Our heroes are back in the catacombs, but this time with Illmeth and Constable Harby. Thankfully, this time they ran into their old friends who were mysteriously missing last time… Faetra, Cerys, and Kink have reappeared, and are ready to fight and save the world from earthquakes! Also, some new random sorceror has appeared named Pyre… and… he’s also ready to fight and save the world from earthquakes! I think…
Windows 10, And My Insecurity
Did you all hear about the free Windows 10 upgrade? Windows 10 has so many new features, and better ways of doing things…
They even have this country’s safety in mind by tying everything you do to a Microsoft account that they can use to log chat messages, voice chats (voice recognition), video chats (facial recognition), emails, and other things that make up your digital footprint (it even has a built-in keylogger). Their EULA makes reference to the fact that they’ll share this information with people if they feel that your actions are dangerous.
Fighting Dice – A Polyhedral Dice Game By Me
In an effort to explain the significance of the different polyhedral dice, I came up with a game anyone can play with a simple set of 7 polyhedral dice.
D&D Session 3 - He's Guilty... Just Take My Word For It
Our heroes dropped into the pit with a new set of catacombs, and were ready to begin adventuring. Unfortunately, some rocks fell or something, and the party was split in two! Cerys, Faetra, and Kink were nowhere to be seen, but perhaps they’d show up later. Maybe they weren’t feeling well, or were at the beach… who knows.
Unlimited Wireless – No Verizon, You're Wrong
I saw a post from Verizon about why unlimited data is a bad thing.
D&D Session 2 - Oooh, Shiny
When we last left our heroes, they were chasing after some little prick necromancer who roleplays with dead bodies and keeps sending zombies at everyone to kill them.
D&D Session 1 - The Heroes Embark
We begin our adventure in the town of Red Larch, in the country of Waterdeep.
Our heroes are found, where else, in a tavern. This tavern goes by the name of the Swinging Sword (ladies’ nights on Tuesdays, and you’ll see where it got its name when their famous dancer, “Captain Helicopter”, shows up for the entertainment).
The story begins as the bard known as Lucas begins to start an awesome lute solo, but plucks the wrong string (he really needs to learn to stop huffing moon dust before a performance). This sounds the warning signs of a coming cataclysm: earthquakes.
Head 'Re-bel' – A Critical Look
Hello and welcome back to another installment of “A Critical Look”. Today I’d like to look at a song by Brian ‘Head’ Welch off his solo album “Save Me From Myself”. Warning, this song contains religious undertones that some might not agree with. I’m looking objectively at the song and its meaning, and am not in any way telling anyone what to believe in. This is just my interpretation of what the song is trying to say.
Understanding guitars, and guitar parts
I have been thinking about getting an 8-string guitar for recording nu metal/alternative metal, and I really like that djent sound. My current guitar is an Ibanez K7. I chose that guitar because I love Korn’s sound, so I figured buying their signature brand would allow me to play music I liked (I was right). But honestly, I have no idea what the hell I bought… Pickups, string gauges, body, frets… It all came with the guitar, and I don’t have a clue what just happened. I just threw money at a proven guitar that would give me what I wanted, and I’m kicking myself for not researching this stuff… I always research what I want to see if I can find a better deal.
Five Finger Death Punch 'Coming Down' – A Critical Look
Welcome to another installment of “A Critical Look”. I figured I’d done Korn enough, and it was time to venture out a bit into other bands. This song is by a band called Five Finger Death Punch, a band most noted for giving off the image of “holy shit run, they’ll beat me to a pulp!”
I didn’t think much of this song when I’d heard it off the album, but after seeing the video, I was shocked. I can’t even listen to this song now, because every time I get teary-eyed.
