A Moment With A Stranger

Recently I have been sharing moments with strangers. It feels more of a Hollywood story of the very least. Meeting a random stranger of the opposite gender, either on the subway or on the plane, looking at the same thing, making eye contact, smiling at what we saw and by the end of that ride, we would part, never knowing anything more of each other, then just by the person’s smile and of the moment we shared together. Was it real? I hope so, because I know that the stranger had made my day. In that one  moment I wasn’t just another face in the crowd but something more.

Malwarebytes Software Review

Well I do hope that there are still people checking up on this blog. I know I haven’t been putting much effort into this but well, there is only so much I can write about without boring you to death. Today I decided to write about a certain software which I especially LOVE. Yes I did just say love. Being the self proclaimed computer geek, this is one program which I don’t think I can live without. It is called Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. What does it do? It catches malware, adware and Trojans. I know some people would say that certain anti-viruses would do that too but heck, what’s wrong with having a second line of defense? Is it worth the price? I would say so because it has saved me countless times from problems. The paid version comes with a protection module which would monitor your computer’s behavior. The free version would just come with the scanner and remover. Even the free version has helped me out with a lot of my friend’s computers. You would be surprised sometimes with the amount of infected files it may detect.

The program don’t use up much memory and the Quick scan is also reasonably fast. On a normal hard drive, it would take about 5 to 15 minutes, depending on how many files your computer system has and on SSDs, it would take less than 2 minutes. Pretty awesome I would say. Paid version comes with a scheduler for auto updates and also scheduled scanning.

So just a friendly tip to anyone whose computer is acting a little funny, download the free version and scan your computer, won’t hurt to check it out.

I rate thee – 9/10

Awesome protection tool for anyone and everyone

The Third Parent

Growing up is always tough, doesn’t matter of what gender, race or social class you are. I know I had a pretty rough time. But here is the thing, our parents didn’t have the privilege of the internet. We do fortunately. Coming from an Asian family, kind of open country and just the curiosity of growing up, I have discovered that whatever my parents did not talk to me about, whatever school did not teach me about, I would eventually learn from either friends or the internet. I know where some of you are going with this. I won’t deny not looking it up. Anyways, at the end of the day I would have learned what I wanted to. The friend part wasn't a very good idea either. Just imagine all bullshit your friends would tell you. So I turned towards the internet and that was how I met my third parent. From basic remedies to social skills, basic facts to reference page guides. it seemed that this parent knew it all. Of course some of the information was pretty off, but heck look at how much faith people put into Wikipedia. I recently heard from a talk show of how some celebrity took to the internet on how to care for her newly born child. Well I guess, I have more siblings than I expected from this one parent. Now I wouldn't say this is the best parent, since as we all know, clicking the wrong thing would just cause us to have viruses.

My Lenovo Y580 laptop review

Yay! *celebrates* Yes I got a new toy! Hello people.
So first off, thank you dad for the new lappy!

Okay moving on. So after much research of laptops available below $1000 and fully loaded (end 2012), I finally ended up with an Asus and the Lenovo, well you know which I went with.

The specs in my laptop-

• Intel i7 3630QQM 2.40GHz
• 8GB DDR3 ram
• Windows 7 Basic 64bit
• 15.6" 1920x1080 FHD 
• 128GB SSD + 500GB HDD
• NVIDIA GTX660M
• USB 3 & Backlit Keyboard

So the Y580 is marketed as a multimedia laptop which to me is a dying breed. If you look at laptops these days, its all trying to be thinner and more portable, which ain't something bad but you will have to just live with not having as much anymore. You would have a smaller screen, less ports, less GPU power with built in-graphics.
