Officejet 

Via Flickr: I’ve been having to print out more and more documents lately (mostly assignments for school) so I bought myself a printer. Specifically, I bought a printer that used AirPrint because I’m a bit of an idiot, and wasn’t happy using the family’s Epson one that didn’t. But really, the main reason I opted [...]

What’s on my Mac OS X Dock? 

From left to right: Finder LaunchPad (For those not familliar with Mac OS X Lion, LaunchPad fills your screen with what looks like an iOS home screen, complete with jiggling apps if you hold down on them with a long click.) Mission Control (According to Apple: “Mission Control brings together Exposé, Dashboard, Spaces, and full-screen apps [...]

What’s on my Windows 7 Taskbar? 

Tonnes and tonnes of things have happened since my last post–Ben came to visit, he Ty and I had an awesome amount of fun for 5 straight days, mostly consisting of playing Warhammer 40k, I contracted a cold which took a week to get over, I attended my first two classes at Capilano University, and [...]

An SSD in Time Saves Nine 

I’ve had an SSD since I built Yangtze-Kiang (my main gaming rig) in late 2010/early 2011, and it has rocked my socks off ever since. I bought Shenandoah (my MacBook Pro) in April 2011, but opted to get the cheaper SSD-free version, since Apple was charging roughly twice as much as an SSD was worth [...]

Finished Product 

Via Flickr: Sat down and finished the Land Raider Crusader/Redeemer tonight, took another 3.5 hours, totaling around 8.5. That’s a long time for one build. I’m sure out of practice. Luckily this time around the time flew by as I was talking to Ben and chatting with him over Skype (and webcams) whilst we both [...]

Liturgies of Blood 

Odd name, yes, but it refers to the fact that I’ve jumped head first once more into the world of Warhammer 40,000.  What does that mean exactly? Well, it means that for the first time since.. August or September (not sure when exactly) I’ll be playing 40k again, and for the first time since early [...]

Blame it on the Goose 

Via Flickr: Anyone who knows me even a little bit probably knows my stance on alcohol: I’m not a big fan. The reason is threefold: 1) I see far too many people waste their lives away getting drunk or high on alcohol or worse, and it seems to control their life. I’ve seen other people [...]

Invisible Shield 

I knew when I bought my iPad 2 that I would absolutely, bar none, need a screen shield for the device. It has an enormous beautiful screen, and to not protect such a work of art seems like a crime against aesthetics. This point of view might be because my boss has an iPad 2 [...]
