alucard89 — Thu, 16 Oct 2025 07:50:37 +0800

Hi, i have a 8.30 am flight on 24th so I plan to park my car at salak tinggi station at 3-4am and take grab to the airport. But with the asean summit closing roads everywhere I’m not sure if this feasible anymore.

I’m from kuantan btw.
Would the roads still be fully or partially closed on that day even before dawn?

Recommended soldering wire brand?

alucard89 — Tue, 30 Sep 2025 18:32:54 +0800

Hi, so I have this solder wire that I got from my dad and it just melts and solders easily with a shiny surface (beats mr diy’s or cheap soldering wire everytime)
The problem is the label was lost since I needed to get more of this. It had a green label with guy’s face silhouette

Anyone might recognise this brand or can recommend similar one?

Using female to female hdmi adapter

alucard89 — Tue, 28 Nov 2023 18:20:23 +0800

Hi, can I use a cheapo adaptor like this one or do I need more expensive one for 4k/dolby vision/hdr with tivo 4k android box?

There’s no space behind the tv since it’s mounted and all the hdmi cables are already laid out.

Just wondering if it does affect the quality or another gold plated hdmi cable nonsense

Maxis N Safe Device subscription

alucard89 — Fri, 10 Feb 2023 13:27:41 +0800

Hi, so the 3 free months is gonna be ending soon
Anyone has experience with N safe subscription?
I thought at first they’ll replace the device/cover the damages for free but there’s fixed fee depending on device price/damage/theft.

Only thing I’m worried about glass cracked and replacing it doesn’t seem to be as expensive as what maxis charges.

Rick & Morty officially cancelled

alucard89 — Wed, 25 Jan 2023 07:49:21 +0800

Adult Swim has cut ties with Justin Roiland in the wake of the news that the Rick and Morty co-creator was charged with felony domestic abuse in Orange County.

“Adult Swim has ended its association with Justin Roiland,” Adult Swim/Cartoon Network/Boomerang svp communications Mairie Moore said in a statement on Tuesday.

Adult Swim distributes Rick and Morty, the hit adult animation comedy that Roiland co-created and executive produced, and for which he voiced both the titular Rick and Morty. As The Hollywood Reporter reported on Jan. 17, Adult Swim isn’t even halfway through a massive 70-episode order for the show, one of the brand’s most popular titles, commissioned by the channel in 2018.

alucard89 — Tue, 31 Aug 2021 09:20:31 +0800

Hi guys, just installed debian on this old vostro 3450 laptop to run homeassistant and running docker apps.
Only thing I can't figure out is how to get this device automatically restart after power outage.

I can't seem to find setting related to ac power management in the bios

Any advice on this?
