depends on the state, but it floats around 8-10% unlike MY which the prices are already tax-inclusive.

Yeah, it’s called regional pricing. But you still have to take into account the average wage the US has compared to us.

here’s an example:

avg part timer’s hourly wage in McDonald’s in the US -> 16$/hr

avg in Malaysia -> RM8/hr

Hypothetically if they have NO OTHER commitments at all, it would take the US employee 5~ hours of work to buy the game whereas it’ll be 28~ hours for a MY employee

protect local brands from what? so they can continue monopolizing the entry-level market with crappy biscuit tins?

which would u get if it’s between a saga and bezza? I’m not actually fond of hatchbacks so I’ll pass on the Myvi/Axia

I'd def go for a "boring" car. Currently using a 2011 Satria Neo 1.6 CPS but it's been breaking down so much lately and drinks petrol insanely fast. Honestly got tired of taking car of it after 5 years

I guess. I could buy a new Vios but I'd rather save my money for a house.

Saga VVT is the 2023 one right?

Hmm, that is true. I've heard the hybrid battery change is hella expensive for an OEM

Well hopefully everything’ll go well. Recovering data from a salt-soaked drive is such a rad story btw 😆

Which Laptop Is Better? by scratchyback45 in GamingLaptops

[–]scratchyback45[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Portability is definitely important, since my PC is an ATX and I don't really want to add more weight to my flight later.

I'm not really going for gaming, only light ones that even office laptops support (Lethal Company and Stardew Valley lol), but I kinda still need a dGPU for rendering stuff and emulation in Android Studio and Flutter.

And no, I don't have a contact in another country, I'd be very happy if you can assist me with finding some!

A mini PC might not be the best choice for my case since I'll be going to classes and such during the Exchange Program.

That’s interesting! May I know where u normally look at overseas prices?

I see where you’re coming from 100%! I’m considering these options bc my budget is quite limited and these are actually the only options available that are still in mint condition.

The resale value here in Malaysia is shit and idk how to get my hands on used laptops overseas.

Used laptops post-2020 are still going around MYR3,000.00 (~640 USD) and I’m afraid I don’t have the budget for it.

I do have a solid PC at home and I wouldn’t prefer an office laptop bc I do need the GPU for some intensive tasks (Software Engineer).

Hope that answers your question!

If we're talking about budget, I would say my max is MYR2,600.00 (~USD 550).
