October always seems to go fast – far quicker than any other month. Next thing you know, bam! It’s November, the beginning of the dreaded “holiday season.” Thankfully, I won’t have to deal with the holiday season as directly as I used to, which hopefully will allow me more time to cover things I haven’t …

Something Isn’t Quite Right Around Here – An Update
So, I’m certain some regular readers will notice something is a little off about the site. It’s been that way for a while, actually, ever since upgrading to Graphene 2 – some elements of the site haven’t rendered correctly, and it’s honestly caused more trouble than you can imagine. So, to make a very long …

I Ain’t Dead Yet – An Update
The past 2 days have been quite inactive for a good reason – I’ve been quite ill! I don’t say this to alarm anyone, but for the sake of clarity and giving readers a slice into my life. This is a personal website, right? To keep a long story short, from early Thursday until late …

2 Weeks With The SNES Classic Edition
As the title suggest, I’ve had the SNES Classic Edition for about 2 weeks. That’s been enough time, along with my work schedule and Xadara stuff, to manage to complete everything on Super Mario World and to play all the way through Earthbound. Sure, I’ve touched on a few things – unlocked Star Fox 2 …

The Graphene Theme 2.0 Killed My Website!
Seems like every few months I have something happen with this site that makes me have to either nuke a feature, or go into some kind of emergency “find an old version and throw it on the server” moment. Previously, an update to my podcast management software of choice wound up no longer working with …

How Terrible Fans Ruined Space For Me
Ever since I was a child, I absolute adored space, both the idea of the place, the planets, moons, stars, and other things out there, and the exploration of it – rockets, missiles, men on the Moon, I couldn’t get enough of it! I’ve been learning what I can about these subjects for literally as …

What’s Coming For October 2017 on Xadara
Well, it’s been a few days since the last posts here. Maybe I needed another break, who knows. Regardless, a new month means new things, new chances to share my thoughts on, well, most anything. October is one of my favorite months of the year – hell, it might well be the month I like …

We Have Burnout – Hostility In The Space And Rocketry Online Community
Cutting straight to the point, I’m somewhat burnt out right now – namely, with regards to SpaceX, space subjects in general, and a few other things. Reading comment after comment on the SpaceX front has certainly been a chore, having to see them mentioned in every single space related subject ever is itself quite annoying, …

One Year Ago I Discovered The Cult Of SpaceX
If you had asked my opinion of SpaceX on Septmeber 26th, 2016, I would have told you that I loved them, and that I was excited and happy to see posts relating to their projects, launches, and the like. If you ask me today, I’ll tell you I still like the company, and some of …

How To Survive The Apocalypse Without Really Trying
In case you missed it, Saturday, September 23rd was the end of the world! Not that you could tell by the fact that not a single thing has changed at all. Oh, wait, I’m sorry, it looks like the nut job who predicted doomsday has gone back on it, instead now saying that Saturday was …

The Internet Doesn’t Understand The Toys-R-Us Bankruptcy
A few days ago, it was announced that Toys R Us was filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The internet flipped their shit over it. Within an hour of the announcement, memes already started flooding twitter and facebook saying “RIP Toys R US”, “RIP Geoffrey” and general reactions of “oh no it’s closing” mostly from people …

Farewell, Cassini…
At the time of this articles publication, the Cassini spacecraft should no longer exist – at this point in time it should have vaporized in the atmosphere of Saturn, the planet it was built to study and always destined to be a part of. This is happening quite early in my time zone – a …

I Found A 3DO Console While Thrifting
As long term readers are aware, one of my hobbies is hitting thrift stores, antique malls, and other such places and seeing what all I can find that may be of use, interesting, or otherwise something I’d want. The past few months have been somewhat dry beyond the usual odds and ends, but back on …

The Reality Of That One September Morning
If there is one thing that I just can’t stand, it’s conspiracy theories. More over, conspiracy theories relating to a certain event 16 years ago today; an event that is better documented than most anything that had happened before, or in many cases, since then. September 11th, 2001. Oh yes, for pretty much every year …

SNES Classic Pre-Orders Are Being Mysteriously Cancelled
In another peculiar bit of SNES Classic Edition news, apparently pre-orders are getting cancelled again. This time, however, these are legitimate pre-orders and not the obviously premature ones that Walmart had opened up a few months ago. Originally I was made aware of the fact that pre-orders from Hawaii were getting cancelled at oddly high …
