And it will all be over. Just finished playing HL and am thinking of buying HL2 now and unencrypting it while I go exams and come back to see if I can play on my comp :P But maybe I’ll just go out tomorrow and buy the CD/DVD set depending on how much it is :P

Now this is nice stuff: HL2 modded case

What do you do when you want to use the dryer and somebody else’s clothes are still in it? If you don’t mind taking them out of the dryer and putting it in the basket you would right? And what do you do with the basket? Well I’ll tell you one thing NOT to do when the basket is those kinds with holes in them. You DO NOT PUT THE FREAKING BASKET ON THE FLOOR WHICH IS FREAKING WET!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some people are just plain stupid. Went to get my laundry and found out its all freaking wet again. Stupid stupid STUPID !*$&!*(&$!*($&!*($ !*( $! PEOPLE!!!!!

And now updating Windows after formatting. Using AutoPacther to install the updates between SP1 and SP2. And then I realised doesn’t SP2 take care of that? Stupid me as usual. Says 90min left… sigh…. Monk on at 1400 on Channel I. Currently I can surf without VPN and I’m not on the domain. \dc2
etlogonurt.bat did the trick. If thats the case maybe I won’t join the domain anymore if there’s no need to.

Anyway back to studying I guess. Hopefully no virus infections and no screw ups during updating.

Wireless Optical Mouse without Batteries!!!! Nice innovation by A4Tech. I used to use mice by them, there were pretty good in my opinion. ‘Problem’ is you need to use it on the special mousepad that is connected via USB. So if you want to clear the clutter of wires, this is of no use. I need to get rid of wires around my laptop. Too many. Get twisted and tangled far too often. But I’m too cheap to buy a wireless bluetooth mouse. **Hint Hint** for those who didnt get me anything for my birthday yesterday :P, or for a possible christmas gift :P Logitech‘s MX900… Logitech‘s MX900…
:P
Crap I should stop doing this. STUDY!!! FOCUS!!! Even though its on Monday STUDY!!! FOCUS!!! :P:P
*Hit myself on the forehead and goes to bed to study*

Microsoft Replaces Your Pirated Windows, For Free: I bet 95%+ of home users in Brunei would fall under this… :P
Good, bad, ugly?
Good: Get a FREE copy of Windows
Bad: Get a copy of WINDOWS :P
Ugly: Microsoft gaining more of a monopoly :|:”(

Good: Its ‘good’ for the consumer knowing the fact that there are legitimate and pirated software (I’m sure there are people who don’t know, those people are like as long as it runs and I can use it, I’m happy). Depending on how the shop charges them for the computer, the consumer could indeed be getting a copy of Windows for FREE (now thats good stuff).
Well in the public’s view it could make Microsoft have a better standing: giving away free software to the ‘unfortunate’.
Ugly: People abusing this and shops get closed down, leaving none / little computer shops left. People complaining about increased cost of bundled computers because they now have to pay for the OS.

I shouldnt be doing things like this. FOCUS and work dagnamit!!!

Poison applet peril affects IE, Opera and Firefox
So update your Java SDK/RE here

More Exploding Cellphones In The News: Strange… Though I like the segment that the MythBusters Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage did on exploding cell phones in regards to gas stations as seen from the excerpt taken here.

================================================================================
Episode 2: Cell Phone Destruction, Silicone Breasts, CD-ROM Shattering
In this episode, Jamie and Adam test several explosive theories. Can chatting on a cell phone while pumping gas cause the pump to blow up? Our mythbusters put themselves at risk so you don’t have to. They also put silicone breast implants to the test at high altitude. Will they burst under pressure? Finally, we’ll learn once and for all if high-speed CD-ROM players can really shatter a compact disc.
================================================================================
For those who have Starhub cable (programeme guide here) like people on campus (via NUSCAST) its on Discovery Channel on Friday 8pm, Saturday 2am, Sunday 6pm, Monday 8am, 4pm

MUST read for everyone using the Internet, especially those using IE
Major WWW server exploit by hackers
News: Major Exploit Underway…
Who Profits from Security Holes?

More reason to switch browsers NOW!!!!
Opera: highly recommended :D Especially for people who want more from a browser (flexible customizing, mail client, irc client)
Firefox: recommended for those who just want to ditch IE. To simplistic for me, but I think will be easiet to adjust for regular users
