Killing Running Program Quicker with XKILL in Ubuntu

by 7:08 AM
Hi. This is just a quick post about a trick to kill a not responding program without even having to find it's process id using terminal / system monitor. Just run ALT+F2 to launch "Run Application" (similar to WINDOWS+R in Windows) and type in "xkill" (without the quotation marks) and your mouse pointer / cursor will turn into an X pointer instead of arrow and just click on any program window that you want to kill. That's all. :) P/S: Please be aware

Connecting to MySQL Database using Command Line (Terminal)

by 1:32 PM
Hi, I am not a fan of using Phpmyadmin to run simple commands in mysql. Sometimes, things can be seen better using command line interface since they are less cluttered. So, here's how to login to mysql using command line. I assume you already have at least one database already constructed in MySQL. Just run mysql -u USERNAME -pPASSWORD -h HOSTNAMEORIP DATABASENAME Please note that there is no space between the argument / parameter -p and the password. So, if your mysql user

Fixing Kali Linux 2.0 Slow Internet Connection in Parallels Desktop 10

by 12:05 PM
Hi. Past two days I have had the opportunity to try Kali Linux 2.0 (Sana) in my Parallels and when I tried to do apt-get update and apt-get upgrade as well as apt-get dist-upgrade, the connection is really slow. I was getting about 15KB/s download speed and my Internet connection speed is actually about 3-5MB/s. Which means, my download speed should be 250-600 KB/s. This is really frustrating. I tried investigating the problem. At first, I thought this has to be something wrong

by 12:16 PM
This is not really a review but I would like to say a few words about this custom ROM. Please note that I just got my hands on this phone 3 days ago and this is the first custom ROM installed in my OnePlus One. The installation went very smooth. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP custom recovery (I really love this one and been using it since 4 years ago), flashed the latest OnePlus One firmware dated 15th May 2015, flashed the

OnePlus Two - The Era of Paying a Fortune for a Flagship Model is Over

by 10:36 AM
Well, actually that's over since the OnePlus One is launched. But this newer model is quite more interesting. Yesterday, I managed to watch the first ever VR product launch of a smartphone and that's very impressive. OnePlus surely got balls to do that and now gsmarena.com already updated the  detail specifications of the phone. The only drawback of this phone is it  does not have NFC. Some are not happy with this but I'm fine with that. For those who are gonna brag

Terms of Service; Didn't Read

by 10:57 AM
Quoted from the About page of the website: “Terms of Service; Didn't Read” (short: ToS;DR) is a young project started in June 2012 to help fix the “biggest lie on the web”: almost no one really reads the terms of service we agree to all the time. Background. The rough idea behind ToS;DR emerged during the 2011 Chaos Communication Camp near Berlin, with people from Unhosted a movement to create web apps that give users control over their valuable user data and privacy.

It has been a long time again since I wrote the last post. Well, time is not a friend of mine. Too many things happens and I don't really have the heart and enough time to post here. And I don't have time for a long cliche introduction either. So, this is it. This is a script i found on the Internet. I believe it belongs to Samy. His site has some interesting stuff. Be sure to take a peek. It's a Perl
