I recently built a new PC, and have downloaded and played some games my old computer couldn’t handle. One of these games was Madden 20. Overall I have been very impressed with the newly added accessibility features everyone has been talking about. This post will not focus on the many things

Christmas just ended and folks might have some cash they want to spend. If getting a decent affordable recording setup is in your plans, this might help you decide. I’ll go through what I use along with what you can do to break the Yeti loop everyone gets stuck in. This is a blog post I’ve been meaning to write for a while now.
