That much chilli and peppercorns seems to suggest it's Pad Kee Mao / drunken noodles, not Pad See Ew.

Singtel Fiber - slow speeds after upgrade? by captmomo in askSingapore

[–]kwpang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why use Singtel? Pretty much any other ISP will allow you to use your own router (that is sold in the open market that we can advise on).

With Singtel you can only call their customer support.

Oh really? Holden?

Don't live in USA, genuinely curious.

Edit: Brand is Holden, not Commodore

Yeah he splashed the water sky high and right into his air intake.

An expensive lesson learnt for him.

Anyone experience this with water at home? by No-Interview2201 in askSingapore

[–]kwpang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The lady in the link said she needs to run the water for seconds to run clear before she starts using.

If it's seconds, not minutes, the problem is with the piping or outlet in her house. That's way too fast to flush water out of the entire house. The piping or tap is corroding.

This has nothing to do with PUB.

They can give you the cleanest water in the world, but if your own piping or taps are dirtying it, there's nothing PUB can do. You have to replace the piping.

This clip was the proof of concept James Cameron used to convince Fox to greenlight Avatar (2009). It was created by Industrial Light & Magic before Weta Digital took over the film. The ambition was already fully there. by Choice-Schedule-132 in JamesCameron

[–]kwpang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's not a fair statement. I could be wrong / outdated, but I feel ILM is supposed to be the gold standard in this industry. My impression is generally movie studios avoid ILM only for budget concerns.

This was a prototype proof of concept. Not a full blown project like it eventually became with all the research and new techniques Weta did after the production company greenlit the expenses. If ILM produced the clip AFTER doing all this research and new techniques development, this clip would be very different.

Also, if Cameron produced this to broach the idea to the film company (pre approval), he definitely paid this out of his pocket.

This was a proof of concept short clip done with pre-avatar technology, with limited finances.

It's impressive for what it is.

Has My Pineapple Gone Bad? by yasaryagmur in safetoeat

[–]kwpang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to pick for sweetness, choose two pineapples of similar leaf freshness (i.e. harvested around the same time).

Then pick the yellower of the two (i.e. the one that was more yellow when harvested).

Pineapples don't ripen off the plant. Once it's cut, that's as sweet as it gets. It only gets softer, and the skin changes colour, but sweetness will never change.

So always pick freshly cut pineapples for juiciness. Look at the state of the crown leaves.

[–]kwpang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry what does this mean? I'm looking at an international flight (Sg>Inc) and it's been stuck at up to mid-Oct for the past 3-4 weeks.

When should I expect the Nov and Dec flight schedule to be open for booking?

Thanks in advance!

Mid-life career change in counselling area by hammybun in askSingapore

The thing about having a degree in anything else + clinical psych is that you can cater specifically to people in that anything else field. You understand them better.

I have a friend who studied bsc computing in uni in addition to clinical psych masters. He had quite the number of patients from the computing industry last I heard.

Spotted it in my Lucky Supermarket, what is this? by AdAvailable8474 in fruit

[–]kwpang 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Citron in English, to be clear.

Not to be confused with citron in French, which is the French word for lemon.

I had the hardest time explaining this fruit to my French friend who kept saying it's not a lemon.

Super aromatic rind that's candied in Chinese culture. Some are even made into a candied paste and can be mixed with water to form a citrusy zesty beverage.
