The true emptiness

It is very important for me to express to you how much you really mean to me. I wish I could do this in person exquisitely. But since we are physically separated by miles of emptiness, this expression must come in the form of letters such as this.


Life seems to be full of trials of this type which test my inner strength, and more importantly, my devotion and love for you. After all, it is said that “True Love” is boundless and immeasurable and overcomes all forms of adversity. In truth, if it is genuine, it will grow stronger with each assault upon its existence.


I am happy this way. Life is so kind for giving someone like you as my sole inspiration. My love has been assaulted many times, and I am convinced that it is true because the longer I am away from you, the greater is my yearning to see you again.


Across the miles, I send to you my tender love and my warm embrace. Thank you for being one of my life’s sweetest blessings.

Moving on

So I bought my self a 2.5″ hard drive enclosure for about 750 bucks. I wish I have my own tools for constructing a device as such. Instead of going for a 2GB USB flash drive, I chose to salvage the 30GB hard drive of an incapacitated laptop. Cool isn’t it? Though relatively slower than a typical USB flash drive, the storage capacity outweighs it. [To God] Thanks for being there always.

Bin to hex converter in 16-bit DOS assembly

Just a quick code like putting your keyboard where your brain is. There should be another way of doing this. I hate this code. start: xor al, al xor bl, bl xor cl, cl mov dl, 4 ; use dl as counter input: mov ah, 00 int 16h cmp ah, 1ch je exit cmp al, '0' jb input cmp al, '1' ja input convert: mov cl, dl dec cl ; dl - 1 sub al, 30h ; get original value shl al, cl ; place in the appropriate bit position or bl, al ; save in bl dec dl ; prepare for the next bit jnz input ; must be 4 bits cmp bl, 9 ja letter jbe number letter: add bl, 37h ; because 'A' - 37h is 0Ah jmp here number: add bl, 30h ; because '0' - 30h is 00h here: call display jmp start display: mov ah, 02h ...
