Under Network, click Change proxy settings.Click the Google Chrome – Settings icon (Settings) icon, and then click Settings.To clear the SSL state in Chrome on Windows, follow these steps: Just like clearing your browser’s cache this can sometimes help if things get out of sync. Cipher suite Clear the SSL State In ChromeĪnother thing to try is clearing the SSL state in Chrome. You can view the current cipher suite in the SSL Labs tool (as seen below). ![]() So you should make sure the server configuration is enabled with a different cipher suite. Security researchers, Google, and Microsoft recommend that RC4 be disabled. Why? Because everything usually takes longer to upgrade and update in bigger and more complex configurations. This is not very common, but it could happen in say larger enterprise deployments that require RC4. TLS 1.3 server support Check RC4 Cipher SuiteĪnother reason according to Google’s documentation for ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH is that the RC4 cipher suite was removed in Chrome version 48. If it is old, reach out to your host and ask them to update their TLS version. Under configuration, it will show you the current version of TLS running on the server with that certificate. This is something the SSL Labs tool can also help with. (Suggested reading: if you’re using legacy TLS versions, you might want to fix ERR_SSL_OBSOLETE_VERSION Notifications in Chrome). Cloudflare also enables TLS 1.3 by default. Kinsta supports TLS 1.3 on all of our servers and our Kinsta CDN. If you are a Kinsta customer you never have to worry about this as we always upgrade our servers to the latest and greatest supported versions. Ideally, it should be running at least TLS 1.2 (better yet, TLS 1.3). ![]() That is where a tool like SSL Labs can come in handy.Īnother possible reason is that the TLS version running on the web server is old. However, in our case, the ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH error actually prevented us from being able to check it in Chrome DevTools. Remember though, there are wildcard certificates and other variations, but for a typical site, it should match exactly. If this doesn’t match the current site you’re on, this is a problem. Right-click anywhere on the website and click on “Inspect.” Then click on the security tab and click on “View certificate.” The issued domain will show in the certificate information. The domain name alias is for a website whose name is different, but the alias was not included in the certificate.Īnother easy way to check the current domain name issue on the certificate is to open up Chrome DevTools on the site.The site uses a content delivery network (CDN) that doesn’t support SSL.The site no longer exists, yet the domain still points to the old IP address, where some other site is now hosted.The site does not use SSL, but shares an IP address with some other site that does.As SSL Labs states, a mismatch can be a number of things such as: As you can see from the SSL Labs test below, this is pretty quick and easy to diagnose. ![]() In this particular instance, the customer migrating to Kinsta had a certificate name mismatch which was throwing up the ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH error. Check SSL certificate Check for Certificate Name Mismatch It could take a minute or two to scan your site’s SSL/TLS configuration on your web server. You can also select the option to hide public results if you prefer. It is very reliable and we use it for all Kinsta clients when verifying certificates. Simply input your domain into the Hostname field and click on “Submit.” Check Out Our Video Guide to Fixing SSL Errors If you see this error, the first and easiest place to start is to perform an SSL check on the certificate that is installed on the site.

![]() “Peppermint has a reputation for being psychologically or mentally alerting,” Dr. Researchers from Northumbria University’s Department of Psychology found peppermint tea seemed to improve alertness and boost memory. Turns out there’s some science to back up Olson’s claims. Olson was quick to point out the natural and non-jittery nature of the oils but says that your “funny cologne” may give you some looks in the hallway. “A dab of lemon oil or peppermint oil on your wrists or neck can give you a renewed sense of alertness,” ER nurse Curtis Olson wrote in . Nick Tsourmas, an OB-GYN resident in New York, told Mattress Clarity via email. Obviously they say to not rely on that, but a little caffeine is your best friend mid-way through your shift,” Dr. “There definitely are strategies to keeping awake - coffee is key. They found that caffeine “appeared to reduce errors compared to placebos or naps, and improve performance in various neuropsychological tests, including those focusing on memory, attention, perception and concept formation and reasoning,” according to ScienceDaily. In 2010, researchers from the London School of Tropical Medicine reviewed 13 trials that looked at how caffeine affected the performance of shift workers. When it comes to surviving a long shift, caffeine may be one of the most effective ways to stay awake. ![]() Here are some of the best tools to put in the arsenal. When it comes to surviving a long shift, there’s more than one way to stay awake. We’ve done the research and talked with professionals to get their thoughts on the best ways to stay awake during a long shift. But the good news is that a few practical steps may make extended hours at least slightly more manageable. There is no doubt the long shifts and other demands placed on medical professionals can be nothing short of grueling. RELATED: The Benefits of Getting More Sleep This challenging schedule continues to be a controversial topic, with many health experts concerned about the fact that intense work schedules are associated with increased health risks for both patients and caregivers. ![]() “Residents in America are expected to spend up to 80 hours a week in the hospital and endure single shifts that routinely last up to 28 hours - with such workdays required about four times a month, on average,” wrote Ryan Park for The Atlantic. But for doctors and others in the field of medicine, the need to stay awake and alert in order to provide the best level of patient care. ![]() Working overnight shifts or extra-long hours can take its toll on anyone’s health.Īfter all, there’s a huge body of research connecting long shifts with sleep deprivation and its many physical and mental health effects. ![]() ![]() The personal journeys of the protagonists were complimented by the silent stories demonstrated by the environments you were free to explore. The best aspect for me was that, outside of a novel, the enforced action of controlling characters through such extreme emotions and actions stimulated empathy or at least an understanding of their motives. I do think that the gameplay was top notch however, with better artificial intelligence than most enemies in games. There is an awful lot of exposition and scrounging for resources between action scenes. I do agree that if someone was looking for a straightforward action game then this game would not be worthwhile. This environmental storytelling was amazing yet not forced upon a player and I feel another reason why it works better than a forced 30 minute, spelled out excursion in a television or movie. Further investigations would show how this attempt failed so tragically. Highlights were the traces of a family who lived in an aquarium which had stencil drawings on the walls by the children who lived there.Īs a father it was really affecting to imagine how this family had tried to make a safe environment for their children while surrounded by the horrors of this new world. Outside of this morality tale I feel the environments in the game told so many tales that could be uncovered through documents and, more subtly, by the traces left behind by the individuals who lived and died within them. PlayStation Showcase was Sony at its worst and a major disappointment for PS5 This may simply due to one trauma being older than another's rather than just cliched switch of 'who is the real villain of the piece'. If there is a fundamental difference to the two character's journeys, then I would say Ellie certainly becomes more self-destructive and irrational as her story continues whereas the other character becomes much more nuanced and questioning of her actions. ![]() I am sure there may be some who will fundamentally disagree with me, but I feel that if I had also been through the same traumas as these two protagonists then I would likely also be capable of similar atrocities in the name of revenge. Both of the main protagonists in The Last Of Us 2 are fundamentally scarred by a perceived injustice and I have sympathy with both perspectives. I disagreed with Janus who thought Naughty Dog were more sympathetic with Ellie. These concepts were shown to be as fictional as with most complex human emotions. I feel that although we can all take the moral high ground when it comes to the actions of others, one must also weigh up that person's perspective.Īt the beginning of The Last Of Us Part 2 I would have described a certain person as fundamentally evil and another fundamentally good. The feeling of being 'forced' as the controlling player to commit violent retribution eventually did make me consider revenge as an outsider looking in. The feeling of guilty compliance with actions you do not necessarily agree with is something that cannot be replicated in other mediums. By the time I was back playing Ellie I was revisited by the same feeling of unease in taking over this character as I had done with the 'villain'. This physical connection of control seemed to subtly compel empathy almost as much as the excellent plot and fantastic writing. I feel that by being a video game that literally compels you to inhabit and control the protagonist's actions you do 'live' their lives in a way that cannot be mirrored by other media platforms. This is so much easier to do from a complete outsider's perspective. The genius of this was having a whole new set of perspectives forced on me until you realise that tragedies that force people down certain paths are almost impossible to moralise on. This person was vile and 'my' enemy alongside Ellie's. I am not sure how spoilery I can be but at one point you take control of another character, in many ways the main villain for want of a better word. Interestingly they both involved your character unable to prevent an atrocity committed before your/their eyes. Only once have I felt similarly engaged in following a protagonist's quest for vengeance and that was in The Darkness. You are generally the goodie vs the baddie and killing digitally is about as morally disturbing as making a cup of tea. ![]() The majority of video games these days are very black and white in their storytelling. I was psyched up for 'helping' Ellie take revenge and, in my experience, I have never felt a genuine desire to 'kill' another set of characters in a video game. After a certain, horrific tragedy occurs In The Last Of Us Part 2, which sets the tone of the game and sees Ellie set out on a quest for vengeance, I was finally fully invested. ![]() ![]() If you are building a gaming PC, the Intel Core i9-12900K is second to none in terms of gaming performance.

"One of the core principles of observational filmmaking, I think, is that you should minimise your presence. "I love how customisable the EOS C300 and EOS C500 cameras are," Daniel says. There are other features of the EOS C500 Mark II that Daniel highlights as being important for documentary shooting in fast-moving situations. It means you can correct any problems in post-production." If the light suddenly changes then the exposure might be off by a stop or two in either direction, so having that dynamic range is really useful. ![]() ![]() "When you're filming a protest, for example, you're rushing and under a bit of stress. "Having 15+ stops of dynamic range to play with in post is just great," Daniel says. The camera's dynamic range was the other big benefit. Suddenly, filming in a car feels much more spacious." That full-frame sensor when paired with a 24-105mm or 24-70mm L-series lens gives you so much more room than on a crop sensor. Frequently when you're filming documentaries, you're shooting in cramped conditions, such as in a car or a small room. "The first reason was its full-frame sensor. There were two main reasons for choosing the EOS C500 Mark II, he explains. He now uses an EOS C500 Mark II, with an EOS C300 Mark III as his B-cam. When he was considering upgrading from the EOS C300 Mark II, he tested out a number of different cameras. After that I moved to the EOS C300 and EOS C100, before mostly staying with the EOS C300 Mark I and Mark II." "So that was my first camera of choice at that time. "I was massively influenced by a surge of online documentaries in the early 2010s, and a lot of those were being made on the EOS 5D Mark II," he says. So, if you've got 20 minutes in total and 15 minutes of that time is spent filming with a contributor, you know you'll have five minutes at the end to spin around the location and try to get the editor as much material as possible to piece the sequence together."ĭocumentary TV shooting with the EOS C500 Mark IIĭaniel has shot almost exclusively with Canon cameras throughout his career and began making documentaries with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II (now succeeded by the EOS 5D Mark IV). "A lot of the time in documentary filmmaking you might have access to a location for a very limited amount of time, for whatever reason. "I approach a shoot with the idea that I'm filming for an edit, and working through a mental checklist of shots," he says. He's taken his cameras to many countries around the world, and in 2022 he won two Emmy awards as part of the team behind the VICE News documentary Inside the Battle for Jerusalem.ĭaniel says his background in post-production has benefitted his documentary TV shooting.
