Latest Hak5 is up, and I am in it.

Well as I said, I was going to be in an episode of Hak5, and I am. Darren and I did a little round table chat regarding Android, rooting the HTC Desire, and running Android apps on your computer. Have to say I am stoked at seeing it, and I’d like to thank Darren for giving me the chance to come on and do a segment, and hopefully if he liked it I will get to to do more in the future, as I’ve got the bug. I want to do more.

For the episode I’m in it’s Season 7, episode 23.

Hak5 coming up.

So I’m going to be recording a segment for Hak5 about rooting the HTC Desire I’ve already for almost it entirely worked out.

The all clear

So today I heard back from my oncologist. I don’t have colon cancer!

Flight Sims

Yes, flight sims. Rather geeky/nerdy for a lot of people, but I happen to love them. From the free one Orbiter, to the rediculously expensive X-Plane, with controllers ranging from a simple joystick to full on Saitek equipment with control panels, rudder pedals and all the rest of it.

Why do I love flight sims? Controlling a plane, helicopter, spaceship/whatever I just enjoy, and some of the more advanced ones, if you don’t get it right, game over. Flight Sims can be very arcade, or very very realisic (ie bloody hard).

So I’ll get a shot up at some stage of my setup, it’s not the most spectacular one, but it’s rather good.

Little updates

So things are working pretty well. Long day in work, signed some legal documents with regards to Hugh moving in and becoming my tennant. It’s nice to have another person in our home. Helps out with the cost of things, and he’s a fellow gamer, it’s all good.

A more fitting introduction.

Well hello there. I’m Rkiver, or Robb as known to immediate friends and family. I’m a bloke from Ireland approaching 30 years old, and I’ve decided to keep a wordpress blog for no other reason then I can, and it is always handy to know how to manipulate stuff such as this.

I’m a fan of technology in all it’s miriad of ways, though honestly the iPhone 4 hype bores me as the phone itself has been an epic failure so far. Nice one Apple. I’m currently learning how to code Android as my phone is a HTC one and uses Android.

I live in Dublin, rather like the area I am in, am happily married for 3 years now, and have a lodger moving into our spare room.

So that’s about it really, oh and a random picture of the wife and I just because I can.

Yes, we like dressing up.
