Doing a quick review of Diablo III on three 46" displays (HDTV) using nVidia surround and Widescreenfixer software to enable full hardware accelerated surround in a game that should have had it built in to begin with. Playing on this massive set of screens really changes how the game feels and that coupled with amazing sound really makes the game for me.
Lighting control was using 3x Westinghouse wireless outlets with remote if anyone didn't catch that in the video.

I have done videos on the Man Cave upstairs and the server closet but have not done a video on my bedroom yet. It deserves it's own video since it is no slouch when it comes to technology.

Time to put this Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 to the test and fly it around the Man Cave and take some video. This is a really nerdy gadget and I couldn't be happier that my friend Greg got it for me as a birthday present.
WHAT'S GOOD
Enhanced Control: As noted above, Parrot's drones are controlled via a smartphone or tablet app (we used both an iPad and an iPhone for this review, with similar good results for each) through an interface that is in one sense remarkably intuitive and in another mildly frustrating. The drone mimics the tilt of your device, so to fly it forward you tilt your smartphone forward, and to fly right or left or backward or some combination of those, you tilt your smartphone accordingly. That's the intuitive part. But when you rotate the drone (which is done via a touchscreen joypad within the app) to the point where you and the drone are no longer facing the same direction--let's say the drone is facing 90 degrees to your right--all intuition dissolves immediately. Now, if you tilt your phone forward the drone travels to your right. If you tilt your phone to the right, the drone comes back toward you.
Parrot remedied the need for the pilot to be constantly compensating for the direction the drone is facing via a 3-axis magnetometer that tells the drone precisely how it is oriented respective to the control device. With the "Absolute Control" option switched on in the app's settings, the drone flies with respect to the way the device is facing, regardless of which way the drone is facing (if you tilt your phone to the left, the drone always flies to your left regardless of whether that's the drone's left or not). This drastically simplifies piloting. Where version 1.0 took a period of getting used to, a user can get comfortable piloting version 2.0 virtually right out of the box.
Flight Stability: As you will see at the end of the accompanying video, there is a brief moment after takeoff during which the AR.Drone 2.0 appears a little unsteady as its sensors establish a stable hover. But the new pressure sensor really does seem to deliver--Parrot claims that the drone can steadily climb to 164 feet and remain stable in calm conditions, and while we never took it quite that high (we found that the Wi-Fi link that connects device to drone would sever before we could get up that high) we did take it up more than a few dozen feet. Wind gusts have a tendency to upend it a bit, in which case it can lose some altitude pretty precipitously, but in all cases the drone re-established a stable hover almost immediately. We only managed to crash our AR.Drone 2.0 a few times, almost exclusively indoors while negotiating obstacles and almost always due to pilot error/bravado.
Software Interface: The piloting software itself hasn't undergone a radical transformation in the second iteration--in fact, the software used to pilot 1.0 doesn't isn't supported anymore, so if you own a AR.Drone version 1.0, you now use the new 2.0 software to pilot both versions. But there are some handy features embedded in the app that make it easy to share your videos straight to YouTube (you can actually log into Google/YouTube/Picasa through the app and dump your flight videos or pics right to your media channels) or to connect with other pilots through the AR.Drone Academy, Parrot's online community for AR.Drone pilots where they can easily swap photos and videos, share flight data to unlock achievements, and find other pilots flying nearby. The Academy aspect is also useful for those looking to explore the community for software hacks developed through AR.Drone's open API.

I picked up a few SYLVANIA Mosaic Flexible LED Light Kit's from Costco Wholesale today to deck out the Man Cave. In this video I unbox the units and review them and take them through there paces. It turns out they are bright enough to be a light replacement for the room which is exactly what I did with them and they don't produce any glare on the computer screens which is really nice.

I wanted to create my first video for the Man Cave that is focused on offering advice to solve a problem and increase the joy I get from my Man Cave. I hope others will find this video useful and use the solution I give her as a simple way to greatly increase the fun they have when playing simulators with the T500RS attached to a desk or other non-permanent mount.

DISCLAIMER: This was mutual trolling and everyone on the server was involved, we were not ruining the game for anyone and that was our goal just to fart around and have fun. Sorry if that was not clear!
This video shows some creative uses of Air to Surface Missiles in Garry's Mod to kill unsuspecting noobs. Once we figured out the missiles could be grabbed from the air with a gravity gun and maneuvered to their targets it was on like the break of dawn! This was probably the most fun I've had playing Garry's mod to date as you can tell by my constant laughing. There is just something hugely hilarious about guiding missiles the size of a car through small corridors to hit the target :P I hope you guys enjoy the video, I had a lot of fun making all these Garry's mod videos.
