Sid meiers railroads maps1/31/2024 Also don't fall in the trap of connecting cities that are too close (like Amsterdam and Utretch, or Trieste and Zagreb) as they will yield very little money. Mind the computer players, most are trash but the Stephensons can get out of hand early on. Unlike the Western USA scenario, playing the economy here may be worth it at the beggining, but station and train limits means by the late game you will be dismantling anything that isn't passenger and mail. Just connect cities and carry passengers and mail. Europe (1900): A lot of big cities and availability of very fast locomotives due to the late starting date makes this scenario much like the Western USA. Just start on some big city in the East and run a beeline for the Pacific to grab the bounty award. Fares are double for east-west transportation and half for north-south, wich makes trying to play the economy even harder. Western USA (1866): Unlike the previous scenario, in this one you only need to focus on connecting cities, carring passengers and mail, and using the fastest locomotive available. You will need to use also not only the fastest locomotive available, but also the slow-but-powerful ones for transportation of bulk resources. You need to play the economy, and build factories where huge clusters of resources spring. Simply connecting cities and transporting passengers and mail and nothing else will not work for you. Eastern USA (1830): The game mechanics were built for this scenario, and here and only here is where everything feels balanced. England is a nice variant for the veterans, and Europe become an interesting challenge for a veteran player if you choose an unfavorable starting point (like Spain, the Balkans, or even England). ![]() West USA and Europe are good starting scenarios for the begginer, but the real thing lies in the Eastern USA scenario. They aren't just different maps, but also different gameplay styles. One thing that many people don't realize about this game (even old-time veterans) is that each scenario feels different. This game is a great classic, still full playable today as the interface is smooth and the graphics keep a nice "retro" feeling (unlike the "DeLuxe" edition, whose graphics feel broken and whose interface is clumsy).

Mac turn off mouse acceleration1/31/2024 ![]() Run uninstaller.exe in the release directory to uninstall the driver. Restart your computer for the installation to take effect. Run installer.exe in the release directory to install the Raw Accel driver. ![]() NET Framework 4.7.2+ runtime, download here DO NOT download by clicking the green "Code"/"Download" file on the home page of this repository as that will only download the source code, which isn't what you want. Tried re-pairing it, resetting the bluetooth module and everything else but nothing worked and I think I'm about to give up: can't spend two weeks just to have my damn mouse feel right as it should out of the box.Visit the Releases page and navigate to the "Assets" dropdown under the latest release, then download the zip file titled RawAccel_X.X.X.zip where X are the latest version numbers. It doesn't move exactly when I do it and it's always a bit behind me, and for someone coming from competitive FPS this is driving me nuts. One thing I noticed tho is that if I plug in my Razer USB mouse it works nice and it's way more responsive, while the problem I'm having the most is with the Logitech MX Master 3(regarded as one of the best mice for Mac) and it turns out that on top of the default acceleration, which I disabled, it's also lagging a bit. The fun thing is a lot of Apple users just tell you to "get used to it" because it's an Apple thing, but as someone that changes a lot of operating systems(and I mean different versions of Windows and a ton of Linux distros) my mouse behaves the exact same on every single one of them.except MacOS. The M1 Mini is working great for me but I'm thinking about returning this solely for this issue: searching for a way to fix this weird mouse acceleration gives you results as old as 2008 meaning it's been a long time issue and they STILL haven't added a damn checkbox to disable it and use raw mouse input like in Windows.

Chatology not syncing odays conversation1/31/2024 ![]() My question in this case would be if you are experiencing the syncing issue you mentioned with the Blaze and Surge at this moment or if that was in the past? Your feedback and comments will not go unnoticed. ![]() Please do know that we appreciate the feedback and that we're always looking for ways to improve the overall Fitbit experience and make it the best it can possibly be. They could've happened because of the phone being unsupported or other reasons. It is very difficult to determine if all of the syncing issues you have experiences are single syncing issue that needs to be fixed given the several different variables that you have presented. Hello for sharing your and your sister's experiences through the 5 years you have been a member of the Fitbit Community. This is an issue with the core design of the app itself, many people are facing the same problem, just make a search on this forum and see. They just track their daily performance on the tracker itself, and never bother with the syncing issue. This issue happens with two of my sisters as well, they gave up on syncing their data. (resetting the phone or cleaning the cash have never worked) ![]() To solve this I usually unpair/repair the tracker, uninstall/reinstall the app. This is not the only time I face this problem, it might be the TENTH time over different phones (Galaxy S2, Galaxy Note 4, Oneplus 5, and Oneplus 6). Now, I'm really fed up, I'm trying to sync Surge for almost two weeks and it does not work. If I do not go and sync them ((manually)), they might go for months without getting synced. Some time, Bothe sync okay (but manually), other times (Blaze syncs okay, but Surge does not), and some times the other way around. I use them both for different exercises and occasions. On my phone, I have two trackers: Surge, and Blaze. I've been using Fitbit for more than 5 years, and never was satisfied with the syncing. They have several products every year, but their software is almost the same, with the same problem. I'm a big fan of Fitbit and its products, but their software development drives me creasy.

The painter Frà Pandolf and the sculptor Claus of Innsbruck are fictitious, as far as we know, but Browning must have meant his readers to associate the poem with these shadowy historical figures because he changed the title in 1849, from "Italy and France. He first published the poem in 1842, four years after his visit to Italy. The poem's duke of Ferrara, his last duchess, the "Count" with whose servant (Mardruz) Ferrara is here discussing re-marriage and a dowry, and the new "fair daughter" are historical, but the interpretation of what actually took place among them is Browning's own. She died barely 17 years old, and people talked, and four years later in Innsbruck, Alfonso began negotiating for a new wife with a servant of the then count of Tyrol, one Nikolaus Mardruz. ![]() Three days after the wedding, Alfonso left her - for two years. He must have come across a biography of Alfonso II (1533-1598), fifth duke of Ferrara, who married Lucrezia, the 14-year-old daughter of the upstart merchant princes, the Medici, in 1558. Fascinated with the Renaissance period, he visited Italy in 1838 and clearly had done considerable reading about its history. Friedland, a critic who published an article on "My Last Duchess" in 1936, we know something about how young Browning found the story. He answered them cautiously, almost as if he had not written the poem but was seeing it himself, attentively, after a very long time and was trying to understand what had happened. "You say what? there's nothing in the poem about him killing her! where do you find that?" A century and more ago, when Browning still lived, readers presented him with questions about this poem. Readers familiar with Browning's writing and sensitive to nuance perceive the speaker's pride and cold-bloodedness. Browning's readers have only a title and, in "My Last Duchess," a speech prefix, "Ferrara." Yet these are transfixing clues to a drama that we observe, helplessly, unable to speak or to act, as if we turned on a radio and, having selected a frequency, overhear a very private conversation, already in process and, as we may come very gradually to appreciate, about a murder and the maybe-killer's search for the next victim. Soliloquies or speeches in a play have a context that orients the audience. We always drop unprepared into a Browning dramatic monologue, into several lives about which we know nothing. Friedland and published in "Ferrara and My Last Duchess," Studies in Philology 33 (1936): 656-84. Nikolaus Mardruz, who took orders from Ferdinand II, count of Tyrol, led Barbara's entourage then. Alfonso contrived to meet his second to-be spouse, Barbara of Austria, in Innsbruck in July 1565. She died, 17 years old, in what some thought suspicious circumstances. He married his first wife, 14-year-old Lucrezia, a daughter of the Cosimo I de' Medici, in 1558 and three days later left her for a two-year period. Ferrara: most likely, Browning intended Alfonso II (1533-1598), fifth duke of Ferrara, in northern Italy, from 1559 to 1597, and the last member of the Este family. Italy" (then the poem was paired with "Count Gismond: Aix in Provence," which followed). Title: emphasizing the word Last as the ending of the poem implies the Duke, identified as "Ferrara" in the poem's speech prefix, is negotiating for his next Duchess. Fra Pandolf (line 3) and Claus of Innsbruck (line 54) are artists of Browning's own invention. The emphasis in the title is on last, as the ending of the poem makes clear the Duke is now negotiating for his next Duchess. 1] First published in Dramatic Lyrics, 1842 given its present title in 1849 ( Dramatic Romances and Lyrics).
