Am I only the one who have K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies figures in my country? (ID)

So, it's been a while since I have messing around with my entire modern day collection of Plants vs. Zombies toys and figures. Based on my certain posts about them that I obviously posted before, I'm gonna spot one of the toy brands, which is the K'NEX ones, yet again. I said that because I already explained about why I bought those figures instead of cheapo casual toys or figures that I can get them way easier in general, but this time, it's time to brag myself about am I only the one who actually have those particular figures in my whole country (Indonesia). Well, not so much... But I have to explain this anyway.

Started off by a throwback about somebody who claimed to have K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies by commenting them directly in those design images of the plant figures on it's own Facebook page of the whole Plants vs. Zombies game itself. I found those comments during I obviously wandering around in Facebook for quite a lot in those days. He/she said if they actually had almost all of them exactly like in those images, except for the transparent dark green Bonk Choy and Snow Pea... From what I checked to his/her account, he/she lived somewhere in West Java, Indonesia (probably he/she lives in Cirebon or Karawang, but I didn't know). However, after I checked his/her whole account, there were no actual pictures of them at all, which meant he/she actually didn't have any of them at all. I didn't even know if he/she did some mini hoax to them, but yeah... That's how I actually discovered him/her if he/she clearly didn't have them at all, conclusively.

Another throwback about this (even though it's irrelevant to this post) is the fact there were other people who have at least one or few figures of them, but they weren't live in the exact same country, preferably in entire of the whole continent of Asia. Here are fine examples for them:

• A toy collector Instagrammer from Thailand had 4 K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 1 figures that he obtained them back in 2014. Those figures are Sunflower, Bonk Choy, Basic Zombie, and Mummy Zombie.
• A guy from Malaysia (from what I checked his account) captured his children playing some Plants vs. Zombies during a trip somewhere in Hong Kong, spotted his K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Peashooter in it that they brought into there.
• A female teenager from South Korea had 2 of those, which are just good old Peashooter and Sunflower duo, respectively.
• A Vietnamese teenager had a box of K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 2, yet he also opened all 8 blind bags that came with them. Although this one did count, he actually did this in the US due to the fact he actually got them from Walmart from what I asked through comments in his YouTube video of it. Unfortunately though, he deleted his video of it later on.
• A small family in China opened 3 K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 1 blind bags, which were all Bonk Choys.

Majority of them that they got in their hands were occurred before I got few of mine, except few of them. As of the one that I own, here are my throwbacks to each of the time during I obtained them per each of the figures or sets:

• First, in September of 2015, I obtained the whole set of K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 2 from e-Bay for 60 bucks. There was a missing piece on one of those figures, which was the Snow Pea's stem was missing, yet the blind bag that lurked it was simply stapled.
• Then, in April of 2016, I obtained a K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 1 Sunflower from e-Bay for roughly 40 bucks.
• Then, in July of the same year during I obtained that Sunflower figure, I also obtained another K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 1 blind bag, except it was the Bloomerang one for roughly similar amount of price as the Sunflower.
• Then, in May of 2017, I obtained a K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 3 Fire Peashooter from e-Bay for roughly 35 bucks.
• And then, in  October of 2017, I obtained yet another K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 1 blind bag that contained my most favorite plant among the other 4 figures that I wanted, the Peashooter. I paid roughly for 43 bucks for it.
• Lastly, in November of 2018, I got a special giveaway gift for FREE from a popular toy reviewer YouTuber nicknamed SquirrelStampede, who gifted me 4 K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 Series 4 blind bags, which are all plants (Peashooter [the one that I wanted the most], Rose, Kernel Corn, and Citron). He also sent me 6 K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Series 3 blind bags too, which one of them contained another Fire Peashooter inside.

In conclusion, am I only the one who actually have those particular figures in my whole country (Indonesia)? Obviously yes. The fact I'm only the one who actually own several figures of them (mainly for the plants that I wanted the most) makes the huge difference between me and typical people who also owns casual Plants vs. Zombies toy figures that they have, but I don't think if I eventually deserve a thing called "Nobel Peas Prize" achievement for good, based from somebody who commented in one of K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies reviews by the same YouTuber who gifted me certain of Plants vs. Zombies figures that I have now... I know if my country doesn't have a lot of Plants vs. Zombies fans like I do because majority of the people in my country just obsessed by anything based on their latest trends, such as popular modern mobile games (for example, Mobile Legends, Lords Mobile, Free Fire, Genshin Impact, and so on), Korean TV shows and music videos that they also obsessed recently, and other stuffs that they casually enjoy as well. I know, everybody has their own obsession and hobbies, so it's fair to see anything about those with my actual eyes in here, including me with bunch of my Plants vs. Zombies stuffs that I own, or even my fellow fan lovers with their obsessed franchises per each of them too, so it doesn't matter for me about them anyway... So there you have it for yet another explanation post about messing around with my modern day Plants vs. Zombies collection, preferably spotted on one of the toy brands that I already explained in here, and thanks for reading this post.

Another weird YouTube's bot comments...

"These particular comments like that have started couple years ago. So the culprit were creating the porn site via Google Sites, and after that, the culprit were buying the domain links (e.g. x, y, etc.) and then spread it on YouTube through the comments box by post the video duration and certain porn site links. It's some legit and I really have no idea what purpose it is serving."-Risky Juliandief

Yes, really! As what I clearly showed in my 3 pictures of those of those weird YouTube's bot comments right there. It is pretty much similar to "Wanna be friends" bot comments that I encountered from a while ago in terms about how any of the random idiot culprit bots posted them right off the bat in every single of my latest videos that I uploaded on YouTube, sometimes. Except this time, any of the idiot culprit bots who commented like that are way too random, unlike the "Wanna be friends" ones that they did, which were less random (well, it was random but not too random like this one). For the way how they commented in every single of my new videos that I uploaded on YouTube, here's the formula about the weird comments that I'm talking about in here: 

(random timestamp of the video)

(random S*** site) 

I know if this type of bot comments looks even more sketchy than the previous one that they did, but from what I discovered through some YouTube videos that explains those bot comments, those wild site URL links are leads to some sort of a S***** hot dating porn "sus" site (well, majority of those wild links are leads to them, but the rest of them are just leads to something other than those "sus" sites, like an online shop or something different). Here are few YouTube videos from the channels who explained them, but not all of the links that they discovered, because all of the links that one of the guys clicked are always leads to the same site from one way to another.

This one, yeah... It leads to 404. Good!

And here's the guy who clicks one of those wild porn "sus" sites directly. 

WARNING: There are some F****** nude S*** pictures or images in those links of these videos that he opened there.

Now, in relation about this issue, how about the same bot comments that also appears in both of my YouTube channels that I have? Well, I've just let them be like that without any certain action by replying them, because I've just don't bother to reply to them anyway. All I have to do with them when that occurs next time is obviously report them as an unwanted spam, and that's literally it. Just like what I did to those "Wanna be friends" mumbo-jumbo that got solved, either I deleted them immediately or reported them as an unwanted spam per each of those comments, I also treat these bot comments similarly to that one as well, but slightly more improved due to the fact how random they are (again, more random than the "Wanna be friends" ones).

Well, there you have it for this post that explains of another weird YouTube's bot comments that appears lately, especially when I upload every single of my latest videos, sometimes. I hope you can pay full attention for this, and thanks for reading this post.

I'm sorry, our Plants vs. Zombies lovers 4... No more for my favorites... 😭

(Original picture's courtesy: Twothless [YouTube])

Oh dear... I can't believe it if I made this "I'm sorry, our Plants vs. Zombies lovers" post yet again. It's because there's no update of what Plants vs. Zombies stuffs that I will hunt as of nowadays. Speaking about what I explained in my previous post of the same title that I made from a while ago, I couldn't even get those missing figures that I STILL wanted until now. But, because of how broke I am, yet the pandemic destroyed their existence, I COULDN'T even get those things AT ALL! Enough for my mumbo-jumbo rant about what I kept remembering those figures that I couldn't get them in my hand yet, so here's my continuation story about how I STILL COULDN'T even get those things, right away.

Yet again, I keep featuring that one particular figure that I wanted, which is that one.  I know if that one was existed since mid-to-late of 2017 until somewhere in very late of 2019.  FYI, it was  featured in two of the blind bag series that featured it, which was Series 5 and 6 that K'NEX released them in those days. But, the thing is, I still couldn't able to get them as soon as possible, it's because they costed so darn expensive on e-Bay or Amazon, which made the matters about this even worse than before... For the sake of this post about the YouTube reviews about the blind bag series that featured it, here are bunch of them that I showed them below:

Not being like a complete toy-savvy idiot, but look at those reviews that I clearly shown in here! So many reviews about how they excited to get one (or some) of those things in every toy reviewer's hand! Except for me, in fact. Even though I also have few other figures that exactly what they reviewed, but still... I can't have that! I've tried so many ways to get at least one of those things, but the answer is a giant NO! Here are my conclusions about why I still COULDN'T get that figure:

• I e-mailed to the K'NEX company itself to request that figure. But, due to how retarded I did to them, they are no longer producing and distributing any specific OEM figures for them anymore.
• You may recognize that local online shop that connected to the e-Bay that was once available for few years that I told to you in my previous post that I mentioned it few times before. Last time, I just simply didn't bother check any of those from e-Bay through it anymore due to bugs and server errors that it had... Due to that, that local online shop got shut down completely in September of the last year, which was a big unfortunate for that.
• Somebody who also a fan of Plants vs. Zombies told me if I could do it by asking somebody who specialized about this issue in Discord. I tried to search it, but none of them found.
• I even e-mailed to most of those toy review YouTubers who reviewed them in those days, including that popular YouTuber who sent 4 K'NEX Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 Series 4 figures as a giveaway gift to me in November of 2018. Only one of them replied, which stated if they already gave them away after they reviewed all of them, sadly.
• I was even tried to get one of those by asking it to one of the YouTubers who have 4 extra figures of those (shown clearly in one of the videos above),  but he just simply replied me with a 💓 on my YouTube comment about it on that video. Oh, come on man! This is NOT just as an appreciation, but rather requesting it as a free giveaway to me! S***

Well, there you have it for why I still COULDN'T get that particular figure that I wanted from a while ago. There's also 2 more of those, but it's unknown if I'll eventually get those missing figures too or not. As what I clearly stated in my particular Instagram post about that particular figure that I still missed until today (shown above), only the time will tell... Again, it's unknown if I'll eventually get those or not, I have no idea about them at all... You know what? Because of this, fine! I'm gonna get anything directly from China for now on, as long I'm not gonna pick some sets that are NOT make any sense at all! I know if those figures or sets that are being on sale only based on main Plants vs. Zombies series, but whatever... That's how I supposed to collect them by the way, all the way from my very early days thanks to those Plants vs. Zombies KFC toys that I wanted the most in 2013, until I got even more of those figures that I have in my collection through nearly 7 years after that particular year, preferably from late of 2017 onwards that I did.

I think that's it for this post of yet another "I'm sorry, our Plants vs. Zombies lovers" thread. I don't think if I will make yet another post of this again, it's because I'm entirely sick for seeing those figures that I STILL missed until today, unless I already forgot them already as of nowadays though... And once again, only the time will tell, whether I can get those figures that I always needed or not, so who knows. Anyway, that's it for the RANT for this, and hopefully you can pay the attention about this post.

Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville for MOBILE DEVICES?! but...📱

This time, I will tell you about something random about me with Plants vs. Zombies stuffs, but not from any of my assets anyway... Even though I don't have any console or at least powerful gaming PC/laptop to play any Plants vs. Zombies shooter games (Garden Warfare, Garden Warfare 2, and Battle for Neighborville), but I came across something about one of them that was being ported into mobile devices. Not those two Garden Warfare series, but Battle for Neighborville. Yes, I do watch any of those gameplay videos of this particular Plants vs. Zombies shooter game on YouTube by various gamers out there (IULITM, ZERO X FUSIONZ, Redhead Gaming, Twothless, ZackScottGames, etc.), although I don't seem to watch them quite often, unlike Garden Warfare series, which I always them for almost everyday. Until at someday, I found a wild video that wasn't a gameplay of it, but rather something that leads to the link that contained the aforementioned Plants vs. Zombies shooter game that was being ported wildly into mobile devices, instead of the ones that they officially released already on few ports like Xbox One/Series X, PS4/PS5 (I think), PC, or Nintendo Switch (as of this month). So, here are my short stories about me encountered it, right away.

1. When I discovered the site of it...📱

Right after I opened the link that leads to it, I was surprised about the site itself. It was sort of legit website, although the English grammar on it was a little dodgy. The site that contained them also boasted bunch of features that claimed if it also run as good as those official ports of the aforementioned Plants vs. Zombies shooter game itself (Xbox One/Series X, PS4/PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch [as of this month]). There were no words that I could say to it, until I downloaded the app file (.apk) to it into my phone... Until the thing that caused me didn't bother to continue playing it straight from the beginning.

2. When I downloaded the app itself...📱

The size of the app itself is approximately about 126 MB. Although it took few minutes to download it, it did download it just well, yet it also showed the Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville logo on it too. Again, everything about it was fine during the installation of it to my phone, but again... Something that caused me didn't bother to continue playing it straight from the beginning.

3. When I tried to play it... I said that, because...📱

Okay, here's the main point about why I said so in this section... While I tried to play it, it did open the app just fine, showing the 2019 copyright of the game itself. Then, in the loading screen, it showed up some Weeds attacking some basic zombies (instead of others like an AI Kernel Corn attacking an AI Foot Soldier 1v1, or even a throwback from main Plants vs. Zombies games being interpreted into this game). Obviously there's the "Tap to start" instead of "Press the button" command on that loading screen, because this is the wild mobile phone port version of this particular Plants vs. Zombies shooter game. Until... Bah! I had to do some complicated human verification process thing in order to play it by doing 2 objectives that obviously wouldn't work in my country anyway. So, here are 2 objectives that the app said in order to play it:

1. Downloading a Lords Mobile game, then I had to open it for least 30 seconds. It was kind of passable, but I just simply didn't bother to do it.
2. Now, here is my most impossible objective that I had to do, which was some sort of tinkering with Coin Master by doing sending some weird SMS into random foreign phone numbers that I couldn't recognize them at all. WHICH of course, it wouldn't send ANY of them due to it obviously wouldn't work for ANY phone numbers outside my country... What a waste of my phone's quota! F***

So, there you have it about why I obviously didn't play the mobile device port of Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. Due to those two objectives of verification thing that looks and sounds way too complicated, that's a big reason about why. Imagine if the verification itself wasn't too complicated like that, I would be easier to play it right off the bat... Which means, I simply keep watching any of those gameplay videos about those Plants vs. Zombies shooter games on YouTube instead, including Garden Warfare series too...

Oh, this also reminds me to those good old days where there were lot of fake Plants vs. Zombies 2 apps being listed on Google Play. It was occurred back in somewhere in very late of 2013 until 2014. Although most of them had different guts in each of the fake apps there, such as typical objectives that were actually some sort of malware (for instance, suddenly installed a wild SystemUI), or even a poor man's original Plants vs. Zombies game, from what I discovered them back in those days with my bad Android devices that I used to have... Anyway, that's it for what I can say about this wild port about one of those Plants vs. Zombies shooter games that I couldn't even get it to play at all due to those two freaking complicated verification things there, and thanks for reading this post.

Electric fans in abandoned places (part 5)

And yet again, another batch of yet another YouTube videos of electric fans (mainly ceiling fans) in abandoned places, taken by several urban exploration YouTubers... On this part here, there's something different of what videos of electric fans in abandoned places that I listed in here, which most of the videos that I listed here also involve the demolition of the place itself that has any of the fans on it (of course which means being destroyed during the demolition), instead of normal urban exploration videos by those urban exploration YouTubers like usual... Without further ado with them, let's take look at yet even more of YouTube videos of electric fans (mainly ceiling fans) in abandoned places.

Started off by this big abandoned house here. There's a ceiling fan with 4-arm light-kit that has one it's own light-kit's shades got missing, shown at 2:16.

Now, here's the one that I'm talking about on this part of electric fans in abandoned house, which isn't taken by any urban explorers. This is the example video about the demolition of this old abandoned house that they did more than a decade ago. On this video here, there was this white ceiling fan that got taken down with a sledgehammer by one of these guys on this video, then he threw it off to the window.

Then, in this abandoned party mansion here, just a typical modern ceiling fan with schoolhouse light-kit, shown around at 1:52 (Unfortunately there's no better look at that one, but whatever), followed by three remote ceiling fans with palm leaf blades on each of them above the moldy pool, shown around at 11:48.


Then, in this abandoned farmhouse here, there's the polished brass ceiling fan with 4-arm adjustable spotlight-kit shown around at 3:36. It's only the fan that is installed in this house, by the way.

Then, in this really vandalized abandoned party house here, there are two ceiling fans in there. One of them is installed above the kitchen of this house, which is severely destroyed (shown at 4:28), and the other one is installed in the basement's bar of this house (unfortunately, there's no close-up at that one though).

Another video that was taken by that Australian guy who smashes a lot of things with his golf clubs...

"Fancy fan has been destroyed..."-smashthings1

Anyway, it is shown at 0:21 for a very brief look of it, yet he also featured it clearly on this video's thumbnail.

Then, in this abandoned time capsule home here, there's the hugger ceiling fan with droopy blades, shown at 2:21, followed by the stand fan that is located in one of the bedrooms of this house (shown clearly on this video's thumbnail).


Now, this is the most bizarre one... This abandoned time capsule mansion contains many ceiling fans inside. Few of them are installed in the mansion part of this house, and the rest of them are installed in the other part of this building, which is the time capsule house itself. Through 4 different Canadian urban explorer YouTubers that they explored in this place (although they didn't realize if there are bunch of ceiling fans in there [except for few of them that they discovered indirectly on camera]), here are traits for those ceiling fans in there:

a. Mansion

• 3 of them are installed in the front area of the mansion itself, being 2 of them are installed on the sloped ceiling... The one that isn't installed on the sloped ceiling yet it is different than the others has it's own light kit on it, yet the condition of it is fine, unlike the other 2 fans which are rusty.
• One of them is installed on one of the porches of the mansion itself, yet it obviously has droopy blades. Unfortunately though, none of the explorers take a close look of it though.
• Another ceiling fan that is installed in one of the bedrooms of the mansion itself, caught by one of the explorers. It has droopy blades too, by the way.

b. Time capsule house

• 2 of them are installed in the living room-kitchen combo. The one that is installed above the kitchen has droopy blades. Although there's the ceiling fan that IS installed above the living room, only one of the explorers caught it indirectly.
• 2 of the bedrooms has ceiling fans in each of the bedrooms. One of them is a 30" ceiling fan that is installed in the bedroom that has that desktop computer, and the other one is a hugger ceiling fan with light kit that is installed in another bedroom that contains those old laptops. None of them did take a close look at each of the fans though, although you can see them in most of the parts on some of these videos here briefly.

Then, in this abandoned house that was being demolished, there was this ceiling fan that they destroyed using a baseball bat. 😢🏏

"Oh, the fancy ceiling fan... Just have show on the shot because neither the video gets way more views, just that... ONE shot for the fan..."-smashthings1

Shown at 0:25, and also...

"Oh what is that is the VINTAGE FAN? Oh wow!"-smashthings1

Shown at 1:25. But of course he smashed it on his smashing video of it. There's also a ceiling exhaust fan that he showed it at 5:42.


Then, in this abandoned trailer park here, there are bunch of 42" hugger ceiling fans in most parts of this trailer park. There's also a brown spinner ceiling fan in one of them, which is located in one of the parts that also has 2 of those 42" hugger ceiling fans installed in one large room.


Then, in this abandoned ranch style mansion here, there are bunch of ceiling fans in there. Shown briefly at 7:54, 9:32 (right behind him), 11:27 (white hugger ceiling fan with 4 adjustable spotlight-kit), and the one that is featured on this video's thumbnail. There's also another one of those, but unfortunately, he didn't take a brief look at that one.


Then, in this abandoned retro country home here, there are few ceiling fans installed inside. Shown at 0:18 and 1:52 (antique brass fan with schoolhouse light-kit), 2:44 (42" antique brass fan with 3-arm light kit), and 11:33 (the "Blenderfan"). There's also a 32"-ish white spinner ceiling fan that is installed right above the stairway at 6:30, but unfortunately, they didn't even take a close look at it.


Then, in this abandoned dealer's house that is moldy due to there's the indoor pool inside that was explored by 3 different Canadian urban explorer YouTubers here, there 4 ceiling fans in there.  One of them is installed in the living room (polished brass with 4-arm light kit), another one is installed in some sort of master bedroom (polished brass with 3-arm light kit, yet with cane blades), and the other two are installed in each of the smaller bedrooms themselves (white 42" fans), but only one of them that is visible for a brief look for it in one of these exploration videos (I think).




Lastly, this video was taken by one of those small American fan collector YouTubers. He explored into this old house that has bunch of old ceiling fans inside. Shown at 0:05 (polished brass fan with 3-arm light kit, yet it's own blades are droopy), 0:20 (laying on the floor), 0:22 (same fan as the first one, but different model and finish), 0:33 (42" hugger, but hard to look),  1:04, and 2:59 (30" painted hugger in pink, blue, and yellow colors, yet also featured clearly on this video's thumbnail).



If you know about the brand of each of the electric fans (mainly ceiling fans) in each of these videos there, please let me know about them in the comments section below here... Also, I will make a part 6 of (yet again) even more of the electric fans in abandoned places by various urban explorers (and some other guys like those demolition guys), so stay tuned for that. Enjoy

Experience with my new Lenovo laptop...

Inspired by my previous post of that old 13,3" Dell Latitude E4310 that I got from online shop that I paid for roughly 200 bucks for it, then after 3 months later, it's own LCD screen's backlight just DIED!!! Then, I switched back to my old cheap Samsung laptop from 2013 for a while until it's own LCD screen also got it's own problem as well, but different way...  For now,  I already switched from those two of my broken laptops into my current one, and the brand of this laptop that I'm using right now is the Lenovo. Without any further ado with it, let's take a look at my experience of me with it.

1. General_💻

In case you've wondering about the brand and the model of the particular laptop that I simply got it from a local laptop store in my hometown, it's the Lenovo V14-ADA, and I paid for roughly 630 bucks for it... Because it's so expensive yet I'm totally broke due to I broke those two of my previous laptops before during usage, so I have to pay it with some sort of money installment system for it for several months, until I reached amount of price of it later on.  It also has 8 GB of RAM, much like my old Dell (except they are pair of DDR4s instead of DDR3s), it has Windows 10 20H2 Home SL installed on it (originally it had 2004 version), it has AMD Athlon 3020e processor, yet with Radeon Graphics, and it has 256 GB of SSD, instead of HDD... FYI, I originally wanted the cheaper alternative to it that has AMD A4 (which is the IdeaPad 130, I think), but none of the computer or laptop stores sell any of those due to those laptops were sold out already, so I decided to buy the V14-ADA with AMD Athlon 3020e instead, which is slightly better option than that.

2. Results_💻

There are bunch of major difference between this and 3 of my old laptops in terms of opening certain programs. However, there are few of minor flaws that this laptop has, although I can troubleshoot it by simply doing so without any problem... Well, here are the examples of my results of me using it after a month later, as of today:

• Web browsing on it is more comfortable on it, by opening the Google Chrome or newer Microsoft Edge. Which means, I can open it a lot more quicker than my Acer, Samsung, or even my old Dell laptop.
• File exploring on it is also just fine, not much I can say about it apart from it only has 256 GB of SSD... Unless I have to put HDD or another SSD on it, since according to somebody else who knows this laptop (including my electric fan fellow lovers), it also has an empty slot for HDD or SSD (or even SSHD), if I'm not mistaken.
• Adobe Photoshop (latest version) does work reasonably excellent.
• Playing games (even though I didn't install any games on it yet) will work just flawlessly, especially for 2D games... However, I have no idea for heavy 3D games though. Just remember, there are ton of old games that wouldn't work for Windows 7 or newer anyway, they just simply crash if you tried to open them.
• Google Earth on it does work just decently. Not too good, but it does it's job just okay.
• CorelDRAW (latest version) does work just okay... There are some lag on it by the way, but still passable.
• Playing videos with 720p or higher will work just fine, unlike both of my Acer and Samsung laptops.
• Editing videos with certain simple video editors do work just fine. There's also a stock video editor that comes with the Windows 10 too, and it does work just okay... Unless the Adobe Premiere is already installed on this laptop, which isn't good for this particular AMD processor that it has IMO.
• I also installed the BlueStacks on it, then I play Plants vs. Zombies 2 in there too. It does crash the game for few times like my bad Android devices that I used to have, but overall, it does open the aforementioned program just fine after I tweaked it's own settings.
• Many of the other programs that I can't tell about how well they run this laptop since I never open nor run them quite often, especially for those programs that comes with the Windows 10 themselves.

3. This vs. Dell E4310's flaws_💻

Exclusive to this one, which is comparing this to my old Dell Latitude E4310 that had it's own ashamed major flaws. Here are list of comparison between this and the flaws of that laptop, right away:

• While the Dell had an utterly crap battery life (more so than both of my Acer and Samsung, I guess), this doesn't... Which is a good sign for such a new laptop anyway, and it last for about almost 4 hours without any standby (well, depends of my usage with it then).
• Annoying "date and time resetting" isn't present in this laptop, due to it has it's own battery isn't removable, which is a huge difference between this and that Dell... That also applied with my Acer and Samsung laptops too, even though they did have their own removable batteries.
• It doesn't crash it's own display graphics driver while I turn it on from hibernate or sleep, unlike that Dell, which occurred most of the time.
• It doesn't have any static electricity around it too, unless I plug it to the power outlet all the time using it's own adapter... Unlike the Dell which had some of them on one side, especially during I plugged it into the power outlet all the time.
• Unlike my previous laptops (especially for that Dell), it doesn't seem to overheat that much, depends on my usage of it.
• It has 3 USB ports just like two of my laptops that I had earlier, unlike the Dell which only had one. The only difference between this and those two aforementioned laptops, which is 2 of it's own ports are USB 3.1 ports, and the other one is USB 2.0 port.
• Unlike my old Dell which only equipped with standard HD Audio driver that came from Windows themselves (which was bad anyway), this one has Realtek Audio driver on it, which is nice, yet being supported with the Dolby Audio, which is even nicer. My old Acer and Samsung laptops also did have their own Realtek Audio drivers on both of them too, by the way.

4. Flaws_💻

Only one major flaw that this laptop has, which is connecting it into my Wi-Fi network is kind of tactical.  Every time right after I boot it up, sometimes it won't detect my internet access, and it simply says "No internet, secured" on it... Until I unplug the router for at least 10 seconds, then I plug it back in, then it does work properly.  I have no idea why this problem occurs sometimes, because last time I connected my Dell to my own Wi-Fi network had no problems at all (if I'm not mistaken, and that also applied to my Acer and Samsung laptops too), unless it detected as an unidentified network... I contacted it to one of my fellow electric fan lovers through a chat who also have exact same problem on his newer laptop with Windows 10 like I am, and he has the same intermittent problem on his laptop too... There's also another flaw that this laptop has, which is the brightness on this laptop doesn't work sometimes (probably due to it's being controlled by the AMD Radeon Software settings itself to look like it has fixed brightness, I guess).

5. Conclusion_💻

Being my first laptop that has a newer AMD processor instead of usual Intel ones like last 3 laptops that I used to have, this is probably the best one that I ever picked so far. I know if my previous laptops had really poor performance, especially during I opened some heavy programs, for instance, the Google Chrome. While 2 of my old laptops that only had 2 GB of RAM didn't perform well due to sometimes they just simply wouldn't respond or just crashed that made me want to smash them both with my hands or tools, this laptop does it's job just well, even with newer AMD Athlon processor that this laptop has. Even though it only has 256 GB of SSD, it doesn't matter too, unless I already done something heavy (such as editing a video that has 30 minutes of video length). The only thing that bothers me is the problem when I connect it into my Wi-Fi network. Although this problem exists sometimes, I can do fix it by simply follow the steps about why this intermittent problem occurs... Overall, this laptop is relatively great for it's look, it's price, and it's own specifications. It's also a great replacement from my previous laptops that I previously own for daily drivers, because again, they were so slow to do any multitasking anyway (except for Dell, which kind of decent until it's own LCD screen's backlight died). Obviously I'll hope this laptop will last WAY longer than my old ones, yet I also hope there's no more for typical errors that occurred on my previous laptops that I used to have, even though I always use it for daily drivers as of nowadays... Anyway, that's it for what I can say of my experience with my brand new Lenovo laptop for at least a month as of today, and as always, thanks for reading this post.

Wild Plants vs. Zombies stuffs in your hometown...

Random Plants vs. Zombies toys that I found in a local supermarket nearest from my dad's main workplace... Also, my Instagram watermark tho...😁

Well, yet another fun with my Plants vs. Zombies stuffs... But this time, I will tell you about my story about wild Plants vs. Zombies stuffs in my hometown. I know if my hometown doesn't have a lot of Plants vs. Zombies fans like I do, but I did encounter few wild stuffs about them. For example, another fan like I am but completely different ages between me and themselves, wild stickers that sticks on a vehicle, cheap stuffs, or even some toys of them being on sale locally. Without further ado with them, here are my list about wild Plants vs. Zombies stuffs in my hometown.

Before that, I'm not gonna tell you again about those KFC Plants vs. Zombies toys in one of my old friend's house that I featured many times before, so I'll skip that because those toys already got their bad fate after I borrowed one of them for fun in 2014... Anyway, here are my list about aforementioned Plants vs. Zombies stuffs in my hometown, right away:

• Back in primary school, I borrowed one of those cheap NOAC (NES on-a-chip) handheld consoles that had homebrew NES bootleg Plants vs. Zombies on it from one of my old friends.
• One of my family's relative told me if she saw a random student from a school nearest from my old house with a picture of a Cabbage-pult stuck on his or her bags. Couldn't tell who it was yet which Plants vs. Zombies game that featured it, because she just simply told him or her to me indirectly, and that's literally it.
• A sticker of regular Pirate Zombie stuck on someone's car.
• Somebody who visited my hometown captured his cheap PVC Conehead Zombie figure in one of the beaches of my hometown, posted it on his Instagram account.
• During I was out with my dad to buy some breakfast meals, I met a children who also a big fan of Plants vs. Zombies like I do, but different way to express them, thanks to my helmet with my Plants vs. Zombies Peashooter stickers on it that he discovered if I also a big fan of the Plants vs. Zombies franchise. While I express it by collecting toys and figures, meanwhile for him... He expresses it by drawing certain Plants vs. Zombies characters.
• Recently, I encountered few of cheap PVC Plants vs. Zombies figures that was being on a sale at a local supermarket, nearest from my dad's main workplace. Those figures are Sap-fling, Lily Pad, and some random zombies from Sky City, a world in Chinese version of Plants vs Zombies 2. They costed around IDR 17.500, based from the price tag stuck on one of the figures... Unfortunately though, after I saw those last time then I visited that place again, those figures were sold, yet the supermarket has changed their layout of the display shelves, especially for the section where those Plants vs. Zombies figures used to be.

As of those PVZ Plants vs. Zombies figures that was being on sale at aforementioned supermarket itself, here are more of my pictures to themselves, including the first one that I featured above earlier:

So there you have it for all of the wild Plants vs. Zombies stuffs that I encountered them in my own hometown. Hope you can enjoy this short story-based post that I made to the aforementioned stuffs themselves... Anyway, that's it for what I can say to this post, and as always, thanks for reading.
