![]() Blue Planet II, which accompanies an epic 7-part series on BBC1, is a ground-breaking new look at the richness and variety of underwater life across our planet. And while that might have been good news for Leo and Kate on a certain ship, for everyone and everything else it’s very, very bad."Our understanding of ocean life has changed dramatically in the last decade, with new species, new behaviours, and new habitats being discovered at a rapid rate. ![]() Why can’t Mrs Walrus find an ice floe? Because we’ve melted them all. Oh, plus the message that we’re messing it all up, of course, destroying it. Now say “wow” and “oh em gee” and “did you see” at work and school. And that’s it, I think, the only story of this first episode: that there are some extraordinary and brilliant things going on down there, and here it is as you’ve never seen it before. Hang on a second, how did we get here from the wave-riding dolphins and the surface-to-air trevallies? Erm, by sea, that’s how. To colder waters, where orcas are whacking swarms of herrings with their tails, and sea otters are making themselves into furry rafts of cuteness for their babies, and a mummy walrus – goo goo g’ joob – is looking for an ice floe for her calf to rest up on … And, how about this for a twist, now she’s a he – a trans fish. Bottom feeder, naturally.Īnd what’s going on here, in the waters off Japan? A big male wrasse called a kobudai, an ugly brute with a big bump on its head, is ha-wrassing a lady wrasse. And what looks like an anus that is constantly being fed by its own 10 leafy legs? A sea cucumber, you say, Sir David? Well, I’ve never seen a cucumber that looks anything like that I’m calling it a cabbage-legged sea arsehole. ![]() Here’s a sea dragon, a creature surely designed by Dr Seuss. Otherwise, wow.Ī walrus mother and calf resting on an iceberg in Svalbard, Norway. The usual moan about the music: too much of it, too in-my-face (Hans Zimmer’s score goes into full ballistic Battle of Britain mode). The best is the one that just misses, the tern somehow snatches life from the jaws of death, is nudged a little higher on to the breeze and just out of reach of the big fish, which very quickly goes from looking pretty awesome to frankly ridiculous as it bellyflops ignominiously back into the lagoon. That’s the one, isn’t it, the OMG did-you-see-that racer-snake moment. ![]() Like the very opposite of gannets plummeting into the sea to grab startled sardines maybe these trevallies have seen that footage on previous Attenborough docs, and it gave them the idea. Then it launches itself from the sea like a surface-to-air missile and grabs the poor bird mid-air. The trevally sees it flying above the surface from below, calculates airspeed, altitude and trajectory, probably does a “your tern, no my tern” gag with its mate. To a tern, a trevally is like a great white shark – just when they thought it was safe … They’re not even safe when they finally get a bit better at flying. They want bird for tea, young tern, snatched from the surface of the water from below. A bit like Skodas in that respect.Īnd check these ones out, giant trevallies in the lagoon of an Indian Ocean atoll. Yeah, a fish using a tool! Remember when we used to make jokes about goldfish and their three-second memories? Well, no one’s making those jokes any more. ![]() On the Great Barrier Reef, a tuskfish smashes a clam that has clammed up against a particular coral, the same one it uses every day. They are not the only brainiacs of the sea. ![]()

Those who want to kill enemies come here, and often these are already more experienced players, so newcomers will not have a sweet time there.A large area of industrial park land situated adjacent to the factory zone. The Woods map is more designed specifically for PvP battles, not for those who prefer to look for catastrophically scarce resources at the location. Also, expensive rifles are especially effective on Woods, while the basic sniper weapons have a hard time resisting them. For those who prefer other weapons for closer ranges, eliminating enemies will be very difficult. The map is designed for long-range battles using sniper rifles. And therefore, the main money is earned in battles against other players, usually experienced gamers. There is little loot in the vastness of the location. Often it is recommended to bypass it in every possible way for unprepared players until they gain gaming experience. In addition, there are lots of AI Scavs as well.Īlthough the "Woods" is a very picturesque location and you can hold interesting battles on it, this map is considered difficult for beginners. Up to 12 players can participate in the raid at the same time, not counting the player-Scavs. However, thanks to vegetation and various natural and not only obstacles, battles can quite successfully take place at medium range as well. The fact is that players with sniper weapons will be able to find vantage points that rise above the surrounding landscape, while their opponents will be in a less advantageous situation. Due to the uneven terrain, the location is great for fighting over long distances. The game location "Woods" is a large Woods area where, in addition to vegetation, there are hills, fields, and rocks. ![]() ![]() ![]() Mouser is an authorized distributor for many automotive connector manufacturers including Amphenol, Aptiv (formerly Delphi), Cinch, Hirose, JAE, JST, Kostal, Molex, TE Connectivity, Yazaki, & more.

If not, GalaxyTrail included a Classic Mode that trims the fat and allows for more traditional level progression. “Freedom Planet” will not be winning any awards for its narrative, but it is worth checking out at least once or twice. That being said, the story is still sound for what it is and the main heroes are both adorable and endearing. Additionally, the tone swings between playful and serious so often it makes the story feel tonally choppy. They last twice as long as a gameplay sequence and sometimes raise more questions than provide answers. While the story is by no means terrible, it is easily the weakest link in “Freedom Planet.” Part of the reason is because the cutscene strings in between levels tend to last far longer than they ought to. Along with an alien named Torque and a young pup named Milla Basset, they must race against the odds to stop Brevon’s plans. Now, the fate of Avalice is in the hands of a dragon named Sash Lilac and her best friend, a wildcat named Carol Tea. He goes so far as to behead Shuigang’s king and brainwash its prince, Dail, in the opening cutscene to set things in motion. However, nobody realizes the war is being orchestrated by an intergalactic warlord named Arktivus Brevon, who seeks to steal the Kingdom Stone to power his army. The kingdoms of Shang Mu, Shang Tu and Shuigang are warring over the Kingdom Stone, a life-giving relic that powers the entire planet. The story of “Freedom Planet” takes place on the planet Avalice, where war is on the rise. “Freedom Planet” might look like another dime-a-dozen “Sonic” clone, but there is much more to it than a passing resemblance. The end result is developer GalaxyTrail’s love letter to the action titles of yesteryear, blending elements of “Sonic the Hedgehog,” “Mega Man X” and “Gunstar Heroes” to create something amazing. Once one of many fan-games based off the “Sonic the Hedgehog” series, the game was retooled by creator Stephen DiDuro to become its own entity. Fortunately, “Freedom Planet” is not one of those games. Sure, they may present cool new ideas and could be fun to play, but usually, with one or two exceptions, these sorts of games amount to nothing more than a flash in the pan. Fan-made games usually do not amount to much in the long run. ![]() ![]() ![]() A lot of new games in this genre have appeared lately, so we devised a list of the best Android MOBA games you can play right now. ![]() In September 2023, League of Legends was the top MOBA title across YouTube and Twitch with approximately 20.2 million weekly viewer.

Since then, the genre has come a long way and made a significant impact on the esports scene. The MOBA genre first came to light with the release of Starcraft's custom map, Aeon of Strife, but that was quickly overshadowed by the rise of a new mod for Warcraft III, Defense of the Ancients, also known as DOTA. Looking for the best MOBAs to sink into?

However, this requires a much higher voltage in order to make the jump. HID (which stands for High Intensity Discharge) light bulbs are filled with xenon gas, and there is no filament instead, a spark is created inside the HID bulb between two electrodes. These can cause a hot spot on the glass, which can cause the bulb to fail within minutes. The downside is that halogen bulbs must be made of special glass and handled in such a way that you don't leave fingerprints on them. Halogen reacts with the hot filament to help create a larger amount of light that is much whiter in color, because the filament burns hotter. Burning hotter allows them to give off more light. Typically, incandescent light bulbs have the filament in a vacuum, but car headlights are filled with special gases in the halogen family (usually iodine or bromine). The newer LED and Xenon HID lights use a different system, and are much more efficient, producing more light, and less heat, from a given amount of electricity. ![]() Simply put, a common light bulb has a filament and when electricity is applied, the filament gets very hot and reaches a state of incandescence (glows bright red/orange/yellow). Incandescent light bulbs are not very efficient - about 5%-10% goes to making light and the rest makes heat. Indeed, most cars today still use lights based on his original designs. Step forward Thomas Edison, the inventor of the incandescent light bulb, who came up with first long-lasting headlamps for cars that could handle the vibrations. ![]() But then again, these cars were only traveling at the pace of a brisk jog. It's fair to say that when it came to lights, most drivers were still in the dark. Later, technology advances included gas-burning lanterns and kerosene lamps, similar to the ones Coleman still makes for camping. ![]() ![]() Some weeks you have to tighten your belt, and eat for cheap.
