my blog has been hacked !!!
Jul 1st
yes.. my blog has been hacked !! i thought my blog isn’t important enough to be hacked, but it happened..
i notice someone has hacked into my blog after Google made my blog marked as “Suspicious Website”. I try to open the source code of my blog and i see some 64bit encoded php codes at the top of many files.. Simply removing and replacing all the files and upgrade all the database make my blog now on version 3 of WordPress
Thanks for the cracker..it reminds me again everything is not secure even for an infamous blog like mine
Linux find large file size
Jan 14th
Sometimes after using your linux box, data consumes spaces in your hard drive, then you start to think how to find large file size in linux box, after searching a while then i found the solution for this,the following command will list all files in sorted order in human readable format
find /var -size +10000k -print0 | xargs -0 ls -lSh
the explanation for this is : look for files bigger than 10MB in the /var directory, sort it by biggest file first (descending), and show it in human readable format (MegaBytes)
That’s it.. now you can find large file size in your linux box, simple right
Update again : WordPress 2.8.6
Dec 11th
after blog walking to gadgetboi, apparently he came to visit my post, i must say its a fast respon bro
if not approving your comment i might not open my blog again (due to work
) and wut do u know.. wordpress already release a new version (although its minor), i think it would be a good thing to update juz for precaution
I don’t know bout others, but i usually update my wordpress installation by download the whole package and replacing all the files, since this is minor update i think i would go for automatic update now
Hope it runs smoothly.

Yahoo! finally decided to close GeoCities!
Apr 25th
Yap..First I read about this on an Indonesian php programmer mailing list, then i try to check the validity of that news. When i tried to open my account on geocities (every user on yahoo can register easily for geocities hosting account), it has notifications like this :
Important Announcement
After careful consideration, Yahoo! has decided to close GeoCities later this year.
You can continue enjoying your GeoCities service until then — we just wanted you to let you know about the closure as soon as possible. We’ll share more details this summer. For now, please visit the help center for more information.
I am amazed to read that geocities was acquired for $3.6 billion in 1999, but finally the nature of internet business (i think not only internet but the nature of business) when something can’t produce more or less profitable than it cost then any company will close it down. That happens too to geocities.
I still remember the early age’s I’m introduced with internet on the year 1999, Geocities is the only free hosting I know and I made it as my first online site for HTML lessons. Until late 2005 I can still find some pages contain files to download, especially people who are too lazy to put files on files sharing service (since file sharing service has not been around until few years ago).
Well..I’m going to miss the geocities the old days it was famous
Migrating to ubuntu (again)
Apr 24th
After long time not using linux for desktop (i usually manage linux for servers) , even though i need to moved some of my data to DVD, finally i install (again) ubuntu on my desktop.
Im trying to migrate (again) to linux since i rarely use my desktop pc anymore for work, probably i’ll try to setup my own server own this box and have an experimental things done in this box.
I often says (again) since after i install linux several times on my office desktop, my home desktop, somehow linux has some problems with my hardwares (especially with my office desktop), my guess is my mainboard (ECS NForce 4M-A) or my video card (gigabyte x3100) causes all the problems.
Even yesterday i needed to do several times effort to install, since the installer had some errors several times before it succeeded.
Well, lets see how long this install will last

Tips : Work around for country traffic limit exceeded download at uploadbox.com
Mar 7th
As an internet freak, my search and download activities from file hostings is a daily thing. Recently i got links to download from uploadbox.com, but wuts annoying me is i always get the message “The limit of traffic for your country is exceeded. Please retry later.” After thinking how to solve it using proxy connections, then i try something “stupid”, i clicked on the language settings on top of the page, change it to russian language and u know wut? voilaa…the button to download the file is enabled!!! i can download the file now
i dont know bout visitors from other countries, but i think its worth to try
Simple right?i’m very sleepy now, i think im gonna sleep.
