You’re going to need to disable hardware acceleration (and use software rendering) or find a third party VESA driver for improved graphical performance.įor that reason VirtualBox is probably best for Windows XP games and those that maintain good compatibility with the Windows 2000-era platform. It provides good support for Windows NT 4.0 through to Windows 10 (including XP and 7) but isn’t optimized for Windows 98. VirtualBox is a completely free and open source virtualization software from Oracle, available for Windows, Linux, macOS and Solaris. If you’re keen on going down the virtualization route, you’ll want to use one of these solutions (or to check out our other favorite virtual machine apps for Mac). Lastly, you will need a valid copy of the operating system you’re trying to install. MacBook users may also struggle with space allotment, as you’ll need to give your VM some hard drive space to function like a real computer. For this reason, older versions of Windows (like Windows 98) can run better than more modern versions like Windows 7 or 10. It’s also quite draining in terms of processing power and available memory to run two operating systems at once, as you’ll need to provide the VM with a portion of your available power. Once Terminal is open, input the following command but replace home/username/disk.cdr with the path to the file you created with Disk Utility, and home/username/disk.iso with the destination path and name for the ISO file you want to create: hdiutil convert /home/username/disk.cdr -format UDTO -o /home/username/disk.iso.You’ll find Terminal in Applications > Utilities, or just search for it using Spotlight (or a Spotlight alternative). You can convert a CDR file to ISO using a quick Terminal command. The file needs to be in ISO format though to use most of the methods to play it below. You’ll be left with a CDR file that will mount on your Mac like a hard drive or DMG file.Click Save, disabled, and begin the process.

I cannot wait for the second set, Biscuit Phonics Fun #2 to be released! Also look out for the sets featuring Little Critter Phonics Fun as well. We are delighted to take these off the shelf and read them after finishing a phonics lesson or moving on from a Bob Book choice. Much like the wonderful early readers that feature our beloved Biscuit these little readers are short and sweet with simple sentences and small words. These are so far the best beginning readers in the Phonics Fun choices that I have seen so far. Using subjects that the early reader is familiar with can make this activity all the more fun. While these are the same size and similar looking to Bob Books these are not the same and not a replacement, however I think they can be a fun add on and reinforcement. According to the National Institute of Child Health & Human Development, a child who has learned phonics has a method to recognize familiar words and “decode” unfamiliar ones.Īs I have said before, teaching a child to read is a long term project and I love the idea of little phonics readers like the Bob Books so it excites me that the HarperCollins I Can Read! series is coming out with Phonics Fun packages that are little boxes full of phonics readers.

The simple stories about everyone's favorite little yellow puppy will make the process of learning to read fun. Based on the latest research about how children learn to read, these twelve full-color books feature repeated examples of short vowel sounds and common sight words. It’s a fun way to learn to read and as a supplement for activity books for children ages 3 to 6. Enter into the world of reading with I Can Read Phonics!

The Seagram building was designed to use light as a unifying architectural feature. The Glass House_©Xavio Design Reflections from The Glass House_©Pinterest The Glass House during daytime_©Ryan Caron King Seagram Building – Ludwig Mies van der Rohe & Philip Johnson, New York Kelly believed that the blinds as a means to avoid glare would obstruct the exterior view and eliminate the feeling of spaciousness. To soften this glaze and reduce the contrast between outside brilliance and inside the darkness, Kelly used dimmers in his design to adjust the level of illumination. Simultaneously, it created a surprising contrast between brightness and shadow and heaved the eye from one focus to another. During the daytime, the penetration of natural light in the interior spaces created a continuous visual for the inside and outside. He found the art of lighting the day he designed the lighting for the Glass House. Kelly invented the principles of light in the interior and exterior space which he re-utilized in several residential and commercial spaces that displayed large extents of glass and curtain walls. ![]() ![]() He wanted to light the box in such a way that the lighting would have an effect on the interior materials as well as the psychology of the inhabitant. While designing the Glass House, Philip saw a challenge in illuminating the residential space. The element of ambient luminescence_©ERCO, Richard Kelly The element of focus glow_©ERCO The element of play of brilliants_©ERCO Glass House – Philip Johnson, New Canaan, Connecticut | Richard Kelly Looking at a few selected projects of Richard Kelly gives an idea of his theory and philosophy behind lighting design. This approach to lighting design created a balancing act for both interiors as well as exterior lighting design. Kelly was also an advocate for daylighting and believed that natural light would define the space, and artificial light would provide a secondary role in illumination. These three elements would naturally change as per the project’s criteria. The three elements that Kelly discovered were always present in his designs. Richard Kelly collaborated with architects Louis Kahn, Philip Johnson, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Eero Sarinen, to name a few, and established a modern architectural lighting context that inculcated the material palette of modernism that reflected the element of reflection – glass, steel, and concrete. He understood the light’s ability to create a sense of visual awareness and to create a space that could evoke a variety of human emotions. As a series of lighting functions, Kelly designed and changed the gear of lighting according to the perceiving observer. The question of lighting quantity was replaced by the quality of individual light. In his designs, Kelly used uniform illuminance as the central criteria by breaking away from the rigid constraints of lighting. Kelly graduated from school in 1944, and by the 1950s, his work as a lighting designer led to the recognition of the terms such as ‘focus glow’, ‘play of brilliants’, and ‘ambient luminescence’ to describe the peculiar effects in lighting design.Īs a master of qualitative lighting design, Kelly culminated a uniform concept by abstracting ideas from perception psychology and theatrical lighting. ![]() Although, people would gather around to buy lighting fixtures from Richard Kelly. An American lighting designer whose new discipline as a lighting consultant was rarely taken seriously. A pioneer of architectural lighting design, Richard Kelly established his firm in 1935, even before enrolling at the Yale School of Architecture. ![]() ![]() IF the machine is in DEP (only about 1/5th of our machines are) then Wipe and reimage from Recovery, have the PreStage Enrollment add our local support account, use Enrollment Complete to install our default user account, Pulse Secure and profiles, Bomgar, and run a couple of scripts (rename machine with serial number, etc). The workflow I'm testing now, which falls into the 'duh, why didn't I think of this sooner' category. I just pretend it's not there at this point. I'm lucky if it works one time out of ten. They should either get their ducks in a row for deployments or just flat-out tell us to look elsewhere.Īnd +1 on the enrollment complete trigger. And I'm supposed to rely on this thing to get computers enrolled? Pfft.Ĭall me crazy, but I like setting up a couple of near-complete images and laying them down on a machine rather than relying on config profiles for the seemingly few things it's good for, rather than relying on third party best-guess softwares and dirty terminal hacks that Apple will eventually, but definitely break for the rest. I get "stopped responding" errors more often than not and we can't even get a managed Apple ID to show our iOS apps in Apple's Configurator. ![]() I've been trying to set up Apple School Manager and so far I think it's a joke. Deploying software after the fact takes up even more time, especially if you have to run policies over and over because of laptop lid shuts, bad connections etc. ![]() Jamf brought up modular imaging which takes up more time and from what I've read isn't even officially supported. There are other ways to do what we're doing but they're all SO. Glad I'm not the only person reading about High Sierra, the new do's and don'ts and thinking "You want us to do what?!" I'm trying to figure out how we're going to proceed with this and I've been browsing around Jamf Nation and even asking Jamf support some things, and honestly I'm really, really nervous of the ability to just lay an image down on a machine and be done with it taken away from us. It's so bright I'm obviously missing the advantages as an administator. Then on reboot, DEP installs your management software, and then applications and settings are installed through an enrollment complete trigger (and hope that works, it doesn't reliably) or the user installs software from Self Service either as individual policies (hopefully in the correct order) or a train of policies that trigger the next policy in order to install your 30+ GB of required applications and settings, many of which have to be installed in a specific order. With Apple forcing everyone into their idea of the future, where everyone has Cupertino-style high speed internet, the user just simply (unlikely) boots to the Recovery partition (has to be done locally, no method to it remotely), wipes the primary partition (try explaining the difference between device and volume to someone who doesn't even know how to get to the Applications menu), reinstalls the latest OS (several hours in some cases for our users). We can then remote in, boot to a support partition on the machine, and reimage the primary partition from the repository stored on the local external drive. ![]() All they need is a usable internet connection so that we can remote to their machine and Casper Imaging can read the configuration.

When reading them, try to pick apart the elements that make them good jokes. Hopefully, reading good jokes might inspire you to start making up your own jokes and witticisms. It won't hurt to have a few good jokes memorized. (Don't forget children's books by good authors they can be a terrific source for good humor!) Wodehouse, Stephen Fry, Kaz Cooke, Sarah Silverman, Woody Allen, Bill Bryson, Bill Watterson, Douglas Adams, etc. Read works by people like James Thurber, P.G.Chemists become chemists by reading and practicing chemistry sports writers become sports writers by reading and writing about sports you're going to become a funnier person by reading and practicing jokes. Get your hands on anything and everything that is funny, and consume it like your mom told you not to. They point out the hygienic customs of the clergy, for example, or the breeding practices of chimpanzees, relating it effortlessly back to something the average person knows and understands. In a way, being funny is simply showing that you are intelligent enough to find the humorous nuances that others miss. Drawing an interesting parallel between two wildly different subjects can be very funny, if done well. If you can find the humor in physics and Paris Hilton, for example, you're well on your way. Broaden your horizons so that you are tuned-in regardless of who you're speaking to.Whatever the material, though, it also needs to resonate with your audience, meaning that your concise ability to deconstruct a 17th century poem might not hit its mark with somebody not familiar with the piece! ![]() It is much easier to find funny moments in material you know well – your workplace attitudes, your amazing knowledge of 17th century poetry, your familiarity with fishing trips that went wrong, etc. Don't worry, you'll have plenty of opportunities to crack through the silence with your whip of a wit.īroaden your factual knowledge for joke material. The worst you can do as a funny person is try to deliver a joke after your window of opportunity has passed. If the timing is all wrong, don't mess with the joke.For example, your friend is thinking about hair, for some reason, and he says: "Isn't it weird that we only have hair on our heads and in our pubic areas?" The friend is not really even expecting a response. Your humorous statement needs to come out quickly and fully-formed. And you whip back with something that makes what they said really funny. Someone says something that, by itself, isn't funny. One liners, or comebacks, can be good fun.React quickly and strike while the humorous moment exists. This is probably why jokes people have heard before don't work, as recognition dulls the humor because the brain is already primed by experience. Good timing is really important, because if you give the brain too much time to work out a situation or joke, the funny moment will pass by. ![]() ![]() ![]() This new interoperability between two of the most popular tools in the AEC industry means that companies will accelerate workflows and gain economic benefits from these new efficiencies. You can download Revit files off the internet from product manufacturers and integrate them into your SketchUp model scenes and LayOut drawings. You don’t need to have Revit to benefit from this new import option. LayOut is becoming an ever stronger tool for creating technical drawings that are linked to a 3D model with these external reference options like DWG and other file types. It ultimately gives SketchUp and Revit users alike more options in their workflows. With this new capability, in addition to the ability to bring in Revit BIM models, SketchUp and LayOut are becoming more versatile tools in workflows beyond conceptual design modeling-SketchUp’s initial forte. Pro users can first install the Importer in SketchUp Pro 2023 and start a Studio license trial. To gain the benefit of native Revit interoperability, users will need to upgrade to the SketchUp Studio license. SketchUp Pro 2023 gains the new benefits of the flip tool and new LayOut features. The user can use the File Reference Manager to update, relink, or remove the file reference. Managing these references is straightforward, and users receive notifications if the file reference is outdated.

Or architects may need to push Revit models to SketchUp for general contractors who use SketchUp for various needs, including modeling for construction planning workflows. Architects may be working with a visualization agency that uses SketchUp as its flexible scene creation environment. Why Move Revit Models to SketchUp?Ī big reason why users may want to move a BIM Revit file to SketchUp includes the prevalence of SketchUp files used by others in the AEC/O industry. This drastically saves time in model clean-up and model organization over previous methods. Revit families and layers translate to groups, components, and tags in SketchUp. Revit material colors and transparencies are maintained. Model structures in the Revit file are preserved. ![]() While workarounds have existed for some time to get Revit models into SketchUp for a host of reasons, Trimble’s new Revit Importer brings in the BIM models with a cleaner conversion that keeps the resultant larger SketchUp file smaller than past methods, with a host of other benefits.įor example, Revit levels translate to SketchUp section planes.
