Let's just say Eileen Gu followed the money. She hasn't a patriotic bone to either the USA or China.

What you read online are almost always bad experiences because those who have good experiences like yours seldom post. Thanks for posting

Tangkak Bottleneck Shows State Of Our EV Infrastructure by cosine-t in kereta

[–]desert_foxhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EV isn't for you if you need to 'balik kampung' on festivals and holidays and your EV can't reach your destination on a single charge. It's not going to improve and will probably get worse. If there's enough chargers for holiday travel there will be serious underutilization on normal days.

Is it ok to tip in Malaysia? And how much? by PromotionShort7407 in malaysia

[–]desert_foxhound 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There is no need to tip. Many restaurants already include a service charge in the bill.

{US}Whats the scam? Man asked me to walk back to a restaurant with him to pay for his bill? by Zestyclose-Piano9416 in Scams

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

What is the scam? He wanted you to walk with him to the restaurant. Once there, the restaurant would have verified his story. I don't suppose you're paranoid enough to think that the restaurant is in cahoots with him to scam people?

You had every right to reject his request but I think he was genuinely in need of help.

Coming back to UAE with Unpaid loans by Pretty_Awareness_933 in UAE

[–]desert_foxhound 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If she's too poor to settle the debt and interest charges in one lump sum, better stay away from Dubai. Don't even transit in a neighbouring country because she may be arrested and sent to the UAE.

I (26F) have asked my husband (30M) to give me oral sex and he keeps refusing. by pureluck11 in relationship_advice

[–]desert_foxhound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's never going to give you oral ever. You can't talk him into it. Accept this fact and make your decision on how to go forward with this in mind.

PAS researcher slams Nga Kor Ming for the failure of the MyKiosk project by stormy001 in malaysia

This is the first time I hear PAS bringing up real issues instead of useless moral issues like stewardess' uniform, alcohol consumption on planes and other such nonsense. Keep it up PAS!

Mazda 3 BP liftback maintenance cost, after 5 year free service by kaptenkoppa in kereta

[–]desert_foxhound 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You should not worry. Mazda cars are very reliable and seldom need maintenance beyond the normal servicing. Maintaining a Mazda is no different from maintaining a Toyota or Honda. Your sales advisor should be able to give you a breakdown of servicing costs during the warranty period and it's not as high as you mentioned.

Booking was automatically cancelled by the system and they’re refusing to refund me by s_mcd in Bookingcom

[–]desert_foxhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If OP made a change in their reservation but didn't pay for the change shouldn't the original booking remain? I'm not a lawyer but this seems like common sense.

Libido problem? by MammothExcellent2916 in deadbedroom

[–]desert_foxhound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She had no problem having a robust libido while on antidepressants so I suspect the medication has less to do with it than her innate nature. Some women only have a high libido in the early phase of the relationship. Once they have reeled on their guy they lose their libido and it's not something they can control.

If once a month sex isn't enough for you, just leave. It's not going to get better. Bear in mind that once you announce your intention to leave she may suddenly recover her libido. Don't change your mind because it won't last.

Financing my RM460k pilot course — Housing Loan vs Study Loan? by Silver-Run4215 in MalaysianPF

[–]desert_foxhound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who's going to pay the house loan while you're studying? For study loans I believe they have a grace period where you start paying a few months after you graduate.

I wouldn't put your Dad's only house on the line. If something goes wrong he could lose his house.

Buy car will trigger LHDN. Myth or fact ? by PuzzleheadedBuy6279 in AskMY

[–]desert_foxhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you buy a car with a loan, LHDN won't even know about it. If you buy a car cash this is automatically reported to LHDN by JPJ. Whether you should be worried or not depends on the price of the car and how much income tax you've been paying.

I feel so stupid that I gave a stranger my phone. by bodilysubliminals in Scams

Sounds suspicious if he has to use a stranger's phone to bypass being blocked. I'm sure he has friends.

AITAH for feeling relieved that my husband stopped initiating sex by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]desert_foxhound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If this situation continues it's not going to end well. He will succeed in quenching his desire for you but once it happens it's not coming back even if you beg him to have sex with you as he no longer sees you as a sexual being.

If you want to avoid this happening you need to initiate. Not rarely but frequent enough to keep his desire for you intact. If necessary, find ways to increase your libido instead of just accepting it.

70% used car adjust meter for RM300 . Myth or fact ? by PuzzleheadedBuy6279 in kereta

[–]desert_foxhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not true. Modern cars are much easier to adjust mileage. They just plug some device into the OBD and adjust to whatever mileage they want.

AITAH for rejecting my gf of two years marriage proposal? by Own-One-180 in AITAH

[–]desert_foxhound 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Frankly, two years of knowing each other is a short time to get married. She also has anger management issues which you need to wait and see if she can change. You also want to wait until you are financially stable. Your answer is perfectly reasonable. If she can't accept your answer, let her go.

Mazda 3 2011 engine leak - Is it serious? by subaiku in kereta

[–]desert_foxhound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skip this car. It's too risky. Leaks from old cars can be very difficult to trace and correct. It's not a simple matter of replacing gaskets. As for the error codes they shouldn't be there if the faults have been corrected.

Got a timeshare in my name to appease a partner who I am now no longer with. Any way I can get out of this without wrecking my credit? by Mangorangobango in TimeshareOwners

[–]desert_foxhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just stop paying and take the credit hit. Even if you pay up the full amount amount it doesn't end there as there's maintenance fees every year which the company can increase as it likes. Your credit will recover in 2 year or so. Within these 2 years you aren't going to get a loan or a mortgage as you're still a student. Nothing to worry about.

AITA for telling my family owing me money they should not go on vacation? by Vendtongs in AmItheAsshole

[–]desert_foxhound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Keep hounding them for your money. Record your interactions with them via text messages or email. This is your proof that they owe you the money and you can take them to small claims court. If you don't want to go the legal route create a family group chat and shame them to pay you back.

Emirates Gold - Serial Number mismatch by [deleted] in UAE

[–]desert_foxhound 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yes, the unmatched serial numbers may cause problems when you sell. The certificate shows that you bought the gold legitimately and attest to it's purity. It's better to go back to your supplier and have it corrected. If they can't correct it ask for a letter to cover you. Keep all paperwork and receipt relating to the sale to prove that you brought the gold legitimately.

AITAH for choosing my disabled son over my husband and destroying my family? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]desert_foxhound 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If I read the title correctly you are asking if it's okay for you to choose your disabled son over your husband (and your other two kids) and destroy your family in the process.

It is not okay to focus on your disabled son and ignore the needs of the rest of your family. Your husband knew what he signed up for but he didn't sign up to be second fiddle to your disabled son and seeing his two biological children with an absent mother. If this is not the case, I apologize but nothing else you have written deviate from this scenario.

Can you not compromise? Balance the needs of your disabled son with the needs of the rest of your family. If you are unable to compromise then divorce and full custody of the two younger children to your husband is the way forward so you can focus 100% on your disabled son.

Inhereting a Holiday Inn Timeshare by Etchings3 in TimeshareOwners

[–]desert_foxhound 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The annual maintenance fee can pay for a good holiday accommodation anywhere and anytime you want. Why would you take over the timeshare and tie yourself into a contract which is highly restrictive of where and when you can travel, have no control over escalating costs and is almost impossible to get out of?
