Instagram on Symbian

TechnoG — Sat, 31 Aug 2013 00:54:08 +0800

Apparently, Instagram is a big deal and very popular in the mobile world, but as ever, the cynic in me asks why anyone would want to take a lovely 5MP or 8MP Nokia-shot photo and only share it as a heavily filtered ultra-low-res VGA square thumbnail? But if this sounds like something you want to try then we did note the appearance in the Nokia Store of Instagraph Uploader. Just don't get your hopes up too high....

From the description on the Nokia Store:

Upload and share your pictures to Instagram directly from your device. The only unofficial Instagram client on the market that let you share your pictures to all your Instagram followers.

Main features (4.0.1.6):

account creation
sign in on Instagram
select a picture from your albums
add @your #tags
change profile picture
check the status of any image upload on the history page.

Here are a few screens of Instagraph Uploader in action:

Many thanks to 'prototipo' for their assistance in compiling this news item. As prototipo notes to me, a commercial rate £3 for this ultra basic uploader is somewhat outrageous [though see the developer's comments below in Disqus]. One can only hope that the developer will upgrade the utility, and quickly. In its defense, are there any other ways to upload photos to Instagram? Comments and suggestions welcome!
http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/flow/item/1..._for_Instag.php

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

well currently quite a few features are missing, ie picture preview, geo-tagging etc
anyway hopefully the dev team can come up with further updates to enhance the Instagram experience on Symbian platform.

RM6 in Ovi Store.

Complain - PlatinumPrint

TechnoG — Thu, 01 Aug 2013 18:17:24 +0800

Forumer you are complaining against: PlatinumPrint

Item being sold/bought:Used his printing service to get some tees done.

Original thread link: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2477972&hl=

Details of the complaint :
This fler is a real joker honestly. Can't keep his promises and deliver defective shirts that is no different than garbage.

just gonna summarise everything.
1) Enquired about his services and came to show some demo shirts, looks trustable and agreed to use his services.
2) After a delay of a few days, delivered the shirts. I ordered 10, and he said he dont have enough stock for 2 so he can only deliver 8 pieces (WTF?). I'm fine with it anyway, so I just said he can deliver both of that on a later date.
3) Went home and to my horror, all the shirts are stained. Looks like it have been taken out of an art studio with rainbow ish stains around the shirts, and some comes with yellow sweat stains around the neckline. Not to mention for the male shirts he did not use the shirts during the demo.
4) Not to mention he forgot to print the back as per requested and paid. (again WTF?)
5) Promised to take it back and clean the stains off and also print the back.
6) 3rd meet up, decided to postpone till 2 hours later when I reached the place.
7) Got back the shirts a week later, and the bloody stains are still there. Pretty obvious the back heat press printing is done sloppily because of wrinkles everywhere
8) 6 out of 8 shirts are rendered useless.
9) Because it is a pre order thing, I refunded everyone because no one wants to accept it.
10) Im still a student and I used up my 2 months allowance just to pay up for his f***ed up mistakes.
11) Pressing for a refund and he refused to do so, and Im only asking for 50% from each shirt mind you.

anyway, just beware using their services if you're really looking to print your shirts.

TechnoG — Sun, 10 Mar 2013 23:30:15 +0800

Forumer you are complaining against: CEX

Item being sold/bought: Seasonic X-750W

Original thread link: Inbox.

Date of transaction: 1st September 2012

Details of the complaint : promised to return my PSU after RMA but still haven't receive it yet.

Okay, first of all I would like to mention that I do not like ruining people's reputation online, especially sellers. I dont wish to tarnish any of CEX's reputation, but I just want him to clarify once and for all one where the hell is my PSU.

Imma just post a summarized version here, I don't think anyone would want to read some tl;dr crap anyway.
1) posted my Seasonic X-750W to CEX on 7th September '12.
2) dragged till 30th November '12 when he told me my PSU is ready.
4) almost 5 months later, gave me a city link tracking number that apparently doesn't work. You can try it out yourself, 060301500974358
5) me is sad.

I'm living off on somebody's PSU atm, and do note that I did not bug CEX by raping his inbox or anything. I just want to clarify certain issues like why did he take so long.
haven't seen my PSU for liek months.

p/s: I was looking for a new monitor and shat brix when I saw this thread about CEX.

[Review] Noctua NH-D14

TechnoG — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 18:39:08 +0800

Overview
I guess most of you guys are familiar with the legendary cooler right? Touted as one of the best air coolers you can get. Well, the huge Godzilla size and maroon brown-ish colour is one of the famous ‘signature’ identity of NH-D14. Noctua products officially arrived here in Malaysia few months ago, 3 months plus if I’m not mistaken.

Unboxing
The box.

Neatly packed into 3 segments, mainly the heatsink itself, one box with the accessories and one empty box.

Basically the box that contains the accessories is pretty simple, 1 mounting kit for Intel(LGA1366, LGA1156, LGA775) and AMD(AMD AM2, AM2+, AM3) platform, manual for both of that platform and finally a bag labelled as Common Parts.

This is what you’ll find in the Common Parts bag,
• 1x NF-P14 premium fan
• 1x NF-P12 premium fan
• 2x Ultra-Low-Noise Adaptor (U.L.N.A.)
• Y-Split Cable
• 4x Vibration-Compensators (for using NF-P12 as case fan)
• 4x Fan screws (for using NF-P12 as case fan)
• NT-H1 high-grade thermal compound
• SecuFirm2 Mounting Kits
• Noctua Metal Case-Badge

And this is what you get when opening the biggest box.

tadahh, the omgpwnbbq HSF!

Well, how irony, no copper base? Looks something more like those WC CPU blocks, nickel plating material. Fear not, the base is actually made from copper, same goes with the heatpipes. I must admit that the base is uber flat, but sadly it is not mirror finished.

Rough idea of the size and weight,

• Height (without fan) 160 mm
• Width (without fan) 140 mm
• Depth (without fan) 130 mm
• Height (with fan) 160 mm
• Width (with fan) 140 mm
• Depth (with fan) 158 mm
• Weight (without fan) 900 g
• Weight (with fan) 1070/1240* g

Although this HSF looks huge, heavy and badass, but it can fit tall RAMs like Dominator, provided that you remove the fins.

It’s pretty cool of Noctua to give the users a first-hand sight on whether the HSF will fit the motherboard. To check it, refer to this link http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=compati...ts_id=34&lng=en

MCA alarmed over Bible teacher’s transfer

QUOTE

KUALA LUMPUR: The immediate transfer of SMK Damansara Jaya’s senior assistant-cum-acting head apparently due to her role in teaching Bible Knowledge to the school’s Form Five students is alarming, said MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek.

Ruth Cheah Kah Yok, who taught at the school for almost 25 years and was transferred out early this month, had been teaching students who had registered to sit for the SPM Bible Knowledge exam this year.

Cheah took over the responsibility from a teacher who had left the school, Dr Chua said, describing her transfer as unjustifiable, uncalled for and high-handed.

“The transfer has affected the fifth formers’ preparations for the SPM Bible Knowledge paper, “ he said, pointing out that the paper was a legitimate SPM paper set by the Education Ministry, and the marks counted towards the overall SPM score of the students.

“MCA wants the Education Ministry to intervene and rectify the matter, and rescind the transfer order so that Cheah may continue teaching and the students may continue learning the SPM Bible Knowledge subject unimpeded and without stress,” Dr Chua said after chairing the MCA central committee meeting yesterday.

MCA Youth chief and Deputy Education Minister Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong said he was waiting for a report on the transfer from the ministry’s director-general Datuk Abdul Ghafar Mahmud.

Dr Wee said he had asked for the report a few days ago and he wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.

MSI HD6850 Cyclone Power Edition /OC Review

TechnoG — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 19:24:54 +0800

Overview
Ever since the release of AMD Radeon HD 6800(Barts) cards a few months back, it is not surprising to see most sub-vendors coming out with overclocked models that are slowly emerging from the market day by day. Now, we’ll take a look on the MSI HD6850 Cyclone. The first thing that will capture your attention is the spiral like shape Cyclone heatpipe-based cooler. This GPU cooler is one of MSI’s most famous and popular non-reference cooler that have been used by MSI in most of the OCed cards in the past.

Power Edition Architecture
The MSI R6850 Cyclone is the first AMD Radeon HD6850-based GPU supporting triple over-voltage function. With the MSI-exclusive OC software, Afterburner, users can easily adjust the voltage of the GPU, RAM and VDDCI. If compared to other GPU of the same model level, this card definitely has more OC potential. Additionally, the MSI R6850 Cyclone is equipped with a more robust power system compared to other graphic cards of the same level. When compared with the reference design, the 6+1 power system can enhance OC stability and unleash the full potential of the graphic card.

MSI P/S Switch Function
With the P/S Switch, power users can switch from Performance Mode, which provides best cooling demand or Silent Mode, which balances noise and GPU temperature to meet their needs at different times.

SATA HDD failed to be detected.

TechnoG — Sat, 01 Jan 2011 00:41:41 +0800

I've run out of ideas what to do with it so I guess I will just get input from you guys.

On Monday, my HDD was fine and I stupidly reformat it because I suspect there is some problem with the driver of my new HD6850. After reformatting it, I got a new WD Blue and installed my OS into it.
When the WD Blue is in, the Samsung HDD seems to be not working(not vibrating, spinning etc.) At first, I didn't care much about it since I'm pretty satisfied with my WD Blue and did some test with it.

Today, I was planning to transfer my OS back into the Samsung HDD and it's not even detected in BIOS, neither in the OS installation. When I place my hand on it, I don't even feel anything, more like some dead piece of crap. I changed the ports, cables and tweak the BIOS for the entire day, and HELL, nothing happened

do I really have to send it to RMA?
