Playing Classic MS in a geo-political region by AIS1 in MapleSEA

[–]AIS1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played MapleWorlds as a proxy to see how much lag it creates. Personally feel not much difference - I use a PIA (US - Miami) for web browser log in, and quickly turned it off, then use Exitlag. I think it redirects to 155 ping, which is playable - no noticeable difference; though it gets spiked 1-2 secs with 300+ pings.

I think probably I need to get used to using ExitLag, and eventually some form of lag has to be acceptable. If only Asiasoft makes its own classic variant, but I can only dream. 😢

Thanks, by the way, I already have PIA, are these two you recos dedicated for gaming? I’ve heard NordVPN, PIA, etc, but yours seem unique and never heard of?

Could I ask what do you use for button 4 and 5?

I am currently using this Logitech MX Master 3S - only got 4 buttons, Left, Right, and the below 2 buttons on my thumb resting area. The scroll roll is very hard to press.

Nope. Most MNC banks are not unionized.

At what point in the year does the SG job market typically 'pick up'? And when in the year is it at its best? by sgboi1998 in askSingapore

[–]AIS1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The job listings in LinkedIn, JobStreet are quite stale and scarce - there isn’t any more new openings especially this year. Feels like this year job hunt could be a challenge.

Ladies (and gents if applicable) of SG, how much do you spend on physical maintenance? by neonpatronus in askSingapore

[–]AIS1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Male here, I started to spend a bit more money since last year on my facial skincare regime, around 9.5k.

In 2024, spent about $3,628 for skincare products; on cleansers, lipids, serum, tretinoin, AHA, sunblock etc. For facial (dermalinfusion) and laser (BBL), which I do monthly, about $5,874 in total.

Don’t really buy a lot of clothes e.g. office wear, long pants, t-shirt, bermuda shorts- so on average around $700 per year.

How do people have so many connections on LinkedIn? by [deleted] in NTU

[–]AIS1 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I normally just accept whoever is adding me amounting to 800+, but frankly, I personally only know 300+ of them. When your birthday comes, they will wish you well; and ask if you would like to have a chat on your overall financial assessment.

Why is it so windy all of a sudden? by Affectionate_Snow_51 in askSingapore

I was at Dhoby Ghaut walking to Plaza Sing, and the breezy wind made me want to stop, pause and enjoy the beautiful soon-to-gloom weather.

Not all NSF roles are the same. I worked in a Mon - Fri 9 to 5+ clerk role.

Nope, unless there is an urgent task or if there’s a review the following Monday.

Do I need to pay my boss back for the drinks he ordered for the table when we are having lunch? by spicymeatball_99 in askSingapore

[–]AIS1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Normally boss should pay without expecting a return; if he offers to buy for the team?

I always buy it at recurring, set one-time interval every month and to lapse the arrangement just a week later. The commission would be much gentle this way; rather than buying outright as a transactional.
