Why can't Malaysia have TiVo... why.... sad.gif

We got what, there....that Astro Max? laugh.gif

No point having Tivo in Malaysia, nothing worth recording or programmed-to-record here anyway. If you miss a show, you can always catch it later , sometimes even as long as a week later!

If you're a fan of AF, then I have no comment. I hate all reality-based TV shows with an unbridled level of hatred. Such fakery and nonsense.

My house tara Astro. tongue.gif So go figure. If having a TiVo along with the channel from US cable stations is simple over there, I'd bet I'd cry most of the time.

Me want Robot Chicken...

Actually, you dont need Tivo here. If people outside US can access Hulu.com, and have fast internet line, you can totally skip recording and just stream the content you need. Both these criterias (Hulu outside US, and Malaysia's shitty internet line) hampers this.

They filter based on geographical location. You can try bypassing it using HotspotShield, but that proxy only allows 5GB data allocation before it disconnects or chokes your line to the point where streaming is unbearably slow.

Which reminds me, the same goes to Youtube also right? because I tried watching one of the movies available, but I couldn't get it as it said not available in my country. Same thing?

Yup. Which is why we have our TV Show group. This totally negates all needs to have the right Geo IPs, and all that hurdles put by these broadcasting companines for viewers outside America. For example, I'm a huge Lost fan, so when the show has new episodes, the guys/girls in the group come to my place and we watch it together. Others have Battlestar Galactica, House, Heroes, 24, Desperate Housewives(one of the girls are doing this tongue.gif), Prison Break, Dexter, Family Guy and South Park. Whoever among us collects these shows, whenever there's a new episode available, would arrange a TV Show night for the rest of the gang to come over and watch at their homes. Of course, seeing how this may intrude into the privacy aspect, our group is a close-knitted group, we all know each other and no one is a stalker/pervert/rapist or anything like that. tongue.gif

I would hold the Lost TV Show nights at my place, as well as Family Guy. The rest covers for the other shows, but some of use have overlapping interests, for example, me and another guy Curtis are huge Battlestar Galactica fans, so if he cant organize a TV Show night, I'd take over. After all, we got our episodes from the same source, iTunes. biggrin.gif

String, if I buy the pass for ITunes, could I use it here? As in Malaysia. laugh.gif

Yes. I have been doing it since the second year Lost started. Make sure you get the iTunes Gift card for the right region. The US iTunes Store are the most up-to-date. Example, the new Lost episode I got tonight? It has just finished airing on ABC tonight in US as well, it is THAT FAST! The latest you will get is one day after broadcast there.

The question is, does everyone still feel compelled to go to the States after the current Selsema Baby? The flight I'm gonna operate is the same flight number that gets the "illustrious" treatment for the first AH1N1 case here. Masih mau kah?

Cockpit nothing much really. If I have the choice, I'd rather be the passenger sitting on Business/First Class. No fun doing work when everyone else is relaxing.

P/S: Note I say Business/First Class. Economy seating for 12-13hrs will give you cramped joints and DVT in no time!

Useless fact #1: Kingda Ka platform launch? 206 km/h in 3.5 seconds.

Useless fact #2: Kingda Ka climb? 456 feet .Taller than the Statue of Liberty.

Fact #1 + Fact #2 = Getting high without injecting artificial drug or drinking yourself silly. Adrenaline provides that "high" experience. rclxms.gif

Thread move like bullet train.

Kyo, staff price for ERL is RM15.

I may be doing updates at the Kirim thread I make in regards of the process of home quarantine should I get flagged down for it after my MH091 flight from New York on the 3rd next month. Kena pagar dalam rumah, takbleh kluar. Free one week holiday. laugh.gif That is, if there is a case of AH1N1 on my flight back from NY lah.
