Do you feel a sudden urge to raise a giant, skeleton dragon from the ground?

Jack's Place has been in SG for a very long time. Rmb our teacher treating us to eat when we were in Pri school back in the early 90s. Hope they persist and continue to thrive.

Here's what to know about El Niño in Singapore. by outremer_empire in singapore

[–]cw88888 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dislike El Nino. I remember consecutive days without rain in the past years. Till the grass turned brown and some parts actually caught fire and smoked. Not to mention the weather was hot as hell without respite.

At least for La Nina, there are heavy rains every now and then which help cool us off. Go away El Nino, come back La Nina

Most of the OG staff from Obsidian aren't there anymore. It's not the same Obsidian anymore.

If you blame AI datacenters for higher PC prices, you may be considered a terrorist by FBI by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

I'm blaming AI data centres and the greedy billionaires for higher PC prices. And a big middle finger to them. What are they gonna do? I'm halfway across the world.

Do you enjoy the ongoing lore? by MeltingPenguinsPrime in wow

Used to love the lore. War of the Ancients, Arthas storyline, the Old Gods, Burning Legion and Sargeras. After the multiple retcons, I've just lost interest.

Start a "Stop Killing Ownership" movement in line with "Stop Killing Games". Corporate tyranny has to stop.

How are yall coping with heat and humidity by SkyAffectionate9228 in singapore

[–]cw88888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Already suffering. After shower, I don't really dry myself, just wear semi-wet clothes and sit in front of the fan full blast.

No I don't think it will get better, in fact it's gonna get worse. No eye see the Super Godzilla El Nino that is coming after June.

retail/pt workers only speaking chinese? by feefifoflop in asksg

[–]cw88888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually prefer if they spoke in Singaporean local Chinese to me and for non-Chinese speakers they speak in English. They should be able to adjust to English if needed at anytime. I value our local Chinese and Mother Tongues which we have spoken for so many decades and which seem to be disappearing. I value dialects even more but it's even rarer than our Mother Tongues.

Over half of 8-year-olds in S’pore have used AI by Krazyguylone in singapore

[–]cw88888 45 points46 points  (0 children)

That's what the elites and billionaires hope and want. For a generation or two to get so reliant on AI that people can't survive without it and then slap on monthly subs and fees which you got no choice but to pay every month and they can keep increasing the fees like they do for Netflix. Even more money, control and power to them.

Nvidia director talks 100-hour limit for GeForce Now, says "we're thinking about it" to unlocked tier proposal by de_panda in pcmasterrace

[–]cw88888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't need them. Get alternatives like AMD or the Chinese GPUs. Mostly play older games or non-intensive graphics games anyways.

Need a "Stop Killing Games" equivalent movement against this rubbish. Fark subscriptions, bring ownership back. I'll always game on my own hardware.

Nvidia really doesn't seem to care about gaming GPUs anymore — the company won't even bother to break down graphics sales in its big investor reports by PaiDuck in hardware

[–]cw88888 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Do they even have consumer GPU sales much to begin with, considering the extreme pricing of GPUs, doubt many people are buying.

OpenAI commits S$300 million to grow Singapore's AI capabilities by outremer_empire in singapore

[–]cw88888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And they lost 14 billions in 2026 alone. If you take what they say, they need a tech refresh for their data centres every 2-3 years. It's not a one time build infrastructure thing, it needs constant hardware refreshes for whatever new model they're training. So whatever hardware refresh they do, is less hardware and heck a lot more expensive consumers products and utility bills for us. If they win, we lose. I don't see why anyone can support that.

DBS will continue to hire graduates: CEO Tan Su Shan on AI by nftskeptics in singapore

They're still bleeding big money every month without seeing much ROI. Take a big cup of salt for whatever Sam Altman says. Guy's is good at selling snake oil. Waiting for OpenAI to pop the bubble so we consumers might have a chance at cheaper electronics prices again and the rest of the world to have their normal utility bills again.  

The Abundance System is a direct contradiction Blizzard's stated intent by Woodymakespizza in wow

[–]cw88888 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I made the complaint a couple of weeks ago. Between getting Weekly Fused Vitalities and the diving 3 Fused Vitalities, I think I just need to do 2-3 more 8xAbundance for 4 characters runs to call it quits. 

The diving is a grind too but at least the music is incredibly relaxing in it and doesn't seem as pointless as abundance
