It's not much, but to counter this melancholy vibe I wanted to share that Eric talked with Logitech and they are sending me their new Adaptive Gaming Kit . So, I'm coming out of retirement to write up a review of that which will also be part six of my custom controller series. I may be able to get t...
Just wanted to chime in a say, yeah, that's about right. That's why I always volunteered, to help the site and the community. If I'd taken money for my reviews, it would have just been depressing. Appreciation from gerbils is priceless, though.
If folks still following this thread want to PM me their email address, I can invite them to the Slack channel a few of us have been hanging out in. No lookie-loos, please.
Yeah, sorry guys, but this is 99.9% not going to happen. Even if everything was rosy with TR and motivation wasn't an issue, I would still be struggling to find the time. The little preview I posted with simple performance metrics for the drives is all I have to offer.
I wasn't very invested in my account, nothing since the first part of SC2, but yeah, I canned my account a couple days ago. Just pathetic. The cancellation process is crap too, a photo ID, really? Screw you guys.
Thanks drfish. Hiatus hints temporary. Something a-brewing? I'm not sure yet, nothing brewing, this is 100% my own call. As mentioned previously, I'm a bit burned out and on top of that there's been less free time recently. So, Shortbread was an easy thing to cut. I'm still debating if I want to do...
Man, not having "hot threads" means missing threads like this, I guess. Anyway, the cats were just some purrfectly harmless fun while Eric was on vacation.
Vivid! What critters are planned? Well, on Saturday I got four black mollies to put in there (they are my wife's favorite fish). One male lyretail and and normal three females. They get the tank for themselves for about a month, then I'll be trying to bring home a baby musk turtle from the NARBC sh...
My surprise BBQ gift is coming along nicely... http://dr_fish.speedymail.org/techreport/fish/elon_top.jpg http://dr_fish.speedymail.org/techreport/fish/elon_front.jpg http://dr_fish.speedymail.org/techreport/fish/elon_iso.jpg I'm going to harvest more pothos vines from our "mother plant" a...
Tony is around, but I don't think he has any hardware to play with. The BBQ was a nice boost to morale/source of motivation, but it's wearing off. The truth is a lot of the people at the BBQ are BBQ regulars more than TR regulars at this point, and have been for some time. Also, another month has pa...
At this point, if Zak's reviews weren't still the best of their kind on the internet, I'd drop the front page entirely. I do appreciate that Eric and drfish are keeping the lights on, but that kind of post has been more about the community than anything else for a long time, and I can't be bothered...
I've heard this straight from Adam: YouTube is where PC hardware vendors spend their ad budgets. AdSense is one thing, but that's not where the real money is. You need contracts with the big vendors and they only want to spend money on YouTube.
...if you don't have a willpower or enthusiasm to keep improving your content and finding more unique content - then perhaps it is better to do what HardOCP owner did, just close down your site instead of letting someone else take over it. Not saying that this is the only right option but this is s...
Alton Brown is transcendent, not just as a chef but as a human. You name your cat Morimoto for fun, you change your son's name to Alton if he can prove himself worthy.
It's incredible and it'll be part of my BBQ wrap-up post. You guys are so awesome. Once Wren is up from her nap we're going to head over to Blue Fish Aquarium for some inspiration. It might even been something I turn into a front page series instead of hiding it in the forums, we'll see, the plan is...
