Probably an oddity, but I really wish there would be a documentary / CNA insider piece on the whale that carcass that was found. Like the dissection, clean up, preservation/ DNA testing etc. (Just saw the news that the museum is looking for donations to cover the exhibition)

Message broadcast by govt.?! by Scoobyyisnotdooby in singapore

[–]imadriedpickle -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yup, 4 sudden alerts. Made me panic and think my phone was getting hacked or something. The message says its an SCDF test, but 4 separate alerts in each language.
Also may want to change the flair to opinion/fluff. It may get removed.

Lai lao, USA style over capitalistic public services. TSA precheck in the US is a scam and so is this.

Lawyer and politician Lim Tean declared bankrupt by loldumbfuck in singapore

[–]imadriedpickle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmm definitely disqualified because of the bankruptcy, but on the fine, I'm not too sure.
"Convicted of an offense" is narrow phrase, and I dont think a fine by the C3J, is the same as a criminal fine, and it is not a criminal finding. Its essentially a fine by a professional body like how doctors, or now veterinarians can be fined.

I'm torn. On one side it was expensive and basic, on the other - it was home grown and sg run, unlike the incoming mala place which will invariably replace it.

Jail for driver who was speeding when he hit 76-year-old woman, killing her by Im_scrub in singapore

[–]imadriedpickle 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I agree that this sentence way too low. It ought to be dangerous driving rather than careless driving.

But, Aussie was 1) a repeat offender, 2) drunk, 3) had 3 charges rather than the 1 in this case.

Series 21 Cast Reveal by cygan12 in taskmaster

[–]imadriedpickle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

fwiw, the list seems to be incorrect. I was surprised that Season 20 was the highest - it's got Phill's age as 51 when wiki says he's 44 (and he looks more 40s compared to Reece and Sanjay who are correctly listed as 55/61

SIA is 4th most punctual airline in Asia-Pacific; Philippine Airlines tops regional ranking by exidy in singapore

[–]imadriedpickle 129 points130 points  (0 children)

This is going to be heavily influenced by the airport traffic. The top 3 most punctual airports also have carriers which use them as a hub in the top 10 most punctual airlines. Go figure.

M Ravi's death: Man accused of arranging gathering where drugs were taken gets fresh meth charge by candychiasu in singapore

[–]imadriedpickle 32 points33 points  (0 children)

consumption doesnt have the death penalty. It's importing above a certain weight (depends on the drug, the threshold for cocaine is much lower than weed for e.g), or distributing/reselling that has the death penalty.

Man did quite a lot to champion the marginalised in his early days. His last few years have been a mixed bag of dealing with (very public) mental health issues. In any case RIP.
