  • Cloud vs Traditional Data Center vs Hosted Service vs Indoor Box

    Recently, I ran across an article on LinkedIn discussing how one company decided to switch from the cloud back to an in house data center. The person writing it mostly talked about cost savings as the major win but didn’t necessarily go into detail about what a lot of the move entailed. As someone who…

  • YouTube Is The Next Dead Tech in Social Media

    With YouTube now disallowing AdBlockers, I predict in about a year’s time, YouTube will lose a huge amount of money and users. More than that, most users will scramble to either find a new platform or resort back to digital piracy. What’s needed in the interim to shock the powers-that-be over at YouTube is a…

  • Diablo 3: Altar of Rites Thoughts

    While Season 30 is said to be the end of seasonal development, the one positive that the developers have mentioned is the incorporation of the Altar of Rites as a permanent feature moving forward. It was not included in Season 29 as people theorize that it’s being adjusted. I’m guessing that the adjustment is to…

  • Diablo 4: Contender for Worst Game of All Time

    Let me preface that this is a pure opinion piece based on growing frustration and what I feel was a waste of a good $70 that could’ve gone to various meals at Del Taco. Yes, that’s how angry I’ve become over Diablo 4. I feel like I’ve wasted my time, energy and resources on a…

  • Diablo 4: New Strategy For Low Level Character Entering Torment/World Tier 4

    I decided to try a Helltide earlier in Torment/World Tier 4 on my rogue. With only some Ancestral items and at level 67, I found myself to be very squishy and not doing a lot of damage. So I decided to re-think how I could handle my situation as I’m pretty jammed in the transition…

  • Diablo 4: World Tier 4/Torment Achieved

    I’ve got to be honest here and say that this really isn’t a true “achievement” for me as I had my friends carry me through the capstone dungeon to get into World Tier 4. What I ended up doing was originally have my friends carry my Druid into World Tier 3 but right after push…

  • Diablo 4: The Molasses Grind

    While we still are not in seasons, I want to talk about the current grind and the state of the game. I’ve lost track of how much time I’ve spent on this game but I would say that the last week or so, I’ve been pushing harder just in terms of the number of hours…

  • Diablo 4: Current Progress

    With the 3 day weekend (and what a short weekend this has been), I pretty much was hitting Diablo 4 really hard. Last week, there were a few days that I missed just because of work. However, I decided to vegetate and just enjoy my weekend for once. So with that, I tried to push…

  • More Articles Discrediting Remote Work

    More and more I’m finding companies trying to discredit the idea of remote work. A lot of times I’ll see high level positions like CEOs, HR, people managers who are the most vocal about the return to the office. What’s really missing about these complaints are concrete evidence that talks about the loss of so-called…

  • Clash of Clans and Boom Beach Progression

    Since I bought the Gold Season Pass, I figured I might as well try to get in as much progression as possible in Clash of Clans. The main two things I’ve been focused on are pushing my main account to TH14, which is quite close to being ready, and my main TH11 to TH12, which…
