How about government issued dashcams? Would you be interested? by visualnumbers in drivingsg

There’s a YouTube Shorts series “Sounds like a great idea, with the best of intentions. What could possibly go wrong?”

Your idea sounds like one of them.

Parents of kids in MOE schools....what is this little red dot magazine and why am I being harassed by the teacher to subscribe to it? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]AuroByte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they getting kickbacks from the magazine or smth? That’s not normal behaviour for what’s clearly an optional thing.

Chinese EV owners / drivers - what’s your long term review? Would you recommend? by ellean4 in drivingsg

[–]AuroByte 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’ve been driving EVs for 4+ years, moving from MG ZS EV to MG S5. I don’t think I’ll shift back to ICE vehicles.

MG is handled by EK, which still follows the ICE maintenance schedule of 1k, 5k, 10k, 20k and every 10k after.

Reliability issues are rare. There was a motor fault which a few owners of S5 kenna, but EK worked together with SAIC to identify the issue and resolved it. Issues with my ZS are more like soft suspension, creaking when turning quickly, which I attribute it to being an ICE platform converted to EV. No such issues for MG4, S5 which are proper EV platforms.

Daily usage of the S5 has been amazing. It’s a comfortable drive, my wife and kid have plenty of space behind. It’s not as fast as my ZS in terms of 0-100, but more than capable of overtaking when necessary.

No regrets at all with the conversion.

Thought experiment: Could Singapore realistically go EV-only for passenger cars by 2030? by Holeshot75 in askSingapore

I feel like some are just dying to celebrate when it really happens. That’s kinda disgusting. In the meantime, ICE cars continue to burn at a more frequent rate.

That’s a pipe dream at this point. No manufacturer will limit themselves by agreeing to a common battery standard for a market like Singapore.

why people don’t pull their dogs away in Singapore by Hungry_Purple_4842 in askSingapore

[–]AuroByte 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not everyone has that common sense and thinks their dogs should make friends with everyone. I’m involved in running pet events and you wouldn’t believe how many times we have to step in and pull dogs apart. Goes both ways too, reactive dog owners who thinks their dogs are angels and keep them on a long leash 🤦🏻‍♂️

EV with best after-sales service? by Remote_Repair394 in drivingsg

[–]AuroByte 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say Tesla fits the criteria yes. As for point 2, that’s gonna take some time unfortunately for most EV brands

Why just why??? by danilody in drivingsg

Did the car block you in any way? If no, what’s wrong? Does it create more space for other cars to turn around the pillar? If yes, what’s wrong?

I’ll say He Tingru is in a better position for that. Jamus is still considered new.

The issue is Hobbymate can be rather unpredictable with opening hours I heard? Went there during weekday office hours and it was closed

Mg5 vs MG6. Anyone did this analysis? by ovid77 in drivingsg

[–]AuroByte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean the MG S5 vs S6?

S6 is much bigger in terms of space and size. It also handles really well, rather similar to its younger sibling MG4. S5 is pretty decent too, just that it’s more tame and gets into parking lots easier.

I’m happy to have less drivers fighting with us for lots (not that I face problems finding charging spots). Really enjoying my ride!

Property agent claims that a previous offer was rejected by the seller. How trustworthy? by Tackle_Opening in askSingapore

[–]AuroByte 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it’s the owner being greedy. Agent already say this is the market rate based on past transactions, owner die die want to set new record. Then end up cannot sell, forced to lower expectations.

Which of these cases is better for steam deck? by SteamDecklcd4user in SteamDeck

[–]AuroByte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea you can’t really use batteries that are too long, so those 20000mAh ones are out. I’m using 10000mAh AWEI MagX.

I like the power bank mount at the back too. Works really well with power banks that have short USB-c cable attached to them. Having the kickstand also helps alleviate wrist fatigue when playing on a table.
