![]() As we all know, historically the film and television industries have relied on dedicated technologies for specific tasks. It seems clear Apple would like us to view the 10.0.1 update to Final Cut Pro X as a signal of intent.īefore we consider the function(s) of XML in contemporary workflows, it may be useful to understand where the impetus to transfer projects originates and identify the issue XML attempts to address. For those of us who were startled by the omission in June release of FCP X, the absence will perhaps become notable for how short-lived it was. In large part, the foundation of the Final Cut Studio ecosystem was built on the interchange of XML files between different applications. "The ability to export and import XML (E xtensible Markup Language) files is a key component of many existing workflows and something a lot of Final Cut Pro editors rely on today. ![]() Make sure you read the full text over on his blog as he gives step by step instructions on how to write FCPXML to automatically build a simple edit in FCPX. Hopefully he won't mind us reproducing the first paragraphs of his article. Jonathan Eric Tyrell writes a dam fine article and he has put a lot of time into this post about the new XML for FCPX, it's called FCPXML. With the recent update of Final Cut Pro X to 10.0.1, an XML import & export feature became available.This article might be a very good place to start from to get an understanding of this flexible tool.

Roughly 30 self-produced copies were burned on CD-R and shared among friends, with a few copies being sent to reviewers and labels. The music on the EP has been described as emo, industrial, dream pop, psychedelic, shoegaze, trip hop, and vaporwave. Notably, the EP's liner notes only credit the band members by their first names: Owain, Andy, Shaun, and John. It was taken from a panel of Mint na Bokura, a Japanese manga series by Wataru Yoshizumi spanning from 1997 to 1999. ![]() The cover artwork for D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L has since become the band's defining iconography. Davies has stated that their first extended play, D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L, was recorded between 19, with Wright serving as the group's producer. After an unsuccessful visit to a studio, Panchiko eventually began to produce music in their basements and bedrooms using cheap equipment. They also performed in Battle of the Bands competitions, but never won and rarely received positive feedback. The band initially performed live covers in local pubs despite being underage. The music they made was primarily influenced by Radiohead, Super Furry Animals, and Ultrasound and other bands like Air, The Beatles, DJ Shadow, Joy Division, New Order, and Nirvana as well as A Grand Love Story by Kid Loco. Davies has stated that otaku culture had an influence on the band's lyrics and image, describing himself to be a fan of anime soundtracks, JRPGs, Final Fantasy, and Studio Ghibli. ![]() Panchiko's band name is derived from a misspelling of " Pachinko," a mechanical game originating in Japan. The band consisted of childhood friends from Nottingham-Owain Davies, Andy Wright, Shaun Ferreday, and John (his surname has never been disclosed). Panchiko was founded sometime between 19 when its members were 16–17 years old and nearing the end of secondary school. The band's debut album Failed at Math(s) is slated for, followed by their second full tour in the United States. As of 2023, they have over 700,000 monthly listeners. In November 2021, they amassed over 10 million streams on Spotify. In December 2021, the band performed their first show in over twenty years in their hometown of Nottingham, after which they embarked on their first tour in the United States. Panchiko has since released two compilation albums remastering their older music: a reissue of D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L combining their first two EPs and Ferric Oxide (Demos 1997-2001). This was unbeknownst to the band until 2020, when Davies was found and contacted by a fan through Facebook. The EP's status as lost media led to a dedicated cult following and a community devoted to tracking down its band members. The band first received public attention in 2016 when their 2000 demo EP D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L was discovered by a 4chan user in a charity shop in Sherwood, Nottingham and shared online. ![]() A year after the revival of Panchiko in 2020, the band was joined by two new members, guitarist Robert "Rob" Harris and John Schofield, who replaced their original drummer. Formed sometime between 19, it originally consisted of lead vocalist and guitarist Owain Davies, guitarist and keyboardist Andrew "Andy" Wright, bassist Shaun Ferreday, and a drummer named John. Panchiko is a British indie rock band originating from Nottingham, England. ![]() We strongly suggest you use a Wechat Official account. Those advertisers who would like to specify exactly with which accounts they would like to advertise often consider KOL (key opinion leaders) route rather than WeChat official account advertising. WeChat Marketing Step 1: Registering a WeChat Official Account There is no WeChat marketing without a business account, so the first step you need to take is to register a public account on the app. Advertisers have no way controlling and specifying exactly where their ads should appear. At the moment, WeChat is the one deciding on which accounts ads should be served. In the past, WeChat official account advertising has been criticized for low CTR and the lack of control on the advertiser’s part. PhD, master, bachelor, high school, primary schoolĬurrently following your public account, already using your app, collected a WeChat coupon from ads within the past year, and showed interest in your previous ads during the past year. Single, married, newly married or raising a child WeChat would immediately show how many users are in each of the chosen combination of criteria. Here are some of the examples of WeChat official accounts advertising banners: Minimum daily budget is set to RMB 50 for text/image ads and RMB 200 for videos. CPM prices range between RMB 5 and 25 depending on the city type and ad type (video ads are more expensive).ĬPC is bidding based with the minimum bid set at RMB 0.5 but would most likely be much higher than the minimum, especially for highly competitive industries. There are also two models available: CPM and CPC. Running WeChat account ads may also be significantly cheaper compared to WeChat Moments ads – the minimum required to start is set to RMB 1,000 (~USD 150). Who can use the WeChat official account ads?Īt present, all types of accounts are eligible to run official WeChat account ads and there are no limits on the industry types like in the case of WeChat Moments ads. WeChat official account ads are displayed in the form of a banner appearing at the bottom of a WeChat article published at another WeChat Official Account. For example, it can send messages in groups, manage users, analyze data, create votings, invite members, and even connect with third-party applications. WeChat official account ads involve WeChat advertiser on one hand and WeChat publisher on the other. ![]() Likewise, I have bills that vary throughout the year in a relatively predictable fashion – or even are exactly predictable (such as credit cards which are being tracked in Banktivity), when I go to submit these transactions they really should have a relevant estimated value rather than what I hard-coded in the template transaction 3 years ago or whenever the template transaction was entered. Making this a manual process is just thoughtless. Some things I will want to review before they are posted, but I have a BUNCH of things that are recurring bills that are the same amount every month. Probably my biggest pet peeve: while I can set up a scheduled transaction list, there is no way to have any of my regular monthly transactions added to the register automatically. Most of these I’ve approached Banktivity about at some point by leaving suggestions or at least verified that these features are “still in the pipeline” and probably will be forever. I have been pretty shaken by some of the bugs to the extent that I now have a cloud of uncertainty around most of my accounts and, if I am talking with an advisor, I have to manually double-check the information before presenting what Banktivity has to show.įollowing are some cons and pros to Banktivity that brought me to this point. Couple that with some unpleasant experiences with the support group – not malicious, just condescending – and I started looking for a replacement personal finance tool again.īanktivity ultimately greatly increased the amount of work that I needed to do to maintain any semblance of up-to-date information. I haven’t seen the growth I was hoping for, and I have encountered far too many issues in working with it that I’m not willing to wait any longer to be someday resolved. I have since become disenchanted with Banktivity. In late 2018 I decided that Banktivity (which had *just* rebranded from “iBank”) had the comprehensive set of features that I needed, and so I migrated to this platform.īanktivity was still a bit rough around the edges, but it had just been overhauled and they looked like they were eager to build a world-class personal finance solution so I tolerated some of the fairly glaring shortcomings and found workarounds with the assistance of their support folks. I was disenchanted and looked around for a native MacOS product that could handle my personal finance needs. Their support had gone very much downhill, updates to the product were unspectacular and, frankly, it seemed as if Intuit regarded the Quicken product as just an advertising means to push their TurboTax product. I continued to use Quicken for a little over 25 years when they started faltering and appeared about to go out of business. This continued until I got my first job and decided I wanted a more polished system, whereupon I migrated over to Intuit’s Quicken product. I have tracked my finances in detail since my university days in the mid-80s when I created a complicated set of macros in Quattro to handle the basics required to record, track, and reconcile all of my accounts. I basically don’t trust the Banktivity registers and it takes WAY too much time manually inspecting, auditing, and repairing to be worth my effort. TLDR I moved from Quicken to Banktivity a little over 3 years ago and now I’m going back. 21 commentsĪrchives Archives Categories Categories Housekeeping adminMarc on Endless Pool Fastlane in a Salt Water Pool – Issue.adminMarc on Moving Back to Quicken from Banktivity (Long).Norman Dallura on Moving Back to Quicken from Banktivity (Long).Ann on Moving Back to Quicken from Banktivity (Long).iOS 15 Managed Pasteboard and Intune MAM/MDM Protections June 1, 2022. ![]()
![]() It’s not like it’s a mind boggling difficult job. The corporate world would be far better off collectively getting behind someone like RedHat, Ubuntu or the Apache foundation, and developing something whose primary goal was to do the job they need done well, not extract money from them. Whereas the open source clients do their best to interoperate with everything (albeit with mixed success), Microsoft appears to go out of their way to make their users' lives difficult if they try to use Outlook with anything bar Microsoft servers (online or Exchange). The only solution was a complete uninstall (which of course Microsoft's installer doesn't know how to do, so it must be done manually, stumbling around in the dark), and clean install. I last saw that message 25 years ago, when Outlook was the only choice. It announced Windows was running low on resources, then exited. After getting past that a week or two later it refused to start. During the move of data from the old machine to the new one some part of Windows (perhaps Defender?) announced a file contained copyrighted material and deleted it. I was asked to help a work colleague a month or two ago. ) continually changing how they do things, and in Microsoft's case gratuitously making interoperability difficult.Īs for the Windows Outlook client - pfft. Tackle your to-dos Add a task Add your task from right in. Many of the deficiencies in both arise from the proprietary providers (Google, Microsoft. Google Calendar brings all of your calendars together in one place, so you can manage work, personal life, and everything in between. But enduring it is hard.)įeature wise, both Evolution and Thunderbird both are very mature and equally capable. This tutorial explains how to use a recipe of Davmail + Fetchmail + Postfix + Courier IMAP to interface standards-based e-mail clients with ExchangeÄôs OWA, and to integrate corporate and non-corporate e-mail accounts into a single inbox and one that is not buried inside the store of the MUA. I realise it's necessary, they are doing their best to reduce the pain and what pain remains must simply be endured. (Lord, how I look forward to Firefox/Mozilla getting past this period. So, bug and stability wise they seem to be on par. Thunderbirds dependence on Firefox, and the current rapid internal refactoring Firefox is undergoing combine to break things even faster than Gnome. Only being able the use Google Calendar with the GMail account sharing the same email address is a complete PITA, making it unsuitable for many applications. And as you say sync'ing calendars with Google is one of them. I've already come across a fair few bugs in Thunderbird. I swear some Gnome libraries have a lifetime of split milk, and when they change everything breaks. Google Calendar connected using CalDAV (neither cache nor read only selected). And a lot of dependence on how Gnome does things, like online accounts. But the bugs particularly in the mail composer. Take small steps (first, get davmail working by connecting to your exchange data from an IMAP mail/calendar client like thunderbird/evolution etc.) and make sure to back up *all* your data.I've been a long time Evolution user (decades, literally). But if I go to edit this event on the Google. VDirSyncer supports several calendars and formats (Google Calendar, local icalendar files etc.) Maybe you can use VDirSyncer to sync everything to ical-files or a Google Calender and exploit one the many existing org sync tools (ical2org, org-gcal, etc.) to configure the workflow you desire.Ī word of warning/caution: there will be a lot to configure and chances to wipe all your data. The event disappears from my > Exchange calendar and it appears on my Google calendar - just as > expected. (once sync'ed I import to org via ews2org above). I use davmail as "interface" to synchronize two exchange calendars with VDirSyncer, see. ![]() I.e., it allows you access exchange servers using the IMAP protocol instead. For exchange calendar => org sync, ews2org is currently sufficient for me, see ĭavmail in itself, does not synchronize anything, but acts as an interface bridge between the exchange server and IMAP. ![]() In my workflow, orgmode is the main center of operations, so I sync uni-directional *to* org, not from. |
