This version, ostensibly recorded live at the Sydney Stadium, was in fact a studio recording, overdubbed with the sound of a real audience.Īn alternate version was recorded and released outside Australia: in the United States (as "Real Wild Child") on Brunswick and in the UK on Coral. O'Keefe was the first artist to record it, on his debut EP Shakin' at the Stadium, released on the Festival label. The Living End performed the song at the 2008 APRA Awards to mark the anniversary. The band Jet and Iggy Pop recorded a cover version that was released to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the original release. The release date of the single, 5 July 1958, is considered the birth of Australian rock and roll. In an article by Clinton Walker that tries to answer the question, What was Australia’s first rock’n’roll record? the writer quotes Dee Jays’ saxophonist – and the song’s co-writer – John Greenan corroborating Casch’s account and elaborating upon it. Some of the dance patrons came to blows with wedding guests in the men's toilets, and within minutes the brawl had become a full-scale riot that spilled out into the street, with police eventually calling in the Navy Shore Patrol to help restore order. According to Casch, as O'Keefe and the Dee Jays played at an upstairs venue, an "Italian wedding" reception was taking place downstairs. Sydney disc jockey Tony Withers was credited with helping to get radio airplay for the song but writer credits on subsequent versions often omit Withers, who later worked in the United Kingdom on pirate stations Radio Atlanta and, as Tony Windsor, on Radio London.Īccording to O'Keefe's guitarist, Lou Casch, the song was inspired by an incident at a gig in Newtown, Sydney, in about 1957. While most sources state that O'Keefe was directly involved in composing the song, this has been questioned by others. " Wild One" or " Real Wild Child" is an Australian rock and roll song written by Johnny Greenan, Johnny O'Keefe, and Dave Owens.

I suppose this part was added to make sure your ship was upgraded, but I found it annoying, as you can still be killed if you're upgraded (it only takes one rock to put an end to that ship). If your ship is not properly upgraded, you will be destroyed. Near the end of section one, there's a bit where these two volcanoes will shoot out tons of rocks randomly. The other sections have more of an enemy base feel to them as you fly through narrow passages and avoid A LOT of bullets! Turrets will shoot from overhead, robots will run along the ground and shoot, pods will fly out of bases, and all of these will produce a crazy amount of bullets on screen that can be very hard to dodge.Īs much as this game is adored, I do have some gripes. Well, it's a video game, so it doesn't need to make sense. I don't know if a programmer was drunk when he suggested they put easter island heads in space, but they listened to him, and somehow the series maintained these ugly heads all the way through. These have become a staple in the Gradius series. Section three is especially memorable for its easter island heads (which shoot rings of death!). There are six sections in the game, so you'll fight this guy five times.Įach section is unique. Each time this boss increases in speed, but besides that, all he does is move up and down and shoot. It's this round machine that shoots four lasers while moving up and down. However, the boss is the same thing in every section except for the final boss. Each section begins with opportunities to snag upgrades, moves into the main part with a change in music, and ends with a boss. Gradius does not have levels instead the game is broken up into sections. But that brings up another thing: this game is freakin' hard! If one stray bullet touches your ship, the whole thing explodes as if precious TNT were attached to its hull! The only protection you can get is the shield, but that will take quite a bit of upgrading to acquire. Here's the problem: if you die, you'll lose all your upgrades and start over with nothing that's right, your ship will be slow and powerless. Red ships and turrets will always drop upgrades, and you'll want to get them. These upgrades are the most important part of the game. Speed up will increase your ship's speed slightly, missile will give you the ability to shoot down (they also travel along surfaces), double will give your ship a second gun which shoots diagonally up, laser changes your gun from a typical gun to a faster laser, option gives your ship a pod that shoots along with the ship (very helpful), and ? is kind of like a surprise (sometimes it will produce a shield at the front of the ship, which is also very helpful). When you snag an upgrade item, the first one will become highlighted you can press B to upgrade or you can wait and increase in another area. At the bottom of the screen is listed the different upgrades in this order: speed up, missile, double, laser, option, ?. The main point of the game is to get upgrades which bad guys drop and enhance your firing power. The game starts with your ship moving very slowly and shooting a simple shot. The game is a space shooter (you have some serious problems if you didn't know that by now). This one I'm talking about here is the NES port, released in 1986 it was developed and published by Konami, master of the arcades. Of course, it was hugely successful, so it received several ports. The original Gradius was released in the arcades in 1985. It is perhaps the most famous shooter series in video game history. A game that is very difficult, yet soars high after all these years. Actually more just about ANYTHING anyone could talk to me about, pertinent to marine life. Software was the week link in my plan to "digitize" the names I had been writing down.ĭuring my time in Chuuk, I had become known for my interest in animal names and any thing at all about the behavior, marine animals. I also had a portable HP printer that I rigged up to run off of 12 Volts. Airforce CAT Team (short for Civic Action Team). I had been living off-the-grid on the island of Tol, using a 10 Watt solar panel to trickle charge a 100 Amp-Hour deep cycle battery that had been given to me by someone in the U. I might have had Microsoft word I don't remember. But my mother did not understand that to use a computer, one needs software. I had received a computer as a gift from my mother, a Toshiba laptop, a really nice one. My intention was to learn the names of animals so I couild discuss them with local fishermen, in furtherance of my plan to study traditional knowledge of marine life. I had been standing on the precipice of a project to collect animal names in the language(s) of Chuuk Lagoon, where I was living, teaching, and learning. An article was describing or announcing something to do with the Free Software Foundation (FSF). My first whiff of it came from an article in InfoWorld, which I had subscribed to because I was interested in computers, and because it's free. dillo: a delightful lightweight browser-I use it for documentation.įor me, Free Software is a big deal.posterazor: blowing up a graphic to print on multiple pages/panes.powerthesaurus: together with the emacs package by the same name.Others: a short list of programs useful to me: I have tried urxvt, su, xfce4-terminal, alacritty (another "gpu-based" terminal), I can only imagine that an entire world exists consisting of the meta data and meta functions of terminals. I am puzzled that I have not been able to use kitty consistently in my dropdown / scratchpad-based terminal setup-borrowed from Luke Smith. The developer of kitty, Kovid Goyal, has produced some other intriguing pieces, including Calibre and an interesting keyboard-based browser, vise. I have little need at this point for extra features. I am uncertain how much advantage is derived from being gpu-based, or whether I need to take special steps to compile it with support for my gpu. I am intrigued with the "gpu based" part of the description. On my archlinux and manjaro boxes, kitty has great colors, and it is simple. The well known xrvxt was difficult-for me-to set up. Of late, I have struggled with terminal emulators. Kitty :: "the fast, featureful, GPU-based terminal emulator" On the exa web site is found comprehensive documentation of the numerous options. It's a pretty amazing take, not only colorized but with some excellent features as well. I installed it from the community repo on my Archlinux machine. I recently stumbled upon exa, a superior (IMHO) ls workalike. The best defense of Stallman is to point to the GNU Manifesto. No question, Richard Stallman's ideas are radical, when taken against the background of a society which is consumer centered and oriented around proprietary commercialism. Many of them comprise little more than offhand name calling. Over the years, I have been sickened by comments I have seen on various mailing lists and forums. Stallman deserves a good deal more respect than he has gotten. Stallman has also resigned his position at MIT, citing " a series of misunderstandings and mischaracterizations" as the reason for his departure. Step down from positions of leadership in our movement.". With the goals of the free software movement.

John Sulivan, the executive director of the Free software Foundation (FSF), has announced Then they say, "I'm just a shot then we can die," meaning after he shoots him the guy he shoots will die and the guy shooting him has nothing else to live for. And they say, "I know i won't be leaving here with you," because he is going to kill him. I do no it is about a sniper though because he almost has his crosshairs lined up ready to shot the guy. I think it is about Franz Ferdinand's death, but he was not shot by a sniper. Patrick from Philadelphia, PaI don't get this song.Cody from Lititz, PaSinead from Canada this is not a zeppelin does sound a little like trampled underfoot but not enough that i noticed it until i read this.and im the biggest led zeppelin fan there is.but that might be a reason i like this song considering i only listen to classic rock and this isnt.Matt from Houston, TxDude, you are not the biggest zeppelin fan ever.Anthony from Morton, Pawell if he says he is, then he is.If you call this 'ripping off' then we can say Oasis ripped off Street Fighting Man and Imagine as well as Stone Roses ripped off Brown's 'Funky Drummer ' Valo from Moscow, Russia FederationThey hardly ripped off the song by LZ.Am I talking about snipers or am I talking about some kind of romantic situation?" And so I could write so you can't really tell what I'm talking about. "You know, where you both know you're into the other but no one wants to kind of, like, expose their vulnerability and make a move, and let the other know how they feel. "This image of the two snipers left quite an impact on me it felt like a very good metaphor for the kind of romantic situations that we sometimes find ourselves in," he said. The next day, "while mucking about," Kapranos came up with what would eventually become "Take Me Out." 'Cause as soon as the other makes a move, the other will know where they are and will take them out." They're both kind of tucked away, hidden from each other, waiting for the other to make a move and expose themselves. "Jude Law is the Soviet sniper and Ed Harris is the evil Nazi. One of the themes of the film is this stand-off between two snipers," he explained in a Song Exploder podcast. "It's set during the Second World War around the siege of Stalingrad. Kapranos watched the 2001 war film Enemy At The Gates the night before the idea emerged for "Take Me Out." The Jean-Jacques Annaud-directed movie served as inspiration for the song. When the two girls, who have the wagon, see Hammy, they start to attack him, hitting him with a book and spraying him. The next day, RJ uses Hammy's help to get a wagon full of cookies by making Hammy pretend to have rabies. This causes Verne to be wary of the humans. Verne is uninterested, but the others agree and during the night, they eat the leftover food inside a GARBAGE CAN, but a woman named Gladys Sharp arrives and chases them off. It is then that RJ the Raccoon appears and reveals what Steve is actually called, before telling the animals of all the food that the humans have. Verne goes to the other end of the hedge and becomes a victim to several accidents, such as getting sprayed by a hose and hit by a hockey stick, sending him flying over the hedge. They then hear Steve talking (really a woman behind the hedge). Not knowing what it is, they name it Steve. As Verne and the others eat berries they have found, Hammy the Squirrel sees a hedge and brings the other animals to it. Verne and the other animals have woken up from hibernation. After RJ saves them at the end, he gives up his place as leader to RJ whom he has finally accepted into their family. He is best known for his vibrating butt when a situation is not right, he uses that as a sign to back off. He is genuinely caring for his family and will do anything to protect them. He never really trusted RJ (and he was kind of right for not trusting him). He has his own ways of doing the daily tasks which everyone else goes for, but his world is turned upside down when RJ introduces his chaotic lifestyle into the mix. He does not have much emotion when he talks. Verne is "naturally tentative" box turtle, who is the leader of the foragers. CleanMyDrive has you covered with the handy "Eject All" button located at the bottom-right side. Want to eject everything in one shot? No problem. You know that everything mounted on your desktop eats away at your hard drives and memory, right? If, for example, you have a mounted disk image that's no longer in use, just hit the "eject button" in the drive's box to instantly get rid of it, saving space and memory. When you're done, just close the Finder window. CleanMyDrive takes you right inside your HDD / USB flash / external drive and shows you the contents in the Finder. Once you're done with the cleaning, if you want to access a volume, just click its icon. Just hit "clean" and the app will carry out the appropriate maintenance – regardless if it's spring time or not. If your drives look anything like those shown in the image above, some sweeping is needed. It sits there nice and quiet in your menubar, and it waits for you to pop open its sleek UI, which shows you all your mounted drives and disk images with several options for each. And while CleanMyDrive does this niche justice, it's really the interface that makes it an incredible piece of management software. You see, cleaning apps are a dime a dozen. Although the Kiev-based studio designed it mostly for cleaning unwanted junk from our flash drives, I think it serves a much better purpose – drive management. Mac users can download the app and use it indefinitely to maintain their removable media. Ukrainian developer MacPaw is offering CleanMyMac free of charge at the moment. Basically, CleanMyDrive combines everything Finder lacks for managing drives. Besides its cleaning function, CleanMyDrive is intended to be used as a monitoring utility to automatically clean disks on unmount, to see the available space on all mounted drives via an intuitive menu, and eject all drives in one click.

A sorcerer summons the Queen of the Succubi and she is poised to subsume Diablo’s throne, setting her up as Diablo 4’s big bad. More importantly, it'll mean victories are neither clean nor guaranteed,’ he added. In addition, Lilith’s involvement was spelled out for us in the trailer. ‘The first thing you will notice is that we are going back to the franchise's darker roots,’ game director Luis Barriga said. In its extended cinematic trailer, the concept of Diablo 4 looks quite grim, which is something that Blizzard has consciously leaned in to. Diablo 4 was confirmed, it’s in development, and it will be coming to PC and consoles. Well, it’s been a turn-up for the artbooks. One depicted Lilith – an antagonist in Diablo 2 – holding the skull of Diablo, suggesting that she will be the villain in a possible Diablo 4. The book would show off ‘over 500 artworks from Diablo, Diablo II, Diablo III and Diablo IV.’ That got fans hot under the collar, so you could imagine what it was like when images from the book surfaced online. Then, German magazine GameStar featured an advertisement for an upcoming Diablo artbook. The mobile-exclusive Diablo Immortal was announced at BlizzCon 2018 but lots of fans felt disappointed as sources told Kotaku that the big reveal would be for Diablo 4. This was revealed through a leaked internal document at Activision which also detailed the Call of Duty: Warzone 2 release date.Diablo 4 was officially confirmed at BlizzCon and promises players that the new game will explore the ‘darker roots’ of the successful multiplayer dungeon crawler (via GameSpot).īlizzard’s unspoken Diablo project had been lurking in the shadows for quite some time, and when its first-person Starcraft shooter was binned in favour of Diablo and Overwatch, rumours ran wild. You can’t have an online game without loads of in-game purchases and a battle pass to keep players coming back for more.īlizzard is expected to announce its Diablo 4 release date and pre-order program during The Game Awards in December. In fact, everything they are working on and have revealed so far shows Diablo IV as a live-service online multiplayer game. The company won’t release the new game in the same format as Diablo 3. While Blizzard has not confirmed the existence of a battle pass in Diablo 4 or in-game purchases, after the release of Diablo Immortal (the game with millions of dollars worth of pay-2-win purchases), including a similar structure would not be surprising. This currency is detailed as “can be used to purchase current and future cosmetic items in the cosmetic shop”. The higher-tiered game versions include a Battle Pass in the package as well as a currency called “Platinum”. The big issue here is the additional monetization features. The game version will also come with a fancier mount and early access to the game. In this version, players would get access to the full game and five cosmetic armour sets, one for each class. The Diablo 4 “Option C” version in the survey details the most expensive package of the game. READ MORE WhatsApp Releases Native Windows App That Doesn’t Need a Phone These game versions came with different incentives but the real concern isn’t the fact that there are three game versions but instead, the additional items across each one. The survey was sent out to gamers in Germany to ask them how they felt about certain versions of Diablo 4 at launch. However, a new survey has detailed a Diablo 4 battle pass and even an in-game currency used to purchase cosmetic items. We already know that Diablo 4 will feature an “ever-evolving world” with content updates and added features. Meaning you should be prepared for loads of in-game purchases and even a battle pass system. Diablo IV is set to launch in 2023 and by the look of things, it will be the most Activisiony game Activision has ever published.
