"These terms include the promise not to reproduce the contents of Genius's platform. "Like countless Internet businesses, Genius-an online platform for transcribing and annotating song lyrics-insists that visitors agree to its contractual terms as a condition for availing themselves of the benefit of its services," the company told the Supreme Court. In its August 2022 petition to the Supreme Court, Genius argued that the Copyright Act shouldn't override its claim that Google breached a contract. Genius alleged that LyricFind copied Genius transcriptions and licensed them to Google.īrodie found that Genius' claim must fail even if one accepts the argument that it "added a separate and distinct value to the lyrics by transcribing them such that the lyrics are essentially derivative works." Since Genius "does not allege that it received an assignment of the copyright owners' rights in the lyrics displayed on its website, Plaintiff's claim is preempted by the Copyright Act because, at its core, it is a claim that Defendants created an unauthorized reproduction of Plaintiff's derivative work, which is itself conduct that violates an exclusive right of the copyright owner under federal copyright law," Brodie wrote.

![]() If you're off of battery power or USB power instead, you'll need to build a current-sense circuit. Obviously, it depends on your power supply, but even a $50 one these days has this feature. having a faster-to-initialize and lower power usage to boot (10mA for those 30ms, rather than for 100mA for 2000mS), you'll grossly cut down your power consumptions.Ī current-controlled power supply will often tell you the current-usage. If you need low-power but still wireless and more updates than that. There are practical limits (is one connection per day sufficient?), but 15 minutes still has some leeway depending on the application. etc.) until your current consumption is as low as you want. ![]() Have you tried going even slower? You can cut your current usage in half by going every 30-minutes, and then in a quarter by connecting every 60-minutes (etc. At this point, the active power usage during the 5-6 seconds of WiFi is already 2X the power consumption of the 15 minutes of Deep Sleep, so I have not attempted to reduce the idle consumption any further. But waking it up every 15 minutes, for 5-6 seconds of WiFi time, reduces the battery life to about 4-5 months. In theory, that's enough for 1 year of life on a single charge of a 2000 mAh battery. On my D1 Mini boards, I get about 0.22 mA in Forced Deep Sleep mode. But these dev boards often contain a voltage regulator which consumes a quiescent current. D1 Mini, NodeMCU) do support waking up from Deep Sleep. Hell, you might do better with LoRa (long-range, ~3-miles) signals than WiFi. I mean, WiFi just wasn't designed for low-power like these other protocols. The current-usage on WiFi power is just nuts.Īnyone trying to do wireless with low power should be using other protocols. ![]() Unfortunately, the ESP-01 module does not support this (without hardware hacking), because it does not expose the GPIO16/D0 pin necessary to trigger the RESET. It can then connect to WiFi, transmit the data payload, then go back to Deep Sleep again. If the WiFi is needed only intermittently, the ESP8266 can be placed into "Forced Deep Sleep" mode, with the internal RTC configured to wake it up after a certain time, e.g. But that still means about 5.5 years on a single charge. The lowest current that I have measured personally is 0.04 mA on various ESP-01 modules. 3xAA NiMh, or 1x18650 Li-Ion), that means over 11 years on battery, if no other work is performed. If WiFi is not needed, the ESP8266 can be placed into "Forced Deep Sleep" mode, with an idle current of 0.02 mA. In normal usage, WiFi apparently has a continuous drain of ~70 mA. During initialization, I believe it can consume 500 mA or more. It should draw about 15-16 mA, which is pretty close to the 18-24 mA measured in the TFA. ![]() The `delay(1)` triggers the "Automatic Modem Sleep" mode, which keeps the WiFi connection alive. The ESP8266 has 5 sleep modes, as summarized by this README.md in the Arduino ESP8266 Core. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the past decade, Bayern has tended to appoint big names like Carlo. Marcus Sorg and Andy Köpke are expected to remain as part of Flick’s staff from the current regime, but Danny Röhl is expected to join the group and be announced shortly. According to a report from Sport Buzzer, Hansi Flick is putting together a really nice staff for Germany. That’s clear when you see his goals, and that’s also the feedback I got from (Werder Bremen coach) Ole Werner,” Flick said. Hansi Flick’s Champions League triumph continued a rather odd trend at Bayern Munich the success of the un-chosen one. An all-star staff could be forming for an all-star manager. “Niclas has the momentum on his side as well, as well as the way he offers his services to the team. According to a report from kicker (as captured by iMiaSanMia), Flick and Oliver Bierhoff are both facing major scrutiny, but right now there is a stronger focus on Bierhoff’s role in the disaster at the World Cup in Qatar. Werder Bremen’s Niclas Füllkrug and Borussia Dortmund’s Youssoufa Moukoko also got the call, but it remains to be seen how much they will actually play. Götze undoubtedly was a benefactor from the recent injuries to Timo Werner and Lukas Nmecha as it likely helped open Flick’s mind to including another versatile attacking midfielder for an offense that likely won’t often operate with a traditional striker. As Germany prepare to face Hungary in Leipzig on Friday, one eye will be on the fast-approaching World Cup in Qatar, but the other will be on three potentially important points in Nations League group A3 as Hansi Flick seeks to the make the final four tournament.

As a result, Flick was given the freedom of Bammental in November 2015, the small town just outside Heidelberg where he lives with his wife, Silke.

Instead, these elements are treated as hugely important in their own right, until they pass and some new tangent replaces them. Or, perhaps, they could be mentioned in passing or used as a backdrop to the romances between Cleopatra and her two Roman toyboys. We get tangents on the burning of Alexandria, or the politics of Rome, or the Roman civil war, all set up and played out – but there’s no joy or fascination in any of these hugely influential moments.Īny of these settings could carry their own historical adaptation. ![]() Despite the fact that Elizabeth Taylor gets top billing and her character’s name brands the film, the movie doesn’t seem consistently concerned with the two most important romances in her life. I do believe that, somewhere, there is a four-hour film that can hold an audience’s attention, but this movie really tries to cram too many ideas into its runtime. The movie is simply too inconsistent to maintain interest over such a long time. Caesar’s half would have been “too talky”, with Anthony’s film would have been “too loud.” So, putting the pair together, do we get a good film? Separate, the two halves would each have seemed awkward. The first half is primarily governed by politics and discussion, with impressive action sequences taking up large chunks of the second half. In fairness, I don’t think splitting the movie in two would have helped – it is structured as one giant film, despite the revolving cast and shifts in mood. Studio executives, keen to capitalise on the gossip around the Burton-Taylor romance, would not delay the release of the second half (the one which paired the couple up on screen). It had been suggested at one stage that the film be cut in half and released as two distinct movies, following Cleopatra’s relationships with Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony. Even at four hours, the movie seems to be missing certain key moments and developments, which are frequently tripped over by a large and expansive (and revolving) cast. When you consider that the first cut presented to studio executives was six hours long, it gives you an indication of how incomplete a four-hour film could possibly be. ![]() ![]() James Major, and highly recommend him as a retinal specialist.” P.L.

Juan F Lebrons specialties include Retina and Vitreous Diseases. But, as of the initial pre-surgical exam date, the records has not made it to the doctor or the surgical facility. In the second case (recalling the prior problem with records), I provided 3 months notice to RCH and their records housing facility known as MRO. However, I am tenacious and managed to create a sense of urgency, so that the required information was finally delivered a day or so in advance of the surgery. But, the employee in medical records created a situation which caused the surgical facility to actually call me and suggest that the surgery may not be able to occur as planned, due to this issue.

In hindsight, Apple's messaging that year was likely poorly devised based on backward-looking trends more than anything else. To be clear, the Q1 results that year were pressured by conditions in China and emerging markets, but it was clearly just noise in the bigger picture.

As far as dynamics go, this plugin is able to capture dynamics surprisingly nicely. The straight-up presets are not my favorites, however, you can easily tweak them to your liking. I do believe that this will become a popular free option though. What I also like about this plugin is that not a lot of people have heard of this one, yet. This is handy for those who are hands-on and really like to tweak things. What I really like about this plugin is that you’re able to able to tweak presets and instantly save them as your own.
