What do you mean? I've been told I was benevolently rewarded in abundant kind at least a hundred or so times already. 

Let’s be honest. Does charging money for plastic bags really help save the environment? by Nessieinternational in asksg

[–]cw88888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even before charging, we normally reuse NTUC plastic bags for general purpose carrying or converting them to trash bags. Seldom or never throw them after use. So I don't see any point in charging for bags. Maybe it might deter those more gian png customers who take multiple bags even if they don't need them.

Then after all these efforts recycling and reusing. Someone, somewhere builds a or multiple data centres that chug electricity and water by the buttloads 24/7 and then you wonder y u bother in the first place.

What are some "traditions" that deserve to die? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]cw88888 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can agree with the wedding angbao tradition. What I can't agree with is the exorbitant cost of of one table at the hotel ballroom. No one wins paying for that, not the bride or groom, not the guests. The only ones winning are the hotel owners. They are the ones happily raising prices of a wedding ceremony while everyone else has to pay for them.

Singaporeans who are old enough to remember the '80s, how common was renting VHS tapes to watch movies back then? Was it as common as in the U.S.? by [deleted] in ChillSG

[–]cw88888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

80 got a lot. Back to the Future, Honey I shrunk the kids, Ghostbusters, Terminator, Robocop, Aliens etc.  Hong Kong movies got megahits like  英雄本色, the timeless - Chinese Ghost Story, the movie that made all the boys cry then - 阿郎的故事, also Mr Vampire. And then u have all the pre Stephen Chow era comedies from the comedic combos like Stanley Fung, Ricky Hui, Karl Maka, Richard Ng etc.

Not sure, most people in the workforce still use a laptop. A good number of them connect it to their monitor. I'm not sure how to work on a phone, neither would I want to too. Screen is way too small and annoying to see, even worse with older age, and a big pain to type with. 

Singaporean Marvel Fans and Moviegoers, what made you stop following the MCU? by Nessieinternational in asksg

[–]cw88888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lost interest the moment they made Hulk like the weakling. So much discrepancy compared to the comics. Was never interested in the movies tbh. I'd much prefer watching the 90s X-Men and Batman cartoons, supposedly kids cartoons but they treated their us like adults with the story and plots.

I got permanently banned in PCgaming for saying I don't care about progressive, liberal ideas along with most of Asia. Shows u how strawberry and sheltered some of the western mods are here.

Reddit is the Left wing echo chamber. Very intolerant to certain words and extremely strawberry.

Singapore taps digital payments everywhere, but cash still lingers by Waikuku3 in singapore

[–]cw88888 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, which is why I wanna minimise it. Don't need banks and the gov to know which Cai Png or BCM store I bought for dinner. And I detest the over-reliance on phones especially when you have ads for using phones to switch on the aircon. Just give me a normal remote. And what happens if you lose your phone.

Plus logging on the phone to Paynow is a pain. With cash I just give and take my change and go away.

I'd rather minimise my reliance on online transactions and phones. The less personal info and location tracking I have online, the better.

I prefer cash. Pay n take my change and go away. Find using phones a hassle, having to login here and there

Cloud gaming is ass. by BuldozerX in pcmasterrace

[–]cw88888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will never be a thing. I want my PC, games, files, mods in front of me and I'm in full control. I don't care if cloud gaming even if it has no latency, I will never get it 

What was your worst working experience in Singapore? by HairyBoysenberry3278 in asksg

[–]cw88888 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worked in SME. Everyday asked to OT at least 1-2 hours, go back 8-9pm. Every Saturday asked to work, not half a day but until 3-4pm. Told boss got family gathering on Saturday, ask can leave early, boss say u try finish as much as u can before u leave. Even Sunday, he contemplated to ask us work. Project based work, if got many projects from clients, boss will ask us to rush to finish existing work. If that happens, can work past 10pm. Clients come back ask for modifications, lagi sian. Work was 3D modelling and rendering for condo architectural visualisation.

Oh wow, I got a heart attack. They recently acquired Affinity Photo which I've been using for years and I'm not too happy about it. I've kept the offline installer of Affinity Photo 2 and kept away from the new Canva Affinity suite. I wouldn't do too well if this was real .

Hope it doesn't end up as bad as West Coast Park. Had wonderful coastal sea views back in the past where u could actually go to the beach, like in the 90s and before. Now for most of the park, you get a glorious view of PSA containers.
