No One - Alicia Keys



I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try try to divide something so real
So till the end of time I'm telling you there ain't no one

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

反樸歸真?




本來冇諗住又去呢個位到影相,事關呢個位已經影過無數咁多次,有d悶。不過今日實在太好天,兼且又順路,所以帶部傻瓜機去影下。

八、十年前冇咩人會特登去呢個位影,最多只係遊客經過用傻瓜機影下留念。今日上到去,見到幾十人係到等日落影相,仲要九成人都係用DSLR…真係勁!反觀我自己用傻瓜機但係配鬼死咁大枝o既 Gitzo 腳,有d攪笑~




太陽能電筒?



係太陽能燈先真。日間吸收太陽光為電池差電,夜間就著燈發光。

太陽能燈本身冇咩特別,但係佢又好有創意咁張盞燈放係一個半透明 jar 入面…出黎效果就好似捉左d瑩火蟲入去咁…好正!

之前係某網上商店見過有得賣,不過好貴(幾十蚊成本,但係賣成幾百蚊!)想 DIY,不過又懶。早兩日經某網友提起,今日經過某店時終於忍唔住要敗家… orz

Don't shoot! Let them burn!!

為早幾日的「是日金句」解下畫。

事源忽然又諗起 Saving Private Ryan 中,一句我覺得幾震撼的對白…

套戲開場後第一場戰爭場面,就係盟軍登陸諾曼第一役。一幕幕子彈及血肉橫飛的場面。開始時由於德軍有地利,所以盟軍方面傷亡慘重。

Tom Hanks 一隊人幾經辛苦,終於打到高地,攻到德軍的 bunker。為左避免強攻入 bunker 而令到自己一方有傷亡,佢地用當時常用的一招:炸開 bunker 的入口後,係外面用噴火槍向內噴火,將入面o既德軍連人同 bunker 一齊燒左佢。

咁當入面d德軍個個著曬火,係另一面跳出 bunker 碌落山坡時,外面有個盟軍回頭大聲向同袍叫:

   Don't shoot! Let them burn!!

意思即係,唔好開槍殺左呢d德軍,如果唔係就便宜左佢地。由得佢地活生生燒死…

睇完套戲之後,句 "let them burn"久唔久就會係我腦袋中浮出來。

原來憎一樣野時,你係唔會由佢走得咁爽的說。 @_@

平到冇朋友

之前試用 QuickTime 將高清片轉俾 PS3 用,發覺部舊 notebook 得o個 1G ram 真唔多夠。於是趁今日出城,順手買兩條 1G ram 換左用開o個兩條 512M。 唔洗四舊水攪掂,依家d ram 真係平到冇朋友。不過問題係:就算 upgrade 左 ram,呢部舊 notebook 仲可以玩幾耐?

PS. 現有 2x 512M DDR2-667 SODIMM 多左,有冇邊個親朋戚友有用?

Suggested to check the "Preserve aspect ratio" and select "Letterbox". Set Frame Rate as "Current". In Video Options, choose "Best Quality (Multi-pass)" to increase the quality (but double the encoding time).

黑仔

黑仔。即係係大熱天時,為左部老爺吸塵機,四圍咁搵邊到有吸塵袋賣。而終於係某門市部,有位好心售貨員姐姐係倉底搵到 last 一包,買完跟住番到屋企換上新袋後準備吸塵時,部機開唔夠十秒個摩打就打柴~!

Firefox 3

Firefox 3 Release Candidate 1 is out now

Notes to self for compiling the source:

  • On my XP machine with VC++ 2005 Express, need to disable the Vista SDK support
    ac_add_options --disable-vista-sdk-requirements

  • Need to remove the /EHsc compiler optimization (it was used to tell compiler to assume extern C functions never throw exceptions)
