Cost to replace tempered glass on oven/microwave?

aMer — Sun, 08 Jan 2017 21:03:56 +0800

Curious to know if anyone has any experience replacing broken glass door on oven/microwave? I believe it uses a thick tempered glass rather than normal glass, which means it is probably harder to come by at any glass shop.

Hypothetically speaking, if someone falls on railway track at train station in Malaysia when a fast approaching train is imminent and you jump to her/his rescue by rolling her/his body underneath the train, under which of these trains she/he'll remain in one piece and make it alive assuming she/he remains not moving when the train runs over her/him?

Intercity KTM? Komuter? Putra? Star? Monorail?

My chat with tunetalk live chat support

aMer — Tue, 18 Sep 2012 17:42:50 +0800

So /k/ I contacted tunetalk live chat support today to inquire about their network coverage cause I couldn't seem to find their network coverage map on their site. I was pretty disappointed with the agent's answer and the way (s)he replied gave me the impression that it was a canned response by a bot..then my curiosity got the better of me

Anyone watched Cold Fish?

aMer — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 12:17:47 +0800

Have you guys seen this movie? I saw someone mentioned this movie in /k/ the other day. You know how batshit insane jap movies can be sometimes so I got curious about it, looked it up and download the movie.

I'm half way through watching this movie. Can't help noticing that the story line has a lot of shocking and striking resemblances to the murder case of Sosilawati

Does anyone know a mod for vBulletin 4 that can filter and show all posts in a thread by a particular user only? Something akin to Lowyat's "Show posts by this member only". I tried searching for that on vB official forum but nothing relevant came up.

Auto image resizer for viewing topics

aMer — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 11:30:12 +0800

I've always seen you /k/upitard scorning at people who post large images that break the forum layout in your browser, so I thought of sharing a greasemonkey script that auto resizes those images based on your screen resolution. This will also work for images inside spoilers

Firefox users, you need to install Monyetgris addon first.
Chrome - You're good to go.
Opera - Same as Chrome but refer to this guide on how to load the greasemonkey script

Now go this link and click on the green Install button on upper right of your screen

Server connection dies randonly

aMer — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 10:01:54 +0800

Hello. I don't know where this should go, hope I'm posting in the right section.

I've just recently relocated my server box to AIMS and I started to notice a problem with intermittent connection that seems to happen pretty regularly around the clock. The connection would totally drop for a brief 2-3 seconds before it reconnects back afterwards. I have a couple of game servers on that box so this is something that I really want to avoid. Every time this issue occurs, it always results in the server being perceived as totally freeze and halts all players actions in the game, thus disrupting their game play. I've been getting reports that this seems to affect people on multiple ISP's from both Malaysia and Singapore, not just TM's.

How do you usually deal with this sort of problem? Narrowing down the node where this issue origins can probably be done with continuous traceroute monitoring but getting the involved parties like user's ISP or server's upstream provider to acknowledge the issue and look into it doesn't sound as easy.

Issue with Youtube embed code

aMer — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 23:33:16 +0800

Hi. I figure you might want to replace the current embed code in your youtube tag with the latest code that youtube provides. Apparently the embed codes that we're using now breaks mouse scrolling over embedded videos causing your mouse wheel scrolling to stop working when your mouse is over the videos.

Sounds pretty trivial matter but it's rather annoying when it happens, particularly when you need to scroll a long page that contains some videos.

I'm pretty sure it's not just me

Local web hosting with python support

aMer — Thu, 12 May 2011 13:33:20 +0800

Hai.

Does anyone know any local shared web hosting (other than Exabytes or Shinjiru) that offer support for Python cgi in their web server? I have lately become somewhat more comfortable using Python after having self taught myself the language for a while, so now I wish I could use it more seriously for web development, in place of PHP.

SAMSUNG SpinPoint F3 series

aMer — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 20:57:25 +0800

I just noticed that my Spin_Up_Time attrib value has dropped to the point that it's almost near its threshold since the past few weeks. Is this perfectly normal for SpinPoint f3 series model or it's an early sign of bearing failure?

Local Team Fortress 2 Server!

aMer — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 07:10:21 +0800

Hello guys!

So we have one server which is not much in used and we thought of hosting Team Fortress 2 on it seeing that there's no one else hosting local TF2 anymore after the previous local TF2 was closed down or dissappeared from game tracker. So here it is, we bring you a new TF2 server for all local Team Fortress 2 players!

Server ip: 202.190.182.75:27015

The server runs with SourceMod with some basic plugins loaded. Also, we are planning to add HLstatX to track players statistics once we have gained considerabe number of players base later (hopefully) About the maps, we only load Dustbowl and Goldrush into the mapcycle but we could add some custom maps as well if there's any request for that.

At this moment, I'm the only admin that handles this server so if there's any issue with this server, you could talk to me directly or just post them here. And if you think you could help me with managing this server, feel free to PM me and we'll see if we could work something out.

I am honestly new to this game, in fact I've just started playing it no more than 2 weeks ago Truth being said, so if you have any nice suggestions or ideas for this server, please step forward and let us know. Anyway, feel free to join this server and don't forget to bring in some friends too.

Have fun!

Linux with 4GB RAM

aMer — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 16:26:40 +0800

Did anyone here manage to recompile kernal to get their Ubuntu @ other distro to see full 4GB ram on system with 4GB memory? From little searches, I found that the kernal has to be recompiled with PAE option enabled, also with HIGHMEM64G =y and HIGHMEM4G =y. PAE is usually enabled by default in new kernal these days..
