There aren’t many eBook readers to choose from in the UK that comes with e-Ink 2 display and Chinese support, and many like the Sony PRS-505 that doesn’t support Chinese ebooks. Since it’s a Linux based device like many others people have made patches to enable Chinese on this reader. Thanks to them you can [...]

My contract with Three UK ended 2 months ago, since I’m still quite happy with my K800i that I got 2 years ago, I thought I will just continue with the contract as what they’re charging me is quite reasonable (£10 per month). Last Sunday, they called me and asked if I want to upgrade [...]

Took some photos a week ago on Sunday morning (06/04/08) from my window (Martins Heron), which is surprisingly the most I’ve seen this winter… Anyway some photos and a few blog posts to share. Terry’s post at Abingdon Venerable Wuling’s blog on Climage Change Forest Hermitage – photos

萬法唯心 - Impermanence
Still a bit early to review this year but why not. On the 1st of Jan this year, I said my aim was to 修行, what I was referring to was really 修心.
一切要從 [修心] 做起,並不是要學做學問,也不是要學練功夫,或是只執著在表相要多麼莊嚴、要背多少經書、比較念佛數量多寡、打坐多久、睡多少、吃多少、功課做多少等等有模有樣的花樣。
The first half wasn’t that great but slowly getting better. This up and down in life is usual and in a [...]

Lookers-on see most of the game.
I once played a game on remembering music tones, the computer play the tones once and we key it in. At first it was very easy, but when it get to later stage, I start to realise I can easily remember the tones when the other person is keying [...]

Went to tried out a lot of other OS and at the end realising what I have is already is the best (for me). I now have 3 OS installed, i.e. Ubuntu, OpenSUSE and Windows. The Gnome 2 in OpenSUSE 10.3 kind of worked but I still prefer Ubuntu 7.04 which is what I had [...]

For some reason I didn’t keep up to date this time, I only found out about the new Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty release being told by a friend. I think my demand for my home PC is dropping, mainly using it for surfing the internet really! Surprisingly the new release doesn’t work for me!
So no luck [...]

Initially I thought this is going to be a long post, but after a while, there isn’t much I need to say… Starting to see that it’s better to say less in most situations but some time a bit of talking is necessary and good when done right. Therefore I try to write a little [...]

I feel very fortunate to get to view the the Relics / Ringsel / Sarira (舍利) at Jamyang Buddhist Centre today. A quote from the Jamyang’s website:
A precious collection of sacred relics of the Buddha and many other Buddhist masters is currently touring the world.
I almost didn’t go today but thanks a friend I decided [...]

I’m sure most of us have heard this news already, sometimes we may wonder there are so many things that are out of our country and is there anything we can do about it? I do believe the mind is strong, with enough people with the same aim, we can make a different! Here is [...]

The title should really be making myself comfortable at work, but “comfortable at work” will do since it’s shorter and I’m already feel quite comfortable. The trigger of me writing this post now and not 3/4 weeks ago is really because my new headphones arrived today, almost forgot I ordered them since it has been [...]

I have now been in Bracknell for almost a month now, it’s very different to London, more like Taunton where I used to live. I would describe the life as simple, enjoying work and no pressure at the moment. Some photos of Bracknell and where I live:

Since the computer at home (HK) has been 5 years old now and all the DVD players and recorders are out of order, we have decided to get a HTPC. It’s cheaper and more fun to put together one myself and that’s what we did. There is no need for the best components out there, [...]

Yesterday, a group of us from London visited the Forest Hermitage. Many thanks to KC for driving me and it was a enjoyable trip. The temple and the surroundings is very nice, but since it was raining yesterday, we didn’t get spend much time outside. It was quite easy to get to from London, not [...]

Went to TRL today, it’s an interesting company with a very nice building, a very “refreshing” building with a lot of natural lighting and plants. The main building is surrounded by some motorway “tracks” for testing which looks like racing tracks from the satellite. Didn’t manage to take any photos, but got some screenshoots from [...]

The new Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn is released today! I’m very impressed by Ubuntu for having a new release every 6 months. I have been using the beta version for a while so I can’t test the upgrade function, which I had problem with before when I upgraded 6.10 to 7.04 beta but that problem [...]
