Did QHYCCD just kill ZWO ASIAIR?

So I am always looking for new stuff and happened to run into Dylan's video on QUARCS. I joined up on Discord and tested out the image but it didn't work on my ASIAIR modded RPi5 but it did work on the stock ASAIR Pro. The big deal here is QUARCS will run from a...

TERRAMASTER + TrueNAS = WIN!

Intro So since I upgraded my workstation it was time to also update my old Synology DS214se that has lasted me with the same 2x1TB WD NAS drives since May of 2015. Sadly it is only 2 bay NAS and not worth adding in the max storage of 12TB as it's an older NAS with...

Intro It's been eight months since my last blog post or YouTube video. I'd planned to keep adding value-packed content based on Astro and technical stuff, but life and work intervened. It's been a crazy eight months, but I won't bore you with the details. I will just...

Grammarly…stat

So I have been blogging again and a little more than often due to the Rrrrrrona. After going back and reading some of my blog post my grammar is just plain poor. However, being honest when I was in High School I had to take English over again during summer school at...

Time keeps ticking

Well, it's been about four years since I have blogged. So what has happened in four years? A lot. I started my first business Black Mirror Studio and did what maybe some considered impossible and created an Electronic Chess Notation device from a re-purposed cell...

Nexus 6…YES :)

Nexus 6…YES 🙂

As an x-developer of Android custom ROMs, owning then Nexus 6 has been so damn nice. This is the second time VZW has allowed a Nexus phone on their network and I for one, tip my hat off to Verizon for allowing for such a sweet device that is not bloated out and also...

Best Rom For Nexus 7 2012

So I am using the 1st gen Nexus 7 from 2012. I have tried every ROM under the sun and nothing seems to keep it running at a solid level. CM10, CM10.2, CM11, Stock 4.3, 4.4, 5.0. I have tried everything but it just doesn't feel peppy anymore and overall it's just as...

Moto X Developer Edition Review

Moto X Developer Edition Review

So I am not as big into CyanogenMod Android development like I once was. However, I think I have finally found one of the most perfect cell phones on the market. It's not the fastest, it doesn't have the best camera and may even lack some of the features that other...
