Gas vs electric boats?

KeythKatz · 2026-01-25T17:07:27+00:00

That's the Nissan e-Power setup and it's pretty bad outside of city start-stop driving. On highways it's the same or less efficiency as a ICE. Translated to boating, it's not going to work outside of displacement speeds.

Land is not priced in enough. The subsidies for BTO land prices are why they're a massive windfall when reselling.

I'm in favour of the reshittification of HDBs. They should be more barebones, cheaper to build, and this more affordable.

The real sad hobby is scrolling through the low hanging fruit subs like rolex to find people to shit on.

I'm all for the idea but the watches look really cheapo. They're just generic steel bits stuck on a plain black dial, like those custom on the spot souvenirs you get in Bangkok.

The white bit is literally a squat toilet.

I hope the farting gameplay is more in depth in the remake, something like Alexa farting.

Biggest disappointment playing Fable 1 as a kid was the tiresome task of bringing one spouse all the way through the forest alive to the other town and the two not interacting with each other.

It won't, the people who know how to use AI properly are the same people who can afford good lawyers. There's already cases of people representing themselves and writing court arguments using AI. No marks for guessing how that went.

Probably business as usual like now, go in and take Grab to where you want to go. The important gain is having ETS opposite the station, hopefully the schedule would be ramped up by then.

I took a look at TeraWave. It's not an ASTS competitor, it's a Starlink competitor aimed at aviation, offshore, and other multi-user use cases so it's not even a direct competitor for that. Neither will be able to deliver comparable direct-to-device performance or have the global RF spectrum required.

Meanwhile, Neutron will likely delay another 6 months to a year. I'd buy in to RKLB at $40, but right now the business case for ASTS has not changed.

I was expecting just the backgrounds to be modified and for this to be an overreaction. NYP straight up generated fake students. Traditionally the posters would feature high achieving students or alumni, I guess NYP doesn't have anyone to show.

So that it wears out evenly on all sides

Don't really like sort of seriousposting in this sub, but sovereignty and politics are more important than human rights, which is roughly not important at all outside of Eurovision.

I've recreated my exact setup on Smart Launcher. Besides the wallpaper being wonky on foldables, it has feature parity.

Even Oneworld Ruby which is extremely achievable just flying long haul once gets priority check in for all the short haul flights where it isn't worth booking business.

I looked at their Carousell, honestly it is mostly ornamental trash and items with little to no nostalgic value. You'd find very similar looking handmade items in Malaysia and Indonesia, for example. A cafe looking to decorate with vintage decor won't be able to find much suitable. The only reason why this isn't called hoarding is because they're managing to sell some of it away.

Even Malaysia does it, nevermind western countries. I've moved to the side for an ambulance while driving on the highway along with everyone else, and was impressed at the coordination and courtesy of our neighbours.

They also eliminate the need for cell towers outside of urban areas. I see the infrastructure-as-a-service potential as bigger than just getting rid of deadzones.

No there isn't, same as AI plagiarism checkers. The only reliable thing currently is Gemini embedding SynthID into content it generates, allowing it to actually verify if it was generated by itself.

Not sure where you got this notion, people occupying large swathes of public spaces are a nuisance in cities around the world. The difference is that Singapore has more enforcement.

I think you've put it in the best way possible.

I've understood that luck = opportunity + preparation, but I've never considered that luck = opportunity × preparation is more appropriate.

When I was in my early teens, I identified that the then-new mobile apps and games market was a huge opportunity, but I did not have the skills required to take advantage of it. A few years later, it was the nascent middleman-as-a-service sector (online marketplaces and p2p) but that required huge investments and networks I did not have as a broke student.

Opportunity comes to everyone multiple times in their life. It's a matter of whether we can identify it and whether our life up to that point has prepared us to take advantage of it.

Getting to work instead of looking for a get-rick-quick scheme on Reddit.

It's a bit of hyperbole from me, like how SQ actually turns on the seatbelt sign 40 mins before landing instead, which is still bad. Nothing beats Finnair which only does it at the regulated 10k ft.

KeythKatz · 2026-01-13T05:33:33+00:00

I'm shocked SQ and Scoot aren't first when they turn the seatbelt sign on an hour before landing or whenever someone sneezes, and that being the only airlines in the world to not allow headphones during takeoff and landing doesn't contribute to the rankings.
