It's Been a While... New Life Plan... New Beginnings

Hey guys I know it's been a while since I wrote one of my blogs but hey life is life right... right...?   Any ways I have been doing a lot of life thinking this past month and I finally decided that my current job that I have right now is not going to get me anywhere I want to go, for it doesn't give me the skills I want and need to go down the career path I have chosen, so I decided to give up my hours at the job and work as a sub until I get a job that will be my first step on the road to my

#9 PEEEEEEEEEE

I've got asked by one of the teachers to look at some CCTV. It revealed a student peeing in one of the corridors and then realizing there was a camera looking right at him- he began running to the nearest toilet, grabbing TP and cleaning the puddle he made. When he finished he walked away looking at the camera with the most shameful face I've ever seen.   Some people... xD

#8 The thing that does wooosh!

AC, the acronym for Air Conditioning, also known as: The blowing thingy The woosher The air freshener (my favorite) The air blower The cold air blower The ceiling square thing   The AC has been around for ages now, I can't seem to fathom how people struggle to find the words for it... I understand that it "could" be mistaken for an air blower but the air freshener? The woosher?

#7 THAT BUTTON?

Today was a fun one. I can't seem to process how people can get lost operating a keyboard. I get a call regarding a "printing issue". I love printers.. I go down and one of the staff is trying to type her printing PIN. She is trying to do that on the number pad... that is turned off.. I turn it on and the "printing issue" is resolved.   PRINTING ISSUE?!   I go away without saying a word.   BTW I'm not rude when this happens, just stunned.

The Backfire Effect: Why Facts Don’t Win Arguments

Let’s say you’re having an argument with a friend about oh, let’s say, Obamacare, or even who the best quarterback in the NFL is. You present your friend with a set of facts that you would think would clinch your argument. And yet, while the facts you present clearly contradict your friend’s position, you discover that presenting your friend with these facts does nothing to correct his or her false or unsubstantiated belief. In fact, your friend is even more emboldened in his or her belief after

E3 News

E3 turned out great this year. The expo attracted about 52,200 people from 109 countries, even Kanye showed up this year! Anyways here is some news from the show. Overall, Sony had a great show this year. They unveiled the remaking of one of the most beloved Japanese role-playing game, Final Fantasy VII. The release date of the remade game isn’t yet known, so keep your eyes open. After many no-shows Team ICO finally unveiled The Last Guardian. The mastermind behind ICO and Shadow of the Coloss

Water Cooling: The Result

After breaking in and tuning the system to be extremely quiet for a week, I can now say that my first custom water cooling loop is preforming well and is quieter than expected. The only thing that really makes noise at lower speed is the pump. Thankfully the ASUS motherboard lets me have complete control over the speed of the fans and I can keep the pump running at its lowest setting even as the CPU warms up.   I have not noticed a temperature difference when the pump is running full speed or

#6 HACK3D

I can't believe that. Our website got hacked. Happened over the weekend. We don't host it so not our fault. People actually started thinking that if our website is down their online banking might be affected.. How do they manage to link such "facts"?

Water Cooling: The Build

Now that the water cooling components have arrived, the building has really begun. First out of the boxes were the heat sinks. The CPU water block was the easiest I have installed to date, while the GPU predictably took some time. The overall GPU size shrank significantly, reveling the nice lower motherboard heat sink once again (Yay!). Next step was to build the custom cables and rework the wiring through the case. I think these white/blue accents add quite a bit of style to this buil

#5 How about some virtualization?

Finally! After 2 months I have finally got it... THE virtualization server we always wanted. We got the cheapest price from a work college who does school IT kit now for next to nothing. A branded server- Fujitsu Primergy RX2540 M1.Specs are as following: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2620v3 (6c/12t) @2.4GHz 64GB DDR4 RAM @ 2133MHz in quad channel 3x 300GB SAS drives 15K in RAID 5 6x 3TB Hard Drives (WD Enterprise) in RAID 6 2x PRAID EP400i 4x additional SATA ports at the back- we might do SSD cac

It's Finally Happening

By the end of next week I'll finally have worked enough hours for my computer build, the sad part is that since my pay check is delayed two weeks I have to wait for the the 3rd of July to actually get all the money I need for my new rig. The good news is, that since it's right around the time of 4th of July, sales will be inevitable, meaning that I might actually pay less for my build than I previously thought (depending on the deals that will be up that is). Anyway, it's perfect timing too, be

Where to buy?

I am looking to buy an Asus NX90. Here's the catch - it has to be new or my father isn't willing to buy it. My budget is 1600USD (with one hundred USD or so leeway). Do you know anyone selling one or anywhere I can buy one? I am looking for the one with an 18.3" screen, Bang & Olufsen speakers and isn't small. Thanks for the help! fiddleplayer01

Water Cooling: The Arrival

The computer parts have arrived, being picked up during a quick vacation to Southern California. You can probably guess from that alone where the purchase was made. All the water cooling components are in transit and should be here in the next day or two. The boxes of the computer components looked rather good themselves, so I couldn't resist taking a few glamour shots of them. There are very few components in this build, which will help keep the computer interior clean. I took this chance t
