Crazy Computer Stuff

Saw some really weird stuff on Friendster last night. One of my friends actually login to the site some 37 years ago, which is astonishingly absurd. That’s just one year after the initial APRANET was handed to a private company to be run. A bit of Internet trivia for all of you: back then, there were just four hosts over the network with connectivity of just 50kbps.


The Destiny profile is used as cover-up for my friends' portrait actually :-)

Walau! So what’s you explanation for the strange date I saw:
(1) Friendster is one of the first four hosts
(2) Friendster is one of the first four hosts, and my friend, same age as me, travel back in time and login t Friendster 37 years ago
(3) There was a ghost in my PC
(4) There was a ghost in my friend’s PC
(5) There are many ghosts in Friendster's server
(6) Friendster was fucked up pretty badly the day my friend login

Cast your votes now, and stand a chance to win the grand prize of being another person on this planet as confused as me!

Hours later, I was watching Stargazer Stage II, which is really cool, although some scenes are pretty brutal and disturbing, for me of course. Some really funny stuff caught my eyes, and I almost laughed my head off when the screen stayed on the joke for quite some time.


Such a basic stuff, but the screen stops for five seconds or more. Think we all don't know HTML meh?

Bloody Hell Sunrise! Think the audiences don’t know such basic HTML?

Well, basically, the basic HTML is about a basic image that links to another basic page. The basic problem is that the HTML coding made some basic mistakes as well, which are so basic, they basically won’t display properly when loaded.

Either the people in Sunrise is starting to learn some basic HTML, or the AI of Stargazer is as fucked up as Friendster’s site, some poor HTML coding can also make it work.

Maybe there will some Java or C++ stuff coming out in Phase III. Who knows?
