MGAceman's Blogger Blog

JetPack is good for having some of the features on a self-hosted installation that you would normally only find on a WordPress .org hosted blog and now it has reached version 2.1 which brings a whole load of tweaks and fixes, so I've listed them in this bonus blog post (already done todays 'Post-A-Day' post).

I'm always looking to streamline and optimize Mental Gamers in any way I can to conserve bandwidth while also keeping loading times low, that's why when I saw someone mention CloudFlare (thanks @weefz ), I checked out the site and saw that there's a free option, so I signed up and started using it.

Had a go at Skyrim on the laptop, it kind of runs OK with everything low, the main problem is there seems to be a slight delay with a controller, mostly with the right stick which is used to look around, it's not quite right.

I'd been playing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for quite some time before Microsoft decided to give us a Cloud service to upload our saves to, the problem was, I left it a bit late to start uploading saves (I was in the process of packing away the old Xbox 360 to trade-in and upgrade), also, the Oblivion save wouldn't upload.

So yeah, I'm still playing Skyrim after all this time, still attempting to unlock achievements with the latest being the one where you have a bounty in all nine holds (Master Criminal). I've managed to get a bounty in seven of them, but I encountered a problem when trying to get bountys in Dawnstar and Winterhold.
