I’ve bought my fourth pair of headphones today. Not because my old ones broke, but because I was fed up switching back and forth between my FireTV and my smartphone. And much like the missing absolute volume limit missing in any parental control panel, it’s not a technical issue. It’s simply that nobody is including … Continue reading Rant: Where are my Bluetooth headphones with input switch
Cross-posted on the RPCS3 forums.

This has actually lead to all kinds of strange tools, but one of the most effective is also one of the simplest. A tiny little C# program which polls the volume of our … Continue reading Simple tools are sometimes the most useful

The client is the only one who knows the Private Key and if somebody is in a group, … Continue reading I love Passbolt

JSShell in particular has been invaluable in automating … Continue reading Node-SQLite-NoDep : SQLite for node.js…
Just had a common issue this morning that would usually require installing an application, but is very easy to solve using the batch file (GIST) from Thursday’s post: Changing the resolution from a batch file.
