Long Weekend of Geek-ery
Sunday, January 27th, 2008The above is Liam’s new Garry’s Mod Server (THEGRID) in the process of being re-animated. New 350Gb PATA drive into the old Dell 5150. PATA is finicky: This master/slave mode plus correct ribbon cables makes the process harder than you would think. Windows XP SP2, Remote Desktop and we are away.
Also, Kudos to Microsoft Activation support. […]

Tim, an old friend whom I owe much, a key shareholder in NextByte sold out […]
1 Million Geek March
Monday, July 2nd, 2007What is an Geek? Is Geek a pejorative term?
In the UK, being a trainspotter or anorak is definitely pejorative for those outside the craze. Duncan Riley uses the marketing term Prosumer (professional consumer).
If anyone comes up to me and calls me a Geek, I am proud. Having spent the last year breaking off the shackles of […]

Monday, June 4th, 2007I’ve had a long, long love with Lego. As a Geek, this love is not unique.
Thankfully, most of my Lego survived my childhood and I passed the thousands of well-worn, well-loved bricks to Liam. Each brick had a second life with Liam as he build planes, trains and more planes.
In a rush of blood to […]
