HTTPS

I finally got HTTPS running on my website, thanks to Let's Encrypt. I've wanted to use their service months ago or whenever it was first opened up for use, but I couldn't get it running on my old VPS, because of many reasons probably.

Why I Copied 16 TB of Data This Weekend

Here's what happened: I didn't wanna think about my Synology anymore. Up until now the Synology box contained both Media and a bunch of photos of family. I didn't wanna think about the users photos and such any more. I want that to handle

New VPS

Update a few hours later:I think everything is done now, as far as this website goes atleast. I still have some other pages to set up, but my blog seems to be functioning 100%. I have gotten a new VPS so lambdan.se might be shaky while I set

rMBP Thoughts

Since I posted some thoughts about that Razer laptop yesterday (well, last night) I guess I should do some thoughts on the christmas gift I got for myself aswell. Simply put, this is an amazing laptop. And that's what you should expect when you pay a lot of

Thoughts on Razers new laptop with three monitors

In case you haven't seen it: https://www.engadget.com/2017/01/05/razer-built-a-laptop-with-three-screens-because-why-not/ * I am much more impressed by this kind of innovation than anything Apple has done recently * Each screen is 4K and has GSync. Ridiculous. * I don't want one myself. At that weight

Games I Beat In 2016 (and GOTY 2016)

Pretty damn sure I won't beat any more games this year unless a miracle happens. I have really no interest in casually playing video games right now. I didn't beat a ton of games in 2016. I felt like I did, but I really didn'

Carrie Fisher Died

News just broke and for some reason I am very bummed about it. A couple of days ago, when she had a heart attack and was later reported to be "stable" I tweeted out a genuine phew. I don't know why I care really. I didn&

I Finally Have It

Merry Christmas everyone who celebrates it today (the 24th.) I got my own gift, from myself, today and I am very happy that I finally have one. A 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro. This is a computer that I've been looking at for year, but never being practical for

Personal Notes on Friends & All of its Episodes

This right here should be the craziest post on this blog. Ever. I can't think of anything that could top it. I am gonna talk about Friends, the 1994 TV show. I know I have already talked a lot about it. On my blog there have been several

What do I do now?

I just finished rewatching Friends. Again. For like the 4th time. And there's always this post-series depression I get: what the hell do I do now? For weeks now I've just been able to turn on the TV and immediately know what I'm gonna

Streaming with OBS and Elgato HD60 S from macOS without Window Capturing

Update 14 Jun 2017: I've had alot of issues with this method so just don't do it. If you have a Avermedia capture card though, I might recommend doing this: 720p60 streaming with AverMedia Capture Card and OBS Studio on Mac Post updated Dec 24th: update

Late Nights and Sitcom Intro's

You're tired. You wanna sleep. But you wanna watch some sitcoms before you do to completely dumb down your brain. Here are the best sitcoms, rated entirely by their intro. Keep in mind that I haven't seen every sitcom in the world so I haven'

Super Mario Run - First Impressions

original title was review but i realized i have way more thoughts about this game that i need to write down for a review I played it for an hour, just rushing through the levels (Tour mode or whatever it's officially called), like I always do with Mario

My Top 5 Game Consoles

With the Nintendo Switch coming out, and me being mostly a console gamer nowadays, I started thinking about my Top 5 Game Consoles, and what makes them that. I quickly came to a conclusion: I have to make two separate Top 5 lists. Top 5 Consoles for a Deserted Island

My XRGB-mini Settings

Season 7, Episode 13

* In retrospect I kinda wish I would've gotten a jet black model instead of the regular black, just because I would like to see how scratched it would end up looking like after being at work with me. On the other hand, I don't need more

The New Plex Server

Sorry, this is kind of a lame post, but I feel like writing something because I'm kinda bored this weekend. I didn't get my iPhone 7 so I can't play with that, and I can't figure out a good place to put

NESRGB

Finally got my NES, well AV Famicom actually, RGB modded using the NESRGB chip. Hard to believe this screenshot is not from an emulator Getting this done was honestly not that hard. First I ordered the chip from Tim's own webshop: http://etim.net.au/shop/shop.php

encode_youtube.bat

This post was last updated: 2 Sep 2016 17:53 Finally decided to write a script that will make my YouTube encoding easier. Features * Upscales SD (less than 720p) video to 720p30 or 720p60 (both 4:3 and 16:9) to take advantage of YouTube 60fps * Encodes HD video such

Cheap RGB Cable vs More Expensive RGB Cable

Linked Post Again, so I remember where I put it.Trying to motivate myself to buy another expensive one. I have one for my N64 but I want another one so I don't have to swap with the SNES. I would buy from http://retrogamingcables.co.uk/ (not

SC-512 Input Delay: Part 2

I decided to measure input delay again. This time I could use my Scart Splitter without the Sync Strike complaining (I had to use the external PSU for it) and then I could just take my iPhone's 240 fps camera and record both screens and then just take

Genesis Composite/Svideo/RGB Comparison

Linked Post Posting here so I remember where I put it.

Preliminary SC-512 Input Lag Testing

Before we begin, the capture card I have is the Startech PEXHDCAP60L, but I call it SC-512, as that is shorter and sweeter and it is the same card as the Micomsoft SC-512, but without HDMI passthrough. This is the first blog post regarding the SC-512. This is a capture

Everdrive 64 and Speedrunning

I did some timing and framecounts to see how much slower/faster using an Everdrive 64 (v3) compared to real cartridge is when speedrunning. The Everdrive 64 is different from the other Everdrives in that it cannot reset to game, it only resets to menu. I'm not sure

Post from Windows 3.1

This is something I thought I would never do. Well I don't think I can publish it from here, but atleast I can write the plain text files.If I found a sftp client or a ssh client I could publish it from here. Taking a screenshot of
