Splatfest time again March edition

For those of you on this blog that are not aware I am a huge fan of nintendos thirdperson shooter, SPLATOON2 (and splatoon 1 but right now I don't own a wiiu, stuck with #2)

Mentioned earlier this week, there will be holding another monthly splatfest tournament going on.

This months topic of debate is "Which came first,  the chicken or the egg?"  With players able to choose which side of the argument they're on, and fight for  their appropriate side.

 The Splatfest will take place:

3/9 (Fri) 8:00 p.m. PT – 3/10 (Sat) 8:00 p.m. PT 

For those who have never taken part in a splatfest, it is a turf war style battle, with the normal two battle fields rotating plus the mysterious shifty station map.
Overall rankings are done via most single join battles joined, most team battles (pre arranged team battles, not to be confused with normal match making)  and the popularity vote of which team got choose the most.

Different ranks are earned depending on how many matches you play during the splatfest giving you different titles which stay on your profile, such as "chicken defender" etc, with gender pronouns being provided according to your squiddo.
 

Goodluck out there people and play hard.

Parital Teardown / Repair of Sony MDR-XB650BT

Welcome to another edition of I broke something, SO LETS FIX IT. While on my daily adventures I had the misfortune of my headphones falling from my head and hitting the ground, the result of thus is the controller board for the headphones became loose due to a small piece of plastic breaking free, which technically meant that the controls didn't work and charging wasn't functioning. So like any good tinkerer would do......it sat on my workbench for 3 months and then i eventually got to it during coffee time one morning this week. So the teardown was actually fairly simple, the first step was to gently pull at the edge of the earcuff where it is glued to the headphones, when you see the ring of adhesive take a flat head screw driver being careful not to tear it, and pulling up the whole ring revealing the initial 3 screw holes. ( as shown in the below picture. Screw holes are revealed after the earcuff is gently removed from headphones. First take out the three ...

Google Home

So the Google home, (before you ask about the mini, I don't have one of those yet, I got one of the full size ones) One of my favorite christmas presents and the most fun wireless speaker I have had In a very long time, and can honestly say I use everyday.  From adding calendar events to setting alarms to just listening to music, it fits into the niche of tech that i am into, ( that being minimal design, but extensible usability). It does have it's pitfalls, such as intermittently not being able to hear pitch properly, Thus not being able to authenticate the user properly, which given the alternative, I would rather be locked out than my data accessed by just anyone wandering in my room.  That problem can be minimized by using different pitches and or inflections in your voice when setting up the initial "Hey google, Okay Google....." (Trust me you'll be tired of setting it up to when you change out phones like me, story for another day) But All things In t...
