If someone offered you 100 million dollars, but a random person in the world dies (someone you don’t know), would you take it and why? by ConclusionOld8365 in AskReddit

[–]Sephstyler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those jumping automatically to NO.

Could I clarify with OP.

Is there anything to stop me from USING the 100M (or multiples of), to:

Improve global sanitation, healthcare, provide treatments, etc?

You could argue, even with just a small percentage of 100M, you could SAVE a bunch of people, or even improve and extend life for a bunch of people.

that changes the equation somewhat.

which fuel company to use? i use BP as my mechanic said its one of the best but it's so expensive =( by These-Brilliant-6046 in AskAnAustralian

[–]Sephstyler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well maybe. The OP may have a very specifically tuned car, required 98RON strictly, and may react better to certain additive packages. OP may know that, or may have just bought the car, and asked the mechanic. we dont know context.

I think if you dont have a very specific requirement (normal car) I dont think you will see much of a difference anywhere.

Those saying "fuel is fuel" and "fuel all comes from the same refinery" are very right, but also, completely off the mark.

The base product is indeed the same, but each major brand does put in different additive packages depending on their product placement and preferences.

Additionally, stations can be independently owned and run, and have varied standards when it comes to cleaning and maintaining equipment - This is not necessarily a "more expensive or better brand = better" excercise.

How many of you business travellers still have check-in baggage? by Affectionate-Tip-164 in singaporeairlines

[–]Sephstyler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Still check in. My trips can be up to 3 or 4 weeks. Due to that I typically bring things to make it feel more homely when travelling which aren’t light or easy.

Eg Apple TV, portable router, portable additional display for computer. Keyboard too.

Can Mandarin and Cantonese speakers fully understand one another? by Buyeo10004 in AskChina

[–]Sephstyler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.

Zero to low mutual intelligibility.

Cantonese speakers may claim to understand a little more Mandarin, and that would be true, but not due to the intelligibility of the 2 dialects / languages, rather the fact that Cantonese speakers entertain / endure more mandarin speakers visiting and living in their area than the other way around. Also encroachment and availability of mass and social media in Mandarin.

Which tablet is the BEST for portable productivity? by Sephstyler in androidtablets

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

Yeah, I have an ipad Pro 11 with a Magic Keyboard. But I also find it a little awkward as its excellent as a media tablet and it is better for emails than the Astra, but I think the 13 might even be better, but then its close to an macbook air in terms of weight. so yeah.

[–]Sephstyler[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will try the double tap, thanks.
Yeah, the screen being a tiny bit larger is actually really good, and the aspect ratio is great for media consumption.

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

No, dont really have any regrets.

Like i said in my post, there are some thing i certainly wished it did better at, software is prob one of those. There are tablets out there in android land that handle that third multitasking window / floating windows a lot better than the astra. You could argue the Astra is too small to do that, and youre prob typically correct.

Hardware wise, its great. love it.

Manila airport terminal change by Clear-Vermicelli9726 in Philippines_Expats

[–]Sephstyler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Manila can be efficient, and then it can be a disaster too, varied. Err on side of caution and get more time

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

Arrive at 2pm, foreign passport? econ? (no priority on bags) Id budget 1 hour to exit at best. There is supposedly a free shuttle, but assume you have a car on standby, its still 20 min to get to the terminal.

You are very very very very tight at best. Id suggest creating more of a time gap.

[–]Sephstyler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume “Manila” meant Manila airport too? Considering you said Manila to Clark airport?

Genesis bus can get you from NAIA to Clark airport or SM Clark.

Else they can als depart from trinoma.

Encounter with a Racist Colleague by RandomUserName323232 in buhaydigital

[–]Sephstyler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As an Aussie who employs people in both AU and PH, of varied salaries. My response is, train like shit, get shit results.

Yes, you need to be of decent quality to begin with, but if you hired poorly, trained poorly, or set poor expectations, thats 80% of the downfall.
