And by the way…

And by the way, I’m properly back this time. For the privileged few who fairly regularly read this blog, I’ll be posting much more often now that I’ve sorted out some other things.

Enjoy!

Happy Orangeman’s Day to you…

At some point in their lives, people are going to check up on what significant events have happened on that day. The place of choice for doing this appears to be either Wikipedia, Google or a newspaper. However, almost every single other day, other than my birthday (which coincidentally is today), something of worldwide significance and note occurred.

The forgotten republic

I have been looking around the internet lately, and I have come across a fascinating topic: micronations. Essentially, micronations are very small nations that are not recognised by any other nation-state, but still operate as separate countries, and I found one right here in Australia!

Complex simplicity

In order to connect two computers, I spent the good part of one and a half hours attempting this theoretically simple task. I unfortunately and eventually attempted to do this through a router (do not ask why) and after I had untangled myself from the multitude of cords, I paused to think: how can it be so difficult just to connect two computers?

Chopping sticks

It often strikes me as amazing that a country as innovative and inventive as China, can invent such amazing things long before the rest of the world, such as fireworks, gunpowder, etc., but have not yet realised that two wooden sticks is not the best way to eat food!
