Many, including myself, have always been fascinated by the Titanic. So it's no wonder that this latest Titanic related video is making its rounds on the internet generating huge interest. The video simulates the sinking of the Titanic in real time - the entire 2 hours and 40 minutes - with "accuracy and attention to detail." https://youtu.be/rs9w5bgtJC8 The video was created by  developers of an upcoming game called "Titanic: Honor And Glory", which I

ARGGH! Okay, I've finally had it with the spam on Microsoft's Outlook.com service. Spam has periodically been a problem for years where it seemed like the spam filters would randomly break and spam would get through for days at a time, then all of a sudden it'd stop and would be fine for weeks. But not anymore! For the past few months to a year spam getting through has been constant! The most annoying thing is that it's obvious spam, that any common sensed filter should catch, but som

I remember first being suggested it years ago, and all the reviews said it was crap, which is the case for nearly all of the Early Access/Zombie Survival games out there, so I didn't pay it much mind and certainly didn't buy it. I'm forever looking fo

Google announced last month that they were killing off the Picasa App for windows, which has been my main photo app and organizer since about 2003 when it was paid software, long before google acquired it. This news was horrible for me, but not surprising, since the program hadn't been updated in a super long time, other than small UI tweaks and buttons to link to Google Services such as the Picasa Web Service, but it was still bad news. The reason I really liked Picasa was

I've been watching CNN for the past few weeks in total disgust. I used to think it was only Fox News who twisted, took things out of context, and even just made stuff up, but as it turns out, its the entire "media" in general. The only reason I even attempted to bother with CNN is because I subscribe to Sling TV, and CNN is their only real, well if you want to call it "real", Mainstream News Channel, and I wanted to watch the GOP Debates and such. I never knew how bullshit

Edit: Minecraft server closed down - also the host sucked, stay away from MinecraftServers.net - Shady people original article: mc.hyzteria.com or 104.218.101.37   I know many will say that since I am 32, I am way too old to be playing minecraft, but thats not true at all. For me Minecraft is really meditative. I like to simply load up the game dig some holes, build a shack, farm some plants, ride some horses, etc and think out my real life problems, and it be

The day before yesterday Donald Trump's campaign released a statement that they would be skipping CPAC and were instead going to be campaigning, and added a stop in my home town of Wichita, KS. At first I thought "cool?" I assumed the rally would be in the evening, at the time that I work, so I assumed I just wouldn't be able to attend, but then I learned it was early in the morning at 9am, which then I realized that I could actually goto this. I usually don't bother going to... well

Local news reported Nihole Mischke from Good Morning Spokane has recently interviewed 110-Year-Old Flossie Dickey on her birthday. Info: Flossie doesn't fight aging, and likes to nap. https://youtu.be/OAUn3A4QtaI

Where Have I been? As You may have noticed, New content on Grunch is sparse these days, and this is the reason: So for the past 15 years i've been suffering, or should i say living with weird health systems. I don't really want to dive into all that right now, but the main symptom I have is severe brain fog. What is brain fog? Well mine is lack of mental clairty, and over all the inability to think. It's like something in my head is preventing signals from connecting, I can't re

Lately I've been really missing and wanting to play DayZ Mod. It's been nearly a year since gave up on it and closed own my servers, and really haven't looked back til recently. DayZ Mod has always had bugs and issues, but the game was still very fun, and the positives used to outweigh the bugs, but the ultimate game killer for me was after the GameSpy network shut down, and no one was able to reliably find and connect to servers. The GameSpy network controlled the login and auth/server systems

The past few weeks have been such a headache. You my have noticed that I haven't posted anything in a while. This was mostly due to ASO (A Small Orange, My Host), messing up, and having issues. I used to strongly recommend this company, but I am now reconsidering this. A few weeks ago Grunch was down for nearly an entire week, as were nearly every other Cloud VPS customer of ASO.  ASO didn't provide much info as to why they were down, only that they were working on bringing the server

I love this guy Mack. His Video game reviews are usually hilarious, and has very good taste in games usually. This is more of a comedy peice than a review, very hilarious. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIRpaOq7DSE Check out more of his reviews hers: https://www.youtube.com/user/Worthabuyguys/videos

I know many people are looking for a proper adblocking solution. I posted a trick just yesterday on how to block ads in the Edge browser. Adblock and such work good as a browser extension, but whats better is to have a way to block ads SYSTEM wide and in programs and ads, and software such as Ad Muncher and Adguard do that. I've been an Ad Muncher subscriber for years, and it's sad to see that software dying. Luckily, we have an alternative: AdGuard. [caption id="attachment

The Edge browser has been out for nearly a year now, and due to lack of browser support, I haven't actually given it an actual shot until now. I have essential plugins/extensions that I need to use, which one is LastPass. Microsoft has stated that an update will come out... someday... that will make Extensions available in Edge. Hopefully that day is soon. However recently I've started to have problems with my browser of choice which is Firefox. For some odd rea

As you probably have noticed, the site looks a bit different. I have decided to go with a new layout and design of the site. I want to show more content while keeping it clean. Which is a bit silly since there is hardly any new content here, ha but hopefully that'll change soon enough. The old theme is one that I love, and it was very clean, but the problem is that it was too narrow and boxy. Also it was designed years ago so the coding was a bit off. Comparison

As you may have noticed, Grunch has been down for a nearly a week. The reason is, well i don't know the damn reason. A Small Orange which was previously my favorite host, has been broken for nearly a week, since the 25th, with no real explanation. I've been leaving the site hosted with them, hoping it'd come back on, but day after day, i'm finally getting annoyed. I finally decided to put Grunch temporarily on my old shared hosting account which is hosted with GeekStorage.

I'm sure many of you have heard of the rumors of the iPhone 6 Plus being brittle and easily bendable. Alot of us blew this off as just haters and anti apple people being crazy and doing what they do. Well surprise! Turns out its true. Now this could be old news since the iPhone 6 line has already been replaced by the iPhone 6s, but alot of people who got the 6 aren't going to upgrade to the 6s. We're going to keep our phones til at least the 7, if we even upgrade then, these suckers a

Rainbow Six Siege is the latest in the Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six series, and I must say, it's a whole hootin heck of a fun time. The first thing I noticed about this game is that it was very similar to an other game I played and wrote about earlier this year, called BurstFire, which I actually liked. You can read that article here. At the time, I didn't know that Burstfire was pretty much trying to clone Rainbow Six Siege. I have to say, they did a pretty good job at it. It

A few months ago I moved the Grunch to a small host called "A Small Orange". Which I loved. However after a month or so of hosting, I let weirdos weird me out about the fact that EIG owns ASO, which is bad because EIG usually buys hosts and then ruins them.  So, I let my weirdo friend spook me out, so I joined another host, KnownHost, which cost double the money, and used them for a couple months.  To be honest, I was kinda disappointed in KnownHost. Not because they're bad, but becau

I recently wrote an article about Amazon's Cloud Storage, which I am still using and love. It's definitely worth the $60 a year. However, I just came across a killer deal that allows you to register the service for only $5 for the first year, which is awesome. It was a black Friday deal, but its still working. I'm assuming it'll continue working til CyberMonday, but I could be wrong. They don't provide any info on this. However, today is Sunday, and the deal just
