My buddy Prince Watercress had a bit of an issue a few nights ago. After updating his PC to Windows 10 build 1903 his system would start up in the middle of the night which, as you could imagine, was a bit of an annoyance to him. Now, Watercress decided to ask on Reddit, namely […]
We’re at the end of the month, which means another update article on this chaotic little site I like to call my digital home. We’re at the middle of the year now – 2019 is halfway done and so far, eh, it’s been an okay year. I’ve been busy, a bit more busy than I […]
Microsoft pushed it till the very end of the month again, but here we go: Another month, another set of free games with an Xbox Live Gold membership! I know I often am disappointed in these lists, but each month I always hope for the best from the upcoming lineup, as you never know when […]
Moving directly on from the previous episode on Dracula games, we have James covering games based on the Frankenstein story, with a nice little twist thrown in for his classic Halloween theatrics. James is playing the Nerd as Dr. Frankenstein (or, well, Dr. Franken-Nerd, I guess, to be accurate to the story) who creates a […]
Is it Halloween already? No, not really. Not at all — it’s still June right now, but this is where we are in the Angry Video Game Nerd series and as such today we’ll be looking at an episode focusing on games based on the Dracula story. The Nerd isn’t doing the most obvious ones […]
A few years ago I wrote an article titled “My Top 10 80’s Songs That Aren’t By Michael Jackson.” That article was written with the intention that I would do a top 10 Michael Jackson song list, and as you can tell from the title, this is that article. Today, June 25th 2019, marks 10 […]
It’s been quite a while since we last looked at a Computer Chronicles episode, and I thought today would be a good day to rectify this. Today we’re going to take a look at an episode from 1991 involving file compression. Yes, exciting, I know. In all seriousness it is a somewhat interesting topic – […]
Ah Dick Tracey. That name takes me back to the early 90’s quite well. As this episode of The Angry Video Game Nerd explains in its opening, Dick Tracey was a major motion picture release in 1990, based off of a somewhat obscure comic strip from the 30’s. While there had been other media based […]
To say the “new” Mac Pro is controversial among the enthusiast Macintosh fan scene would be an understatement. For as many people are out there who can say positives about the machine, there are just as many who have quite a bit negative to say, usually focusing on the price more than anything else. That’s […]
From time to time I like to give a little space for my friend Prince Watercress to share thoughts, comments, what have you. Today I thought I’d give our echidna obsessed friend a chance to share his comments on New Coke. He ordered some the same time I did, and, in retrospect, had this to […]
A few weeks ago, just a bit before WWDC, there was a small Apple announcement which caught me by surprise — an update to the iPod Touch product line! I know, I’m late as hell to write about this but whatever. I’m going to be completely honest here. As the title suggests, I thought Apple […]
Last Tuesday my Stranger Things Coke order, which included 2 cans of the infamous 1985 “New Coke” formula, came in . This is something I’ve been wanting to try for much of my life, but especially over the past few years have been thinking Coke as a company should bring back in some capacity and, […]
Yes, I know it’s quite the dramatic title. Figured I’d use tactics that were common on YouTube to get some extra attention to this article — more than it already would get naturally. “Play their game” as they say. The other night I finally committed to a decision I had been considering for some time […]
Today, June 12th 2019 marks 10 years since the mandated day that terrestrial television — you know, the “over the air” type you get with an antenna — was set to end analog broadcasts and go “all digital.” It’s actually one hell of a complicated story — far too much for me to go into […]
It’s been a week since Apple’s WWDC event where, among many other things, they finally announced a new Mac Pro, nearly 6 years after the release of the, in retrospect, maligned “trash can” 2013 system. I wanted to let a little time pass before I gave my thoughts on the system, not only so I […]
