• north and back part 2: kota bharu

    the next morning was a working saturday. sucks, but true. it was supposed to be a gotong-royong day to clean up our work areas and follow the 5S methodology. i tried, i really did, but i think i wiped at the first S. strangely enough, the person who announced the cleanup was on leave.…

    recently found my workplace Mozilla Thunderbird client acting messed up. every time a message comes in, i get a message saying my Inbox summary file has been corrupted and needs to be deleted. yet even when i did that the problem still persists. after scouring the web for answers, it seems that Thunderbird mailboxes…

  • puter matters

    my puter just experienced it’s first ‘ghostly reboot’ yesterday while i was watching an episode of BSG. the first occurence since its return into its semi-modified casing. checked the temperature history and found it well within its normal range (i’ve seen it do constant 67C without any glitches). hopefully it isn’t dying a slow…
