Quell the shivers with some hot cocoa and curl up in a blanket. Winter is coming! As the last of the leaves fall from the trees, it’s time to move the fun indoors. It’s the show’s indulgence, and with any other subject it might have read as tacky or like naive camp. These mixed timelines give actors space to perform the fear, austerity, and grit required of survival across numerous points in their life. ![]() It weaves together scenes where a character is dead immediately with scenes where that character is still alive, across one episode - often using similar framing techniques to create the impression that the pandemic is always at every point of its inception, that every character lives in a liminal space where they are both alive and dead, both corporeal and not. The show layers the Act 1, Scene 2 monologue from Hamlet - Hamlet is still dressed in mourning for his father, three months later - over the scene of a child receiving a text message from a morgue. This rhythm is an effective departure from the storytelling of the book, putting various timelines in more consistent conversation with each other. Their connections grow apparent over the course of the show, as episodes shift time and subject, between the more immediate collapse of society and life 20 years after. As in Mandel’s novel, these people’s lives are intertwined. There’s the traveling Shakespeare troupe - Kirsten has become an actress with them, years later - that performs plays around the Great Lakes in a path they call “The Wheel.” There are the people of Severn City Airport, in Michigan, a diverted flight that turned into a long-term community of survivors. There’s Kristen, the young girl orphaned by the pandemic, and Jeevan, the man who takes her in. The show makes piercing work of this source material, tracking the lives of various people. (The horror of this is only clearer after months of learning incubation periods of COVID variant strains, in the process of researching which tests can be trusted at what times after exposure.) A handful of communities rise out of these horrors, making their way forward in the rubble of a now defunct society. Mandel’s apocalypse results from a flu that has no incubation period and causes near-immediate death. ![]() Clarke Award-winning 2014 novel of the same name into a 10-episode limited series.

I’ve always fallen on the anxiety side of things, and one morning in the first week of March 2020, I decided to follow the impulses that screamed “better safe than sorry.” I took a sick day from work. I still remember my last pre-mask grocery store run, an impulse trip to Ralphs to stock up on essentials. Jeevan tells the clerk, in no uncertain terms, to head home. As he dissociates through checking out the groceries, the lone cashier asks him if the flu is worth worrying about. Jeevan goes to the grocery store - with young actress Kirsten, for whom he has become an accidental babysitter - and loads up numerous full carts of food. His sister Siya, who works at a hospital, has warned him to take shelter, to find his brother Frank and barricade themselves indoors. Midway through the Station Eleven pilot, Jeevan Chaudhary has a panic attack, as he realizes the world is about to permanently change. ![]() To open the Applications folder, click Go in the Finder menu and then choose Applications.

![]() One last thing, 3DCoat has the potential to achieve this before others! good things are already there and others I see beginning to be developed.modeling first! Remember that modeling must live and be fun.since AI exists out there. Whereas subd are much softer and more malleable but also damn full of topology constraints. Although things are obviously evolving all the time.įor creating objects with curved surfaces Nurbs programs are the only alternative paradigm to Subd, but of course as you know, they are not easily modified once they are cut.they are good for those who have very precise ideas from the beginning, or/and those who want to copy reality. Moi, Plasticity, Fusion360 and others: MOI is still better than Plasticity for the reasons above. When in some of these you can get curved surfaces this happens only because of SubDs. More or less the same thing applies to all existing programs: Zbrush, 3dsmax, Maya, Modo, Blender, Mudbox, etc. I think it will be possible in the future. SDFs seem to finally offer a way forward.īut it seems that that at the moment you can't get patch nurbs type shapes. Ok, in 3DCoat you have many ways to get soft objects, but if you have to ''copy'' real objects (like a car) you will last a long time or fail at all. What more could you want than the complete freedom that voxels offer in combination with the other tools? But is not yet possible a new modeling paradigm.that allows for curved surfaces (fairly accurate ones) without all the rules and issues of polygons and nurbs.especially subd's are hell. IMHO, 3DCoat is, now, at the top for #1 and #2. I think it's called solid modeling, for those who chew on engineering programs.ģ- curved surfaces: solid shapes composed of curved surfaces, can be modified on the 3 axes, so like patch nurbs or SubD meshes. The goes where strong the Boolean's technique. In general I classify all possible forms in computer graphics as:Ģ- ''flat'' forms: ''hardsurface'' composed of planar surfaces and intersections of primitives. Keeping in mind the constraint you gave, also very important to me: ''It offers complete modeling freedom without any concerns about topology / mesh structure.'' And the constraint/concept of ''CONCEPT.'' Modeling for artistic and purely visual purposes, and only then possibly other applications of the final model. Sorry, I think SDF still does not offer complete modeling freedom.Ĭomplete freedom means being able to model all existing or fictional objects. Once you're done the result can be meshed. There's realtime blending of forms and (vertex) colors. It offers complete modeling freedom without any concerns about topology / mesh structure. Lately I'm in love with SDF (Signed Distance Fields) modeling. If I need a neat polygon topology I simply auto-retopologize. I almost never use polygon modeling tools anymore, not in other 3D editors as well. ![]() Note: If you uninstall the printer driver and your product name remains in the Print & Fax, Print & Scan, or Printers & Scanners window, select your product name and click the – (remove) icon to remove it.
![]() This macadamia milk totally knocked it out of the park. Moo Is Moot Latte Da Macadamia Milk: 10/10 Overall, I landed on a solid 7/10 rating. As far as other uses go, I won’t be pouring this plant-based milk much. I don’t think milk is really supposed to taste like fruit, but I came to the conclusion that this Pacific Foods Hemp Milk would be most delectable in a smoothie. It tasted super bright at first, but the aftertaste resolved to a slight fruitiness – which caused some confusion in my milk-focused brain. My first sip was a roller coaster, though. The creaminess factor was definitely a plus from my initial tasting experience. After a vigorous shake and pour, I instantly fell in love with how frothy the milk got. Stepping into the plant-based milk ring at 60 calories and 3 grams of protein per serving, this is one of the more nutritious bevs on my taste-testing roster. I’m not an absolute stickler when it comes to red flags in food like some people are, but I fully understand the concerns, since gums are known to cause gut complications. Pacific Foods Unsweetened Hemp Beverage: 7/10īefore the girlies go mad, yes, this hemp milk is made with gums like xanthan. I liked that this milk maintained a very fresh flavor over time, and it was absolutely heavenly in the A.M. What can I say? My sweet tooth gets the best of me all the time. It was also sweeter than I expected, which also grants this plant-based milk some taste-testing points. Wow, this sip was criminally oat-y – but that’s definitely not a bad thing for a latte-loving gal like me. ![]() The thicker consistency sets this drink up for a delectable froth, which is probably why the barista army swarms to it. As an oat milk stan, I simply love to see it. One serving delivers 140 calories, but as I said before: who really cares if it’s going in a liquid treat?Īt first pour, the oat milk was noticeably thicker than others I’ve tried over the years. Using the entire oat ups the protein and fiber content in each serving (4 grams protein), plus this Barista Oat Milk has three times less sugars than other oat milks. Willa’s uses the whole oat to make their plant-based milks, making sure production zeroes out on food waste. Seeing that the methodologies for commercially produced oat milks have recently been called into question, this oat milk from Willa’s was refreshing not for my body and my brain, too. |
