I distinctly remember this conversation we had really towards the end where you said I think I want to end the friendship But I want to continue the business and I said to you you wanted the opposite I don't want to do business with you, but I want to be friends I know we literally were that's how much we were like not on the same page and that's where I also felt like Yeah, like that's we really lost our friendship. Hi there lovers and friends This is a very special video to me in short It's about two ex-best friends and ex-business partners who haven't talked at all for the past five years Not a tweet not a like sitting across from each other in two round green chairs and really talking for the first time in five Years when I had my partnership opportunity with Squarespace We were talking about how much it really is about rebuilding rebranding Rejuvenating and the videos that I created around my Squarespace partnership. I wanted to really reflect that same theme So when I was brainstorming ideas reaching out to Andrea seemed like the perfect fit because I think our Relationship was really in need of a read. So before we get into that conversation in depth I want to talk a bit more about Squarespace This video is sponsored by Squarespace whether you need a domain website or online store make it fast and make it look stunning with Squarespace So I met Shannon when I was Nine or ten around that age at this thing called girl guys, which is like the equivalent to Girl scouts in the US That's where we met but I don't I can't remember us like really knowing each other at that time but I remember like knowing seeing her and her sister and then we really got to know each other again in High school and when we first started out in high school There was like a group of 40 of us that we referred to as the bad gals Nonetheless like a few years later when people started to change schools life happened And then it was really just me and Andrea and that's when we formed those girls are wild We really were wild, but we made wild into our own thing like for us It was like a girl who was comfortable being herself She was career motivated But she was still young and she was still fun and she was still figuring herself out at the exact same time she didn't take herself too seriously and that was what the the like the the epitome of being a wild girl was and And I think that was what was fun about those girls are wild is that other people thought it was funny But I think in reality Shannon and I were just more focused on making each other laugh Those girls are wild in its heyday was just like a complete 360 reflection of everything I loved at the time including Andrea and my friendship with her which really was like the center and the heart of the blog Well, it was it was fun. I love those girls are wild. I still do. Okay. Why did we? What happened with the fallout? Okay, so when I I mean on my end mind you when I think about it I remember Having a few like Moments with between each other where I just was unhappy and I don't think either of us had ever like properly expressed Our discomfort or unhappiness. I think we just kind of like balled these things in and then Truly what made me be like oh Was our second pilot so we had done two pilots which to me when I look back on it is kind of like really showing a mix of things how Like different our career goals had gotten but also how much we were still like trying our best to mold them together But that was the thing I think our friendship Becomes so wrapped up in those girls are wild that it was hard for us to just express to each other as friends What that like to remove that pressure and so I remember after doing the second pilot or the third part of You know third filming I just felt so unhappy like really really really like oh, no, I did not enjoy any of that and Especially for me like growing up as an actress being an actress those like being on set is like my Comfort zone. That's like my genuine like oh, I feel my happiest in any on set scenario and I remember feeling really like oh Did not enjoy any of that my boyfriend at the time He was like what kind of was my like confirmation because he was like I didn't like that Like I did not like any of it and I was like me either and I don't want to do that ever again and in those days I really didn't know like how to Be like just speak about something it was very cut and dry It was like if that's something I don't like I'm never doing it again And that's just that like because we never had those discussions We just never we never had conflict and there's always a gift and a curse to that like I've even been in relationships Like that we like never argue and at some point like we never argue and then it's like but it's coming and When we do we'll probably never talk to each other ever again because it's just too big and at that time Yeah, I felt I think just genuinely lost as to what to do and I think in reality I probably needed more of like a break, but it just was a very like This is it Shannon. I don't want to do this ever again. I'm super unclear mostly about that time like I know I remember one definitive conversation that we had where I think for me the Frustration I guess was not finding a way for us to equally distribute the work and I remember They're just not being on my end Enough empathy for the relationship that you had that was a serious adult relationship but around that time I know we had started selling the hats and I felt like that was put all on me to do and And my perspective of it was that you just took it off right in react Like that's how it felt if I like Shannon was just like I would do all of this But you had moved to New York like as almost as soon as the hats came Yeah, I think that was also part of it too of like the mistake that I made that I didn't clock of I wanted a friendship That wasn't based on the business, but I based our friendship on the business So your relationship was inconvenient because I'm like we have these hats to ship. You're with this guy You're not helping me. We have this pilot. You're not helping me and I'm like but she's in a relationship with someone That's new who's lived in a different country altogether There's a different set of work and time that that's gonna take to foster and to grow and instead of like being happy for that I like channeled it through the business and how it wasn't functional for the business rather than being happy for my friend So I was like part of the problem that I didn't want in The first place, you know It's weird. I guess when I can look back at even my own relationship at the time is I used to look at him Like as if I used I used to look at you as like this person that I had who was like a lot of things for me And then like he replaced you like so that's why also Sadly it was also easier to be like I don't need to be friends with Shannon anymore because she's stressing me out And I can just move on here to this person because He literally became like all the things especially like tech tech wise and like all these little things He literally became this person. I actually in my mind used to literally think of it Which is so weird because it's like you weren't you were my friend Literally talking about this person like they became now my like safe blanket. And so Yeah, and I needed like I like needed him. I needed I think I needed almost the same thing in the sense of like I needed Change Very much like I didn't feel like a lot was working out for me And so when he came he became like this this like really good Saviour for me. And so I I literally like clung to the whole hope of it I used to truly believe like that I was like, okay, maybe God just wants me to put all my eggs in this basket I also think that kind of the byproduct of a slow breakup is The people who are on either side like my friends and my family closest to me who were around like when things started to get Really weird. They're only hearing the weird stories. Yeah, nobody here's and so they're starting to like feed into the negativity for you or you lose trust for that person and Everybody around you also is reinforcing.  So it yeah, it was the easily the biggest breakup that I've experienced and Truly that I have experienced I use it for all kinds of examples I Think the biggest lesson that I learned was you don't actually know why I think a lot of the times with you I wasn't asking genuine questions So if I felt like I was overwhelmed with work, I wasn't like what's going on with you in your world You know, how how are you managing and balance on your own end? I think I was just making a bunch of assumptions that just weren't based in reality and It really wasn't until we stopped being friends you started making channel videos in your own channel I started to learn more about what you were going through mentally at that time and even health-wise. I didn't know The health challenges that you were going through I think until very very later in the game And so that made me question. What kind of friend I was really Making myself available to be if I was best friends with somebody who didn't feel comfortable saying This is where I'm hurting and how I'm hurting and I Cuz I didn't know those things and I didn't ask in the right way. I was making assumptions on your character That just were completely not based on the truth so I would probably say the biggest lesson that I learned is if you love somebody then Love them enough to give them blank pages to give them space to be not what you expect and for you not to have All the answers even if you've known someone for because I've known you since I was 20 years I've probably known you in total so I've known you for so long So I think I just stopped giving you blank pages of like oh there's stuff about her I don't know there's things that she's going through that I have I actually am not connected to and It wasn't until years later when I started to look back It was like things started to make sense because I started to get to know you in a way that at the time I just didn't make myself available to but then also I'll say this because it's like I Openly talk about depression all the time, but I don't always express it to people and I'd like have had a very like very recent moment earlier in the year where it was like one of my friends was being directly affected by my depression and In the past she actually never had to see it like not for real so She was making a lot of assumptions and I just got really mad and I was like in reality You don't realize this but we've been friends for so long and it's like it's you don't get to see me when I don't want to Talk to people so you I communicate with you kind of always so you never get to see me on my darkest and my saddest And so this is why it's easy for you to make all these assumptions But I said it made me realize you don't know anything about mental health And you don't much to have much patience on it because it's quick to be like Something's wrong with you. You're not talking to me. It's easy for people. I find to I You're mad at me. I'm gonna be mad at you, right?   It's like, yeah There's certain things as certain friends aren't noticing but then also it's like yeah for whatever reason you're not comfortable to speak about it It doesn't always directly mean that person is Not a comfortable person to speak with sometimes it is just you and you don't know how to voice these things But that's the thing. I think you and I were really legitimately getting to almost like the adult phase of our friendship Neither of us knew what to do with it Yeah, it was just overall a very very weird year and I was really alone and very Okay with being alone. It was like a big thing for for my boy my ex at the time. I'd like and I of like Socializing like going out and being friends with people and I did not want to do it at all like no parts of me I was like I'm fine. I'm fine in here like and he thought it was so weird And so it's like yeah, maybe that was my Like dealing with our breakup in general. It was like I almost didn't want to be close with anybody I was like, I'm cool. I can stay in this house. I have you. I'm perfectly fine, but I'm trying to think really What I would want you to know During this time during that time at least or even after Honestly still to this day. I had tremendous guilt like very very very very guilty because I really knew I felt like I genuinely knew you I also like really knew your personality type and that like You know, you just you didn't really make friends with people like that and not because it was like you were just so crazy You didn't want a friend, but it's like that was your choice Like I was your real friend like that was like this is my friend And so even all of our little outsider people were just like that like outsider people but in reality it was like we were like this unit and So I think in in breaking up with you I also knew the weight of that of like That like this will be hard on Shannon There's no doubt in my mind that this is gonna be hard on her so I used to have a lot of a lot of guilt and Yeah, overall which is also what was a part of even when I would see you and maybe not say anything was it was because I used to think about it for more like myself and like seeing In him and when he would say Hi, it would almost piss me off the casualness of it Huh, like, you know, this is not casual. This is can't be casual like I can't see you somewhere You're just like hello like I actually really appreciated the non speaking to each other at events though Because I do agree that like I wouldn't have benefited from the like Not at all. I mean not for I mean, I wouldn't that's the thing I as I wouldn't like that So that's really the reason I'm like I would have been pissed if somebody was doing that to me I'd be like, why are you doing this? What like it's too because it's too loaded. There's too much in the friendship in the scenario and Like the few times that people in my life might have been like you and Shannon should make up You and Shannon should be friends and I would be like no like because the work of it Used to feel overwhelming. I remember what was weird about the dinner in particular Which context wise the time that we met up before we saw each other this dinner that was like this big YouTube thing And I'm with like two of my friends.  Oh, that's my ex feels like a less like But it is it's very weird for somebody who is one of your best friends to think of You have this scenario where that person was your best friend like for them I'm like, I wonder what that feels like equivalent of saying my ex-husband is here and your friend not knowing you were ever married I feel like that's how much of like a big It just requires so much explanation. Yeah, no, I know that you know what I also realized too is how many people Don't know that we know each other I'll be honest. Even once I had sent you that email I was like free I was like and I'm done like I felt just like weight lifted off and I thought that was the best place for me to be in to be honest is to have a conversation with you and not have any Expectation because it's not about that. It's like it's about like removing all the negative all the negativity and all the like the Things that you thought and the expectations all that kind of stuff. So now I was it was more like Where one of my close friends was like, okay, well, what are you hoping is gonna happen here? I was like Nothing, I don't have anything. I was like that Shannon feels better. Like, you know that that that would probably be the most versus worrying about Like okay, are they best friends again? Are they back to normal again? Like in reality It's like you just want to be cool with this person and be like normal like that's all that you're expecting the story I told you of Having people from my past who we had something before Expect to pick something back up with me like years later and for me to accommodate them in LA or accommodate them Or when I come home like making time for them where for me my home time is really about my family and like the guilt I feel from not being around my niece and nephew my mom and my dad. So I Did not want to put that kind of pressure on a friendship that already was On grudges still of this has to be anything because it doesn't you know Just because we were very close at one time doesn't mean that we have to continue that or doesn't mean that we have to Don't continue that it just it just means that what you gave me then was enough the friendship that we had at the time Was enough like all that I experienced with you like even I am so grateful that you even chose me to do a blog with I was like a nobody kids had nothing like you were this massive celebrity who had like a big following And so I was so grateful for what you provided for the friendship for the laughs for the good times Like I get all these video archives So I felt like you didn't owe me anything and I feel like we don't owe each other anything And I think getting to a place of respect and mutuality is just a really nice place to be How does it wrap up? It doesn't wrap up I Think of that You know that girl let's bring it back to girl guides You know the song is make new friends, but keep the old so surprised. You know this one is silver The circles round it has no end That's how long I want to be Oh Thoroughly impressed with the fact that you even have that just like to pull out. Did you look at that up?

Being a good shooter and a good goal scorer are two totally different things. In this video I will teach you how to improve your finishing and confidence in front of goal. Before I show you some on-field examples, you should understand that goal scoring starts with your mind and your movement. Every time you step on the field have the desire to score regardless of your position. You want to score goals. You are going to put yourself in those situations where you can score and when you get your chances you are going to finish them. Obviously a striker will get more chances than a fullback in a match, but whatever your position have the need and want to score goals.  Always aim higher and expect more. How many goals did you score last year? This year you're going to beat that number. Good goal scorers are greedy.  If your teammate is wide open waiting for a tap in at the back post, give him the ball. However, if you get space in and around the box and you know you should shoot, take the shot. Don't pass up on shooting and goal scoring opportunities. You will always regret it. If you do miss a chance, shake it off and immediately go searching for the next goal scoring opportunity. Dwelling on a missed chance or stressing over the past will not help you score more goals in the future. Get over your mistake, learn from it and go searching for more goals. Great goal scorers are consistently in the right spot at the right time. In the defending tutorial we talked about reading and anticipating the play rather than reacting. You want to think about doing the same thing when you're attacking especially when it comes to scoring goals. You want to anticipate where your teammate is going to put the ball and you need to get there at the right time. You want to anticipate that maybe defenders are going to screw up and make mistakes. So instead of always reacting to what happens, you want to anticipate where the ball is going to be.

Scoring goals isn't so much about technique. It's about being in the right spot at the right time. Your movement is extremely important when it comes to scoring goals. Now you don't have to be the fastest player. You don't have to have blistering pace, but you do need to be quick and sharp with your movement. So first of all, get light on your toes. Be ready to react and anticipate that there's an opportunity coming. When the time is there to attack the ball, you need to be quick and sharp with your movement. If you're flat-footed, waiting for the ball to come to you, you're not going to score many goals. But if you're quick on your feet, you're quicker to think than the defender, you're quicker to move than the defender, you're going to get on the end of crosses, you're going to find open space to get off shots and you're going to be scoring more goals more frequently. So think about your anticipation, gambling on misplaced passes, gambling on defenders making mistakes, anticipating where your teammates are going to put the ball and getting there at the right time. And then focus on the sharpness and quickness of your movement. If you're flat-footed, standing, waiting for the ball, it's not going to get to you.  I want to talk to you about creating space to get your shots off and thinking a little quicker around the top of the box and in good goal scoring areas. So number one, if you receive the ball, just go back a little bit for me, if you receive the ball and you have space around the top of the box, you don't have to beat the defender, okay? You can just turn and get the shot off. So if he's not going to close me down, don't feel like, okay, there's a defender, I have to get past him or I have to do a move in order to get my shot off. If there's space, do not hesitate to take your shots early. Now saying that if he comes a bit closer to me, he's not giving me space to get my shot off, I have to be a little more creative. I have to create space for myself and I can do that in two ways. So go back a bit, just make sure in here.  So if that ball is coming in, I can push off him and turn on him like this.

Now I have space and I can either go right or left and now I'm in control, okay? If he's going to stay tight to me, so again I'll try to make a bit of space, but if he's strong, he's not letting me any.  Let's show an example. Okay, so if I'm receiving this my first touch, now he's already pushing me back, I'm losing my momentum. So you need to think a little bit quicker, play that ball in. I want to think about either first touch turning, okay, or obviously you can turn the other way. Okay, but making a little bit of space with your first touch, okay? So you need to think a bit quicker and think, can I put my first touch into space to get a shot off? Now let's talk about when I get turned on him, let's say I'm facing him, so say I made a bit of space or I received it into space. Okay, don't feel like you have to do so many moves, special moves to get past him. If I can just put it to one side and hit the ball, just quickly shift it out of your feet and hit it. Okay, now saying that if he's going to stay with me, so again, sorry, say I'm turned, give me a bit of space. Say that I'm turned and I do try to shift it quickly. Okay, and he stays, it's a great idea to do a fake shot, something like that. Okay, so when you're in these situations, think about being direct, if he gives you space, take the space, take the shot on. If he's really tight to you, think about creating a bit of space, either with your body pushing him away or your first touch into space quickly, when you are faced to him, hit the ball one more time. When you are faced to him, all it takes sometimes is just a quick shift and get your shot off. If he does stay with you and you need a little bit more space, fake shot to create some more space for yourself. I want to talk about composure in the box, because sometimes you'll get really good chances. You'll find yourself in front of the keeper with tons of time, well maybe not tons of time, but a really good opportunity to score and we usually rush ourselves. We snatch at the opportunity and we start to panic, we start to think about everything that's possibly going to go wrong, missing the net, everyone yelling at us and we just rush our decisions. So play that ball into me. Okay, so what happens usually is we'll get the ball in some space like this, great opportunity one on one against the keeper and like I said, you start to panic and instead of just being calm and composed and tucking it away, making it nice and easy on yourself, we try to blast it as hard as we can and end up skying it over the net from point blank range. Okay, so when you're in these areas, it's so important that you stay calm with your thought process. Yes, you want to be quick, you want to be sharp with your movement, sharp with your finish, but it starts right here, you have to stay calm and say, just tuck it away. Okay, so play that ball in. It's just open up and then pass it in the corner with a bit of pace. Okay, you still want to hit it hard, you want to get it past the keeper, but just think about making a really strong pass into the corner. Play me one more.

Okay, if you get a bit of time, just take it and pass it away. Play an awkward one to me, maybe into my chest and put it down. Put it down into the ground, keep it on net, just be really calm and composed, but think about getting it on target, making it simple on yourself, just passing it into the corner. Let's talk about your decision making when you're in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper. So first of all, play my ball. First of all, when you're in this situation, you have to be positive. You have to think, yes, this is a goal I'm going to score right now. Okay, a lot of us get in this situation and we're like, I don't know what to do and it's hesitation and he gets too close, he cuts down our angles and we make it easier on him. Okay, so what I want you to think in your mind is think, yes, this is a goal. Focus on the finishing, don't think about anything negative, don't think about the goalkeeper is going to save it. Don't think about it. I don't know what to do.  I want to give you three options when you're in this situation. Okay, so when you're here, yeah, if you really want, you can blast it as hard as you want, but that's not really going to increase your chances of scoring in these one-on-one situations. So first, what I want you to think about is just passing it into a corner. Okay, so when I come in here, if he's giving me a little angle, if I can see space in one of the corners, I want to pass it there. So remember in the passing tutorial playing the ball when we talked about the shape of your pass. Okay, so if I'm shaping my pass this way with inside curl and I'm trying to put it to that corner, that's pretty easy for him to save as opposed to if I'm shaping it here, so it's almost going outside of the post and I'm putting it into that corner. That's going to increase my chances of scoring that type of finish. Okay, same thing goes if you want to use the outside of your foot. Okay, so if I wanted to use the outside if I'm going that way, that's easy for him to save if he's ready. Okay, so instead, if I wanted to go there with my left foot, I would probably use the outside of my left or I could use the inside of my left or I could use the outside of my right. Here, if I want to go to this side, yes, I could use the outside of my right into that corner or I could use the outside of my left, something like that. So think about the shape of your finish, like we did in the passing tutorial, to increase your chances of scoring that type of finish. The next type of finish I want to think about in this situation is when you're trying to create an angle, but he's coming out and it's a little too tight and he's going down to the ground and you're going to do something like that, go over him. Okay, so he's going to come out with real intensity, he's trying to slide you, try to take you out. Okay, he's coming out and when he gets too close, that's when I want to go over. I almost want to fake like it's a shot, fake like I'm going to almost like blast it at him or try to put it under him, play the ball. Okay, so it's like I'm here and I'm getting him to commit to the shot and then I'm flicking it over him. Okay, that's a really good finish in a one-on-one situations. The last thing I want to talk about is going around the keeper. So play the ball. So say I receive it, I'm running at pace, he's running out to meet me. Again, it's just a touch away and pass it into the back of the net. Okay, so you're going to have to get your timing right. If I do it too late, play him again. So if I hesitate in this position and I do it too late, he's going to win the ball like that. So I want to do it a bit early and again, like the fake shot on the chip.  You want to try to get him to go down to ground early so you can touch it around him and finish the goal. So those are three ideas to think about when you're in a one-on-one situation with the keeper. Two helpful tips for finishing from crosses. First of all, get light on your toes and be ready to move. Next, you want to pick up the flight of the ball and move towards it. Now, sometimes you don't always have this option, sometimes you just have to get on the end of the cross. But whenever possible, you want to think about attacking the ball. Do not let the ball come to you, otherwise it's just going to get intercepted. When making contact, you really want to focus on just getting the ball on target and you will do this by pushing your follow-through towards the goal. So after you make contact with the ball, look at your foot. Is it faced towards the goal or is it going off to the left or to the right? Also think about your body positioning. After you make contact with your shot, look at your chest, your torso, your hips. Are they faced towards the goal or are they going to the left or to the right? And finally, think about getting over the ball.

How many times has a nice easy pass come across the face of goal and you or someone else has managed to put it over the net from point blank range?  It's better to put it into the ground than to go over the net. And you do not have to blast or hit these shots hard. The more pace the cross comes in with, the less power you need to generate. You simply need to focus on redirecting it onto target with good contact. So really focus on having a nice firm, flexed foot.  I want to give you a few tips on penalties because if you can be a confident penalty taker, you're going to increase your goal tally instantly. So number one, you want to take the penalty. As soon as the foul is committed, you're the guy who steps up and says, yes, I am confident, I am going to score this thing. When everyone else is looking around saying who's going to take it, you're coming to get the ball. Okay. So number one, you have to want to take it and two, believe that you can actually score. So when you put that ball down on the spot in your mind, you're not thinking about missing. You're not thinking about everyone being upset. You're thinking about being confident. You're thinking, this is a goal. This is another goal on my stats. This is another goal that's going to help my team win. Okay. Everything that you're thinking is about putting the ball in the net. I don't feel like I'm too centered. We'll go like that. Okay. So traditionally, if people tell you come up, pick your spot, know where you're going to go, hit it there with pace, hit it there with purpose. Okay. So if I'm approaching the penalty and I want to hit it, don't miss the net like that. And that's the only problem I have with that. I hit a good shot, but it was a bit too hard. Now personally, I've gone through that. I've hit good penalties and I've hit too many posts more than I would like. So what I've done started to do is I take a different approach to penalties. Okay. I set up like I'm going to do the exact same thing. So I set up like I'm going to whip it into the top corner or whip it into the bottom corner and I'll come back like I'm going to do a big run up and I'll start sprinting at the ball. If you want 12 weeks of in-depth coaching covering every area of player development, daily follow along training routines to improve your skills, fitness and confidence, 12 weeks of professional match analysis and access to every advanced course I've created in the past, check out the link in the description below. But then at this second, I'm right before I hit it, I look up and I see what the keeper is going to do. And if I see that he went to that side, just a little bit, if he just took one step, then I'm just going to calmly pass it in the other corner. So I want you to be cautious when you're taking this advice.  So don't hesitate. Again, put the ball down.  And then I see that his body position went a little bit that way. So I just put it in the other corner. So number one, confidence. You want to take the penalty. You want to score the goal. Number two, everything going in your mind is saying positive things about, yes, this is going in the net. I'm going to score. I'm going to win this game for my team. The next thing is your choice. So I want you to do whatever is comfortable for you. I choose what's comfortable for me, but you need to do what's best for you. And like I said, I've hit a lot of penalties in my day. We'll go again. Ready? And you can take that approach, hit a nice hard penalty into either corner. If that works for you, then that's what I want you to do. However, for me personally, I've hit too many posts. I've missed the net a couple of times where I've hit a really hard shot, but the keeper made a great save. And I feel taking this new approach by looking at the keeper and reacting to what he does. I increase my chances of scoring the penalty. So one thing I want to say when you're doing this, the reason I can get away with this and other players don't is because I act like I'm about to run up and blast as hard as I can. There's no hesitation in my stride until I'm at this point. And then I react to him. What some people do is they have a very hesitant, very slow run up. So their run up is more like this. And they're watching the keeper, but the keeper knows that he's waiting for him to dive so he can react quickly. Maybe not today, but on a different day. Okay. So when you're doing that, if you're going to choose that method, act like you're sprinting at that ball, you're going to hit it full force.


It's Saturday. It's holiday weekend, and I had no clue what kind of video I wanted to make today So I just thought I would ramble for a bit about a topic that is Probably the most boring topic I've ever covered and that is To ask this question How often should you restart your computer because this is an answer or this is a question I should say that no one really knows the answer to and I think it's different depending on what operating system you use because I think if you use windows You probably should start restart your computer more often But that might just be my anti-window voice in the back of my head that is always screaming in pain Biasing my you know response to the question.  Now obviously It also depends on whether or not you're running a you know desktop Linux You know computer or a server because they're different things, right? So that's my question. I don't even know the answer if there is an answer because right now my computer's been Oh, that's I can actually show you this and that'll give you a Sneak peek at my rice that I've been working on it's not done yet, but it's you know, it's getting there So this is my desktop right now, and I'll put here in my bar I have the start time or the uptime. I'm at 101 hours. So, you know, that's what what? Over three days something like that. I don't know maybe close to four days But you know, that's how long it's been since I restart my computer And I always tend to get to the point of around 120 hours, and then I restart my computer It just feels like that's the time for me to do it. So my question to you in the comments below I Have two things that I want to know from you What's the longest you've ever had your desktop Linux? computer be up in terms of uptime and What is your uptime right now? I'd love to know Just as an you know an experiment. So in the comments below, let me know those two things the interesting thing is that Android, I don't know if you can actually see this or not on your Android phone Which is based on Linux. I feel like that has to be started more often than actual Linux and that's probably because of the Google nonsense, but I've always found that over time Android slows down Without a restart and often times you actually have to nuke and pave your phone in order to actually get to actually Be up and running smoothly again because otherwise it just feels like it slows down over time Maybe it's because as they do up, you know version updates or whatever the phones become less capable of running the OPE DOS, I don't know But you don't seem to have that problem on Linux, but I don't know It's just one of those questions that I've thought about for a while I put I think I put up a poll a few months ago about the whole uptime thing I just wanted to make a video about it.  Just let everybody know I'm not doing anything tomorrow other than Drinking some beer and watching some fireworks. That's The American way y'all And now I got to apologize to everybody in the South again great. All right. Anyways, that's it for us on this video I hope everybody No matter where you are has a wonderful weekend if you're in the United States happy 4th Regular service will resume in terms in terms of videos on Monday Monday probably on Monday So make sure you subscribe like comment follow all that kind of stuff You can follow me on Twitter at the Linux cast support me on patreon patreon.com slash Linux cast Before I go I'd like to take a moment to thank my current patrons Devon Marcus Magland Donnie's Fen East Coast web Mitchell Chris Chris I believe it's also up his contributions. So thank you Chris American camp. Thanks everybody for watching. I'll see you next time I


So, it was a crazy ride, but that concludes the intro to the AI art series. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for watching. I had a lot of fun making this, pushing the AI to its limit, testing the different art styles with different AI, and then sharing what I learned with you guys. It was extremely exciting for me. In the grand scheme of things, I think all this technology does is give real artists superpowers, but more importantly, make art accessible to normal people. If you were a Photoshop master with perfect technique and lightning fast workflow two months ago, you are now a god. Because while all the noobs are struggling to describe prompts that give them weird funny images, your superior art knowledge will let you create hundreds of pictures in an hour. And with your master skills, you are not at the mercy of the machine like everyone else, because you have the option to manually fix and adjust the faces, hands, and background to get exactly what you want. So if you're a real artist, there has never been a better time to be alive than now. But the best part is the door for casual people. If you're a plumber or a construction worker or a soldier or just some dude with no art experience at all, for the first time in the history of the world, if you have a cool idea that you want to turn into art, that's an option now. I have a friend who does manual labor. He is not artistic at all, but his three-year-old daughter loves art.  And his family has a great time bonding over this stuff. This was not a thing last year. Giving random people the ability to make art makes art accessible and fun for everyone. And I think overall, that's a good thing for the world. And listen, if you hate AI, you think it's evil or illegal, that's totally and completely fine. I'm not here to argue with you about what's right and what's wrong because I don't deal in should, would, or could. I deal in what is, and I deal with it now. And the truth is there is no going back. If you think AI art is a problem now, you have no idea. Just wait till the end of next year because you have to understand that every AI that I've showed you this month is a baby. This is all just the beginning. In the month that it took for me to make this series, like 12 new iterations of stable diffusion came out. We went from mush to perfect faces. Anime went from fugly to this. And new AI art models are literally coming out every week. It's not going to stop, and it's not going to stay within 2D art. There are already AIs coming out for photogrammetry, for text to 3D, text to animation. I already use AI to generate music. You've actually heard some of the songs in the background of a few of my short videos. This is now our reality. And my job is to make sure that everyone on this channel has all the information they need to adapt to it. Now, I'm a 3D guy, so I can't wait for them to complete text to 3D.   I personally hope that those two things are the very first things to get automated.  Because there is a huge opportunity for you waiting in the future. When text to 3D becomes a thing, a lot of people are going to start generating their own characters and ideas. And just like with 2D, sometimes the faces or the hands or the clothes, they're just not going to look right.  So don't feel worried. Feel excited. I am. What's happening in 2D is foresight into what's going to happen for us in 3D. And it's gonna be awesome. And just because we're at the end of this series doesn't mean that I won't cover new things about stable diffusion in the future. I'll keep a close eye on this tech. And when something useful comes out that I think you guys should use, I'll definitely be covering them and sharing what I find with you guys here on the channel. Also, I just love coming up with character concepts using stable diffusion now and just leaving my computer on, generating things in the background while I do my work. And I have a lot of cool images that I'd like to show you guys. So I'm gonna start ending each month with a video containing the best art that I've generated that month. Kind of like a little mini art exhibition. But personally, out of all the videos that I've made for you guys, I think the most important ones are the three last ones regarding art terminology. And that's because the technology will change constantly. But your knowledge of art history, styles, and terminology is the one consistent skill you will need no matter what AI you end up using. So hopefully this info will be useful to you long after the software changes. If you enjoyed this series, please don't thank me. Thank the support squad on Patreon and YouTube members who fund the videos each month. In a YouTube world where I get content deleted and flagged for trying to help you install free and open source software or demonetized randomly, the support squad really is the heart and shield that keeps the show insulated from the random whims of YouTube. So please appreciate them because they really are the reason I can still create this kind of content for you guys for free. Alright, well, I think that just about wraps things up. If you join me next video, I'll talk about what's gonna happen next. But in the meanwhile, thank you so much for watching. And as always, hope you have a fantastic day. And I'll see you around.


What's up, how are you guys this week another Monday down at Frankie's free-range meat and I'm losing my mind as usual But we'll see how this week goes before I I start complaining too much So we'll start with a couple of reviews our first reviews for the water kefir Very tasty very pressurized open with care the contents are so worth it helps with my inconsistent digestion Thanks, Frankie another review for the water kefir the best probiotic you can get I just want to thank Frankie boy for the amazing products he provides in his websites They have made me healthier day by day as for the water kefir after drinking them for three weeks now My allergies have gone away no more running nose itchy eyes are constant sneezing Of course in combination all the other delicious and nutritious foods Frankie sells. Thank you from a loyal customer We appreciate you now. We have a review for the collagen bone broth Decided to order 15 of Frankie's bone broths hoping it would taste better than what the heck these Cali butchers are selling me And I was making the packaging was perfect and got it in just a few days Not worried about it going bad as I warm it up before consuming the taste of Frankie's bone broth is ten times better than the ones I've what made I put a tiny pinch of salt and it was perfect And hopefully order a 30-day supply in the near future for my gut regimen. Thanks Frankie All right I can't find the other reviews on my phone because I forgot to print them out but Someone sent me an email saying how after he started wearing the Wi-Fi shield and clothing He you know was a lot more relaxed and could sleep a lot easier and the thing that radiation does it Excites yourselves through calcium channels So you would think that you would feel more energized and like ready to go and better when you wear the the clothing But what actually happens is you do feel better But it's because you're more relaxed and calm and your body can kind of finally rest and recover from the high Radiation environment, so I'll let's just jump inside and show you guys a few things The real reason I'm going inside is because this girl from next door stepped out smells like a cheap hook I'm about to fucking vomit between the cigarettes and the So I got down here a little late today just when UPS came in to pick up the packages We don't have as many orders as we've been doing this week probably because we've been running under a few different products We have restocked most of the products on Frankie's free-range foods. We have the Flex Trost We have whey protein vanilla berry bars chocolate bars Apple nut bars, and then we're running low on chemic in we have the meat granola in here Some flavor jerky available. We did run out of plane But hopefully we have some more plain jerky this week on the foods I think we might have some chicken stock left and we're gonna make a fresh batch of collagen broth today So we should have everything The water key for all the flavors are available downstairs I put it on a little bit of a discount for you guys just to push it out because I could put it in the fridge And it'll still be good, but I rather you know just have the highest amount of probiotics available for you guys when I ship it out All right, so we do have all of the local Angus beef available here So you guys can buy it in 20 pound packages and you'll get a combination of ground beef steaks and roasts So the main benefit of the Angus beef is what we spoke about last week guys You know, you're supporting a local farmer, you know where it's coming from, but I gotta I gotta get my own Salter house or something because otherwise I just got to wrap things up, you know every single time I've done it With a new butcher every single time new processor every single time You know, they're giving me less than half of the hang and weight of the animal Which means they're stealing you know a hundred two hundred pounds of meat and now I got to sell You know thousands and thousands of dollars worth of beef while breaking even on the product Which is it's completely discussed to me. I can't deal with it anymore. So It's whatever just bunch of every one that runs a business seems to be a parasite I was trying to get you guys something cheaper and more affordable and That solution was some bison. So this is available on the website. I believe it's 750 a pound so some of you guys might see similar stuff in local markets For eight or nine dollars a pound at 750 then you put our 10% discount You're getting this for less than seven dollars a pound. So whether you want like a Affordable high-quality meat as bison or even feeding this to your pets is good I mean you're not gonna find something at that price anywhere like in a supermarket let alone online So, you know, I know there have been a few customers that have had a hard time dealing with the price increases over the past few years So this is a little something that hopefully helps you guys out and although it's not it's not pet food It's not dog food. I think I think it like 675 650 a pound compared to what you would pay for raw pet food This is much higher quality and it's it's just as affordable. We are loaded up on the Ibarico ground pork So although we ran out of the beef bacon We still have the one-pound portion beef belly available for you guys and we should have the Pork bacon back in stock this week as well. But as a temporary solution I was able to get you guys some wild boar bacon, which you know our bacon is just Raw belly that's sliced so The boar bacon is a bit leaner than the pork bacon. Obviously it has like the wild boar flavor and it's a lot thinner strips So if you guys want to try this out, you know by all means I think that's all the meat products for today as I've been saying me past few weeks The suppliers have not been so good at getting things back in stock and you know The reason I go through like the wholesale slaughterhouses instead of these local ones is you know When I order a hundred pounds of ribeye in a box, I'm gonna get a hundred pounds of ribeye I'm not gonna have to mess with the hanging weight them jerking me around all that nonsense So we do have some roast beef freshly made available This week probably gonna be sold out in a day or two and we're almost out of all the cheeses For the most part we're only really selling the a2 cheeses right now because cheese prices have been going up like crazy as well organ supplements Everything is in stock for the most part. I might Be getting some adrenal in stock, which I mean I've been trying to do it forever But you know, it's not one of those things, you know, I'm not in the club So these these businesses won't sell me the powders anymore So I don't know what I would do on organ supplements and but but maybe there's a chance I can get some freeze-dried adrenal.  I said last week We should be getting some new products and relatively soon Frankie's naturals. We don't have the label for the bug spray yet, but I should have it this week So we'll have the bug spray for mosquitoes. Whatever when you're going out hiking next week I was kind of looking forward to doing the eggs and the Darien stuff possibly but This guy has really been pissing me off these past few weeks like getting a hold of them on the phones a nightmare and Then when I did call him He had to cut me short on his phone call to talk to someone else for like 45 minutes and then He called me back. I missed this call by a minute and then he like just left the phone Like it's getting and then doing but you know, I don't know I'm hoping we can do the eggs possibly dairy But I just really don't want to take on any extra work at this point. That's just gonna lose me more money It's just probably it's probably more trouble than it's worth and I'm probably not going to make money off of it Despite providing you guys with a high quality product I should have really been in a position already where I would have had enough money Profited from the business to get my own property get the farm myself have my own employees buy the feed and You know, honestly, it's probably the same amount of Profit but since I have can would have control over the property the operation the employees It's more reliable. I have more control over it and I can do more things. So I Don't know I'll keep you guys posted this week. But anyway, thank you guys for joining me today. If you could please Drop like on the video Leave a comment down below Subscribe so that YouTube cannot subscribe you next week and be sure to check that notification bell So they don't notify you of my videos You can go to Frank dash if I calm guys where you can see all my businesses


Welcome back to Exotic Wine Travel. I am your host, Matthew Orkey. Hi, I'm Sherwin Tan. Welcome back to the show. We're filming this while the world's going a little bit crazy right now, so just make sure wherever you are you're staying healthy and safe. I'll drink lots of wine. It's good for you. We're going to talk about some Australian wines today and I am super excited because I love Australian wines. You grew up drinking Australian wines, right? I grew up drinking lots of Australian wine coming from Singapore. I've been in Singapore, I drank a lot of Australian wine. It's so funny because we spend a lot of our time in Europe and people are curious about Australian wines because you don't see the high quality stuff making it to Europe all the time, right? What you got to understand is Australia makes enormous amounts of wine. Most people are familiar with Yellowtail Chiraz, a real cheap type of wines, but people in the fine wine world, what you really have to understand is that Australia, the small producers are really focusing on site-specific terroir-driven wines. There's some of the oldest Grenache, Chiraz, Movedre vines in the world. There's lots of cool climates. It's not just this big hot desert island. Lots of cool climate areas, right? I'm 100% with you. In fact, one of the best cool climate on Grenache that I've had is actually from Australia. That you love the Susette, right? Yeah. It was one of our favorite wines from a few years ago. Anyways, we're getting into some wines from Victoria and then specifically, a place called Strath Bogie Ranges is tiny. I think there's only 600 hectares in the Appalachian that was established in 1970. And Victoria in the south of Australia, like right in the tip, where Melbourne is, you've got to understand there's a lot of cool climate stuff coming out of there. I personally love all the wines from Yarra Valley. There's some great things coming out of the Macedon Ranges. I think Jilong, Gippsland, Mornington Peninsula, and even south there, we did a big tasting of Tasmanian wines last year. It was awesome, right? I mean, it's not just a discovery of wines that you didn't expect them to taste. So what did it do? But also you get a lot of value for Money Wine in that sense because a lot of these wines are not, they don't have like a renowned international reputation. So you really don't have to pay a lot for the high quality offer. So let's get into this. We've got this winery that I think is the biggest one of the Streff Bogey Ranges. This is Fowles Wine. They make, they're big time hunters. I guess they have a restaurant. I haven't been there yet actually. They make wines too. They're specifically pairing with food. And we have two of their more premium wines today. You ready to taste some of these wines? I'm really thirsty. Okay. So let's start here. We have the Ladies Who Shoot Their Lunch. So Fowles Wine is the brand, is the name, is the winery. Ladies Who Shoot Their Lunch is the series of wine. This is the 2018 Wild Ferment Chardonnay Barrel Fermented. You ready to get started? Absolutely. I really like the name of the wine. It really shows this like countryside living. I mean, I think they really meant it right? Like ladies who shoot their lunch or hunt for their lunch, they actually go out to to prepare for it. And it kind of paints the picture of the countryside and where they are Do you have a corkscrew to open these? Wow, that's really tough. That's like new world technology. Crack that bad bad boy open. Let's give this go. You have to remember people even wine geeks forget this. 2018 sounds super young. You got to remember in the Southern Hemisphere, they labeled the vintage when they pick it. So they're picking at the beginning of 2018. So this is actually kind of like a 2017 wine up here. So let's give this a go. Chardonnay, really why they planted in Australia. As I poured this, I could already smell it's pretty explosive coming out of the glass. Let's give that a nice little straw yellow color. Let's give this a sniff. It's explosive. I can smell it. I can smell it from here. Let's see here. There's no like a stereotype new world wine, whatever people think, imagine, right? Yeah. So I know that this is only partially malolactic fermentation. For users that aren't hardcore white wine geeks, that's converting lactic acid into softer malic acid gives us buttery note. There is a little bit of butter note going on. Absolutely. There it's not overly pungent or explosive to me, right? You still get the I still have the melon kind of the I think the aromatic complex, I mean the aromatic intensities there. Yes. There's a little bit of that butter, not a butter bomb Chardonnay, but you do get a little bit of that. I think it's essential actually for Chardonnay to have this sort of boundary. A touch of grass too, at least a little bit. I know that this appellation is a little bit higher. I think it goes up to a thousand meters. I don't know where the vines are planted along Let's give this a go here. So what do you think? I love the acidic structure. It's a perfect like match of malolactic fermentation, so malic acid and lactic acid. Sometimes it's not very important to talk about acidity when it comes to other wines, but I really think that Chardonnay it's very essential to talk about both because you get your roundness, creaminess, richness, and then you're finished with this lemony striking acidity, which I find in this wine. The M pallet in terms of persistence is not exceptionally long, but I don't think it really matters in this regard as well because it's just a very balanced wine. It's a classic, nice, well-made Chardonnay. I think it's really well made. It's super delicious. It's not for me, it's not like Grand Cru white burgundy, but it doesn't, it's not trying to be that. It doesn't have to be that. It's delicious. You have this kind of tanny acidity. Absolutely. Really enjoyable. I know that older vintages have been scored by Parker, by Venice before, not these newer vintages. Let me give this another shot. So the label says wow for man Chardonnay. I think it's important for some people to know that. Yeah, 13.2% alcohol, very balanced wine. 13.2%. Yeah. I think this is super delicious. This is the kind, this is really kind of the balance between somebody that you don't want that old school California butter stuff because the smell gives that to you, but somebody that wants more acidity or strength, you can give it to both kind of pallets because it brings together both worlds.  I really enjoy it. I really enjoy it too. To me it's, to me it's, to me it's easily a wine that's going to score in the, I would be guessing that this score blend would be in the 90 point type range. I think it's really, really super enjoyable. Okay, let's move on. So anything else you want to add on this? I mean you dealt with it. I think it's important for people to know that this one's available in the US and the UK. Yeah. That's the reason why we're doing a show on this because we want to only introduce practical wines to you that most of you are able to define. Yeah. So I think they're in the $25, $30 range. So yeah, it's a little more premium, not super expensive. What Australia is most famous for? We have the ladies who shoot their launch Wildferment Shiraz from 2017. Can I get the corkscrew out? Don't get old, you know. Okay. I looked at the website. This vintage of Shiraz, they had to pick into late April. And if you equate that into the Northern Hemisphere terms, that's like picking into late October. So it must have been a cooler vintage. Let's see if it's Shirazi or it's more Shirai. We're looking at an alcohol of 14.2. Let's give this a go. Not explode what people think of typical humongous Blackberry plum Shiraz. This is like a lot of blueberry to me. I think to suit that, it's important when you think about Shiraz from Australia, it's very important to not just kind of create a tight cast and talk about Australian Shiraz, but really understand the climate. I think it's more accurate to talk about cool climate, warm climate, you know, the sort of thing to understand the growing condition. Both the wine's not too oaky. That's what I like at all. Both the wine's definitely not too oaky. What do you get? I get blue fruit? For me, it's quite candid for me on the nose. Black raspberry. Oh, it's ripe? Too ripe? No, it's just candid. I don't think being candid really indicates that it's too ripe. It's not compote or whatever. Pepper? I definitely get pepper. Do you get floral aspects or not? No, a little bit. Okay, let's give this a little bit of a go. This definitely feels very new. Shiraz, Shiraz to me. Can you explain that to people, for people that don't know of them? I mean, it's just more clarity, very fruit driven. The tannins are more polished. I won't say that it's too ripe because it's not really compote or burn. It has a lot of nuances still from the cooler weather, but there's just clarity, a very clean wine, and very very fruit driven. For me, I say maybe because it's maybe we've been, you know, we've always in Europe so long. I'm really, really actually really enjoying this wine right now. Lots of fruit. Like I said, blueberries, black, black raspberries, red raspberries. If I put pepper over top, it's ripe. The tannins are really, really nice. They're not too astringent. I think it's really enjoyable wine. I'm not talking about the rejuice sugar, but there is a lot of sweetness in this wine as well, which indicates for me more phenolic brightness and of a new world style of Shiraz. So are you not enjoying this right now? I mean, if I have to score it, I would score it. Well, but this is not my kind of Shiraz to be honest. Okay. For me, I'm really enjoying it right now. I like Shiraz. Obviously, it's nice to taste some Australian Shiraz, not too big, not too fruity. If I were to score, I would score probably probably 90 plus. I think I like it a tad better than the Chardonnay. So yeah, check this out. I think this would go, actually, you think this would, this is in their ladies who shoot their lunch series. Would this go well with game meats? Absolutely. I definitely, definitely, absolutely think so. I would even think about like wild game meat, roasted meat, which would go very well because it's got a lot of sweetness, a lot of explosiveness on the palate to go well.  I would definitely think so. In fact, I think I'll like it a lot better with food. Okay. I think it's a good wine. Okay. By the way, it's just, it's just whether you're in the mood for it and what you're getting yourself into. I'm not really the kind of person who drinks a lot of fruity Shiraz. Yeah. Okay. This is really nice. Now, enjoyable, enjoyable wines. Check out these wines from Fall's wine. I'll put links in the description box. We don't have affiliate connections or anything like that. Just, I think they're, if you want to get into us, some more higher quality Australian wines, these are a good place to start. Check out, just explore some of the wines from Victoria. I think you'll find some really good stuff. Yeah, definitely. So guys, take it easy. Remember, explore, try new things. And if you liked this video, please subscribe to our YouTube channel.

This board will help us to demonstrate STM32F7 performance and versatility thanks to its large peripheral set. This is the STM32F746G Disco board insert card, front and back sides. The STM32746G Microcontroller features an ARM Cortex-M7 core running at up to 216 MHz, one megabyte of flash memory, and 340 kilobytes of RAM. It also features a rich set of peripherals, including 16 megabytes of quad-SPI flash memory to store large data arrays or program code, two USB on-the-go allowing a direct connection with other USB devices without the need for a host computer, a digital camera module interface, or DCMI to capture high-speed uncompressed and JPEG compressed images, two STMEMS-based digital microphones, three audio digital-to-analog converters with a 3.5 millimeter jack output, and two audio analog-to-digital converters with a 3.5 millimeter jack input, a 4.3 inch 480 x 272 color LCD with touchscreen capability to navigate through the demonstration menus, and an embedded ST-Link v2-1 debugger programmer for connecting your favorite development tools. The Discovery Kit has five possible power supply sources. It can be supplied by USB in one of the following configurations. Plug in a Type B mini USB cable on CN14 and set the JP-1 jumper to 5 volt link. Plug in a micro USB cable on CN13 and set the JP-1 jumper to USBFS. Or plug in a micro USB cable on CN14 and set the JP-1 jumper to USBHS. It can also be supplied externally if the JP-1 jumper is set to 5 volt external and either connect a 5 volt DC power adapter to JP-2 or a 7 to 12 volt DC power on the CN6 Arduino connector pin named VIN. Now let's look at the demos included in the STM32F746G Discovery Kit. Now let's run the various applications by touching the menu icons. The demonstration software is pre-loaded in the STM32F746NGH6 flash memory. The latest versions of the demonstration source code and associated documentation can be downloaded from www.st.com slash STM32F7 Discovery. The touchscreen enables navigation through the demonstration menus on the LCD screen. The demonstration firmware features eight applications. The audio player application plays back WAV files from a USB drive. The video player application plays back video files loaded in flash memory. The audio recorder shows the signal processing capability in real-time conditions. The game application demonstrates the graphics capabilities of the platform. The garden control application enables the control of two watering systems based either on sprinklers or a drip system. The home alarm application controls the cameras inside a house. The VNC server is a graphical desktop sharing system enabling the controls of remote devices. And finally the system info menu displays various board information like the firmware version, the CPU speed and the core type. The audio player application plays back in loops and a WAV file loaded from the media directory available inside the STM32QBF7 package on a USB drive. Connect the USB drive to the CN12 USB high-speed connector. Connect the headset to the CN10 audio out connector. Add audio files from the media directory to the playlist and play it. Earphone level can be adjusted during playback. And an equalizer function demonstrates the signal processing capabilities in real-time. The video player application plays back in loops and a video file loaded from the media directory available inside the STM32QBF7 package on a USB drive. Connect the USB drive to the CN12 USB high-speed connector. Add video files from the media directory to the playlist and play it. It is possible to play music as a background task while playing video. The audio recorder application uses the two MEMS digital microphones located on the side of the LCD display to capture the sound. The analog audio signal is then converted into a digital 16-bit audio sample stream at 48kHz and recorded in a WAV file. The recorded audio file is stored on the USB drive and can be used as a source file for the audio playback application. The garden watering application is only available in alpha version. The final version will demonstrate the control of two watering methods based on sprinklers or on a drop-wise system. The home alarm application controls the cameras inside a house. Different zones can be activated and monitored independently. Camera streaming is not activated as no camera is mounted on the board. Pictures are stored in flash memory. Mobile network computing or VNC is a graphical desktop sharing system enabling the controls of remote devices. Connect an Ethernet cable on the CN9 connector and launch the VNC server. Wait for an IP address from the DHCP server. The IP address is displayed when assigned. Open the VNC client application available inside the cube package on a PC. See the IP address from the server and connect the PC client to the server on the board. From now on, all actions on the PC are executed on the board and vice versa. Note that additional boards are available for different uses depending on the targeted applications. STM32 nuclear boards enable quick and flexible prototyping. Discovery kits target more creative demos thanks to a large LCD display. Carbon boards are intended for a complete development platform for full-featured application.
