So, to give you the short version of the story, I spent about 2 or 3 hours today (mixed with a few other things) cleaning up a keyboard for one of my computers. It was a recently purchased Apple A1048 Keyboard which was purchased in a dirty state. I thought, since I had the time […]
Oh, dang, I’ve got like 20 minutes to crank out an article before we hit midnight. Time for another “eh, let’s just get this out to keep up my 1 article per day challenge” entry! Right now I’m scouring through some old hard drives from various computers which I’ve gotten over the years – some […]
Right, this is where you would normally have a post containing substantial content, but I’m not feeling up tot he challenge today, and rather than fail on day 5 of my “post every single day in September” challenge, I felt now would be as good a time as ever to break out this animated gif […]
It’s funny, for a blog with a moderate focus on gaming I don’t actually write about my own time playing games all that often. That’s quite probably due to the fact that I rarely actually spend that much time actually playing games – sometimes taking breaks spanning multiple months between times when I’ll seriously fire […]
Right now it’s 11:30 P.M. I’ve got 30 minutes to figure out what I want to write about before it’s tomorrow and I effectively fail my personal challenge to write at least one article per day for September. Well, since I don’t have much time, why not a quick write-up on just why I am […]
Here we have the finale of Jim Browning’s “Bank Login Scam” video series. In part one he showed from his end one of these scams in action and was successfully able to bait the scammer into installing a remote access tool into their computer giving Jim access to the scammer’s machine. In part two, Jim […]
Now we get to the meat of Jim Browning’s Bank Login Scam video series. In this part, we get to see behind the scenes what is actually going on with the scammers computers, and how this all works. If you haven’t seen and read about Part One, check it out here! In part one, Jim, […]
It’s time for another set of scammer videos from none other than our good friend Jim Browning. Today we have the first in a trio of videos he produced this past summer on scammers going through very.. obtuse, shall we say, methods, to get into a victims bank account, and how he got into their […]
In the previous article, I went over the gist of how I fixed a small problem with my “new” PowerMac G5 – the lack of a boot chime. After a few days of really working with the machine and trying to figure out the reason, I would find out it was really something as simple […]
Oh good, Microsoft got off their tails and actually released this video before September began! Nice. You know the drill, 4 new games this month free alongside an active Xbox Live Gold subscription. Enough talk, let’s get down to the video and the games themselves! Opening up on the Xbox One we have Prison Architect […]
At this point in our story I had a Power Mac G5, the last of the Power PC based Macintosh computers, in my possession. It worked but with a quirk in that it didn’t make the traditional “boot chime” that (until recently) all Macintosh computers had. This bugged me enough that I set out to […]
As mentioned previously, as much as I am a Windows guy I’ve always had a fondness for the Macintosh computer family. A combination of having them in school as well as seeing the awesomeness to be found in the Power Mac G5 and the Mac Pro really made me want to get some of these […]
Here’s a neat little bit of video you don’t get too often for a Delta IV – footage from onboard during launch. While this footage is always awesome to watch, and is rather common among some other boosters and launch providers, for Delta IV onboard footage has been a little scarce through the years. This […]
I thought I’d take a bit before we get into Season 3 of Angry Video Game Nerd episodes to express just why I’m reviewing all of these episodes, as well as touch on a few other points on James and the Nerd series that are worth me saying here. The very short answer to the […]
As you may have noticed, things look a little different around here. I felt like the site needed a bit of an update, so I spent some time Saturday morning changing a few things around with quite the surprising result. I really like this new look, and the simple shift to a nearly-black background I […]
