Hipster Zombies

If you love shooting zombies and poking fun at hipster culture, there is one way to satisfy both of your cravings.  Hipster Zombies is a fun light hearted game for Android (and iOS, but ehh) in which you fight off undead hipsters armed with what else but a gun that fires cans of PBR and other hipster paraphernalia.

As you kill the undead you gain coins which you can use to upgrade weapons or buy new ones such as vinyl records and mason jars.  You can also purchase coins from the game store. Occasionally you gain extra coins for "ironic kills" destroying the brain munching scenesters with a taste of there own medicine, pipe smoking hipsters with tobacco pipes, biking hipsters with a "fixie fork", etc.

You unlock different location to defend the more zombies you kill.  These locations become more and more difficult to defend as you go along.  The area you need to defend grows larger giving the zombies more points of attack.

In the most recent update the game started utilizing Google Play Game Services, adding achievements and leader boards.  Which personally is one of my favourite new features of gaming on android though I'm one of the few in my circles using it.

Despite the fact that I am highly offended that apparently riding bikes and smoking pipes is "hipster" Hipster Zombies is a fun, simple, well designed and ironic... game that is worth a look.

Writing Goals

  Recently I came to the conclusion that I should write more often.  That is, I believe, I should start to consider myself a "writer."  That's the main reason there's been a bit of an increase in publishing to this blog (going from zero over the past few years to a couple times a month is a pretty huge jump).     I, like most humans, have thoughts and opinions which are a product of the times and places in which I live.  I figure I can do my part for future historians and write a few of them down.  I also just might have enough creative juice to pump out a story or two. This blog   I'd like to post to this blog at least once a week from now on, or at a minimum once a month.  Really, anything at all would be better than what I've been doing.  I'll mainly write about my life, family, interests, and opinions about, current events and local and state politics (I'll try to steer clear of national issues for my own sanity).  Pretty...

If you write a blog and never post it to Facebook will anybody read it?

My guess is no...  Let's test the hypothesis! Facebook and similar "social" feeds feel so bad to my soul.  I find them as a total waste of time and it's time to really really delete these things once and for all.  I've been hanging onto Instagram as I find it much less toxic.  Pictures often give off a more positive vibe than your aunts reshare of politically slanted news or your neighbor's cousin's wall of text complaining about how there is not Olive Garden within 100 miles of their house.  However, that doesn't change the fact that I am the product being sold on this Instagram.  Algorithms are being worked out to find just the right number of post to leave in between advertisements for me to feel most engaged and most likely to click.  Which news parody sites or webcomics I should like next are also constantly being updated and reconfigured based on my behaviour.  Facebook and its subsidiaries are not the only companies with this massive ...

Install ownCloud 2.0 on Ubuntu Server.

    I recently stumbled upon a tutorial on how to  setup ownCloud on a Debian machine .  I had actually never heard of ownCloud until reading this tutorial but now it is one of the projects I am most excited about.  ownCloud is an open source project that allows you to use your own server to store files, songs and do a bunch of other stuff.  It is similar to the many cloud services available on the web except it never leaves your "custody."     One very easy way to start using ownCloud is to install ownCloud 1.1 from the Ubuntu repository by running:  $ sudo apt-get install owncloud     However, ownCloud 1.1 is pretty boring compared to the super sexiness of ownCloud 2.0 in my opinion.  So if you are cool with drab old 1.1 then go ahead and just apt-get it.  But if you want the sexiness of 2.0 on your Ubuntu server please follow along... Getting ownCloud 2 up and running! Log into your Ubuntu server and install...
