For the first time, the scene of a leopard savaging a crocodile is captured on camera. It’s interesting how these two great predator got into a fight and how the leopard bring the crocodile down. Too bad there’s no video of it, just pictures at Telegraph.co.uk.

I was thinking if the speed of WiMAX is comparable or even greater than Streamyx, there is no reason to still stay with Streamyx, provided WiMAX’s coverage is great. I am paying RM88 a month subscribing to Streamyx 1Mbps currently, in which I will already be happy if I can get half of that speed for international connection. Today’s joke:

Speed test, KL-NY (Streamyx)

Not to mention that P2P traffic are throttled by Streamyx and their unhelpful customer service operator. If WiMAX can make it the same price but with better speed (it can be still 1Mbps as long as it is really providing that much, unlike Streamyx’s 1Mbps which cannot even provide half of the speed subscribed), good coverage, and lastly a helpful customer service. Click here to check out how frustrated a Streamyx user can be.

Heck, I would even pay more than RM88 if WiMAX can provide the above mentioned criteria after a second thought. This is when you can convert your money into less stress and save more time (slow connection causes stress indirectly and of course, time is being wasted). How much are you willing to pay for WiMAX?

What’s wrong? Not happy for being tied up? This is definitely a thing that looks cute when it’s depressed.

Woops! Looks like I have forgotten about the blog’s 2nd anniversary. The 1st anniversary was posted on 14th of June 2007, but I suppose the date is not correct since the first post on this blog was dated 29th of June. The previous anniversary was celebrated earlier due to the host changing conflict in the past which lost some earlier posts.

To make things easier, the anniversary date will be the date of the first post of this blog now, which is 29th of June. Feed subscribers has grown from last year’s 100+ to today’s 600+, while the total unique visitors increases from 200,000+ to almost 1.3 million. That’s a big jump and something worth mentioning.

Wishing to see more growth in the following year. Happy belated birthday D

I thought things like this will only be in games and never in real life, but looks like I’m wrong. In Somalia, 80% of the men own guns for protection. It’s just like another necessity there. Glad that I’m far away from that place.

This is my new workstation which I have finish setting two days back. Nothing fancy, just a middle-end laptop (Inspiron 1720)with an old mouse and a cheap headset. Bear with the kiddy curtain behind, that was a choice of mine 10+ years back. In fact the table and chair are probably around 10 years old too, but is still working fine though.

I am not making any typo on the title of this post. In World of World of Warcraft, you get to control a character who is playing WOW on his computer. You get to see his screen and control his control over his WOW character. It’s kinda fun to see people saying the lengthy title — the World of World of Warcraft.

World of World of Warcraft

I started thinking how it looks like to have a World of World of World of Warcraft, playing a character who is playing another character who is playing a character in WOW. One video after the jump.

Here’s the challenge—be able to learn the shirt folding technique taught in the video with just a single play. I bet most will need to replay the video for a few times before even realizing she is actually folding a tee.
