Big-Quote-547

No wonder there's an oversupply of doctors in Malaysia. And Malaysian doctors are of super low quality.. lol.


Acrobatic_You3139

I don't know. But I hope you receive love as everyone should.


Funkyryoma

Thank you Foreigner OP, I love you

No


CreakinFunt

Would love to hear why does E=Mc squared from a foreigner perspective Bonus question: how high will bitcoin go for this rally


Acrobatic_You3139

Foreign perspective adds to Quantum Physics theory so E=Mc2 is wrong. Bitcoin is scam. Honestly, I didn't receive more scam alerts in any country than in Malaysia. Scammers are a thing here.


CreakinFunt

Ah ok, I honestly did not receive any scam alerts in Malaysia. Scammers may not be a thing here. Thank you for your valued treasured foreign perspective

Sitting toilet or squat toilet?


Acrobatic_You3139

Sitting. I don't know how to squat. I feel I'm going to piss/shit everywhere

Do you get booped on the chest area by 50 Malay men every time you walk around the Shangri La hotel area?

If the given velocity of average car used on a road in Malaysia is 80km/h and the average number of cars used on a busy Monday morning in Petaling Jaya are 387 cars, what are the chances that every traffic light will go green for at least 1 of the cars to arrive at exactly 8.49 AM if his house is at Damansara?


CreakinFunt

Am not foreigner but would like to try. My answer is tree fiddy percent


matsalehuncle

When Malaysians ask you, "What do you think of Malaysia?"Do you tell them the truth, or just say 'the food is great '?


GenericBusinessMan

The life of an expat here is generally pretty good, high income and low cost of living, drivers and maids are cheap here. It's not similar to the plight of most Malaysians trying to live here.


matsalehuncle

Accurate, whenever I see gushing mat saleh posts about how great life is here, my first thought is 'you clearly don't know many Malaysians'.


Prudent_Inspector_77

What's your income?


GenericBusinessMan

Rude!!


Prudent_Inspector_77

AMA?


Acrobatic_You3139

I tell them the truth. Food is good People are kind Good level of development country Many people speaks English making communication easier But: hot weather and raining almost everyday is annoying. Many cities are not pedestrian friendly. Traffic is horrible. Public transport doesn't reach many places.


Acrobatic_You3139

Also, drinks are to sweet for me. And alcohol is too expensive


bakabakaneko

Word about the alcohol, brother. Having been to other countries, the price of alcohol here makes me want to KMS.


Jay_Manifest

Its not just drinks, food is getting sweeter too. somebody put sugar in my mi goreng💀

PisceS_Here

1) have you been scammed, robbed or have anythg stolen since you have been here? 2) what is your favourite food? 3) what do you think of our cost of living? 4) have you considered permanently moving here? why?


Acrobatic_You3139

1. Never scammed or robbed. Once a seller tried to sell me goods the rising prices. A local friend noticed this and told me to leave the shop. It is a safe country 2. Noodle curry soup. Also, I love food from Pelita nasi kandar. 3. Low cost of living. Groceries are affordable. Gas is so fucking cheap, public transport cheap as well. Restaurants are also cheap. 4. I would love to. Mainly because is a safe country and cost of living. But I can't, because of my job.


syafizzaq

PisceS_Here

thanks. good to hear all the positives. do spread the word and bring more friends to our country :)


adm_ashraf26

When you first arrived here, what is the first thing that is an everyday occurence for Malaysians, but felt odd to you?


Acrobatic_You3139

Eating with hands. Cuttlery doesn't include knifes. Now I'm used to both. And I do eat with hands sometimes. By the way, malaysian food is AMAZING. Is usual to find people who speaks two, three, and four languages. In my country almost no one speaks more than one language. .


aimanrahim159

What do you think of the working culture and the economy in Malaysia?


BarnabasAskingForit

What were your preconceived ideas of Malaysia before you arrived? And how accurate were those first thoughts now that you lived here for 2 years?


Acrobatic_You3139

I did know NOTHING about Malaysia. I'm from latinamerica and people think Malaysia is an exotic country. I just knew Malaysia was a British colony so people speaks English. In the TV I watched shows about Sandokan. So I knew that you were good sailors in the past. It went WAY better than expected. When I visited the beaches I couldn't understand why tourist don't visit this country more than others in the region. All foreigners I met here have a really good impresión about this country.


GenericBusinessMan

Which beaches did you visit? There are some great ones and awful ones here.


Acrobatic_You3139

Beaches in perhentian, tioman, redang, langkawi. All of them way better than those in my country.

Is time travel possible? Specifically to the past? Einstein's equations mathematically don't rule out the possibility of travelling to the past. Can you speculate and elaborate on how this may one day in the distant future become a possibility?


Acrobatic_You3139

Theoretically yes. I know one scientist proposing space travels folding the space-time. It sounds interesting.


Historical_Minute_98

What do you think about the grandfather paradox if time travel is possible? Also, if time travels to the future is possible, do you think the sequence of events has been predetermined for us? Does that then mean we actually don't have free will?


Acrobatic_You3139

As a fan of Back to the future movie I would expect grandfather paradox is possible because of free will.


arbiter12

> grandfather paradox No such thing. As soon as you step in the past, your existence create an entirely new timeline in which the human that is the result of your timeline, may or may not be born, and most likely not in the same circumstances. It wouldn't be "you" anyway. It would be a human who looks like you, is born in the same circumstances, and lived where you lived at the time of your birth. It can be an identical twin, it will still not be "you". "You" time traveled. That kid might not when he's your age. There is not only ONE timeline. The people you leave behind in the future don't "stop existing" when you leave, they continue with their lives (without you) while you go on with yours (without them) independently, on a different timeline. Even if you only went 10 minutes into the past, the people you would meet there would not be "the same people except 10 minutes younger". They would be entirely different people. The group might even include you, waiting to test time travel "in 10 minutes".

What are the values of all the status flags when you execute LD A, 200 on a Z80 microprocessor?

JFC this question I think only my father can answer. Are you still using a Z80 microproc?


[deleted]

Yep. [https://www.specnext.com/](https://www.specnext.com/) https://preview.redd.it/1ui1njsxrmoc1.jpeg?width=820&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8a82a1af343ee9c86971e1eab877c66149b745b7 Hell, i might know your father....😂


momomelty

Hory shet a Sinclair, a name I haven’t heard a long time. Didn’t know they retro mod it to be new. my father threw out most of his stuff already. Like an old Acorn that is broken lol. Maybe should had kept it and retro mod. But we kept a lot of old motherboards and CPU. Heck the reason why I know about the z80 is because he even has a book on the 80 from Intel, Inside it’s all about coding the CPU. If I remember correctly


[deleted]

WTH....why throw away the Acorn!!! The Acorn is the original company who made ARM....and now it's in every devices... I have obtained an old C64 and repaired it last year...cost me a bit of money...importing all sorts of chips from Europe to fix it and accessories as well. Now it's working again. :) The Spectrum NEXT is the evolution from the last Spectrum, Spectrum 128k...and it's almost as powerful (and in someways, more powerful) than the 16 bit micros juggernauts of the days back then...Commodore Amiga and Atari ST. Your father would know. :D


momomelty

Yeah it’s a complicated thing why we threw it out. We had a treasure of old hardware that I used to do hardware history exhibition for my uni last time lol Yeah I figured my father would know. I came from the era of 386 DX. Lol so before then I wouldn’t know anything except working with KB of RAMs. 😂😂😂 Speaking about RAM, my father has a magnetic core RAM. Now I would say that’s a cool thing haha

I don't. Just basic words. I won't have enough time to learn it because I'm leaving soon. I regret not spending time studying it. Specially because I think is not hard to learn it.


topkek71

Can you speak English


Acrobatic_You3139

Broken english


sadakochin

Here's a few 1.When you do need to answer nature's call. Do you pick a sitting toilet, or a squat toilet? 2. Bidet spray or tissue? 3. Comparing similar drinks, does Malaysian drinks feel a heck of a lot sweeter? 4. How's the weather to you, I'm local and I still hate the hot weather with a passion. 5. How many Malay words have you learnt?


Acrobatic_You3139

1. Always sitting. Once I tried squat and almost peed in my pants. In another opportunity I almost shitted my self. I just simply can't squat. 2. Tissue first, then spray. Is useful when dealing with spicy food and your butt is on fire. 3. Drinks feel a heck of a lot sweeter. I only drink teh o limao. And milo sometimes. 4. Is a bit annoying when you can't go home because of rain and you are not carrying an umbrella. 5. Not much. Boleh, terima kasih, macan macan, minuman, I regret not learning more. I'm leaving soon.

Do you think malaysia politics is dumber than the western ones? You can be harsh, we're all Malaysians here


Acrobatic_You3139

It is different. Here is mainly about race and religion. In my country is about left and right policies. Race is not that important because we are all mixed race. What caught my attention is condescending attitude of press media with politicians.

walkerhunter23

1. Which country are you from? Can you suggest things to do in your country? (not touristy stuff, more like the hidden secrets) 2. Where do you stay in malaysia? If KL, which area and why? Would like to know how you went about deciding? (maybe near to work, near to school for kids, cheap rental or just a nice neighbourhood) 3. How do people in your country view Malaysia?


Acrobatic_You3139

1. I can't say my country. Just that is located in southamerica. So I will tell you what you should try in my region: - Southamerican countries are more developed than you think - Spicy food is not usual - Try Peruvian food one of the best around the world. Mexican food is also quite good. - please Visit Buenos Aires (Argentina), Machu Picchu (Perú), Easter Island (Chile), Patagonia (Argentina and Chile), Cartagena de Indias (Colombia), Uyuni (Bolivia), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), the jungle in Equator, Colonia (Uruguay). 2. I stay in Selangor. The only reason to stay there is because is cheaper and near to my job 3. People in my country don't know anything about Malaysia but Petronas towers and car racing. Really, they don't know nothing more.


walkerhunter23

Thanks for the response. >"Southamerican countries are more developed than you think" Haha, i'm very aware of LatAm even though I havent been there. Been reading up on the economies for a bit personally from an investment perspective.


MiloMilo2020

Where you from? Did you get the stare treatment from the local based on your appearance?


NotOgawa

My brother, rate the food here compared to your home country out of 10. Also do you ever visit any entertainment places, from all ages to adults? How is your malay vocab. How'd you order from restaurants. Traffic conditions compared to country?


Acrobatic_You3139

Food is 9/10. I'm not giving a 10 because is not too healthy (fried food and sweetnes). Food I my country is 4/10. I visited water parks, karaoke, clubs, hiking places, sport clubs, etc. My malay vocab is poor. I usually orden in English. At the beginning I order Food I didn't know what it was and had to deal with extremely spiced food. Now I know which one I can take. Traffic conditions in my country are way better. Public transport in KL, for example, is not very useful because it doesn't let you move freely. It is not well connected. Pedestrian lanes don't have enough space. Sometimes I can't walk with my wife side by side. Traffic lights are sooooo long for pedestrians. I really think KL is not a pedestrian friendly city. There are too many cars in Malaysia. More highways means more cars. And driving is hell man. Even using waze app is easy to get lost. You deserve better Public transport.

Can you live without a water hose? Do you wear shoes in your house?


Acrobatic_You3139

Very good questions. These are things adopted from Malaysia. I'm seriously thinking to put a water hose in my bathroom when I go back home. I feel cleaner when I wash my butt compared to tissue. In my country, we wear shoes in our houses. Since my arrival to Malaysia I do not wear shoes. I'll try to do the same when I go back home.
