Removing temporary rawtherapee files11/3/2022
How did you install darktable? If it is an appimage or a snap it won't work. Last edited by monkeybrain20122 July 26th, 2020 at 06:53 PM. But be warned that this way you'll lose all customizations for gimp. config folder (note the "." in front) open it, find the GIMP folder inside and delete it and anything that has to do with rawtherapee. Open the file manager, press ctrl+h to show hidden files, find the. If you install darktable and gimp "normally" and it still doesn't work, you can "factory reset" gimp by deleting it configuration folder. #REMOVING TEMPORARY RAWTHERAPEE FILES SOFTWARE#So darktable has to be installed in the "normal" way for gimp to find it, i.e either from the repo or a ppa (installed through apt or synaptic, or the non snap package in the software store) Gimp installed as snap or flatpak also won't work, but gimp appimage + darktable "normal" works. gimp doesn't work with external programs called by wrapper scripts, installed as flatpak or snap, or appimages. It may be a snap if you grab it just off the software store. But I don’t know why I can’t change the preferred plug-in in GIMP.Īny ideas? Many thanks for your help.How did you install darktable? If it is an appimage or a snap it won't work. I assume there is still part of rawtherapee in my system that I haven’t found and deleted. I keep getting the same error messages when I try to open a raw file in GIMP. I change the raw image importer under preferences, but when I close and open GIMP it is back to wanting to use rawtherapee. I have GIMP and DarkTable each working OK independantly, but GIMP keeps trying to use rawtherapee as its raw image importer plug-in. I tried to get rid of rawtherapee, by deleting all the files I could find – there is apparently (?) no uninstall process for appimages. I decided also that DarkTable is a better editor than rawtherapee, so decided to go with that. Raw Panasonic plug-in could not open image” “Opening '/home/brian/Pictures/2020/SSCC_BinalongBooroowa_16July20-58.rw2' failed: “Calling error for procedure 'gimp-file-load':Įrror opening file /tmp/gimp/2.10/gimp-temp-33081.tif: No such file or directory” When I tried to open a raw file in GIMP I got error messages: I installed rawtherapee(appimage) but I couldn’t get GIMP to work with that. Now to open raw files in gimp install darktable.Thanks for this. #REMOVING TEMPORARY RAWTHERAPEE FILES UPDATE#I think ufraw itself is also dead, it has not seen any update since 2015 and apparently works only with gimp <= 2.6, and it recommends 2.4 on its website. The package is not in 20.04 apparently because it is dead upstream and doesn't build with gtk3. The easiest way to implement this feature request is to have a tool in the palettes called “Local Adjustments” which doesn’t feature anything more than a disable/enable switch.That means you are missing the dependency gtkimageview. I only discovered that function now, and will now use it always to create partial presets. The only way to create a preset without LocalParameters section is to start with an empty preset and then edit it and add the tools one by one. Result: For me in step 4 the local adjustments are always removed.

Accounting debit credit chart11/3/2022 #Accounting debit credit chart manualWhether this system is manual or automated, the heart of the system will contain the basic processing tools: accounts, debits and credits, journals, and the general ledger. In general terms, an accounting system is a system where transactions and events are reliably processed and summarized into useful financial statements and reports. In other words, some transaction logging process must be in place. The system must be sufficient to fuel the preparation of the financial statements, and be capable of maintaining retrievable documentation for each and every transaction. It is imperative that a business develop a reliable accounting system to capture and summarize its voluminous transaction data. Even if the business could manage to figure out what its financial statements were supposed to contain, it probably could not systematically describe the transactions that produced those results. As transactions occurred, they would be communicated to the department and the marker board would be updated. Imagine if a real business tried to keep up with its affairs this way! Perhaps a giant marker board could be set up in the accounting department. “Before” and “after” examples were used to develop the illustrations. The previous chapter showed how transactions caused financial statement amounts to change.

Burning trash without creating pollutin11/3/2022 And the European Parliament has urged member nations to minimize incineration. Not only can trash-burning plants no longer get subsidies designated for environmentally beneficial projects, they have also been cut off from other major EU funding streams. That footprint helped prompt EU officials to drop incineration from a draft of important green investment guidelines, known as the “sustainable finance taxonomy,” expected to be formally adopted this month. Overall, European incinerators pumped out an estimated 95 million tons of carbon dioxide in 2018, about 2 percent of total emissions. It found that British incinerators’ power generation was more carbon-intensive than electricity from natural gas, and second only to coal. The climate concerns are newer, crystallized in a report the consulting firm Eunomia produced for ClientEarth, an advocacy group. Dangerous emissions such as dioxin and particulate matter sometimes go unreported, and enforcement is often porous, environmentalists say. But critics note many nations lack the resources for the best pollution-control systems. Wealthy nations such as Sweden and Denmark, which rely heavily on waste-to-energy plants, say their sophisticated emissions treatment systems mean such concerns are misplaced. Worries that incinerators sicken those who live near them - disproportionately poor, and people of color - have long dogged the industry. “Once you build the beast, you’ve got to keep feeding it.” “The way incineration works, it skews the economics of waste by its very existence,” Elliott-Smith said. The country already burns nearly 45 percent of its waste - more than it recycles, the Channel 4 show Dispatches recently reported. Sinking billions of pounds into new incinerators now could lock Britain into decades of garbage-burning and make it harder for cash-strapped local authorities to boost recycling and composting rates, she said. While she also argues the new system is too weak to shrink Britain’s carbon footprint, including incinerators could, in principle, put a cost on their emissions. In a case scheduled to be heard in the High Court this month, Elliott-Smith contends Britain violated its Paris Agreement commitments by omitting the waste-to-energy sector from the market it created when it left the European greenhouse gas emissions trading system as part of its divorce from the E.U. Plastic, hard to recycle and ubiquitous in garbage, is made from fossil fuel derivatives and emits carbon dioxide when burned, accounting for a substantial chunk of incineration’s climate damage. “Burning plastic in a climate emergency, that’s insane,” said Georgia Elliott-Smith, an environmental engineer and Extinction Rebellion activist who is suing the British government over its decision to exclude incinerators from its new emissions trading system. Without a more decisive change of course, critics argue, that adds up to an existential threat both to Europe’s promise to slash carbon emissions to net-zero by midcentury and its dreams of a “circular economy” in which reuse and recycling largely take the place of waste disposal. Meanwhile, across the English Channel, post-Brexit Britain is charging ahead with proposals for dozens of new garbage-burning projects. And, even without EU financial support, new plants are in the works, many in southern and eastern European countries that have historically incinerated less than long-standing waste-to-energy proponents such as Germany, the Netherlands, and the Scandinavian nations. The EU is in the process of cutting off funding for new incinerators, but there’s little sign most existing ones - currently consuming 27 percent of the bloc’s municipal waste - will close any time soon. For decades, Europe has poured millions of tons of its trash into incinerators each year, often under the green-sounding label “waste to energy.” Now, concerns about incineration’s outsized carbon footprint and fears it may undermine recycling are prompting European Union officials to ease their long-standing embrace of a technology that once seemed like an appealing way to make waste disappear.

Nowhere to run contraption maker11/2/2022 When used properly, both routinely produce rich, tasty coffee, and people seem to appreciate the hands-on brewing process, which can produce a feeling of accomplishment and enhanced control over the final product. #NOWHERE TO RUN CONTRAPTION MAKER MANUAL#Included the Chemex Classic and Mueller Austria French Press to give users viable manual alternatives to standard automated coffee machines. Removed several items from the list, including the AdirChef Grab N’ Go (the design of its power button could pose a fire hazard), the Hamilton Beach Black (consistently weak, flavorless coffee), the Hamilton Beach Flex (multiple reports that the unit only lasts a few months before breaking down), and the Bunn Velocity (utilizes a fast brewing process that tends to result in watered-down, tepid coffee). In addition to the fact that it operates at the optimal temperature, we also noted that users tend to highlight the ability of the Technivorm Moccamaster to produce thick, smooth coffee with little to no leftover sediment, something that many models claim to do but few actually accomplish. For those who want "Just coffee," it's tough to beat. It's inexpensive, durable, keeps coffee hot, and has features like automatic shut-off and a sneak-a-cup function. The top choice is the Mueller Austria Ultra because it does the main restriction for this category, classic black coffee, really well. A dishwasher-safe, stainless steel French press that can froth milk deserves a high spot. Pour-over evangelists may be disgusted that the Secura French Press outranks the Chemex Classic, but the fact is that the difference between the Secura French Press and your average French press (its VORP, if you will) is greater than the difference between the Chemex Classic and the average pour-over. Ultimately, a lot of these makers belong to categories of their own, and those categories should be considered when ranking them. The difference in cost between these two may be the deciding factor if you're not enough of a connoisseur to tell the difference in flavor. The Ninja CE251 is relatively inexpensive, but annoying if you have to move it around, and the Technivorm Moccamaster is fancy, but pricey. The ability to make single-serve java is why the Cuisinart SS-15 and Hamilton Beach 49980A are just hanging on and remain on the list.īut the main concern here is coffee, and the debate is between quality versus value. If you want something that makes a lot of drinks, the Keurig K-Cafe Special Edition, DeLonghi Nespresso Vertuo, and Ninja Auto-iQ are good options. If a machine does more than that, it's a plus, but you won't find any fancy espresso makers here. The main criteria for inclusion in this category is the ability to brew coffee - not espresso or flavored drinks, but standard black coffee.

Spelling alphabet code english11/1/2022 Some people might remember the TV series Adam-12, where the "Adam" in the name derives from a spelling alphabet used by police forces.įor ordinary civilians (like me), learning a spelling alphabet has limited applicability in everyday life. Zulu time (from the Z in zone) is jargon for GMT. The term Roger to mean gotcha comes from a spelling alphabet in use in the 20s and 30s, in which it stood for the letter R, which in turn was shorthand for "received." Along similar lines, Wilco is spelling-alphabet shorthand for the W in will comply. The derogatory military slang term Charlie to refer to the Viet Cong is said to come from Victor Charlie. The famous "Checkpoint Charlie" in the days of the Berlin Wall was actually Checkpoint C. There has been some small influence of spelling alphabets in everyday English. For example, Golf is, I assume, a more recognizable term internationally than George. But the current selection of words is understandable as the result of the internationalization effort. This was particularly noticeable to me as I was learning the alphabet, because exceptions - Golf, Hotel, November - were harder to learn and had an odd effect on the rhythm of the spelling. Another notable feature is that most of the words are disyllable trochees (AL-pha, BRA-vo, CHAR-lie, etc.). To that purpose, there are language-specific versions of this alphabet (like German) that have extra words for letters like ä, ö, and ü.Īs I've been learning this, it struck me that the current alphabet consists almost entirely of multi-syllabic words contrast this alphabet with the earlier one above. An additional challenge was to accommodate letters that were not in English. The challenge in developing the alphabet was to meet the criteria I listed earlier and to use words that non-English speakers would be able to speak and understand and that that did not have wildly different pronunciations in different languages. This was adopted in the 1950s and is still standard today here are the letters: After WWII, American and Western European countries settled on what's known as the NATO phonetic alphabet (as I say, not a correct term). Over time it became obvious that it would be useful to standardize on a single such alphabet. During WWII, for example, the US military used a spelling alphabet that began with Able-Baker-Charlie, which might be familiar still to people who went through that conflict (or who love movies set in that time period). Spelling alphabets evolved independently in different branches of the military and in different countries. One of the early English phonetic alphabets ( from 1913) used these words: For example, you wouldn't want to use A=Able and T=Table or B=Bear and F=Fare (or Fair). It must also use words that are phonetically distinct from one another. Your alphabet must use simple, short words. Imagine for a moment that you've been assigned to come up with a phonetic alphabet for English. (As those of us of a certain age can remember, pre-digital radio was notoriously subject to static and interference.) Signaling individual letters had of course long been established in the navy, and so spelling alphabets evolved to have a distinct word for each letter. The idea was further developed with the spread of radio technology. This was an early version:Īck Beer C D E F G H I J K L Emma N O Pip Q R Esses Toc U Vic W X Y Z Initial attempts in the British Army in the 19th century simply assigned alternative names to letters that were frequently misheard. Since the military is very interested in communication, and because they often work under auditorially challenging conditions (such as, say, during battle), spelling alphabets have mostly come from the military. #Spelling alphabet code english license#Even if you've never been in the military or gotten a radio license or studied flying, you've probably heard people use a spelling alphabet on TV or in a movie.Īs you can imagine, spelling alphabets were developed for precisely the reason I noted - spelling out loud is fraught, what with all the letters that sound similar (e.g., B, E, P, T, D) and the many vagaries of auditory communication. A spelling alphabet consists of words (Alfa, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, etc.) that represent alphabetic characters. This might be one reason that I've developed an interest in the idea of so-called spelling alphabets (frequently referred to, incorrectly, as phonetic alphabets). Even spelling it out doesn't help - P-O-P-E - and I find myself exaggerating the aspiration on those plosives. "Hope?" This is particularly true over the telephone. My name - Pope - is surprisingly easy to mishear. Mike Pope, a technical editor at Microsoft, writes:

Soundcloud listen later11/1/2022 If the audio is a podcast, the process involves subscribing to the show and then hunting its archives to find the appropriate episode. If you’re browsing your Facebook feed and find a five-minute radio segment, shifting it to a mobile playlist typically means downloading and transferring the file, or bookmarking the URL and browsing back later. Only a bare majority of 55% of saves on Pocket are what the company classifies as “articles.” “We’d really like Instapaper to be a place where you can save any kind of content, ranging from the Amazon URL to Wikipedia and everything in between,” says the company’s general manager, Brian Donohue. “So you can see how quickly we’re ramping up,” Weiner says.Īs they’ve grown, both Pocket and Instapaper have expanded their focus from text to incorporate a variety of web pages and a growing segment of video. The simple concept has become only more important as the various screens we interact with have multiplied, and the value proposition has become not just “read it later” but “read it on your smartphone or tablet.” Of the billion items saved since Pocket began in 2007, half have come in the last 12 months. On the other: an easy way to read the bookmarked items, with an interface that renders all articles in a consistent, becalmed interface of black and white text, and places them in a single, downloadable queue. On the one hand: an easy way to bookmark, through the click of a button added to both web browsers and platforms like Twitter. Their advantage over email is a service with two sides. “If we can make it as easy to consume as the radio–you know, press the button and go–then it’s going to bridge the gap to mainstream.” “The RSS system is kind of antiquated,” says Stitcher CEO and cofounder Noah Shanok. “Listen Later” aims to convert some of the other 99% by offering something that Apple hasn’t, and that individual shows can’t: An app that seamlessly unites individual segments with an app that can stream them. But it’s a distant second Stitcher doesn’t disclose figures but has been installed on only 1% of smartphones, according to Edison Research. When it comes to digital listening to spoken word audio, Stitcher claims to be in second place only to the podcast downloads that happen through iTunes. Stitcher App We have said for many years that our biggest competitor is people who still email themselves links.įor Stitcher, it’s a play for more listeners. Click the button, close the page, and when you open the Stitcher app, a “Listen Later” playlist will contain all the audio you bookmarked. #Soundcloud listen later OfflineIt’s part of a pilot project hatched over the last few months by on-demand radio app Stitcher, now operational on just a handful of websites in the podcast and radio world: the Financial Times, Fox News, Science Friday, Stor圜orps, Smodcast Network, and Heritage Radio.īut Stitcher intends to spread it across their network of more than 20,000 shows as a better way to knit together the frenetic pecking we do on the web with the continuous attention we muster offline to make sense of the spoken word. |
