Puisi Orang IT
Langit masih hitam,
hanya suara JANGKRIK dan dengung hardisk menemani.
kulihat angka di ujung Menubar berkedip 4:18AM
aku masih di sini, menatap 2 kata yang kubenci,
Illegal Operation
Gemetar jariku di atas papan QWERTY
menelusuri baris-baris kode yang tumpang tindih.
Nafas sesak memikirkan operasi bitwise,
air mata pun meleleh terbakar 2 juta pixel dari layar LCD.
Di mana salahku?
Ingin rasanya kutekan Command-Q (Alt-F4 di Windows),
sejenak lupakan deadline yang menunggu-Q
dan merebah standby
kemudian login lagi..

Benernya grogi mau nulis ini. Hubungan-nya sama agama, jadi kuatir nanti kesannya ngesruh, trus urusan jadi panjang. Ini hanya sekedar wacana, opini pribadi. Kebetulan pas trend film 2012 yang dibintangi John Cussack lagi banyak dibicarakan orang. (imdb link di sini: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1190080/)...
Banyak yang bilang kalo takdir itu udah ditentukan. Beberapa di antaranya: jenis kelamin, ras, kekayaan, jodoh, dan mati/kiamat (pun) udah ditentukan. Bener gitu?
Sometimes your kids or wife wanted to use the computer, but you are using it (and there's only one computer! yes, life is that hard hehe..) This next trick is surely fun thing to do with your dual monitor and a couple of spare keyboard and mouse. Psst.. that way, you can virtually have 2 computers!
I don't know about other Virtual Machine, but I'm using VirtualBox. Maybe VMWare or Parallel Desktop can do it too, I haven't tried it. Let me know if anyone knows. (FYI, I'm doing it on my MacBook Pro running Leopard and Windows XP64).
The Setup
What you need:
- of course an extra monitor attached to your computer VGA Out,
- VirtualBox software, get it FREE for personal use here: http://www.virtualbox.org/,
- Windows OS (haven't tried other than XP64 though),
- an extra mouse and a keyboard (preferably Bluetooth, but theoretically you can use USB too).
Ok, let's begin!
We live in a paranoid world. We all know that Information Technology (eg. cellphone, internet, gps) is one giant two edges sword.
But some of us are not that paranoid I guess. Let's take a look at the following Twitter screenshot. This user tweeting at heart beat and every tweet attached with a link to it's location!
Someone is following you. Literally..
I blurred it out, but you could notice the tweets are only 2 or 3 words sentences. "baby, I love U..", "taking a shower now", "at home", ..
per-minute basis, plus the link to the location on the maps. Hey! You're on public timeline, tweeple!
Imagine this user timeline:
"I'm cute, why he cheated! http://myloc.me/abcd" 2 hours ago.
"Broke up with my boyfriend http://myloc.me/efgh" 1 hour ago.
"It's late night. Going home http://myloc.me/ijkl" 1 hour ago.
"Damn waiting for the bus, alone. http://myloc.me/mnop" 5 minutes ago.
...
Advice:
Don't do that. Public pin your location wisely. Not every tweets worth location mapping, and not everything worth tweeting! (Ugh.. maybe even this post isn't worth tweeting either hahahah..)
Di dunia kerja korporasi kapital, ada bisnis dan karir. Urusannya sama uang dan kuasa. Yang namanya murni ikatan batin atau dedikasi, jangan harap ada. Kalo kata orang sih "nggak ada teman sejati. yang ada kepentingan pribadi".
Para bawahan, sama-sama di bawah, nasibnya sama keinjek. Tapi pas ada kesempatan untuk "nyeliding koncone dewe" ya mesti dilakukan. Daripada di-sliding duluan. Ya to?
Buat yang naif, masih lugu dan punya hati, tunggu sampai 10 atau 50 taun lagi untuk naik grade. Bagaimanapun besarnya dedikasimu, kalo bukan Calvin Klein ya gak bisa maju.
Calvin Klein*?
*orang yang sukses dan bangga sekali dengan namanya ditulis di celana dalem orang lain..
