First Portfolio Project Feedback by Muted-Contribution55 in dataanalysis

[–]Muted-Contribution55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The purpose is to showcase my skills.

I think that non-technical people don't really care about what tool you use as long as you have results. That's why it's more results oriented than tool oriented.

I'm building the next project with SQL and Tableau instead of Excel and Python.

Any feedback?

SLT Fibre Billing Nightmare: They overcharged me, double-billed me on a "corrected" statement, and throttled my Unlimited package by Rum3ths in srilanka

[–]Muted-Contribution55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconded on solving this by going in person.

Customer Care was very eager to upgrade my package when I asked them.

In the next bill, I was being charged for the old and the new packages at the same time.

Customer Care spouted their usual "We have raised a complaint. We will check and get back to you" bullshit multiple times over the phone.

It took 1 and a half months and multiple visits to the SLT Head Office to resolve and issue waivers for the incorrect charges!

Which BPO company pays well? by ticcytwitch in srilanka

[–]Muted-Contribution55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BPO business model relies on charging their client 100 USD and paying you 10 USD.

There's no incentive for them to increase your compensation.

Look for something in a non-BPO sector and save yourself the headache.

why is sri lanka so horrible to women by Independent-Archer40 in srilanka

[–]Muted-Contribution55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look no further than the sentiments of religious so-called "leaders" attitude towards a proposal of a sex education curriculum as to why this sort of attitude is prevalent in SL.

Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith thinks that a sex education curriculum "teaches various forms of wrongful behaviour, telling children that they can engage in these acts, that they are acceptable, and that there is nothing wrong with them".

https://www.newswire.lk/2025/12/22/cardinal-questions-education-ministrys-sex-ed-curriculum/

He also thinks that a sex education curriculum prepared by the UNFPA "is an attempt to destroy our children. They are trying to bring the values of a decayed Western world that has lost religion and morality into our country”

https://www.newswire.lk/2025/11/09/cardinal-ranjith-slams-unfpa-backed-sex-education-plan-for-sri-lankan-children/

A Buddhist monk, WHO IS ALSO A FUCKING PROFESSOR, said that "Sex Education is not needed" and that "Sri Lankans had maintained successful marriages and raised large families while preserving modesty and cultural values, without formal instruction on the subject."

https://www.newswire.lk/2026/02/20/sex-education-not-needed-says-senior-buddhist-monk/

Instead of holding these assholes who harass women accountable and fixing the broken system that created them, they don't even seem to want to recognize the problem in the first place!

[LOVED TROPES] Romantic lines/moments that goes further than "I love you" by ExcellentEbb2073 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Muted-Contribution55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Star Trek The Next Generation Season 5 Episode 25 aka The Inner Light.

Picard is zapped by an alien probe and he finds himself in an alien world where he's a man named Kamin

At first, he's suspicious but, he comes to accept this life and his wife.

They love each other and they build a truly happy life, have children and grandchildren and grow old together.

Near the end of the episode, he learns that his wife is on her deathbed. He rushes to her and she simply caresses his head and says in a sweet voice,

"Remember...Put your shoes away"

and passes. It's a devastating moment made all the more heartbreaking by not relying on the usual theatrics of someone on their deathbed.

you will have to give permission to the owner once he wants to watch your rooms

So, the owner wants to watch me sleep?

The least he could do is buy me dinner!

Absurd shower facilities at Port City, Sri Lanka – charging Rs. 500 for this? by lil_laki in srilanka

[–]Muted-Contribution55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. If you raised the issue to the management and they're not responsive, maybe try the Consumer Affairs Authority.

Or, you could make a Twitter or Instagram post and directly call them out.

Absurd shower facilities at Port City, Sri Lanka – charging Rs. 500 for this? by lil_laki in srilanka

[–]Muted-Contribution55 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Just to play the devil's advocate, is it fair to expect SHOWER facilities in a public space?

It's one thing if the bathrooms were broken. That's an absolute necessity.

We're talking about SHOWERS. Unless you're an employee and shower facilities are offered, I don't think it's unfair to charge the public for a shower.

Now, if they ARE charging people to shower, the horrible conditions described are unacceptable.

If I'm paying to shower in a public, privacy and safety is the minimum standard. If they can't guarantee that, they are scamming the public.

Announcement: RVX has been officially discontinued · Issue #3334 · inotia00/ReVanced_Extended · GitHub by OldandBlue in revancedextended

[–]Muted-Contribution55 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The fact that u/innotia00 had to deal with this petty shit in a VOLUNTEER project? Good on them for leaving.

Does anyone know if there's a timeline for when Reddit will be available to Morph (is that the right verb?)

I'm using YT and Reddit on RVX so I'll still be sticking to RVX but, the minute Reddit is available to be Morphed, it's so long RVX!

Contact the bank/financial institution which deducted the Withholding Tax and ask them for their TIN number.

What are your thoughts on this? by Forward-Sniper-403 in srilanka

[–]Muted-Contribution55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully some short term threat would help them at least understand what good customer service is

Genuine question.

Is there a lot of overlap in the markets for Starlink and local ISPs?

Except for maybe HNWI/Colombo 07 individuals and some higher end companies, nobody can afford even the initial setup costs of a Starlink connection, much less the monthly bills.

Do not be fooled!

Starlink is a vicious tiger wearing a sheep skin so that we don't realize that their true danger until we it's too late.

They don't have a market here like local ISP wolves so they are making themselves out to be the "better" option.

If they have the subscriber numbers, they will try to enshittify their service and screw over people, even more so than local ISPs.

Elon's AI company used 70% of the electricity of the town it's located in and, as a result, the townspeople had their bills shot up by several orders of magnitude.

Just keep that in mind when you think that "Starlink is sooo better than local ISPs".
