update the yahoo

i didn’t know that yahoo already updated their messenger client to 7.5 and i’m still using the 7.0. uh, probably because i didn’t use much of it lately, except when i want to annoy people with the various audibles (sorry la nurul). nowdays i use gaim or the super light centericq. they’re much lighter and easier than ym. plus, they accept multiple client login. anywhoo, didn’t want to be left behind, i download the installer for ym 7.5.

the problem is, yahoo only provide a web installer at their messenger website. i must say, the web installer sucks. mine stopped and hanged at 68% twice. time is precious. fed up with it, i searched for ym offline installer at google. i found it and download the program from there. nice, nice.

the difference between the 7.0 anf 7.5 is the advertisement at the main window. the banner is kinda annoying. so again, i use the google and found this website that gave instructions on how to remove the banner. it requires you to play with the registry. so, be careful and enjoy.

plane on the highway, man

i think it was about 3 am. i heading home from klang doing some works and watching the football with friends. the road was mysteriously empty. no traffic from both of the way. i’m driving happily on the federal highway, obeying the speed limit when suddenly i felt a vibration on the car. wtf? an earthquake? that’s when i saw a damn learjet flew right above my car. i think it’s a class 40 learjet (crap, i do want one of those planes) with the flaps up and gear down ready to landing.

i panicked. all sorts of scenario playing in my brain. maybe i’ll crash into that plane or maybe i manage to stop at the side of the road. well i indeed stop my car at the side. when the plane already landed and stop, i come out from the car and start swearing. “what the hell is wrong with you people. this is the fucking highway not a damn airport. i could crash onto your plane”. the ‘hand gestures’ also played well with the swearing.

my wi-fi

a while ago, i am the only person on my neighbourhood to have a wireless internet connection. i even detected that there are some who tried to steal the connection. but of course, unsuccessfull thanks to the WPA. eventho’ it’s good to be the king that time, it is not a permanent spot. since there are many tech savvy out there, the number of wireless internet users in my area are increasing.

thus, the battle for the channel 6 on 2.4 Ghz has begun. it’s annoying when i restart my router and the wireless dosen’t work. right now i’m save on other channel but probably one day some jackass gonna steal that channel. maybe i have to jam all of my neighbours wi-fi. check this article out.

down

sorry for the downtime. my idiot webhosting didn’t tell me they’re changing the server’s IP. it’s okay now…i think

slower

streamyx got suckier day by day. it downs the mood of writing something. lol, i know, lame excuse for not having an idea. i’ll post something later…

decoding dream

takde apa pulak aku nak buat hari ni. boring. jadi aku copy paste artikel yang aku jumpe kat internet ni.

selamat hari sabtu.

We’ve all had that dream. The naked Nordic warrior princess, the ex-girlfriend, the woman with no face. Sexual dreams are part of living with testicles for men.

But guess what? These nighttime forays into fantasyland might mean a lot more psychologically than you’re giving them credit for.

Dreams are your mind’s way of exploring ideas, desires and fears that are too abstract, too disturbing or too overwhelming to think about during waking existence. And erotic dreams need not involve you in the hot tub with the Playboy bunnies. They can be symbolic references that make statements about your emotional and erotic states without being graphic.

The purpose of these dreams is to mentally act out fantasy thoughts so you’re not repressing them any longer. It’s extremely healthy, and necessary. It’s like your mind emptying out the trash.

bagai angin

yuhuu…aku kembali. kembalinya aku daripada camping kat port dickson. dapat jugak aku buat aktiviti outdoor. camping tepi pantai lagi tuh. mulanya aku ingat camping betul-betul kat dalam hutan, rupanya hampir-hampir kat hutan aje. siap ada tandas lagi. huhu. camping site tu betul-betul kat sebelah pantai. siap dengan barbeque set semua. jadi, malam-malam mesti terasa angin bayu. fuhh…syiok woo…

lepas briefing, aku bertolak dari ampang dengan kawan-kawan dalam pukul 7 lebih. time tu baru nak hujan. bincang itu ini, kereta aku disuruh angkut muatan 5 orang dengan barang ‘kargo’. bagak-bagak pulak tu yang naik kereta aku. ah sudah, ni bukannya jeep 4 wheel drive. aku baru aje buat balancing dengan alignment. habis seratus nak tukar chamber aje. tu belum masuk dengan absorber aku yang baru tukar sebulan lepas.

tengok dari luar, nampak macam kereta aku lowered gile. nak pegi drag race ke hape. mamat-mamat kereta bikin pun jeles tengok. lol. aku maintain 90km/h aje kat highway. nak speeding tak boleh sebab load berat sangat. aku takut daya brek takde. sampai kat camping site dalam pukul 9 malam. terus pasang khemah. nasib baik aku bawak khemah spare sebab budak-budak ni tak cukup khemah rupanya. apa la barang.

time nak tidur, aku terasa panas gile. jadi aku ajak sorang dua bentang tikar kat tepi pantai, pastu tidur kat situ. sekali sekala tidur dengan berbumbungkan bintang. mula-mula 2 orang aje yang berani nak, tapi akhirnya dekat 8 orang tidur kat situ. kira aku pasang khemah tapi tak tido dalam tu pun. khemah cuma tempat simpan barang. open air lagi syiok. setiap kali bangun pagi, terus mandi laut. mmm…sejuk.

tengah seronok lepak-lepak time tengahari, hujan turun. lebat gile. habis basah dalam khemah. aku sempat le jugak selamatkan barang-barang masukkan dalam kereta. lol. yang tido dalam kereta pun ada jugak. malamnye, kiterang buat barbeque. aku ada la jugak notice sesetengah group dalam camping ni tak reti buat kerja langsung. senang cerita, semua anak emak sesekor. aduh. aku tahule walaupun tak boleh masuk click, tapi sekurang-kurangnya mencuba. tolong ringankan beban. ini sesekor buat hal masing-masing. tak unity langsung.

ada satu masa tu, diorang ni tengah pasang dapur gas, nak masak air. tapi ntah pasang tak reti kut, teriba api sambar dapur gas dengan tin dia. semua mencicit lari tak pandang belakang dah. aku jugak yang nak kena pegi padamkan api. nasib baik tindak refleks aku cepat padamkan benda tu sebelum dia merebak. kalau tak dah mampos sekor-sekor. ape la barang diorang nih.

secara kesimpulannya, bolehla dikatakan trip camping ni seronok. cuma aku berharap, sifat kerjasama tu ada la. gilir-gilir sentry, cari kayu api, kemas kawasan khemah, etc. tak dapat le kalau nak mengharapkan orang lain je.

well uh…ada sapa yang minat aktiviti outdoor kat sini?

botak

yeh, aku nak menghilangkan diri selama tiga hari. saja nak get in touch with nature. sekali sekala pandang benda hijau ok jugak. masa tengah ready nak bersiap, baru aku sedar yang tayar kereta aku botak seperti kepala sami yang tengah berkumpul dalam perhimpunan. habis terkeluar threading besi dia. nasib aje aku tak mampos sebab tayar meletup, memandangkan aku bawak kereta macam orang gile.

nasib jugakla aku ada rm300 nak tukar tayar. lol. btw, gua pergi camping hari ni sampai hujung minggu. later…

database error lagi

hujung minggu lepas dan minggu-minggu sebelumnye aku menghilangkan diri. saja-saja je mengada. macam hujung minggu lepas aku lepak dengan memember aku, duk setup server, setting network, backup itu ini, etc. aler, kerja-kerja network admin lah. pening jugak kepala sebab tiga hari tidur tak cukup, makan tak kenyang, mandi pun basah (kalau tak basah, mandi kobau tu).

tengah beriye-iye nak restore data, sekali aku baru tersedar yang file database tak boleh bukak. ish ish ish…ape la nak jadi ni. kali ni database kat backup server aku pulak yang hilang. hilang seperti kentut dibawa angin. frust jugakla sebab kat situ ada kerja-kerja development aku sepanjang 2 tahun. fuh, syabas-syabas. database yang tak berguna pulak yang banyak simpan. ah, lantaklah. aku buat baru nanti.

moral untuk diri sendiri. backuplah data selalu. boleh, tapi kena beli hard disk baru. banyak gila kena backup ni. sampai 25gb…

missing

where i’d been? away i guess. being awol is hard. even when i changed my phone number, i still can’t hide. probably these guys have put something at my body. lo-jack, rfid or something. lol. anywhoo, of course, i’ve been busy. spending much time at myloca, cyberjaya lately. setting up some server. it sucks but what to do. it’s like being in a north pole there.

as you can see, there are some posts that i managed to recover. all in the glory of web archive and google cache. at least i got something. besides that, busy with the study and all. i got the exams dudes. plus tomorrow i willingly participate in a dikir barat project that my friends organize. when he say there’s nobody to join his project, i felt sorry for him. so, i help him by joining. duhh…

i think i still got my dikir barat skill and i think i had won some competition before this. no?

weird day

click for high res

it’s weird. i do e-mail tmnet a while ago, asking solutions for some problems with something but i don’t recall anyone from tmnet calling me. was i sleep-taking? or maybe that is some e-mail reply template. lol.

it’s also weird when somebody using this website for their case study. read em all here.
