![]() ![]() Was Icelandic outlawry exceptional? The legal and historical aspect of Icelandic outlawry has been widely studied and commented by scholars (Spoelstra, 1938), either by following indications from the Grágás or through the use of literary examples spread in the sagas (Frederic Amory, 1992). This ambiguity may shed light to questions such as why an outlaw could be perceived as a hero in a literary genre that predominantly promoted law and order and why the same outlaw could be perceived as a villain on another occasion. The variety of denotations and connotations of outlawry that is visible in the medieval Icelandic texts reflects the ambiguity of outlawry in the Family Sagas. It is argued that these taleworlds reflect the same ideas that were associated with outlawry in the Family Sagas albeit in different forms and that these different forms reciprocally contributed to the conceptions of outlawry. This is done by studying the implementations of the basic elements of outlawry in the Family Sagas marginalization, banishing, rejection and solitariness within other literary genres and the taleworlds to which they refer. In this study, these connotations are inspected primarily from the referential connections between outlawry in the Family Sagas and corresponding phenomena in other concurrent literature. The social and spatial structures also provide a basis for the connotations of outlawry. The inspection of outlawry within these structures reveals that the definition of outlawry as it appears in the law texts is insufficient for understanding outlawry in the saga texts. These roles reflect the social and spatial structures of the Saga World. However, outlaws occupy many differing roles in the saga narratives even in connection with recurrent narrative motifs. In practice, outlawry was a death sentence. The medieval law texts, which were derived from centuries old legislative traditions, reveal that outlawry meant banishing from the society and being denied all help, and that the outlawed person lost the protection of the law. The Saga World is the historically based taleworld to which all of the Family Sagas refer. The medieval Icelanders general conceptions about the 10th 11th century, which are reflected in the Family Sagas, are here referred to as the Saga World. Therefore, the eventual objects of this study are the medieval Icelanders general conceptions of the historical outlawry as well as the variations of these conceptions throughout the period of saga writing. The Family Sagas are studied here as one corpus and special emphasis is given to those narrative features that repetitively appear in connection with outlawry and the outlaw characters. These narratives introduce many outlaws, out of which some 75 are named. They are based on events and personae that belong to the 10th century Iceland. The Icelandic Family Sagas comprise a group of prose narratives that were written down in the 13th and 14th century Iceland. ![]() Outlaws appear in saga texts in significant roles. ![]() Indeed, understanding outlawry is essential for understanding many of the Family Sagas. The concept of outlawry was fundamental for the medieval Icelanders conceptions of their past. It provides a thorough description about outlawry on the basis of extant law and saga texts as well as an analysis of referential connotations attached to it. The present study scrutinizes the outlawry and outlaws that appear in the Icelandic Family Sagas. ![]()

![]() ![]() You could have multiple versions from a single minute. This slider tool appears on every note and lets you toggle back in time to see previous versions of the note. It's a one-click option that's fast and simple. You can also share notes without giving someone editing access by making the note available on a public link. If you're used to the more advanced collaboration tools you get in, say, Google Docs, Simplenote's seem far behind the times. When a collaborator edits one of your notes, it jiggles in the sidebar view, giving you a clue that something is happening to it, but it's not all that clear. There's no information about who originally made the note and who else has been invited to edit it. Collaborative notes aren't marked in any way. When a collaborator logs into their account, however, there's no way for them to tell which notes are their own and which belong to someone else. They receive an email announcing that they've been added as a collaborator. ![]() You can invite people by email to have complete editing and viewing access to any note. Simplenote now offers fully collaborative editing, and while that's a big step forward from where the app was a few years ago, it needs some improvement. When you add tags to a note, Simplenote uses type-ahead suggestions so you can be consistent with them. Your tags show up in the order you made them, and you can rearrange them at will. All the tags you create appear in a far left menu bar that's collapsed until you open it. You make your own tags, the same way you do in Evernote. There are really only three more significant features in Simplenote: tags, collaboration, and version history. When you paste in formatted text, all the formatting is erased. If you paste in a hyperlink, however, it does stylize and link out. When you create a note in Simplenote, the top line becomes the title, and everything that follows is the note text. Those tools are keystone features in Evernote, OneNote, and Joplin. In addition to being text-only, Simplenote doesn't offer folders or subfolders, notebooks, sections, stacks, or other organizational tools. Simplenote has a little Markdown cheat sheet that you can pull up at any time if you need a reminder on how to add a particular style. Markdown doesn't give you much beyond bold, italic, headings, and a few kinds of stylized lists. You may have seen people text messaging app put asterisks around a word like * this* to make it bold: That's Markdown. Markdown is a simplified language for typing symbols around text to stylize it. You can use Markdown (Opens in a new window) if you like, but it's optional. If you're okay with having a text-only app, you might not mind that Simplenote keeps things simple all around. While many users have grown frustrated with Evernote over the years, and rightfully so, it has been an innovator in the note-taking apps category for years. Evernote is our third Editors' Choice pick. OneNote offers many more features and Joplin gives you more tools for organizing your notes. They are Microsoft OneNote and Joplin, which is also open source. Two of them are free, just like Simplenote. ![]() There are better choices, however PCMag has three Editors' Choice winners. ![]() For those firmly in the less-is-more camp, Simplenote is worth a look. This app is made for those who focus best when they aren't distracted by extra frills. You can use Markdown language (more on this below), but otherwise you don't get formatting or styling options for the text. Only text notes are supported, however, meaning there's no uploading images or recording voice memos. It's a straightforward synced note-taking app that's cross-platform and free, and it also includes collaboration options. Simplenote, owned by Automattic (which also runs and Tumblr), is a good option for anyone who doesn't need all that. The giants of the space, Evernote and OneNote, aim to do it all, offering rich features and support for multimedia. Not all note-taking apps are created equal. ![]() ![]() In addition to identifying exact duplicate files, it also lets you find very similar photos.

By Caroline Guntur, Swedish Organizer ![]() ![]() ![]() A prequel set over 40 years before the first Metal Gear Solid, Snake Eater brings Naked Snake aka Big Boss to the fore as our playable hero, arms him with camouflage capabilities and a new up-close-and-personal combat system, and sets us loose in an alternative-world Cold War. But for MGS3, the director and company went back to basics in a fashion, while also adding plenty of freshness to the mix to produce what might be the high watermark of the entire Metal Gear Solid series. And those decisions, yeah, they didn’t go down brilliantly with every admirer of Hideo Kojima’s stealth-action series, did they. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater / Credit: Konamiĭecisions were made with Metal Gear Solid 2 - most notably, the switch to a new protagonist in the form of Raiden, with the original Metal Gear Solid’s Solid Snake character resigned to something of an… introductory performance. ![]() Challenging, sophisticated and special, SOTC was remade for PlayStation 4 in 2018, so there’s no need to have an old PS2 still wired up to your tellybox to enjoy this one in 2022, even if the two games aren’t quite the same. It’s all about its mood, its powerful sense of place, the towering beasts that give the game its name and the puzzle-like methods needed to overcome them. The plot, while thin, delivers a mighty twist - but it’s not the story that people really remember Shadow of the Colossus for. A lonely, meditative adventure through an open world notable for its lack of distractions, its committed vision of emptiness (although, that is as determined by the hardware as the creative influence of director Fumito Ueda, who we profiled here), it follows a horse-mounted protagonist as he slays a series of gigantic creatures in the hopes of reviving a girl. Shadow of the Colossus is one of those experiences that, if you play it once and it connects with you, it’s practically assured a place in your personal greatest games of all time list. ![]() ![]() ![]() KePlast control solutions are equipped with OPC UA and thus form the basis for the realization of Industry 4.

We have no interest whatsoever in Wizards’ new OGL. While we are prepared to argue that point in a court of law if need be, we don’t want to have to do that, and we know that many of our fellow publishers are not in a position to do so. Paizo does not believe that the OGL 1.0a can be “deauthorized,” ever. Paizo has also worked very closely on OGL-related issues with Ryan Dancey, the visionary who conceived the OGL in the first place. Brian Lewis, co-founder of Azora Law, the intellectual property law firm that Paizo uses, was the attorney at Wizards who came up with the legal framework for the OGL itself. Paizo owner Lisa Stevens and Paizo president Jim Butler were leaders on the Dungeons & Dragons team at Wizards at the time. ![]() We believe that any interpretation that the OGL 1.0 or 1.0(a) were intended to be revocable or able to be deauthorized is incorrect, and with good reason. While we continue to await an answer from Wizards, we strongly feel that Paizo can no longer delay making our own feelings about the importance of Open Gaming a part of the public discussion. We have been awaiting further information, hoping that Wizards would realize that, for more than 20 years, the OGL has been a mutually beneficial license which should not–and cannot–be revoked.

Restarting the game is the only workaround.Paizo announced a new open, perpetual, and irrevocable Open RPG Creative License (ORC).

![]() ![]() Originally announced during E3 2020, the PS5 and Xbox Series X title was due to release sometime in 2022. Pragmata will present players with a profound story and setting, as cutting edge visuals take full advantage of next-generation platform features all made possible by the power of the PlayStation 5 console. Whenever it launches, Pragmata will be available for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Pragmata, the upcoming sci-fi game from Capcom, has been delayed until 2023. Hey Guys, In This video I am going to talk about Pragmata anf all the details related to the game like story, gameplay & expected release date. Lose yourself in a brand-new sci-fi action adventure game from Capcom, the creators of Resident Evil and Devil May Cry. ![]() Recently, however, the company did say that Pragmata’s production was “making steady progress”, so there’s that. Given the fact that we’ve barely seen anything from the game and have next to no knowledge about what it’s even going to be, and the fact that Capcom has been largely silent about how its development is going, this doesn’t come as much of a surprise. A new piece of artwork for the game has also been shared, which you can check out below. ![]() Capcom recently took to Twitter and said that in order to “ensure this will be an unforgettable adventure” it’s decided to shift Pragmata’s launch window into 2023. Well, as many people may have already guessed, Pragmata isn’t going to make its previously announced 2022 launch. Check out all the Pragmata trophies, latest news, previews, interviews, videos, screenshots and review from your number one PlayStation 4 resource site. Pragmata is an all-new action adventure title that depicts a near-future dystopian world on the moon through a deeply profound story and setting. Last year, the company announced Pragmata, a new sci-fi IP slated for a launch some time in 2022, but with there having been next to no updates on the game since then, the question begs asking- what’s going on with it? But the Japanese giant also has some new things that it’s working on. Capcom has been on something of a roll with its legacy IP, with the likes of Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, and Monster Hunter all doing better than they ever have. ![]() ![]() ![]() You can easily pair it with your Android phone or an iPhone via the Alexa app and start using it.

The move to a spherical design does mean the new Amazon Echo speaker is a lot wider than any of its predecessors, but the overall form factor of the Echo (4th gen) is perfect for most setups and rooms. The new spherical ball design looks pretty neat, with the controls laid on top for easy access. ![]() The design of this Echo, as you can see, is also a lot different from some of the previous cylindrical Echo speakers. Its audio output is not nearly as powerful as the Echo Studio, but there's still plenty to like, especially for its size and the asking price. As we mentioned in our Amazon Echo (4th Gen) review, it's worth the extra spend over the Echo Dot for music lovers because it packs a punch with its three-speaker setup delivering big sound. ![]() It's perfect for those who are looking to pick up a reliable smart speaker that also sounds good. There's no shortage of Echo speakers on the market but the Amazon Echo (4th Gen) is the one we recommend to most people. ![]() ![]()
