17th August 2005, My Freedom Day

Its my freedom at last!
After that D*********d S****m (Known as 'YouKnowWhat') ruin my vacation, I have been stressed up with my life.

But then, my God sees my hunger, sees my desire. He redeemed my soul by this time, 17 August 2005. Now, I can smile once more.

Though it was a journey to seek a place for my Church's Retreat Camp, it was considered of me as a liberation day. I have never been in a vacation before. Already I failed to take one on last semester, especially because of that freakin' super duper YouKnowWhat!!!

We seek for a place where we can spend a budget not more than Rp 1,500,000.00 for a 3 days 2 nights villa in Idul Fitri day (3 to 5 November 2005), which is an insane mount of payment for such days where people pay higher for that. Well, more insane, we want an ocean view with white sand beach no reefs, just sand so we can play at beach and the beach is not crowded, if it possible just us on it.

I know that we would not find what we search, but I was very excited at that time, 'coz I can go to see a beautiful view. Sadly, we didn't spend more time on the beach, coz we have to look for the villa. I was expecting that I could went swimming. I've prepared it. Oh, well, at least I could played at the beach at sunset and watched it sunk.

Thank's for that vacation, now my heart become more enlightened. Ever since my failure in collecting samples in Interaction System, my self-esteem became worst and worst. And since that darned week where I've lost one of my best friend, lost one of my rev in church service (because of some conflicts), and almost lost my mother right before my birthday (that's why I hate my birthday being celebrated), I almost lost my will to live. Now, I can see clearly that the sky is blue and the ocean are wide, and I have a magnificient God who give my life so beautifully.

Well,
You don't know what happiness is before you tasted sorrow.
You don't know what you have until you lost some.
You don't know what love and compassion means until you meet hate.
You don't know what victory is until you lose.

You don't know what life is until you taste it all.
enjoy.

STAN vs. UI

Ugh, kasihan banget adek gue. Saking kepinteran dia jadi dapet Akuntansi UI dan STAN. Jadi bingung mau masuk yang mana. Beberapa orang (termasuk orang tua gue), menyarankan masuk STAN. Gue malah memperburuk suasana dengan membela memasuki Akuntansi UI, maklum bela almamater. Duh, gue jadi merasa bersalah bikin dia ragu-ragu. Kira-kira enakan masuk mana, yah? Gue juga gak tahu keuntungan masing-masing. Hasil debat sementara: ~ Untuk jangka panjang masuk UI, untuk jangka pendek STAN. ~~Tapi, dia itu kan cewek, ntar pas menikah kemungkinan besar karir terhambat. Eits, ntar, dulu, sekarang kan jamannya emansipasi, bisa aja cowoknya yang jadi BRT. ~ STAN sarang korupsi, kalo masuk STAN jadi pegawai negeri. Kalo mau kaya harus korupsi. Tapi kalo masuk UI, lulus masuk jadi akuntan publik. Sekarang ini, orang membayar akuntan publik untuk memanipulasi nilai pajak dan aset. *SIGH*. Jadi gak ada yang beres ~ dll. Yah, udah gue jadi bingung, apa lagi dia nanya saran gue. Buah, gue gak pengalaman ...

Installing Goodix Fingerprint Reader Driver on Fedora

I currently have a Lenovo Thinkpad L14 laptop equipped with fingerprint. I was `belok` from KDE Neon to use Fedora 40 because of someone. Now I am tempted to enable my fingerprint: lsusb | grep -i fingerprint Bus 001 Device 004: ID 27c6:55b4 Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co.,Ltd. Fingerprint Reader Dump the firmware Assuming this is a fresh install, lets do some magic by getting some dependencies: sudo dnf install gcc git python-pip python-devel openssl Let's get the source code: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/goodix-fp-linux-dev/goodix-fp-dump.git cd goodix-fp-dump Create an isolated Python environment: python -m venv .v source .v/bin/activate Do the magic: sudo su pip install -r requirements.txt python run_55b4.py exit There are some python scripts available. I run run_55b4.py because my device ID is 27c6: 55b4 . It will spell some nonsense, which is a good thing. That nonsense actually the firmware captured by our device. Also, I typed exit becaus...

Chivalry vs Feminism

Throughout these years I constantly making experiment about how our society perceive about the societal changes. The overhaul of sexist strata and the privilege reformations follow. Note that every change could be perceived as progress or detrimental to the society. The foremost subject that I run is about the opposite of manliness perceived by the oldies vs modern women. The modern era allow women go out from the kitchen into the office. They can have career and enjoy the privilege that men were exclusively had in years. And, can men also do the reverse? Can men also enjoy the privilege of what women do in the past? Can men move from office into the kitchen? And the answer on this era is: NO. While women could reverse their role, men are not allowed to do the same in this society. Society will punish you when a man tries to do that. They will put a healthy man who chose to be at home dad as an irresponsible not-a-man person. If a woman's worth could be rewritten, why not...
