人生機會難逢,抱握當下!

June 07, 2010 By: darylim Category: daily dosage No Comments →

这是我从一位朋友facebook取得的一篇优作品,启发了我对人生的不同看法。不要因为过去而念念不忘,不要为前后一些不值得回忆的记忆而勾起伤感。

要做个堂堂正正的绅士,从黑暗中胜出,让世界看到那潇洒的一面。

睁大眼睛看看周朝,因为你一个人的不快乐,地球不会因此而停止旋转。又何必带着悲伤过日子呢?

希望你读以下的作品,能够让你感受不一。

如果你已經過了20歲但還不到25歲的話,你必須找到除了愛情之外,能夠使你用雙腳堅強站在大地上的東西。你要找到謀生的方式。現在考慮不晚了。

我從來不以為學歷有什麼重要,天才都不是科班,但,不是科班,連龍套都跑不了。

你必須把那些浮如飄絮的思緒,漸漸轉化為清晰的思路和簡單的文字。

華麗和漂浮都不易長久。你要知道,給予文字閱讀快感不夠的,內容,思想,境界,靈魂,精神和智慧,這些才重要。

不要多看那些和你一個路數的女作家的文字。不要瑣碎,無病呻吟。

不要想到什麼就寫。不要流連於小感傷和小感動。

我要你相信溫暖,美好,信任,尊嚴,堅強這些老掉牙的字眼。

我不要你頹廢,空虛,迷茫,糟踐自己,傷害別人。

我不要你把自己處理得一團糟。

節制自己的感情並且珍惜它,明白這種感情不是任何人都能要。

體驗生活,是另外一回事,並不意味著墮落和放縱。千萬不要認同那些偽裝的酷和另類。

他們是無事可做的人找出來放任自己無事可做的藉口,真正的酷是在內心。

你要有強大的內心。

要有任憑時間流逝,不會磨折和屈服的信念。

不是因為在學校的象牙塔中,才說出我愛世界這樣的話,是知道外面的黑,髒,醜陋之後,還要說出這樣的話。

好好去愛,去生活。青春如此短暫,不要歎老。

偶爾可以停下來休息,但是別蹲下來張望。

走了一條路的時候,記得別回頭看。時不時問問自己,自己在幹嘛?

傷心和委屈的時候,要嚎啕大哭。哭完洗完臉,拍拍自己的臉,擠出一個微笑給自己看。

不要揉,否則第二天早上會眼睛腫。

給自己一個遠大的前程和目標。記得常常仰望天空。記住仰望天空的時候也看看腳下。

任何時候,任何人問你,有過多少次戀愛,答案是兩次。

一次是他愛我,我不愛他。一次是我愛他,他不愛我。

好的愛情永遠在下一次。別給同一個人兩次傷害你的機會。不要與浪子,文藝青年交往,別和沒心沒肺的人在一起,別和沒有正當職業混日子的人在一起。別把犯賤當真愛。一個人作踐自己來取悅你的時候,千萬不要因此感動。

一個男人的煙頭燙在他身上,下一個就可能燙在你身上。

同樣的,當這個女人的刀片割斷她的手腕,下次就可能割斷你的。

 
千萬別相信一個不準備將你介紹給他的朋友圈子的男人。

一個女人只肯喊你“寶貝”的時候,堅持要她喊你的名字,因為你是男人。

一個男人或者女人不再來找你的時候,就不要再去找他或者她。

不要相信在戀愛上用手段的人。分手時不要口出惡言。

吸取教訓,但不要後悔。後悔沒有用。

別去做撕照片,燒信,撕日記這樣一類三流愛情電視劇中才有人幹的事。

相信愛情。相信好男人和好女人還存在,還未婚,還在茫茫人海中尋覓你。

別說“男人(或者女人)沒一個好東西”,這樣使別人誤以為你閱人無數。

愛物質,適當地。永遠知道精神更重要。

比起那些名錶,名牌,時裝,更加美麗的是勤奮而有朝氣的你自己。

如果你20歲以後所花的每一分錢還都是伸手向父母親人要來的,那你的滿身名牌就只能襯托出你的無恥。

別以為穿上名牌你就有品位,要知道如果沒有真正的內涵,騾子配上金鞍也不會變成駿馬。

你還年輕,先不說開始你的事業,開創你的未來,但你已經成年,至少也要讓自己不再成為父母的負擔,讓父母看到20年辛苦養育的希望。

無所事事只會把你變成一個廢物,一個被所有其他人鄙夷的廢物,因為這樣的你是一個不折不扣的寄生蟲。別以為弄個怪異的髮型,穿上不男不女的衣服,噴上刺鼻的香水,別人就會注重你,要明白那樣招來的眼光就是別人在看一隻與眾不同的猴子。許多有教養的人對另類的你的反感並不寫在臉上,但這種反感確鑿無疑肯定會給你帶來極其不利的後果。

 
別瞧不起勞動人民。不要為勞動羞恥。土地不髒,汗味不難聞。

請尊重那些似乎生活狀況不如你,但仍然用自己的雙手誠實勞動養家糊口的人,因為這樣才是尊重自己。永遠體恤那些生活在底層的人們,因為我們的親人就是在這些人群中。我們不嬌貴。我們必須能夠自己養活自己,這是你的尊嚴所在。

不要小看一分錢。不妨自己去掙掙看。做人有時要強悍一點,被欺負的時候,一定要討回
來!但是不要記恨。小人之見,隨他們去好了。有原則的寬容和憐憫,會使你高貴。
有小心機的女生是可愛的,但別把這種心計用在勾心鬥角上,那樣會很累。

做人不要太高調,高調容易招惹是非。但也不能太低調,該強悍時則強悍,但切不可咄咄逼人。

被朋友傷害了的時候,別懷疑友情,但提防背叛你的人。原諒,但並不遺忘。

做人存幾分天真童心,對朋友保持一些俠義之情。要快樂,要開朗,要堅韌,要溫暖。
這和性格無關。但你要忠誠,勤奮,要真誠的尊重別人,這樣你的人生才不會黑暗。
寬待自己,也寬待別人。當你不會因為小小的不如意小小的事而生氣或難過的時候,
你會輕鬆很多。

要原諒這個世界和自己。

要告訴自己。。

我值得擁有最好的一切。

Tooth of Wisdom

November 24, 2008 By: darylim Category: daily dosage, events 3 Comments →

After being disturbed by one of the wisdom tooth that has caused myself pretty much agony for a while. Today is the day where i would remove the root of the problem and other underlying pain that would come by my way in the near future.

It started off with a pain in the jaw which i though initially, where by i went to a Polyclinic and they referred me to the National Dental Centre. After one session of consultant, the dentists informed that it was due to the wisdom tooth problem, and it would be best if i could remove all 4 of them.

Since i’m currently serving my National Service, i would not have to pay a single cent for the whole surgery, which could easily amount up to 900bucks for a simple day surgery.

It’s interesting that for such a surgery, i even had to wear the patient’s robes. Somehow it feels weird as there are no buttons and its very easily exposed.

These are the remains of my 4 wisdom teeth. There’s the 2 big ones and the rest are the other 2 which are the debris of the other 2 teeth. Pretty disgusting to know about what they did to it to remove them.

But well, now it’s where the difficult part begins. No hot steamy food, no hard food for the time being. Until then, i have 8days of Hospitalization Leave to spend.

A well deserved break definitely!

Prime number, quite a torture.

November 19, 2008 By: darylim Category: daily dosage, reviews 6 Comments →

So what’s a prime number.

primenumbers.jpg

A positive integer that’s only divisible by 1 and itself.

That it is, the first thing i learnt in Secondary One. Later i realised they’re are good for tortures as well.

It would be quite a torture itself to ask someone to list the first 100 prime numbers in ascending series. Let’s try..

2..3..5..7..11..13..17..19..23..29..31..37..41..43..brain dead

There is something that was created by George Woltmon, who made use of prime numbers to conduct the stress tests. This particular software “Prime95″ was written to test how well can your computer system work when it is put onto a 100% workload, to calculate as many prime numbers, bigger and bigger. Due to the fact that the bigger the number grows, it will be more difficult to determine if the particular number is a prime number.

More readings can be obtained @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime95

On August 23rd, a UCLA computer in the GIMPS PrimeNet network discovered the 45th known Mersenne prime, 2^43,112,609-1, a mammoth 12,978,189 digit number! The prime number qualifies for the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s $100,000 award for discovery of the first 10 million digit prime number.

[extracted from http://www.mersenne.org/]

So, i tried this software on my new PC, just to test my maximum temperature my PC will hit when put all my 4 Cores at their maximum. Here are the results.

temp.JPG

It reads a Maximum Temperature of 60degrees, from the idling temperature of 47degrees. Pretty decent work done by my 14cm CPU Fan and the other peripheral fans.

Anyway to sidetrack a little, i finally played the Red Alert 3 that i have gotten recently. The graphics is love.

First time i could proudly put the video settings of the game, details and resolution to “Ultra High” mode. Details such as water ripples, shadows and wind direction can be easily spotted and clearly seen running without hiccups.

Can’t stand looking at fake chic? There are actually real models that are used in the game as some of the characters in the game play.

Sexy ain’t it?

The Hackintosh

November 18, 2008 By: darylim Category: daily dosage 14 Comments →

For the past 2 to 3 months or so, I’ve been searching the web, the forums to get extra cheap deals to build my next PC. Not really a PC, but not really a Mac as well because it it doesnt have the brand of Apple. It’s a Hackintosh!

mac_os_x_leopard.jpg

For those who aren’t so sure.. A Hackintosh is..

A computer built to run Apple Mac OS X is also known as a Hackintosh, which is a recycled term originally denoting the modified Lisa 2/10 running Mac System, or Macintosh.

Well, let’s not delve into the very technical parts of it. In layman terms, it’s having Apple Mac’s Operating System on a PC, which natively only can be used on Apple’s Computers.

“The internet is for porn”, other than porn as quoted by Monster Trekkie in AvenueQ, it’s a good place for good deals. Almost every part of the build was gotten off eBays and forums. It’s seriously a place for great deals.

The humble specs are as follows.. some of them are bought off the shelves though.

  • Gigabyte P35-DS3R Motherboard
  • Core 2 Quad Q9450 Processor
  • 4GB Kingston Ram
  • XFX XXX 8800GT 512MB GPU
  • PC Power and Cooling Silencer 500W PSU
  • SIlverstone Casing
  • LG 19″inch TV
  • Scythe Zipang PSU Cooler (a really BIG one)
  • Many other fans and coolers..

The build will looks something like this..

Imagine squeezing all these nonsense into one small casing.

The massive 14cm Scythe Heatsink Fan..

IMG_9377.JPG

Zalman cooling GPU

IMG_9378.JPG

Delta fans, and the 2 HDD fans at the back.

Thanks to Felix, with his help i managed to put all these parts together. Not a easy feat considering the constrain space in the Silverstone Casing and the amount of components we are trying to squeeze inside the unit.

After the hardware aspects, here comes the software part of the Hackintosh, equally challenging or more i should say.

After extensive reading on www.insanelymac.com i managed to acquire some basic knowledge on installing MAC on a PC using distro genius like kalyway and leo4all created, which makes installation so much simpler and direct. But it’s not as simple as installing other OS’s like XP or Ubuntu. The installation is more complex as the drivers are not so compatible and easily available.

After 3 days of installing and reinstalling, formatting and testing, 3 days of research and trying, I have successfully installed a OSx86 Leopard onto the PC which i have built. It is also dual boot with Windows XP SP3 so that i can play my games that require Windows platform. The sense of achievement is almost unbelievable.

The beautiful wallpaper with the dock.

Expose; one of the software to easily choose the current window u are working with..

And this is the final product… Round of applause.. :D :D

Daily Dosage of 041207 | One leg kicking

December 04, 2007 By: darylim Category: daily dosage No Comments →

It was almost the first time being alone for the whole event in the AV room. Normally, i would arrive only when the things are being setup properly, and all i have to do is to control them. But sad to say, i’m the only one covering the event today.

Well, in one way or another, it was a good learning point for me to not rely so much on others to do the setup, and really get down to earth and learn the operations of the startup of the system.

Luckily Boss was just a phone call away and there were some kind souls around for some assistance. Glad that the show when on well, though with a little glitches here and there.

Can’t really expect things to be that perfect with only 1 person in the room controlling EVERYTHING. From lightning to sound to slide shows, dvd players, cameras and mixer. So many knobs and buttons, how can i operate full swing with only 2 hands and 10 fingers. 

I ain’t a thousand hand buddha.

I’m still at the premature stage of playing with Photoshop, allow me to doodle some side works on my blog for experimental sake. I guess its more of such practices that can sharpen up my skills on this wonderful tool.

And thanks to Sayanee for imparting her skills on Photoshop to me, though i guess i won’t really make a good disciple. Hah!

I am glad that my leg is less sore now, able to walk faster now. Though the thought of climbing that flight of stairs, especially the downwards one still sends shivers to my thighs. Hopefully it will be better tomorrow, and that it will not restrict my movement and involvements in more upcoming gatherings and outings.
