People range from being barely competent and cheap to being highly skilled but costing a lot of money. You run the team and can hire/fire employees. They fit into categories such as Mechanic, Agent, Engineer, Physical Therapist, etc. I actually dug the management sim of WRC 9. Some of these races are fairly long, so messing up 5 minutes and 45 seconds into a 6-minute race can be fairly depressing. You could gate them behind the difficulty system, or make them purchasable content for a race. So, if you make a mistake, you can either restart the race or respawn your vehicle on the track for a time penalty. This is an OK solution? I’d still prefer Rewinds or Flashbacks. ![]() Like with other simulation rally games, there’s no Rewind or Flashback system in place. This incurs a time penalty during the race though, so you have to weigh the options of how much you want to repair versus how much time you want to spend doing it. If your car is really messed up, you can opt to go over this 45-minute time limit. You can also just replace certain items like the headlights or bumpers if they are too damaged. Doing a headlight swap might only take 4 minutes, but bringing your gearbox up from 52 percent to 100 percent might take a half-hour. This breaks down into you doing two races, you are given 45 minutes to repair your vehicle, and then you have to do two more races. The 45 minutes lets you repair the engine, suspension, bodywork, etc. Rally Championships WRC 9/NaconĮvery so often you’ll have to do a Rally Championship. Even though there is another racer on the track, this is basically a glorified time trial. Then, you race on one path before gradually shifting over to the other path, while the other car does the same thing. Think of this as a kind of slot-car race track, and you’ll get the idea. You and another car will be on a road track with a wall separating you. The other five percent is racing against another single car. I said above that Rally makes up about 95 percent of the racing you’ll do. All it is, is you racing your car on a track with maybe a few obstacles and that’s it. There is a training mode but it doesn’t actually teach you anything. This is an actual line from your co-driver said during a race, “And right five short over crest into left four tightens three eighty.” WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS MEAN? WRC 9 doesn’t even bother to introduce concepts to new players either. Going completely overboard with terms, which only a real Rally fan would know or understand. So, your co-driver will say “Right, turn 5” and you’ll know need to make a right turn with a low difficulty soon. Basically, a 6-turn is extremely mild, 3 is somewhat average and a 1 turn is basically a hair-pin (extremely sharp) turn. Turn System Ahoy WRC 9/NaconĪs with the recent Dirt games, WRC 9 uses the 1-6 turn system, which I’m sure has a name but I don’t know it. A pop up appears with a quick time to show how behind or ahead of the next racer you are. Each route is divided into five sections and the only way you can even see how well you’re doing compared to another racer is by completing a section. There are no other cars on the road, it’s just you, all on your lonesome. The goal is to try to get to the end of the path as quickly as possible. It is basically a time-trial of you against the clock. Quite simply, Rally racing is about getting to the end of the route. ![]() So you’ll traverse rain-soaked Kenyan paths to the blizzard-like conditions of Sweden to sunny asphalt in Japan, and more. At least the races are on a variety of different surfaces and weather types. ![]() ![]() WRC 9 only has Rally racing for 95 percent of its entire gameplay loop. There is another race type, but Rally is almost all you’re going to see. The problem is, it’s a racing genre that I’m not a huge fan of and I find kind of tedious. WRC 9 is competently made, has some cool PS5 features, and is generally a decent racing simulation. Honestly, this is going to be a fairly short review. Platform: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC Review: WRC 9 FIA World Rally Championship And while I can say it’s a good game, it is decidedly not the racing experience I look for. So, of course, I was handed WRC 9 FIA World Rally Championship to review. Anytime a racing game comes down the pipeline I’m usually the one to take it because I have the most experience, I generally like them, and I can point out stuff others might not see.

![]() The pans have a rough surface that make them more durable than smooth ones. Eggs fried up well with no oil and were easy to release with just a tiny nudge from our spatula. In our sear test, steak browned quickly and evenly in the skillet and quickly formed a nice, flavorful crust. The pots and pans are strong but easy to move around with thick, stay-cool handles. Even their tempered glass lids are oven-safe up to 425✯. The pieces features many of the same great qualities like a dark interior and exterior that hides stains, a sturdy design and glass lids and it can stand up to high heat - they're oven-safe up to 600✯. Our best overall ceramic cookware set replaces a discontinued set from the same brand. Surface feels rough but cleans very easy.Here are the best ceramic cookware set you can buy in 2023, according to our tests. The ceramic pots and pans that stand out have good nonstick properties, are easy to clean and handle and can stand up to harder tests like browning a steak. We test them the same way we test traditional nonstick cookware: we see how evenly they heat and how well they can cook eggs with no grease, brown a steak, simmer sauce, boil water and clean up. In the Good Housekeeping Institute, we've been testing ceramic cookware sets for years, in addition to traditional nonstick cookware and nonstick pans, stainless steel cookware, Dutch ovens and more. Some types of ceramic cookware are made from clay, baked in a kiln and glazed, but the majority is made of metal glazed with ceramic. When compared to stainless steel cookware, it offers the benefits of higher-heat searing and even heating often without the heft and the burdensome cleanup. It can typically handle higher temperatures than cookware made with PTFE aka Teflon, but the downside is it wears faster so it won't be as nonstick for long. Ceramic cookware is a type of nonstick cookware that's made with a different set of water- and grease-repelling materials than traditional nonstick cookware. But I also wish the same thing on my 2012 Mac. although of course I do wish it were faster. On my Chromebook, I think for most of my basic editing (e.g., filmic RGB, denoise, contrast equalizer, color balance, lens correction, highlight reconstruction, haze removal), when using uniform masks, it does an acceptable job performance-wise. I am usually processing 16MP 12-bit RAWs. I also use darktable on my 2012 era Mac mini w/i5 and 8GB RAM. I've been using darktable for a while on an 2019 Intel i3-equipped HP x360 with 8GB RAM. I just don't want to return to the slow experience I had when running Lightroom via a Windows VM on my Linux machine, prior to switching to Darktable. Photography is only a hobby for me, with one trip a month or so outside of the current situation. I'd like to hear from those running DT using a Chromebook (or Chromebox) with 4 gigs and up, to see if it's tolerable. I just wouldn't want to downgrade that performance if I switched to a Chrome device. To be clear, I have no performance issues with my current setup. In practice though, the Linux container/virtualisation might degrade performance. I think that 8 gigs of RAM on a modern Chrome device should result in a faster experience than my Ubuntu machine. As my small gaming itch can be scratched with Stadia, running Darktable is the final thing I'd need to be able to switch back to Chrome OS full time. I currently use a roughly 5-year old Linux laptop with 8 gigs of RAM, Intel graphics and an i5-6200U. Is anyone happy with the performance? Specifically, using Google's implementation of Linux app support, rather than Crouton. I've seen a bit about this on other threads, but nothing huge.

![]() When you hold the Micro 9, you really do feel like you have taken a full-size model and shrunk it down to a compact size that can be easily concealed. Each one offers a different combination of color, grips, and slide serrations. In fact, there are more than 20 variations of the Kimber Micro 9. The finish is part of what sets Kimber apart from other 1911 guns and the extensive Micro line gives plenty of options. With the Micro 9 series, Kimber went all out with their finishes. Let’s look at the details of this little CCW gun and see how it holds up on the range. That brings us back to the Kimber Micro 9 and the special edition Bel Air. Today, the name Kimber is synonymous with 1911-style guns. Next, Kimber moved to New York, and they continued to make 1911 handguns. Kimber was then partnered with another company to build a line of 1911 handguns. Greg Warn was pushed out after the investor acquired a majority investment in the company. The new company was named Kimber of America. In the early 1990’s Greg Warn, one of the original founders, revived the company with the help of an investor. That company later filed for bankruptcy protection and ultimately its assets were liquidated. The company ran into financial issues and was sold to another company. Most would assume they started the company to build the 1911’s we know and love today. In 1979, Jack and Greg Warn, founded the company, originally called Kimber of Oregon, and started building quality. Kimber is known for their quality and even more, their distinctive looks. The Kimber Micro 9 includes 12 separate series of 1911 style guns, with the Bel Air being in the Special Edition series. ![]() The battery packs a lot of power and has a capacity of 100 amp-hours. It should be discharged to a maximum of 50%. The manufacturer recommends avoiding over-discharging batteries, especially when they are in series or parallel connection for a longer life span.

However, the energy resolution of NSE does depend on the wavelength used for the measurement. In NSE, the resolution is not coupled to Δλ/λ since the energy information is encoded in the Larmor precession of the neutron spin (Mezei, 1972 ▸). This leads to a reduction of Q-space coverage and neutron flux. Increasing the resolution can be achieved by decreasing the incoming neutron energy and/or Δλ/λ. In comparison with conventional inelastic neutron scattering (INS) techniques such as time-of-flight or triple-axis spectroscopy (TAS), neutron spin-echo (NSE) spectroscopy offers several key advantages.įirst, in classical INS the energy resolution is strongly coupled to the incoming neutron energy and the width of the wavelength band Δλ/λ. ![]() For instance, CAMEA, a modern spectrometer of this type, has recently started operation at the Paul Scherrer Institute (Groitl et al., 2016 ▸ Janas et al., 2021 ▸ Allenspach et al., 2021 ▸). The importance of these questions has been addressed in terms of the development of multi-analyzer spectrometers at various beamlines worldwide. Similarly, the diffusion in ionic liquids and solvent-based electrolytes has been attracting great interest (Lundin et al., 2021 ▸ Burankova et al., 2018 ▸ Adya et al., 2007 ▸ Osti et al., 2019 ▸). Since many batteries rely on ion exchange and/or the ionic conductivity of lithium and hydrogen, determination of diffusion mechanisms in these materials is essential in understanding and improving this performance (Hester et al., 2016 ▸ Kuznetsov et al., 2021 ▸ Li et al., 2021 ▸ Klein et al., 2021 ▸ Okuchi et al., 2018 ▸). ![]() Another major field of research where such instrumentation is required concerns hydrogen- or lithium-based functionalities in solids. For instance, such high-resolution spectroscopy over a large dynamic range promises unambiguous identification of quantum-spin liquids (Paddison et al., 2017 ▸ Shen et al., 2016 ▸), where knowledge of spectral details such as the existence of tiny gaps and the structure of the low-lying modes is key. In magnetic materials this includes spin-frozen states in classical spin glasses and highly correlated spin states in geometrically frustrated systems (Musgraves et al., 2019 ▸). Key scientific questions that require high energy resolution over a large Q range involve, for example, the investigation of ground states without long-range order or well defined excitations. The need for high-resolution neutron spectroscopy over a wide range of momentum transfers, Q, has motivated major advances in neutron instrumentation in recent years. To illustrate the feasibility of TIGER, this paper presents the details of its implementation at the RESEDA beamline at FRM II by means of an additional velocity selector, polarizer and analyzer. In turn, the thermal MIEZE option for greater ranges (TIGER) closes the gap between classical neutron spin-echo spectroscopy and conventional high-resolution neutron spectroscopy techniques such as triple-axis, time-of-flight and back-scattering. The use of thermal neutrons increases the range of validity of the spin-echo approximation towards shorter spin-echo times. The second advantage is that multi-analyzer setups can be implemented with comparatively little effort. This allows for the study of spin fluctuations in ferromagnets, and facilitates the study of samples with strong spin-incoherent scattering. The first is the possibility to investigate spin-depolarizing samples or samples in strong magnetic fields without loss of signal amplitude and intensity. MIEZE has two prominent advantages compared with classical neutron spin echo. ![]() A modulation of intensity with zero effort (MIEZE) setup is proposed for high-resolution neutron spectroscopy at momentum transfers up to 3 Å −1, energy transfers up to 20 meV and an energy resolution in the microelectronvolt range using both thermal and cold neutrons.
