Slow loading

Blindspot61 — Wed, 08 Nov 2017 20:29:38 +0800

Hi all,

Not sure if anyone of you having the same problem.

FB
Since about more than a week back, my FB is loading very slowly on my PC. (Smartphone no problem though).
When 1st start loading it takes a very long time to completely finished loading. And when strolling down, its slow in loading those post too.

You Tube.
Watching video from You Tube also having the same problem. Just like connecting to streamyx, kept on loading and loading. . . . Sigh . . .

Other than these two, the rest seems to be OK. Playing online game got no problem with the speed.

I am having unifi 10mbp.

Anyone have any solution for me will be very much appreciated.

Thank you Thank you.

Online Dog licensing

Blindspot61 — Wed, 26 Jul 2017 19:18:33 +0800

Hi all,

Need to check with dog owners regarding the issue I am having or rather I don't even have any clue what issues I am having.
Obviously I will have to pay a visit to the municipal for an explanation tomorrow but I am anxious to know if anyone facing the same issue and if its settled.

We used to visit the municipal to renew our dog license and recently was told that we need to renew online so we did.

We got our dog vaccinated, make the necessary copies of the document required and submitted online.

The following day, I check the status by logging into the website and found that the status of our renew application was 'Dikembalikan'

Reason given was;

Tempoh vaksinasi anjing telah tamat - (Our dog was vaccinated and the date was written on the vaccination card which we submitted online (scanned))
Kad vaksinasi tidak disertakan - (The vaccination card is also submitted online, front page, inside and the new additional card since the old one was fulled)
Gambar anjing tidak disertakan - (this also submitted)
Lokasi penempatan anjing di lokasi yang tidak dibenarkan - (we are staying in a double storey terrace house and we have been keeping the dog for the past 14 years (renewed the license personally with the municipal without fail))
Keluasan premis tidak mencukupi - (we kept only 1 dog and it had never been an issue. . .)
Lain-lain jika ada:
Tiada.

I checked back the application info online and everything is still there, those uploaded files

Seriously I don't have a clue as to why it is 'returned'

Anyone facing the same issue?

Thank you for your time.

Yellow Vented Bulbul chicks

Blindspot61 — Wed, 15 Mar 2017 15:19:42 +0800

Hi,
About 10 days ago, we save a pair of the above mentioned chicks from being eaten by crow.
My guess is they were about 3~5 days old before we take them in (together with their nest).
We intend to let them go once they are old enough to fly away and fend for themselves.

About 3 days ago, the chicks always get out from their nest (maybe they are growing and find the nest is a bit crowded), so we got a small branch and let them stand on it without any problem.

Yesterday, one of the chick (the bigger one) seems to eat less.
About a couple of hours ago, while feeding them, it fall off the branch which is about 10" high from the bottom of the basket that we put them, and I think it hurt itself. Now, it is less active then usual.

Will it heal itself or am I just worrying too much?

Thank you.

Unifi upgrade to 30mb question

Blindspot61 — Tue, 11 Oct 2016 16:16:27 +0800

Hi all

Is there any multiple user access problem (in a family) for 30mb unifi?

Or is there anyone facing any such problem?

My wife's colleague said he had the mentioned problem after upgrading from 10 to 30mb. It seems only he or 1 hphone can access while they rest is slower than before upgrading. Is it true?

Thank you

Trimming dog's toe nails

Blindspot61 — Tue, 23 Aug 2016 20:39:41 +0800

Hi All Sifu,

Need advise badly on this one.

2 days ago, my dog is having some problem with its toe nail and I think one of it is hurting her paw that causes her to limp slightly.

My dog don't like her paw to be touch, still at time I manage to trimmed her toe nail and it took awhile to get all the toe nails done.

This time around with one of her toe nail hurting her makes it more difficult for me to trim them and I am worry I might hurt her more and cannot do a good job.

I was wondering if there's any medication that can sedate her/put her to sleep so that I can trim those nail more efficiently.

I did googled to look for answer but it was a really mixed result, some saying not to do that while others did recommended some medication that can do the job without harming the pet.

I try bringing her to the vet but she is not cooperating to get into the car because of the pain on one of her paw.

Need opinion. Thank you in advance.

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

At what temperature consider

Blindspot61 — Sat, 02 Apr 2016 16:10:24 +0800

Hi All,

WTA. May I know at what temperature do we consider the car engine is over heating?

Most of the car temperature meter are dial gauge and it does not show what is the degree in Celsius.

Now I have a car that has a digital temperature meter. How do we know if the car is going to be over heat and have to be on alert?

Thank you all.

WTA. Am curious

Blindspot61 — Thu, 28 Jan 2016 11:37:38 +0800

Hi All,

I am just curious about this 'New Crop' thing about rice.

What does it mean by 'New crop' on rice?

Sometime you see them labelled on the bag of rice.

At time when I feel the rice taste different, someone will said 'oh, could be new crop'

Rice can be harvest only once right? Its not like, after harvesting the 1st time it can grow rice again. You need to replant from new grain again.

So by that logic, all rice sold are new crop, no?

Game play recording.

Blindspot61 — Mon, 25 Jan 2016 12:18:59 +0800

Hi Guys,

Can anyone help me out on this one.

I downloaded the free version of Open Broadcasting System software to record my gameplay (War Thunder).

It initially was working fine and I managed to record 8 game played.

But after that, It failed to record anymore (black screen when try playing back).

I didn't change any setting and I also tried google those problem but to no avail.

There are some good game played I wish to keep because whenever there's any update on the server, old replay stored in the server don't work anymore and I just don't want to lost those game play moment.

Hope someone can help me out before the developer update the game again.

Thank you Thank you and Thank you.

P.S. I try posting this under gaming section but there's no correct section/sub forum that I find applicable.

Other service center is not so convenient.

If yes, can someone recommend me 1 around SJ.

Thank you.
