Blabber of My Mind

Hmm... today I setup a network which turned to be that the problem was with the network provider. Well, my friend has asked to have 4 public IPs, so the provider allocate new IP range. The important is, when the contact person himself gave up to solve our problem so he gave me direct contact of an Admin. Yeah, this is kinda awkward conversation of remained me of who am I.

/me:
"Hello, I am directed here by [CP GUY] to ask about our network. We are assigned by you with the [IP RANGE] with gateway [GW IP]."

T3h Ub312:
"Ow, okay. Are you using [CURRENT IP ADDRESS I USED]."

/me:
"Yes. What seems the problem"

T3h Ub312:
"Please wait a moment, I will check the IP."

/me:
"Okay, when can I call you back?"

T3h Ub312: [with higher tone]
"I have many things to do, must check firewalls and routers."

/me: {omgwtf, I was just asking to ask so that I could hung up the phone}
"Urgh... alright then. Thank you."

Wtf with the higher tone? He could just took some lame excuse and I still reconsidered it. But, then again as a fellow Admin, I realized that I was too have difficulties with people. Sometimes, people would nagged you all the way. So, that's why we are called Admin, we don't need to be in the frontline. Okay, I don't mind that, since maybe my asking also rude. So, I went home.

About abusive users, those lamers that could only nagging about something. Well, I have a quite dirty thinking: How about if we, Kambing and FOSS-ID, took the liberty of refused to working on our, using Feha's term, tertiary projects. I wonder what would happen? I mean, come on, some of them are meanie persons that blame us of being imperfect and acting bossy. They don't pay us, don't even contribute, using public forums to flame us. But, then again, those whom being constructive, asking nicely, and encourage us through public forum will also be the victim. Oh, well, I don't like to see the half empty part of a glass.

As my thought wandering, I also have had rude behavior and have spoken out of line. Yeah, I do regret those words. Well, there are part of us that want to blame someone/something for some unfortunate things that happened to us. :P

Childish.

Yeah, am a proud member of People of Childish Behavior.

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...
