Over the past week, students have said that the university has not engaged with them on transformation. It had been planned last year in order to address issues of transformation on campus. It would be sending the signal to students as if they didn’t do what they did here, that we’re not hearing them and we’re not engaging with them,†she said. €œWe can’t proceed because the very people who we are wanting to engage with have left. Judy Favish, UCT’s director of institutional planning, agreed. €œIt would be incredibly disrespectful to a major body of people to attempt to continue right now,†said Titlestad. Those who were left in the room were asked to come up with a consensus. Once they were gone, Soudien calmly revealed that the university had expected a demonstration from students, but was now unsure of whether or not to continue the seminar. On their way out, the students brushed past vice chancellor Max Price, who stood rubbing at his forehead until it turned red. At the front of the lecture theatre, Soudien could only stand and watch as they left. Effectively, the SRC and its #RhodesMustFall followers were gatvol. The walkout had been an orchestrated move, designed to show UCT’s management that the students would not engage with them on transformation and heritage until a date has been set for the removal of Rhodes’s statue. With a final shout of “Amandla!†he led students out. Mahapa concluded his speech, saying that he would not participate in the dialogue, owing to the university’s refusal to acknowledge the issues students had raised. “Sons and daughters of Africa, who are the keepers of your memory, the guardians of your souls?†€œFor too long the narrative of this institution has silenced the voices of the non-white student,†Mahapa said, as he read from a prepared speech. ![]() Soudien, who balked at the hands that were raised in front of him, consulting the panel and it was agreed that Mahapa could take the lead. But Titlestad never got to speak.Ĭrain Soudien, the deputy vice-chancellor of transformation and chair of the meeting, was barely halfway through his welcome address when students interrupted him and demanded that Mahapa be allowed to speak first. ![]() Nick Shepherd from UCT’s Centre of African Studies and historian Owen Kinahan rounded out the panel. Mahapa had been scheduled to speak after Sally Titlestad, a heritage consultant. Those who remained all seemed to be asking: “What now?†RA’EESA PATHER reports. The students took their protest outside, leaving surprised staff and management behind. Ramabina Mahapa, the president of the University of Cape Town’s Student Representative Council, had just led a walkout from a seminar that was meant to unite the SRC and university management in a dialogue about heritage, symbolism, and signage on campus.

The claims in this video are completely baseless and defamatory and it is unfortunate that Mr. We're humbled by the support of our thousands of customers who trust us to provide accurate and transparent grading. Wata Games is the trusted leader in collectible video game grading and we're honored to play a key role in this booming industry that we are incredibly passionate about. Update: In response to this story, we've received a statement from WATA addressing the allegations in Karl Jobst's video. If you're wondering exactly how this speculative market is drawing such large and improbable sums, Abramson has an excellent (and lengthy) Twitter thread that explains his findings, and Karl Jobst's 52-minute video is also a fascinating exploration of the evidence and allegations so far. Various copies of the game in significantly better condition regularly sell for thousands of dollars ( another recently example graded 9.4 on the 10-point WATA scale ended proxy bidding at $43,200 back in July). ![]() This particularly funky Excitebike went on to sell for a still-substantial $1,800, which includes a $300 buyer's premium. So how much money does "blue seal" privilege net Heritage annually?- Seth Abramson August 24, 2021 That beat-up, disgusting, low-grade, used copy of NES's EXCITEBIKE is at $500+ in proxy bidding, so it may go for $1,000+ in the live auction tonight. At Heritage, mold gets a *blue* seal.- Seth Abramson AugDoes it matter? Hell yes. At Comic Connect, they have to sell red-sealed games. The red seal-again, as I understand it-warns buyers of this, and consequently significantly reduces sale price. As I understand it, moldy games eventually disintegrate, even in WATA cases. Abramson believes this may indicate preferential treatment for Heritage Auctions. However, a mouldy copy of Excitebike sold recently (24th August) by Heritage Auctions - which has very visible mould across the front of the box - was rated 5.0 but carried a blue sticker rather than red. ![]() One example, a mouldy copy of SNK's Alpha Mission for NES up for sale at Cosmic Connect, has a grade of 6.0 on a red rating sticker on the top right of the box - a clear indicator that the game inside isn't in the best shape and, according to Abramson's understanding, specifically that mould is present (on the back of the box in this case). ![]() 5/17/2023 0 Comments Extract zipx files free online![]() ![]() Max file size is limited by your device RAM.

Speedrunners are going to have a field day with this game and unfortunately, I didn’t have the patience to work out why some dude had managed to beat a level in 1.2 seconds when I was barely getting through to the end in 20. Now that I’ve completed the game, I’ve gone back through each world to earn points to try out abilities that I hadn’t picked up before. The replayability potential here is great. I hope you have the same trouble as I did. I won’t spoil the final level because it’s great. The last level took me over 100+ tries to beat and could be really frustrating sometimes. It felt amazing to finally beat a level you were stuck on, and boy did I get stuck. Clustertruck makes you feel like a truck jumping God and then slams you back into the ground like the amateur truck jumper you are. Despite that, I feel like this is all by design. One level I’m flying throughout the air without a care in the world, and the next, I’m slamming my fist on the table in frustration. What struck me the most, was how the difficulty in each level fluctuated. Each world’s theme varies and takes you from the barren desert to medieval villages, all the way up to hell. Clustertruck has a lot of levels, over 80 in fact. The slow-mo power up was also great, and just added to that matrix feel even more and it was exhilarating to watch trucks fly past me in slow motion. The grappling hook led me to my death more times than not on the later levels, but it was fun swinging from truck to truck on the easier ones. Some aren’t so helpful as they are fun, though. The jetpack was my favourite and allowed me to skip over a lot of difficult parts simply by flying way over the top of them. All the abilities in this game are really fun to use, and I felt that each one changed how I played in a significant way. ![]() You can have two at a time, one on your left click and another on your right click. ![]() Like most games these days, Clustertruck has a number of abilities for you to choose from. I never felt that the way the character controls was hindering my cool moves. This is where the cool matrix like feeling comes in, and it felt amazing to chain difficult jumps together. One level had me jumping across trucks impaled on spikes and it took me a few tries (over 50) to beat it. Levels soon start getting hard, though, with large rocks falling down onto your pathway and stopping everything in their tracks. As well as jumping on top of the trucks, you can jump on the back of them for a height boost allowing you to clear several trucks at once. Clustertrucks first world starts fairly easy and has you jumping over trucks with minimal effort. Good soundtrack or subliminal messages? You decide. I found the music would will me on to get one more level in before I shut down the game and helped me to feel immersed in the environment. Each level has it’s own variation and I found myself turning my speakers up, rather than turning them down. Sometimes when I’m reviewing a game, I’ll turn the sound down to listen to a podcast or my own music. The soundtrack for Clustertruck, is awesome. Aesthetics of the game are minimal and I’d more than likely be saying the same thing if I was running the game on a potato powered calculator. There’s a few settings in game that allow you to turn off things like bloom and V-sync though. There’s not much more to say about performance, as the settings are the standard unity ones. Hopefully, this is something that will be fixed on launch. I never experienced any crashes while playing, but starting up the game was a nightmare and more often than not, crashed to the desktop. What I did experience though was a lot of crashing. Performance on my machine was great and I didn’t experience any frame drops or hitching. You, the hero, or a guy who’s finally realised transporting cargo over dangerous terrain isn’t worth it, must jump, dodge and weave your way to the finish line. It even comes without the rubbish plot! Clustertruck is a game about truck drivers who’ve never driven a truck before and are completely oblivious to their immediate doom.

Gone are the days of throwing 1080 kickflip-to-indys. Instead of a 3D world packed with thousands of obstacles to skate and a seemingly infinite number of tricks and combos, it stood on simple 2D graphics and difficult, addicting gameplay. The first OlliOlli broke away from the very successful formula developed by THPS and Skate. Ridiculous tricks like the Human Dart grind, the Pizza Guy, and the Sith Saber Spin cement the fantastic, absurd tone of the game. Pick a level, choose a skater, and get ready to shred. It's no big deal to throw a 900-degree spin or grind for miles at a time with a few button presses. The game's signature arcade-like feeling is perfectly on point in this game. And a host of new secret characters showed up, including Darth Maul, Doom Guy, and the Demoness. But delightful new levels like the Foundry, Skater Island, and the Cruise Ship made their first appearance. ![]() There weren't any big changes from the previous titles, other than the addition of the revert, which let players string even more tricks together. It took the classic formula set out by Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Pro Skater 2, and built upon it. ![]() Even though it was released over 15 years ago, it's still one of the highest-ranked video games of all time on Metacritic, putting it alongside some of the best PlayStation 2 RPGs. But many players agree that the third title in the series reigns supreme.

You are in your work → commit → work → commit cycle, and when you decide to push your work your push is rejected, because there's been parallel work on the same branch. I think you should use git pull -rebase when collaborating with others on the same branch. The key point is that Alice & Bob are simultaneously merging their local branches to a shared remote branch. Master in this example could just as easily be a release branch or dev branch. Note that the specific branch being merged into is irrelevant to the example.
