![]() That seems to be the case with this series, which is a game of two halves. In the words of Shaun Harvey, an adviser to the board, they have to “utilise that celebrity asset” – and they do. For example, while it is vague on the details, they make it possible for the grass on the pitch to be replaced at great – and unexpected – expense. They bring in big-name sponsors and turn their social media spotlight on to the team. They know that their fame can make Wrexham famous on a much larger scale. Reynolds and McElhenney offered financial support and hope when they bought the club. I suspect it will be all the more effective on people, like me, who have not followed Wrexham’s journey closely in the past two years. Matches are given the high-tension treatment, with dramatic music, slow-motion shots and cliffhangers. Unsurprisingly, the footage has been put together with Hollywood pomp. Never has a room full of men looked less impressed. ![]() There is an excruciating scene as Ker introduces himself to the squad, admitting that he is a TV writer and that this is the extent of his qualifications to be the club’s “executive director”. Reynolds and McElhenney are self-deprecating and funny. The documentary was planned before the takeover was completed, so there are cameras there at every step of the way. “Even though I’ve never been there, it reminds me of Philadelphia,” he says. One of the questions asked of the two actors at the start is: “Why Wrexham?” Although there isn’t one satisfactory answer to that, McElhenney offers his working-class upbringing as a point of recognition and empathy. McElhenney and Reynolds might be the names above the marquee, but it evolves into a touching and inspiring documentary about an ordinary town that is down on its luck and could do with a lift. Once it gets its Football for Dummies shtick – and its compulsion to explain what words such as “sacked” mean – out of the way, it improves enormously. I thought subtitling Welsh people speaking English in a documentary about a Welsh team was a bit inconsiderate, but at least it affords the honour to anyone English who grew up north of the Watford Gap, too. Anyone who has a whiff of an accent that isn’t home counties gets subtitles. The pitch is referred to as the field the league system is explained by way of a comparison with the minor league baseball team the Toledo Mud Hens. The series is clearly aimed at an American audience, with much made of the strangeness of the situation. McElhenney, who admits he needed “superhero-movie-star money” to buy the club, appears to be the driving force behind the deal. ![]() There is only a smattering of Reynolds, who is more camera-shy than might be expected. It places much of its early focus on McElhenney and his English colleague Humphrey Ker, a comedian, screenwriter and actor turned “Rob and Ryan’s guy” at the club. With their goal of getting Wrexham – the oldest club in Wales and the third-oldest continually operating professional team in the world – promoted from the fifth tier of English football, the series has the hallmarks of a fish-out-of-water documentary, a Ted Lasso in real life, but it turns out to be a more soulful series than that, once it gets over its bumpy landing.īased on the opener of the 18 zippy episodes (five of which were available for preview), I had low hopes. The release date for this Marvel epic? Mark your calendars for May 3, 2024.Welcome to Wrexham (Disney+) tells the story of how Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, internet friends and Hollywood stars with seemingly little knowledge of football – but a clear enthusiasm for sport in general – bought Wrexham AFC in early 2021. Fans are keenly awaiting the dynamism between this new Wolverine and Reynolds' Deadpool. Jackman, renowned for his long-standing portrayal of Wolverine in the Fox-led mutant universe, is set to bring a fresh twist to the character, introducing a Logan variant from an alternate Earth. A gap of over half a decade since its predecessor, the third installment in the Deadpool saga is creating a buzz for a special reason: the inclusion of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. Once he hangs up his soccer managerial hat, Reynolds will be donning his irreverent alter ego, Wade Wilson, for Deadpool 3. Season 2 will throw light on their comeback strategy post their inaugural setback.īut that's not all on Reynolds' plate. Though their initial venture didn't catapult the team into a higher league, their spirit remained indomitable. Taken by the potential and promise of Wrexham A.F.C., the duo pooled in their resources, forming a unique alliance. It all began during the tumultuous pandemic days when Rob McElhenney pitched the idea of buying a professional soccer club to Reynolds. Rewinding a bit to the series' debut season, it traced the rather unexpected journey of Reynolds stepping into the world of soccer.

![]() However, an inexpensive electric chainsaw is not going to churn through a pickup truck’s worth of firewood in a morning. ![]() A mid-duty model is likely to cost about $250, and an inexpensive one suitable to handle the occasional downed tree limb is going to run you roughly $150 to $200. Pro-duty electric saws powered by a battery are expensive, costing in the range of $300 to $400 on average with the most heavy-duty models costing two to three times that amount. Pro Duty Power, Easy to Use: ECHO Echo DCS5000 Battery-Powered Chainsaw.Pro Duty at a Great Price: Husqvarna Power Axe 350i Battery-Powered Chainsaw.Best Value: Worx Nitro WG385 Battery-Powered Chainsaw.Most Efficient: RYOBI RY 40580 Battery-Powered Chainsaw.Then scroll down for buying advice and in-depth reviews of these and other models. Take a look below at quick info of the best chainsaws from our testing. What’s more, professional-level tools compare very favorably with gas-engine saws when it comes to power. And chances are you already own a string trimmer or other cordless tool that uses a battery that can power the chainsaw. But for cleaning up fallen limbs, landscape maintenance, and tree pruning, battery chainsaws are more than up to the job. There’s no substitute for the hard-charging torque of a properly tuned and well-maintained gas-powered saw, particularly for big woodcutting jobs. Skip any aspect of that protocol and you have a finicky piece of power equipment that will likely fail you when you need it most. If you do that, you’ll be rewarded with a saw that starts easily and runs reliably. And you need to run a gas-engine chainsaw at least several times a year and keep it tuned with a fresh spark plug and air filter. You have to store one of those with ethanol-free, two-cycle engine mix or by mixing a preservative with its fuel. This simplicity stands in direct contrast to the exacting maintenance protocol required for gas-engine chainsaws. So long as you keep its chain sharp and bar oil in the reservoir, you’ll make quick work of dicing up that wood. ![]() Click in a charged battery and get to work. The fastest and easiest way to clean up a tree or limb brought down by a fierce autumn or winter storm is by using a battery-powered chainsaw. ![]() What should you do?

![]() There are layers of different system mechanics and multiple currencies that do not always integrate well. The game is pretty, the ships are especially well rendered, but the underlying game mechanics show their age. ![]() The game is free to play but aggressively monetized. The public queues often had long wait times with high rates of mission failure. At that time most of the end game content involved Task Force Operation missions with difficulty levels that went from insulting to impossible unless you were using a min/maxed build and researched the mission in detail before queuing for it. ![]() I last loaded this game up late last year. The end game content, like many on-line games, is where this game starts to have issues. The developers should be commended for what they have accomplished with limited resources and an aged game engine. The story missions are some of my favorite moments of the game. It is a faithful adaptation of the Star Trek universe enriched by voice acting from many of the original actors. I have spent almost three thousand hours in this game. (Btw this is my honest review I'm not endorsed by STO it's just honestly that good) There's already a lot of great players, but if you do join, you will surely not be disappointed. Honestly, I think STO's story should be the next tv series it would bring Star Trek back. All the equipment, characters, star systems, and races are straight from the tv shows, with some new and exciting additions. Devs are always releasing new missions problems are patched and fixed very quickly. I won't even get into reputation, modifying weapons, researching new weapons, upgrading ships, retrofits, refits, enhancements, or fleet variants.įinally, perhaps the most important thing is that this game has character, and it's ridiculously fun. THEN, you hand-pick for your ship out of 200+ shields, out of 300+ warp engines, out of 700+ deflector arrays, 500+ impulse engines, and, out of over 1000 consoles that boost and buff your ship in different ways.Īll of this is for ONE faction, of which there are three to choose from. This means you have literally 7x20x4x14圆!= 5 644 800 specific weapons to choose from, not counting stacking. Each weapon can be from the mark I to XIV, will be built for DmG, Pen, Crit D, Crit Chance, Acc, Rad (radiation), and each of these can be paired, and stacked up to 4 times. All of this, of course, doesn't count torpedoes, mines, and missiles. Each of those weapon types comes in over 20 different energy types. Each weapon can be either a beam, dual beam, cannon, dual cannon, heavy cannon, dual heavy cannon, turret, or omnidirectional beam. You then hand pick each of the minimum eight weapons you put on that ship. After that, you pick out of the 80+ ships in the game, each having an entirely different style, with differing health, speed, turning radius, shield modifier, warp core type, and size. Then, you pick up to 70 duty officers, each having their own set of skills. Ok, done right? Now you do that again a minimum of EIGHT times since you customize skills and traits for each bridge officer. Then, you move on to your skills tree (yes, it's a completely separate thing from traits). First, you need to fill out your traits, of which there are about 40 to choose from. If you think you've made a 'build' in a game, you don't know what a build is until you've played STO. The biggest thing, however, is versatility. I have been playing the game now for SEVEN years, and I still am ways away from reaching end game level, nevermind being competitive. So, I went from dominating in PvP to getting my ass whooped when I went from level 59 to level 60. Little did I know that in PvE and PvP level 60 players are pooled together. And, once I finally reached level 60, I thought I was done. Regarding the skill cap, it took me two years of competitive playing to get to level 60, not because the game forces you to farm, but because of the immense amount of in-game content. However, there are so many aspects to the combat, including the fact that you are fighting in a 3d space, not 2d like WoW, you need to position your ship to attack the weakened side of a ship, whilst protecting your weak shields, and all the weapons have a specific firing arc, meaning you need to bring your guns to bear. I quickly learned that this game is absolutely fantastic. As a gamer who has played WoW and League, I was led to believe that this game was horrible since the space battles are auto-targeting and the skill cap is super low. These are completely false do not be misguided. I have read many reviews that say this mmo falls short. Includes access to Print Setup and Database Connection Setup.

![]() There is no action required - this is just a name changed and it doesn't impact the user privileges or role assignment. ![]() Note from the docs: The (old) Common Data Service User security role was renamed to Basic User. This role is for actions in core entities where the user can write, update, and delete records that they created or owned. Every user with a license is automatically assigned to that Security Role. This opens a new tab - just to mention, this can take some time to load. In the menu, open the Advanced settings as here. So, to add permissions to users follow these steps: As Administrator, you can open the gear icon in the top right corner next to the account icon to open the settings menu. See more about the predefined security roles at Environments with a Dataverse database. Users with that security role can view all data in the environment - they don´t need explicit permissions. The System Administrator role has full permission to customize or administer the environment, including creating, modifying, and assigning security roles. Note that these steps are required, since the Environment Maker role doesn't have privileges on the environment's data. You can find out more about using Dataverse at Common Data Service Introduction - CDS 101. The table name here is atworktest with some text columns. To demonstrate how to set permissions, I switched to the environment (in my sample, it´s the " Dev environment") and created a new table in the / Data / Table menu. So, if your users get an ugly "unknown error occurred" when accessing the PowerApp, here´s the solution to assign the required security role and permissions. When users shall have access to a PowerApp that is using Dataverse (formerly Common Data Service - CDS), they also need to have the permissions to access the data entity (nowadays called table). They can also set the access rights once they allow the connection. Insofar as the target PC is concerned, AeroAdmin allows the user to accept or reject the connection. You will then need to wait for the host PC to allow you access. All you have to do is provide the computer ID and choose between view-only mode or remote control. However, the device needs pre-configuration, so that it runs automatically when the operating system starts up.Ĭonnecting to a host is easy since there is nothing for you to configure. You can also access an unattended computer. As with similar apps, you will need the host computer's ID number and permission from the user to connect. Users need only to download and run the program to either connect to a remote computer or enable a connection to your device. ![]() One of the advantages of AeroAdmin over its competition is that it does not require a permanent installation. It is free for commercial and personal use, but with some limitations. It is compact and uncomplicated, with all the functionalities you expect from a remote support tool. This app makes it easy for anyone to establish a remote desktop connection with another computer, provided that they are running the same app. AeroAdmin is among the growing number of remote control software. With remote PC apps, you can access some files or view the desktop and its ongoing activities wherever you are. ![]() Softonic review Free remote desktop clientĬonnecting a PC to a remote location is easy to do nowadays. ![]() Journalists “would have to be worried that you could maybe protect your sources, but your sources couldn’t protect themselves.”Ĭlearview Founder Hoan Ton-That has stood by his “ search engine for faces,” emphasizing that Clearview uses only publicly available photos and arguing that there is a First Amendment right to public information. “If a court did make us turn over those records, that precedent would be terrifying for First Amendment reasons,” she said. ![]() Rosenberg also called the subpoenas “a backhanded way” of targeting journalists’ sources. “There is absolutely no justification for a vendor to be able to target civil society groups we know just how chilling that can be,” he said. It was not immediately clear whether other advocates or civil society groups that have been outspoken about Clearview were targeted with subpoenas.Īlbert Fox Cahn, founder and executive director of the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project, a nonprofit that litigates and advocates against government mass surveillance, argued the subpoenas could intimidate or undermine watchdog groups like his. Open the Government has secured pro bono legal representation from the firm Ballard Spahr. “They presumably have massive amounts of resources at their disposal we do not,” Rosenberg said in an interview, adding that “nonprofits could potentially be bullied by Clearview.” Lisa Rosenberg, executive director of Open the Government, argued it’s a way for Clearview to threaten critics. Clearview did not respond to a question on how the communications with journalists were relevant to the Illinois case.īrody said it can be a taxing and expensive process to contest a subpoena - and that can be especially troublesome for nonprofits and smaller advocacy organizations without the legal or financial might to fight it off. ![]() ![]() That litigation is a privacy case in Illinois district court that does not appear to involve Open The Government, Martinez or Lucy Parsons Labs. Lichtman said in a statement that “Clearview AI is vigorously defending itself against claims in multi-district litigation and therefore has served subpoenas to appropriate parties relating to its defense.” It has been shown to disproportionately misidentify women and people of color.Ĭlearview’s attorney Andrew J. Privacy, human rights and civil liberties advocates have long raised alarm about facial recognition technology as both intrusive and biased. Open the Government and MuckRock shared their research about police use of surveillance - including Clearview’s technology - with the New York Times, and the paper published several reports last year detailing the startup’s work with law enforcement.Īuthorities have been using Clearview’s software for several years to try to match images in government databases and surveillance footage with billions of personal photos posted to the internet. “To use legal process to try to silence critics - silence people that are just trying to get transparency about how our criminal justice system is operating and what tools are being used by law enforcement agencies - that’s pretty problematic,” Brody said. David Brody, counsel and senior fellow for privacy and technology at the nonprofit Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, said the move could be seen as an attempt to deter the advocacy groups, and journalists, from future investigations.
