Toys & Tech of the Trade: Slick/ MTR & RAGE Works

Toys and technology for professionals.
Toys and technology for professionals.

If you have been a long time MTR listener or RW reader then you will know Slick's name immediately. When not handling production for MTR behind the scenes you will see Slick working on various pieces of content for RAGE Works (including but not limited to) gaming and entertainment and actively engaging with people in our communities on Facebook and even in our forums back in the day. So let's see what Toys & Tech of Trade Slick needs to work and play. Take it away Slick!

Who are you and what do you do?: Handel Williams, I (officially) work for Verizon. I am an editor and on-air producer for R.A.G.E. Works.

Base of operations a/k/a home: Queens, NY

Current mobile device: Samsung Galaxy Note 3, but looking at possibly upgrading to the Huawei Nexus 6P

What do you like/dislike the most about your current mobile device?: I love the S-Pen and Samsung's suite of apps are useful. Despite its age, the battery life is still great for daily usage and it charges pretty quickly for a 2013 model phone. I dislike that because of age, the phone is slowing down a bit in terms of performance and the Verizon bloatware is part of why I may go Nexus.

Three mobile apps you can't live without: Google Hangouts, Slack, Google Maps (Lonely Island said it – Google Maps is the best!)

Show us your home screen:

 

Current Laptop or desktop: Custom built desktop

Most used program/programs on laptop/desktop: Google Chrome, MS Outlook, Notepad, Photoshop, ComicRack, Sony Movie Studio Platinum, Live Gamer Portable software

Show us your desktop: 

First place you go when you open your phone or computer: (phone) newest message, wherever it is from (except voicemail) / (PC) open Chrome, check gmail, then watch anime

One website you recommend to people often: Rageworks.net every time I post an article, that is a recommendation!

Favorite piece of tech besides your phone/computer: PS4

What's playing in the background while you work?: World Trigger, Episode 51 (paused)

Gamer?: Avid and I would say “hardcore,” since at least '81

What are you playing?: This week I finished Tales from the Borderlands, playing Onechanbara ZII Chaos, One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3, Dragon Quest Heroes, GTA 5 and Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition. Looking to pick up Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax this weekend, but going to wait for the PS4 version.

Last gaming purchase: Yoshi's Wooly World (also need to play this)

What item have you purchased recently that is less than $100 that has made your life easier or more enjoyable: One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 (review hopefully next week)

Where can people find your work and connect with you?: My reviews, previews, rants, etc. are all on rageworks.net. I am on Facebook under my real name. I am on Twitter @RW_Slick. On Google+ it is either my name or RW_Slick. The best place to chat with me live is by listening to our shows on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 11 PM at https://rageworks.net/live/.
