Let the iPad bashing Begins?

So, Steve Jobs just announced the long awaited Apple tablet. As a golden rule of apple product naming, it was conveniently named iPad.


Eye candy, ain’t it?(and no, i din just take a pic of iPhone and put it there, it’s the real thing.)

I say it’s an over-sized iPhone. Why would i make that point, risking being mauled to death by zealotry apple fan boy?(well, not like there is anyone reading this)

It’s simple, being a huge gadget (9.56 * 7.47), it still can only runs 1 app at a time. Heard of something called multitasking, Apple? Not to mention it only feature a 1,024 x 768 pixel screen, wow, 1998 flash back.

Oh, it is worse than a iPhone in some way, it can’t take a photo or shoot a video, send a sms; and because of the feud between Apple and Adobe, it doesn;t support flash. Where i think it’s a dick move coming from apple. They have been making so much money from app store that they could never allow something like flash to exist in the magical realm of iphone.

Anyone hoping for iPhone OS 4.0 is going to be disappointed, it uses back the same OS as the iPhone which maked my over-sized iPhone point.

So, people who already own an iPhone , i would advise you just stick to it, since it is not that much difference at all.

I Owe It To The People Who I Do Not Love – a translation

i still want to
discuss something with you……

if the world ends,
return to nothingness

newborns went on
to the silent hill

dragging with them
the wings of thorn

the thorns touching the bloodlines

i wept,
as if i am the rain

to symbolize
a honest approval

would you
be willing to
runaway with me

to the outskirts
of the galaxy

and form
a unique
and disdainful
civilization

if
i am no longer able to
harvest the dreams

the longing for light,
the spacing of poem
and etcetra

worth the expectation
and the other sadness

makes me enter
the back of this
situation

i saw clearly
the fading of cities
like snows
goer abandon fading idea
bygone the act of kindness

as you pelt forward
with you head down,
made yourself along the way

all kinds of
possible reply

i too ,
raised my eyebrow

kept my proud
and restraint look

standing behind you
i knew that
the color of the water
has faded

thin rain has formed
around my eyelash

the last question
overturn every city wall

as the war flame are lit
and i know

there was once
a word
disambiguate
ever so richly

and only a status
could decipher

by Wisława Szymborska

「我虧欠那些，我不愛的人甚多。」───辛波絲卡

依舊想與你討論一個問題……

倘若天地崩毀，復歸洪荒
赤子們紛紛走上寂靜的高原
拖行羽翅般荊棘
荊棘撫摩血脈，我淚落如雨
以此象徵一種誠實的首肯
你是否願意
讓我們奔離於星系之外
獨成一種倨傲的文明

如果再也不能收割夢境
光的憧憬，詩的空隙與種種
值得期待和悲傷的其它
讓我走入此刻的背面
就清楚看見城市凋落如雪
行人拋擲垂敗的思想
捐棄良善的行為

而你頷首疾行，沿途錘鍊
各式可能的答覆
我亦斂眉，收束驕矜神情
在你身後聞知水色流散
眼睫泛起淺薄雨意
最後一個問題讓城牆盡皆傾覆
今日烽火燃起，而我知道
曾經有一種文字歧義豐饒
曾經只有一種身份能夠解讀

Hi,I’m a xx Major, and no, i don’t know/don’t want to yy your zz

My little sister wrote this post (“Yeah, I’m a psychology major…no, I can’t read your mind”)

This triggers a series of flashback on the occasion where i mention i am a Comp. Science major. People usually tell me something is wrong about their computer, and out of kindness, i would usually try my best to fix it. Sometimes it took me more then 15 min or even an hour when the problem is too severe to solve and needed a format. And when the comp got format, the trouble follows. People usually do not back up their file else where, they will blame you for losing their file. And the best part about fixing other’s computer? Priceless. I don’t mean the feeling is priceless, it is literally priceless. In a way that they do not pay you.

So yea, we often have that misconception about people who study on certain course. For me, i often think accounting majors keep all their spending in mind and was able to calculate the net loss of gain about something quickly.

And i think Electrical engineering major can fix your electrical appliances in no time.

And i think bio chemical majors can cultivate virus that will kill all of you in a blink of an eye.

And i think Medical Field Major majors could diagnose what is wrong with you and suggest the most appropriate solution in a short time.

And i always think public relation majors have that shield where they put up when they deal with people to make people more fond of them.

To put myself in their shoes, i would really think that people would rather not talk about what they major in or even what they do for a living. At least not the stereotype people gave them.

To end this post, would like to say this:

Hi,I’m a Computer Science Major, and no, i don’t know how/don’t want to fix your computer.

That’s it, I am boycotting F&N for life

Today, i was awaken by the sound of slogan chanting ice-cream truck, once i found out it is a magnolia ice-cream truck, i did what a geek would do:find their website on google and write an complain letter, following is my letter to them.

re: your company recent marketing campaign to selling off ice-cream at residency area.

As the campaign is going, it announces it presents using a loud speaker that repeat certain chanting about “come on, come on, look right up, discounted ice cream, sweet and nice, come and see” I have got to say, this totally change my view against the F&N company product forever.
The tactic you use is an ancient marketing strategy that tell people what you are selling by shouting it out as loud as possible, bravo. However, what the campaign designer did not have the mental capacity to consider is this. Today is the sunday, the holy day that Gods is resting and hence make it a sabbath, every body is probably resting and sleeping away in their sweet sweet dream. Broadcasting in a decibal level that is this high is unacceptable and is very very annoying. It certainly is the best example of what we called anti-marketing. Now i hate the product and of everything from this company with a deep, gut burning vengeance.
From now on, i vow to boycott your product for the rest of my life and will educate my children and their offspring to do the same.
And may i suggest you, the F&N company to terminate your employment with everyone who have to do with this marketing campaign. Considering the bad economy, it might sound as a cruel suggestion,, but i believe that they have no problem finding a job in the wet market or pasar malam.
Thank you.
From an Annoyed, irritate Resident who got waken up by mindless slogan chanting, rest-disturbing ice cream truck

 

Actually, i could just replace the whole letter with a simple fuck you but i think that wouldn’t get their attention since i imagine their suggestion box would be flooded with it right now. Just my wishful thinking.

Privileged II

Alright, it is official, it is the worst thing ever, and not just speaking about drama.
It IS the worst thing ever, period.
All, i mean ALL of the actor and actress suck at their job.
Worst possible acting ever.
Dry line, lack of sense of humor, bad music, and tons of other stuff is just plain wrong.
And the plot is the worst, the “problems” or “conflict” the character go through is just non-existent, for example:
“Uhh, i have too much money and i dunno how to spent it.”
“Ohh, my life sucks cause my employer give me a car and a gorgeous room for my job and i get paid 1500 per week.”
etc, etc, etc.
Worst possible storyline ever, it just centers around rich people and their petty non-existent problem.

I think this show could be used to substitute capital punishment, just strap people on a chair and make them watch it run over and over again for 48 hours. Wait, no, that would be too cruel, no one could ever done anything remotely as bad to deserve this punishment, not even Hitler, just go with lethal injection.

Privileged

Been watching this series about a girl who became a tutor to two of the rich grand daughter.

Technically speaking, i just finish half of the episode and i began to doze off and had a dream.

In my dream, she found the love of her life, and he falls for everyone around her, one at a time and finally he falls for her sister and screw her in front of her and while she is still on it.

Or, she could get everything she ever wanted and all at the same day , publish her book, got famous and then get stoned and spiked by angry mob who is pissed off because they spend their hard earned money to read her shallow piece of shit she called a book. She then spent the rest of her life in a hospital being fore fed human excrement everyday until the day she died.

And also, something really heavy falls on Rose and Sage while all the other horrific stuff is happening to Megan.

Well, it is actually not a dream, is just a wish my heart made.

GACC 2009 Day 1

GACC stands for Games Anime Comic Circle.
The one i went to is the one in MMU Melaka Campus. All the photo in this post is taken by Eu Hua, and shamelessly stolen by me. Check out his Gallery.

The Girl on the left is cosing as a Yuki Cross in Vampire Knight. When i see her, i was just astounded by her beauty, i was thinking, “wow, she is gotta be hottest girl in this convention despite the character she’s cosing as.”

Support叹

继上篇不成韵律的编程颂后，我朋友写了这个Support叹。

心思乱，工作满，连绵电话每每响，可叹夜短眠不长，恼起床前满惆怅.

真是一语道出了support的心酸，仿佛听到了空气中一声长长的叹息。

Roman Holiday

Love comedy featuring the legendary Audray Hepburn and Gregory Peck.

This is Audrey’s first appearance on the screen. For a new comer, she sure do perform really well. I did not understand why people always says that Audrey Hepburn is hot. Now i do, it is because she is such a graceful and elegant woman.

The movie is about a pricess’s visit to Rome and the story that happens during this visit. She’s been visiting Rome for  official stuff like visiting factory and improving trade relations, it was extremely boring so she escaped. And then she met a reporter/writer who was stranded (i believe) on Rome and so the story begins. It doesn’t end really well, but overall the movie is still enjoyable.
