Going to on holiday, for the first time in 20 years. Dumb-sounding question: Do you need cash on a daily basis (fares, food etc)?

If not, is credit cards fine, or is there some other payment system that's better - and accessible to non-residents?

driftwoodmalaysian,

@jannem carry some cash wherever you go. most established places will already use ewallets like touch n go and grabpay.

Ah, elections. Every time each one hits I am reminded how despite two centuries of my family living here, me being is not celebrated by some.
Also, have to contend with bouts of anxiety at the thought of the govt swinging far right each time.
It is like going through 2016 US elections each time. Or maybe the 2021 one.
But worse. 🤢

driftwoodmalaysian,

@liztai i deal by making it a point to be nation-independent. don't tie oneself to a "country" (which is nowadays just another term for people-farm). just hold enough currency and have a bag ready to leave at any notice.

Fuel Fiasco: Singaporeans start fight when caught trying to fill barrels with petrol in Malaysia (malaysia.news.yahoo.com)

Singaporeans have earned a reputation for demonstrating specific behaviors when it comes to refueling their vehicles in Malaysia, primarily due to the disparity in prices between the two countries. For instance, a pair of individuals hailing from the Lion City was confronted at a petrol station in Johor Bahru last night after...

@EgyptianAphorist gorgeous!

driftwoodmalaysian,

i'd really like one of those classic giant sized fruit juices... no ice, no sugar and actual real fruit instead of pre-sweetened fruits. just pure juice and fibre.

driftwoodmalaysian,

are you using an app? try ctrl-shift-V , the shift is usually the norm for pasting as is these days.

driftwoodmalaysian,

well it makes him look like he's actively fighting for his demographic and probably there's a concentrated effort on their part to try and stall certain discussions in the house.

Me and grandma. "Mama" was always elegantly dressed - usually in a baju Nyonya. She even looked elegant when she just wore a sarong around the house, with a handkerchief tucked at her bosom.

driftwoodmalaysian,

@liztai woahh love the dresses and that confidence! agree on the frowning at the squishing!

driftwoodmalaysian,

Ooh, i've found another issue.. it doesn't inform me on what i've upvoted or not.. so sometimes i end up removing my upvote. A lill annoying but i'm guessing that will get fixed some time later.

Also anyone know what's the diff between the upvote and boost?

driftwoodmalaysian,

yeah weird. i tried boosting you and now i get an error page.

edit: now that i think about it, the structure reminds me of the old slashdot, kuro5hin era way of thinking where 'threads' were articles, and boosts were people upvoting the poster of that article, you could upvote articles too to show your support as a form of favoriting. reddit appeared on the scene and switched that around a bit.

driftwoodmalaysian,

yeah. i notice a slight productivity boost now that there's less content. or the idea that there's less content to look for.

So is microblog like the daily thread without being called a daily thread?

driftwoodmalaysian,

@androfire is federated just another way of saying integrated? trying to wrap my head around this haha

driftwoodmalaysian,

@cendawanita

@androfire

thanks for the explanation... i guess in layperson terms this should be some kinda... cross-database sort of architecture hence we can prob fetch content from different hosts and see one another. interesting naming convention.

driftwoodmalaysian,

noooo what is this anti-taugehcity over here. please.. we must all stay firm in the spirit of taugehtherness! go with in the name of the bean, brothers and sisters, and may it sprout happiness in the stem of your days!
