Need info on rfid + tng usage

sqasi — Sun, 08 Jan 2023 08:50:52 +0800

hi all,
i'm planning to switch from smart tag to rfid for my travelling. i also purchase tng nfc card as a backup since my old tng is about to expired soon.
i'm not really familiar with this thing except for the basic thing so, i've some question :

1) if i enter the hway using rfid and during exit, failed to detect my rfid and forced to used tng card, what will happen? i'm aware that the notification that can't mix the usage for entry-exit. but if force (undetected during exit), what will happen?

2) do i need to link my tng card to my ewallet? if i link it to my ewallet, if somehow during exit the toll my rfid cant be detected, does scanning my tng card will deduct the amount from my ewallet as same with amount if i use rfid?

3) is that ok just reload the tng card offline (eg: at petrol station) and not link it to ewallet?

kindly advise accordingly, thank you in advance...

Bezza aircond not cold enough

sqasi — Sat, 08 Jan 2022 12:41:32 +0800

hi all,
recently i sent my 2016 bezza for service and also include service for aircond at SC. for aircond, they mention to do some oil changing, gas and cleaning the blower under the dashboard.
but after a week using the car, i feel the aircond performance still same as before servicing.

on normal sunny day, i've to switch the blower to "3" just for me to get the feel of cool air while the thermostate i put at 50%. i remember that last year, i still can feel cool air even with switching the blower to "2" and thermostate to 40%.
now, if i ride with my family, i need to switch to "4" + "60-70%".

what may go wrong? i just need some opinion before i reschedule checkup at SC for this matter.

thank you,

MySejahtera Reset Password

sqasi — Wed, 27 Oct 2021 12:29:38 +0800

hi all,
i reinstall mysejahtera apps on my phone yesterday but unfortunately i forgot the login password. when i try the option "forgot password" the submit button not giving any respond (able to tap, but no any respond). if i recall correctly, if we click submit, we'll receive SMS for resetting password (either OTP or link for reset passwor, i forgot).

i did submit questionaire thru their website and receive the respond email (autoreply, i believe) mentioning will respond my reply email within 5-7 working days.
is there any option to expedite this matter? since my work required me to travel alot and without the apps, i think quite troublesome to show the vax status and check-in..

btw, currently i check-in using web based check-in, but there's not vax status and no option for logout...

Underclock the GPU

sqasi — Mon, 21 Dec 2020 08:27:05 +0800

hi all,
recently, with my new rig, i start notice that my graphic card (Asus Geforce GTX 1660 OC), the cooling fan start to fully blast during playing game. i check the temp and it hoovering around 85 degree celcius. i do some googling and the term underclock or undervolt is required to lower the temperature if cleaning the fan is not work (yup, my gc fan is clean and case air flow is good).

so, 2 question :

1) does 85 degree celcius is considure normal during intensive (gaming) for my graphic card?
2) if i go for underclock/undervolt, does anyone can give some advise on this? yeah, probably using MSI Afterburner but how low the voltage i can set and still keep the card stable while lowering the temp around 75-80.

tq in advance
