![]() ![]() I ripped open my finger on a rusty nail while tossing planks into a lake. I’ve got reduced mobility in my right index finger and compensate for it by using my left index finger to press both the B and Y keys. You may have been taught a different style or just prefer it the other way around. However, which finger handles which key is an arbitrary decision. Your left index finger should handle the B key and the right index finger should handle the Y key. There’s some leeway to make adaptations within each hand’s key responsibilities, but you’re out of luck if those adaptations cross the split keyboard divide. Split keyboards enforce the rules of the touch-typing method by design. From each hand’s resting position, each finger can reach a couple of keys with a minimal amount of movement. When typing with the touch-typing method, you’re not supposed to move your hands off their resting position. Keyboards are always split along the hand-separation rules commonly used with the touch-typing (“blind typing”) method. However, there’s a big limitation with these keyboards and that’s the big old question: “where’s the middle of the keyboard?” ![]() Split keyboards, including the Dygma Raise, are often marketed as explicitly being more ergonomic than your typical keyboards. Getting rid of the left half of the keyboard leaves more room for better postures and for working with the mouse. Few games bind common actions to keys on the right side of the keyboard. They’re preferable to the actual arrow keys as they have more keys that can be used as hotkeys in the immediate vicinity. The WASD keys are used as arrow keys to move either the camera or a character around. Many games are optimized for the right-hand holding the mouse and the left hand resting on the WASD keys. Split keyboards might also be a suitable alternative for gamers - regardless of their body type - who might not need the right half of their keyboards. People are different and so should our keyboards be. However, the same wider setup may be uncomfortable for someone with narrow shoulders. It may be more comfortable to split the keyboard to increase the distance resting position distance between your arms. You can position the two halves as you want to suit your needs.Īs discussed in my keyboard sizing guide, a wider keyboard setup is best suited for people with broad shoulders. The Raise has split the space bar into four keys and has also included four extra “thumb buttons” below those keys. A 64 % keyboard is a variation on the more standard 60 % keyboard (no function keys, navigation keys, or a numpad) featuring some non-standard extra keys. It’s a 64 % keyboard that can optionally be split down the middle, creating two single-hand keyboard surfaces. However, you better agree with its designers on how to best use a keyboard.ĭygma Labs sent me one of its Dygma Raise split mechanical keyboards. I’m talking about both wave keyboards that bend upward in the middle (typically branded as “ergonomic keyboards”) and keyboards that can literally split in two. Split keyboards can offer greater flexibility and variety for your working posture and desktop arrangements. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() It took you a while to mention people like Christy- and especially your ex Sara Emma Jensen- in public. Pitchfork: Christy once told me that she immediately knew "Skinny Love" was about her when you first sang it to her. I'd been working on so many songs that spring, but nothing really gathered itself until "Flume" came along. It was this new falsetto thing that I'd been working on but never landed. Justin Vernon: When I made "Flume" one afternoon at Christy 's house, it immediately felt insane. When did you know that this new guise might be different? Pitchfork: Before For Emma, Forever Ago and even Bon Iver, you'd done a lot of projects under a lot of names. Stream Bon Iver, Bon Iver- out June 21 via Jagjaguwar and a day earlier in Europe via 4AD- in its entirety: I caught up with Justin via telephone last month as he was poolside in San Diego, where his dad was leading a meeting of the National Academy of Arbitrators. When he escaped to make For Emma, he was a sad dude, but Bon Iver, Bon Iver is his confirmation as one of music's boldest young artists, a songwriter with a field of vision much bigger than I could've expected back in 2005, when he was singing from the corner of an out-of-business art gallery. When I first heard Vernon's follow-up album, Bon Iver, Bon Iver, I was immediately stunned both by his growth- the swells and intricacies of these new songs are without rival amongst his work- and the relief I could hear in his voice. And, as Bon Iver has played to increasingly large and rapt audiences over the last four years, Vernon has also become an artistic force of collaborative energy- the link between Kanye West and Collections of Colonies of Bees, or Kathleen Edwards and Nicki Minaj. That, of course, was finishing recording For Emma, Forever Ago, a record that turned the guy with the messy back bedroom on Everett Street into something like a star. The record gave Justin a purpose and, by the time it was done, some ideas about how and what he would do in his father's cabin in Wisconsin. That afternoon, Ivan Howard- of Raleigh's the Rosebuds- asked Justin to step in and record the rest of his band's third album, Night of the Furies. The gathering did bear a certain sense of relief, though. His best friends in the world were now trying to build a band called Megafaun, and he seemed to have little idea what he was going to do back home. DeYarmond Edison was done, as was his relationship with Smith. Vernon had never loved Raleigh, but now he seemed set on escape, miserable with his situation and his surroundings. ![]() I remember it as more of a grill-out gathering, with a mood that was declarative rather than celebratory. The night before he was set to return, he hosted a party on Fairall Drive, at the small duplex with the busted window that he split with Christy Smith (his Raleigh girlfriend, one of a few For Emma, Forever Ago muses, and a player on that album) and where he wrote a good chunk of what would become his breakout record. Vernon headed back to Wisconsin during the summer of 2006. He snapped the end of practice was the end of that band. A few months later, bassist Bradley Cook (who became a friend after he took a job at the record store where I worked) noticed that Vernon, who was suffering from mononucleosis and a liver infection, was idling through yet another practice. That summer pushed the band to its artistic breaking point. Vernon had recently finished a pretty-but-pained solo EP called Hazeltons, while other members of the group seemed intent on heading into even stranger territory. Those shows were some of my favorite musical experiences ever but, for the musicians that had staged them, they made the polarities within DeYarmond Edison abundantly clear. During those shows, they experimented with Steve Reich phase pieces, Naked City spazz bursts, and, most famously, a falsetto coo that, two years later, made Vernon famous as Bon Iver. I liked their songs, but I especially liked their sounds: From Vernon's rich guitar tone and deep-set voice to Phil Cook's tasteful keyboard playing, they sounded like an almost-great band still in search of exactly what it wanted to say.ĭuring its year as a unit in Raleigh, the band pushed its limits by writing its most unconventional songs (see: "Epoch") and planning a four-show residency in the same art gallery where I'd first seen them play. ![]() He was singing some song- probably about love- in front of an audience that was listening rather intently.īut back in late 2005, the crowd was small, the venue was an art gallery, and the current Bon Iver frontman was leading DeYarmond Edison, the quartet with which he'd relocated from Eau Claire, Wis., to Raleigh, N.C., several months before. DeYarmond was a rustic folk-rock band that took chances. When I was first introduced to Justin Vernon, it was a scene in one sense familiar to those who have seen Bon Iver in the last four years. ![]() ![]() ![]() Personally, I’m interested in the upcoming Tekken X Street Fighter, and think Namco might be able to do more with the crossover than Capcom did. But if you’re skill level is somewhere in the middle (maybe semi pro), and you’re into both the Street Fighter and Tekken series, then I’m sure you’ll have some good fun with this game. I can’t vouch for the hardcore, but have heard that this game isn’t as mechanically competent as it should be. It’s simply not as fun as what else is out there, and especially if you’re a fairly casual gamer when it comes to the fighting genre I’d recommend something else instead. Street Fighter X Tekken isn’t the worst fighting game I’ve played recently ( this is), but it’s also not the best. I’m not really sure if this was a good idea or a stupid one, but it certainly happened. ![]() There’s even some guest characters such as Pac-Man and a classic box art inspired Mega Man. The game is certainly more fun when you’re mauling your enemies as Kuma the bear. In fact, Street Fighter X Tekken has one of the largest character rosters in any fighting game I’ve ever played, and you can pretty much guarantee that your favourites from both series are playable. That’s not to say the game doesn’t have it’s good qualities, and both the variety of stages and selection of characters is impressive. I’m talking about the over saturated colour pallet, the stupid Gem System, the 6 button control scheme on a 4 button controller, the DLC ridden customisation modes, and the weird overly exaggerated character models that really freak me out (and not in a good way like those in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle). And not really for a specific reason, it’s just a list of smaller frustrations I had that built up into a game that isn’t as fun to play as what else is out there. Games are meant to be about having fun right? Street Fighter X Tekken may be a fairly competent fighter, but I did find that it managed to suck the fun out of an experience that should have been more enjoyable. Starfield mods have racked up an impressive 14 million downloads since the game launched 2 weeks ago and were super excited to see all the mods being shared. There must be many more people that suck at Street Fighter X Tekken compared to those who are awesome at it, especially as (in all honesty) I found it to be a fairly average game that’s not worth sticking at long enough to turn pro. difficulty is set past medium, but I don’t actually know anyone in real life who can beat me at this game. So if you’re a real pro you’ll probably have a very different experience of the game than myself, and may come into many of the technical issues I’ve heard about but personally haven’t really noticed.īut y’know what, I may struggle when the A.I. I’ve been playing the Street Fighter games for years, but whilst I’ve picked up skills at other fighters such as BlazBlue and Dead or Alive, Street Fighter has never really been my strong suit. I’ll be completely honest and admit that I’m actually fairly rubbish at Street Fighter X Tekken. Still, you’ll only be playing five minutes before realising that this Capcom developed game is essentially Street Fighter IV with Tekken characters, and we’ll have to wait until next year to see Namco’s take on the series. Do the same changes as you did with the first one, save, exit then load the game.Was I the only person who saw this fighting game crossover coming? I mean if we can have Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games then we can have Street Fighter X Tekken. ![]() If this does not work by itself, there is an additional a file located in patch > CMN > boot > game. You will want to change 'dlc_b' to 'default' Save the file then move it back into the resource>CMN>boot>game folder and you will be good to go, if the copy of the Lua file still has a "- copy" in the name or anything like that make sure to delete it so that the name matches the original file, and exit out of everything before loading up the game. ![]() With your copy on the desktop open it up with Notepad++ and look for each DLC character, within their info you will see one named = 'dlc_b'. then copy the a file paste it on your desktop then move the orginal somewhere safe as a backup. Find your Street Fighter X Tekken folder then go to Resource > CMN > boot > game. In order to get the DLC characters for free on PC you will need Notepad++. Or do you mean another way?

![]() Actimates Barney is required for the pack-in titles, "Fun on Imagination Island", but was optional for the other titles. The software makes use of a special programming library called "ToyAPI", which communicated with the ActiMates via the PC Pack. Because of the updated capabilities of this pack, Barney's vocabulary jumped from 2,000 words to an impressive 14,000 words in total. Using the PC Pack, Barney could interact with special PC titles developed by 7th Level and Microsoft. Covering Barney's eyes, which have light sensors, and uncovering them would let the plush play peek-a-boo with the user. These actions can be achieved by pressing the various sensors throughout the plush's body.įor example, if one were to squeeze one of Barney's hands, he would play through one of the games. When used as a stand-alone toy, Barney has a 2,000 word vocabulary and is able to sing 17 songs in addition to being able to play 12 different games. To get the ActiMates to interact with the TV show or the videos, a hockey-puck-shaped transmitter device called a TV Pack must be purchased separately and connected to the video-out connector of the TV set, while to have the ActiMates interact with the specialized computer software (developed by 7th Level and published by Microsoft), another hockey-puck-shaped transmitter device called a PC Pack must be purchased separately and be connected to the MIDI/game port connector of the PC. While Barney can be used as a stand alone toy, the main feature is the ActiMates doll's interactivity with the PC and television. ![]() Dolls based on Arthur, his sister D.W., and the Teletubbies were also made following the success of the Barney plush.Īfter dwindling sales, the dolls were discontinued in 2000 with Microsoft losing the patent rights to the toys in 2005. Put into stores, Barney quickly became a huge success that holiday season. The first of these dolls, modeled after Barney, were first displayed at the New York Toy Fair in 1997 to much praise. Codenamed "Gepetto" for the motion technology inside the dolls, the Actimates toys were Microsoft's attempt to get into the toy market, especially the digital sector that was growing very popular by the late 1990s. ![]() ![]() ![]() In addition to innovative content, registration includes keynote breakfasts, networking breaks and lunches, an opening reception, and a Friday evening wrap party.
