    [The JukeBox] #76 – CHVRCHES – Warning Call

    Mirror’s Edge Catalyst is a 2016 remake prequal of the original Mirror’s Edge game that released in 2008.

    I recently completed the game a month ago and I have always been a fanatic of the atheistic of Faith Connors (the protagonist that you play as) and the atheistic of the city of Glass.

    In the main ‘hub’ area where you meet up with Noah at the start of the game, there is a Jukebox. Interacting with it allows you to play music. Cycling through songs eventually brings you to this track.

    I knew of CHVRCHES from their other song: The Mother We Share but I never took anytime to look into them. Suffice to say that after The Mother We Share and Warning Call, I will be listening to them more.

    Lyrics:

    I hear it
    Echoing of every place that we’ve called our home
    And I don’t talk
    Of any time I ever believed in the unknown
    I need it
    So I hold on to every mistake that I made alone
    And I don’t lie
    When I say that we will never return to closing doors

    Sleep tight in a new light
    Through another warning call
    Look down on the cold ground
    No one try to break the fall

    I feel it
    Moving in an another direction we call our own
    And I won’t chase
    Anyone who ever believed in what they stole
    I need it
    So I hold on to every piece of mine that I chose
    And I don’t lie
    When I say that we will never return to closing doors

    Sleep tight in a new light
    Through another warning call
    Look down on the cold ground
    No one try to break the fall

    Say you’ll remember
    To keep it all inside
    You can run for the skyline
    Your eyes open wide

    Say you’ll remember
    To keep it all inside
    You can run for the skyline
    Your eyes open wide

    Don’t look away
    (It’s a memory)
    Cause when we see it we are closer
    Don’t look away
    Cause when we see it we are near

    Say you’ll remember
    To keep it all inside
    You can run for the skyline
    Your eyes open wide

    Say you’ll remember
    To keep it all inside
    You can run for the skyline
    Your eyes open wide

    It’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory
    It’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory
    It’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory
    It’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory, it’s a memory

  • Quick Tip: Restore the older Volume Mixer in Windows 11

    Quick Tip: Restore the older Volume Mixer in Windows 11

    Recently Microsoft released an update for Windows 11 that doesn’t allow you to open the older version of the Volume Mixer.

    Old Volume Mixer
    New Volume Mixer within ‘Settings’

    To restore the old Volume Mixer, go to:

    Start >> Type into the search box sndvol.exe and press enter.

    This will open it up. Once it’s open, Right-click on the icon on the taskbar and click ‘Pin to taskbar’ and drag it beside the Start button for easy access.

    Way better than using the clunky ‘Settings’ menu.

    How to upgrade Ghost 5 on Plesk Obsidian

    This is a follow-on to my previous post about installing Ghost 5 on Plesk Obsidian. Please check it out!

    🚨

    This is actually really simple, but, we want to be protected first!

    Go into your Ghost site, click on the Cog “⚙” at the bottom and click on “Labs” and click on “Export your content” to download the content.

    When that is done, head into Plesk.

    • Go to “Docker” on the left-hand side.
    • Find your container. Eg. padraig_is_awesome
    • Click on “Details”
    • Click “Recreate”
    • Choose the latest version numbered. Do NOT choose latest
    In this example: “4.0.1 (Current)” is the version that I have installed currently and we want to choose “4.1.0” as the new version!
    • DO NOT CHECK THE BOX for “Reset variables to default”. This will break your site!
    • Click on “Recreate” and after a few seconds, it will be upgraded.

    You can check the version of your site by going into your Ghost admin panel, clicking on the avatar on the bottom left and clicking on “About Ghost”
