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…

That’s a Fine Looking Barbecue Pit…I mean keyboard
Another day, another Simpsons reference. Things don’t always turn out as planned, or as beautiful as on the front of the box. I had my last scheduled day in clinical medicine on Monday. I was working the Easter Monday holiday, but that didn’t matter too much. It was a momentous occasion. One of my last…

Food Rebel – Ramen at Bia Rebel
I’m back in business, once again. My Dell Inspiron 7000 Gaming is making the long trip to Germany via UPS to have a pesky power cutting problem fixed (hopefully). I spent the evening resurrecting my Dell Studio XPS 16 with Windows 10, and finally got round to writing this post. Time for a food adventure,…

Reasons Not to Check Your Baggage
“Why not check your baggage?” You’ll get priority boarding, and your bag will go on last so it’ll come off first at the other end. I couldn’t face trying to get a large carry-on into the cabin on a busy flight to London Gatwick, so it seemed like the perfect solution. Surprisingly, this post bears…

Breaking my own Copyright: Mother’s Day at Lismaine Cottage
This a a shameless re-post of a blog I wrote for Lismaine Cottage, my parents bed and breakfast establishment, on Mothering Sunday. The reason I want to share it is not just that it gives me something easy to post, but the cake was so damn good. This cake was certainly not a lie. Enjoy!…

The Satellite Saga: Phase 1
I’m off to England to reside for the minimum amount of time to allow us to give notice to marry. Apparently the registry office resides in the dark ages, and being a citizen of the United Kingdom isn’t quite enough to get married there. I’ve just finished a set of nights, and another project. The…

Get ready for the mystery of… The Reversing Capslock It all started innocently enough with a malfunctioning computer. This is not an uncommon occurrence with dad’s computer, and I…

Back to the Future…Part III
I’m back! And Christmas is over. So there has never been a better time for a vaguely Christmas-themed special. This time, I’m playing Back to the Future Part III on the Sega Mega Drive (Genesis for the American folks). If I told you the game was great…I’d be lying. It’s not one I would recommend,…

An Alternative Christmas
Christmas has been and gone for another year, but there’s still time for…Christmas? Yes, we had our Christmas dinner on Friday the 22nd of December as I’m visiting Sarah in England from the 23rd to the 26th. I spend the past week working nights, and was struck down with a bad case of the cold…

Ordinary Decent Halloween
I’m back, and only a week too late for Halloween, but it didn’t stop me from putting together a Halloween special! For this video, the turnaround time was much shorter. I was hoping to put it together in one evening in time for Halloween, but that was too optimistic. Instead, I spent a few hours…
