Chocolate Fondue at home

After visiting Café du Chocolat near Regent, Bandung, I tried to make chocolate fondue at home.
Well as you guess, making fondue is very very simple. You just need to melt a block of chocolate (such as dark cooking chocolate), and tadaaa…
You can dip almost anything, any food, into the melted chocolate.

Yuk_Miskol Application

Miskol is an indonesian pronounciation for the word "missed call". It is also a term for calling (dialing) someone and terminating the call before the receiver takes up the call. 

I made this application, just for fun. Yuk_Miskol is an application to "miskol" a defined phone number periodically. Maybe you will think, it is a kind of simple (and useless? :p) program. But hey.. I enjoy making it! :D

Specification:
- made using Visual Basic 2008
- has a fixed missed calls frequency: 2 calls/minute

You know, Of course I wont give you the binary program nor the source code, because there's a huge possibility that you're gonna use it for something bad (e.g. giving a terror to somebody :D), kekekeke.

So just enjoy the screenshot, ok? 
(Except if you have special offer, we'll talk about it later.. :D Hahahaha..)

Viva Sardines!

I like sardines, but there's a common sense that preserved food is not good for our health.

Well, this is my first sardines with home-made sauce. I guess this is healthier than the original sauce. You just need garlic, onion, (one or two) tomatoes, and salt.

Ow.. and a little water!

Yeah, that easy.. but it taste great :D
Delicious..

Automatic detect COM Port List

This is for you (and for me, as my personal note :D) who are using Visual Basic 2008.

Get in touch with Serial Programming?
Maybe you are wondering how to detect list of communication port so that the user wouldn’t have to type it manually in the text box anymore.

Step 1:
Drag and drop Combo Box from Toolbox.
If you don't see your Toolbox panel, just press Ctrl+Alt+x, or go find it in View-Toolbox.
Go to the properties, and name it, such as "COMPortsBox".

Step 2:
Add these lines to the top of source code.
Imports System
Imports System.IO.Ports
Imports System.Threading.Thread

Step 3:
When load the main form, add these lines
  Private Sub MaxiTester_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
  For Each COMString As String In My.Computer.Ports.SerialPortNames ' Load all available COM ports.
  COMPortsBox.Items.Add(COMString)
  Next
  End Sub

Ps: MaxiTester is the name of main form.

Last step:
Try to run it, and smile :)
