STEAM – Remote downloads

May 17th, 2012 No comments

I was wondering how long it would take for STEAM to allow people to queue up downloads on their remote PC by purchasing the game through the store. As of today it is officially out of beta and gamers can now take advantage of buying a game at work and having it ready for them when they get home :)

Windows Mouse Gives Focus

May 10th, 2012 No comments

I missed the part where Windows integrated the mouse over to give focus to a window function into the Control Panel… Anyways, I have just grown to love it as a sysadmin of many a linux dists.

Control Panel\Ease of Access\Ease of Access Center\Make the mouse easier to use

I obviously just play games too much on my Win7 desktop and therefor never explore the operating system. It’s only really good for one thing in my opinion anyway!

Assault Touch-Controlled Helecopter

January 23rd, 2012 1 comment

Most of my good friends are RC nuts.. garages full of half built planes, cars, choppers or boats and enough batteries to power a small suburb. Myself, I never really got into it. However, something like this could be kind of fun or maybe I just want it for the novelty factor and to boast a new “look what I can do on Android” coolism.

Coming soon….

Jet suit

December 1st, 2011 No comments

I have always enjoyed watching guys base jump off mountains in wingsuits with GoCam’s attached, the footage is amazing and I can only imagine the rush they must get with descent. I have never really thought about the possibilities of flying next to a jet in a human jet suit though….

Read the article.

packetaddict

November 29th, 2011 1 comment

I recently had to renew packetaddict.com, mainly because I have so much infrastructure that is tied into the domain that it just couldn’t be avoided. Whilst doing this though I really began to feel guilty about the lack of effort I put into the website these days. So, in an effort to remove some of that guilt I will be doing some work on the site between now and Xmas to try and bring it up to speed ready for a busy 2012 blogging.

Watch this space…
