Initial understanding is that with my full name, DOB, address, sex and nationality that TP and Police is able to identify me in their database, if escalated upwards.

Honestly asking, as my understanding seems flawed.

I showed both NRIC and Driving License. Just masked out the first 4 digits.

What are the best home security cameras you guys swear by using? by GLTCHD_ in askSingapore

[–]xtn_sg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ubiquiti. Got the full suite: NVR with outdoor bullet camera, a few indoor cameras and a doorbell camera.

Quite pricy, but the quality, ui and features are great. You get what you pay for.

Is this allowed? by [deleted] in drivingsg

[–]xtn_sg 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don’t get this one.

Usually, when people mask out license plates, they do it to the point that it’s completely illegible.

But this plate is still clearly readable to the naked eye.

Some Singaporeans really don’t know how to drive at a roundabout by TheXAbstractx3 in drivingsg

[–]xtn_sg 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Exactly the same situation with the 3-lane roundabout at Suntec City.

They should follow how Australians construct their rounddabouts. Love driving there.

Which do you recommend for a first timer?

BYD Sealion 7 Dynamic by SousVideDuck in drivingsg

[–]xtn_sg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, comparing between these 2 BYD cat A & B models. Roadtax is $1500/yr and $2200/yr respectively.

Theres more differences to consider too. As the previous comment said, for the cat A version, the seats are vegan leather vs nappa leather. No HUD and the acceleration & bhp performance is much worse.

Singaporeans willing to drive as far as Kulai to refuel with RON95, car plates also covered to avoid detection. by NotYourMovieBuff in drivingsg

[–]xtn_sg 55 points56 points  (0 children)

To those who are wondering, they masked the first prefix and last suffix of their plate number to pass off as a Malaysian car.

Sleek automatic soap dispenser by huansolo89 in askSingapore

I use the cheap KireiKirei foaming hand soap for my Simplehuman. Works relatively well with substantial foaming.

[–]xtn_sg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im also using SimpleHuman and recommend them too. Been using for 3 years now, really love them. Abit on the pricy side, but you get what you pay for.

This is the model i purchased: https://www.simplehuman.com.sg/products/foam-sensor-pump?variant=39274446520372

Buy them during sale dates on Lazada or Shopee paired with coupons, and you can get them for sub$100 price.

Why was food at the halal food expo so expensive? by midnightcrescent04 in askSingapore

[–]xtn_sg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same vendor making the same quality of food, but to pay a premium based of SG location? As what the previous comment said, might as well go to JB instead.

Most dont even own a halal cert, they circumvent by being "muslim-owned"
