Here are 8 things that sum up the things I picked up this past year. I hope to pick up more as I continue my journey and look forward to my next Orbit. Define what success is to you – the earlier you know what success is to you, the more time you’ll have to […]
I started web logging (blogging) back in 1999 when i got into web development. Way before WordPress, where you had to code your own version of blog websites on GeoCities, SpacePorts or similar free hosting platforms. Somewhere between 2005 and now i stopped since it became main stream. Now that the band wagon has predominantly […]
I recently came across malware in my WordPress installation even though I am running the latest version of WordPress and not running any other plugin apart from JetPack. I tried removing the malware and updating all the WordPress files only to get infected again a few days after. So Far these steps have mitigated the […]
I encountered some errors compiling old projects using my old node workflow which turned out to be the result of a lot of the packages being deprecated. gyp ERR! stack Error: Can’t find Python executable “python”, you can set the PYTHON env variable. Luckily it was an easy fix, I simple had to install the […]
Preferred the first book. Hopefully the third one is better. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/279561.Broken_Angels?from_search=true
(of a person or manner) showing little concern for the feelings of others; harsh A lot of people (Family included) find me abrasive and that’s okay. People cope in their own unique way and if they find me abrasive in order to understand where I’m coming from then that’s fine. Like Mark Manson said: You […]
No this is something I can give a fuck about. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28257707-the-subtle-art-of-not-giving-a-f-ck?from_search=true
Wife got me an advanced birthday gift which I am totally stoked on! I’ll probably receive it a month after my birthday and I can hardly wait! Thankfully DAN, NCase and NFC got into a colab with Lian-Li a.k.a. SFF Lab to make the fabrication and shipping significantly cheaper, especially for Asian customers since it […]
Not really a fan of detective stories but this caught my fancy. Kinda hard to follow the story at times though. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40445.Altered_Carbon?from_search=true
My least favorite book in the Robert (forever-bachelor) Langdon series. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32283133-origin?from_search=true
Updated my shoe box for the coming summer heat: Replaced stock AMD cooler with a Noctua L9i with AM4 mounting kit Added a 92mmx25mm Noctua fan on the side Added a 120mm Noctua fan in the front Added a Seagate 2tb SSHD drive for my media and games. Temperatures seems to be nominal, everything considered. […]
The simple truth of it is i want some resemblance of control. Where i can tell myself matter-of-fact that i had significant influence on the outcome of my undertaking. A safe emotional and mental environment where i can break and rebuild myself in every aspect of life away from the judging eyes of my peers […]
Wayward Pines Series (3 books) Reminds me of the Twilight Zone show.
I get my news off of social media, it’s convenient. I typically just browse through feeds of a few personalities I follow to get my fix when I’m interested then move along. I make it a point to ignore the comments section to save both my sanity and time. Though there are exceptions wherein my […]
Hell Divers (Hell Divers Trilogy #1)
I was at the Army MTB trail in Taguig yesterday, testing out my Surly Karate Monkey to see how it handles. On my last loop i tried the red trail and ended up crashing near the end. I thought it was nothing until I padded myself down and felt a notch in my shin. I basically tore […]
Just finished upgrading my Synology DS216+II to 8GB of DDR3L (low voltage) Kingston memory, from the stock 1GB RAM.. This will hopefully improve performance and caching, especially since I can turn off memory compression now and perhaps help with Plex Hardware Transcoding. The disassembly was pretty straight-forward. After removing the drives and sliding the top […]
I signed up for the Plex Pass for $4.99 to have access to the preview release of the Plex Media Server 1.7.x which had support for hardware transcoding for inlet based Synology NAS units. Fortunately my research turned out to be true and it actually worked! My DS216+ii running DSM 6.1 can install Plex 1.5.3, […]
Dawn of Wonder (The Wakening, #1) Another good fantasy read, the only problem being the wait until the next book comes out 🙁
For a high school dropout, things have been working very well for me so far. Got a place I can call my own, a job I actually like and the time and financial freedom to do what I like, and enjoy life. For everything I never had and wished I had helped me know what […]
