More job change decisions

So here I am, coming to the realization that maybe I should not have moved back home. I am now stuck with an employer that I am disgusting even more due to politics and bureaucracy, and stuck in a town that has no employment for IT people. I recently had an interview for an IT position in another community, two hours away. That's not too bad I suppose, as it will allow me to remain close to my family and it's not in a big city. Why did I move back to a small hick town? Well, the big city was bri

My rev.... Thoughts on LINE5 Headphone Out Switcher

So basicly I'm heading off Battlefield 4. I'll still do thoughts on patches if any major balance related comes. But as I'm taking some time off game itself, I need first to get back in to be able to analyse patch impact. In meanwhile.... This will be english side of my personal blog in which I post irregularly about my tech hobby. And this little thing I just got will be first in that sense.

Start of project and the headache that ensued...

I was goofing about and found that there's a non official version of android for x86 platforms. I decided that it would be an interesting idea to try to get 4.4.2 Kit Kat running on an old Toshiba laptop i have just lying around. First things first, we need to download the iso, so I did. I then tried about 10 times to get it in a bootable state on my USB drive so that my laptop would recognize it. Windows 8 hates me and doesn't like to format drives to FAT32... Anyway, i finally got it working a

My summer so far

So although I have just been on vacation for 4 days, I have been having a lot of fun so far! I have been unusually social, went out basically everyday, and today I had a nice relaxing day at home :) Friday I went into the city with friends, Saturday went to a huge amusement park (Prater in vienna if anyone knows it) and yesterday went to a pretty epic houseparty. I think the only bad thing of it so far was I have been wasting a lot of time worrying about pretty stupid stuff or just stuff that

The "s-peen" Theory

Ok, first some context. Today was the award and diploma ceremony at my school. You know, the day where all the smart kids get some recognition. It also means that parents have what I like to call the equivalent of "e-peen" contests, "s-peen" contests (school peen). Parents just gather around in little groups and start rubbing in each other's faces what their kid did. "Oh, my kid had the best grade in Math of the school!" "Mine had the best Sciences one!", what are you even trying to do? We all

The Pains of Being a Good Student

Hello! Ok, I'm a good student, I have good grades (>90% normally), behave well, etc. I'm the best student of my class, and that leads some of my classmates/teacher having wrong ideas about me. Yes, I'm a good student, but that doesn't mean that I'm freaking Wikipedia, ok? Please don't call me 20 times the day before a test, I'll help you, but when you start calling me 20 times along with other people it get's hard, I also have to study, remember that. If I'm a good student it doesn't mean
