Greetings, Salutations, It's Too Late To Turn Back

Greetings to you, friends and friends of friends.  It's officially too late to turn back, and the only option you have left is to see this through to the end.  This is like one of those dreadful chain letters, but with less dire portent.

I'm mainly starting this blog as an outlet for the every day tech I use in my life, be it software, hardware, firmware, wetware, or underwear.  Being a rabid fan of computing shouldn't just be squandered on killing zombies (regardless of how hard I may be trying on a given week), and since I give out so much advice and opinion about the stuff anyways, I might as well solidify my thoughts and commit them to the all-remembering Internets.  Since I'm a jack-of-many-trades, expect to hear about the likes of these:
  • Programs (internet browsers, anti-virus suites, open-source lifesavers)
  • Silicon (what's the difference between a CPU, GPU, and PSU anyways?)
  • Mechanics (or Powerful Batteries Are Serious Business)
  • The Internet and You (how to browse a bit safer, and maybe teach new router tricks after convincing it to work right in the first damn place)
  • Paranoia (and how!)
  • ... and maybe even how I think the whole world's falling apart.  This is a blog, after all!
No matter what topic I've chosen for a poorly guided rant, I do hope to keep in mind the fact that I'm not writing for other technobrains.  Instead, look for the What, Why, and How in each post and see if you can make it work for you.  If I lose you, let me know!

Enjoy intermittent profanity, hidden gems of wisdom for living (completely unintentional), and more parentheses than you can shake your fist at.  Stick with it, calisthenics are good for you!  For the sufficiently motivated, you should add your own experiences and questions to the comments, and I might even make a new post just for you!

Alright, you're free.  No 13 years of bad luck for you.  Thanks for your handful of minutes :>

  1. I'm considering giving the "underwear" tag its own feed in my reader.

  2. Hah! I meant it as the 'this is life or generic' tag :P Pretty sure some of the survivalist stuff will have that tag :P
