Transistor radios at radio shack8/19/2023 ![]() What we’ve realized over the years is that these radios are not as rare or scarce as once thought. They predate eBay and the quoted prices are often higher than present day values. Most of the price guides on the market were released well over ten years ago during the first “wave” of transistor radio collecting. I suggest spending some time on the internet or scanning the pages of the few transistor radio price guides to research makes and models. Have fun and buy radios that appeal to your personal tastes. Sure, you’ll want some key radios but make sure you collect what you like. ![]() Although the main focus of this article is to broaden your knowledge base, make sure you don’t just collect for investment or get caught up in only possessing what are considered “must haves”. By your fourth radio you will be considered a “collector” and will be hooked! There will be no turning back from the appeal of these mid-century, technical and artistic marvels.īefore spending too much money I recommend you take some time, do your homework and educate yourself. Well, be warned! If you buy one transistor radio it will most likely grow to two, then three. Perhaps you recently saw a picture of a cool looking pocket radio from the early 1960’s and were reminded of your carefree, youthful days? Maybe it was the pastel colors or atomic aged designs that caught your eye? Or the chrome highlights that attracted your attention? Nonetheless, you find yourself actively seeking them out at the local flea market or surfing eBay for a good deal. Michael Jack, whose personal Flickr website is a member of our Hall of Fame, is a collector of vintage transistor radios.

Omni pro binaural microphone8/19/2023 I’m guessing that’s for two reasons – one, a marketing push around VR recording, but two, likely some system-on-a-chip developments that make this possible. There are a bunch of these microphones showing up all at once. That may prove useful for production applications other than just “stuff for VR.” Just like your computer can become a virtual studio full of gear, that single mic can – in theory, anyway – act like more than one microphone. So these spherical mics could model different classic mics, in different arrangements, making it seem as though you recorded with multiple mics when you only used one. These sorts of mic capsules are useful in modeling different microphones, since you can adjust the capture pattern in software after the fact. ![]() ![]() Once you have a mic that captures 360-degree sound, you can use it in a number of ways. The software encoding is part of what’s interesting here. The B360 ambisonics encoder from plug-in maker WAVES. (“Surround” here generally means the multichannel formats beyond just stereo ambisonics are a standard way of encoding full 360-degree sound information, so not just positioning on the same plane as your ears, but above and below, too.) Software processing so you can decode that directional audio, and (generally speaking) encode it into various surround delivery formats or ambisonic sound A mic capsule with multiple diaphragms for capturing full-spectrum sound from all directionsĢ. To do that, these solutions have two components:ġ. They’re single microphones that capture spatial sound, just like those stereo mics, but in a way that gives them more than just two-channel left/right (or mid/center) information. So all these buzzwords you’re seeing in mics all of a sudden – “virtual reality,” “three-dimensional” sound, “surround mics,” and “ambisonic mics” are really about extending this idea. Those in turn are especially useful in mobile devices. Eventually, microphone makers work out ways of building integrated capsules with two microphone diaphragms instead of just one, and you get the advantages of two mics in a single housing. And with stereo sound delivery, a bunch of two-microphone arrangements become useful ways of capturing spatial information. Plus, the very things that screw up that precise spatial perception – like reflections – contribute to the impact of sound and music in other ways.Īnd so we have stereo. Your ears and brain are able to perceive extremely accurate spatial positioning in more or less a 360-degree sphere through a wide range of frequencies. The reason this didn’t satisfy anyone is more about human perception than it is technology. And in fact, to this day there are plenty of one-mic recording rigs – think voice overs, for instance. The microphone technology itself may wind up being the future of recording with or without consumers embracing VR tech.īack in the glorious days of mono audio, a single microphone that captured an entire scene was … well, any single microphone. Once we’re talking virtual reality or you’re imagining people in goggles, Lawnmower Man style, we’re skipping ahead to the application of these mic solutions, beyond the mics themselves. ![]() Let’s back up from the hype a little bit here. ![]() But mics purporting to give you 3D recording are arriving in waves – and they could change both immersive sound and how we record music. Call it the virtual reality microphone … or just think of it as an evolution of microphones that capture sounds more as you hear them.

![]() The Internet Explorer team also introduced the new JavaScript engine for 32-bit Internet Explorer 9, codenamed Chakra, which uses Just-in-time compilation to execute JavaScript as native code. They also announced that they would increase the support greatly by the time the first Internet Explorer 9 Beta was released. ![]() This was proven to be true at MIX 10, where they demonstrated support for basic SVG markup and improved support for HTML5. Later, Microsoft announced that they had joined the W3C's SVG Working Group, which sparked speculation that Internet Explorer 9 will support the SVG W3C recommendation. Microsoft first announced Internet Explorer 9 at PDC 2009 and spoke mainly about how it takes advantage of hardware acceleration in DirectX to improve the performance of web applications and improve the quality of web typography. The Internet Explorer team focused on improving support for HTML5, CSS3, SVG, XHTML, and the user interface featuring agility and "a clean new design". Microsoft began taking features suggestions through Microsoft Connect soon after Internet Explorer 8 was released. 100/100 but incorrect rendering (no shadow on Acid3 text)ĭevelopment of Internet Explorer 9 began shortly after Internet Explorer 8 was released.

Windows XP and earlier are not supported. The system requirements for Internet Explorer 9 are Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista Service Pack 2 or Windows Server 2008 SP2 with the Platform Update. Microsoft has released Internet Explorer 9 as a major out-of-band version that is not tied to the release schedule of any particular version of Windows, unlike previous versions. Internet Explorer 9 also supports the HTML5 video and audio tags and the Web Open Font Format. It also features hardware-accelerated graphics rendering using Direct2D, hardware-accelerated text rendering using DirectWrite, hardware-accelerated video rendering using Media Foundation, imaging support provided by Windows Imaging Component, and high fidelity printing powered by the XML Paper Specification (XPS) print pipeline. It is the last of the five major web browsers to implement support for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). Internet Explorer 9 supports several CSS 3 properties, embedded ICC v2 or v4 color profiles support via Windows Color System, and has improved JavaScript performance.

Internet Explorer is freely redistributable. Something that would have been unthinkable back then. In 1998, Microsoft was hit with an antitrust suit, much of which involved their browser bundling.īy around 2004, Microsoft had destroyed most of their competition, dominated the browser market, and let IE stagnate until released Firefox.Īfter Internet Explorer 11, Microsoft supplanted IE with "Microsoft Edge" which eventually switched to the Google Chrome rendering engine. Microsoft fiercely pushed third party products to bundle Internet Explorer, and web sites to work only in Internet Explorer. Microsoft aggressively and abusively positioned Internet Explorer as part of their "browser war" to eliminate all competition. Home Internet access was still somewhat new and competed against proprietary services like CompuServe, AOL, and Microsoft's own MSN. At various points, Internet Explorer was also available for MacOS, Solaris, and HP-UX.Īt its 1995 release, Internet Explorer competed with the Mosaic web browser and Netscape Navigator. It was initially based on Spyglass Mosaic. Microsoft Internet Explorer is a web browser application created by Microsoft primarily for Microsoft Windows.

Bed bath and beyond contact center8/18/2023 “Then what happens is, somebody else comes up with a better mousetrap,” he said. While Target and Walmart stopped spending huge amounts of money on new stores to focus on online, Bed Bath & Beyond didn’t adapt as much. Sometimes that cycle cannot be maintained and results in bankruptcy, Young said. Retailers tend to close stores if they realize they are underperforming and add stores in locations that can generate more sales. Sometimes brands get out of touch – they don’t keep track of how many stores are next to each other or pay attention to how well they are doing in each market. ![]() Retail real estate goes through cycles, said Bob Young, the executive managing director at Weitzman. Overall retail, grocery stores, malls and superstores like Walmart and Target saw decreases in visitors.

Best drag cars forza 58/18/2023 Turning a JDM car into a drag queen may sound a bit laughable, but the GT-R is a pretty easy convert. This car is at number 4 because it’s amazing. But my oriental leanings have absolutely nothing to do with how high up on the list this car is. But the GT40 doesn’t let labels stop it from melting faces. This is incredible for a car that isn’t really designed as a top-speed demon. With the right tune and a good launch, this car will easily pull a 19 second mile. It has one of the highest acceleration stats in the entire game, which makes getting off the line easier than eating cake on the toilet. Here we go boys, it’s America’s time to shine. ![]() And besides, is there anything better than hearing all the losers with Lamborghinis and Ferraris rage as they’re passed up by a Beetle? 6. GT40 The Beetle can easily clock in at under 20 seconds for the one-mile drag. Combine this amount of horsepower with a low weight, and you’ve got a recipe for breaking the sound barrier. This unassuming little bugger can be upgraded to pack over 1000 horsepower. Now that you’ve laughed so hard you’ve spit out your drink, just hear me out. It’s just up to you to decide how blinding they are. The good news is that no matter what you do to it, this car will still be able to muster some absolutely blinding speeds. A good tune can be the difference between a 22 second mile and a 20 second mile. Again- you’ll need to install the proper modifications to ensure that the McLaren will be able to compete against some of the heavy hitters on our list. 8. McLaren 650SĪnother gem from our boys in the United Kingdom, the 650S will also complete the one-mile race in a hair over 20 seconds. You can easily spin out if you don’t go easy on the throttle. The only downside to this car is that off the launch, it tends to be uncooperative. When given the proper engine conversion and upgrades, this car will be able to complete the one-mile drag in just under 21 seconds. But for whatever reason, the 1999 Elise is an exception. Lotus’ are more commonly known for their amazing handling, not the ability to peel back faces. This one may come as a bit of a surprise to a lot of you. That’s MORE than enough to post some solid times. With the additions of the 6.2L V8 and twin turbos, the Camaro will be packing over 1000 horsepower. Although it rolls off the production line at a humble performance index of 481, the right modifications can turn this car into a force to be reckoned with. The 2002 Camaro is fast, loud, and American- which means it is fantastic at going extremely fast in a straight line. This car is a classic that has been a mainstay on the drag strip since Forza 3. Here are 10 cars that will satisfy that primal urge to go 0-60 in the blink of an eye. If the technical aspects of regular racing and drifting have got you down, it’s time to start drag racing. Where do they shine however- is on the drag strip. In Forza 7, there are a lot of high-horsepower beasts that don’t really get a chance to shine on the twist-and-turn heavy gameplay that dominates the game. ![]() Drifting the #43 Viper is very different from doing the same with a standard vehicle, and requires you to recalibrate your mind as to what's possible in terms of angle, speed, and precision.When you play a racing game, you usually have one thing in mind. Extreme steering angle, more torque than some celestial objects, and massive tires to offer precision control even when far beyond the limits of conventional slip angle. This professional drift machine has more of all the things that set the other Formula D cars apart from other vehicles on the Forza car list. However, if you are looking for arguably the best purpose built machine for the discipline, the #43 Dodge Viper SRT10 makes it astoundingly easy. There's even a good argument that drifting should be more about skill than performance, and that the best drifting cars are the ones that provide a challenge rather than make it easy. Drift suspension upgrades mean many vehicles can have increased steering angle just like the full-on licensed and purpose built Formula D machines in the game. You'll get many different answers if you ask what the best drift car in Forza Horizon 5 is.
