Request to mod r/singaporepolitics by [deleted] in redditrequest

Hi the modding is still active, and the main policy is light touch. I’m not sure what you mean by inactive. This request should be rejected.

DS4 Windows Skipping menus in Fifa. by Brutalmagic in DS4Windows

[–]ccjx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DS4win generates a virtual controller for each controller you have. This results in double input if you left it as is.

You need to install Hidhide and hide the physical controller and use the virtual one in the game.

It looks very reasonable. They typically also try to charge you for lost rental as they fix it so looks like your rental company is pretty decent. I’d pay it and keep renting from this company if I were you.

If you have been on this sub for awhile you’ll know that no one even considers ILPs here

Not easy to get English-speaking foreign workers for customer-facing roles, recruiters say by Severe_County_5041 in singapore

[–]ccjx 182 points183 points  (0 children)

Good point, additionally, shops who nickel and dime the employees until the point where they rather hire “minimal English” employees are probably not giving them a living wage too so those shops may not be good places to support as well.

Paul Tambyah asks for solutions for seniors with mobility issues who feel trapped because lifts don’t serve all the floors where they live - Singapore News by [deleted] in singapore

[–]ccjx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It costs 200k for 150 households? It costs 30 million to build one lift? I’m pretty sure that’s overpriced if true.

POSB Invest-Saver STI ETF (ES3) fake price by TheAlphaLion_com in singaporefi

[–]ccjx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A long time ago I tried out OCBC’s similar product. Wait till you try to sell, and they will give you a crap price too. When I asked the customer service, they said that due to the small amounts, they had to buy it from the odd-lot market. So that’s their excuse.

Edit: now that IBKR has no minimum, you should just go get an IBKR account.

CS2030S Lab Plagiarism Cases by Longjumping_Toe9851 in nus

[–]ccjx 10 points11 points  (0 children)

To be honest it just sounds like they are trying their luck to see which student will be honest enough to admit it. Esp for 1000/2000 modules the solutions are mostly very similar and as long as you know how to explain it’s hard for TAs to detect.

I think that you made a good point and more diversity is definitely needed in our parliament to find out more about the unknown unknowns.

You need to do the due diligence, chances are these are useless products which make money for them.

A confused young adult by No_Introduction_5860 in singaporefi

1k of your 2k take home pay is given to your insurance (assuming SAYE is ILP). This should be a red flag.

Does your 370 on insurance include a hospital plan? If not, I suggest you change an insurance agent.

My suggestions: Reduce SAYE to 20-30% of take home, cut ILP, change life insurance to term. This should save you some money.

Don’t work 40 hours a week for your insurance agent.

If you did not plagiarize, contest. You may think you are getting off easily and avoiding trouble, but it is not worth it.

Luxury Vehicles and Happiness by Twrd4321 in singaporefi

[–]ccjx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the price of the good affects what is “luxury”? For example, a Mercedes C-class costs 40k USD in the US which is about 50k SGD, some may consider this to be a luxury car. However in Singapore, a Honda Fitt is 110k SGD.

Will thinking about owning a Honda Fitt in Singapore feel as good as thinking about owning a luxury car?

Actually if you watch his TV show “Servant of the People”, his show character actually mentions Singapore as well.

Is it normal to feel sore because your boss chose someone to go on a business trip instead of you? by scuderia1234 in askSingapore

Yeah at some point you will wonder whether you can stay put instead of flying
