When Connections Are Bad, They’re Bad

Can you remember a time when you needed to download something from the website and you were just staring at the estimated time left for the document to be downloaded?

Especially when the loading bar reached 99%… and the stupid internet connection gets disrupted.

We bet this is what you look like when that happens.

Sometimes, you even caught yourself pleading or making promises at the loading bar! Like, “OMG, there’s only another 5% left, if you reach 100%, I will never curse you ever again, I’ll even polish you!” Yeah, like it’s going to respond to your emotions and hurry up just to please you. Good try though, buddy.

Or perhaps, when you are studying abroad and you need to call your parents on Skype and the line is just horrendous. The call gets through, and you spend the next ten minutes saying “Hello, can you hear me?”. You try a few more times, saying hello. 10 minutes, now 30 – all your precious time wasted.

Anyway, fear not folks, we will share some tips on how to improve your internet speed.

5 fabulous natural places to visit in East Malaysia

Much of East Malaysia on the island of Borneo was once covered by natural vegetation like lowland rainforest, montane forests at high altitudes, and mangroves along the coasts. Many natural areas still remain today, and most are reasonably accessible, but in some cases do require long road or river journeys.

Here are five fabulous natural places to put on your list of East Malaysian travel destinations.

1. Bako National Park, Sarawak

One of Sarawak’s smallest national parks (just 2,727ha) punches way above its weight class in terms of wildlife. Located 37km from the Sarawak capital of Kuching, Bako supports stands of most plant communities found in the state with mixed dipterocarp forest, mangrove forest (where it’s possible to see Proboscis Monkeys), grasslands, peat swamp forest, and a very unusual kerangas, or heath forest, where pitcher plants thrive in the nutrient-depleted soil.

There are a dozen trails to walk, from a few hundred metres to several kilometres in length and overnighting in basic park accommodations is an option, though most visitors return to Kuching and stay in hotels such as the Pullman Kuching.

Kids, do you know what this is?

Before Spotify, people used to drive around listening to music on this relic, the car stereo.

Collectors and music fans wearing the T-shirts of obscure rock bands brave the tropical heat outside a record store near Malaysia’s capital, Kuala Lumpur, waiting to get their hands on new cassette tapes.

No, this isn’t a flashback to the 1980s, but an event marking recent International Cassette Store Day, an annual celebration of a music format once thought headed for extinction but now enjoying a rebirth.

Vinyl’s renaissance is well-documented and now it seems cassettes are rising from the grave, with artists such as Kanye West and Justin Bieber releasing songs on tape.

In South-East Asia low production costs and a retro-cool image have made cassettes an underground-music fixture, especially for struggling bands getting their name out.

“Cassettes are our best sellers,” Mohammad Radzi Jasni, owner of the store, Teenage Head Records, said after shoving one by Singaporean surf-punk band Force Vomit into a bulky tape player.

“They are still the best way to discover new bands here. It’s very affordable for the guys releasing it and the fans buying them,” he added.

Manufacturing costs can be as low as RM4 per tape in Malaysia, compared to RM60 to RM80 for a vinyl record. Vinyl’s cost is a hurdle for young bands and DIY labels in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines.

Perlu Atau Ingin?

Keperluan atau keinginan? Ungkapan ini yang sering terlintas di fikiran apabila melihat barang yang disukai di pusat membeli-belah. Perasaan tertarik dan keinginan untuk memiliki mendorong diri untuk membeli. Ia perkara biasa yang dilalui oleh semua orang. Ramai orang mempunyai wang, tetapi yang membezakan anda dengan orang lain adalah jumlah wang yang dimiliki dan cara wang itu disalurkan.

Perkara asas yang diajar ketika kita masih kecil jika mempunyai wang adalah untuk menabung. Sesungguhnya ia amalan yang amat berguna untuk masa hadapan. Ramai golongan muda masa kini gemar menghabiskan wang mengikut nafsu seperti membeli barang-barang yang bukan keperluan sehingga tiada duit simpanan. Ini menjadi masalah besar kelak ketika duit yang benar-benar diperlukan untuk tujuan yang lebih penting seperti berkahwin dan membeli rumah tidak mencukupi. Sebagai contoh, seorang lelaki yang baru mendapat kerja dengan gaji RM2,700 ingin membeli kereta buatan luar negara dengan harga hampir mencecah RM100,000, sedangkan dia dah ada kereta buatan tempatan yang masih berfungsi dengan baik. Jika dilihat secara realiti, memang tiada salahnya membeli kereta baru, tetapi dia tidak PERLU membeli kereta itu sebenarnya.

The Hacker Search Engine “Shodan” is the Scariest Search Engine on Internet

Launched in 2009, Shodan is more of a prying eye across the world through the IoT rather than just a simple search engine. John Matherly, its creator, named his project after the villainous computer in the video game System Shock. As in present, Shodan is living up to his name. Already designated as ‘world’s scariest search engine’, it is commonly called the hacker search engine.

Shodan shows you what Google doesn’t. Designed with an aim to link all the devices connected to the Internet, it took no time to become a play zone for hackers and experimenters. Shodan works by collecting and stacking HTTP addresses from various devices linked over the Internet across the world. The indexing is done on the basis such as country, OS and brand.

Malaysia is world’s second most expensive country to buy cars

Due to the unique structure on how cars in Malaysia is priced, there's no doubt that Malaysians fork a lot of money and a longer loan duration in order to purchase a car. Many people thought Malaysia is the most expensive country on this planet to buy a car, and worse, we need cars to travel around since the public transport is still at abysmal state.

Sucks to be a Malaysian car buyer? Think again

Najib’s the man to cure us of all ills

The commander in chief will not let the Malays become bangsat.

Last Sunday, Malaysians woke up to a beautiful morning, but of course expected the day to be spoiled by more ridiculous statements and incredulous claims from one or more of the Cabinet members. And we were not disappointed.

Speaking at the joint opening of the delegates meetings of the Padang Besar, Kangar, and Arau Umno divisions, the mighty leader of the most democratic, most prosperous, most intelligent, best staffed government in all of South East Asia proclaimed that if Umno fell in the next GE, the Malays would become “bangsat” in their own country.

“Bangsat” is a rich word that can be used as a noun or an adjective. It can translate into “low, mean and dirty” or “felon” or “scoundrel.” Najib probably used it for “outcast” or “destitute” or both.

PKR dan Yahudi

Kekawan semua sila lihat gambar dua orang tua ini. Agaknya siapa dua orang tua ini? Handsome juga. Sudah tentu bukan atok bebudak IQ 3.85 itu.

Orang tua dalam gambar ini adalah Marcus Goldman dan Samuel Sachs (kiri atau kanan saya tak pasti, sebab depa semua "look alike" kan?)

Mereka berdua ini adalah orang Yahudi dan pengasas bank Goldman Sachs yang telah membolot US$500 Juta (RM2 BELIYON) duit kita. 

Bank Goldman Sachs telah dilantik oleh Penasihat ulung 1MDB untuk bantu 1MDB meminjam duit US Dollar berbeliyon-beliyon untuk entah apa sebab. 

Atas bantuan bank Yahudi Goldman Sachs ini entah untuk apa sebab, Penasihat ulung 1MDB telah membayar bank Yahudi Goldman Sachs yuran US$500 Juta atau RM2 BELIYON. Kita masih kurang jelas untuk apa sebab.

A "Vote of No Confidence" is very Islamic

I am a little confused here. Just the other day Harussani the mufti of Perak said that we cannot use intellect and logic when discussing religious issues.

Folks I agree 100% with Harussani. When discussing religion, you really have to leave your intellect and logic behind.

Being a mufti, everything he says has something to do with religion - in one way or another. So here is another set of statements by Harussani. This is taken from FMT.

My comments in blue. 

Perak Mufti: It is forbidden to topple the government

August 20, 2015

IPOH : The Mufti of Perak Harussani Zakaria said the act of toppling the government is forbidden because it is not found in Islamic teachings. 

Agreed. However changing a criminal gomen or an abusive and repressive gomen through the voting process is incumbent on all Muslims. A Vote of No Confidence is very Islamic because it follows the well laid down legal and administrative process through syura or majority consensus of Parliament. A Vote of No Confidence is a syura or consensus.
