What is the best way to block bot registration on WordPress? Which plugins should be used? I want a solution that is secure against exploits, as the site will be used as an online store in the future. Screenshot If you’re sick of all the spam, try CleanTalk Anti-Spam. Today is my first day using it. I wish I had known about it long ago. I’M SICK OF THE SPAM REGISTRATION ON WordPress!

Concept 50 Floorstanding Speaker Pair After 918 days, I still have my mind set on these speakers. One day, I’ll get them. That’s a promise.

It’s kinda mind-blowing that Spotify still clings to the tradition of offering MP3 streaming. Is the price okay compared to Apple Music? NOPE. ADD RM1 and get a better deal. Spotify is a smaller company than Apple, and Apple has an advantage in terms of distribution on iPhone. If you want to support Spotify, I suggest subscribing directly on their website, as I…

Setting a target and going from A to Z is hard. The minimum salary in Malaysia is RM1,500, which totals RM18,000 a year. If you set a goal to achieve RM24,000, that’s an extra RM6,000 — a figure that seems difficult, almost impossible. What should we do? We should view it as a long-term goal. Start small, and if you break it down and micro-manage, it’s just a RM16.43 surplus per day.

This is a printing issue that I’ve been experiencing with Office 365 for over a year now. The only time it can print is when I create a new document from scratch. After the next Office 365 update, the document will no longer print. Checking online, the issue appears similar to what others have experience since iOS 13.2. There’s definitely something wrong with the Office software, and I hope…

If you’re working with Numbers and don’t want to store them on iCloud, you can store them directly to OneDrive. This is handy if you have extra cloud storage from Microsoft, such as the 1TB included with a Microsoft 365 subscription. To do this, open the Settings app on your iOS device and tap Numbers. Then, tap Document Storage and select OneDrive. Dropbox, Box, and other third-party cloud…

I’ve updated my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Air yesterday. It’s a .1 update, and I appreciate that Apple was quick to release it. I think it’s a good thing. Personally, I don’t really care for other features that don’t improve my life. Starting this year, I’ve decided to stop buying the latest and greatest. The time has come for me to be the old man who will use the devices until their last…

I’m still waiting for my Denon AVC-X4800H to arrive. In the meantime, I thought it would be a good idea to revisit the HDMI 2.1 topic. This would be my second time watching the video by Gene and Philip Jones that Audioholics recorded 2 years ago. If you’re interested in AV receivers, you might find these videos helpful. They cover a range of topics in 3 part YouTube video, including HDMI…

What bothers you and why? Is it a sign from god?

Dolby Atmos music, music in spatial audio, immersive music, surround sound music, and 3D music are all different terms used to describe the experience of listening to music in a three-dimensional, surround sound environment. I’m listening to Atmos through an entry-level Denon X1700H receiver in a 7.1 setup. I was blown away when I first heard Dolby Atmos music (even with just an entry-level…

As consumers, we make choices. Enthusiasts make reviews based on those choices. Manufacturers make better products based on the reviews, and in return, we get better products. However, a good abundance of products can sometimes come at a cost. Sometimes, those good but cheap products are treated as bad products. Question of the day: Do we really need a DAC when almost everything we have in our…

It’s all about Bandwidth.

This is the first time I heard about Baetis Audio. You can watch the video interview by The Bast Blast thanks to T2 user @evacassidy_talk who pointed me to the video. My first impression watching the interview and trying to understand the founder’s ideas around his creations reminded me of my days with HTPCs. I used to spend hours tinkering with my HTPC, trying to get it just right. I loved the…

I was listening to YouTube reviews of the Q Acoustics Concept 50 for a few hours while working, glancing over at them occasionally. I have to say, I’m sold. It’s interesting to know that reviewers find the performance of this small floor-standing speaker sounds phenomenally good! The thought of having a pair of floor-standing Q Acoustics Concept 50 speakers at home keeps playing in my head. If…
