Into last.fm
last.fm has just rebooted their UI. I’ve just noticed it out several days ago. I was not into last.fm much before, but their new features has dragged me into it. I was only using their musical statistic feature. I love to see how many track I listen to. It’s quite fun to see how my musical taste changes along time. And of course, I can display my musical chart right on my blog using customizable templates.
Recently I’ve found the journal tool, which has amazed me. it has a little nifty feature called Connection. So you can tag wome word with “artist”, “Track”, “Album” and other musical term. Your journal will then get enhanced. A list of related links will be displayed on the right side of your journal. Uh oh, did I mention that it’s done in a realtime fashion? When you tag a track it will be replaced with a link and a play button. When you tag and artist, it will be replaced with the correct spelling. Japanese artist name will be converted to japanese charset, and Korn will be corrected to KoRn will mirrored “R”. Ain’t that cool?
Xdebug: Into 2.x (CVS)
I’ve just made to isntall xdebug 2.x (cvs version) substitutting xdebug 1.3 in my localhost. Previously, the xdebug compilation was not my problem. It was compiled just fine. No error at all. But when I try to use it as a module, php -v will throw up and error that module can not be loaded for undefined symbol: zend_throw_error_exception.
I was on a a good mood so I took a peek in /usr/include/php/Zend/zend_exception.h. Voila, as what I’ve expected, zend_throw_error_exception was not defined there. A little hack did fine. Below, I replaced the zend_throw_error_exception to zend_throw_exception. Remove extra param, re-comple, and voila. It’s loadable now :).
/* throw an exception if we are in EH_THROW mode
* but DO NOT overwrite a pending exception
*/
if (PG(error_handling) == EH_THROW && !EG(exception)) {
//zend_throw_error_exception(PG(exception_class), buffer, 0, type TSRMLS_CC);
zend_throw_exception(PG(exception_class), buffer, type TSRMLS_CC);
}
Gundam Zaku Kit
W00t!! My first Gundam Model Kit. I’m no big fans of Gundam but after looking at the details, OMG, I may love this Gundam Kit even more.
This Zaku supposed to be the original Zaku, I believe. There’re three more variant which is much more sophisticated and way even cooler ^o^. I got this kit from Kidz Station at Malioboro Mall. There are few other series, one or two :P. But this 1/144 Zaku attracted me best :). Well, got to thank my gf for guiding me into this spot :p. I bought her a doraemon kit (consist of Nobita and Shizuka hang around at a beach). It cost me about 39 thousand rupiahs while Zaku cost me about 89,900 rupiahs. It was discounted from 179 thousands.
Really my lucky day ^^. Hi timmi, I’ve got a Zaku as well ^^.
Xdebug: PHP Debugging Sucks!
This post will be a lil bit messy and not so quite pleasant to read. Bear with it, please. I’ll re-write it as soon as possible. I just don’t want to lose the moment. It’s been there in my head for quite a long time. Happy reading ^^
As usual, we can use rpm -ivh to install the RPM package. And then adjust /etc/php.d/xdebug-1.3.2.ini. Change extension=xdebug.so to extension=/usr/lib/php/modules/xdebug.so. Now, Try php -m on console. You should see xdebug listed below php modules and Zend modules.
Now, how the heck can I use this cool thing? This is what I have in my /etc/php.d/xdebug-1.3.2.ini
; enable Xdebug ;extension=xdebug.so zend_extension=/usr/lib/php/modules/xdebug.so ;xdebug.remote_autostart = on xdebug.remote_enable = on
Debugging did work allrite. See this output from debugclient:
[geek@toni debugclient]$ debugclient Xdebug GDB emulation client (0.7.3) Copyright 2002-2003 by Derick Rethans. Waiting for debug server to connect. Connect This is Xdebug version 1.3.2. Copyright 2002 by Derick Rethans, JDI Media Solutions. (init /home/geek/public_html/gtfw-sso/index.php)
The console is now waiting for my command. The debugger use GDB-ish interface. I’m not familiar with it 
I guess I need to start getting use to it, fast :D.
Resource:
- xdebug 1.3 RPM for Fedora (compatible with my FC4)
- xdebug project

Octavia Sperati
I’d consider Octavia Sperati as a Gothic band, though Wikipedia says it’s a heavy metal band. The vocal has a very cool and black-ish charateristic. And the music is just so gothic. melts my heart away :). Hahahha, I’ve just written an awful review. :p
Anyway, if you love gothic, especially female gothic, you must listen to this band. Charge your life batteries, listen to Octavia Sperati. I’d recommend Icebound for a good start.
Share me waht you think about it here. I love to talk to any gothic lovers (I’m a poser not a real gig gothic)
Brute mail greeting
Pardon me, I’m going to write this using my native language.
Bajinduutttt!! hahahahaha, asem tenan kae. Liat aja subjeknya: selawe wae yo thon, cuma percobaan kok, jangan banyak2 ..heheheh… Aseeenngggg. Mana pake open smtp lagi, jadi gk bisa bales reply 25 kali :D.
Anyway, ini ngingetin aku dengan salam perkenalanku ke ketua agkatan Ilmu Komputer UGM 99. Klo gk salah sekitar 121 imel (berisi puisi protes) aku kirim ke inbox-nya. Whehehehehe, hallo Joy? ;). Cuman waktu itu aku tidak sepintar cah yang membuatku kesel sambil ketawa hari ini. Dulu aku lupa tidak menyamarkan sender-nya, jadinya keliatan semua sendernya dari imelku di student.ugm.ac.id. Hahahah, bodoh :p. Tapi jadinya malah bersahabat erat sama good ol’ fellow yang sekarang S2 di Bandung. Bandung kumaha euy? (bodo amat klo salah bahasanya :p).
Sekali lagi selamat untuk pengirim 25 imel hari ini. Kamu selangkah lebih maju.

Sensi (Sensitive)
Gara-gara sensi, jadinya bertengkar ma pacar dan marahin orang yang ngirim SPAM “laptop gratis Acer Travelmate dari situs Canada”. Dibales pake reply to all dan top posting. Dua-duanya mengakibatkan rasa bersalah. Shimatta!!!! Selalu satu ujungnya gitu, ngapain? Menyalahkan diri sendiri lagi .. T T
For being (over) sensitive, I had a quarrel with my girlfriend, dan also put some “good” words (using reply-to-all and top-posting reply) on someone spammed me with “free Acer Travelmate laptop from Canadian site”. Both actions ended up with blaming _myself_. Why? T T
Shimattaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

Animonster: Attribution
This July edition of Animonster seemed to be a lil bit different than previous ones. Not that I buy it every month :p, it’s just differ than what I usually found. The layout were changed, I like it better. Seemed to be more fluid than previous editions. It felt that there are many new sections, it’s like the magazine got some page addition though I haven’t fully check it. Maybe it’s only my feeling :). Uh oh, and I like this edition editorial words. I hope you guys won’t make it to justify putting more pretty shounen stuff, but more into balance instead.
But there’s some old stuff as well. As usual the cover doesn’t reflect the most exposed story withn the magazine. Yuyu Hakusho (On Stage story) was put as cover image, but got fewer review than Black Cat (On Stage Special story). Why the heck use Yuyu Hakusho for cover instead of Black Cat which fill the Special On Stage. What does special mean?! Further more, the cover image is not .. I don’t know what vocab I could use for it. Not special? To be honest, I wasn’t interested on the cover image when I was in a stall to buy it.
