  • 3rd time’s a charm [Test]

    Third and probably final test!

    (I will explain why there is tests later :P)

  • MusicBot on Discord

    In the past couple of months, I have moved my gaming community from our Website forums to something more popular, Discord.

    This was by far, the best decision that I have made as our community is more popular than ever. I had got a request from a member, asking for a MusicBot to be implemented.

    Why not, right?

    So, during one lunch time at work, I decided to get it up and running and it has already attracted a few people to exchange their favourite songs.

    One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.
    ~ Bob Marley

    A few points about the features of the MusicBot.

    • Runs on the web server that we have, so not dependent on other server providers.
    • Allows users to input a single YouTube URL or a Playlist!
    • When there is nothing in the queue, it defaults to a autoplaylist.txt file which contains nearly 3000 YouTube videos.
    • Volume control
    • Permission system
    • Skip functionality (This is a big one)

    And the developer is actively working on the Bot, so hopefully it will get more popular in the future.

  • pf v0.3

    At last, I have finally bothered my ass to update this website once again.

    I have changed the theme from Uno Zen to Crush as it is a lot more simplier than what Uno Zen was offering.

    One nice little addition was the Unsplash images. Everytime you reload the main http://pf.ie page, a new Unsplash image from the ‘Technology’ category loaded.

    To do this, I simply done this with the index.hbs theme was:

    On Line 5 change:

    <header class="main-header {{#if @blog.cover}}" style="background-image: url({{@blog.cover}}){{else}}no-cover{{/if}}">

    to:

    <header class="main-header {{#if @blog.cover}}" style="background-image: url(https://source.unsplash.com/category/technology){{else}}no-cover{{/if}}">

    So that is something I suppose 🙂

  • WWE Battleground Predictions

    Welcome back to my WWE PPV Prediction series where I list the card that is happening for the WWE Battleground PPV that is happening on Sunday night (24th July).
    And here we go.

    Winners will be maked in bold during the PPV

    Pre-Show

    The Usos vs Breezango – PREDICTION: Breezango will get killed by The Usos. It is only fitting. Make them look strong.

    Main Show

    John Cena, Enzo Amore & Colin Cassidy vs The Club – PREDICTION: Big Match John wins again!

    Rusev (c) vs Zack Ryder for the WWE United States Championship – PREDICTION: Zack Ryder. I would like to see him to get a push finally. It is time for him to have a proper title reign.

    Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owens – PREDICTION: Sami Zayn. Just prefer him over Kevin Owens

    The New Day (c) vs The Wyatt Family – PREDICTION: Wyatt Family. The family got split up (Braun on RAW, Bray and Erick on Smackdown and Luke is leaving) so they need a good win.

    Sasha Banks and TBD vs Charlotte & Dana Brooke – PREDICTION: Before making this post, Sasha had announced on Twitter that her partner has been chosen. We do not know who this is, but it is either Paige, Nikki Bella or a last minute callup for Bayley (Bayley would make sense here) BAYLEY DID GET CALLED UP. WHOO HOO!

    The Miz (c) vs Darren Young for the WWE Intercontinenal Championship – PREDICTION: Miz Retains

    Becky Lynch vs Natalya – PREDICTION: Becky Lynch. Gotta go for me girl <3

    Dean Ambrose (c) vs Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins in a Triple Threat for the WWE Championship – PREDICTION: Dean Ambrose Retains!

    Other Guff

    The Highlight Reel with Randy Orton.
    PREDICTION: This is obviously to promote Randy vs Brock at Summerslam nexty month and I would predict that Brock Lesnar interuppts, run down to the ring and beat up Randy. Why would Randy be there otherwise?

    As always, I will be in the Taima chat tomorrow night from about 11pm and watching the PPV from 1am! http://taima.tv/r/sc – See you there.

  • pf.ie v0.2

    This update is just to make the site A) Secure and B) Look better in the URL.

    1. I have fixed the issue with the URL coming back as pf.ie:2368 where the 2368 was the port that Ghost use. A simple change in the config.js resolves that.

    2. Let’s Encrypt SSL has been installed. Bit of a tricky one to get this working. I had to change the Proxy port for Nginx from 2368 to 80. Disable Ghost, restart nginx, run Let’s Encrypt to install the cert, change the config back and then start Ghost.

    I might do a proper tutorial for that where time permits. If you would like me to get it done sooner, poke me on Twitter and I’ll do it. Twitter

    No other updates are planned for the site as it is ok the way it is. Might change up the theme or something in the next version but we shall see 🙂
