high sound from other room

admin — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 18:21:54 +0000

Last night I noticed the high sound from the other room. Well, it’s not weekend yet, but it seemed like they are having fun. I shrugged a shoulder since it’s not bothersome from our room. After sometime, one of them knocked on the door and invited me to come over. I feel awkward to say no again as I’ve been turning them down for a lot of times already. I give in that night besides, it’s just the next room; I’m not going anywhere far.

I can say these guys just love music. They have guitar, microphone, keyboard, raven amps, and subwoofers and so on. Even if I can’t cope with them, I still enjoy watching as they are really having fun playing with the music equipment as if they are in the stage. Now I know what to give as a gift in special occasions that may require some gift giving.

everything is falling to place

Now, everything is falling to place. My future seems brighter and better as compared before. As if I can reach my goals in life if I will stay on track. Hopefully, that is really going to happen. It’s been a long time I’ve waited for this to happen. Then, here I am having the taste of my first ever salary from the profession I’ve worked so hard to get. The idea of having my dreaming house is no longer that bleak. I now have the confidence to say I can get it or I can buy it.

To be honest, I have so many ideals for my dream house, a pool or indoor pool with raypak heater, a nice lanai, beautiful garden with nice outdoor furniture, big kitchen, great master’s bedroom, a nice view and so on. I think reading a lot of home décor magazine influence me so much. But, I’m also aware of the possibilities that not all of this will happen. Eventually, when the time comes the design of the house will depend on the money although I will strive for the best.

Oh well, let’s just see what will really happen in a few years’ time.

New PlayStation 4 Powered by AMD

admin — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 06:28:40 +0000

Rumored manufacturer of choice for Sony’s new game console main processor and the GPU is American CPU maker AMD. Many of you would think that this is the first AMD-made chip in a game console, but that is not the case. It may be the first AMD-branded chip, but it’s definitely not the first time the AMD team has worked on a game console.

Twelve years ago, AMD’s graphics division ATI acquired a graphics chip design company called ArtX Inc. The team at ArtX is mainly responsible for the graphics processor used in Nintendo’s GameCube entertainment console. It was called Flipper and by 2002 ATI was already announcing the shipment of their 12 millionth GameCube GPU.

Flipper was a 162 MHz chip with 3MB of integrated 1T-SRAM, running at twice the core speed. This memory was split into two parts: 1 MB for texture buffer and 2 MB for the frame buffer, both being clocked at 324 MHz. The chip was built using 180nm manufacturing technology and had four pixel pipelines with one TMU per pipe. The memory bandwidth was at a maximum of 10.4 GB/s and the frame buffer peaked at 7.6 GB/s.

Three years later, ATI was designated to upgrade their Flipper GPU and to offer a new generation of graphics performance for the 2006 introduction of Nintendo’s Wii game console. The resulting solution was called Hollywood. Flipper was a 162 MHz chip with 3MB of integrated 1T-SRAM, running at twice the core speed.

Apple Says Samsung Ignoring Court Order

Over the years Apple and Samsung have been suing each other over their products, but now they are suing each other over the reactions to said attacks, or lack thereof. Apple was the one who started it all and now it is making things continue onwards, despite the grumblings of either side. What it is trying to do is make it impossible for Samsung to use certain source code as evidence in the trial.

Some time ago, the federal court in San Jose, California issued a court order that demanded Samsung to let Apple examine its source code for the products under litigation. The deadline was December 31, but Samsung complied for only one of the consumer electronics devices. It is this that Apple is now trying to use in court: since Samsung didn’t comply with the order, it should not be allowed to use as evidence the source code that it failed to hand over.

The Cupertino company says that even if Samsung finally provided all the code now, there would not be enough time to build a case from it, since expert reports are due in less than two weeks. Apple and Samsung used to be very good friends until late 2011, when the former sued the latter over the Galaxy Tab 10.1. After a period when the item was banned in Australia, the injunction was lifted and the war started in earnest. Apple had already filed similar lawsuits in Germany and the Netherlands by then, prompting Samsung to retaliate with some 3G lawsuits of its own.

In the meantime, Samsung designed a new tablet for Germany (Galaxy Tab 10.1N) and continued to dispute its rival’s claims, even throwing jabs at it in commercials.

regret I don’t have music gadget with me

admin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 08:46:09 +0000

I’ve been staying here in Kish, Iran for more almost two weeks now. It’s indeed boring as wifey isn’t with me. But, I have to endure this loneliness by enjoying myself with the company of other people. Don’t get me wrong I’m only with guys here because ladies and men aren’t allowed to be together when not married. Sometimes, the guys also aren’t in the mood to hang out, which makes life here even more boring.

I actually regret not bringing any gadgets with me. I intentionally left my laptop at home as well as any music device 8g ipod nano or mp3 player, thinking that I will return immediately. Unfortunately, days have passed and problems arise. It’s really better to have those devices around because it can indeed entertain me in some ways especially when the guys aren’t in the mood hanging out with me. But, it’s too late now so I will not make the same mistake again in the future.

yoyo for my nephew

admin — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 21:19:57 +0000

My nephews are growing really quick. I used to remember them as babies and now while looking at my sister’s photos I’m quite amaze of how big they became. Time indeed fly so fast, it was just yesterday when I carry them and change their diapers. But, now they are both playing yoyo toys, which I also played during my younger years.

I’m not sure if I can still play it now. My fingers are no longer slim like before and my reflexes aren’t that good as well. Growing old isn’t always advantageous, right? Anyway, since I already know they can now play yoyo might as well give them both. I’m thinking what to give them as present not for any occasion, but as present from uncle. They used to ask me whenever I drop by, but I always bring food that time because I’m not sure what to give. Yoyo is a nice idea and I will use it the next time I will visit.

wish him all the best in his endeavor

Last December 17, one of my cousins arrived and stayed in my aunt’s house. Just like me he also holds a tourist visa with the intention of finding a job. The only difference is that his visa is valid for three months while mine before is only valid for two months. So, he has three months to find a job, but for sure time passes easily.

I remember I spend at least four months before one company gave me a job offer. That’s why all of us feel like helping him get a job before his tourist visa expires. Luckily, brother said there is baggage porter jobs available in the airport his working with. It’s already a great opportunity to begin with. But, we still need to wait for brother’s arrival because he is in a four day straight 12 hour shift. Then, we will find out what will happen and the next step my cousin needs to do. I hope him all the best in his endeavor.

experiencing zero visibility, excites and frightened me

admin — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 18:01:38 +0000

I’m both surprised and amazed when I wake up this morning seeing a thick fog outside. It’s indeed the first time I’m experiencing zero visibility, which both excites me and frightened me. I’m excited because at last I will have firsthand experience. We don’t have this kind of weather in our home country. But, I’m also scared because I will be going to work with that thick fog on my way. It is dangerous to drive in foggy condition especially on zero visibility.

Anyway, I was able to get on and off the bus safe and sound. But, I feel a little cold while in transit and a little wet as well. I should have listened to wifey and gear myself up. When I get home, I instantly check RockyMountainTrail.com marmot jackets. I should at least have a jacket that is made for harsh weather. Marmot’s improved waterproof and breathable coating provides Dry Touch comfort and is more durable than ever. With this I won’t have to worry over getting wet on a foggy day.
