Background

So my background in tech has always been hardware, I have been building PC’s for 15 years and I have been a tech enthusiast for even longer. This blog is basically for me to chronicle my misadventures into expanding my horizons from where I am at the moment with a very limited knowledge of software and non desktop architecture. Over the years I have had several non tech related misadventures. A couple of friends and I have a bad habit of getting bored and doing something dangerous and stupid. Some examples of this are the single cycle pulse jet*, an aluminium smelting furnace, a cardboard trebuchet and a tabletop gaming table. Each of these will get their own post as the thought process behind them and the process of building them is each unique and stupid in their own way.

I have several tech projects planned over the next year they include but are not limited to:

A home server

Upgrading my current gaming desktop to a more modern system

re-purposing my current gaming system for my partner to game on

Building a water cooled PC for my partner to game on whilst she is in america, in america!

Finally finding a use for my Rasperry Pi that I have had for ages

So over the next little while I will throw at the internet tales from my history, plans that I have and experiences that I have had whilst trying to learn something new.
