Do you own a Samsung Watch and have noticed that the battery is draining much quicker than expected? I too had this problem and spent hours scouring the web for answers. I tried various “solutions” including uninstalling apps, using a darker watchface and even resetting the watch entirely. While this preserved a very small amount…
We’ve been in isolation for little over a week now and I’ve lost count for the amount of people saying that they don’t know what to do. I’m going to put together a few things that could potentially help you get through this and who knows; maybe you’ll get something out of it. Learn to…
If you’ve been keeping an eye on Worldometer like me, then you’ll already know what is happening and won’t need to read on. If not, then you’re probably asking; what is going on? Should I be worried? Here is information provided by the NHS in the UK. COVID-19 is a new illness that can affect…
It has been almost two years since I last wrote about this project, and it been three since I first wrote about it. A lot has happened since both of those posts in that it has grown organically to a point where it’s actually doing well for itself. I’m able to sit back and not…
Have you ever wanted to store text in a secure way, so that if someone were to stumble across it, they wouldn’t understand what it says? I’m the same. Although every hashing/encryption method out there has a way to decrypt it easily. The only way to be 100% secure would be to create your own…

Welcome to 2020, the year where absolutely anything can happen. I say this because it’s true. Like a renewed faith in life, everyone will be scurrying to do anything to improve their lives. It is a brand new decade after all. So, moving on to the resolutions for the year. Did you set yourself any?…
I’ve been very lapse toward the end of this year in terms of writing posts and I know I can say that I will do my best to rectify the situation; but I know that will never be the case. I’ve put it down to poor time management and life has got in the way…
This is something that was knocked up relatively quickly when I stumbled across the domain isitdown.me being available. The basis of this project is to allow anyone to simply type in the website address they are trying to access and my external server will try to hit that domain to determine if it’s down for…
There is a relatively new scam doing the rounds at the moment and you may have already been a victim of it. Scammers have found that you no longer need to fill a users inbox with potential phishing emails, but rather they can get you by inviting you to a Google Calendar event using your…
