I’m still processing Dark Souls iii (sad eh?), so today was a Retro Android Platform evening 🙂 MegaDrive: Caliber.50 Playing Caliber .50 on the Genesis Strangest enemy difficulty where tanks explode quickly, enemy rockets fire faster than bullets, and bosses are mega derranged animals.

The Edward Snowden guide to practical privacy

Thanks to The Register; here’s The Edward Snowden guide to practical privacy If you’re just an average user concerned about your privacy Use Tor when browsing. You don’t have to use Tor all the time (it does slow things down considerably and some sites will also block Tor traffic). But if you are looking at or for something that you feel is sensitive, then either set up your browser to…

yubikey-neo + KeyPassX + KeyPassDroid + OwnCloud portable secure password vault Searching through F-Droid for yubico I came across a link to KeyPassDroid; I’d come across a password safe solution on the yubico site using KeyPass, but was shied away as it mentioned the premium version… I don’t mind paying for shit, although if I can solve the issue with free open source alternatives I’ll spend hours trying 🙂 So…

Shattered Pixel Dungeon

I don’t really play games on my phone, guess not having Google Play limits those titles that are available. However earlier in the week I came across Shattered Pixel Dungeon on F-Droid It’s described as: Traditional rogue like game with pixel-art graphics and simple interface. Hard to believe that in all my years of gaming I’ve never played a ‘rogue like game’… but I’m very impressed with this perma-death Android…

Yes, even the 2012 Nexus 7 will get updated to Android 5.0 Lollipop Android Central I hardly use my N7 online, so never seen much of a danger of using OFW. Fingers crossed there could be perfomace improvements, worse case I root it and drop on the quickest lit-weight CFW I can find

CyanogenMod Nexus 4

For the first time on the Nexus 4, I’ve installed a Custom ROM, and to date this was my largest fail yet. I didn’t brick the device, although the password for the encryption I’d set up was continually rejected 🙁 I had to wipe the device completely, to remove drive encryption, and start Cyanogen 10.2.1, the last stable build based on Android 4.3.1, which is apparently more secure than later…

Another Android update another exercise in rooting

4.4.3 arrived earlier this month for my Nexus 4, I’ve missed root access, but only just got around to implementing it today. This time I didn’t want to go the windows way, so I used 3 great resources: bernaerts.dyndns.org chainfire.eu Team Win Resources I’m linking this as a reference, as I’m going to have to repeat this exercise in the near future due to the imminent roll out of 4.4.4:…

phandroid.com: Download Microsoft Office for Android for free starting today! I’ve now had the opportunity to try out Office on Android, compared with Google’s Quick Office. It feels a little more prompt to react, and more feature rich… however still challenging to navigate with adult sized digits. The one dissappointment is that files cam only be opened from Microsoft One Drive (nee Skydrive)… although I guess this is more secure,…

A journey through Middle Earth

It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Tolkien’s Middle Earth, although I don’t think The Hobbit should have been stetched out to 3 epic length films, but nevertheless I’m a long time Tolkien fan boy, and this Google web project, A journey through Middle Earth, excites me more than anything I’ve come across online in nearly 20 years. Click on this link: http://middle-earth.thehobbit.com/ (I could only open it…
