With the adjustable stem there is a lot adjustments that can be made to dial in your riding position.Īdjusting the angle can go from a comfortable very upright and short reach position to a lower and longer reach position that is more of a performance style. The faux leather ergonomic handlebar grips add to the comfortable and supportive feel as they also provide some wrist support. This position is similar to what you will find on a cruiser style bike. Now let’s take a closer look at the ride position of the RadCity Step-Thru.įollowing along the lines of an easy get on and go design, the ride position is comfortable and easy going.įirst of all the handlebars are swept back to create a comfortable position for the wrists which also reduces the overall reach required. This provides for some cable protection and a cleaner overall look. The RadCity has a lot of cargo options with the front and rear racks which makes this a versatile eCommuter and possibly an eTouring bike.Īnother frame highlight is the internal cable routing through the large downtube. The rear rack can handle up to 60 pounds of cargo that can be carried via bags (panniers), a basket, a large platform, or a kids seat. Rad Power Bikes states that the RadCity can handle a total payload of 275 pounds (rider + cargo).Īnd speaking of cargo, the rear rack is part of the aluminum frame as it is welded to the seat stays. That gusset provides reinforcement for everyday riding and it also provides support for any of the optional front rack/basket/platform that you may want to add for cargo carrying.Īnother example is the tubing connection from the downtube to seat tube which provide strength to the frame and some protection of the battery pack.ĭuring the riding there was very minimal noticeable flex from the frame, even when cornering quickly from side to side. The RadCity Step-Thru frame is constructed of sculpted 6061 aluminum tubing to create the large step-thru area while adding reinforcing tubing and gussets to provide a strong frame.Ī good example of the reinforcing gusset is at the headtube to downtube connection. There is also a triangle frame RadCity model in these frame sizes:ġ6″ which fits riders in height from 5’4″ to 5’11”ġ9″ which fits riders in height from 5’11” – 6’6″ There is a lot of adjustability in the seat post height and the handlebar stem to help with dialing in your preferred riding position. ![]() Rad Power Bikes states that the RadCity Step-Thru will work for riders in height from 4’10” to 6’2″. The same is true for getting off the bike. Its 20″ standover height makes it easy to lift your leg through the frame for easy get on and go riding.

With 31 tiers in Halo Infinite's Rank system, there’s plenty of motivation for players to perform better and move up the tiers. Minimize your deaths and be a productive member of your team, helping them win. What does it mean to perform well? That should be obvious, but it means you need to get kills, assists, and complete in-game objectives if there are any. If you go on a slide, however, you could find yourself at a lower tier. If you string together several good matches in a row, you should be on the move. This should make the matches highly competitive, with those who perform well seeing their Rank increase, and those who perform poorly dropping down a bit. You should be matched against players with a similar Rank to yourself. The way to move up in Rank while playing in Ranked Arena is to perform well. This allows the game to match you with players who are using the same type of input device. The Solo/Duo Ranked Queue can only be entered solo, or as a team of two, and you must select whether your input is keyboard/mouse or a controller. The Open Ranked Queue features crossplay and allows for fireteams of up to four people. You will be given a separate Rank for each queue and will need to complete the 10 Ranked Placement matches to earn a Rank in each one. It should be noted that Halo Infinite features two separate Ranked Queues that you can use to find a match. Once you complete the 10 matches, you’ll unlock an achievement called All About the Grind, which means you’ve successfully unlocked an official Rank in Halo Infinite’s Ranked Arena. Consider these matches an evaluation to figure out what your starting Rank should be. To earn a Rank in Halo Infinite, you must first play 10 Ranked Placement matches in the Ranked Arena. It can also be wildly infuriating if you believe you’re better than your Rank suggests. It’s a system that encourages you to dig into the finer details of your game and look for ways to improve. The entire point of the system is for you to be unsatisfied with your Rank and work to get better so you can move up. If you find yourself in a higher tier and struggling, or in a lower tier and dominating, you’ll move accordingly, eventually landing in a place that reflects your skill level. The beautiful thing about the Halo Infinite ranking system is that you are exactly where you should be. At the moment, it appears to be a mixture of personal performance and your win/loss ratio. Right now, we don’t have any solid data on the Halo Infinite Ranks and what it takes to move from one to the next but rest easy knowing we’re working on it. These are the ranks and tiers in the Ranked Arena playlist: Halo Infinite Ranks - Ranked Arena This is a Rank in and of itself and is reserved for the very best competitive Halo Infinite players. The exception is Onyx, the top tier in Halo Infinite.

Below you’ll find a table of Halo Infinite’s Ranks, an explanation of how to get a Rank, and how the ranking system works.

Clearly I have not been updating this blog, but one of the reasons for that is that emulation has become much more user-friendly in the past few years. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you're struggling to find the perfect sofa to fit this slightly awkward space, our guide to choosing a comfy sofa can help. If you're struggling to find the best way of positioning your sofa, we recommend using an area rug, like our luxury hair on hide rugs, to help divide the space. An L-shaped sofa with the shorter end adjacent to the dining zone will ensure conversation can flow uninterrupted. Try placing a high-back chair and pouffe box in the far corner at an angle that focuses in on the rest of the room. You'll also need to think about seating and sofa layout ideas. This makes it less separated and therefore a more sociable living room design. However, they are more integrated, with a small side table being the only thing between the two. Similar to the above layout, this floorplan offers both a dining and entertainment space. While small living room layouts may not allow everything to be spaced out too much, this will work well for medium and larger lounges that have plenty of room to play around with. Instead, you should be sure to leave some space behind your sofa if possible and fill the other areas of your living room with smaller pieces of furniture. Having your furniture pushed up against the walls can leave the rest of your room looking bare and your walls looking chaotic. Paying attention to this colour rule can help you with your living room plan. The 10-30-60 ratio dictates that a well-designed space will consist of three main colours: the dominant colour that covers 60% of the area, a secondary colour which makes up 30% of the space and a bold accent colour that takes up the remaining 10%. Bearing in mind the 10-30-60 colour ratio We will cover this in more detail when we share our living room layout ideas. You can even have multiple conversation areas. Similarly, you will need to make sure that any seats are angled towards each other. This will involve trying different positions for your furniture and paying attention to whether there are any obstructions standing in the way of the seating, or whether it's hard to hear people on the other sofa. This means you will need to consider how far apart your seating areas can be without disrupting the flow of conversation. Your living room is where you'll do most of your hosting and socialising, so it's important that the layout encourages conversation. This secondary space is used for things like additional seating, storage, or reading corners. This means dividing the space into two sections: one large area that occupies two thirds of the room and contains the main pieces of furniture and one much smaller area which makes up the remaining third. If you're finding it tricky to achieve the right balance, following the golden ratio of 2:1 when arranging your furniture can help. If you want to create a really unique space, you could even design your own bespoke sofa for a personal touch. For example, a standard linear sofa will look best complemented with a round coffee table. There should also be a good variation in the shapes of any pieces of furniture you choose to include. To do this, you'll need to consider the size and positioning of each piece to make sure that you don't place all of the large furniture at one side of the room, for example. Finding balance when arranging your furnitureīalance is key in interior design, and it's particularly important that you get it right when it comes to planning the placement of furniture in your living room. If your living room is open plan and leads to other areas of your home, like the kitchen, you can plan your furniture placement, so it distinguishes the space from neighbouring ones. But, it's important to consider how you will move around the space and how to incorporate your ideas as practically as possible. When you've got plenty of new decorating ideas in your head, it can be easy to get carried away with furniture arrangement ideas. ![]() Once you've decided on this, you can then begin planning the rest of your décor around your focus piece. In fact, a fireplace, mirror, painting, or fancy piece of furniture can be the main attraction in your lounge if you wish. Many homeowners would agree that the TV is the point of interest in their lounge, but it doesn't have to be. Finding a focal point in your living roomĮvery living room will have a focal point, which will typically be dictated by the purpose of the space. Here, we will be discussing what you should be thinking about from finding a focal point to using all of the space available to you. Before you begin designing your dream living room, it'll be useful to know the most important factors of living room design. ![]() ![]() ![]() It is available for Windows and Linux platforms. The better and more effective the password dictionary is, the more likely it is that it will crack the password. As you already know, the success of the attack depends on the dictionary of passwords. It basically performs dictionary attacks against a wireless network to guess the password. Aircrack-ng can be used for any NIC which supports raw monitoring mode. This tool comes with WEP/WPA/WPA2-PSK cracker and analysis tools to perform attacks on Wi-Fi 802.11. ![]() I also mentioned this tool in our older post on most popular password-cracking tools. This is a popular brute force wifi password cracking tool available for free. I am sure you already know about the Aircrack-ng tool. ![]() Popular tools for brute force attacks Aircrack-ng In this post, I am going to add a few brute force password-cracking tools for different protocols. You can use it in any software, any website or any protocol which does not block requests after a few invalid trials. Now, you know that a brute-forcing attack is mainly used for password cracking. In this case, you can try the same password and guess the different usernames until you find the working combination. Imagine if you know a password but do not have any idea of the usernames. In this, the attacker tries one password against multiple usernames. It takes a reverse approach in password cracking. Reverse brute force attackĪ reverse brute force attack is another term that is associated with password cracking. Therefore, the higher the type of encryption (64-bit, 128-bit or 256-bit encryption) used to encrypt the password, the longer it can take to break. In this, the hash is generated from random passwords and then this hash is matched with a target hash until the attacker finds the correct one. In this way, it can find hidden pages on any website.īrute force is also used to crack the hash and guess a password from a given hash. If the page does not exist, it will show a 404 response on a success, the response will be 200. Similarly, for discovering hidden pages, the attacker tries to guess the name of the page, sends requests and sees the response. However, for offline software, things are not as easy to secure. Account lockout is another way to prevent the attacker from performing brute force attacks on web applications. This makes it hard for attackers to guess the password, and brute force attacks will take too much time. To prevent password cracking from brute force attacks, one should always use long and complex passwords. These attacks can take several minutes to several hours or several years, depending on the system used and length of password. However, this traditional technique will take longer when the password is long enough. In a traditional brute force attack, the attacker just tries the combination of letters and numbers to generate a password sequentially. If this dictionary contains the correct password, the attacker will succeed. The attacker tries these passwords one by one for authentication. In this, the attacker uses a password dictionary that contains millions of words that can be used as a password. The most common and easiest to understand example of the brute force attack is the dictionary attack to crack passwords. If it is larger, it will take more time, but there is a better probability of success. ![]() Success depends on the set of predefined values. A brute force attack when an attacker uses a set of predefined values to attack a target and analyze the response until he succeeds. ![]() |
