Eclipse Plugins

Some plugins I use, may use or should use for Eclipse. I don't use Eclipse much (well, at all, really) for C++ related stuff, which is why I haven't got around to checking out CDT yet.

Mac

An incomplete list of Mac software I may or may not be using at any given time.

Windows

Some of the software I am using on my Windows boxes. Or not, as it may happen, but in that case I used to use it. Possibly. They're cool anyway.

Android

Since I'm experimenting with Android on my HD2, I've started compiling a list of potentially useful applications. I currently use AppBrain for the purpose of synchronising and managing my list of applications.

Some useful applications:

Drupal 7

Drupal 7 has been released, and I decided that the occasion warranted an update of the website. I was running (a woefully out of date) version 5, so the update wasn't entirely pain free, as I had to go via Drupal 6 first. That being said, it was less painful than it could have been, I'm sure.

Everything should be up and running ok now, but there is the occasional glitch here and there that I'll look at when I get a chance:

Google Chrome Extensions

Google Chrome extensions in use

Windows Mobile

Programs I use on Windows Mobile. Probably.

Firefox Extensions

A list of Firefox extensions I use, have used, could use, should use, may use, consider using, and so on... it's really just a reminder to myself rather than anything.

Quotes

Some quotes...

Computer Games

So, I sat here thinking (or not, as it may be, the time is 1.30am and the brain has pretty much packed in for the night), what are my all time favourite games?

Overclocking

Recently I bought a new CPU, motherboard and RAM, and as I've been doing for some time set about trying to overclock it. I already knew that it should do well, many of the recent Intel CPUs, including the Q6600, are known for being good clockers.

In the end I settled on 3.5GHz, which is very good for a 2.4GHz processor on air cooling. I could probably push it a bit further, but 3.6GHz on air got a bit too hot so the cooling would need to be improved in that case.

Safely Remove (hidden) Hardware

A while ago I bought an Icy Dock MB-559 external enclosure (which lets you swap drives by means of attaching a tray/carrier to the drive and slot it into the enclosure, but that's an aside), and connected this to the eSATA connector on the back of my motherboard (by today's standards, a slightly aging ASUS A8N32-SLi).

Slight update

Spurred by Neil's recent tinkerings over at QPRToday, I went and did something I've been meaning to do for ages: Do a slight face lift.

Thunderbird Extensions

The following is a list of Thunderbird extensions I use, have used, could use, so on and so forth. The slight flaw in this plan is that I don't really use any Thunderbird extensions. So, er, well, while it's a "reminder to self", it's not much of a reminder. Yet, anyway.
