Milenyo 'Xangsane' Left Me Good Benefit...

For a day Milenyo visit our country, a power-cut takes place almost at our place from 11am to 7:30pm. So I can't use my computer and even my internet until the power back at already night time, and so until 12mn I use it.

Then today, when I wake up too early because my mom shout aloud just to tell our maid that she will go to church for Morning Watch, maybe it was 5-5:30 in the morning. Then I stood up and try to open my computer. When I open my web browser, Mozilla Firefox, "the page cannot be displayed" it says... Then I try to check the cables and powers, it's all set and ready-to-use (as is :D) ad when I really cannot browse any site,.. I surrender! I shut down my computer at 6am. I eat breakfast, some body stretch and relax. I took my cellphone and i noticed that it has only 2 bars or sometimes it goes down to 1 bar only. My network is also SMART just like my ISP. So, I think the problem is with the tower. I went down at our house and just relax outside garage. 7am or later, I returned up at our house and check my cellphone if it has still 2 bars, the signal was Full Bar now!!! I rush open my computer and try to access at the internet and then poof... it became Koko Cru... ahhh! I'm still starve :D,.. I can browse at the internet again!

Then it was, I opened my site and check my current bandwidth.. it was 950 or somethin' higher but not reached 1 Mb, and I can download files for about 118KB/sec upto 125KB/sec!!! What a boost!!! But the normal bandwidth of SMART Bro (WiFi) was only 384 kbps or for about... 48KB/sec. But mostly my maximum bandwidth only was 256kbps (32KB/sec) and below. And I download RAN OnLine Installer approximately 3hours. And playing Tantra OnLine without any disturbance of network failure (Laggggg XD).

I just thinking if...

- The signal of SMART WiFi and SMART Cellphone was the same traffic... or in other words, same signal receiveing...
- By the time I was check my bandwidth, everyone still disconnected and I took all of their signals to make my internet boost... or in other words, I'm just too lucky that I am the only one using Wifi here in our area...


(So what's the connection of Hurricane 'Xangsane' Milenyo at the boosting of the Internet Connection???)

I received this e-mail September 15, 2006... same time when I blog this post. While I'm playing Tantra MMORPG, a Yahoo Messenger alert tells me that I received a message w/ a subject, "YOUR EMAIL ID HAS WON $1,000,000.00 USD !!!CONGRATULATIONS!!!". Of course! I'm surprised because it is my first time I experience this kind of mail. But I went to an investigation first if that company, Staatsloterij International, is real or a scam/spam mail only. I try to copy-paste the subject title to Google search and numerous of result appeared mostly telling this mail is a scam and and also I want to warn all of you who are not yet encountered this kinds of mails... Better delete it from your address and even blog it to share this to those people who have not yet experience this.

Introducing in a New World

Last week, when Windows tell me that I'm a victim of counterfeiting about the piracy of Windows installer. I think about using other OS (Operating System) and install it to my other desktop computer. I decided to change OS in my P3 computer with Linux. And yesterday was it happen. But I still have Microsoft Windows computer. But now, I'll try to compare these two OS and try to learn more about Linux and what are their secrets.
