Nothing particular

Ok it's been nearly two months here and I can say that I am really happy with the place and definitely the working environment. We have free coffees - lots of flavours, we have pantry (because my previous office doesnt), varieties of food stalls, very comfortable chair :) fast PCs but not fast enough, clean toilet complete with good hygiene, big musolla to sleep in :P, tight security, nice tag hehe, lots of foreigners, great teammates, lots of professional teams, good management and of course it's challenging here.

Age

Yeap I've been thinking about ages lately. About early people who get married at young age may live to see their children grow, work, and have their own families. About people who rarely talking to his parents, and imagining what they'll feel when the time is come for their parents to go. About which is more enjoyable between enjoying when we're singles or married. Yeah, i've been into many weird thinking lately.

Nik oh nik..

Nor Nikman is my housemate name, and he just forward me a link to an Utusan Online page. It is suppose to be a sad news, but I ROFLed =p because I just can't imagine he's working for a radio station. Here you know how geek he is.

Grrr...

From my 1 month Windows experience on a global company, Windows really sucks. I really want to say this hard - SUCKS.

Trend Yo'o

I kinda like this paragraph taken from More Ideas Than Time blog:

Starbucks is massive. People have totally gotten used to paying $2-$6 for a beverage. However, coffee is bad for you. And hot on the heels of the coffee trend is something diamtrically opposed to it: The all-natural-home-grown-organically-farmed-over-priced-but-we'll-still-buy-it-because-it's-supposed-to-be-good-for-you trend.

Yeah, I admit Starbucks' are too expensive. But it's the wireless Internet access that attracts me. Plus the sofa, calm atmosphere, power outlet and seeing beautiful people chit chating, a worth price to pay.

PS: kevler je yang beli kopi, aku bawak masuk slurpee 7e jek =p

Storage-mania!

Now they all connected to me, haha! Today's story - tire punctured, walk miles to an LRT station, camcoding like a tourist from indo, flashed a logo(refresh to replay) for a nearly half an hour for a new friend in a coffee shop timesquare, went into sony style and went out cursing it, shop and bargain like hell just for a 100pcs of blank dvds, tried out all sennheiser's headphones in one audio store in lowyat - bought one unexpectedly, stopped at the borders before headed home.

just a brief of myself at the moment

still up 5am in the morning, need to maintain my bodyclock, now in the mid of two weeks of night shift - crazy, stretching some ideas on a flash montage, got a few from templatemonster, using amri's headphone and suddenly thinking of getting one noise-cancelling headphone, looking through Bose site, nah they're pretty damn too expensive, sorting my itunes playlist between bit rate and sample rate, back and forth, found out all yui's song are in good quality, wisemen and whatgoesaround sounded clarified too, iwow srs plugin is cool, serving an excellent quality of sound, but it hogged half of my cpu utilization, affecting my flash process, so i had to open up a terminal and renice -20 -p 319, these set up higher priority for flash application, then mac pro came to mind, hoping for one, it'll cost nearly down payment for a new civic, but imagining using a quad core, freezes me - iwow,psd*,fcp*,flash bla bla lalala

psd=photoshop, fcp=finalcutpro

Saving default putty settings

I hope there is an easier way to save the default settings for Putty. Rather than have to write 'Default Settings' in the Saved Sessions textfield, and click Save. By the way, I use PortaPutty. Because it store saved sessions in a folder, not in the Windows Registry like what original Putty does. So you can store Putty on your thumbdrive.

Download Youtube Video

Two people asked me about downloading youtube video these pass two days. So here it is.

1. If you use Internet Explorer, forget it. Use Firefox.
2. Start Firefox, go to Tools menu, click Add-onns, click Get Extensions.
3. Then find VideoDownloader and click Install Now. After install, in order to make the new extension works, you have to restart firefox.
4. Go to the video page on youtube you want to download.
5. At the bottow-lower of the Firefox window, click on the small VideoDownloader icon.
6. Right click the Download Link button and save as whatevername.flv
7. You can play them with FLV Player or Media Player Classic K Lite Codec Pack.
8. For converting FLV to other format, I have my own way. For Windows, try Google ;)
