Hey so i know it’s been like 50 billion years since i posted an update, but I’ve been busy. Great news is that i have lots of exciting things lined up to do with this site (as I’ve had an equally large number of things happen in my life over the last few months).
So, i have a bunch of articles i have lined up. I have a new ‘how to’ on running an old classic on windows 7. This time it’s Starcraft + Brood war )) I know this is one of those games that no one seems to be able to get to run properly (it has to do with the really old rendering framework that is no longer compatible). I can run it. So much so that I’ve nearly finished brood war. (and yes I’m running 64bit) The game runs smooth and i have no problems with colour. The solution is quite literally a hack – one that is as random as it is elegant 
Stay tuned and i will be updating on how to make more of your lives happy again 
Next up there are going to be some site changes. This blog will be moved to a subdomain (i’m hoping that wont screw too much with my google pagerank). The reason for this is that i have more than just blog content I’m going to be pushing out over the next few months. I’ve been very busy the last few months (and hence not really replying to comments). I’ve started a new job for my year in industry, I’ve been playing around with a lot of HTML5 stuff (VERY exciting). There has been javascript, java, scala, QT and objective C. I’m currently in closed beta for my first Android app and I’m in the design documentation stage for my second (I’m hoping this one will be as big as i plan to make it beautiful )) Besides that I’m busy working in some pretty heavy financial software as part of my job, and aside from my two mobile apps I’m also about to start work on one of my dream projects (this will be H.U.G.E) as well as starting work on new project with my friend – which is going to change the online world in mindblowing ways – trust me Somewhere in the middle of all of that I’ve got to redesign the new generation of this site as well as actually finish my uni profile page – which i started back in first year and then stalled – because…well…..uni
I have some security articles i want to push out – that I’ve had lying around since i was back in high school. I’m hoping some things haven’t changed too much (although the world of computer security ain’t the way it used to be when i was rewriting IM chat traffic with a p3 coppermine in the freezing English winter). Last but not least – there is a possibility of me doing some media. I’m thinking possibly a podcast, but I’m not sure and this is just a wild idea (albeit one that people have been pushing me to do for quite a while). The topic is undecided as is the broadcast language (either English or Russian).
If you haven’t already now is as good a time to subscribe to this blog as any – i try to post less but more. I don’t have too much time to sit and punch out creative work (as all my creative energy is usually used up on other things), but if i plan to write something i try and make is something that will make the world a better place for whoever stumbles across it I will be updating more frequently after the redesign and especially after i start releasing apps. I’m hoping for a regular stream of development updates, tutorials and hacks. Stay tuned
