This RAX40 Netgear Nighthawk Router Review was not sponsored. That said I also did not pay full price for this router so that may actually be why I am happy with it. I bought it open box, I had a hunch someone returned this bad boy without giving it a fair shake. I now know […]

Indiegogo project goes live
Our indiegogo project goes live today! In the recent months I have been working tirelessly out of my home studio to finish this little trailer and today our Indiegogo project goes live. I helped shoot this with a 5 man crew as sound and when an actor didn’t show up for his role ended up […]

Fixing a Raspberry Pi SD card that won’t boot
I have had a system that would not respond countless times with a Raspberry Pi when I was trying to roll my own. I have had also a few times where I just unplugged a system by accident futzing with something adjacent to it. There have been times when I would reinstall from scratch again. […]
Mining bitcoins with p2pool
Here is my experience and testimonial with mining bitcoins with p2pool, I don’t know all that much about it’s inner workings but I assume that I have worked out a somewhat reasonable formula for success. You need to have a few things in line for this to be a profitable venture guaranteed. First off is […]
Quadro FX 4800 teardown
Recently I had been having issues with heat and intermittent freezing of my Hackintosh. These crashes always happened during graphical processes like watching Netflix, or editing sound and it started getting out of hand as the temperature outside was rising. I figured I was experiencing that which I had been seeing at work with a […]
Mining with P2Pool in the wake of the 2015 hard fork
Bitcoin is a digital currency that you have probably heard of before. It is ubiquitous in only the nerdiest of places so far. It also has trenchant links with the black market that can hike it’s value, which is something I have reasoned as more or less, why the value is currently stable; solely because of the black markets’ influence on fluidity. In light of the new hard fork I think p2pool will be a great way for DIYers to get some real coins, with Antminers coming down in cost. Now don’t get me wrong, I was pretty stressed out about buying my first bitcoin miner. I have student debts and I didn’t want to end up spending money on a box that eats power, spews heat, and noise but I was pretty sure I had it all figured out.
Using a VPN Service
VPN Servers are available now at as very reasonable rate these days with some plans coming in at sixty dollars or so a year. That’s really cheap as chips when you realize what is at stake. With all the revelations in the past few years of what internet privacy is like these days it’s easy […]
Using DDNS on an Asus router
DDNS or Dynamic Domain Name Service is a great tool for getting access to your home or small-business network from abroad. First, allow me to explain what the function of DNS. When you type myfavouritesite.com into a browser you are actually using a DNS address. A Domain Name Server translates that name to an IP […]
Setting up bandwidth tracking on tomato USB
Tracking the data you are using day to day is way better than letting your ISP do it for you. Why would you want to trust the people who will make money off you to let you know your usage? You have no point of reference to argue if your being taken advantage of! I […]
