1. I saw this malay kid, wearing a t-shirt with all chinese wordings there. It’s a club or something of a chinese school. How did he get to wear that t-shirt? Could be given by a chinese close friend, or maybe he studies in that school? Who know…. 2. During the ghost month festival, there […]

Arrghhhhh!! This happens rather frequently, caused by the release of a better and more bug-free Linux kernel. This is a good thing actually, but its side effect is exactly what this post is trying to solve. Your boot partition grows, and the next thing you know, you can’t upgrade to a newer version of the […]

I knew all along that there was a thing called RSS-feed. But little did I know that it would be that useful to keep in touch with my friends. Yup, RSS. Rich Site Summary. Sounds very simple really. A standardized XML format that is exposed to the outside world for all to see, and feed […]

Bird’s Nest – Is it worth it?

Posted: 3rd June 2009 by Jacky Yong in Computers

I got a chance to see what a real bird’s nest looks and taste like. Of course, this is not a photographic opportunity to be missed! Especially since this handful of bird’s nest already cost us RM50!

There, I’ve done it again. I have reapplied for P1 W1MAX, and I’m planning to keep it for good. I’ve had an earlier concern about the disconnection issue. Therefore I came up with a backup plan. I went to TM Point in Cyberjaya yesterday to downgrade my existing Streamyx package. I am currently subscribed to […]

P1 is here in Seri Kembangan!! The wait is finally over!! Now I can ditch that stupid Streamyx once and for all and switch over to a world of fast surfing! Or is there? 23rd March 2009 I had not intended to get it at first. I had wanted to go to Jusco Equine to […]

Easy. Use EXIFTOOL. Just install it and run from the command line this sentence: exiftool -tagsfromfile %d%f.CR2 -r -ext JPG dir where dir is the place where you store the RAW files and the JPEG file. Note that these two must be in the same location, else it wouldn’t work. If done correctly, it should […]

Why was I so ignorant not to use it before! Had I used this earlier, I wouldn’t have had so many headaches everytime I upgrade to the next version of WordPress! I have used WordPress Automatic Upgrade (WAU) for my upgrade from version 2.6 to 2.6.2, the latest version as of today. And boy was […]

I’m bored. Melaka is a place that I go to almost every time I go back to Sagil. Photographically speaking, I have also taken almost everything there is to be taken in Melaka. So I have decided to do something really drastic. High Dynamic Range imaging, or HDR as it is commonly known, is a […]
