Breaking Fajr : A Muslimah's Twilight : http://maniacmuslim.com/breaking-fajr-a-muslimahs-twilight/

As usual, another brilliant piece from the genius Hamzah Moin 🙂

Some favorite quotes :

He was so handsome that even Abdul Wahab was lowering his gaze

" “My parents had immigration issues… they were deported back to Transylvania ” he added
(yep, I lost it there 😀 )

"  _It’s okay_ … being a vampire has allowed me to live a long and pious life ”

Idris explained , “ I looked up the fiqh when I converted (to Islam) and I found out that eating humans is Haram ”
(yep, lost it again there)

Abdul Wahab smirked. “ _I looked up the fiqh and marrying a dead guy is Haram ”
Zahra started crying

Bwahahaha…. genius !

Peraturan / Undang-Undang baru di Jepang mengancam para pembajak musik & mulai diberlakukan……. dan, penjualan lagi langsung drop. 

Dikutip dari https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20121109/13423720996/draconian-downloading-law-japan-goes-into-effect-music-sales-drop.shtml

" the music industry get so obsessed with "stopping piracy" that they miss the fact that their main job should be to increase revenue "

Undang-undang yang baru ini sukses membuat takut semua orang, sehingga bahkan mereka jadi tidak berani membeli musik dari sumber-sumber yang legal sekali pun.

Goggle & Acer meluncurkan Chromebook C7 🙂  tidak cukup dengan gebrakan-gebrakan seperti Nexus 7, Nexus 10, Nexus 4, dan Samsung Chromebook; Google terus melanjutkan serangannya dengan Acer C7 Chromebook seharga hanya US$ 199 ! Wow 😀

Acer C7 Chromebook ini mirip seperti Samsung Chromebook; tapi disk space nya 320 GB (Samsung: 16 GB SSD) dan baterainya lebih cepat habis / 3,5 jam (Samsung: 6,5 jam) – karena, menggunakan prosesor Intel Core (Samsung: prosesor Exynos / ARM-based)

Timingnya tepat sekali, yaitu pada saat gegap gempita Windows 8 🙂

Mudah-mudahan seri laptop Chromebook & tablet Nexus (akhirnya) bisa men*dobrak monopoli Windows*. Mari kita saksikan bersama-sama !

Just had a strange incident with MySQL's replication

General
Background story : the master server have a lot of databases. But all of them have a table named 'online' with the same structure.

When I tried to replicate that server to another, the process always fails will error message " Duplicate entry … table online at somedatabase" 

I reset the master several times, and rebuilt the slave multiple times as well – still same problem.

The solution ? 
Excluding the table from being replicated, by putting this line in the slave's /etc/mysql/my.cnf :

replicate-wild-ignore-table = %.online

Restart the slave – voila, master-slave replication works smoothly 🙂

Why ? My guess is something with the table's structure. Because ALL these tables only have 1 record in it :-/ so, what duplicate entry ?? 🙂 #LOL

General,
Thanks to Linux & Android, we're finally free from Intel – Windows #monopoly 🙂 and if Intel is not careful, it may end up completely irrelevant.

AMD is doing a lot of smart moves these days, starting with their deliciously powerful + cheap Fusion platform. The next year should be very interesting.

Reshared post from +Linux News Here

In the microprocessor wars, #ARM and its many partner allies have always had the most units sold in the market. But Intel, which can sell chips for $100 or more, has always had the lion’s share of the profits in a $30 billion-plus industry. With the growing popularity of smartphones and tablets, ARM is a rising star while Intel’s core PC market is weakening. And this week, Intel rival Advanced Micro Devices announced it would move beyond Intel-compatible chips to making ones based on ARM designs.

Will ARM become more powerful than Intel by using less power? (interview)
Intel and ARM are fighting the world war of the chip market. The battle is playing out in servers, smartphones, tablets and PCs.

"We left the boxes in the village. Closed. Taped shut. No instruction, no human being. I thought, the kids will play with the boxes! Within four minutes, one kid not only opened the box, but found the on/off switch. He'd never seen an on/off switch. He powered it up. Within five days, they were using 47 apps per child per day. Within two weeks, they were singing ABC songs [in English] in the village. And within five months, they had hacked Android. Some idiot in our organization or in the Media Lab had disabled the camera! And they figured out it had a camera, and they hacked Android."

#Android jobs are booming, while the number of Apple iOS vacancies has levelled off, the world's largest online jobs survey has revealed.

Using data from 230,614 positions posted in Q3, Freelancer.co.uk saw 16 percent growth in the number of Android jobs, at 4,795. Meanwhile, the number of iOS jobs rose a comparatively small eight percent to 5,509.

In the previous quarter, the number of Apple jobs shot up by 30 percent. To an extent, this quarter's comparatively feeble growth came about as developers waited for the release of iOS6 in September. But there's no doubt that the poor reception for the iPhone 5 had an effect.

Android jobs rocket as iOS jobs stagnate
