Game Beaten*: Final Fantasy VII It's fair to say I haven't really played this game until now. Yeah I played it 10 years ago or whatever, but I didn't really understand it and so I've grown this mindset about it where I completely underestimated it. I cannot
Game Beaten: The Last of Us 2 Despite what you heard and the user score on Metacritic (3.4/10 over 24k reviews at time of writing): it's good. They did take a hell of a risk with this game though, so I can see why some people would just throw it away immediately. But
Game Beaten: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Im on vacation and I wanted to play a game on my PS4. And for some reason I went with the FF7 remake. Followers of this blog and me will know that I played the demo and really liked it, but not much more than that. I wasnt gonna pre-order.
Most Efficient Way to Watch Twitch in macOS I rarely use the Twitch website to watch streams. Instead I use my own little script called whoislive to see who is live, and then I watch it using Streamlink. And then, if I really wanna look at chat, I use IRC, specifically irssi. Here's a quick little
Going from a 2010 Macbook Pro to a 2020 Macbook Pro Ever since Apple started releasing new Macbook Pro's with good keyboards again I've been very interested in buying one.And so I finally did. I cheaped out and went with the cheapest 13" Pro though. I really can't stand Apple's RAM
Getting Excited for PS5 I'm starting to get excited for the PlayStation 5. We still don't know a whole lot about it even though it's meant to be available in less than half a year. Well, we know some stuff, like some of the tech specs, but we
Moved to Linode After hearing about Linode on podcasts, and my old VPS provider pissing me off, I've now moved to Linode! And if you are reading this on May 28th, it means I managed to do so! I really hate re-setting up apache, php, letsencrypt etc, but it had to
Game Beaten: Back to the Future Part III (Sega Genesis) Before you read this, I assume you've watched the AVGN episode on it: Back to the Future ReRevisited. And then I will also recommend you to watch the James & Mike Monday ft. Bootsy episode on it. That's what I knew going into this. I'
Air-cooling Ryzen 3900X in a Louqe Ghost For a couple of weeks now I've ran a Ryzen 3900X in my Louqe Ghost S1 case. 12 cores in a case that small could be considered crazy, but it isn't too bad. I was going to make this post a really long one, similar to
Game Beaten: Half-Life: Alyx I beat the game yesterday and I started writing a really long post about this game, a 6679 characters long post, before I stopped. I just couldn't do it justice. This game is epic and has so many things about it that I wanna talk about, but my
Eternal Doom I've been anticipating Doom Eternal for years now and it's finally here. I was so excited to play it I used a New Zealand VPN to fool Steam into thinking it was the 20th so I could play it one day earlier. And Doom Eternal, or
Games I've Beaten January 2020-March 22 2020 I don't know why I stopped writing "Game Beaten:" posts immediately after beating a game this year, so I'll have to make this post to catch up. * ? January: Uncharted 1 (PS4) * Pretty awful, the sequels are a lot better * 4 January: Modern Warfare (PS4)
Thoughts on Final Fantasy 7 Remake Demo I just finished the FF7 Remake Demo and here are my thoughts. Why do I have thoughts about it? Am I excited about this game? No, not really. FF7 isn't really a game I have played alot - I haven't finished it - so really what
macOS on AMD?!? (Ryzen 3900X Hackintosh Build) What a time to be alive. I never thought it would be possible to run macOS on an AMD based system, but here we are. And perhaps more surprisingly, is that I think this was my smoothest Hackintosh ever.Once I got everything set up exactly, according to this guide,
Disabling Turbo Boost on Intel Laptops Linked Post Marco's post is about Macs specifically but I think this should apply to Windows laptops too. I've been trying this on my ancient 2010 Macbook Pro and it makes it a lot more pleasant to use in my lap. It runs quieter and cooler
RSS Feed Is Proper Now Linked Post I've changed lambblog so that the actual post contents is now in the description field so that it shows up properly in RSS Readers, like NetNewsWire for Mac: Enjoy!
GTA San Andreas Added to GTA Checklists Linked Post I started playing some GTA SA on the old PS2 again and think I might go for 100% so I got the motivation to finally add it. Isn't it beautiful?
Movies I Watched in 2019 Here we are again. I feel like it was just the beginning of 2019 and I started taking notes, thinking it's gonna be forever until I can compile them and publish this. But here we are. 2019 was a great year for movies and me. I watched alot
Red Dead Redemption Hah, I beat it before the decade was over. I am very happy I played RDR2 before playing this. I feel like I wouldn't know what the hell was going on with the story otherwise. It was very exciting to finally get to see Dutch and Javier and
How to Put 2 16:9 1920x1080 Videos Side-by-side in Vegas Every time I reinstall Windows I forget to backup my Vegas settings and presets, and so I have to remember and mess around with how to put 2 videos side-by-side, which is something I do often for comparisons. I use Vegas Pro 15.0 but I assume it's
HL2 EP2 I cannot believe they left it like this. I think it's worse than The Sopranos ending. I mean, I've known about how EP2 ended for years, since the game was new basically. I saw my friend and brother play through it when the game was new
HL2 EP1 I replayed HL2 this weekend, in preparation for Alyx, and figured I should go through the episodes too since I haven't before. I know how EP2 ends but I never played the episodes myself. I remember seeing my friend going through them many years ago on Xbox 360
8700K to 3900X I finally caved and bought Ryzen 3000. Why? Well, frankly, if we wanna cut right through the crap: I like spending money. My i7-8700K was perfectly fine and didn't bottleneck me in anything I actually did. I could sit here and make up arguments for why I needed
Jedi Fallen Order Here's a game, that on paper, should be the best game ever. Yes, Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. One of my absolute favorites from my childhood. I never finished it, but I played it alot and made it far, then made new characters and made it far again. I&
