Or even the version of freedom that says if you have a job you’re doing it wrong. I’m not talking about the version of freedom where you assume everybody else is a slave and you’re so smart and good-looking for figuring out how to stack $100 bills. I’m not talking about retirement where you sit on a beach in your swimmers and sip mojitos all day. I deserve a cake in the face for using them in a title. Wealth, freedom, and retirement are three of the dirtiest words on the internet. Start building companies that will outlive you, write books that will outlive you, and make artwork that will resonate to future generations.The hand grenades about to be thrown at me.Become as wise as you personally can, by studying philosophy and applying it to your real life.Help empower others who are weak and need opportunities to do good in society. Study Stoic philosophy, and recognize you have nothing to fear.Increase your earning of money, and start saving 80%+ of your income.Reduce your living expenses to the absolute bare minimum.And if you don’t know how to live frugally and below your means, you will always be a slave to your “steady” income. Just because you’re rich and have lots of money doesn’t mean you have freedom. Remember - it’s not “happiness” we are seeking, but freedom. If you’re a billionaire and a slave to the board, share holders, and cannot even take a 15 minute nap when you want to, you’re simply a (very rich) slave.īecome an entrepreneur, earn money, and use that money to buy your freedom. “Can you take a nap whenever you want to?” The ultimate luxury is free time and freedom- to do what you want to, and to NOT do what you don’t want to do.Īnother saying by Taleb, to gauge how free you are: I only measure success by how much time you have to kill. So if we have enough money to feed ourselves, not die of thirst, or die of the cold - how much money do we really “need”?Īnother quote I like from my buddy Nassim Taleb, In Vietnamese, Cindy taught me that “to work” is ‘lam an’- which literally means, “labor eat”. To have money and to not have to do anything in order to “make a living”. Oh yeah, money is also good for buying our freedom. Money is good to buy food, coffee, and to pay rent. We become slaves to our stuff, our homes, our bills, and our lifestyles. We think we “own” our stuff, but it’s actually our stuff which owns us. With modern credit systems, banks, mortgages, etc- we are now modern share croppers. The way I see it, employment in capitalist society is institutionalized slavery (idea: Nassim Taleb). I learned from my best friend Seneca that when we think we need more money to be free and “secure”, we actually have too much money- far more than we need to secure our personal freedom. How do you know you don’t (already) have too much? If you don’t have debt, if you don’t have a fancy lifestyle, and if you don’t seek to own fancy stuff, it is actually quite easy to buy your freedom. The easiest way to buy your freedom is via the following: However, we need money in order to buy our freedom.īut how much money do we really need to buy our freedom? I’m watching SOLO, and a mini epiphany I had is this:

Each way has its advantages and disadvantages. This is in opposition to Outlook that creates a publicly shareable link and put it in your message. One way that Mail Pilot differs from the other email app that came out this week is that Mail Pilot downloads the files you want and makes them proper attachments. I also attempted to attach multiple files from different services in the same email and it didn't skip a beat. Each service worked just as you'd expect. In my testing, I attached files from Dropbox, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, Transmit, and Box. Utilizing the new features introduced in iOS 8, Mail Pilot has a document picker built into the app that allows you to browse not just your phone, but third party storage like Dropbox. I'm happy to say that Mail Pilot has one of the better implementations I have seen on iOS. This is a wild card when it comes to iOS email app you never really know how one app is going to treat them. I don't send a ton of email, but when I do, I'm almost certainly attaching at least one file. I always feel like I can get where I need to go quickly, and I'm never confused about how to get there.įor a more detailed look at the navigation concept, Mindsense has a blog post explining the thinking behind it. I don't know exactly how they could do it, but a horizontal implementation of this same concept would be a welcome change.ĭespite my minor frustration, I still enjoy Mail Pilot’s navigation. This makes Mail Pilot a two-handed app if you have one of the latest iPhones. While this may not have been a problem on the iPhone 5S and earlier, it's a challenge on the iPhone 6. Let's take an example, if I'm in my inbox and want to go back to my list of folders, I have to swipe down from the very top of the screen. I like this concept quite a bit, but the implementation is a little off for me. The basic concept is that every screen is always there, and you can swipe one screen out of the way to get at the screen below. In addition to a nice email triage experience, Mail Pilot also brags about their use of the z-axis for navigating around the app. Once I was able to convert to this style of thinking, I came to peace with this system (although I have to admit that I would welcome time-specific reminders in a future update). The goal is to get your inbox clear by the time you go to sleep. Your Today View in OmniFocus shows you everything for the day, even things that aren't supposed to happen until later. And if you think about your inbox as a list of things you need to get done today, then it doesn't matter what time messages appear. You don't mark emails "read", you mark them "completed". Mail Pilot treats your email more like tasks than messages. Additionally, if I want to set a reminder for more than 4 days, I have to move over to their Mac app. This is some thing that other apps like Outlook and Mailbox give you more freedom to do, and I do miss it in a mail Pilot. For example, I can't get an email in the morning and set it to remind me about that email that evening. You can't set one for even longer in the future, or for a specific time. One of the limitations of Mail Pilot’s interface in this regard is that you can only set a reminder for 1-5 days from now (or 1-7 on iPad). Swipe left to mark as completed (or "read" in typical email jargon) and swipe right to set a reminder for that message on a later date. Mail Pilot still has its original email swiping interface. Let's get the basics out of the way first. So how does Mail Pilot stand out from the crowd when everyone has adopted their interaction model? Let's take a look. Frankly, if an email app is released today and it doesn’t have this interaction, you have to wonder what they're doing. Mailbox gets the credit for really popularizing the idea, and you can even see it in Microsoft's and Apple's apps today. Back in January 2012, the concept of triage get your emails by swiping them was a new concept (and OMG look at that interface!). Mail Pilot 2 is a major update to Mindsense's innovative email app for iOS. I guess this is email season, because this is the second email app review I'm writing this week. Februapp feature ios review App Review: Mail Pilot 2 for iOS The album will include songs recorded from Cyrus’ live performances including songs from her 2022 performance at the Bud Light Super Bowl Music. As anxieties dissipate and demons disappear, what emerges is a powerful and enduring statement about humanity, overcoming struggles, the importance of mental health, not being afraid to fail and the resolve of the human spirit.

In addition to the fill, Collins used a drum machine pattern from a Roland CR-78 drum machine. From there, we were able to route that to the tape recorder.” I got one of the maintenance guys to take the desk apart and get a split output of this compressor and feed it into a patch point on the jack field so I could then patch it into a channel on the board. I said, ‘My God, this is the most amazing sound! Steve, listen to this.’ But the way the reverse talkback was set up, you couldn’t record it. “The most unbelievable sound came out because of the heavy compressor. “One day, Phil was playing the drums and I had the reverse talkback on because he was speaking, and then he started playing the drums,” producer Padgham explained. Logistically, though, the drum fill was created using the recording tool talkback. “Barking seals, that’s what it sounds like,” he said in a recent interview. It’s a descending 10-note tom-tom break that changed Collins’ career. Just past the 3:40 minute mark, the anticipation of the track drops as the iconic drum fill changes the pace of the song. “In The Air Tonight” is the reason why we love playing the air drums. I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lordĪnd I’ve been waiting for this moment, for all my life, oh lordĬan you feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord, oh lord The drums and the drum solo/fill. In an interview with Mix, Collins explained that he simply “opened mouth and came out.” He then recounted how he didn’t even write the lyrics down at first, but rather penned the lyrics on a piece of scrap paper after hearing his vocals back. The lyrics almost seem as if they were divined-they just spilled out of the singer. The lyrics.ĭistraught and heartbroken, Collins sang his emotions into existence. I’m not quite sure what the song is about, but there’s a lot of anger, a lot of despair, and a lot of frustration,” he said. I just wrote a sequence, and it sounded nice. “One day I was working on a piece in D-minor, the saddest of all. When I got back, she said she was leaving and taking the kids.”Īfter this jarring separation, Collins turned to songwriting. Just hold your breath when I’m over there.’ Then Genesis toured Japan. She said to me, ‘We won’t be together if you do the next tour.’ I said, ‘I’m a musician. “Genesis had done a tour that was far too long. “I wrote it after my wife left me,” Collins told Rolling Stone in 2016. Collins wrote this song after he and his first wife Andrea Bertorelli divorced, and the singer was haunted by the emotions that came rolling in afterward. “In The Air Tonight” sounds haunting because, well, it is slightly haunted. Billboard Hot 100.īut what is it about this song that makes it so striking? The origins. The song eventually charted at the number two position on the U.K. “In The Air Tonight” was also the lead single off of Collins’ debut album, Face Value.

Here Im selling my jline sdmsl2 15x8 with 0 offset 15x10 with -15 offset 165/45/r15 195/45/r15 Looking to sell asap No trades Pm me if interested. they said the design of the rim made if really difficult and i watched them do it really carefully while each one busted.ģ) 2 out of 4 of the rims would not balance because they were bent STRAIGHT from the factory.Ĥ) the staggered rims in the back didn't even fit with a 40et?!?!!?ĥ) sent back the rims and waited another few weeks to get themĦ) this time, only 1 of the 4 rims could not balance.ħ) noticeable steering wheel vibrations over 70 MPHĨ) they're made by IForged. So here they are Got them from a buddy for 2,000. The wheels fit perfectly with their front size and offset of 18×9.5 -10 and 18×9.5 -35 in the rear. why else do you ALWAYS see people on M3Forum and e46fanatics selling their 3 month old IForged rims? well, now you know.ĩ) when you wash the rims, they hold water in the inside well. Yes they are 4x100 but i have the wheel adapters to make them fit. That sort of fitment is, in my opinion, a good balance between looks and performance. J Line wheels (SDMSL2) Front: 20 x 8.5 / Rear: 20 x 10 with reverse lip. Mark also sourced out a Peak Performance 5 Lug conversion kit. JTB Brake System - front: 380mm rotor with 6 piston caliper / rear: 355mm rotor with 4. sounds funny? the damn thing literally holds a puddle of water in the inside rim well that you have to drain out with a rag!ġ0) okay, i'm done for now. Hey everyone, Im considering purchasing a set of 17x8 J Line SDMsl2 wheels for my IS300. AGAIN.Just want to introduce to you one of more popular brands for the Z and G community, Jline Wheels. i first saw their wheels almost a year ago on a forest green s13 hatch (the wheels were the 'sdmsl2' in gold) with ridiculous fitment and stagger. Im looking at a step up lip, black chrome finish wheel. the owner of this car is probably a zilvian, and i'm surprised his car isn't on the j-line site. for what you are getting, the prices don't seem all that crazy to me tho. The 2 piece wheels are available in limited sizes, but pricing is tough to beat for the quality you get, and offsets are pretty much sky is the limit for the regular flat lip. Just so you have an idea, for 19" in 2 piece 19x8 and 19x10 are what is available and 20" has 20x8.5 and 20x10. 2) upon arrival, tire shop busted 4 brand new tires trying to mount 225/40 on an 8' rim and a 255/40 on a 9' rim. Remember though, we can do any offset for the most part so we can compensate for the build, and you get the look you want, just not spending the money for a 3 piece. they said the design of the rim made if really difficult and i watched them do it really carefully while each one busted. JLine SDMSL2 Brushed Aluminum Finish Polished Lip 20x8 +35 - wrapped in Toyo T1R 245/35/20 20x9.5 +45 - no rear tires included. Wheels And Tires: J-Line SDMSL2 16x8 +20 205/40-16 Nitto Neo Gens. The 3 piece are available in any size, and we can do the SDM so you guys know in the 3 piece also, actually for that matter we can do any of the 2 piece in 3 piece if you like. Thanks bro, Jline is the company that took over DTM kruez and theyre far from the cheap end of the wheel market. Exterior: Blaze Orange Metallic paint Shaved engine bay Type One front splitters SRR bumper quick release. Wheels & Tires - Jline wheels - are these wheels any good its a 2piece and i think i am gettin a good price on them. They're are 28.5f and 19r and are a staggered fitment.

PM or email us at for pricing and remember all 370 members get a 3% discount so be sure to mention it. Vossen Wheels Lexus IS250 matched with Cordon Wheels FS: 20 JLine SDMsl2 wheels. His first trip alone involved 28,000 troops. The mariner Zheng He led these expeditions. From 1405 to 1433, they sponsored seven massive naval expeditions in order to reinforce Chinese presence in the Indian Ocean, impose imperial control over trade, and impress foreign peoples with the authority of the Ming Dynasty. Chinese Empire: ExplorationĪfter reestablishing authority over China, the Ming decided to refurbish their country’s large navy. While the Jesuit goal of converting the Chinese population to Catholicism proved unsuccessful, Ricci’s syncretic approach, accepting ancestor veneration while also using Confucian values to “translate” Christian doctrine, demonstrates how religious belief systems adapt to spread between regions. Jesuit missionaries such as Matteo Ricci arrived in China, introducing European science and technology. Its opening lines summarize a repeating pattern in Chinese political history: “The world under heaven, after a long period of division, tends to unite after a long period of union, tends to divide. The story opens with the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the twilight of the Han Dynasty, and it follows a sprawling cast during the Three King- doms period as they battle over whose faction will reunite China. Perhaps the most widely read novel in both late imperial and modern China, and culturally influential throughout East Asia, Romance of the Three Kingdoms is an 800,000-word epic. The Ming Dynasty saw three of the “Four Great Classical Novels” of Chinese literature published: The Water Margin, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Journey to the West. The Ming Dynasty strongly promoted Chinese cultural traditions and established Neo-Confucian schools which stressed Confucian values such as self-discipline, filial piety, and obedience to rulers. In the seventeenth century, the Ming finally faced troop defections and rebellions over the state’s inability to pay its own soldiers. This approach facilitated trade but left the Ming state vulnerable to economic disruptions. Where the Yuan Dynasty had imposed high taxes to support Mongol military efforts, the Ming favored a policy of minimal taxation. Though the Ming did not actively promote trade, private merchants traded manufactured porcelain, silk, and cotton. They also conscripted laborers to rebuild irrigation systems as a result, agricultural production increased. The Ming relied on mandarins, a class of powerful officials, to implement their policies on the local level. Hongwu reinstated the Confucian education system and civil service exam and tightened central authority. In 1368, the Mongol Yuan Dynasty collapsed and Emperor Hongwu started the Ming Dynasty.
