I hear similar to this so often, if an ROI from a digital project can’t be calculated, then it’s about brnad 😉

I’ve updated the Ubuntu OS on my PC this afternoon, and shock horror, now no sound! sudo alsa force-reload Thanks to It’s f.o.s.s. for the guide 🙂

I have memories as a kid, crowded around an arcade machine watching older teenage kids pour 10p pieces, which then seemed the size of wagon wheels, into a Dragon’s Lair arcade machine. People would line up their money, ready to deposit it in the slot and continue the quest, after the last players skills had failed him (never remember any girls in arcades?), or his change had been relinquished. Remember…

Latest Ubuntu released today, I have it coming down now 🙂 If it didn’t start automatically for you try: sudo do-release-upgrade No Mir, but hope KSP will now load for me? eh oh, heaps of retro arcade xbox games to try this weekend!

I don’t know why, but I’ve had this State of Decay downloaded from xbox arcade for quite a while, but I’ve been reluctant to play. Think it may be the fear of making the wrong choices, and getting too attached to characters that die off… have I mentioned before that I may take games a little too seriously 🙂 Anyway, today my journey into the zombie bush began, and except…

I’d read that today was the launch day of Ubuntu 13.10, to find it wasn’t until the end of the month… no worries, I’ve been playing with the beta Then I found Kerbal Space Program 0.22 had launched! Fantastic, except it won’t open in my Ubuntu installation 🙁 I could boot windows, but will wait and create a fresh install for 13.10 🙂 The birth of the Kraken

As another break from GTA V I’ve started playing Beyond: Two Souls on the PS3. I enjoyed Heavy Rain… although I never finished the story after I lost all of my saves 🙁 I love the idea that I can download an Android app (guess it’s on the other popular smart phone too 😉 and use it as a controller, although I don’t yet find it as ergonomic as the…

Long time coming, I’ve finally taken up Limbo (a whopping 90% @ Metacritic) The noir on blanc palette seems to be a common theme on the arcade games I’m playing lately, quite juxtaposition on the era of the new next gen high def consoles that are to be released in the coming months. Anyway, a couple of challenges in and I’m stuck, the strategy I’m employing is getting me no…

I wanted to love AndrOpen, and I do! But it’s not as usable and slick as Kingsoft Office I’m not going to be doing anything too complicated on the N7 phablet, but it’s nice to have the full Open Office option there if I need to. Kingsoft also responded better to voice input, where AndrOpen got more words incorrect and duplicated some. Another bonus of Kingsoft Office is that it…

We’re moving into the age of the paperless office at work, so I’m looking to start using my wi-fi Nexus 7 to take notes on. I can tether it to my mobile if necessary, and who knows they may one day entice BYOD by allowing us to connect our own devices to the companies wi-fi. But until then I’d like to use my Android device offline. Keep is great for…

From a Tolkien fan, and one who’s playing several mono coloured arcde games currently, this pleased me 🙂 xkcd It reminds me of playing fantasy RPG’s as a kid *cough* young adult, usually MERP or Role Master ; my friend would always play an Halfling,with a greater war horse named Bill.

Totally out of character, I’ll feel awful tomorrow, I went to #yoga!
I’m having fun with 2 more xbox live arcade titles… I seem to be spending more time on the xbox after I cancelled my 7 year subscription 🙂 The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile This mono (except for blood splurts and falling coins) shaded 2D side scrolling hack and slash is a great challenge; with a variety of weapons and moves plus end of level monstrous bad guys to tick ever box…

I’ve heaps of xbox games gathering dust and am looking to share them with friends, so I need to catalogue them quickly. I would rather not do it all by hand, so am looking for a solution via Android and barcodes. I already have barcode scanner, but need a quick way to then more the info to a spread sheet, of google documents. Video Game Tracker Scan in games, finds…

The last time I stopped blogging for an extended period wasn’t because I had stopped playing games, but one single game, Skyrim, was taking all of my digital time. This time around it’s GTA V 🙂 Am I enjoying it as much as Skyrim? Maybe not, as it doesn’t have the personalisation, and specialisation… but then I haven’t taken it online yet! I’ve completed the main story, and am now…
