App Clips

dinozilla — Thu, 22 Oct 2020 21:37:43 +0800

Since Apple shared about App Clips in WWDC2020, doesn't seems to notice much on any party using App Clips as of now...or just because MCO...I am out of touch...

Just curious if any of you actually used any of it so far out in public?

Switch from unifi to maxis fibre

dinozilla — Tue, 28 Jan 2020 18:35:46 +0800

Been with unifi from their bonanza promo, and since it’s ending and the plan I have is not with perpetual discount, I will be paying more for it, lowering the plan from 300 to 100 will extend another 24 months which is not what I intend for, hence considering a change.

Comparing on maxis fibre 100mbps, is it good in Sentul/Kepong area?
If intend for switch, is it possible to sign up for maxis and done install, before terminate unifi, or must terminate unifi first on the same premise?

Any advice? Thanks

[WTA]Wedding venue

dinozilla — Tue, 05 Apr 2016 18:02:50 +0800

Hi all,

I am having a wedding plan end of this year (Nov)
currently I already have my hometown wedding dinner settled for planning.
However, as I am also looking to consider for some other friends (e.g. Muslim, foreigner), who may not be convenient enough to invite to my hometown dinner (chinese-based, non-halal), hence is thinking of 2nd session if possible.

My wife is thinking of different from the usual dining type, so one of the idea perhaps is garden, or indoor-garden-deco type.
I believe this maybe very costly, as I can find from some already found, which is overshoot our budget...
(actually to say budget...its more towards is it a range we comfortable to chunk out for, as we don wish to overspend too much into wedding)

Is there any suggestion of venue?
We are looking at klang valley, most probably guest number is around 200-300.
Still cracking head for the 2nd 1 so would appreciate for advice...

Many thanks.

[WTA] choice to make for next car

dinozilla — Thu, 30 Apr 2015 08:06:45 +0800

I am currently driving a Honda City VTEC 2008 (old model with the CVT) which is coming to 7 soon.
Given my next life change, I am start seeking for my next option to succeeding it.
My preference has always been about efficiency, particularly fuel.
Hence when I jump from Myvi earlier, I picked City because it achieves similar or better FC than my Myvi back then.

At this stage, FC is still will be one of my consideration, then come with others like cost of maintenance, etc.
my requirement thus far:
1) better fuel saving than my current City (on average i m clocking 14.8KM/L)
2) price range of 90k+/-
3) Sedan is preferred (with the rear compartment storage space)
4) cost of maintenance is not rocket higher than current one

So my current choice that can be narrow to seems to have:
1) Honda Grace (if it ever make it here)
2) used Prius (it seems year 2012 model is now close to that price point)
3) new Honda City (though the gain in FC is not significant from my POV)

Love to see if there is more suggestion on other model which I can consider of?

My planned time of change would be from late this year to early/mid next year depending on my options, and availability of time and cash + trade-value of this old car.

Hope to get more sifu's opinion on this. Thanks.

[WTA]Need some advice on a camera bag

dinozilla — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 18:16:12 +0800

Hi guys,

I am currently using a Lowepro Rezo 190AW
packed with stuffs below:
1x Nikon D90 + grip
1x Nikon D60
1x Nikkor 18-200 3.5-5.6
1x Nikkor 50mm 1.8D
1x Sb-900
and others like additional Camera battery, flash battery, memory cards+reader, blower+cloth for cleaning

The current bag is pretty loaded with these, also tough to carry on one shoulder.

Considering that I am a frequent go-er, hence now looking at getting a backpack instead to replace this...

there is wish list of retiring the D60, then getting a used D700 and 70-200 in the future (not so soon), hence if the bag can be future-proof, it will be good, but if no, it can just live with 1 for now... (D60 will only on the go if necessary)

I had look through few bags (new+old), but not sure if they fit my gadgets above
Also since use it for travel, i m looking for those with weather cloth too...

currently shortlisted:
lowepro 400AW (if 2 camera), is it too big to hav now?
lowepro Primus AW (anyone used it?)

whether it can carry a laptop is optional, tot it is a plus point...

I find myself pretty clueless on selectingn a proper bag, so would appreciate u guys' help...many thanks.

[WTA]Where to find PSU for SFF PC

dinozilla — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 18:36:05 +0800

My mum's company given a SFF PC(HP for staff to deal with client business from home some years ago
recently a lightning strike hit close to house and damaged a lot stuff...including the PC....
after check thoroughly, only the PSU is affected...
the PC is no longer cover in warranty, and my mum did use it for personal usage also...she needs to restore the PC to get it work.
I know calling HP to get replacement is the easiest way, but might not the cheapest
hence would like to understand if there is other channel which I can get a source of that PSU

Hope anyone can share about or shed some knowledge if you know how.

Thanks in advance.

why pick-up truck is cheaper than normal sedan

dinozilla — Fri, 27 Nov 2009 08:53:05 +0800

while browsing through PaulTan.org, and reading the entry about Mitsubishi Triton

it caught my attention when it mentions the standard version(2.5L) costs about 77k

of coz both car is taxed with excise duty too....and i would never look at booklet on pick-up

jz wonder anyone can shed the light what makes it cheaper by so much?

spec? tax structure? production cost? technology used?

it might help to understand typically how many % of ppl are taking the iPhone, but not really intend to use for data, how many want it work with data

Selling ipod touch for iphone

dinozilla — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 23:49:16 +0800

Both device are so identical
with one serve as a portable MM device
one as a multi-function smartphone

is it justifiable for one who own either one of them, to sell and change to another?

share your thought then.
