I have been pondering upon how to start writing about this particular subject. And probably overcomplicating it. Yes, definitely overcomplicating it. Before I start reviewing books I wanted to give some kind of an intro to anyone stumbling upon this blog and not knowing anything about the world of Warhammer. My initial idea was to actually skip that and introduce the world by reviewing various books. Then, while reviewing the books, I planned to talk about the specific subjects from the lore.
I have recently realised that people actually visit and read things on my blog and some even asked me why am I not writing more. To be honest, I am bored of writing/talking about tech stuff. I am not a serious blogger and by the time I write something about any burning tech subject it has already passed into history. And even if I were quicker to write about things I don’t find them very interesting.

Neat little black USB devices with a small “y” in a golden circle (or an inverted Half Life looking lambda) attached to their laptops, sometimes hanging on a keychain. But what is it?
Before we move onto what this little device is used for let’s talk about two-factor authentication and why you should have it on all your online accounts.
We get tracked, profiled and observed at every step we make online. Well, not only online, but I will focus in this post on our online lives. Whether we are aware of that or not is irrelevant, it is still happening. It is so widespread that I know a lot of people who have simply given up, and they live with the awareness that every app, every site and every device they have at home is collecting unknown amount of data and sending it to unknown places.
