Bluetooth earphones

headhunter7 — Fri, 11 Feb 2022 11:21:35 +0800

Hey guys, I have a Sony WI-C300 Bluetooth earphones that I frequently use. It works well with my android phone, but I'm encountering this problem on my work laptop (Windows 10);

After a while in a meeting, I'd say about 5 mins, suddenly there wouldn't be any sound. I'd have to disconnect the earphone and reconnect and then the sound comes back. I've turned off "allow windows to save power on this device" but yet it occurs again and again.

I'd like to emphasise that I use the earphones on my phone for more than 1 hour and it works perfectly. I've tried this on my other work laptop yet the same occurs, which is why I'm thinking it's a Windows problem.

Any help will be appreciated, thanks!

Vaccination Digital Certificate

headhunter7 — Mon, 29 Nov 2021 14:04:44 +0800

Hey guys, sent a tweet to KJ and JKJAV but to no avail, was wondering if you guys notice this -

Earlier this month I generated my vaccination digital certificate and my first dose was this;

Nama Produk / Product name
COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca Solution for Injection (KR)

Nama Umum / Common Name
AstraZeneca

Pengeluar / Manufacturer
SK Bioscience Co., Ltd.

After a while I was just trying to re-download the certificate and somehow my product and manufacturer changed!

Nama Produk / Product name
COVID-19 Vaccine AstraZeneca Solution for Injection (SE)

Nama Umum / Common Name
AstraZeneca

Pengeluar / Manufacturer
AstraZeneca AB

Suddenly it's made by Sweden, instead of a Korean manufacturer. Don't think something they injected in my body can be changed just like that can't it?

Wonder if anyone can shed some light onto this.

Interest May Now Be Charged For Hire Purchase Loan

headhunter7 — Thu, 30 Apr 2020 19:06:15 +0800

QUOTE

Hire-purchase loans and fixed-rate Islamic financing will now have additional interest charges during the 6-month moratorium. Both loans currently will not have any additional interest charges, but Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) and the Association of Banks Malaysia (ABM) have announced changes that will be effective tomorrow (1 May 2020).

Both loan types are flat-rate, where interest charges are calculated upfront. The 6-month moratorium means that customers enjoy an interest-free payment holiday from April to September 2020. With both ABM and BNM’s announcement, this will no longer be the case.

No sound

headhunter7 — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 13:45:56 +0800

Hey guys, I was wondering if you could help me?

I've just transitioned from windows 7 32bit to windows 8 64bit, everything seems to be working fine except for the sound.

I've installed all the latest drivers from VIA and yet it seems there's no sound even though it shows in windows that its working perfectly.

Any ideas?

I've also noticed that in the VIA HD Audio deck, the green jack isn't in colour, as if its not detected.

Help,please?

Thank you.

Recieved a job interview

headhunter7 — Tue, 24 Sep 2013 19:16:34 +0800

Hey guys, I would really appreciate it if you were to give out opinions and suggestions regarding this situation that I'm facing.

I've been offered a job at this company(A) and I'm supposed to start soon. I'm well aware of the job scope etc, and I'm perfectly fine with the job. But today, out of nowhere I've received a phone call from a GLC/MNC , that they would like to interview me, of which I will be starting to work at (A), at the same time.

I know that it's not certain that I will get the job but the offer seems lucrative as compared to company (A).

I would like to either delay the employment from the current company , or decline the employment , and go to the interview of the GLC/MNC . If so, any ideas on how do I tell company (A)?

Any suggestions or opinions? Thank you.

The screenshot was taken with firefox running ( 1 tab = to post this thread) but even with firefox closed, the core is still running high. Anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

Thanks

Man Catches 881-pound tuna

headhunter7 — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 00:07:43 +0800

QUOTE

A Massachusetts fisherman pulled in an 881-pound tuna this week only to have the federal authorities take it away.
It sounds like a libertarian twist on the classic novella by Ernest Hemingway, The Old Man and the Sea, but for Carlos Rafael, the saga is completely true.

Rafael and his crew were using nets to catch bottom-dwellers when they inadvertently snagged the giant tuna. However, federal fishery enforcement agents took control of the behemoth when the boat returned to port.

The reason for the seizure was procedural: While Rafael had the appropriate permits, fishermen are only allowed to catch tuna with a rod and reel.

It would seem that unlike the fictional New England shark hunters in Jaws, Rafael didn't need a bigger boat, just a better permit.

In an interview with the Standard-Times of New Bedford, Rafael disputes the claims from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) enforcement division that the humungous tuna was trawled from the bottom of the Atlantic. "They didn't catch that fish on the bottom," he said. "They probably got it in the mid-water when they were setting out and it just got corralled in the net. That only happens once in a blue moon."....

Kesian the fisherman la ! WTF

Ambitions

The chairman of a French village football team has been suspended after making an audacious attempt to sign Lionel Messi.

FC Borne’s Cédric Enjolras submitted the formal request to sign Barcelona’s World Player of the Year last month after a boozy night out with friends.

However, the official request was intercepted by the French Football Federation who decided against sending it to Barcelona – instead suspending Cédric Enjolras for six months with three suspended.

Yves Begon, chairman of the FFF committee, acknowledged the request was a joke but that they “could not accept such behaviour”.

The French village, which has a population of just 400 people, play in the second division of the Haute-Loire district in the south of central France – a world away from where La Liga’s chief tormentor plies his exquisite trade.

Messi has already scored more than 40 goals for the Spanish side this season in the domestic game and in Europe and is widely regarded as one of the game’s greatest ever talents.

On Tuesday night he scored twice for Barcelona as the Catalan giants tore Arsenal apart, winning 3-1 in the second-leg of a Champions League tie.

His first goal, which saw him flick the ball over the keeper and then into the back of the net was described by Rio Ferdinand as a “Fifa 11 goal”.

Man Gets One Million

US comedian who made a YouTube video asking for $1m claims he has found someone willing to give him the money.

The original video, posted in November last year, shows New York comic Craig Rowin telling the "millionaires" watching online about his unabashed proposition.

"Please give me one million dollars. Now you have millions and millions of dollars. Give me one million. I don't need it for anything specific, but I think it would be awesome," he says.

In a new video posted this week, Mr Rowin triumphantly says a bona fide millionaire has responded to his appeal.

"On February 2nd I will be a one-millionaire," he says.

Mr Rowin said he was "skeptical" at first but then received a notorised letter from the millionaire's lawyer outlining the terms of agreement — that he will receive $1m and give nothing in return.

He also played a voicemail message he received from the generous benefactor.

"Hi Craig, Benjamin, I was hoping to catch you in person," the caller said. "I want to talk about how to make you a millionaire."

Mr Rowin says the millionaire, who has not been identified, will present him with a $1m check live on stage at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in Manhattan on February 2.

"It still hasn't sunk in yet," Mr Rowin told the New York Daily News.

"Do I deserve it? I have no idea. Maybe not. But there's so much wealth. Let me have a chunk."

The comedian reportedly insists it is not a stunt and claims to be genuinely "flabbergasted" by his good fortune.

Operating electronic devices

hei guise

I'll be off to China in a few days, and it seems ,according to the weather forecast, it'll be at -3 in the afternoon, -12 at nights.

I'm thinking of using my mobile phone + digicam, throughout the holiday. BUT under those conditions, will it harm the devices? >_>

Any tips while being in such a cold place?
