Work Perks

There's a few nice things at work today and yesterday. I got a $34 AMC Movie Theater ticket and then today, we were given a 14lb turkey!

Sometime I really like work :)

CES 2025

Weekend Gamer here. With CES (Consumer Electronics Show) happening right now in Las Vegas, we are getting a lot of tech news, like the Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 5090 Graphics Cards which will cost nearly $2,000! Officially the start date is January 7, but the media preview kickoff started January 6.     AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme amd.com No surprise, but we got an announcement that AMD will be releasing a new generation of AMD Ryzen Z2 processors (the Z2 Extreme, the Z2, and Z2 Go). Currently, most of the current PC gaming handhelds on the market right now are using the AMD Z1 Extreme or slower variants of the Z1 chip. So, for 2025, expect to see ROG Ally 2 , Legion Go 2 , and even Steam Deck 2 (Steam is not releasing Steam Deck 2 any time soon), to all be adopting the new, faster (and more efficient) Z2 processor. Although I only mention the top three, but I suspect other handheld...

    I honestly thought that Google had Blogger shutdown, but it's still around. Don't blame me for thinking this, because Google, in their effort to save money, shut down custom domain email, business apps (you have to pay for it now), Google Sites (the Blogger alternative), RSS newsfeed, Google Photos (no longer unlimited, now you have to pay for additional storage). Just based on their previous actions, the Blogger shutdown (or you might have to pay) might not be far behind. Anyway, I really did think Blogger was killed. So I typed in blogger.com and it automatically logged me into my account. I haven't used this account since 2007, since I moved over to Typepad, which offered more customization and I just like the platform a little more. The other alternative was Wordpress, but they were restrictive... unless you pay for storage and features. Since I have a lot of time on my hands on my long extende...

Pho Ever Yours

Image
    When I first arrived in Jacksonville, Florida, the house I was staying in was not in a good state for living. So, the first few weeks, I was eating out all the time. So… here is my ranking of top Phở restaurants in Jacksonville. If you are not familiar with Pho, it is Vietnam’s most popular food to serve, at least in America. It’s a soup-based dish with rice noodles. You can get it with beef (Pho Bo) or chicken (Pho Ga). Most restaurants have something called “Dac Biet”, which means Deluxe. Please note that this is not a definitive list. I know everybody is raving about Pho Today, but that place is just too far for me to visit (just to eat Pho). The small list below are the restaurants that I’ve eaten at … which are generally close to where I live, or happenstance that are in an area that I’m visiting. Vu’s Phavorite Pho in Jax ZEN Pho & Noodles zennoodlescompany.com This is a chain of...
