Well. A couple of hours ago I had one of those potentially horrible accidents.
Phone slipped out my hand and hit the corner of my desk...
Look at it and the Tempered Glass screen protector was cracked right the way across, the screen of the phone itself? ABSOLUTELY FINE!

This is the first time I've dropped my phone in a why which that's happened. I've scratched it before, but never cracked any glass. Obviously I can't compare how a film protector would do differently.

But having seen this, seriously,… See More

investing in a Tempered Glass protector seems like a good suggestion.

I know I promised a picture of my new setup... But I'm just too busy to tidy my desk off (New fridge and freezer, tidying off my display cabinet, playing video games... What, THEY'RE IMPORTANT TOO!)

It's been a while since I lasted posted, to say it's been a rough year and a half would be an understatement.
On the positive side, In the last year, I've been able to upgrade from the tiny desk shown in my last update, to a large corner desk, and a new PC case. No more overheating problems!
The Star Citizen mousepad is now on the wall looking awesome rather than on under the keyboard, and I have replaced it with a most blank extra-large pad.
I've also upgraded from the passable-at-best microphone I… See More

had previously, to an XLR Microphone and mixer combination.

I am still trying to work out how best to set it all up so I can easily access everything. The Logitech G 910 is beautiful, but is just ever so slightly too wide to fit the HOTAS on each side. I am also still using the same G502 mouse, which has proven itself an amazing and reliable mouse, easily the best I've ever owned.

Up-to-date pictures of my setup will be coming soon.
Hopefully, if things go well this coming month, I will also be looking to return to semi-regular twitch streaming.

Hope everyone's been great this last year.

Got an early Christmas present - a Thrustmaster T-Flight HOTAS - so I am now totally ready for the next Star Citizen module (Alpha 2.0) and having a blast with Arena Commander and Elite: Dangerous.

I might have to try using it in Evochron Mercenary or X3: Terran Conflict to see if it makes those games enjoyable at last.

Done with the stream for now, got too tired to focus properly. Still getting used to streaming, so thanks to anyone who popped by.
