For my own sanity, and for a clear fresh start, I am rebranding this site as Nerdrahtio. Rahtio, being from the greek word ratio (rah-she-oh) for reason. The H added to help achieve correct pronunciation and for a unique flair. This name change is a bit annoying, the previous .com still functions for now, and I’d like to ask everyone to update your bookmarks and like the appropriate FB page.
Plenty more fun stuff to come later and I look forward to the future.
Have you ever wanted to slap a rocket together, launch it in the atmosphere and sit back and laugh as your boosters fall off fly around and collide with your construction facility? Well then! Welcome to KSP the game of boosters, explosions and even more boosters!!!!
Due to internal changes, the Podcast link is temporarily dead. Stay tuned for it’s return.
Forums have temporarily been removed until I can insure no one has inappropriate access.
You might also notice some other menu changes, including another dead link. I apologize, but I’m making things more tidy and things will be back to working order soon.
Returning to our look at excellent Minecraft youtube videos on Mondays, is a must learn for creating cool hidden bases. Be sure to head over to youtube proper to give the author a follower if you like his stuff.
First up, “all about that space” one that I found by accident while looking for the other that I haven’t seen make the rounds too many times. After that “all about that base” which is exclusively star wars focused as opposed to the broader focus of “all about that space” which features nods to all kinds of sci-fi properties.
I was floored when I first saw this and I had to share it. Check out the images shared below (with permission) of Jeremy Hill’s amazing G.I.Joe Millennium Falcon. He posted Here on Universal Joes a closed G.I.Joe FB page of which I am member (and you should join too, if for no other reason than tell Jeremy how cool this is)
Join Sam (me) and Aaron as they look at 50 years of GI Joe. This time, they’re joined by Gary “Goggles” Head AKA Gyre-Viper from JoeDeclassified and the JDSO podcast. In this episode, we take a look at the origins of the 1980s relaunch of GI Joe: A Real American Hero, retouching quickly on the 12″ iteration’s origin. Gary lends us his brain, Aaron fills us in on a few things that were happening in Europe at the same time with Action Force, and finally Aaron asks both Gary and Sam about the future of the brand. This is an extravaganza of awesome Joe stuff. You can listen to it bellow in the embedded audio player. For more of Sam, stay on this website and use the drop down menu above, for more from Aaron head to the new nerdversity101 page: http://nerdversity101podcasts.blogspot.co.uk/
Sadly Gary Head passed after this recording. He was incredibly supportive in the relaunch to Nerdrahtio and had planned to return to discuss more topics, including an episode one of his favorite comics Age of Apocalypse. He is missed daily by children, their mother, family and friends.
This post has been updated to reflect the split that occurred and ultimately lead to this website changing from nerdversity.com to Nerdrahtio.com and Nerdversity101 continuing on with Aaron and Alex and me (Sam) Gaining Tom as a co-anchor on the podcast, and retaining control of the website’s content and designs. There was drama, but that appears to be down, I received an apology, and we are moving on.
It’s the time again. Coil Con is this Saturday in Indy (click here for more info) As we look forward to a good time hanging out together, checking the new exclusives in person (including the obscure Weaponsmith from G.I.Joe European Missions!) I thought I would share the pics of my set from last year in a sort of review/ more of a spotlight.
