Comcast can’t keep it up? I’ll let them know about it

So over the last few months my internet service with Comcast has been less than stellar. My connection would drop out at random times throughout the day, on some days I wouldn’t stay connected for more than 20 or so minutes at a time. At first, I was hoping that it was a random issue …

Setting up Comchap’s Comcut with ComSkip, ffmpeg, and HandbrakeCLI

I’ve been running Plex for years now and with their addition of Plex DVR last year I started recording many of the television shows I’d been acquiring other ways before. It saves on bandwidth, it saves on time spent searching for the right quality from a trusted group, but what it doesn’t save on is …

Some things new, some things old

So, yeah, i know.. it’s been a while. It’s been a combination of things that have kept me from posting anything; mainly laziness i think. But i have my laptop at work today, and it’s lunch time, so i figured.. why the hell not? It’s about f-ing time. //Work First up is work. Things have …

Week One Complete!

I’ve finished my first week at my new job. It’s a weird sensation. I feel like I’ve been there for quite a while already, but that time has gone by really fast. Maybe it has to do with the fact that i was totally sick for about half the week? The first three days were …
