Isle Trotting
This be a holding post…be ye warned Waterford I popped across the Irish Sea to do some work in Waterford last weekend. The flight was delayed and we ended up being the airport stragglers, left stranded almost an hour after the rest of the occupants had vacated. It isn’t the most comfortable place to be…

Organisation Failure and an Impromptu Shirt
Organisation Failure and an Impromptu Shirt Normally my schedule is organised. Orderly. I adopted the Microsoft calendar years ago on Windows Mobile, and migrated to Google calendar which has successfully managed my life for many years. That didn’t prevent me from turning up to work in the most casual of clothes, and moments later receiving…

Another Hardware Video: the Palit GTX 1060 6 GB
Part of an Ordinary Aggressive Marketing Campaign for my latest video. We’ve been doing some updating of the Newforge Studios hardware recently. The main editing rig is getting on a bit, and packed a Core i5 2500K, 8 GB DDR3 RAM, Radeon HD 5850 graphics card, and a Samsung 840 EVO SSD for a system…
