Linux Journeys 4 – Preparing for Linux

Welcome back! This series is primarily focused on the Linux version (distro) called Pop!_OS which is developed by System76, but that does not mean other corners of the Linux world will not be addressed. The Old Toshiba No further issues have been observed with the old Toshiba laptop I installed Pop!_OS onto. If you don’t know, the previous installation was set up with disk encryption and the PC…

Profile of an Au Ra.

I am Au Ra of the Xaela from the tribe of Kha. My people come from Othard. My name is Abaka Kha. The Kha are known for intermingling with outside races. This was the seed that lead me beyond my home. Much time has passed, but I have since come to the lands under Gridania. I was immediately taken by its beauty and its life. I decided to join them, starting my journey as an adventurer. I chose to…

A New Venture – Something New and Old

This site has always been about gaming, science, and technology. Gaming on a Chromebook was a mixture of both gaming and technology. Of course, game reviews are games and then there’s the science. There have not been a lot of hardcore science articles to be found here but it is also probably the most general category I would write on in this blog. Nevertheless, these make up the smallest number…

Linux Journeys 3 – Travel, Encrypted, and Tails

Welcome back! Diving into the world of Linux can seem daunting when you look at that world as a whole and see the many versions of Linux that exist. This series is primarily focused on the Linux version (distro) called Pop!_OS which is developed by System76, but that does not mean other corners of the Linux world will not be addressed. Updates and Travel The last few months have been rather…

Gaming on a Chromebook #109 – Google Play Store

  Install It can be easy to forget that this Android app at one time was not on the Chromebook by default. It became installable once ChromeOS became compatible with Android apps. Since then, it has become a default application–no longer requiring you to go to the website and download from there first. Gameplay The usability of this app has changed since its introduction to ChromeOS. Many of…

Gaming on a Chromebook #106 – Dungeon & Heroes and Magic: the Gathering Arena

Install First, Dungeon & Heroes This 3D RPG is made by DroidHen, is rated T for Teen (Violence, Blood, User Interactions), and is free to play (F2P). It installed without issue onto my Chromebook. However, upon launching it, it simply locks itself to the loading screen and goes nowhere. Magic: the Gathering Arena This virtual card game is based on the real-life physical card game and is…

YouTube Ads on Smartphone . . .

Ever notice a difference between the amount of ads on YouTube when viewing on a computer versus a smartphone?

I am not talking about the type of ads. It is common knowledge that Google’s algorithm tailors ads so it makes sense that if you are on an Android phone it will try to push Android apps as part of the ads to you. I am talking about only the number of ads.

Typically when you make a…

Upon clicking on Stories above in the top/side navigation on this site, you get a layout of the main series of stories written and connected to this site.

There is now a section below these listing articles connected to writing as well for your reference.

It is a simple list. To get there, simply click on the “Stories” in the navigation to get to the main page and you’ll find each of the…

This is a subdomain of my main site that is entirely education-focused with an emphasis on STEAM areas. 

I’ll openly admit there’s more IT-related material to be found there as of right now as that has been a personal focus of mine but I continue to add other areas as well where I can (like on writing stories).

The most recent post is on differentiating the uses of the term “Theory” as it isn’t used the same in everyday English versus science. 

Does It is Work on a Chromebook?

This is not only a question to be answered but the name of a series on my site and the focus of the newest post there. The newest addition is all about the FunimationNow app on Chromebook. 

See this and more at its dedicate page.
