Trippy Debian + Mac Mini

Don’t ask. I still don’t know why.

iTunes shared on bootcamp

Matt — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 07:02:55 +0000

You would have thought Apple would give you some way of sharing your iTunes library easily between Mac and Windows… or was that me being a bit optimistic there. Anyway, quick search on the internet to see if people had ways …

Christmas 2011

Matt — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 13:13:29 +0000

Heh, it’s been a while since I’ve used my blog, and for once this isn’t an angered filled rant. Just summing up what I did over Christmas this year. Not the most interesting thing ever to happen, but still different …

Home networking done properly (I hope)

Matt — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 00:41:03 +0000

Today I’ve finished installing a 20m networking cable in my flat. Why, I hear you ask? Well, in short, my desktop is in the far corner of my room. Even though we have a wireless N router, and distance is …

TESCO + Recycling, it’s going backwards a bit.

Matt — Tue, 09 Aug 2011 21:16:20 +0000

Before I go any further, this is not me complaining about my job in any way. I don’t mind the job(s) that I do, and this post is not me having a go at the company or my respective stores, …

New dedicated server

Somewhat overdue upgrade, but I’ve finally had the time and the will to upgrade from my slowing AMD Sempron to the new dedicated server. Specs are an Intel i5 4×2.66Ghz, 16GB (yes) of RAM, 2TB of hard drive space, 100mbps …

Another theme.. I just can never decide can I!

Matt — Sun, 19 Jun 2011 19:58:33 +0000

Title’s self explanatory. The end. Though I’ve done a little more than put a new theme on. I’ve merged my personal site with my blog. Makes more sense.

There’s a first for everything…

This morning, I set myself the task of putting up the new Hub Radio website. Not as simple as take old one down, and put new one up I assure you. Process was involving installing new plugins, copying settings from …

Fun with Kinect for XBOX 360

Matt — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 00:28:02 +0000

Been having (alcohol-fueled) fun with Kinect for the XBOX 360. Pretty damn good. Yesterday me, Rob, James and Simon played Kinect Adventures, had some fun with that before getting exhausted and moving to CoD Black Ops. Tonight it was Kinect …

Road Rage

Matt — Thu, 28 Apr 2011 16:07:30 +0000

Probably not a good day for me to be driving. Here’s what’s got me pretty hot headed today. To start, I went to Emerson’s Green retail park to get some stuff from Lidl and Argos. Now I had legitimately parked …
