Well, that’s it. The final post of the year, the one where I take a look back at the previous 365 or so days and ask myself “was this all worth it?” Okay, not really, but I like to see what all happened over the past year. As I kind of “go with the flow” […]
It took quite a few hours of downloading, image selecting, editing, uploading, and article refinement to make it happen, but it’s actually complete — every single Angry Video Game Nerd episode review here on Xadara has at least one image associated with it! I’d estimate it took about 5 hours of solid work to make […]
Last month a began a process to update all of my previous Angry Video Game Nerd episode reviews to have images from the episode being reviewed. This was something I neglected when starting the project and in retrospect wish I had done from the beginning. In any case, the last batch of episodes I did […]
I know, I know, it’s already March 5th, almost 6th as I write this, but hey, I haven’t done an update since last months “Coming Soon” article which I thought would feel more natural than these, but in retrospect was even more forced feeling! Instead of talking specifics, I’ll be a bit more general on […]
I had a long post planned here, but didn’t feel it was quite right, so I’ll try to keep this as short as possible. No, I won’t have the usual in depth explanations of what I mean here – I’ve done enough of that, and and won’t waste my time explaining it further. People choose […]
Oh, look, it’s the end of the year. Cool. While a bit arbitrary it’s still an event happening, and is usually sued as a good point for recapping the past and for starting something new. That being the case, why not recap 2018 here on Xadara and put it all into perspective? Let’s begin. The […]
It’s been a good 16 days since I last wrote anything for this website. The last time I had that much of a gap between posts was probably 2 and a half years ago before I decided I’d try to write more often here and eventually focused on one article a day as a general […]
Dang, it’s been a week since the last major post here. All I’ve done since then are a few update posts which really haven’t been all that necessary. Right, I guess it’s time to get back to normal around here. I’m going to try to keep this short and to the point – no need […]
It’s the beginning of the month, time for the obligatory “what’s coming” article, and this one’s going to be something else. I know every month, it seems, I write one of these, and every month I say the same old things. You’re tired of it, I’m tired of it, everyone is tired of it. The […]
A new month means a new set of plans for what I’m going to do on the site. I rather enjoy setting up a basic plan at the beginning of the month, regardless of whether I actually stick to it or not it’s at least nice to have goals, and October is going to be […]
It’s the middle of the month, and I thought I would do a bit of a recap on the whole “one article per day no matter what” project. It’s quite a chore, honestly. Some days don’t permit me too much to be able to write anything substantial, while others, like yesterday, give me all the […]
I’ve got more normal content coming tomorrow, but for today I wanted to cover a thought I just had with regards to what I write on any given day; a problem that most any blogger will understand and relate to. Should you write about currently trending topics, or about topics which have withstood the test […]
Oh, it’s the first of the month. Might as well get this article written because, why not, right? August wasn’t a bad month, I’d say. The highlight was, of course, the Parker Solar Probe launch, which was a hell of a show. I got quite a bit of progress done on fleshing out the site […]
As I’ve been slowly documenting, I’ve had quite a few Macintosh computers enter my digital life recently, and naturally I want to incorporate these machines into my workflow. Sure, I’m a blogger primarily, and you can do that on damn near any machine that can manage to run the WordPress back end, but I feel […]
As I said I wanted to do in a previous update, comments here on Xadara are now open to whomever – no registration required, unlike how things had been for the past, oh, 5 years or more. It is my hope that this will spawn healthy discussion and fun conversation about the subject of the […]
