Madness contravenes

It's the hols already. So don't be expecting any other posts other than this one:) One week off and i'd be back next week. I see that my poll has gotten ten votes, which would translate to 10 people vising this site 10 times a week? I'm very warmed:) lol. Anyways, i have gotten some very insane remarks about my tastespotting "food porn" bit of post in the last week. Replies include:

1. Richard you idiot. I was hungry, then you made me hungrier.
2. How they manage to photoshop those photos to make them look so delicious?
3. Why got satay there wan? lol.

As i have always maintained in this blog is that, thread with caution and also at your won risk. lol.

Anyways, i think i am going to post a long one today, because i am stressed out. (stressed out = good post = long post = lots of things that you probably don't need to know). I'd be starting with the stuff that you don't need to know, or things that you might wanna know, but don't know where to search them for. I shall start with this, taken off Wired Magazine.



What is that you may ask? It's an X-ray of a chest of course! And that white blot thingie on the left side of the chest (that would be your right side of the screen), is a pacemaker - a little gadget that in implanted into people with irregular heartbeat problems. Anyways, these wonderful life saving gadgets emit radio signals to tell your doc whether your heart is working, or vice versa. What you didn't know is that a bunch of mad scientists have recently managed to hack into the pacemaker over it's unencrypted radio signal, and would be able to completely shut it off, or turn it into a time-bomb. I can't imagine any mad men trying to take advantage of this little loophole, but why not put some firewall/encryption into that thing. I hate to see one nut-case trying to blackmail the world by threatening to shut every pace maker around - which would sound like Fabes, but he's horrid with gadgets.

Enough of world nonsense for a moment, lookie here at what i have found:) last week i have posted a tiny bit about the Volvo alarm clock which looks uber-cool. Too bad for those who can't wake up to loud noises, no worries, cause i have the next best thing. A pillow! [via Geekologie]

Apparently, it wakes you up 40 mins before your wake time. LOL. I'm just kidding, the OLED's in the pillow starts to slowly light up 40 mins before so it's be as bright as sunshine when you really need to wake up. I can imagine the scene now, Someone opens the curtains to reveal the sunlight, then you grunt, roll over to your side, and puts the pillow on your face, then scream "MY EYES!! MY EYES!!" damn you stupid pillow. lol. =P

Then again, you can always wake up your sleeping whomever with this nifty little weird thing. Ya know how the Japanese love to make all sorts of gadgets to suit their insatiable sex drives, yes? Well, they have over done it this time with a mad mad "Buddha Lucky Palm Breast Massager". Lol. Why oh why do they think of such things? [via Gizmodo]


Hahaha. The situation may back-fire on the guys whom are contemplating *on getting their gfs/wives* one of these madness. I think with a simple hack, say replacing the motors inside, plus a nine volt batt instead of the normal 1.5 vlt ones, it would make a great self-defense tool against pervs like Lit Shiuan:) hahahaha. The pain would be unimaginable. (if you don't understand what i am trying to say, it's ok, that proves you're a very innocent person)

And oh, while we are that the matters of all things that are not supposed to be shown in front of your boss, or your grandparents, Here's something you might be interested in yourself:) [via Gizmodo]

Looks like a watch or something huh? Well, in some ways, it is a watch, but it's also a crazy mad gadget! Really. I mean it. It allows you to monitor that person's heart-beat, perspiration, blood pressure to tell what emotions that person is having at the moment. Hehehehe. The author tried it on himself, and gotten a "Excited 95%" reading.

So people, you know what this means right? Let me spell it out for you.

1. No more porn at work, the house, anywhere!
2. Easier to pick up a date and see if he/she is interested in you.
3. No more lying to the wife/gf that she looks great in those jeans. lol.

That's enough of the nonsense i guess. I think my posts these days are getting more pencilled into the mad things technology gives us these days. But just one last paragraph of something (or two) then i will go on to my normal post! Promise:) *fingers crossed*

See, by the time we (or rather i) graduate and start work and then have enough money to buy a car, most of my options would be hybrids, or even electric cars. The thing is that i don't think that these types of cars retain the soul of the cars of this time and age because, they don't sound like one. lol. Since engines are entirely run by electricity, there won't be any grunts, and sounds of bolts dropping to the floor. Thankfully, there's one company that feels the same way as i do, and presents to you the Fisker Karma [via Autoblog]

This car has speakers that would emit sounds of anything from a fighter jet to a sports-car. Lol. I would imagine a hack that would play sounds like "Get out of my way you idiotic Proton driver who has bought useless loud exhaust pipes that scrape the ground etc etc etc". Hahaha. With 0-100kmph in 6 seconds, i would seriously smoke that nut-head easy :)

Anyways, now unto my normal post. I have noticed that bus drivers these days are increasingly being more polite and more courteous to their passengers. Maybe it's because they finally realize that we are the ones whom are actually paying their wages. lol. And since they are so understanding to our needs and realize that we are at times at a rush for time, they would do a few things.

1. Run the lights for you.
(Driver, i need to be there in 30 mins, can you make it? : : "No problem boss!)

2. Zig/zag through traffic for you.
(Driver, i need to do a bus chase scene for my project, boleh? : : "BOLEH BOSS!!)

3. Use illegal lanes for you/honk at people driving under 150kmph/etc.

See, they love you a lot. so use the public transport! *grins*

And when we say that MMU has a lot of creative and innovative students, i'm sure that those people didn't mean that in this way, two sets of photos taken by yours truly:)

They were trying to make sense of their lectures by writing down encrypted notes on the desk-chairs thingie. Hope they pass their exams:)

And oh, i wanted to blog about this tiny Starbucks place in Section 17, but i didn't take photos of the place. It was nice, with loads of sofas, and also this conference table (i'm not kidding!), oval shaped with lights and such. Seats like 6-8, plus it's at the corner, so it's perfect for those mafia like meetings that you need. But I would blog about the Caramel Mocha Latte, that looks lovely, but their promise of "SWEETNESS!" is kinda disappointing. That's why i stick to Coffee Bean's Ice Blended Caramel. lol.


And oh, this starbucks uses recycled paper as napkins. i <3 the designs on it. lol. I think this is the first time i'm using "<3".

And last picture of the day


Hahahahaha! it's a signage to the restrooms. I think, the warning signs would fit Steve and Chee Wei to a tee. =P Anyways, the restaurant that i took this photo is called Wekitpietyesdeut something. lol. Just kidding. I forgot the name, but it's next to the Restoran Lorong Seratus Tahun (i swear that's real! and has killer curry mee). If you don't know where that is, it's in SS2 Pj. If you don't know where it is, it's near section 17, past section 14. If you don't know where that is, you can either Google it or call me:) The restaurant sells bubble tea as a main attraction btw, people don't go there just for the funny restroom sign:)

Anyways, that's it people. Super Long Post, plus a new poll! go vote! (results of the previous vote for "When do you visit this blog?" is 10 votes for "when i feel like it". The other answers came up empty. lol)

Cheers!
