Because then there's less expected from them They don't have to do as much But when you're with a high value person It takes work to be in a relationship with someone like that Narcissists love the benefits they get from being with those types of people But the problem is they don't want to do the work and that's why it doesn't last long so Narcissists in the end they're destined to Either be alone or end up with people who are just like them People who do the same things that they do cheat lie steal Because that's really where they belong In the end they just go back where they belong And as for us We continue to grow We elevate We become bigger and better We become the best versions of ourselves Because we don't mind putting in the work We can recognize our mistakes our flaws and we can do something about it So that we don't make the same mistakes again Really nice beach here But it's came down to see the sunset It's getting quite dark now It's really cold This is actually the first beach I've seen here And I'm quite impressed so far The sounds pretty white But I'm sure there's even better beaches than this. This was just one That's quite nearby. It's a nice peaceful place to come down and see Now I'm getting hungry so I think I'm gonna go get something to eat. I'm still eating vegan food every day I've been a vegan since September 2019 So that's over three years now Takes a lot of dedication But it really pays off in the end. I feel so much better now. I have a lot of more energy My mind is clearer. I still have energy even when I don't get my sleep. I'm still okay So yeah, I highly recommend Becoming a vegan That is something That you've been thinking about Something that you might be interested in Give it a try Even if it's just for a week or two to see how you feel the moon is out The sunset was incredible today. It was huge I've never seen it like that before I'm bright red. I've got my car here Pulled up right by the beach. It's a Korean car Genesis G8 Something different from the usual that I get so if any of you Come to South Korea Give it a try if you're looking for Car to rent. It's pretty cool. It's pretty fast Uncomfortable the entrance is there to the shop go around the back I've never been down here before this little town. All right Just go ahead in this shop now get some stuff Then I'm gonna get something to eat So yeah, thank you all for joining me On this video at the beach Please give it a thumbs up down below if you enjoyed it and I will talk to you in another one very soon


Can I see your hands? Yes? Thank you for being here all night. This is our high school portion of the program today. And we've got the chorus behind me. This first piece is Contate Domino. And it is in Latin. It's a very, very old piece. And it was chosen. I decided to program this piece because the All-State Music Festival chose this as their audition piece. And I just wanted to really have a good sense of where that bar was in that line. And this group all learned it. And they've all risen to that bar. So I'm pleased that we're singing at that level. This is Contate Domino. It's very recently called Plena. It's a Puerto Rican inspiration, inspired by Puerto Rican music. And the composer is Diana Seyes. They have a few featured drummers in the beginning. Ella and Ashley come along for a little bit. One of the interesting playing techniques in Flagglish are the trombones, where the bow moves freely. It includes a variety of sounds from the rhythmic chopping of the bow in the beginning to the plucked cello-accompaniment parts and bow sections, particularly in the violin melody. This will feature Mila soloing as, sorry, Maya soloing as well as Mila and Angus and Avery. This is the high school band. They are so excited to close our evening out. First tune we're going to play is called Fanfare for the 16th Empire. All that many other things that aren't that. But that's what it's called. It's by Randall Sandbridge. And this is what it sounds like. We give a shout out to Sarah Adelands, who's watching the live stream.


Let's talk about how to ink this new release from platinum. I have an update for you. In my last video showing you how to ink your new platinum Curitas fountain pen, there's one thing I did that you shouldn't do. That when you're getting ready to ink your pen right here, I took the spring out when I pulled the pen apart. Don't do that. I suggest not taking that spring out just to leave it where it is. And I have the converter that's included with your fountain pen purchase. Then dip that nib into the ink bottle and pull in your ink with your converter. And then put it back together. You're just always going to look for those little channels so that your pen is sliding in to the right place. And then you put the barrel back on and your pen's ready to go. Perfect click. With the platinum Curitas limited edition matte fountain pens, you have a great new look, a really awesome feel on the exterior finish, and a really smooth nib.

So, as we transition to the next group, seedless vascular, so what really is the difference between the first two? Between the seedless, non-vascular, and seedless vascular, what's the key evolutionary characteristic that's developed in this group? Vascular tissue. Very good. It's still seedless, so they're still reproducing using spores, correct? However, they've developed vascular tissue, so now they have their own transportation vessels. And so, this is where we have to look at the phylum names. I want to make sure that you guys are aware of the changes. So in the past, the two phylum, phylum lycophyta, and the previous name was pterophyta, again, the P.S. silent, so it's pronounced pterophyta. And in the book, in your text, monelophyta is the newly created name. Now what are we going to do, guys? I know I said we'll stick with monelophyta, but just looking at the literature, I think pterophyta is probably the name we want to stick with. There's more literature with still this name for the group as the representative as well as opposed to monelophyta, the newly created phylum division name. So again, let's go with lycophyta and pterophyta as the two phylum names for the seedless vascular plants. In the lab, we saw it as pterophyta as well, correct? And so the examples of these two, in terms of pterophyta, we are talking about what plant? The ferns. The ferns are the representative, just like the mosses were for the first group. The ferns are going to be the representative for the seedless vascular plants because they are more species of ferns than any of the others. The lycophyta, the club mosses are a smaller group, but we'll use the ferns as the representative to talk about, again, means of reproduction, alternation of generation in terms of the life cycle. So in terms of means of reproduction, what structures are they going to be using? Spores. Again, guys, once it's seedless, we're dealing with spores as opposed to seeds. So the first group, the seedless, reproduced by using spores. Second group, seedless vascular, also reproduces by using spores. But now we have the vascular tissue. Alternation of generation. Gametophyte and sporophyte, it alternates. All plant groups do. But if we're talking about the ferns, what's the dominant generation, yes? The sporophyte. We're going to put that in red. So again, folks, if we're talking the seedless vascular, the dominant generation is a sporophyte generation. When we're talking seedless non-vascular, dominant generation gametophyte, very important. So the gametophyte was dominant, now the sporophyte is dominant, and now we're completely on land, no dependency still to really water, because we have the sporophyte generation dominant, and the gametophyte grows independent of the sporophyte as a bisexual gametophyte that has both the male and female structures on the gametophyte generation. If you remember again from lab, we had that heart-shaped gametophyte as a representative of the ferns, yes? And so the male structures would be called again, what? Anthorhidia, female, archegonia, and the fusion of the sperm and egg creates the sporophyte that then grows independent of the gametophyte, and the cycle continues in the seedless vascular. Now as far as the vascular tissue, which has now evolved, and they able to transport materials around the plant, what are the two vascular tissues called? Yes? Fluem, very good. Thank you. So xylem, which conducts water and minerals, okay? Not just water, but water and minerals, obviously from the soil into the root system and up to the leaves where it's needed for photosynthesis. And then the phloem, the next transportation vessel, conducts sugars, we say, and other organic nutrients that are manufactured in the leaves from photosynthesis and transported to other areas of the plants, namely the root system, but there are times that it's stored in the stem as well, modified stems. Okay, so this is the vascular tissue that's evolved that is now going to show up in the seedless vascular plants, and of course the most advanced plants on the planet, the seed vascular plants, or seed plants, the vascular is understood, they normally just call seed plants because the vascular tissue is understood.


Hello, in this lecture we're going to talk about estimating inventory methods, methods such as first in, first out, last in, first out, and the average method. Last time we talked about specific identification when we were selling the inventory of forklifts. We used specific identification, meaning we had an ID number for each particular forklift, and knew exactly which forklift we sold, and the cost of that particular forklift. Reason that makes sense for forklifts is because they're relatively large, they could be distinct in nature, and they have a fairly large dollar amount in comparison to other types of inventory. If we're selling something else like coffee mugs over here, we may have a large amount of coffee mugs, they may be all completely the same, and therefore for us to give them all identification numbers and try to track exactly which mug we sold, and the cost of that particular mug may not be of good use of our time, may be better to use some type of estimating method in that case, being first in, first out, last in, first out, or an average method. So let's compare and contrast those methods briefly, and then we'll go into more detail at a later time. In this example, we're going to say that we purchased inventory in terms of coffee mugs. We're going to buy and sell coffee mugs. In January, we bought this many coffee mugs, like eight or something here, at a dollar. Then in April, we bought another amount of coffee mugs, like five more at 120, point being that the coffee mugs are going up in price, even though they're exactly the same, the cost is going up. That's going to be the typical assumption. All else equal, prices go up. Why? Because of inflation. The value of the dollar goes down. The price could go down as well, if, for example, the glaze or something, a coffee mug became cheaper, that the norm would be that prices go up and then everything would be reversed if prices go down. That's how I like to think of it, at least. Then in July, we purchased another bunch of coffee mugs at $1.50, price going up again. We haven't sold any coffee mugs yet in this particular example. We're stockpiling them, expecting to sell them at some particular point in time. We now have on our balance sheet, $23, which would be this number of coffee mugs times $1 plus this number of coffee mugs times $120 plus this coffee mug times $150. That's the $23 we have on our balance sheet as inventory at this time. We then have a customer asking for a coffee mug. We make our first sale of the coffee mug. We're going to sell them all for $5. That's not the issue here. The issue is how much is the cost of that coffee mug? What's going to be the cost? Is it a dollar? Is it $120? Is it $150? We're not going to use specific identification. I'm not going to say, well, let's see which actual mug was picked here. We're going to first use first in, first out as our first example. In that assumption, and it is just an assumption, we're going to assume that that coffee mug was taken from this area in terms of $1 being the cost rather than $120 rather than $150. This is the most intuitive method for most people to understand because it usually follows what we think of as a normal flow of inventory. We would assume that we would try to sell the oldest types of inventory first, even if they're non-perishable, something like a coffee mug, but it's important to note that this is just an assumption. For example, if we put all the new, all the old coffee mugs up front on the shelf and the new coffee mugs on the back, it is possible for the customer to reach in the back and take the old coffee mug. It's important to note that we are not talking about the actual flow of coffee mugs, although this may mirror what we try to have the actual flow to be, but it is just an estimate. If we have that estimate, then we're going to say that the sales price is $5, so we're going to say we sold it on an account here. We probably would have sold it for cash if it's a coffee mug, but we're going to sell it on an account. $5 going up for accounts to see both sales goes up by that $5. That has nothing to do with our cost. We might have used the cost in order to come up with that $5, but it has nothing to do directly with the cost. What we're tracking now is the inventory being reduced, in this case, by $1 rather than $120 rather than $150 under the first and first out method and the cost of goods sold being the $1. The expenses are going up by $1. We're going to reduce our inventory by that $1. That means that if we look at what's left, we're going to say the inventory was at $23 minus that $1. We now have Indian inventory of the $22 at this point in time under the first in first out method. We could make another assumption, though. We could say, well, why don't we assume under a last in first out method that this particular coffee mug that we sold this first one was taken from the last batch that we bought, the most expensive batch in this case, at the $150. Most people kind of balk at this one because they say, well, that doesn't really make sense. We would try to sell the old ones first. That might be the case, but you can make a reasonable argument to say, hey, if it's just an estimate, I don't know which coffee mugs we sold. It's just as reasonable assumption to say that a coffee mug down here was sold as a coffee mug up here. Why would we want to make that assumption? Well, in terms of rising prices, we'll see that what will happen is that our net income will actually be reduced. So it's possible that this first method came up through taxes of need of desire to have a lower net income. But we'll discuss that later. It's a good example in terms of a difference in methods and how a different method can result in differences on the financial statements and differences in net income. So if we make this assumption, we have the same sale. We're going to say we're going to sell it for $5. The sales price isn't going to be affected by the type of method that we are going to use. But the inventories now are going to go down by $150 rather than the dollar. The cost of goods sold is going to be $150. So the expense is higher, making net income lower. What happens to our balance sheet account? Well, we were at $23 giving us a $21.50 that is left in Indian inventory after the last and first out assumption. The last assumption we can have is going to be somewhere in the middle, and we call that the average. So we can use the average method and we can say, hey, you know what, I don't know which mug we sold. I don't know which, if we sold the dollar mug or the $120, the $150, I'm not going to go in there and figure that out. I'm not going to make an assumption. We're going to say that we sold mugs that cost about $121. It's going to be somewhere in the middle. Now, how do we get that average? It's not going to be adding the 1, the $120, the $150 and dividing by 3. What we would have to do is take the weighted. We'd have to say that we'd have to take this number of cups times 1 plus this number of cups times $120 plus this number of cups times $150 and divide that dollar amount by the number of cups. But we'll talk about that later. What we need to know now is that we can say, whatever we cup we sold, it cost about $121. And if we record that then, same sales price, but now the inventory is going down by $121 and the cost of goods sold will be that $121. What's left on our balance sheet then, we have the inventory at $23. That one cup is now bringing it down to $2179. So the essence of this is that they are estimates. So if we look at just the recap in terms of rising prices, this is how things will always be. If prices go down, you want to flip everything, meaning cost of goods sold under a first and first out was $1. Under last and first out, it's always going to be higher in a period of rising prices when the prices go up as we purchase it. The middle area is going to be the average. So the average is always going to be in between. Then we're going to have the Indian inventory. What's going to be left? We want to know both the income statement side cost to get sold and the balance sheet side. What's left on the balance sheet and what's left under FIFO 22. What's left under LIFO 2150 and what is average is going to be somewhere in the middle. This is what's left on the balance sheet. Then we're going to say net income. What was the impact on net income under FIFO? We had $4 net income under LIFO. We had the smallest amount of net income, $3.50. Under average, we have the amount in the middle at $3.79. You can see that in a period of rising prices, a normal time period, FIFO actually makes us look the best, meaning our net income is the highest and our Indian inventory is the highest. LIFO last and first out will make us look the worst, meaning our net income is the lowest and our Indian inventory is the lowest and the average will always be in the middle. If prices went up, all that would be flip-flop.


Hey guys, this Wilson here. This video is a little bit different from my usual videos I'm talking to you about the number one trait that I see as a Successful entrepreneur a successful business should possess and that thing is communication Communication is key in order for you to build rapport build trust and build connection with your customers And that's what it really takes in order for you to build a successful business Whether it be in a restaurant business small business, whatever the case may be Communication is key and what inspired me to give you this message is because I've been dealing with my insurance broker And which is super super negative experience and in turn I had to fire her and to hire someone that is double the cost So basically what happened is a few months ago. My home insurance is Came up and so that's why I was shopping with my broker on an insurance policy And every time I message her about something she just gives me all these one word response I asked her I asked her for a quote. She doesn't reply me I had to follow up with her and in total I followed up with her more than four times Just to get the quote just to make sure that I have everything in place and that just created so much uncertainty in my mind So much doubt dealing with this professional and in turn I actually found a different broker to deal with my home insurance I didn't even leave it there I was not upset because with a home it's somewhere that I live in it's somewhere that I spend Tens of thousands of dollars buying and purchasing and in turn I hold so truly to me and Having insurance is just protects and gives me that peace of mind and yet this professional is not helping me and just Sending me to run different labs and that's the reason why I contacted their manager I contacted the insurance companies manager in order for me to get a refund and On top of that she does not know that she lost seven other policies I have my policies with many different of my different businesses my rental properties and so on so forth Which I was about to transfer to her because if she gives me good rates, then I'm gonna go with her but in turn Because of her lack of communication She just lost eight different policies and all the commissions involved and on top of that She's in trouble with her manager and it just sucks Another example I want to share with you is that I'm in the process of buying a car for my parents And while I'm purchasing this car with my parents, I got into a really big Dispute with the agents out there because I was purchasing a car from them And they told me that the car would be ready early April and we signed up for everything We signed up for all the paperwork and little did I know that my agent didn't really sign me up for the package That I signed up for and he was taking for granted that I know about all the details So when I called in to to to to confirm the items that I was purchasing the car that package that I was purchasing The person on the other line told me something different and that's the reason why I requested to speak with my sales agent So then I was speaking with the sales agent and he was giving me all these type of attitude because he was like Hey, you know what Wilson? I already gave you such a great deal I told you everything in advance and I explained to him I'm like if you explained everything in advance if there was no confusion whatsoever, and it was super clear I would not have this type of expectation My expectations would be handled and I would really be appreciative of your service And it is because of the fact that you did not communicate with me well enough I did not understand you well enough and that's the reason why I have this concern And all in all I actually had to go up one more level and talk to their general manager to explain the whole situation That all I'm looking for is to understand and to have the right expectation. I wasn't asking for more discounts I wasn't asking for another package or whatever the case may be All I'm asking is for clarification and in turn this agent failed to give me that clarification and in turn He lost himself another business all in all I want to share these two different examples with you of my day-to-day life about even for a brokerage firm, a car dealership, Jaguar, as crazy and as premium as they are They still lack in communication and thus they lost their business Same thing with an insurance company because of their lack of communication They once again lost seven or eight different policies because of the lack of communication Just imagine if you can set the right expectation If you can communicate properly with your customers Does not matter what business or what field or what industry you're in If you're able to communicate well it's not what you say but it's what is received and what is heard And in turn if you can align that, if you can communicate that That's what's going to set you apart from all the different businesses that are failing You're going to be able to have that trait that makes you become a successful entrepreneur Really hope you enjoyed this video. It's just my rant about communication It's something that I truly believe in. I really hope you enjoyed this video Because if you do, I'm going to be making much more of this type of versions for you Make sure you subscribe along the journey. I'll see you guys in the next video


I've already been to class Already been doing a bunch of work this morning. I woke up pretty early got an early start on the day I filmed some clips before I even went to class then I went to my architecture class at 925 got back now I've just been working on some stuff just finished a scholarship application Yes, you can in fact still apply to scholarships even when you're in college And I definitely recommend doing so a lot of scholarships do apply to freshmen or sophomores at college So I'm still trying to get as much money for college as I possibly can so highly recommend you guys do Also, anyways, just finished the edit for one of the community night videos Which should already be up like there's Jake and I performing surgery.

It's kind of rough I know you guys are interested in like what exactly a CSP set looks like you know, I guess So this one has to deal with a diagram comparison You're probably wondering what's a diagram like a diagram is a sequence of two letters So basically we're given like an inputted text in a certain language in this case We have the entire text of pride and prejudice And then basically what we're doing is we're going through and we're getting every sequential two-letter sequence and Putting those into a hash table and counting how many times each specific two-letter sequence appears and then we're taking An example text say like a tweet or like an email or something and we're testing How does this compare against each language, you know, so we don't only have English. We also have like finish. I don't know what that says but basically Comparing how certain pieces of test text compared to different languages. So yeah, it's kind of a lot It's our big like hash table piece that so we'll see how it goes. It's going well so far no major memory errors yet, but We're only a hundred lines in so we'll see where I'm at soon. All right Most of the work is done with Halloween, of course comes hallowoads it is a Wednesday, of course, so So we're rocking the Superman shirt Under the dress shirt.

What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here We're gonna be talking about dune part two in this video here today This will be a spoiler for your view for dune part two Which is directed by Deneva Neve who co-wrote the screenplay along with John Spicer or Spates It is starring Timothy Shalame Zendaya Rebecca Ferguson Josh Brolin Austin Butler Florence Pugh Dave Batista Christopher Walken and several others now this film Of course is the follow-up to the last movie they came out back in 2021 I think this one's supposed to come out last year until the strikes intervene But anyway, this film is revolving around Paul and Paula tradies Who's continuing his journey united with Shanee and the freemen as he seeks revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family and endeavors to prevent a terrible future that only he can predict Now after a streak of turds Minus mean girls because you know, I've been dropping bad review after bad review I am happy to say that dune part two is one of the most amazing superb Breathtaking gripping visually stunning films ever made. It's now the best film. I've seen this year and that's likely not going to change I revisited the last one at least two times in the past six months just to prepare for this film And I will say this is a near perfect sequel that is able to surpass the original in almost every way possible After tragedy struck their family in the last one Paula tradies and his mother Lady Jessica Set out to do two things inform everyone on Arrakis that Paula's the Messiah and to get revenge against those who have wronged them now. I Will say that the weakest aspect of this screenplay still comes down to giving me little to root for when it comes to our characters Not that I'm not on team Paul But he is kept interesting thanks to his significant presence as to prophesize Messiah Shanee his freemen love interest is intriguing just for being his love interest and then a lot of other key figures like the Emperor the Emperor's daughter who I believe was named Eruland Fade Ratha Harkonnen and other newcomers newcomers who only have legs to stand on thanks to strong direction That gives gives them meaning and purpose when they are on screen Outside of that these characters aren't very interesting and if something happens to any of them I won't really care as much as I would like to case in point One deaf towards the end of the film didn't get a single reaction out of me and sort of fell flat because the story didn't do Enough with said character prior to their demise the saving grace for everyone involved in terms of being a character comes down to this Tension that exists between the remaining the tradies Harkonnen's freemen's and the other houses War is inevitable and that keeps the proceedings compelling even if the characters are more than a little thing While Paul lacks the depth that I think he should have as a protagonist his determination strength and resilient traits are enough to keep me invested in his journey I'd say doomed part two screenplay is at its strongest when exploring things of religion Political power and suffering through its characters more specifically when it focuses on the friction that exists between the freemen and Paul When one half believes he's the chosen one and another half are not convinced Those moments of the story are thought-provoking It also excels at finding a suitable balance for all the moving parts to the narrative Lady Jessica spends most of the film spreading the gospel if you will Paul is with still gar shanti and the freemen trying to earn their Acceptance and respect elsewhere We are reintroduced to our villains that we met in the last movie along with newcomers with Austin Butler's fade Ratha Harkonnen stealing the show with so many characters It can become very quick for a story to be bloated Overcrowded and I'm happy to say that doomed part two never feels like any of those previously mentioned words The dialogue feels natural and realistic which helps makes Paul and Shanti's romance Relatable as well as keeping other major events impactful Because a lot of times in these movies these days you get this dialogue that really takes you out of the experience And I don't have any of that when I'm watching Dune 2 as mentioned the new villain this Harkonnen Fade Ratha is a great newcomer in regards to his usage and the menacing presence He brings went on screen the story is constantly highlighting Paul's fighting abilities and fades abilities Keeping us as the viewer eager for the obvious setup for these two to face off But then the fight comes and I will say it's quite underwhelming sadly still how the story keeps you on edge and Anticipation is nothing short of brilliant Han Zimmer score remains godly and powerful feeling every other frame with intensity Joy urgency sadness or whatever emotion is attempting to be conveyed at the time on your screen Zimmer's masterful work makes Dune part two epic and amplifies the sakes of this sci-fi story Denis Villeneuve's direction is impeccable Especially when considering how Timothy Shalameh becomes this more than convincing chosen one that just oozes with nothing but confidence Towards the end of the film commanding your attention at almost every turn when addressing his congregation Zendaya impressed me and of course Rebecca Ferguson can do no wrong But I'd like to point the finger back at Austin once again Austin Butler was more than terrifying Or was more terrifying than any horror film any new horror film that I've watched this year His demeanor facial expressions and the makeup just made Faye Ratha a force to be reckoned with and Austin Butler Deserves all the attention he gets for the work he put into this role, which again is a testament to how strongly directed this film is The Nev net he nailed those action sequences in comparison to the first film This movie just is again raising the stakes I definitely see what people mean when they say there's bigger They have an overall bigger scope to it Everything is just bigger especially these action sequences which are filled with intensity suspense tension and he's really capable of just creating an atmosphere that is very immersive Easy to get connected to everything that's happening even again if the characters are thin like I mentioned the character works I still think needs to be worked on in that third film that we inevitably are going to get because I think they're a little too thin But despite all of that because he's such a phenomenal director The overall experience is able to still keep you engaged because of the performances the overall nature of it being suspenseful very tension based and The lump in my throat that I just had while watching this movie. It's like the weight of the world I felt that on my shoulders while watching the movie from start to finish I've never watched a movie this year so far besides this that just made me feel so Emotional at every turn there genuinely was a few times where I was watching it that tears were starting to build in my eyes because I was just so impressed at how Tremendous this movie is it's a well crafted technically sound movie It is phenomenal in every way shape or form from a technical perspective I have to give it its props there. The pacing was fine. I didn't think the movie dragged by any means The runtime seemingly flew by so it have solid pacing. I would say All in all doing part two is better than the last one I would have to give this movie a solid nine out of ten from being quite honest It is that damn good Like I said before the strong the weakest aspect just comes down to the character work And how I really just think they need to work on giving me a little bit more to grasp on to as to why I should be rooting for these People they all have likeable qualities to them outside of our villains of course, but you get me Let me know what you guys think about all of this down in the comment section below if Henry of course Make sure you subscribe turn on post notification in this video in the description. I have links on social media accounts I'm on Facebook Twitter and Instagram you can message me there to let me know Movies news or reviews like me to cover in the future and with all that in mind guys. I will see you in the next video


quickly slipping away. We've got less than two weeks for the official end of summer and that doesn't leave me a whole lot of time to find a few more photographs. What I'm looking for in this last remaining time is transition photos. Something that gives a hint that summer is coming to an end and another season is trying to take over. That could be leaves changing, leaves on the ground, maybe changing the weather. I'm really hoping that we get at least one rain before the end of summer. It's been a very hot, dry summer this year. It hasn't rained a single day on this project and I'd love to see a little bit of water. That would be really nice but you know, you only get what you can get. The weather is going to do what it wants to do so if we don't get the rain, that's just how it is. You may notice I'm in different footwear. My days in walking up and down the creek and sandals are done for a while. I commented earlier in the comment section on one of my videos that I have got a stress fracture from my foot slipping into some rocks and it's been pretty painful and it hasn't been healing. If I step wrong it makes my eyes water pretty good. It really burns. So I'm going to be wearing the boots from here on out for the next couple of weeks anyway just to give me a little extra protection, a little more support. It's not to the point where I can't function. It's just pretty painful if I step wrong and I feel that if I walk a lot at the end of the day it really hurts and in the morning when I get up it's quite painful. So from here out you probably won't see me doing a lot of creek walking and a whole lot of jumping from rock to rock kind of thing. I'm going to be pretty deliberate on what I step on and where I step. Well I'm going to try to be. So today I thought we talked a little bit about what's next. The printing of the zine. Who I have printed and a little bit about the software I use to lay out the zine. Now I've only used one company to do all my printing for the zines I've done. This will be my sixth zine and that company is Blurb. I'm sure you've probably heard of them. Probably one of the bigger printing on the man printing companies out there. The reason I stay with them is I think the product I'm getting is pretty consistent. The printing is at a high enough level that I'm happy with it. The cost per unit isn't too bad before you get I think. Plus they also handle the distribution so I can put together a zine and someone can order them from my Blurb store and they handle the shipping and the printing all that. Which is really valuable to me. So that's really basically why I stay with Blurb. I haven't found a reason to shop around for other other printers. This is not a paid sponsorship by Blurb. They have no idea who I am. This is just a company that I've been using for a while. I'm not endorsing them as far as that goes. I don't have a lot of bad stuff to say about them because they've been working pretty good for me. It doesn't really matter who you if you've got somebody you really like you should continue to work with them. It's just who I ended up using at the beginning and I found no reason to look for other places to have my zines printed. I'm not going to go through too many of the specifics. If you want to research the cost of per page and that kind of thing just go to their website and you can find all that they offer. They do books and magazine. They do different grades of paper different sizes. I just use the magazine format because that's kind of what this is. Basically it's just a magazine. But I think the paper stock is pretty good quality. Like I said before I think the printing is is good for what I'm doing. Let's talk a little bit about the software I'm using to lay the scene out. What I use is Book Write. It's what I downloaded from Blurbsite. It's really easy to use. It works well on my Mac. I do believe that they let you use other page layout software. I don't have any and I'm not going to spend a ton of money on that kind of software. It's not something I would use enough to warrant the cost. And I'm finding that this Book Write software is very functional for what I'm doing. I'm going to insert a little bit about the software and how to use it, how I'm using it right here. And I'll catch up with you on the other side. So I thought we'd take a look at this Book Write page layout software. It's very simple. You can download this from Blurbs website. What I've done is I've started a new project and now I'm to the point where I want to add some photos to the project. So let's add a few photos. So now we have some photos loaded up. Let's start with the cover. What I want to do is wrap around cover. So the image that I picked for this zine, and so far it seems to be the image that I'm probably going to use unless something else happens in the last week, this is going to be the zine cover. And I'm not going to go too much into it, kind of get an idea of what this is going to look like. Now it's going to give you a little warning sign because we're going outside the borders, but that's okay. We'll be ignoring that. But this will be the cover shot, the cover image, and this will of course be the back. Let's go over to the pages. Let's just drop a photo in here. I'm going to put a vertical shot in here and you want to try to keep it, or I want to try to keep it inside the purple areas. If I want to make sure that everything is printed from this image, and it will give you like the center line, if I want to center it, which I probably won't for this one, I might leave a little more room on the bottom. I might want this page to be black instead of white. Right now it's set up to be white. To do that you take the paint can here and you pick black and you can have a black background. And for black and white images, this does seem to work pretty well and I use it quite often. I haven't decided if this scene is going to be white or black or a mixture of both. I'll kind of have to play with it. One thing that I do though, for either if it's white or black, is I put a border on the image. Right now it says there's no border, so I'm going to pick the border style and then the color. If it's a black background I'm going to want a white border, at least that's what I want. And I think that looks pretty good. I just think it looks more polished if you've got the border. Pages two and three. That could be two separate photos. It could be a number of photos. It could be a lead shot, like a dominant photo with a couple detail shots. There's a lot of ways to approach that. And until I start actually sitting down and laying out the pages, I'm not going to know for sure how I'm going to be laying this out. This is a good example of a photo that wouldn't work as a full page completely crossed because the main feature is right in the middle and you don't want anything important to be too close to the center of this. So when I use this image it's going to have to be more of a three-quarter page set up or it becomes something smaller. Maybe I'll use it something like this and then put a maybe a detail shot down here, a couple detail shots. Or I slide it down and it becomes a lead shot and I still think that's too close to the center. Maybe we do something like this. I've got a few vertical shots that I can use. I'm doing this on my laptop so it's a little a little clunky right now because I don't have a mouse plugged in. But I could put maybe a vertical shot next to it. It's kind of like a detail. And we can also turn this page black. We can put a border on on the image. Use the color. We can do the same for this photo. Give it a border. Change the color. It's all pretty simple and you just kind of have to play with it. This zine can be expanded easily. Right now it's set up for 20 pages but you can add easily add more pages.  They give you 20 to start at a set price and then you can add more if you need to. This will allow you to upload the the project when you're done just by hitting the upload button. It's everything's very well integrated. I think that's another reason I stay with Blurb. This is just a quick look at Blurb's BookWrite page layout software. Just to give you an idea how simple it is to use. How easy it is to create your own book or zine or magazine. So let's rejoin me out making photos. A good example of using what I got. They might look pretty cool wet but that dustiness kind of tells more of a story. More of a summer story and it says a little bit more about where these roots are located. I have no idea if this is going to actually be an interesting photograph. Definitely not going to be a beautiful photograph. I don't think most people's idea of beauty is a bunch of roots sticking up out of trail but it still might be interesting and that's that's a good enough reason to make the photograph. I know I said I was going to stay out of the creek but I came across this section of creek that I haven't photographed and there's some logs across it. I'm going to add some depth. Maybe add a little interest. So I'm going to try to walk down here and see if there's an image to be made.  These boots are waterproof or it's supposed to be anyway. I spent a lot of money on these boots so we'll test that waterproof. We'll see how waterproof they are. I really like the way these leaves kind of mirror each other. One leaf is upside down. One leaf is facing up. I like how they are lighter color than the background so they should really pop. This is actually one of those transition photos that I was looking for. Something that hints to a coming season. Some of these leaves are coming off the trees now. I don't know if that's just because it's been so hot and dry or if it's because autumn is getting close. I think I'm going to end today's video right here in this wonderful setting that I've actually never been in before. Hopefully I've got some useful shots. I think I've made a few compositions that I think have potential. Fingers crossed I'll have enough interesting photos for this zine. You'll see me out here at least one more time.  I'm feeling pretty good about it. Starting to see a little bit of transition. Starting to look like summer. Starting to come to an end. So until next time, thanks for coming along for the ride.
