![]() Moreover, all this is shown within a future universe that is highly consistent over the full 110 episodes, even if differences between the warring sides tend to be somewhat exaggerated: in many cases whole societies seem to act a bit too much according to a somewhat radical ideology, only to make their following actions be true to form. Almost any motive of rulers or the general populace that might affect a political decision is included at some point in the show, making me at least think to myself: 'They even thought of thát one.' The show does tend, here and there, to lean toward the old 'good soldier, bad politician' cliché, but, overall, it really lacks a clear villain, instead showing each possible side (apart, perhaps, from religious fanatics) from every possible angle. ![]() Again, these thoughts never go very deep, but what strikes one is that so very many possible variables are brought up. With battles involving thousands of battleships and millions of men, simple depictions of large-scale tactics take the place of views of the battlefield itself, and a considerable part of the show is, laudable, devoted to discussions on logistics and military intelligence.Ī larger part still, though, is devoted to discussions on politics, all within the greater autocracy versus democracy question. The war is fully shown from the side of the commanding officers - one of only a very few shows to do so - and does show an appropriate sense of scale. Within the happenings of the show, it becomes apparent that, militarily speaking, at least, a good autocracy has an edge over democracy in terms of speed and decisiveness, and this shows in how the series progresses.Ī large part of the series is devoted to showing the war and its subsequent smaller-scale rumblings. This question is the age-old one of which is better, autocracy or democracy, the problem being that a good autocracy is usually better than a good democracy, but a bad autocracy being worse than a bad democracy. More importantly, the main question on which the whole series hinges remains an open one. First of all, the heroes do have a sense of their own importance, but also the sense to question whether they are all that special, or whether the circumstances of their times have just brought them to a spotlight which people equal to them could never have aimed at. It sounds like your average hero of freedom-versus-tyrant story, but it turns out to be anything but. Both men surround themselves with able staff, who become legends in their own right. This balance is shattered when a military genius with a far-reaching ambition rises on the Imperial side, prompting the Alliance to, somewhat grudgingly, give ever greater backing to the most capable officer on their own side. The series is set in a future wherein the universe known to man is divided into two camps, the aristocratic and absolutist Galactic Empire, and the democratic Free Planets' Alliance, who have been embroiled in a war for some time, seeminglyīeing evenly matched. That is to say, heroic in a very classical sense, being possibly a negative thing as well as a positive. Legend of the Galactic Heroes centers around - you guessed it - a bunch of people who, according to populace at large that inhabits the fictional future this series plays in, are of heroic proportions. What it has, though, is a sense of scale that's unsurpassed in any anime - or, for that matter, any television show - I've seen. In fact, there's absolutely nothing in this series that is wholly unexpected or very deep. Nor does it delve deeply into some obscure theory of science or arts, bombarding the viewer with ideas he couldn't have come up with himself. When I say 'intelligent', I don't mean it to be cunning, surprising the viewer with unsuspected plot Which is a shame, as it's only after about 20 episodes that this series progresses from something that is slow, somewhat overly bombastic, and hinting at more to come to show itself to be one of the most intelligent pieces of anime that's been made to date. That is to say, with 110 episodes, your vote only counts after you've seen 22 episodes, almost a full season, and those who don't like this show probably won't wait for 22 episodes to decide. Synology offers a few different options for backing up to an external destination, including another Synology NAS, a file server, or a USB device, and each has pros and cons. Having a copy off-site reduces this risk. It’s also co-located with your production data, putting it at risk of disaster. Backing up to the same NAS enables speedy restores, however your data is still at risk of hard drive failure. Back up to the same Synology NAS by creating a multi-version local copy. ![]() Synology also gives you a number of ways to achieve additional backups, should you need or want to. When you back your Synology NAS up to the cloud, that completes the strategy with one copy off-site. If you are using your Synology NAS to connect and back up computers on your network, that’s the first step-you have two local copies of your data on different mediums. It means having at least three total copies of your data, two of which are local but on different mediums (read: devices), and at least one copy off-site. The 3-2-1 backup strategy is simple and time tested. In this post, we’ll explain how to achieve a 3-2-1 backup strategy, share some of the benefits of backing up to cloud storage, outline different options for backing up your DiskStation, and give some practical examples of what you can do by pairing your NAS with cloud storage. All the time.) In short, you can store backups on a NAS for easy access, but a NAS itself does not constitute a true backup strategy.įor true protection, you need to implement a 3-2-1 backup strategy that incorporates your NAS with at least one off-site copy-and backing up to the cloud is a great way to do just that. Your Synology DiskStation definitely gives you all of those benefits, but your NAS alone doesn’t fully protect your data from things like a natural disaster, a ransomware attack, or a major hard drive failure (And drives do fail. You probably invested in the NAS to enable easier collaboration and access, speed up restores, make files available 24/7, and achieve a level of redundancy you didn’t have before. If you’re using a Synology NAS for your small business or home office setup, chances are your data is important to you. If the problem is Docker, stop running the problematic application on it and try to uninstall the Docker app.Editor’s note: This post has been updated since it was last published in 2020 to provide more information on Synology NAS backups. Or if the Sharesnap folder takes a lot of space, meaning the snapshots are taking a lot of space, you can remove the snapshot in Snapshot List and space will free up progressively. If you would like to free up the occupied space, you can uninstall the Cloud Station Server without keeping Cloud Station Server settings and previous file versions. This way, you can find out which file or folder occupies your disk space.įor example, if the Cloudstation folder takes a lot of space, you can stop syncing the shared folders via Cloud Station. du -h -d1 (list out the disk usage in each 1st-level sub-folder) cd /volume1 (change directory to /volume1 or any folder you wish)ģ. sudo -i (enter the admin password again)Ģ. After that, make the SSH connection to your DiskStation with the “root” or “admin” account and password, using Putty (see the image below). If you want to check the space usage of each folder, please enable the SSH service in DSM / Control Panel / Terminal, and use Windows software like Putty to access your DiskStation (see instructions in the image above). ![]()
The important thing about buying used anvils, is having a sharp eye and know how for a quality anvil. Now, for brand new anvils your going to pay around the five or six dollar per pound mark. I heard of a few friends, that have paid considerably less that $1 per pound, some other friends who've gotten anvils donated to them for free, and some less fortunate friends, that have paid over $2 a pound. It really is a question of the individuals involved in the sale, and whose the better negotiator. These days however, prices are kind of all over the place. A few decades ago, about $1 per pound was pretty standard. There are a few subtle things to look for when anvil shopping.Īnvils vary quite a bit in price, anywhere from a quarter to 3 bucks per pound. Tips For Buying Used Anvils (from Squidoo) This is a "storyboard" on how to forge a hold down Mushroom holdfast, see link below on how to make it These types of hold downsĪre most useful for holding flat stock on the face Piece to be held down and tap it with the hammer.Īnother tap releases it.

With a standard button-head oval-neck track bolt With full-toe joint bars on each side and held together This is especially useful, if you're like me, and start to get really into something new, spend lots of money, and then lose interest. You don't always need an anvil, especially if you are just starting out! What you really need is mass under the surface you're hammering on. Use some sort of "sacrifical" plateīetween your work and the anvil face so you don't mark the anvil or else. Never, never use your chisel directly on the face of the anvil. It may he more convenient to have a fabricated steel or cast-iron stand hut, where space permits, it is a distinct advantage to have a wooden block. The disadvantage of setting up an anvil like this in the modern agricultural engineering shop is that the block cannot be moved out of' the way. This should he sunk at least 3' into the ground with the grain standing vertically. The liveliness or spring of' an anvil is much improved by mounting it on a wooden block, preferably made from a squared-up trunk of elm. ![]() It is a good plan to chamfer the edges of the square hole so that the hardy sits tight to the anvil face, this is also a convenience when using the hole for setting slightly curved bars. There are two holes in the face of an anvil the square or hardy hole and the round or punching hole. ire left sharp and it is advisable to round these offcarefully with a carborundum file or a portable grinder. On a new anvil the front and hack edges of the face. ![]() ![]() When cutting off with a chisel, the work should always be moved to the table before the final blow to avoid damaging the chisel edge. Anvil patterns may vary for different purposes, but for general work it should have a long and finely tapered bick as shown in diagram to the right which is a `London Pattern' anvil standing on a welded angle steel stand.Īlthough the face or top of the anvil is hardened, the bick and table, which is the square part between the hick and the face, are usually left soft. Working on a bad anvil is like jumping on a heap of sand, whereas working on a good anvil set on a proper foundation is like jumping on a springboard-the rebound from one blow helps towards the next.

The 6-foot-3 California native had one goal and three assists in his first postseason action last season, when Dallas lost its first-round playoff series in seven games against Calgary. “Jason is an integral part of the present and future of our team and we’re thrilled to have him for the next four years,” general manager Jim Nill said.Ī second-round draft pick (39th overall) by the Stars in 2017, Robertson has 125 points (58 goals, 67 assists) in his 128 NHL games.

There is no doubt that early in the season we will see an increase in cross-checking calls and more power plays. In previous years the NHL has tried to crack down on other infractions and call them more frequently, including interference and most recently slashing. While it does get called fairly regularly, there are probably even more infractions that go uncalled over the course of any random game. The NHL has seemingly always operated under the assumption that cross-checking is just one of those things that happens around the net.

Especially when it comes to battles for positioning in front of the net. Not just the fact that it happens on a consistent basis and can result in injury, but that it has not been consistently enforced by the league’s on-ice officials.
