![]() ![]() Whenever a new UDID is being added, you need to create a new version of your application.Also, a developer needs to acquire the UDID of each device to share iOS app. This distribution process is limited to 100 iPhones, 100 iPad, and 100 iPods touch installations.It requires an Apple Developer Account which costs around $99 per year.There are few important points which you need to know before going for this deployment option: After that just install the app on the device. But you still need to add the UDID of each device. Once the app binary has been exported, it can be distributed with MDM (Mobile device management). Your ad hoc profile guarantees that test versions of your app are not copied and distributed as per your approval.Įxport your application through Xcode option. App binary won’t run on any regular device until it is registered in the ways discussed above. To make sure that the binary work on user’s device, developer require to add the UDID of each device and register them to Apple Member Center. In this process, the app developer has to deliver the app binary to each user through e-mail or download URL. Ad- hoc deployment:Īpple provides an Ad-hoc app deployment option for the developers who want to share iOS app for the private beta or a temporary distribution. Some of the alternatives of sharing app on Apple App store are discussed below: 1. In case the app approval process is getting troublesome for you, then, there are various other alternatives to share iOS app. You can also find the reasons behind app rejection by Apple App Store. If your app has any performance issues, buggy or spammed, it will surely be rejected. The approval process makes sure that your app follows proper guidelines. In few cases, it even takes months for the apps to get an approval. There might be a huge delay in the approval process sometimes. Although being an intuitive platform for the developers, the app approval process can be a bit tricky. Publishing your app on the iOS store takes your app to a huge customer base. It makes your app available to every Apple user and it even helps in monetizing the app by setting in-app purchase and assigning a purchase price. The most common platform for iOS app distribution is Apple App Store. No one can deny that the user reach of iOS store is exceptional and the services offered by it has their own perks. Well, when it comes to app publishing, the obvious option which comes to our mind is the Apple App Store. The motive behind app distribution is to share iOS app with the right audience. Now that you have created an iOS app and are ready to embark on its journey, let’s discuss the process of app publishing. ![]()

![]() ![]() Contrary to popular belief, the project was overseen by Microsoft Game Studios Franchise Development Group and not by Bungie Studios (though they were given a significant degree of creative control). The Halo novel project was initiated with the intent of establishing an "expanded universe" for future content. 2.9 Battle Born: A Halo Young Adult Novel Series.The levels are simply more fun when you are holding a beach and your buddy has a swarm of his Hornets (the flying, fighter-type of units) enter into the airspace in the nick of time. If I had my say, I would opt to play the game with a friend, whenever possible. Co-op is not the game's strength, but it by no means is a weak point. Often, my partner and I would find ourselves under fire, but because one of us could coordinate the army and the other could focus on upgrading or creating more troops, the foes we faced were never much of a challenge, so long as communication was taking place. The greatest highlight of having two players is the ability to control twice as many troops. The game is strong, in that the features added are never game-changing, so if you happen to stroll into a later campaign level, the formula you learned so long ago still holds true, meaning you are an asset to your partner. If your friend has played further ahead than you and they are hosting, you can play their levels, the same works in reverse. You play through the same levels, with your partner, choosing to skip scenes together. If you are a fan of the Halo series, you will be pleased to find out that the campaign formula is exactly the same. I forgot the power I was to face, forgot my excitement to survive on a campaign level, and focused on the tiny troops I was to help survive and their mundane going-on's each mission as formulaic as the next, saturated with cheesy writing and characters that would feel more at home in a TV space sitcom rather than in the Halo universe.Īfter spending some time in the campaign, it was time to try the co-op campaign. This trailer held strong in my mind as I began the campaign, with early cut scenes showing the pure power of the enemy that I was to face. However, upon playing the game my strong interest in the new foe, Atriox, was depleted very quickly as missions made him seem approachable and frankly, beatable. The trailer did an amazing job on conveying a threat of new scale and intelligence for the Halo universe. I was first introduced to the game by the E3 trailer in 2016. It is an RTS, a clean and simple Real Time Strategy, and that is all it achieves even when it tries to make the player feel pressured or invested. I simply did not, knowing that the looming evil could be out maneuvered by systematic and proper base-building and army-deployment, get that feeling. Halo Wars 2 was released 8 years after the original Halo Wars, and, on a completely different console, but that simply does not seem to lend itself to any kind of interesting or even noteworthy changes to the game. In the case of some game series life they will fall from grace and lose their ability to innovate and improve on what may be an interesting or genuinely good idea or series of ideas so is the case for Halo Wars 2. Assassin's Creed improved on its interesting concept, by making climbing, swimming and movement a joy in the historic success that was Assassin's Creed 2. Titanfall 2 featured a campaign as well as tightening the features that made the first so good. ![]() I played through campaign mission after mission, trying to shake the feeling and find my 'Ah-ha!' moment that would set the game apart, letting me tell my friends and associates of the special moments I wanted to share with them, but, those moments never came, or, rather, they never came in 2009 with the launch of the original Halo Wars.Īs sequels are released, we often see improvements rather than groundbreaking innovation. Early on in Halo Wars 2, I kept getting the feeling that I had lived this all before in an almost dream-like way. ![]() ![]() ![]() Later,could not make transactions after a while, even walking in person inside a foreign branch of ICBC, having accounts both in the same name in a China's local branch of ICBC and at the said foreigner branch, and firstly to have an account in a foreign branch is not easy, so thigs are getting hard indeed for wechatPay abroad.Įven my "personal" wechat, in a phone that is decadely old, with decadely old wechat account, has suffered a rather strange and suspiciously unexpected cut on the maximum amount of financial transaction limit. Many years ago I helped a cooperating individual and had to buy a Phone inside China, could not get Phone device from abroad to pay things with WechatPay by any means. ![]() In Zhejiang province and other industrial hubs Alipay is widely used, even by the little cigarrette shop seller, but most places this is most WechatPay's territorial waters, yes, maybe because Alibaba's birth of place is Zhejiang. Life without wechat in China is ok, but wechatPay helps a lot. wechat pay have been a hassle to use for at foreigner fields for some years now. I saw by the other comments this is not related to wechat pay. When I moved back the states, I became cashless again (having been cashless before moving to China in Europe and the USA). So that was the end of 2016 when I left, more than a couple of years, so I’m a bit out of date. Since as a foreigner I was never able to use wechat pay myself (the rules kept changing, but when I tried early on they couldn’t do anything without my Chinese ID number), I used to have to use UnionPay and cash for all of my financial transactions. So ues, even if they aren’t using cash in big Chinese cities, they aren’t using it in USA cities either. The USA was already way ahead of the game on non-cash payments (via checks and then cards) and that has only accelerated since (not as fast as china’s move to mobile payments, but starting from a much higher level). ![]() Those famous shanghai man purses weren’t just for show (what if you had to buy a car)! The current mobile payment system is a huge improvement, but many people still have to use cash, especially the poorer and underbanked.Īnyways, think about how much cash you use in the states? I think I last withdrew cash 6 months ago? And I haven’t used all of that yet, since there is maybe one Asian bakery I know of that charges for using a CC. That means I used to have to bag around 20k RMB/3 months to pay rent, not fun since the biggest bill was the 100 kuai note (it got better later). Also keep in mind that until recently, most transactions were cash, no checks and even bank transfers were hard. ![]() The differences between a 1st tier city and a 3rd tier city are huge, and there are many kids 3rd tier cities than 1st. Facebook, Twitter and google have arguably thrown away any chance they had of doing universal payments through their poor ability to ensure trust - far from it.Ĭhina is a huge country. The retail economy is being run on these systems and that trust is critical. WeChatPay works because of the higher level of trust the app enforces. I found it easier to sign up to wechat(pay) than TransferWise, who have 3 potential authentication methods and none work as advertised in my country. Cash is only as a backstop, or perhaps to ask someone to send you wechatpay balance. At a large high quality restaurant we were at yesterday we could not pay them at the table so we went to the checkout and the scanned.Ĭredit cards are not useful except for pulling cash out of ATMs or at really western stores. Wechatpay is accepted everywhere- either by you sending money to the buyer (smaller retailers, requires your phone to be online) or by the retailer scanning you (larger retailers, you can be offline).Į.g. It’s hard but we did it a week or two back for our current travels in China. ![]() ![]() ![]() Most interesting out of them all is the transporter room. Numerous lighting panel designs were used. ![]() This prevents light from glowing through to the outside of the hull. Remember to spray your inner hull area Flat Black before permanently installing the floor and ceiling panels. Ceiling panel cutouts are then covered with clear styrene misted with pearl white. The center section of the upper hull ceiling is cut out completely to provide wiring access to multiple LED's. The ceiling panels are installed, along with the bulkheads, and are marked for ceiling panel lighting. The smooth bulkheads are located in the center of the ship with the diamond plated sections separating the flight deck, transporter room, and the conference/living-sick bay area.Ĭonsiderations must be given to the lighting panels for the ceiling and the transporter pad. On my bulkheads, I elected to get a bit fancy and used both smooth and diamond plated styrene sheeting. The bulkheads are held in the hull by using “L”-beam styrene from Evergreen Plastics. Using thin cardboard and a ruler, you eventually find bulkheads that will fit. The next step of designing bulkhead templates is the most time consuming. Also, do the same to create a floor in the lower half of the hull. Inset a piece of sheet styrene to fit the interior ceiling from front to rear. In this article, I will share with you the method I used to achieve an easy, yet realistic interior.įirst off, you need to segment the Runabout into 5 basic sections: the Flight Deck, Transporter Area, Power Distribution Bay, Living/Sick Bay, and Conference Room. ![]() Image: Bulkheads divide the interior sectionsĪt this point you can make a determination on how complicated you want to make this project. Refer to the Deep Space 9 Technical Manual for some excellent schematics of the Rio Grande's interior. Why Ertl never offered some half decent innards is a mystery, but scratch building one is not that tough. After opening the box and looking at the hull halves, I could tell this kit was just begging for an interior. The AMT/Ertl kit became an interesting project.

CTC timer interrupts are triggered when the counter reaches a specified value, stored in the compare match register. The constant CHANGE is used to trigger the interrupt whenever the pin. By using ESP8266 interrupt, we will be able to detect changes on GPIO pins without the need to continuously poll GPIO pins. The Arduino sketch only records a signal from the sensor when it detects a CHANGE. Each of the timers has a counter that is incremented on each tick of the timer's clock. ESP8266 Interrupts and Timers Arduino IDE PIR Motion Sensor Example In this tutorial, we will learn to use interrupts and timers of ESP8266 NodeMCU using Arduino IDE. These Hardware Timers, using Interrupt, still work even if other functions are blocking. Step 1: Prescalers and the Compare Match Register The Uno has three timers called timer0, timer1, and timer2. NOTE - Timer interrupts may interfere with other functionality (PWM for example) depending on the timer chosen to configure.Ġ (Used by WiFi), 1 is available to configure.Į.g. This library enables you to use Interrupt from Hardware Timers on supported Arduino boards such as AVR, Mega-AVR, ESP8266, ESP32, SAMD, SAM DUE, nRF52, STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1, Teensy, Nano-33-BLE, RP2040-based boards, etc. Only fire when the configured timer overflowsĪre restricted to a small number of timers depending on the MCU hardware in use.Ĭan only set values to variables declared with VOLATILE, which ensures they arent optimized away, and can be used reliably in the ISR and in the main loop() code Need to be extremely fast to execute, and it is often best to simply set a number of flags or states within the Interrupt Service Routine, then evaluate them when required in your normal thread code in loop(). Use hardware Timer1 for finer PWM control and/or running an periodic interrupt function. ![]() ![]() ![]() Meanwhile on the island, her escape was part of a side plot to get the island disavowed so they could relocate and continue their Community in total secrecy.

After that, Butler decided to give up law for acting. His acting career began when he was approached in a London coffee shop by actor Steven Berkoff, who later appeared alongside Butler in Attila (2001), who gave him a role in a stage production of "Coriolanus" (later, Butler played Tullus Aufidius in a big screen Coriolanus (2011).

Set pieces of charcoal grilled flank steak onto warmed flour tortillas and top with your favorite toppings. Slice the beef against the grain into thin strips, or with the grain for chewier steak tacos. Cover the steak with foil and rest for 5 minutes to let the juices redistribute. I use my Thermoworks Thermapen ONE instant read thermometer (affiliate link, my friends!). The internal temperature should read 125 degrees F when measured with a meat thermometer for more rare to medium-rare. Grill the flank steak for 6-7 minutes, then flip and grill another 4-5 minutes. Remove steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Spread the fiery coals out for better heat distribution. Heat your charcoal grill to medium-high heat. Refrigerate and marinate at least 4 hours, or overnight for better flavor penetration. Or, add the steak to a large sealable baggie and pour in the marinade. Add the steak to the large bowl with the marinade and massage the marinade into the meat. Whisk together the marinade ingredients in a large bowl until well combined.

Most cooks today choose to prepare their beef tacos on the flat top grill, eschewing the charcoal flavor. It is Mexican food at its simplest and most flavorful, though you're unlikely to find it in Mexican restaurants. It is typically a simple dish with chicken or beef lightly seasoned then grilled over a wood fire or charcoal grill, served up with nothing more than a bit of salsa and fresh squeeze of lime.
