An organization can order a device from Apple or a reseller and have it sent directly to an employee. It enables certain management styles and workflows that were not possible before. On macOS the manual (“user-approved” MDM enrollment) cannot be automated and cannot even be performed over remote control. The process with Configurator can be automated, aside from the manual connection. However, Apple provides two means to supervise an iOS device: with DEP and by manually connecting an iOS device to a Mac with Apple Configurator. This is similar to “supervised” iOS devices. Furthermore, Apple states that going forward, the “approved” level of MDM (either by DEP or explicit user interaction) will be used for more configurations in the future. When a Mac’s system volume is erased and macOS is re-installed the process starts over, keeping the Mac managed by the same MDM.Īpple has also made DEP+MDM a requirement to manage Kernel Extensions without user interaction. They have been pushing to this for a few years now and it has also been the way to manage iOS devices.ĭEP is a process where a new device (iOS or Mac) is registered to your organization at purchase and you can assign it to your Mobile Device Management server through Apple’s website.Īt it’s very first boot, the Mac will check with Apple’s DEP servers and get the MDM’s information, register with the MDM and then the management settings take over, adding configuration, software and, with some management systems, local tools to install and manage non-AppStore software. Deployment Strategies Going Forwardĭevice Enrollment Program and Mobile Device Management (DEP + MDM) is certainly Apple’s deployment method of choice. Even if that is not the case, then it is a safe assumption that future Mac releases will contain the T2 system controller or something similar and have the same Secure Boot features (or lack thereof). There is speculation that the current TouchBar MacBook Pros might get Secure Boot added in a future update to 10.13. MacAdmins will all need to plan ahead and look at the options that are on the table for Mac management going forward. Also it is to be expected that all new hardware from Apple going forward will have Secure Boot and probably not NetBoot. So the news of NetBoot’s demise has not been exaggerated. But this gives us enough confirmation of facts to know: There are probably a few more details which will come out as other admins get their iMac Pros in the following days and weeks. the iMac Pro does not only kill imaging and NetBoot, but also the remaining EFI ROM tones (also noted in this support article, startup chimes already went away with 2017 MacBook and MacBook Pro models, thanks to Arek for pointing that out).for Bootcamp, Secure Boot will verify the Windows bootloader.Secure Boot requires an internet connection when it attempts to fix the boot files.FileVault/Full Disk Encryption is not enabled by default.reseting the NVRAM will reset SIP, but not the Secure Boot setting.re-enabling Full Security in the Secure Startup Utility requires an internet connection.you can still erase the system volume without a local administrator’s password.you cannot disable Secure Boot or enable External Boot before the first installation as there is no local administrator.a local administrator’s password is required to disable Secure Boot or enable External Boot.macOS build for the iMac Pro is 17C2120 the iMac Pro will not NetBoot, even with Secure Boot disabled.Update: Tim Perfitt now as an excellent detailed post on his findings here. Most of this happened on Twitter, which is a quite hard to put together afterwards, so here is a summary: (there were several members of the Mac Admin community involved, thanks to all of them!) Tim Perfitt of Twocanoes Software ( Winclone, SD Clone, etc.) got an iMac Pro.įor obvious reasons he immediately looked at the details of the new boot process, and has found some details that were speculated or unknown so far. Please check it out: “ macOS Installation for Apple Administrators“ I have written a book which expands on this topic and is regularly updated.

I was really impressed with the amount of kinky shit these girls were eager to do for nothing at all. Watch these horny Redditors get facials, get fucked doggystyle, fuck themselves, and whatever else you could possibly imagine. There were gifs and videos of these sluts, too. Hot babes spreading their juicy pussy, showing off their tits, displaying their sexy lingerie, riding dildos, fingering themselves, taking showers, and more! And it doesn’t stop at just pictures. Well, I have to say, nearly every picture I saw here was fucking awesome. But quantity doesn’t always mean quality right? There were around 30 or 40 new hot posts made today, and the day wasn’t even half over yet. With so many active users there are posts made every day. Hundreds of Sexy New Pictures and Videos Uploaded DailyThere is always some new content to check out. Though most of the male posts don’t make it to the top, so you’ll want to head over to new if you want to see those. So, if you’re a horny chick who needs some amateur dick pics (as if you don’t get enough unwanted ones in your pm’s) then you can flick your bean to some of that. Also, I keep saying babes or chicks because that’s what I prefer to jerk off to, but everyone is allowed to post here. Hot gets you the best, most upvoted pics or vids while new lets you see a little of everything. I prefer to organize by new or hot myself. Like all subreddits, you can organize the feed by new, hot, top, rising, and controversial. It basically guarantees that all the hot babes here are giving consent to have these images up here. That way you know everyone who posts is doing so without the pressure of making money or anything like that. This sub is only for posting picks for the sheer thrill of it. No advertisements or anything that makes it look like you’re trying to make a buck here. You also don’t have to worry about chicks posting teaser photos to try and get you to sign up for their dumb fucking snapchat subscription. It prides itself on verifying posters so that you’re not getting fake posts or any of that bullshit. Verified Users, Consensual Uploads Only, and Tight ModerationLike I mentioned up top, this subreddit is all about exhibitionism. So, you can always expect a steady stream of content to jerk off to. And when I was on around 12 thousand people were currently online. That is a fuck ton of people, especially for an adult subreddit. They are just shy of 2 million subscribers. But what I do know is that this subreddit is one of the biggest out there for adult content. Can’t really track down dates too easily with subreddits. R/gonewild has been around at least since 2009, but it could be longer. To get started, make a quick account with a username and email, then make sure to allow NSFW boards so that you can see that awesome conet I’ll be talking about in the review. There are hundreds of thousands of boards out there, so get exploring if you like this one! And it’s easy to sign up. Each subreddit is basically a board where you post or comment on posts related to that board’s topic. If you don’t know of Reddit or haven’t used it, then I’ll give you a very fast rundown. Sign Up at to Get Startedr/gonewild is a subreddit over at. Well, search no more, because I have just the place for you to get your freak on! That’s not what you want, and I bet you wouldn’t want to post somewhere like that either. Either that or you get totally fake “exhibitionist” porn from studios. Most sites are full of fake ass people catfishing others with pics of popular cam girls or some shit. But safe venues for these kinds of pictures and videos are lacking. It doesn’t matter whether its posting photos online, going to anonymous cam sites, or engaging in some daring sexual escapades out in public. We all have a bit of that drive inside us. Let the tiddies free, go spread eagle, bend over and show everyone your plump ass, or whatever other kinds of kinky photos you want to take. Maybe you’re one of those babes who wants to show off the body they have worked so hard to achieve. Reddit Gone Wild, aka r/GoneWild/, aka Reddit GW! Are you a fan of amateur sluts showing off their hot bodies for all of the internet to see? I mean, who the fuck isn’t? That shit is the best. It increases your magic attacks while decreasing the cost of spells. The Golden Chest in the Hidden Cave’s first room has The Architect, a magic staff which shoots orbs sideways. This will allow you to open all the Golden Chests that are scattered all over Cat Quest 2‘s world map. Once they’re dead, you can now grab the Golden Key. These mobs can do 9,999 damage, killing your characters in a single blow! Again, play defensively from a distance. The mimics are all level 99 and they only have one attack - a melee-range stomp. The Golden Key is just beyond your reach and you need to take out these enemies to obtain it. There are three mimic chests here just like in the first Cat Quest game. You can now open the door which leads to a small chamber. It’s the same level 99 cave mentioned earlier. For now, head to the Hidden Cave which is in southeastern Felingard near the Novem Ruins and King Lionardo Ruins. You don’t have the means of opening Golden Chests just yet. You can see its stat boosts below, and do take note of that extra perk that lowers the cost of magic spells.Ĭat Quest 2’s Hidden Cave and Mimic Chests You’ll also be given the Gentle Suit which is already level 25. Eventually, you’ll defeat the group and they’ll reward you with a ton of experience points and gold. You’ll slowly whittle them down one by one. Cast Freezepaw when you can to slow them down while shooting them with your wand/staff attacks. Don’t attempt to melee the four bosses as they’ll just swat you like a fly with their attacks. I was around level 81 when I did this, and it took a while. Once you accept this quest, you’ll be pitted in a battle against the four members of the dev team and they’re all level 99. If you still need help with that, then head over to our Cat Quest 2 leveling mini-guide. Also, make sure that you’re around level 75-80 so things are more manageable. Once you speak to the fourth and final Gentlebro, you’ll be given a quest called “This Is It.” It’s imperative that you save first. (Don’t worry, they won’t do that, although the warning did make me create a backup save, haha.) They’ll start spawning random NPCs and changing the music, and they’ll even joke about deleting your save file. As usual, this easter egg is a nod to fans of the game since you’ll be humored by the dev team from The Gentlebros. Once you’ve leveled up a bit and you’ve made your way there, be prepared for a treat. Check out our Cat Quest 2 water-walking mini-guide for more info. Note: You’ll need to be able to walk on water to reach this area. Getting here is the first step in a fairly straightforward sidequest that’d let you open Cat Quest 2‘s Golden Chests. Open the world map and pan your camera down and then to the right. In Cat Quest 2, it’s in the southeastern portion. Just like in the first game, Founder’s Island II is tucked away in a corner of the map. You won’t be able to access the area behind the door until much later in the game once you’re able to tackle Founder’s Island II. Of course, we’ve also got our guides and features hub to help you out with other concerns.ĭuring your trials and tribulations in Cat Quest 2, you might’ve noticed a location in Felingard called the Hidden Cave (which has a level 99 requirement). Note: You can also check out our official review of Cat Quest 2 for PC. These are all in Cat Quest 2 and they’re the focus of this mini-guide. A major fixture, just like the first game, is the existence of Golden Chests and the Founder’s Island. That’s because you can still grind for extra levels while finding some of its endgame secrets. Cat Quest 2 may have a main story that you can beat in half a dozen hours, but the adventure doesn’t stop there. Pop a wheelie-makes you go really fast, but you'll be unable to steer.

Gets dragged behind your cart on a rope for an even shorter amount of time than the parachute, but the drag effect is much stronger. Enough to drop you back one place if it's a close race though. This pops out the back of your cart and slows you down a little for a few seconds only. They give you sudden acceleration and temporarily increase the top speed of your cart. These are just like the zipper patches on the track itself. Great for catching up with someone - hopeless for passing them. If anyone comes within about 20 meters, you'll be pulled towards them and end up glued to their tail until the magnet 'expires'. If you activate a magnet then it hangs around for about 15 seconds. They ricochet off the sides of the track and only explode when they hit a cart. Fuzzy blobsĮven slower still - a kart can outrun them quite easily. Slower than the regular kind, but they track the nearest kart and are quite hard to shake off. The effect on a cart is to stop it dead, so it has to accelerate again.

Eat enough of them, and the next question mark cube might yield not only one, but up to five powerups at once. The herring coins on the other hand make for a fine appetizer.

Supertuxkart is an arcade-style game where driving faster than your opponents will do the trick. Llama a Isidore Ducasse "el intolerable conde de Lautréamont" y afirma que Rimbaud fue "un artista en busca de experiencias que no logró". Si no vacila en ser neutro con Mae West, complaciente con un tal Alan Griffiths (título de su novela: Of Course, Vitelli! ), es implacable con Corneille, sangriento con Breton, desdeñoso con Baudelaire. As Saer puts it on pages 31-32 (ellipses added in the longer citation that follows), "una sola pasión puede compararse en intensidad a la anglofilia de Borges: su francofobia" : Second, I was equally amused by the way Saer links Borges' English-friendly literary preferences to Borges' intensely squeamish opposition to almost anything French. Among the recipients of Borges' often dubious English-language esteem, Saer cites Ellery Queen and Mae West-whom he claims Borges praised for her contributions to "modern literature" and not to the art of film. Wells, Chesterton, Leon Bloy) es complementada en esta antología por la exaltación o la mención de autores de tercero, de cuarto e incluso de ene-orden" (30-31). "Su inclinación conocida por ciertos escritores de segundo orden (H.G. First, I was tickled by Saer's almost trash-talking depiction of Borges' near "obsequious" Anglophilia. For our purposes, at least three points Saer makes about JLB are worth repeating for readers without any Spanish. Saer's "Borges francófobo", inspired by the 1986 publication of the Borges anthology Textos cautivos (a collection of book reviews and book talk Borges wrote from 1936-1939 as head of the "Foreign Books and Authors" section of the Buenos Aires-based "society" weekly El Hogar), is a short, smart, and often funny piece of essay writing that pleased me for the way it subverts the trusty book review format to draw attention to Borges' inordinate disdain for the giants of French literature (note: those who only know Saer from his excellent but abstruse novels may be surprised at how down to earth his literary criticism is). In anticipation of what I hope will prove to be a long-term commitment to bringing you more literary criticism and literary history to ooh and ah about here on Caravana de recuerdos, here's a quick, inaugural highlight reel of Juan José Saer's stupendous 1990 piece on fellow Argentine countryman Jorge Luis Borges.

Most clearcoats are two-coat applications. Īpply the recommended amount of clear.When choosing an alternate formula, choose the one with the right metallic that matches your vehicle. Coarser metallic makes the paint look darker, while a finer metallic makes the paint look lighter. You can actually have a paint color match, but it’ll appear differently than the car because of a mis-matched metallic. When matching metallic colors, always be sure that the metallic flake is the proper size. See the box called, “I Don’t Like My People Green” for detailed information on the three dimensions of color and how to adjust them correctly.Ĭhoose the right size metallic flakes. To do this, you’ll have to evaluate the three dimensions of color: chroma, hue and value. It’s time to evaluate the differences in the vehicle finish and your paint formula. Although this effect is used in custom painting, it’s not a desirable thing to have when trying to match a factory finish.Įvaluate the three dimensions of color. The biggest problem when using tints outside of the original formula is that they tend to cause “metamerism.” This is the term used in the paint industry to describe a finish that changes color, or hue, under different lighting conditions. A lot of tints aren’t designed to be used with each other, and some tints cannot be used in metallics. Never use tints outside of the formula unless your paint supplier has told you that it’s compatible. When tinting your paint, always use tints that are in the original formula. When all else fails (you’ve chosen the proper alternate and are using the proper reducer and gun technique), you’ll need to tint a color to create a match. Color-corrective lighting, a type of light that mimics daylight, will help ensure that you have the proper cast on the vehicle when trying to evaluate a match. Incandescent lights tend to give off a red cast, and fluorescent lights can give off a yellow or blue cast. Many times, a color will appear to match in your shop, but it won’t match in the daylight. You should evaluate all colors in natural daylight. The last variable to consider before attempting to tint a color is your shop’s lighting. If you don’t have enough paint on the vehicle, it won’t match.Įvaluate the color in the right light. A lot of today’s paints are very poor hiders and require a color-keyed ground coat.
