Reply from support How are you? It's nice to meet you. I am extremely dissatisfied especially considering the amount of money that is charged for your subscription compared to competition. Support was nonexistent and I needed to ask people on reddit for a good way to contact since your phone number no longer works and I spent over a week waiting for replies from the"Contact Us" page. Casting music to other devices like mutt tv is a nightmare that never works (didn't have any issues with spotify or youtube music and is used daily for Netflix etc).

While we still rely on objective testing to determine the sharpness, detail, and contrast performance of a lens, many art and creative photographers are focused on making images that capture a traditional look that sets their work apart.Ībove image: Coffee House Portrait. Over the past 20 years or so, we’ve swung back to using more subjective terms such as bokeh to describe the visual appearance of the out-of-focus areas of the image. But by the Mid-20th Century, most optical scientists had dismissed such terms as imprecise and speculative, turning to resolution and, later, MTF testing to quantify lens-performance parameters. Back in the day, writers tried to express these qualities by referring to the “rounded,” “luminous,” or “plastic” rendition of a specific lens. ![]() In other words, they render subjects like portraits and landscapes in a distinctive and appealing way that can’t quite be conveyed in words. Why mount classic lenses on your digital camera? Because they have character! As many of today’s creative digital shooters have discovered, some of the great old lenses of the analog era can capture images that have that elusive quality known as character. ![]() What truly stands out in the Star Ocean series besides its thematic setting is its emphasis on invested empowerment through the game’s many sub systems such as item creation and specialties. While the order the games are played isn’t important, it is highly recommended to save Star Ocean Till The End Of Time for last since a certain event in that game will spoil the rest of the series for you to the point that it will change the way you perceive the other games if you play it first. In a way it is kind of like the Devil May Cry/YS series in the sense that the order of release isn’t the order the story is told. While each game’s story is its own self-contained saga, they all take place in the same universe during different time periods. Final Fantasy IV also had space travel near the end of the game and Final Fantasy V had the multiple worlds idea before Star Ocean did. Star Ocean essentially mixes the two together and that’s part of the reason why I love the series despite its flaws, granted it’s not the only series to do this as Chrono Trigger mixed science fiction and fantasy together before Star Ocean was even a thing. I’ve always been more of a swords and sorcery kind of guy. So if you are expecting this game to be Xenosaga levels of science fiction then you may be disappointed but for me, this is the perfect setting as I’m pretty mixed on science fiction since as much as I love the idea of space travel and space ships but fighting with guns, not so much. Though I would argue that it’s more of a fantasy setting with a bit of science fiction sprinkled on top as opposed to a perfect blend of both science fiction and fantasy. Thematically speaking, the Star Ocean series is supposed to be a hybrid of both science fiction and fantasy. Oh boy here we go, time for the comparison to end comparisons, which Star Ocean game is the best? Despite being a huge fan of the Star Ocean series, even I have to admit that it isn’t the most consistent series out there in terms of quality and quite frankly, just about every game in the series has its fair share of flaws, some of which can be extremely aggravating to deal with. ![]() Leinweber is also director of the Barker Welfare Foundation National Board and owner of Briar Leaf Golf Course just outside La Porte. “What has has done for Friendship Botanical Gardens is just one example of the commitment he has made to our community,” he said.

He then told me that he would call me once the delay was lifted. 20 or so minutes later guy 2 comes to me and says theres a delay and that the gun was mine regardless. I told him Ill wait till they could figure it out. While going through the application process the helper guy 2 asked me why do I think my application is taking so long. Why would you let someone do the process if he didnt know what he was doing? Another guy came up and tried helping.

If I had more men like him on my team at my job, It would make my life so much easier. He didn't pressure me into a sale or put a firearm into my hands I didn't want, he didn't try to sell me an overpriced case when I just wanted a basic one, he was professional without being phony, and answered all of my clearly idiotic questions because I can fix/diagnose car problems, but knew only the basics of firearms. I have to say that Matt, who worked on April 20th of 2020, was the exact perfect person I wanted to deal with. So I waited until some people left, ran my credit card, and went home with a brand new Smith and Wesson AR-15. And because of social distancing, when I came back in to buy my firearm, a different employee very politely told me they were over capacity. Very professional, with a good selection. Forty plus minutes later, I came back in and Matt sold me my firearm. Matt offered to keep it behind the counter while I called them. My bank wouldn't let the charge go through, even though I had enough available credit. I was going to go with this rifle, but after seeing an iron sight would cost about as much as the rifle that came stock with a laser sight, Matt basically convinced me without even trying to buy the aforementioned laser sight rife. After showing me a good option for my intended purpose, that of home defense, I pointed out what I liked on the rack and he showed it to me. So then I told him my ideal second choice. Considering what I was pining for was a 70+ year old Russian rifle, I wasn't surprised. While I was looking to purchase a modern rifle, I told him what I truly desired, but he told me that they wouldn't be able to get it. He asked what I was looking for, and I told him what I wanted. My girlfriend and I went in, and were cordially greeted by an employee named Matt. And what better way to do so then buying a firearm. So I have a stimulus check, and as a red blooded American patriot, I knew it was my duty to stimulate the economy. We sure can!

The song may be simply but it isn’t barebones by any means. Dad Vibes Is Still A Worthy Comeback Track The music video is also a ton of fun and features edits of Fred from Limp Bizkit’s 2021 Lollapalooza set (how could it not, right!?). The song if simply a fun time, and I think that is the version of Limp Bizkit 2021 needs. The short and sweet track features a fun flow from Fred with some hilarious lyrics that never fail to catch my attention. Now about the song itself, it isn’t the most exciting track in the world, but it is a ton of fun. While ideally I believe the band should have released new music sooner to capitalize on this viralness at the time, I think it was still marketing genius at its finest. The band once again had all eyes on them, and this was good timing too, as they were finally about to release new music for the first time in years. Limp Bizkit took over the internet and social media after Fred debuted his now iconic (and likely popular Halloween costume appropriately enough) “Dad Vibes” look. This is also where Fred Durst proved he is the king of marketing even in the modern age. The track is was originally debuted over the PA at the end of Limp Bizkit’s iconic – and incredibly viral – Lollapalooza 2021 set. Next up is the hilarious comeback track “Dad Vibes”. You can check out my initial reaction to the nu-metal banger here. At the very worst, “Still Sucks” gave us some of the best Limp Bizkit songs ever (or at least in the last decade by default). I wouldn’t have thought that the band haven’t released material in years, as these two songs make it seem like the band never left or lost their groove. Both this track and it’s predecessor sound like they were crafted from an AI designed to craft the perfect Limp Bizkit song. “Dirty Rotten Bizkit” does a lot right, and I find it charming and fun. It sounds comfortingly “90’s” and I can get with that. They are calm and allow the listener to prepare for the next onslaught of riffs and record scratches. I don’t mind these parts in the slightest. Also like “Out Of Style” before it, the song features a slower more relaxed segment. Despite releasing on Halloween, this album sounds perfect for a wild summer ride. It is one of the best clean (sung) choruses by Fred ever. The chorus is nostalgic yet fresh at the same time. The verses feature his iconic raps that feel like they could fit on their biggest records (like “Out Of Style” before it). Fred’s vocals on the track are also energetic and youthful. The track opens up with some funky record scratching from DJ Lethal and Wes immediately brings in one of his best riffs in ages. The song is the exact type of dirty track fans of the band crave. Limp Bizkit keep the energy going with the appropriately titled track “Dirty Rotten Bizkit”. Fortunately the band do keep the momentum going with the next track, which is what I consider the next best track from “Still Sucks”. This track is the exactly what comes to my mind when I think of Limp Bizkit. I wouldn’t bat an eye if someone told me this track was from the band’s biggest record. I find the track to be one of the band’s best songs ever. ![]() The perfect rap flow, the fun lyrics and style, the scratches and classic hip-hop influence, the heavy and bouncy riff, and more. It has everything any fan of the band could ever want. I find the track to easily be the best song on the entire record. ![]() The only issue with “ Out Of Style” is it sets the expectations of the album far too high. These sections allow the main riff to be utilized to kick up the energy every time it bounces back to the forefront. Despite the band being at their best when absolutely belligerent, these sections of the song are fine. The song features mellow verses with an atmospheric riff and drum work. One of the first words uttered in the track is Fred yelling “DJ Lethal!” before the funky scratches kick in and assist Wes Borland’s bouncy riff. I can’t think of a better way they could have possibly opened up their comeback record.Īside from the iconic riff, the track also features some of frontman Fred Durst’s best raps and flow to date and fresh record scratches from the famous DJ Lethal. My excitement was immeasurable when the album opened up with a familiar and addictive riff. The track was teased for years and occasionally appeared on some of the band’s live setlists. For those unfamiliar, the bouncy main riff comes from the original track “Wastoid”. “Out Of Style” is the track Limp Bizkit fans have been waiting years for. ![]() Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.

While ‘Paranoid’ itself may not be recognizable to many, songs like “Iron Man” and “Paranoid” prove that Black Sabbath created something truly iconic with this record. “Rat Salad”, ‘Paranoid’s only instrumental track, features an extended drum solo showcasing just how talented Bill Ward is. “Electric Funeral” and “Hand of Doom” serve as early inspirations for the soon-to-be “doom metal” genre with their slower tempos and thicker sound. ![]() ‘Paranoid’ The rest of the album is equally as unique, with songs like “Iron Man” (the band’s most popular song) and “Jack The Stripper/Fairies Wear Boots” playing into Black Sabbath’s odd lyrical style and heavy driving instruments. “Planet Caravan” comes next, and is unlike every other song on the album, utilizing clean guitars, heavily modulated vocals and a small percussion set to evoke a psychedelic vibe. Clocking in at around three minutes, “Paranoid” is much faster and to the point than most of Black Sabbath’s other works. Immediately following “War Pigs” is “Paranoid”, the titular tune that was recorded as no more than an afterthought. As the original title for the album, “War Pigs” opens strong with Ozzy Osbourne’s unique vocals playing opposite Tony Iommi’s and Geezer Butler’s guitar and bass riffs respectively. ‘Paranoid’ opens with an eight minute track criticizing the then-current Vietnam War called “War Pigs”. This range can be seen clearly in the first three songs of the album. ‘ Paranoid’ contains a wide range of musical styles, from the beginnings of doom metal to the relaxed sounds of psychedelic rock. Featuring a powerhouse of thunderous drums, crunchy bass and distorted guitars, ‘Paranoid’ set itself apart from the rest of music at the time, and in the process gave Black Sabbath several songs that are recognizable to this day. Black Sabbath’s sophomore record, ‘ Paranoid’, is truly what propelled the band to its iconic status. ![]() Their self-titled record in 1970 set the standard for what countless other metal musicians would build upon for years to come. There is no band more influential to the genre of metal than Black Sabbath. |
