I caved in, again. I created a new account on the Instagramz. My previous account was hacked, and it made it so that I was following thousands of people I didn't want to follow. So I disabled the account, made a new temporary one in the meantime, and now that my previous account name became available again I re-opened ustoopia at the Instagramz. Not sure yet if I'll be using it actively a lot, but I do know that I'll be using it to lurk around here and there, now and then.

Blizzard announced at Blizzcon 2017 that a new World of Warcraft called Battle for Azeroth expansion will be released somewhere next year. Awesome introduction cinematic, as always. I'm excited! I think most players are excited. Are you excited? The video below shows all the previous World of Warcraft Expansion cinematics, in chronological order, including the […]

Here are a couple of things that you should do after you've installed Raspbian on your Raspberry Pi. Installing the Raspbian operating system itself is very easy, so I'm not going into that. You can figure that out on your own. This article is just about a couple of things that you should, or could, […]

For me personally, the Netflix TV-series The Expanse managed to fill a void that was created by what I believe to be a failing Star Trek sequel called Discovery that is also on Netflix. If you are, like me, somewhat disappointed in the new Star Trek series but still feel a primal urge for an […]

You guys belong in a zoo! I know it might be a bit immature, but I just can't help laughing my ass off at this video. I can keep watching this video. He's got talent!

Here's a video from the TV-news in 1994 about the traffic chaos problems around Eindhoven, the Netherlands caused by the hard-rock festival Dynamo Open Air that was visited by 125.000 people. Looking at the video now makes me feel ancient because I was at this festival with two good friends when I was in my […]

Let me tell you about Laurens. He's a young Dutch guy with a fresh family, and I know him because he also plays the game World of Warcraft. He became a member of our guild for a while, and we had the opportunity to get to know him through Discord. Furthermore, he is an intelligent […]

Many people have asked me questions about my colorblindness, but I've never been able to explain it as clear and informative as the fellow who made this video.

This weekend is Gamescom 2017 in Germany, where Blizzard has already presented their new upcoming content. I was pretty surprised to learn that the new patch goes live next week already!! Still so many things to do before then :-|.  What I always love is the Cosplay contest at these events. Transmogging is one of […]

If you are not a World of Warcraft player, you should stop reading right now because this post will probably not make any sense to you. I've decided to embark on a quest to find Leeroy. He's not dead yet, so he's got to be somewhere! I will start where the Terminator also started his quest; in the phone-book registry. So let's start making some calls! I will post the results here soon (press read more below for them once I've added them)

I would love to have one of these old Blizzard servers that the game World of Warcraft used to run on. Back in the day, a realm used to run on one of these bad boys. I need one of these servers for nostalgic reasons. And of course to mess around with to get my […]

Some random PvP arena game-play of me doing 2v2 in World of Warcraft Season 4 with a Death Knight friend.

This video is only funny if you are in ICT and also familiar with the TV-show Breaking Bad.

Our guild Vliegende Hollanders (Trollbane-EU) has recently decided to team up with Shadow Army (Aerie Peak-EU) to combine our resources and manpower to make some progress in the new Tomb of Sargeras raid, and it was a very successful evening. I uploaded a compilation to YouTube for those very few people that are interested in […]

He's back! And I mean, HE'S REALLY BACK! Hans Teeuwen performs a show for an audience of Brits and it works. It is great to see. And FUCK YEAH we're Dutch! See us damned! And FUCK THE FRENCH! Oh that feels good. Very therapeutic. Oh, it's on Netflix by the way. So go and see […]
