![]() Keep in mind that this estimator assumes all income is from wages, assumes the standard deduction, and does not account for tax credits.įor a more detailed estimate that takes these factors into account, click "View Detailed Estimate" (this will will redirect to an external website). You can use the income tax estimator to the left to calculate your approximate Federal and Federal income tax based on the most recent tax brackets. The new tax bracket was introduced by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which among other things also prevented the expiration of the lowest 10% tax bracket, as well as the 25% - 33% brackets, which were set to expire that year. For tax years 2012 and earlier, the highest tax bracket was 35%. In tax year 2013, a new 39.6% tax bracket was added, currently applicable to income over $609,350.00 for single taxpayers. New tax breaks for business owners, such as the Qualified Business Income Deduction were also introduced. While this overhaul lowered rates, it also eliminated many popular tax breaks such as the Personal Exemption. ![]() In December 2017, congress passed a sweeping federal income tax overhaul that affects personal income tax rates from tax year 2018 onward. If you qualify for any tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit or a Homebuyer's Tax Credit, you will deduct these credits from your total tax owed after calculating your marginal tax rates. ![]() When calculating your income tax, it's important to remember that the federal tax brackets apply to your gross adjusted income, after accounting for any tax deductions such as dependant exemptions, business expenses, and any other before-tax deductions. Some individuals may have to follow a special tax structure not listed here, such as the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) for certain high-income taxpayers. Only used in rare situations, as you will usually wind up paying more income tax than if you filed jointly. Married Filing Separately - MFS is a special filing type for individuals who are married, but choose to file separate income tax returns.Head of Household tax brackets are wider than Single brackets, but not as wide as joint brackets. Head of Household - Head of Household is a special filing status reserved for single individuals who support one or more dependants by themselves.As a result, MFJ brackets are the most tax-advantagous. ![]() The width of the first three tax brackets are doubled, and the highest four brackets are expanded (but not doubled) for joint filers. Married Filing Jointly - The Married Filing Jointly tax brackets are applicable to all legally married couples filing their income tax on a joint return.Single - The Single brackets, applicable to all single non-joint filers, have the narrowest bracket width and generally result in the highest individual income tax.These bracket types allow taxpayers filing as Married Filing Jointly or Head of Household to pay less in taxes by widening (doubling, in the case of MFJ) each tax bracket's width. There are four complete sets of tax brackets for different filing types, each with different bracket widths. This will result in lower Federal income taxes for those whose salaries haven't kept pace with inflation. With typical inflation adjustments a mere 1-2%, the 2023 Federal income tax brackets have been adjusted for inflation by as much as 10.5%. With inflation at historical highs, the IRS has adjusted Federal tax brackets significantly to account for inflation. This page explains how these tax brackets work, and includes a Federal income tax calculator for estimating your tax liability.įederal Income Tax Brackets Indexed for Inflation The Federal Income Tax consists of seven marginal tax brackets, ranging from a low of 10% to a high of 39.6%. Federal income tax brackets were last changed one year ago for tax year 2023, and the tax rates were previously changed in 2017.įederal tax brackets are indexed for inflation, and are updated yearly to reflect changes in cost of living.

![]() “Instead of trying to build a ginormous spaceship that’s bigger than everyone else’s, I wanted to try and do something that’s different,” he says, “Just throw the whole huge production UFO thing out the window. When he’s not outright performing, he does other things, like carving the name of the city into the stage with an angle grinder, sparks flying in all directions, or just laying down, looking at the audience while chit-chatting through a robot-voice computer program. When he does create music, the production is captured on live-feed video screens. The show, which has been recreated at Lollapalooza and will be performed at upcoming festival slots, fancies itself a bit of a drama. It didn’t feel authentic … So I was like, ‘How about instead of that, I’m going to put on a theater performance.’” They didn’t know what I was doing, half the time I didn’t know what I was doing. I didn’t feel like the audience was as engaged as they could be. “I was getting bored of the show, standing there twiddling knobs, putting my hands up,” he says. The show caught headlines for bizarre on-stage antics, like when Streten spent a few minutes potting some house plants, only to smash the pots a moment later. “Rushing Back” was released in September, just in time for a surreal live performance at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado. The Nissan reappears in Flume’s “Rushing Back” music video, a stand-alone song not included on the mixtape featuring Vera Blue. When Jonathan told him what we were going to do with it, he almost didn’t sell it to him.” It was this beautiful, red car, the classic look. He’d looked after it so well, and all the interiors were custom. “It was just working, like a 50/50 kind of thing whether it was going to start. ![]() “We were just nerding out about cars, and we wanted to get that one,” he says.

He’d teamed with Skin cover artist Jonathan Zawada on a seven-day shoot that saw the pair explore the beautiful wilderness of Austalia’s southwest coast. There was nothing casual about the accompanying visualizer, though. In the spirit of keeping things casual, Streten dropped Hi This is Flume with no build-up other than a teaser tweet in March of 2019. A remix of Sophie’s “Is It Cold In The Water,” from her Grammy-nominated debut album, is the only non-original piece.įlume Releases 'When Everything Was New' Documentary on YouTube: Watch Streten weaved together bits and pieces of rhythms and noise, striving not for perfection but rather to embrace “some grit and dirt.” Usually the type to insist on doing everything himself, he worked on a few cuts alongside respected peers Eprom and Sophie, both of whom champion a glitched-out, experimental sound whose influence is felt throughout the mixtape. He says his first two albums were slaves to a “grand vision.” Hi This if Flume became an exercise in letting go. Despite 16 of its 17 songs being entirely original material, he called Hi This is Flume a “mixtape” to destress the creative process. So, he gave up on the idea of an album altogether and tricked himself into making it fun. “I had this anxious energy about ‘Is it as good as it can be?’” “I actually wasn’t enjoying doing the music because I was laboring over it so much,” he says. The idea of embarking on another album campaign left him “a bit freaked out” and “scarred.” Streten supported Skin with two world tours and granted “a billion interviews every day,” the burden of which can be felt in the Hi This is Flume intro, a 30-second collection of radio drops layered into cacophony. Diplo even publicly accused Zedd of ripping it off with his remix of “The Candyman” for an M&Ms ad campaign. Flume’s signature off-center synths began a movement of copy-cats. Skin topped the Dance/Electronic Album Sales chart, while singles “Never Be Like You” featuring Kai and “Say It” featuring Tove Lo landed the producer his first Hot 100 hits.

So how can you put theory into practice? The key here is to think of the emotion wheel as a compass to the inner world. Different Ways to Use Plutchik’s Emotion Wheel The closer to the center of the wheel the stronger the emotion is felt and the further away from the center of the wheel the emotion isn’t felt as strongly. And they are also experienced in differing degrees of intensity. You can see the opposites and derivatives of these emotions in this Emotion Wheel below:Īs you can see, the combination of basic emotions leads to varying emotions. Plutchik’s eight postulated basic emotions - anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise, anticipation, trust, and joy - have polar, corresponding opposites: There exists a small number of basic, primary, or prototype emotions.Īll other emotions are derivatives that occur as combinations or mixtures of these basic, primary, or prototype emotions.Įmotions are constructs or ideas that are used to label or describe experiences.īasic emotions can be conceptualized as pairs that are polar opposites of one another.Īll experienced emotions vary in their degree of difference and similarity to each other.Įvery emotion can exist in differing degrees of intensity or vary in their level of arousal. ![]() His psychoevolutionary theory of basic emotions contains 10 postulations: ²īoth animals and humans experience the same emotions in comparable ways.Įmotions have an evolutionary history, they have evolved different forms of expression in various species.Įmotions, therefore, serve as an adaptive role in aiding organisms to handle survival situations posed by environmental pressures.ĭespite the different ways to express emotions in different species, there are commonalities or prototype emotions that can be identified. Plutchik argued that these eight primary emotions all have survival qualities and have evolved to negotiate environmental pressures placed upon an organism. Plutchik believed there were eight primary emotions: anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise, anticipation, trust, and joy. In his work, Plutchik proposed a psychoevolutionary classification system for emotional response. His research included studies on suicide, violence, psychotherapy, and, most famously - emotions. He was a prolific researcher, publishing more than 260 articles, 45 chapters, and eight books. Plutchik was a professor emeritus at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and a professor at the University of South Florida. The original wheel of emotions was created by the psychologist Dr. Today, the emotion wheel is widely used in psychology, counseling, and emotional literacy education to help individuals identify, understand, and articulate their emotional states more precisely. Researchers used this theory to standardize the classification of responses in test environments and identify the expression of emotion common to humans experience across languages, cultures, and continents. The theory that accompanies the wheel of emotions posits that primary emotions of anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise, anticipation, trust, and joy, served an important adaptive role in evolution: Each emotion trigger behaviors that are key to survival. These researchers basically asked, why do we experience emotions? They hypothesized that emotions serve some kind of evolutionary advantage - and evidence suggests that they were right. The wheel was initially created by researchers within the field of evolutionary psychology to support a theory defining the role of emotions in human development over many centuries. ![]() Plutchik’s wheel of emotions, known more broadly as the emotion wheel, is a visual guide to the complete spectrum of human emotion. Here’s how to increase your emotional intelligence and be better at life. Therefore, it’s a great idea to place EQ at the top of your self-improvement list. ¹Ī high emotional quotient (EQ) assists decision making, helps stress management, and leads to an increase in overall happiness. So, how can we better understand emotions - and why should we?įor starters, research has shown a higher level of emotional intelligence is linked to higher salaries and increased job satisfaction. An experience that changes the way we interact with the world and the people around us. Whichever way we feel or express our emotions, how we feel is a unique experience to each and every one of us. Others of us are very stoic in our approach, maintaining the appearance that nothing really brings us joy or stresses us out. Some of us find we are more attached to our emotions than others, wearing our hearts on our sleeves. Emotions are complex, and sometimes out of control. The film certainly stands as pure entertainment. ![]() ![]() The movie had to deliver, and that’s what it did.Ĭonsidering the vast economic forces at work, it’s amazing that Toy Story 3 works as well as it does. ![]() Really, though, Toy Story 3 cost Disney something more like $7.6 billion to make, due to the purchase of Pixar. The film ended up with a budget of $200 million, an astronomical pricetag for an animated movie. All the living members of the Toy Story cast returned. Screenwriter Michael Arndt was a relative newcomer to Pixar, but he’d just won an Oscar for writing Little Miss Sunshine, his first script. Lee Unkrich, a longtime Pixar insider who’d been co-director of Toy Story 2, signed on to direct. Toy Story 3 was Pixar’s first feature as a fully entrenched part of the Disney empire. (When Disney bought Marvel and Lucasfilm, the other two splashy acquisitions of the early Iger era, those two moves cost about $4 billion each, which means Disney paid nearly as much for Pixar as it did for Marvel and Star Wars combined.)Īll those moving parts meant that America went more than a decade between Toy Story sequels. Ultimately, Disney paid $7.6 billion to buy Pixar outright. Iger, now the most powerful man in Hollywood, immediately ditched all those Circle 7 plans and instead went to work mending the bridges between Disney and Pixar. Partly because of fan and investor backlash over those Circle 7 plans, Disney pushed Eisner out and replaced him with Bob Iger. (That script reportedly involved Buzz Lightyear getting recalled and shipped to a factory in Taiwan and the other toys going to rescue him. Circle 7 had a whole staff of animators and writers, and it had a Toy Story 3 script ready to go. Eisner responded by founding a whole new Disney animation studio, called Circle 7, which would be devoted entirely to making sequels to those original Pixar movies. Eisner and Jobs came to hate one another, and when Pixar finished up its original contract with Disney, the animation studio announced plans to go fully independent. 3 at the 1999 box office, behind only The Phantom Menace and The Sixth Sense.ĭisney boss Michael Eisner rewarded Pixar by letting the company know that the terms of their deal didn’t include sequels, that they still owed Disney more movies. Toy Story 2 turned out, if anything, even better than its predecessor, and it was also a massive hit-No. Toy Story 2 was originally planned as a low-budget straight-to-video release, but when Disney deemed the sequel promising enough for a theatrical run, the Pixar braintrust went into brand-protection overdrive, with writers and animators working around the clock to turn it into something special. Under the original terms of the distribution deal between the companies, Pixar would make the movies, and Disney would own the characters and sequel rights for those first five films. Disney had responded to that success by milking Pixar for whatever the company was worth. Pixar, an animation studio that had already been through a long and chaotic gestation period, had used Disney’s money to test the idea that computer animation could tell a complete story, and the experiment had succeeded wildly. ![]() Fifteen years earlier, the original Toy Story had been a delightful cinematic Hail Mary. It took a whole lot of corporate machinations before Toy Story 3 could fuck around with people’s feelings on that level. We’d all be lucky to go out like that, and the beauty of the moment allows you to forget, for just a second, that you are watching a lucrative global children’s-entertainment franchise and not a bleak European art film. They wordlessly accept what’s about to happen, holding plastic hands and giving one another whatever comfort they can offer. In the film’s climactic scene, the one where the toys are all sliding downward toward doom, these inexplicable sentient beings all exhibit absolute dignity and absolute love. Toy Story 3 won’t let you ponder those questions because it’s too busy power-bombing your inner child through a flaming table. Are those atoms then sentenced to a hell of eternal frustration? For instance: Can a toy die? What does it mean to die if you don’t have any biological functions in the first place? When your detached body parts can operate independently of one another, is death itself merely a construct? Will all your immolated atoms go on to lives of their own? And will those atoms live out their lives hoping that children will play with them? Children can’t play with atoms. If you start thinking too hard, you might start asking difficult questions. Toy Story 3, like so many Pixar films, preys on your emotions. Shields are very effective against him, especially with a thrall or pet attacking him in the meantime.

Interactive map of Exiled Lands for Conan Exiles with locations, and descriptions for items, characters, easter eggs and other game content, including Locations, Capital City, Cave, Dungeon. Hatchet - trees for wood, bodies for meat and few hides (if you don't have a cleaver or skinning knife).Pick - generally boulders and ore, also trees for bark, resin (northern trees) and bodies for bones.If the server was configured with Harvest Amount Multiplier set at x3, then each strike would gather 30 or 33 stone. When used to strike a large boulder, it will harvest 10 or 11 stone on each strike (10 stone with a 50% chance of an additional stone). If you want different maps, go play Ark i guess.

Some resources, such as Wood and Stone are easy to find - just hit a tree or large boulder respectively with a harvesting tool.
The thumbsticks are the tight resistance types, I like that as it improves aiming. The buttons and triggers were all complete usable and I especially liked the simple triggers. Xbox 360 wireless: It feels nice and solid in my hands. Bulletstorm requires aiming as well as quick and creative usage of face buttons and bumpers but if only requires basic use of the D'pad. So, I tested the Xbox 360, Xbox one, Logitech F710, and Dualshock 4 controllers all with the same intense area in Bulletstorm. Then move to something faster paced to see if you can use it as well as you would another controller. If it is a controller with an odd setup, such as the steam controller, pick a slower paced game and make adjustments to your settings and just try to get used to it. Then finally I will use my keyboard and mouse for games that a controller just doesn't work well with. I use an xbox one controller for most games and then i am learning how to use my new steam controller. It got to be a pain after a while even though I liked the PS4 controller. ![]() The PS4 controller has to have third party software to be used on most games and then it will de sync when you let it idle too long, so you have to delete the controller from your bluetooth devices and then re sync it. But I would also have an int to keep track of an average time between the object spawning and then the player moving to and attacking it.Īll in all, for name brand controllers, its really just what you feel most comfortable with or if the controller gives you problems a lot because of software incompatability. ![]() Each controller would need to go through this at least 3 times. One which is like arcade games as you said is to just collect a score and overall time to completion. You will definitely feel the difference here.įrom a programming standpoint there would be a few processes that could be used. You should try comparing an offbrand 360 controller to a genuine one. Anything that will force you to have to turn and aim quickly so you can feel how the joysticks are. I think both bulletstorm and borderlands would be fine. I hope to eventually pick up a USB NES controller myself. I haven't been able to purchase it yet, but it seems like it would play like an older game. maybe I'm onto something there.Ĭuphead may work. The closest thing might be old score focused arcade games. It would have several scores senarios that you would run through and it would grade your performance and reation times. I actually wish there was a little controller benchmark program. Perhaps Bulletstorm, Borderlands, or something similar. I am just trying to think of one thats easy to dive into a fairly predictable area repeatedly. Then I remembered that Cuphead was recently gifted to me.Īnd yes, an FPS seems like a fine choice to test the triggers. Well, my first thoughts for testing the 2D retro games leaned toward emulation. ![]() The steam controller is a beast in its own class, so theres so many ways to use it even for just one game.ĭo you have any games in mind? That will make it so I am able to give my opinion on what you should try for each. I think a lot of indie games would work well with your SNES controller. ![]() To test the accuracy of your joysticks including the steam controller, try a first person shooter. An SNES controller would not be good for a modern day racing game, but the other controllers would be great so you can feel your Triggers in action. Originally posted by Ownedb圜ow:That really depends. (I like that, maybe I'll coin the phrase.) Frustration is just a word for those who don't have patience. I sight read through the piece, I think that piece should be attainable for intermediates and some advanced beginners IMO but yeah they would have to put the work in. So only attempt if you are a beginner or intermediate with fairly long fingers. He uses frequent harmonic shifts and 10ths in his playing so if you can’t reach a 10th you have to come up with a work around.That is true, there is a 10th in there and I don't have a problem playing those but some even advanced players have trouble playing 10ths. I think it would be beyond frustrating for beginners to try to play these pieces. I have the sheet music for Over the Rainbow and it’s more demanding than Shenandoah. I’ve played his transcription of Shenandoah. ![]() Jarret’s transcriptions are around an RCM 9 level. To truly master, well that is a whole other story, but who ever really masters a piece? Martha Argerich used to say how she never felt like she mastered a piece that there's always another level on which to improve upon. For intermediate pianists this piece should not be difficult to play. That drove my practice, not testing, a critical teacher, or other external factors. I can't remember a time in the past 40 years where I saw playing the piano a chore and I think that has a lot to do with the fact that I learned almost exclusively by just playing music that inspired me or challenged me. I personally think far too many adults who unlike children genuinely want to learn the instrument drop out because they are not seeing results or playing music that inspires them. From a pedagogical perspective I could see why many teachers would say this piece is unnecessarily challenging but if an advanced beginner were to learn a piece like this it can be the reward that keeps them in this art for a lifetime. The piece is slow enough and not so note heavy that they can learn the piece if they put their mind into it. Somewhat more advanced beginners I think they could do it. They just have to figure their way around the keyboard. Over the Rainbow is about four pages long, so if it takes someone months or a year to learn it, this would generally be inappropriate from a pedagogical perspective.Complete beginners I wouldn't have them even try such pieces. He uses frequent harmonic shifts and 10ths in his playing so if you can’t reach a 10th you have to come up with a work around.Īlthough both those pieces are magical, I think they're way too difficult for beginners and even many intermediate players. A lot more fun than exercises and scales wouldn't you say?
