Thy name is Geek

Filed under: Day to day — jorge @ 09:50

I’d like to start this post by having a look at normal people. The definition of normal people first perhaps. Not that I have any clue of what normal is anymore. I mean, can you honestly say that you know what normal is? I guess the definition of normal is “what most people do” or “something occurs most frequently”. Anyway, the reason I start like this is because I sometimes have to laugh when I think of what makes me happy. Getting my Xbox 360 to work with my FreeNAS-server makes me happy. In fact, I feel the urge to do a little victory-dance when just thinking of it. That’s me, always the geek. I often wish I was different though, that I was perhaps doing something that made more sense. Like being a carpenter, plumber. Not sitting on my arse all day working. I am trying to improve though, taking the initiative to be the handyman at home, which is going better.

Anyway! FreeNAS and Xbox, they work damn well together! Finally! I have my decoder and Xbox hooked up to my home cinema system, while Xbox streams the content from the FreeNAS server. Gotta love it!

Now if you’ll excuse me, a victory-dance is in order (again).
