I was wrong for seeing him as some sidekick scab. And it was these qualities that had him promoted from Twilight's #1 Assistant to Queen Twilight's Royal Advisor. Of course, he had three strengths that helped both Twilight Sparkle on her own journey of self-discovery and build friendships between Equestria and nations ruled by initially unfriendly creatures: Diligence, loyalty, and being Twilight's voice of reason. And I guess, from a feminist's perspective, he's the best role model for boys and men to teach them that you'll always be a hero even if you're in a girl's show. Not only does he go from being lazy, greedy, and immature at times, to becoming wiser, generous, and selfless, but he has proven time and again of how he is as much a great hero as his pony pals. However, as the show rolled on, we would see Spike go through quite a development in character. I thought he was just a least interesting character, as well as male butt monkey to his female friends. Since Spike was the only main child, it makes sense that he would have his own rite of passage journey throughout the entireity of MLP:FIM. From being a childish assistant to Twilight Sparkle, to growing into a hero and a royal advisor of Equestria and beyond, becoming a dragon even Spyro would be surprised to meet. Now that My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has ended, we can all say that Spike has become the best dragon Equestria has ever known.Īs I just said, Now that My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic has ended, we can all look back, and see how this little dragon had quite a journey for him. Wonder if he's swoon some dragonesses while he's out on his diplomatic trips. He's probably the buffest Friendship Ambassador ever. And while Spike continues his role as Her majesty's royal advisor, his ambassador job promoted from the dragons to everycreature: Friendship Ambassador to All Creatures. And after many years, Queen Twilight Sparkle's reign has turned Equestria into a better place, where every pony and non-pony creature live together as friends. Even they would meet their old friends once every moon as the Council of Friendship, Spike and Twilight will always have each other back in Canterlot. Then, when Princesses Celestia and Luna declared their retirement, and chose Twilight Sparkle and her friends to reign in their stead, Twilight made Spike her Royal Advisor on the day she was to be coronated (until Equestria's remaining villains interferred). After Twilight opened her School of Friendship to all creatures, Spike sprouted wings, and as he was maturing physically, but he continued maturing emotionally, becoming a true friend. Not to mention, he finally became Sibling Supreme after completing the the sibling rivalry between Twilight and her older brother, Shining Armor. Thus, he has earned the Crystal Empire title, Great and Honorable Spike the Brave and Glorious, and the Friendship Ambassador to Dragon Lands when it comes to Pony-Dragon Relations. He has even saved all of Equestria from time to time, from retrieving the Crystal Heart from the evil King Sombra and saving Equestria from Garble by participating in the Gauntlet of Fire, and help Ember become the new Dragon Lord. After all, it's not what he is that matters, but who he is that does. Nevertheless, he is accepted by Ponykind, and, even though he doesn't bear an Element of Harmony, he is still very important to his very best friends. At one point, he thought he found his father in the lazy, mooching Sludge, but soon discovered the liar's rouge. Being a dragon in a pony world has made him feel like a fish out of water, especially since he was orphaned as an egg with his origin being a mystery. And although he will do anything for his pony friends, he can be lazy and enjoy taking a nap. Nonetheless, he will also speak up when either Twilight or Starlight Glimmer get overambitious. There are times, however, when Spike will get into mischief or his greed for gems and praise get the best of him. And of course, he still has his MASSIVE incurable crush on Rarity, who thinks of him as the "sweetest, kindest, most generous dragon ever," and he will do anything for his glamorous Unicorn friend. He is ever-faithful, has a magical green fire breath that enables him to deliver scrolls from and to Princess Celestia, and has an insatiable appetite for gems. Spike has been best friends with Twilight since she hatched him, and would become a much valued member of Team Pony after the twosome were relocated to Ponyville. Need a helping hand, a quick delivery, or friendly smile? There's one little dragon who can do all three (and then some). Today is Dragon Appreciation Day, and thus, this is the day for Twilight Sparkle's #1 Assistant.

Let’s take a look at some of the aspects of this ARM template. Quick disclaimer: At the time of writing, I am currently a Microsoft Employee This tutorial assumes some familiarity with the Azure Public Cloud platform. You can follow along by forking this repository to your own Project and following the steps below. The repository to accompany this blog post can be found here. The focus will be more on deployment than the creation of the web app, though we will briefly cover that. Testing your deployed Azure Functions API.Creating a variable group in Azure DevOps.Creating a service connection in Azure DevOps.Setting up the Azure Pipeline in Azure DevOps.Creating an Azure Pipelines yml file for continuous delivery.Creating an Azure Functions ARM Template.In this post we’re going to go through the end-to-end automated deployment of a web API created in python using Azure Functions and Azure DevOps. Automated Deployment of Serverless Python Web APIs using Azure Functions and Azure DevOps 1) Selecting a Target Business App for Integrationįirst, we need to select a target application that holds information of interest to Citrix Workspace users. Of particular interest are applications that are regularly used for quick (<1 minute) tasks and are not intuitively accessible to users. Also, applications that enable users to directly interact (e.g. Target business application: Imaginary time-off management SaaS application.approve items) from within Citrix Workspace have much more value than applications that just enable notification of users. Next, we identify key use cases for the selected target business application that we want to integrate into Citrix Workspace. The effort required to implement the use caseįor our imaginary time-off management system, key use cases might include:ģ) Configuring interactions and caching relevant data.The potential time savings that can be achieved by integrating the use case.This is a creative process and should take into account: Once use cases are known, the next step is to identify the APIs that will allow us to extract relevant information from the target system or inject back into it. This step might well involve back-and-forth iterations to the use-case identification because the target system might not provide suitable APIs to implement a use case. The most common API standard today is RESTful APIs, which provide responses formatted using JSON. API endpoint to get pending approvals: GET.For our imaginary case, API endpoints of interest are: Nearly all modern enterprise SaaS applications will implement APIs like that. If the target system uses JSON REST and any common authentication mechanism (oAuth 2, NTLM, Basic Auth, Bearer Auth), chances are good that the system can be integrated with Citrix Workspace seamlessly, using the low-code “JSON integration”-type:Īfter creating the integration, the next step is to configure the API endpoints. To do this, we configure the data endpoints for reading relevant data into the cache. Gorgeous Heart starts off with a smutty but quite frankly ridiculous one-shot in which an elementary school kid and his Dad gang up on the Dad's uke lover.Any data that we want to show to the user (or want to trigger events or actions with) must be cached. No guardianship per se, but still a very emotionally effecting manga.īaby Bitch! is an almost scarily smutty manga in which one of the ukes is a father figure. Seme sleeps with an older acquaintance of his dead father's, who used to be in love with his father. Mishima Kazuhiko often has older daddy-style ukes, like in Papa I love you. So is chapter 5 of My Servant and I - what is with chapter 5s, lol? But this is also an AMAZING manga in which the seme falls into an agonizing relationship with his father's lover, who is also old enough to be his father AND pretty much raised the seme himself. But still, one of the most beautiful and realistic renditions of this possibility I've ever seen.Ĭhapter 5 of Staining the White Pine with Crimson Frosted Snow is a MUST-READ for you, trust me on this - older uke who was his father's best friend and sometime lover and took care of the seme as a child! Eeeeek. And the uke was also his Dad's lover, which. Belonging to the seme's Dad's generation, I mean. Light and Shadow is one of the most beautiful BL mangas you will ever read, and it has a father-figure uke. Yume no Kodomo is excellent it's got the almost-fatherly age-gap AND the whole guardian thing going on, plus the guardian turns out to be an uke. I'm Sorry, Masumi-kun! has a father-in-law uke. But there's often an element of guardianship or at least seniority. (Am I weird? I just find the older ones irresistible, lol.) There isn't always an age-gap, though sometimes there is, sometimes there isn't. Her ukes are REALLY cute, all wrinkly and baggy-eyed. Glad you liked the recs! If you like older father-like ukes, you might enjoy a lot of Ono Natsume's yaoi manga. Lol, that's an EXCELLENT explanation for the icon! I like to entertain myself by constantly thinking up new stories to explain what the heck that bunny's doing. It’s almost like it feels too good to be true that we have another chance. And now I’m thinking, “OK, this is a real thing that’s happening, and I’m going to figure it out.”. But let’s try it, I guess.” Then we got a label, and we had management, and we had a record, and then we had a tour. Meg Frampton: My mindset was, “Sure, that sounds fun. Let’s do all this stuff.” It really was just, “Do you want to write together again? Do you want to make music together again?” We didn’t have really any expectations of putting out an album or touring. It wasn’t, like, “Let’s put out an album. So I called Meg and, just kind of cold, asked her if she wanted to get back together again and start writing music. Why don’t you ask her? Why are you being so immature?” I asked her, “Has Meg spoke about Meg & Dia at all? Or how’s her musical journey? What’s going on with her?” Because at the time, Meg and I weren’t really being very open with each other. On a recent Sunday morning in a downtown coffee shop, the sisters drank tea, and in this interview (edited for length and clarity), they dished a little of it - about themselves, each other, and the opportunity to make music again.ĭia Frampton: I called my younger sister, Jade. Dia, now 32, recorded a solo album, and took runner-up on the first season of NBC’s singing competition “The Voice.” Meg, now 34, came home to Salt Lake City, opened a coffee shop, and explored her spirituality. 14 at Salt Lake City’s Kilby Court.Ī lot has happened in those eight years. The album was released without advance notice on July 26, along with a futuristic music video for the first single, “American Spirit,” and news that the sisters would have their first headlining tour in years, an eight-city tour starting Sept. “It was really nice not to have any outside voices out there, steering the ship,” Dia Frampton said of the duo’s under-the-radar recording of “happysad.” After nearly eight years apart, Utah-raised sisters Meg and Dia Frampton got back together to record an album while nobody was looking. and rear and (if applicable) top as exhaust seems standard as a baseline, and often gives good if not best results. Originally posted by Illusion of Progress:Usually, front and (if applicable) the bottom as intake. This thread inspired/reminded me to do some more testing with my own setup once I change my CPU cooling. PSU fan never really turns on or if it does I never hear it. I have a voltage selector on my case for the fans connected to it (two front and top) and I run them at 7V 12 V is louder. I perhaps should try it as exhaust though, since I have positive air pressure (I refer this for dust cleaning reasons), and it might help slightly with temperatures (namely GPU temperatures if nothing else). My side intake is empty, as having a fan there as intake did little to nothing to temperatures, so it was added noise and dust. Granted, that was with my old CPU and it had a tower style heatsink, and since I changed my platform, I'm on the stock (not a tower style) right now so it could have changed, but I'm changing back to a tower style cooler very soon anyway. I tried the top fan both ways and it wasn't much different, but top as intake gave me the slightly lower results, likely as it brought fresh air in directly in front of the CPU. Reason being the front two intake are obstructed by many hard drives in the way. Top fan as intake isn't always necessarily unorthodox I have mine that way at the moment (I don't have the same case as the OP). Changing just one thing could change things. As always, experimenting yourself and collecting results will give you the best answer though. Usually, front and (if applicable) the bottom as intake. This should provide you enough airflow you'll need. Gigabyte Aorus Z390 Pro Motherboard The front as intake the top and back as outtake. Originally posted by Metallic Demon:Hi everyone, I hope everyone is doing well, I recently upgraded my pc case to a Corsair 4000D Airflow and was wondering the best fan configuration for my build, I have a Noctua NH-U12A CPU cooler with a total of 5 Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM Fans in total (1 on the back with the fan towards the back, 1 on the CPU cooler facing towards the front of the case and 3 on the front of the case facing towards the front) any suggestions would be great and I know there might be the possibility that I have the best fan configuration already, but I'm curious if there're any other configurations I haven't thought of, thanks in advance. I was to drop all other tasks (even the expiring cert lol) and give this guy his small win. I have an "urgent" project to finish by Monday, literally "to give a small win". Today? It's 3:30pm and I can't be bothered to do anything. I did one small ticket - a cert replacement since that was to expire the next day - but the rest was just playing CrossCode. I did nothing the rest of the day on Tuesday, and basically just played games on Wednesday. or flipping him off under the camera on our conference-turn-video-call (switched due to connection issues, because ofc video is more stable than audio-only in his mind). I'm totes disorganized.)Īnyway, I spent most of conference call writing "Go fuck yourself," "Choke on a cat and die asshole," "Shit code, low pay, and broken promises. Never mind that most have time estimates, project tags, details, linked to cards on his boards, columns for project/qa/released, labels for deferred, released to / rejected from qa, finished, in production, are ordered by priority. (Side note: he's yelled at me for ~15 minutes before for being horribly disorganized and unable to keep up on Trello - because I had a single card in the wrong column. The issues? I didn't respond to an email (it got lost in my ever-filling inbox), and I didn't push a very minor update last week (untested and straight to prod, ofc). The call was 53 minutes, and he spent 40 minutes of it telling me how terrible I've been. He told the sales team to get off the call, and then proceeded to yell and chew at me for another twenty minutes in front of the frontend contractor about basically the same things. For various, mostly stupid reasons, the boss yelled at and insulted me for twenty minutes straight in front of everyone, telling me how i'm disorganized, forgetful, how can't manage my time, can't manage myself let alone others, how I don't have my priorities straight, etc. On Tuesday, as every Tuesday, I had a conference call with the rest of the company. And then added in more details because details. I wrote a much longer rant going into far too much detail, but none of that is relevant, so I deleted it and wrote this shorter (believe it or not) version instead. I haven't even wanted to talk to anyone (save my gf, ofc). rar file downloaded and extracted fully, then it could just be an error in the expected sample path in the. Try to go to NI service center and upgrade to the latest version of Kontakt, which should resolve this issue. That means you need the latest version of Kontakt to load the nki file is corrupt and cannot be loaded (unknown), what can I do? * However, you can use the video above that explains how to organise your 3rd party kontakt instruments in a fast and easy to use way. Most of the Kontakt libraries available on the market are made by 3rd party sound designers, so it is not possible to load their libraries into the left hand side Kontakt library tab. As a small sound design company, Native Instruments would require a large annual fee to be paid in order to allow our libraries to come up on the left hand side tabs. However you will only be able to use the instruments for 30 minutes at a time before they “timeout” this is why we recommend only using our libraries with a FULL version of Kontakt 5 :)ĬAN I LOAD THIS INTO THE LEFT KONTAKT TABS? You can use our libraries in Kontakt Player. Then close the Service Center, close Kontakt and then restart it again. Just press the Activate button at the bottom. Most likely, you’ll already see your Kontakt serial number entered under the Activation tab if you already fully activated Kontakt when you first installed it. That will launch the NI Service Center windowand allow you to enter your serial code and activate Kontakt. From the dropdown menu, choose Launch Service Center. Next, run Kontakt in standalone mode and press the help button at the top of Kontakt.Then make sure that all instances of Kontakt or your host sequencer are closed.If you don’t, you can update it through the NI Service Center and follow the update/installation process it leads you through. Make sure you have the full version of Kontakt.That is essential in some cases to allow Kontakt to read/write to your system registry. Try logging out of your computer and logging back in as full system administrator with full permissions and all account restrictions turned completely off.Below is a short (but thorough) explanation of how to reauthorize your full version of Kontakt. However, if you are already using the full version of Kontakt, the “Demo”mode means Kontakt has deauthorized itself due to a registry read/write conflict and reverted to “Player” mode. All our products require the full retail version of Kontakt to work. The reason you get “Demo” is because you are using the free player version of Kontakt, which we don’t support. Why does it say “Demo” when I load library into Kontakt? IMPORTANT - You need a FULL version of Kontakt 5 (Not the free version Kontakt Player) to run our kontkt libraries) * If you just want to get started quickly, just drag the.
