300??

Thx to anyone who said that 300 is a great movie. It made my expectation high, so high that I was getting disappointment over this film. (I agree with Tino)

1. They bring the great name of Sin City creator of it.
And what is the result? The character was developed in an instant, i.e. no chara devel at all! What the heck? The drawing of the character is not strong enough. Leonidas was described as a Godlike person, which should be the drawing of King Xerces. And what was that legend of he killed a beast? Didn't that make him a non lover husband filled with lust and berserk? That was too much.

I even laughted (in my mind of course, I promised myself not to spoil the story) when the storyteller told about any single move he would made:
"His helmed is to bla.. bla.. bla.."
"His armor is too heavy, so he bla.. bla.. bla.."

This is like a humorous scene. The stereotype of joke movies where the storytelling goes beyond of that:

"His pants is to wetty he want to pee..." (You know what I mean if you watch the movie) :)


2. Great sinematography on the film.
Yeah, I thought of that at the beginning of the movie. I was amazed of how the film described the column formation to rally against the waving horde. It reminded me of the box formation of British shooters that have won against Napoleon's army.

But, the formation details was not long. This film was like a checklisted todo. They filmed the detailed realism but forgot to do that again in the rest of the movie. How annoying!

Their blood stain is beyond realism too. What the heck they are doing? They pictured the blood spilled from the body parts. But, none of them stained on the ground. Even the blood from the archers.

The dead of Leonidas was a replica of Hero.

How come their costume just like a barbaric tribes? AFAIK, at that time, the Greeks already have armory. Hmm.. I think they just want to make the Greek soldier more barbaric and macho. I just have to accept that.

The most disappointing part is when the son of the captain died. Where did the horse come? Where are the rest of his troops? And why he disappear after killing that man? Mistery.

Oh, well, there were good parts of the film that I like. The last part is the most. The coloring is great, full of painting. I like that.

Anyway, this film is good movie but not good enough to be a great one and a good one is the type of film which I watch in DVD, not in the theater.

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...
