Guest additions virtualbox11/29/2023 When such issues arise we will try to post applicable patches here, until this issue is fixed by vBox. Usually after a point release, which introduces major changes to the kernel or other subsystems, the compilation of the vBox tools fails. If not in a GUI, or if there is no autorun, as root mount /dev/cdrom or /dev/sr0 (if necessary) and cd to the mountpoint. Take all the defaults and the install should complete. If autorun is enabled in a GUI you may get a window asking if you want to let the autorun execute, and asking for root authorization. If running a GUI the virtual CD image for guest additions will automount - for instance under CentOS-6 with KDE it is mounted under /media/VBOXADDITIONS_5.0.14_105127. Do not try to install a Xen kernel in a Guest OS, or run KVM or any other nested virtualization hypervisor.įrom the VM Devices menu select Install Guest Additions. If you are not using a standard CentOS kernel, you must acquire and install the source for your kernel from wherever you got the kernel. ![]() Replace "kernel-devel" with "kernel-PAE-devel" if using a PAE kernel on CentOS-5. You may also choose to only install a minimum set of individual development tool packages (at least gcc and make are required, in addition to kernel-devel) rather than the groupinstall which some may consider overkill. If the development environment and kernel source are not already installed: If DKMS is not used the Guest Additions will need to be reinstalled after every kernel update. Installing DKMS may pull in required development dependencies, depending on the package source. Don't forget to configure the yum-priorities plugin. Installing DKMS from the EPEL repository is recommended before installing VirtualBox. If DKMS (Dynamic Kernel Module Support) is installed it will be used and will simplify kernel upgrades. The installation of VB will require the building of kernel modules. Login to a root shell or "su -" in a terminal window. You will need to be the root user for the following tasks. ![]() After the install reboot and perform firstboot configuration. Start the VM and perform a graphical install, or if desired a text install. For a first install attempt make a minimum of changes to the defaults. Change any additional settings, such as the amount of memory for the virtual video adapter, and whether to use NAT or Bridged networking. ![]() Navigate to the directory where the ISO image reside and pick one, for example CentOS-6.7-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso or CentOS-7-x86_6.iso. Additional disk can be added later if desired.Īfter the VM is created, run Settings, go to Storage, and under IDE Controller click on the CD icon on the left, then select the similar CD icon on the right and pick Choose a virtual CD/DVD from the list. For a relatively full install, allocate at least 15GB, otherwise use all the defaults. Next the virtual hard disk wizard will start. Memory should be at least 768MB for a graphical install to work. Start by downloading the ISO file you wish to use for installation from a CentOS Mirror.Ĭreate a New Virtual Machine (VM) with the Virtual Machine Wizard, choosing Linux for the OS Type and Red Hat or Red Hat (64 bit) for the Operating System. Installation of CentOS as a guest OS is much like installing on real hardware.

This change lasted about 3 years before the packaging was again redesigned. The new wrapper had a black background with ringed gray stripes and a new lime green logo. In 2016, Hershey worked with a panel of millennial students to design a new wrapper and logo for Take 5 as part of a youth-oriented comeback campaign. In 2006, when the price of cocoa butter increased dramatically, Hershey and other manufacturers substituted vegetable and sesame seed oil, but in 2014 Hershey reverted to cocoa butter, perhaps to meet the FDA guidelines that milk chocolate must contain cocoa butter and milkfat. ![]() Chocolate cookie, Marshmallow, peanut butter and white chocolate, with the first two replacing the pretzel and caramel with chocolate cookies and marshmallow puffs. Then the Hershey Company released four alternative versions of Take 5 in 20. In an attempt to improve the product, Hershey’s designed a new logo and wrapper for the Take 5 candy bar and renamed it Reese’s Take 5 to focus on Reese’s peanut butter, one of the ingredients in the bar that young adults often enjoy. For a time, The Take 5 bar was known as Max 5 in Canada. Take 2 was released by The Hershey Company and is a more complex candy bar than the company’s more simple flagship Hershey candy bar. ![]() Classically The Take 5 showcases five key ingredients Peanut butter, peanuts, milk chocolate, caramel and pretzels. The Take 5 bar is a candy bar that was released in the year 2004. Environmental visual enhancements11/28/2023 ![]() “We have to start from a point of authenticity and then take some creative license because we’re still making a piece of entertainment.” The methodology did not change going from a series to feature format. “This is not a documentary,” observes Richard Frazer, VFX Supervisor at BlueBolt. The story revolves around Uhtred of Bebbanburg attempting to unite England after the death of King Edward. That was all done in comp.”Īfter being the sole visual effects vendor on 10 th century British saga The Last Kingdom, BlueBolt gets to apply five seasons worth of expertise to the Netflix feature film The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die. To effectively achieve that in compositing we came up with a method to stripe out the reflections and refractions from the pieces of glass, defocus them separately using a different depth channel and recombine them all. We had to come up with a way to defocus all of this stuff properly. You have a depth channel of the piece of glass. Glass is all reflections and refractions that’s classically quite difficult to comp because if you have a CG render of a pane of glass and you’re seeing through it, you don’t have a depth channel for the stuff you’re seeing through it. Also, the way that light travels through glass and compositing glass has some fundamental difficulties. That was something we were definitely anticipating. ![]() “We had to have moving reflections on every surface and nearby buildings as well. “How are we going to build the city and add moving traffic to it?” Towle observes. “This is not work we’ve done too extensively before, so new pipeline tools had to be written to help with that, and new animation tools as well.”Ĭonstructing the DC Towers and surrounding Vienna were the biggest photoreal environments for Finn Design + Effects. “Because we were replacing the glass in every shot and glass is highly reflective, that required us to do accurate digital doubles of four or five characters, and those had to be rotomated into every single shot,” Towle explains. We started with broad strokes and we slowly zoomed into the tiny details like anisotropic filtering, dirt maps on the glass, and kept adding layers of detail to the CG build until it looked photoreal.” Rotomation of the characters was a critical part of the process. Pictures were shared of what this sequence might look like. Early on, Björn and I talked about other references. “It gave us a good starting point and base to ground our CG. “Björn knows what he wants, and they had actually built quite a big set of the awning, but we ended up replacing all of it because you have reflections in the pieces of glass such as crew members and bluescreen,” Towle remarks. Clear and concise instructions were articulated by Mayer. Open office visio11/28/2023 You can have either type of connection on either end of a connector. There are two types of connections that a connector can have to a shape: a point connection (sometimes referred to as a static connection) or a dynamic connection. For more information, see Snap & Glue dialog box. You can also glue connectors (and lines) to shape vertices, shape handles, and shape geometry. Note: Connection points are not the only places you can glue connectors. But there are times when you want more control over the routing and intersecting of connectors in your diagram. In most cases, you can rely on the default connector behavior. Top of Page Reroute or intersect connectors To add, change, or remove an arrow on the beginning and end of the selected connector, select an arrow or None on the arrow menu. In the Format Shape pane, under Line, select the: On the Home tab, in the Shape Styles group, select Line, and then select Line Options. This command provides the ability to reverse the flow of all the selected connectors.Īlternatively, to change the direction of a connector, without using the Reverse Ends command, add a new arrow to the end without an arrow and remove the existing arrow from the other end. The Reverse Ends command button can easily be added to your ribbon using the File \ Options \ Customize the Ribbon. Therefore the Reverse Ends command should be used for these connectors, rather than re-formatting the ends. Note: The direction of the connection in some types of diagrams, such as various process flow diagrams, is important. Top of Page Reverse the direction of a connector arrow In the Format Shape pane, under Line, set any of the color, width, style, and rounding options.

In Australia, over the life of the pandemic, 1.4% of people with COVID-19 have died from it, compared with 1.6% in the United States and 1.8% in the United Kingdom.ĭata from the United States shows people who were vaccinated were ten times less likely than those who weren’t to die from the virus. It’s also possible to get COVID twice, though this isn’t common. Most symptoms of breakthrough infection are mild and don’t last as long. Breakthrough infection occurs when a vaccinated person tests positive for SARS-Cov-2, regardless of whether they have symptoms.īreakthrough infection appears more common with Delta than the original strains. ![]() Can you still get COVID after being vaccinated? While protection is lower for Delta than the original strain, studies show good coverage for all vaccines after two doses. So far, the data show a complete course of the Pfizer, AstraZeneca or Moderna vaccine reduces your chance of severe disease (requiring hospitalisation) by more than 85%. Shutterstock How do the vaccines stack up against Delta? Similarly, a published study from Scotland found Delta doubled the risk of hospitalisation compared to the Alpha variant.Įmerging evidence suggests Delta is more likely to cause severe disease than the original strain. This compared with a 38% chance of developing pneumonia and 11% needing oxygen with the original strain. In the Singapore study, patients with Delta had a 49% chance of developing pneumonia and a 28% chance of needing extra oxygen. This compared with other variants of concern which landed 5.4% of people in hospital and 1.2% in intensive care. In the Canadian study, Delta resulted in a 6.1% chance of hospitalisation and a 1.6% chance of ICU admission. Some people also report a loss of taste or smell, muscle aches. Preliminary studies from Canada and Singapore found people infected with Delta were more likely to require hospitalisation and were at greater risk of dying than those with the original virus. Some of the early symptoms may be very similar to a cold or flu, and include a sore throat, nasal congestion, cough or fever. Is it more deadly?Įvidence the Delta variant makes people sicker than the original virus is growing. Longer-lasting symptoms can include fatigue, shortness of breath, chest pain, heart palpitations, headaches, brain fog, muscle aches, sleep disturbance, depression and the loss of smell and taste. ![]() Some may experience fatigue or headache, while others. For those who develop symptoms of COVID, the first signs can vary widely. Like the original strain, the Delta variant can affect many of the body’s organs including the lungs, heart and kidneys.Ĭomplications include blood clots, which at their most severe can result in strokes or heart attacks.Īround 10-30% of people with COVID-19 will experience prolonged symptoms, known as long COVID, which can last for months and cause significant impairment, including in people who were previously well.Įven previously well people can get long COVID. Shah provides a timeline of COVID symptoms day by day: Days 1-3. With faster replication and higher viral loads it is easy to see why Delta is challenging contact tracers and spreading so rapidly. For Delta, the viral load is up to roughly 1,200 times higher than the original strain. But there is often a gap between when a person becomes infectious to others to when they show symptoms.Īs the virus replicates, the viral load increases. The time from virus exposure to symptoms is called the incubation period. People with COVID-19 appear to be most infectious two days before to three days after symptoms start, though it’s unclear whether this differs with Delta. Although often there are no symptoms yet, the person has become infectious.

Are hot fries being discontinued11/28/2023 ![]() Why Were Crown-Shaped Chicken Nuggets Discontinued?īurger King introduced these nuggets back in 2011 for New Year’s. These nuggets have never made a nationwide comeback after, but they are, as of now, available at quite a few outlets in Florida. ![]() When they removed this menu item in 2011, it triggered an online petition! So yes, people loved these royal chicken nuggets. Plain chicken nuggets in the shape of crowns intrigued many people, and there was a massive demand for them. These chicken nuggets from Burger King almost became a trademark for the fast food chain. It is one of the reasons why ribs never made a comeback, as they were not well received by as many people as Burger King would have wished. However, quite a few people disagreed with the idea and thought the ribs were salty and expensive. They said the ribs were perfectly charred, juicy, and had a balanced flavor. Most people did like the ribs quite a bit. It has made comebacks at Burger King in other countries, but never in the United States! Why Were Ribs Discontinued? So, considering the massive success of the ribs, it may seem utterly ridiculous to know that this menu item is now discontinued. Even now, after so many years, many people favor these ribs and want them to return to the Burger King menu. Although this item has been discontinued from the menu, it was a huge success when it was a part of the menu.īurger King ended up selling 10 Million Ribs back then and ran out a week before they were supposed to be done with the limited-time deal. Ribs at Burger King first appeared in 2010 for a limited time only. Ribs have only worked for some fast-food restaurant chains, including Burger King. So now, let us look at these options, why they were discontinued, and which ones we wish would make a comeback on the Burger King menu! 1. ![]() Similarly, the chicken fries have defined Burger King as a brand, but versions of it may have yet to work. However, many experiments done with the Whopper have yet to be successful. It was a massive success when Burger King first introduced their Whopper. Some of these experiments have been enormously successful and have defined the chain. So, now and then, they introduce new menu items to attract customers and make them happy. ![]()
