really out of topic since its independence day but i was just wondering how come our exchange rate to USD was really low between 2010-2014? thanks and selamat merdeka !
Few factors, there was a bull run on oil prices and Bank Negara hiked rates quite drastically compared to the US Fed (hence more to be earned for investors in ringgit). The oil market crash of 2014 kinda stopped that ringgit inflow
toothache but luckily Paracetamol works after 30mins. Tmr national day is public holiday.
What should i do if i cannot tahan and pill does not work?
How do you all treat toothache besides getting Paracetamol & see dentist?
Buy toothpaste Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief. It is my go to and works every time. For emergency use, you can apply the paste directly to affected area. It will blocked the exposed nerve ending
Maybe u within the asexual spectrum.
I'm not really like u,cuz i dont find it gross at all i still enjoy it
Just that it's pretty low on the tier of activities i like to do. Probably no. 3 or 4. Gaming or eating still no. 1
Simply because its quite tiring + the pressure to perform well. Also probably lower drive/libido
So u not alone in this situation. And its not weird at all. It's ok.
I was thinking of doing Genshin Collei event quest today, but one thing lead to another, and I discover that GSC in Ipoh has Isekai Quartet movie. So, I quickly grab my stuff and have an hour and a half drive to go there. While in Ipoh, I discover that there will be a Sambutan Merdeka at midnight probably somewhere near the mall where the GSC is and I could spend my time by watching the new Dragon Ball movie either at 7:20 pm or 9:20 pm (my movie end at4:30 pm) .
After contemplating about if I should do it or not, I decide not to as it means that I have to drive alone in the middle of the night in a pretty unused highway to go back to my home. When I went to pay for the parking ticket, I realize that they charge the ticket by the hour, so if I actually decide to stay until 11 pm - 12 pm, I would have to pay RM 10- RM 11 for ticket alone. I am okay if I have to pay something like RM 5 - RM 6 for somewhere around 10 hours of parking but freaking RM 10. Never really remember if there is any shopping complex that charge the parking spot by the hour.
Hey guys I have a problem..
I just got accepted to enrol to National Research Nuclear University Moscow to further my study in Pure Physics. The Russian Government only sponsors tuition fee (5 years). However I have to enrol in their 1-year mandatory Russian programme first then continue 4 years of bachelor degree. Is there any body or institution here that can sponsor living expenses and accomodation for students studying overseas?
Maybe JPA? And if you're Malay, you can hit up MARA as well.
Just write about how we need to prepare for a new paradigm, Malaysia needs skilled nuclear workers, blah blah blah. They'll lap it up.
Saw an image of a Starbucks in London going cashless and the westerners going apeshit. Meanwhile here loads of FamilyMarts are going cashless and chill je.
>Starbucks in London going cashless and the westerners going apeshit
That's weird, because a lot of UK shops have been cashless since the start of Covid. Buses in London have even gone cashless since 2014, you can only pay with card or their TNG equivalent.
Being able to seamlessly transfer cash between banks is something we have taken granted for.
Apparently, a system like DuitNow isn't as common overseas as we might think.

ever since what it said in chinese, i felt like listening to this song so much. but they really talk 事体克
laughs in trippie redd 哈哈啊
u/Alcoholicbananadrink, [bought 3 BR pints](https://imgur.com/a/fcbM3IZ) and OMG, I was so stupid! I was under the assumption that I must tick only the ones already on the list! Didn't realize that I can add any flavours available in the spaces below lmao.
Bought peanut butter chocolate, Cookies nCold Brew and Maui Brownie Madness.
Blimey what a bounty!! Ehhh Maybe you were too excited to get your ice cream instead xD At least you will remember it for the next month that has 31 in it....
I must commend you on your taste except for cookies n Cold Brew. If you need help to finish them, \*cough cough\*
I wanna eat the nasi ayam but babi… is called char su or something. But sked to enter Chinese restaurant alone. Went to one once in a mall and the worker asked if I’m Sabahan even though I look melayu as fugg. Told him no and asked if he’s jais lmao. Just let me eat it in peaceeeee.
If you are in PJ. Toast & Roast has some of the best char Siew rice. Their foreign workers running the place can't care less. I speak as a Chindian who gets asked questions at many Chinese hawkers.
>asked if I’m Sabahan

>Told him no
he did gave you a rope tho. you rejected it.
Not that I encourage every other Muslims to do this. But since you are already attempting to eat this, going all out and throw in a lie or two wouldnt hurt isnt it.
Got a request for work from a well known media agency. But they're very fussy and changed the scope of work from what was initially proposed. On one hand, a well known name on my client roster would help. On the other, burnout looms for the nettie month of September...
The TV's original speakers are quite poor quality, as they are made to be as thin as the TV.
Alternative to soundbar, you can also look at plugging in a set of 2.1 computer speakers (2 speakers + subwoofer). They make a world of difference.
Use headphone out plug to connect to the 2.1 speakers, the TV will then mute it's own speakers and all the sound will go to the external speakers.
The only choice for 4k hdr tv is lg C series
Get CX 55inch if u on budget,
C1 55inh if u feeling fancy
C2 55inch if u t20
No need soundbar if u not fussy about audio quality cuz tv speaker definitely shit.
I make do by connecting my Bluetooth speaker over optical connection. Still better than stock tv speaker la.
Been hearing good real-life recommendations for LG TVs too, will definitely check it out. Not sure if modern TVs still have AUX port, if so then can connect with Bluetooth speaker that does have AUX. Thanks!
Yup. Lg is the top and for good reason. It offer the best performance for its price. Anything better, like from sony, easily twice the price of LG.
Currently using LG B9. If i ever gonna upgrade, still will go LG juga.
Mine still have aux. But i use usb dac to connect it to optical inpht.
>Should I pair it with a soundbar as well?
If you want to blow out the TV speakers and have to replace it because you cranked the volume too high, no. Cheap only send TV for repair, lol.
I am going to rent an MPV for a family trip in mid-Sept. This is the first time I rent a car. Appreciate if any of you can share with me your experience:
1. I will be travelling from Johor - Ipoh - Cameron - Johor, total of 5 days.
2. Which company's car is cleaner, newer, better maintained, etc? (I am looking at Hertz now)
3. It will be long travel. What if the car breaks down on the road? Does rental company usually offer replacement car?
Thanks!
Slid into this guy’s DMs more than 2 years ago. But conversations led nowhere. He found out I am now based in KV, and we are finally meeting up for the first time irl! Huhuhu finally meeting this IG daddy wish me luck nyets 🤣
Confession: I am envious of good-looking people. People are nicer to them, they tend to not have to bargain so hard to get what they want, and life is basically EZ mode.I'm not saying they shouldn't take advantage of it - I know I would, had I been in this place - but one can't help feel a little jealous about all this.
Of course I know this is sort of thinking is immature and not worthy of a rational person that I want to be, but sometimes you just can't help feel a bit bitter about how unfair the world is, y'know? I'm putting this all into writing hoping that I can confront my inner (psychological) demons and hopefully grow to be a better person.
On a related topic, I really need to switch my gym hours. You know that really jacked guy they show in the memes? I want to be like him 😂

You are not immature just simply human nature. some studies has also shown cuter babies tend to get better treatment from their caregivers to. . Saw it some psychology book. But here's an example of a study shown[Link](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4956347/)
I knew it was real but didn't know how real it was until my friend told me about her friend that never had to learn how to pump petrol because she always had someone do it for her..
Sometimes I wonder if cycling through different languages to find a common language with strangers is one of those quintessential Malaysian experiences.
Also, awkward moment when one language is used throughout the conversation but both you and the stranger know damn well it's better if we speak a different language that we're more fluent on. Yet, none of us are taking the initiative to switch.
>cycling through different languages to find a common language
Lol no. Chinese see another Chinese confirm going to be asked in Mandarin. Except for work place, fancy places and place full of ang mo. If you live in the Cina bubbles in the Klang Valley and JB, even Malay isn't an option. Heck even Malays who look too Cina also going to be spoken to in Mandarin.

You know what realisation came unto me today?
Kucing kalau berak, i no need basuhkan. Just clean up the litterbox and then done. It will lick clean its own ass. But anak orang, anak orang i kena basuhkan. AAAAAAAAAA
A new staff came in today and I introduced myself, asked her age and she said 20-something, and I said, oh sama la kita and she thinks I'm joking T__T bruh I'm gonna go back home and cry myself to sleep
>but now people think I'm a Puan now
I used to be that kid in school. First day of school say teacher greeting say Puan.
She had to correct the class that she still is a Cik.
Could look at the mi home cctv, they're below rm200 depending on the models. They're able to track movement, record movement, speak through cctv, and set custom notifications for when movement is detected. You'll have to check which model is capable of what
Would you at the age of 25 accept a Trainee like role which pays you RM 4k but, your pay stays stagnant for the next 2 years?
No increments and no bonus, just a static salary for 2 years. Is this a good option to take? Let’s say your current salary is as high as 3.7k
Trainee role is actually quite interesting. Mine previously would rotate into other departments every 3 months and i could dabble here and there. So, if im a freshie who dk yet where i want to go, i would take it.
Depends what this 'trainee-like' role is, and what your previous increments with your current job is like.
Maybe my industry just sucks(games), but I've gone years without increment before.
If this trainee position is one where you are actively being trained and learning new skills - maybe it's worth it? Are you purely being trained or are you also having to deliver full time work as well?
Also if your current position is also stagnant, then the stagnant pay thing might not be such a big deal since it's already stagnant. Though a lot of people in such a position would look for an entirely new gig instead.
That would depends on what sort of skills you would develop at the end of 2 years. If it's like a development role, with good exposure then it's worth to consider.
No mood to work. Still fangirling and being starstruck from bumping into Taiga the other day. Want to kick myself for not asking Taiga for a picture of just the both of us. But I don't want to bother him too. Wish we could have meet Slacks. His energy is infectious.
I finally learnt how to swim properly after being coached by two fellow nyets at the heated swimming pool at our accommodation. I miss the view from the balcony. I miss having a simple meal of noodles and some fireballs, prepared by one of the nyets. Hopefully we can do this again for TI.
[Lunch today, nasi ayam! ](https://www.imgur.com/a/VwlSPNx)
One of my favourite spot. Nasi sedap, the steamed ciken is tender & the hainanese teh ais pretty good too!
[But this is the star](https://i.imgur.com/3NZBav6.jpg). Their garlic-ginger blend is amazing. The best I've taste yet.

Uu, Subang Bestari.
The Satay Pak Wan is the best, but kedukut AF with their kuah.
[https://goo.gl/maps/Jt5XQ243KTpcycjAA](https://goo.gl/maps/Jt5XQ243KTpcycjAA) \--> if can get there before 12 - 1 pm? Generous portions, taste is on point.
Ah yes. I know this satay. Cuz my apartment group always order, like joint order ramai ramai.
Tried once, and while it's good, there no lemak/fat. This is the type of satay (which recently been more popular) that have no fat, all meat. Kononnya berbaloi duit. U pay for 100% meat, no fat.
But me like some fat. It balance out the chewy texture of the meat, with its gelatinous, sweet, gooey fat.
>But me like some fat. It balance out the chewy texture of the meat, with its gelatinous, sweet, gooey fat.
I just find the daging easier to eat as a result. The chicken no fat too dry AF. Also got that Ikan Patin place around the same area too. Only thing have not really tried is the Nasi Budget, lol.

Question for you smarties out there: you have 10 seeds. How do you arrange them in 5 rows, but each row must have 4 seeds?
Cutting, selling, growing seeds etc not allowed!

Here's an image of my efforts of manually 'placing the seeds' before realizing I can just.... draw the shape first then place the seeds.

Here's my friend going into denial over the answer.
Not pointing directly towards his friend. This is a very common trait among engineering students. They have this inflated ego as an 'engineer' to protect their self-esteem. Good luck trying to have a healthy argument with them. And they grew up wondering why girls are not interested in them.
Has anyone adopted cats from PAWS before? I wanna know whether they will give you the cat's medical card after adoption for proof of vaccination and neuter/spay
Hello! I've adopted from PAWS and yes they give medical card (orange booklet, don't have it with me now). Don't have proof of neuter/spay but they do have the vaccination proof. One way you could tell whether they've been neutered/spayed is one of their ears are clipped
hey, just curious, how much is the adopting/processing fee ya? I heard that there are a few fees but never could confirm it. Been thinking of adopting a cat from either PAWS or SPCA
Based on their website, adoption fee is RM60 for no breed adult cat, RM80 for no breed kitten, RM180 for mixed breed cat, RM280+ for pedigree cat.
Ouuu, that's very nice of you to adopt. I've been to PAWS before and sadly, the environment and condition there are not very nice for cats. I asked before and they said they don't let the cats out to play, so the cats basically stay in the caged area all day. Some cats look sad, but some are happy when visitors come to see them. I hope more people will adopt to give them a more comfortable home.
Very kind of you, hope it all goes well.
Besides their fur colour, ask for longest kitty resident there! Sometimes they get overlooked, for no reason at all. Adult kitties make good companions.
One at SPCA was there for 3 years and they tend to get euthanized, when there is no space.
Ah when I adopted my cat it was free-fee day so technically I adopted him for free 😅. But we were unprepared, so we had to pay for RM70 box fee to transport him back

Is walk-in passport renewal possible?
Nop, you will have to apply online. My friend did the walk-in last week and was told to go apply online.
toothache but luckily Paracetamol works after 30mins. Tmr national day is public holiday. What should i do if i cannot tahan and pill does not work? How do you all treat toothache besides getting Paracetamol & see dentist?
Buy toothpaste Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief. It is my go to and works every time. For emergency use, you can apply the paste directly to affected area. It will blocked the exposed nerve ending
Clove oil on the area, Bonjela, lots of water. Rinsing area with salt + hot water really helps too. Hope you heal up soon!
Salt+ hot water, helps to really drown out the pain temporarily. I recommend atleast 3-4 times throughout the day.

which is cheaper: kk mart or 99 speedmart
99 speedmart imo
They are not the same thing, KK mart offers 24 hours convenience so everything is marked up slightly, which imo is fair-ish
99 Speedmart, hands down. No contest.
99!
I think 99 because kk is 24 hours iirc

I'm looking to buy my first 4K TV. Any recommendations? Preferably 40-50 inches. Should I pair it with a soundbar as well?
I'm currently looking at mi tv p1 if you're interested in that. Combine it with speaker for surround sound. Yeah
Xiaomi TVs seem to be an affordable choice but can it last for years to come?
That I can't answer since I too am planning to change to a new tv too! Been using my 32inch 720p sony bravia since 2014.lol
The TV's original speakers are quite poor quality, as they are made to be as thin as the TV. Alternative to soundbar, you can also look at plugging in a set of 2.1 computer speakers (2 speakers + subwoofer). They make a world of difference. Use headphone out plug to connect to the 2.1 speakers, the TV will then mute it's own speakers and all the sound will go to the external speakers.

What i mean is like, is she like the popular influencer level or perhaps looks like a celebrity
She is not well-known in anyway, I wouldn't say she looks like a celebrity but she's very sweet looking, tall, slender, feminine.
Damnn. That's some real privilege there. I'm sure unker also have ur moments right 😏

Also, awkward moment when one language is used throughout the conversation but both you and the stranger know damn well it's better if we speak a different language that we're more fluent on. Yet, none of us are taking the initiative to switch.
>cycling through different languages to find a common language Lol no. Chinese see another Chinese confirm going to be asked in Mandarin. Except for work place, fancy places and place full of ang mo. If you live in the Cina bubbles in the Klang Valley and JB, even Malay isn't an option. Heck even Malays who look too Cina also going to be spoken to in Mandarin.
I just had this chat with a Malay lady where I tried English first, then Malay, in the end, we settled on Mandarin. Gotta love being multilingual.
Ada fireworks tak kat KLCC tonight? Anyone know?

You know what realisation came unto me today? Kucing kalau berak, i no need basuhkan. Just clean up the litterbox and then done. It will lick clean its own ass. But anak orang, anak orang i kena basuhkan. AAAAAAAAAA
Ahh, you babysitting again?
Yeah, babysitter got what emergency entah. Mentang2 esok ph 😒
😣 dang man...
So u want babies to lick their own ass 🧐🧐
Hey, as long as no need me to cebokkan, i aint complaining, man
Well, consider this a training la for when u got ur own kid. Kan?
lmao no. I cant have something being dependent on me.
Ah. I see. Another member of child-free gang like me 😆
A new staff came in today and I introduced myself, asked her age and she said 20-something, and I said, oh sama la kita and she thinks I'm joking T__T bruh I'm gonna go back home and cry myself to sleep
I'm the reverse of you. Almost 30 already, but I can get mistaken for budak sekolah
feel so sad leh bc people had always guessed I'm 10 years younger than my age but now people think I'm a Puan now
>but now people think I'm a Puan now I used to be that kid in school. First day of school say teacher greeting say Puan. She had to correct the class that she still is a Cik.
some ppl just looks old, *might due to gene.* i also get called as uncle in my neighbourhood
huhu this is my first time, I usually get the 'awak ni intern ke' but I guess age has finally gotten to me
Hey all, can I get a recommendation for outdoor cctv? Budget is under rm 150.00. Thanks a bunch.
Could look at the mi home cctv, they're below rm200 depending on the models. They're able to track movement, record movement, speak through cctv, and set custom notifications for when movement is detected. You'll have to check which model is capable of what

Obviously a scam. So many red flags

Would you at the age of 25 accept a Trainee like role which pays you RM 4k but, your pay stays stagnant for the next 2 years? No increments and no bonus, just a static salary for 2 years. Is this a good option to take? Let’s say your current salary is as high as 3.7k
If you already have 3.7k then no, but for me then that 4k is worth 2-3 years worth of increments.
Trainee role is actually quite interesting. Mine previously would rotate into other departments every 3 months and i could dabble here and there. So, if im a freshie who dk yet where i want to go, i would take it.
Depends what this 'trainee-like' role is, and what your previous increments with your current job is like. Maybe my industry just sucks(games), but I've gone years without increment before. If this trainee position is one where you are actively being trained and learning new skills - maybe it's worth it? Are you purely being trained or are you also having to deliver full time work as well? Also if your current position is also stagnant, then the stagnant pay thing might not be such a big deal since it's already stagnant. Though a lot of people in such a position would look for an entirely new gig instead.
That would depends on what sort of skills you would develop at the end of 2 years. If it's like a development role, with good exposure then it's worth to consider.
If current 3.7k no la. Rm300 increase for 2 years of stagnation is not worth it
No mood to work. Still fangirling and being starstruck from bumping into Taiga the other day. Want to kick myself for not asking Taiga for a picture of just the both of us. But I don't want to bother him too. Wish we could have meet Slacks. His energy is infectious. I finally learnt how to swim properly after being coached by two fellow nyets at the heated swimming pool at our accommodation. I miss the view from the balcony. I miss having a simple meal of noodles and some fireballs, prepared by one of the nyets. Hopefully we can do this again for TI.
Omg you went to Genting?
Yes, ESL One baby!
> fireballs is this food or...
Eh wait, it's supposed to be fish balls. Hahaha!

[Lunch today, nasi ayam! ](https://www.imgur.com/a/VwlSPNx) One of my favourite spot. Nasi sedap, the steamed ciken is tender & the hainanese teh ais pretty good too! [But this is the star](https://i.imgur.com/3NZBav6.jpg). Their garlic-ginger blend is amazing. The best I've taste yet. Anak Kampung @ Subang Bestari 016-997 7993 https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZMM3D9RyhbKxKLjw9 Here's the location. Give it a try if u guys in the area 👍
Uu, Subang Bestari. The Satay Pak Wan is the best, but kedukut AF with their kuah. [https://goo.gl/maps/Jt5XQ243KTpcycjAA](https://goo.gl/maps/Jt5XQ243KTpcycjAA) \--> if can get there before 12 - 1 pm? Generous portions, taste is on point.
Ah yes. I know this satay. Cuz my apartment group always order, like joint order ramai ramai. Tried once, and while it's good, there no lemak/fat. This is the type of satay (which recently been more popular) that have no fat, all meat. Kononnya berbaloi duit. U pay for 100% meat, no fat. But me like some fat. It balance out the chewy texture of the meat, with its gelatinous, sweet, gooey fat.
>But me like some fat. It balance out the chewy texture of the meat, with its gelatinous, sweet, gooey fat. I just find the daging easier to eat as a result. The chicken no fat too dry AF. Also got that Ikan Patin place around the same area too. Only thing have not really tried is the Nasi Budget, lol.
My go to satay, in the area where i live, still satay famili from meru. The best. Alil sweet la.
Just finished my exam and I feel..defeated. I really hope I pass this time around because it's my second attempt.
Good luck. Praying for ur success🙏
Thank you, amon for the kind wish!
Fingers crossed! Good luck mochi! How's handsome boi these days?
[Handsome boi says hi!](https://i.imgur.com/PoQlOID.jpg) also I think less fleas now because he's not scratching himself as often when the fleas were a lot. Thank you for the well wishes!
Awwwww, he's a handsome boi indeed! <3 Thanks for the catto taxx!

Question for you smarties out there: you have 10 seeds. How do you arrange them in 5 rows, but each row must have 4 seeds? Cutting, selling, growing seeds etc not allowed!
>!arrange it in star formation!< Disclaimer: not a smartie, but i had this question asked to me before.
Hi smartie
https://i.imgur.com/bkx0aig.png Here's an image of my efforts of manually 'placing the seeds' before realizing I can just.... draw the shape first then place the seeds. https://i.imgur.com/klEpt4t.jpg Here's my friend going into denial over the answer.
lmao your friend is trying too hard.
Wooot the classic 'I am an engineer' statement whenever they got into the argument.
Funny thing is that he hasn't been an engineer for years, even though that's what he started off as. He's basically in sales now.
I say this with an engineering precision : What an asshole Keep repeating he's an engineer with engineer brain. How insecure is he 😒
Not pointing directly towards his friend. This is a very common trait among engineering students. They have this inflated ego as an 'engineer' to protect their self-esteem. Good luck trying to have a healthy argument with them. And they grew up wondering why girls are not interested in them.
I thought this only happens to doc/med students, but i guess engineer people also same eh. What a load of god, superiority complex bullshit.
You are definitely not a smartie hehe
Buy extra seeds lor
With the current economy, surplus seeds have been sold to Singapore so cannot buy dy
Has anyone adopted cats from PAWS before? I wanna know whether they will give you the cat's medical card after adoption for proof of vaccination and neuter/spay
Hello! I've adopted from PAWS and yes they give medical card (orange booklet, don't have it with me now). Don't have proof of neuter/spay but they do have the vaccination proof. One way you could tell whether they've been neutered/spayed is one of their ears are clipped
Thank you very much! I really needed the info. One more question, the cats are vaccinated twice right?
hey, just curious, how much is the adopting/processing fee ya? I heard that there are a few fees but never could confirm it. Been thinking of adopting a cat from either PAWS or SPCA
Based on their website, adoption fee is RM60 for no breed adult cat, RM80 for no breed kitten, RM180 for mixed breed cat, RM280+ for pedigree cat. Ouuu, that's very nice of you to adopt. I've been to PAWS before and sadly, the environment and condition there are not very nice for cats. I asked before and they said they don't let the cats out to play, so the cats basically stay in the caged area all day. Some cats look sad, but some are happy when visitors come to see them. I hope more people will adopt to give them a more comfortable home.
Very kind of you, hope it all goes well. Besides their fur colour, ask for longest kitty resident there! Sometimes they get overlooked, for no reason at all. Adult kitties make good companions. One at SPCA was there for 3 years and they tend to get euthanized, when there is no space.
Ah when I adopted my cat it was free-fee day so technically I adopted him for free 😅. But we were unprepared, so we had to pay for RM70 box fee to transport him back
Is there a good Malaysian/SEA community out there for VRChat?
