Domestic flight covid test

dlct87 — Thu, 25 Feb 2021 17:29:20 +0800

As per the title above, if I am required to travel by air (lets say from Kota Bharu to Kuala Lumpur), aside getting the permission letter from the police, do I also have to do a covid test prior to the flight?

Renovation for new unit (condo)

dlct87 — Sat, 06 Apr 2019 15:45:07 +0800

Don't know its appropriate to post here or not, but here it goes

I am a first time home owner, and although the unit i am interested to buy wont be complete for the next 3 years, i would still want to know about the below items so i have some expectations and directions on what to do when the unit is near completion in the future.

Usually how do we approach the renovation/interior design for a new unit that is just completed? Are there any service in Selangor/KL area where it will cover both interior design and the actual renovation contractor work?

Or usually we will have to find the designer ourselves, get the design and then find contractors on our own with the design blueprint ?

Samsung C24FG70 or Acer XB241H

dlct87 — Sat, 25 Mar 2017 21:44:11 +0800

tldr: C24FG70 or pay more for XB241H?

As per the title, i am now using a standard 60hz IPS monitor, looking to switch to 144hz one, so far I have narrow it down to 2 choices: Acer XB241H and Samsung C24FG70, with the Samsung one as my preferred choice because it is around 200-300 cheaper

I went to the store to look at the demo unit but unfortunately the display port of that demo unit was broken so I couldn't really compare the display quality, so should I go with it? Or shell out a few hundred bucks more to get the Acer one?

will PCI wifi card increases signal?

dlct87 — Sat, 28 May 2016 19:55:38 +0800

my room is the blue one, and the red circle is the router location, so would buying a PCI wifi card like the ASUS PCE-AC68 on my desktop will increase the signal strength? I would not want to use ethernet cable as it would need at least 15 meters (on ground alone) to reach the router

Laptop AC adapter light blinking

dlct87 — Wed, 29 Oct 2014 07:57:01 +0800

I am using an asus n53s laptop bought around 4 years ago, everything was working fine until 2 days ago it turn off after making a pop noice, the power adapter light is not on when plugged or unplugged from the laptop, and my laptop doesnt has battery block on at that time.

So i thought it was the adapter fault and bought a new one with same voltage, my laptop managed to power up as usual, however today when i woke up, it is turned off again and the adapter light is blinking faintly (plugged or unplugged from laptop)

What could be the problem now?
