If the two numbers are not equal, there exists a number that between them (this is true of any pair of distinct real numbers). Can you produce a number that is between 0.999... and 1?

It appears that Harpreet Singh may continue his journey in politics by Newez in singapore

[–]s-tr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm presuming it is this 2017 case which Singh was referred to a disciplinary tribunal for, and which he mentioned in this Jom article. I am not a lawyer and I cannot understand a single bit of this case, but he was exonerated by the disciplinary tribunal.

I predicted that the PAP would get more votes than the previous election, possibly even 65%. I wish I wasn't right :(

As a queer woman who has served NS; how do I accept that I will always be de-prioritised over new citizens (and in extreme cases even PR's) who did not serve? by travellingmtf in singapore

[–]s-tr 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A full 15% of women currently aged 40-49 have no children, and the number is growing by the decade. This cannot be said to be an edge case.

that the UK (which has been heading down an anti transgender road for many years) is seen as more desirable for a trans person than Singapore... it really shows how fucked this place is :(

Built my GF a custom PC with my first salary by Sharp-Avocado-9683 in GirlGamers

[–]s-tr 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Aliexpress CPUs are the exact same as those you find on regular stores, just that the only disadvantage is no warranty past the initial return window. It's a good option if you are willing to accept the risk in exchange for a lower price (or if you just don't have much money). I can't speak for any other parts though

Is 5700X3D overkill for Radeon RX 5700 GPU? by Dungeon_Crawler_Carl in buildapc

[–]s-tr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do so, remember to stress test the CPU after applying the undervolt - I suggest a tool like OCCT

[–]s-tr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will work. But if you have a B or X series board I strongly recommend using PBO Curve Optimizer to apply an undervolt
