Happy birthday, Bilbo and Frodo! #HobbitDay

Bilbo and Frodo have lot in common. They are Hobbits, they have more than one breakfast every day if they can, and they were born on the same day and month. 22 September is Bilbo and Frodo’s birthday. At the beginning of The Lord of the Rings, Bilbo is celebrating his 111st birthday, and Frodo is celebrating his 33rd birthday.

This year was the first time I joined in this celebration. I…

Riding to work with a #friend. #friends #friendship #fun #happy

Riding to work with a friend is a lot of fun.  He’s not just a co-worker, but also one of my closest friends.

We talk about everything, from politics to video games, and we like the same type of music (we don’t share the same tastes on all the music, but we do on most of it).

Also, riding with him has been a good support on both work issues and personal issues.  I can rely on him, and he…

#Splatoon 2 Special Demo: an unexpected and well received surprise. #gamer #gaming #inkling #nintendo #nintendoswitch #videogames

Nintendo announced that there will be a temporary demo for Splatoon 2.  This special demo is only available from March 19 to March 25.

I wasn’t initially interested in this game, but, hey, it’s a free demo, so I wanted to check it out.  I was surprised to see how entertaining this game actually is.

At least, I mean that it is fun to play, but the main menu was kind of confusing for me, and…

A gift from #Nintendo for playing #MarioKart 8 Deluxe. #gamer #games #gaming #nintendoswitch #supermario #videogames

It seems that I’m playing too much of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Nintendo decided to give me a wallpaper.  Isn’t it cool?

The wallpaper is very similar to the game’s packaging artwork.  It is in HD resolution, it is official, and it was a gift from Nintendo.  I even took it with me to use it in my computer at work.

I’m still many hours away from get three starts in all 200cc cups, but I also…

Of sex, the human brain, and male friends. #brain #fetish #fetishism #friend #friends #friendship #fun #happy #love #motivation

Did you know that the sensory regions in the brain for the feet and genitals lie next to each other?

There’s some weird porn out there.  And that’s it.  O, and people have fetishisms.

I don’t want to talk much about this topic, but when you are a male, and you have male friends, you will meet a random porn video in your inbox titled ‘check this out’.  You open it because, hey, whosent it is…

You can get their titles, one by one, defeating them with only the same Pokémon they are training.  Once you get at least six titles, you will become a Battle Master.  Defeating all of them will give you the ultimate title…

How to install the #Intel QSFP+ Configuration Utility for #Linux. #ethernet #internet #network #networking #technology #tech

Installing the Intel QSFP+ Configuration Utility for Linux fails with an error saying that the command is not found.

After unzipping the file, change the installer permissions so it can regarded by the system as an executable file.  This can be done in terminal with this command: # chmod 770 qcu64e

This happens because for security reason, most Linux distributions disable executable…

The story of a broken #Frenchpress. #coffee #coffeetime #coffeelover

A good friend and I brew coffee at work using a French press.  There is no better way to drink coffee.

It is highly practical for us.  Sometimes, I just come to work a little earlier to brew coffee for the both of us.

Sadly, a few days ago I accidentally broke our French press, so I had to buy a new one.  These were disastrous days for us, until almost a week later I brought our shinning,…

#Son of a #baker. #bakery #bestson

The parents of a friend of mine own a bakery.  They also live in there, including himself.

At work, he would bring pastries to sell.  Some of the most common pastries he brings over are baked croissants and empanadas.  Delicious, I may add.

I highly respect my friend and his parents’ bakery.  His dad even named their bakery after him.  It turns out that at some point his parents took out a…
