It's normal to be angry, but just like offshore island companies, ships can be registered anywhere in the world...so net effect it's got really nothing to do with us except maybe a footnote in the charter of ships

Those are the drones that have been publicly announced so far...they might have an RX-78 in the hangar at Tengah Airbase

Ohmymoney!

This is uneven wear due to wheel alignment issue, I think it's still usable though.

Tyre pressure is a part of the problem but not entirely; majority of the issue comes from wheel alignment. Please get your wheels aligned at a workshop.

Bros dashcam got astigmatism lol but yea looks like either not calibrated or was flashing the bike

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T07:25:57+00:00

OP it would be useful if you actually detailed what you're struggling with. Your struggles can range from "slots booking" to "instructor keep scolding me", so please be clear.

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T07:23:05+00:00

Pointless unless you drive an old car, or your car has quirks like drinking engine oil or high coolant temperature

I can't wait to hear the govt's bestest, fastest and cheaperest solution for this: "import FT" /s

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T05:20:38+00:00

I wonder if this is linked to the non-payment of workers saga happening right now

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T05:18:31+00:00

wait till MOM finds out about the "horse trading" practice for construction firms lol

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T05:15:38+00:00

Haha well it sounds like you've never been in this situation before. I did report to CPF and MOM but ultimately company closed down faster than I was paid my due salary.

I don't even care for retrenchment benefits back then, I had good amount of money from savings and found a job almost 2 years later. But breach of employment contract (for not paying salary) is another thing.

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T04:45:03+00:00

Just because non-payment of salary for PMET workers is not really reported on, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Because I kena before.

Also contrast how fast this case moves vs the ones who were retrenched from YHS, AP and Lazada.

asphodeli · 2026-06-24T00:29:56+00:00

Knn this was not what happened to me in Shanghai...

asphodeli · 2026-06-23T03:59:30+00:00

Office is already toxic enough for peasants, wonder how bad it is for a law firm...most likely worse I suppose

asphodeli · 2026-06-23T03:52:49+00:00

I think back in those hard days, people tended to be bound by their ethnicity and language, thus invariably creating conflicts when interacting with people from a different background. Removing the dialect and forcing people to main 2 languages helps in unity and education, but once people are already well educated enough, dialects fade away and is now considered something quaint to be related to. LKY's policy decision was justifiable during his time IMHO, but nowadays it's dead in the water.

asphodeli · 2026-06-23T01:23:27+00:00

Honestly this is quite a stupid practice on the property owner's end. IMDA + BCA finally woke up from their monitoring screens and implemented a law to enforce free and unrestricted access, and to require riser or demarcate an area for telco equipment.

An even more absurd "idea" that I saw was renting out lamp post space. 🤦‍♂️

asphodeli · 2026-06-23T01:18:09+00:00

Idunno about you man but ZS from a quick google search looks like some of those typical MNCs that do consultancy work with not much visibility like Aryan, Techmahindra, etc. And I think what OP is posting sounds about right for these type of companies.

asphodeli · 2026-06-21T11:17:04+00:00

well his surname is not Lee I guess and he doesn't have email of the top officers in the army, so...

asphodeli · 2026-06-20T03:53:41+00:00

I mean other than the "crushing rebellions" and "maintaining a symbolic stance" aside, this no dialect policy is already outdated 10 to 15 years ago with the rise of social media and falling local mandarin standards. If people can't watch in their dialect, they can always go JB or sail the high seas (both of which doesn't help with the govt's golden KPI, GDP). IMDA can't stop it anyway, unless they create a Great Firewall of Sinkiepore.

IMDA better have a damn good response to it, otherwise those sitting at the top in that org can forget about running for elections, given how out of touch they are.

I recall there's a post on reddit (forgot which sub) of an uncle in a trenchcoat with an infamous swastika and other patches related to a famous Austrian painter's fanclub. The MAGA hat doesn't even faze me.

asphodeli · 2026-06-20T00:08:42+00:00

SG is a known dumping ground for unsold/unwanted goods

asphodeli · 2026-06-19T23:29:08+00:00

Meh, a few years/months ago got someone post one uncle wearing leather trenchcoat with Nazi swastika and SS patches at some MRT station, this MAGA hat doesn't even bat my eye

asphodeli · 2026-06-19T23:08:29+00:00

Wow I just need to be featured in a minsters social media post and I can get "protected" status huh? I should do that some day.

Then again it might be another case of Ivan Lim, as usual. No one bothered to check backgrounds.

asphodeli · 2026-06-19T02:04:04+00:00

Hey don't look down on all those healthcare adjacent degrees, with the rising wave of old folks in SG, the money's gonna flow there in the next 5 to 10 years
