<p class="question">Who are you, and what do you do?</p> <p class="question">Who are you, and what do you do?</p>
<p class="answer">My name is Scott Wallace and I'm a hacker at heart. This means that I love technology and messing about with it until it does what I want it to -- not the other way around. I'm a "contracting IT Systems Engineer". I like to think that I specialise in automation but it's really just scripting myself out of work. I'm essentially a mercenary and will work for the highest bidder. My main area of expertise lies around the Internet and web technologies.</p> <p class="answer">My name is Scott Wallace and I'm a hacker at heart.

<p class="answer">When travelling, to ensure I have Internet connectivity, I carry a <a href="http://amzn.to/202y9NN" target="_blank">Huawei E5331</a> portable WiFi device with a local data SIM thrown in the back. So far it seems reliable and very unobtrusive. To reduce the amount of charging equipment required I also take an <a href="http://amzn.to/2a75fvO" target="_blank">EC Technology 8-Port 60W 12A USB Charger</a> with me.</p> <p class="answer">When travelling, to ensure I have Internet connectivity, I carry a <a href="http://amzn.to/202y9NN" target="_blank">Huawei E5331</a> portable WiFi device with a local data SIM thrown in the back.

<p class="answer">For media consumption I have a <a href="http://amzn.to/2anFPGv" target="_blank">Roku 3</a> hooked up to a 40" <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001W3QUXK" target="_blank">Samsung Series 8 LED TV</a>. All the media is loaded onto a <a href="http://amzn.to/1ZxZGtF" target="_blank">Netgear ReadyNAS Ultra-4</a> with enough space to last well into the future. To control the TV and the Roku I use the awesome <a href="http://amzn.to/1ZxZN8t" target="_blank">Logitech Harmony 600</a> universal remote. I cannot recommend these remotes enough. The living room also houses a <a href="http://amzn.to/202zc0a" target="_blank">Sonos Play:5</a> for streaming music and <a href="http://amzn.to/202zdB3" target="_blank">Sonos Play:1</a>s in the dining room and kitchen.</p> <p class="answer">For media consumption I have a <a href="http://amzn.to/2anFPGv" target="_blank">Roku 3</a> hooked up to a 40" <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001W3QUXK" target="_blank">Samsung Series 8 LED TV</a>.
