Hello hello! New post haha :D but i guess not many people read la... got lots of random things to say though. I am finally gonna cultivate a habit of reading newspapers hahahha! Hopefully it works la, since I have so much time after dinner and I might as well spend it doing something useful rather than slacking all over. And yess today i saw an article regarding Intellectual Property (IP). It was saying like how 40% of the Singaporeans today still have computers 'chugged with pirated software' and how a survey done revealed that most people still do not, and yes i do agree, don't give a damn about piracy (including me actually :P ).
Well first right.. from the perspective of a 14-going-on-15 guy, it is quite apparent to me that those who buy Tank's albums are those crazy female fans studying in secondary schools or jcs (ya okay guys too :D), and those who watch movies are usually people who's ages range from like 13 to urm... 26 the most? After 26, most people i think, will be too caught up in their work to do this kind of stuff! Look, look look!! You are going after the wrong people SIGHHH. The people who are doing the downloads are the students hellooo *wow i am accusing myself!!*... and why do they download? Of course if you want an album you don't just go to your parents and demand money to buy rightt! You don't have the money and yet you love songs so much hmm. How? Dl laa. Another thing is like, not many people have been caught for this yet. I mean, if it is publicized that there are 10 people who are caught every single day in Singapore, and yes in Singapore only, many students will probably freak out and stop dling. All i see in the newspapers are reports of a number of people getting caught over a few weeks time, and this 'number' is like less than 20, do you think students will care, really? The relevant authorities should like make it a compulsory thing to catch like 20 people every single day if they really want to deter people. This will definitely stop piracy!
But then again, there are only two ways to get people to do something you want. The above was by punishing... so the other way would be rewarding. Yea the companies have been doing really well by adding bundles to music or DVD albums that you can't get through dling. But to add to that, you really need to deter people from dling la. Yay done.

LIKE WHAT THE HELL LAA. This is a living example of a guy who probably failed his history essay writing test. This is a response to MM Lee's dialogue about the 'not an ordinary country' thing. Okay i do agree it was quite insensitive, but you, MR RAMAN ISMAIL, you are going beyond the line! Can you seriously go brush up your bloody intepretation skills before accusing us of anything? Or at least, say, "I think they said this because they think they are better than everyone, but of course they may have meant something else." Sighh. Can't stand him man.
next i saw the 'super-earth' discovery haha! Supposedly the scientists found a new planet that might be able to support life, about 20 light-years away, and the exciting thing is that we are able to reach it. Coolll! okay now we fly back to earth, to singapore, to ri and to class 3D!!
