Singapore. Mala has really taken off in the past several years. Every hawker centre, food court and mall will have one of such places.

Living in a place where renting is not the norm, what's this about 18 year olds coming to your home every 6 months?

Probably packing more into the same space. Battery capacities have been going up and that's weight. Phones are getting bigger too. A few mm here and there and it's an extra 30% in volume, which also translates to more mass.

Man, it has been a while, as I don't use the 9T as the daily phone now. I think I recall The Verge as one of the sites, because I wasn't expecting it from them. It happened only a few times, and it wasn't site-wide. Can't remember which pages triggered it though.

Haha, don't I know it. I've had to work with some of them in a past life. Messy and also very scary at how they underpin million dollar decisions.

WTF, seriously? VBA feels more like a scripting addon (which I suppose it is), not something to build wholesale CRITICAL programs with.

That's why the Linux crowd here I describe as evangelical. I'm going to say that even the vegans aren't as annoyingly zealous.

Well, not in everything, but mala-style food has really exploded here in the past 3-4 years, and very often when walking near any eatery I'll get a whiff of that! Imagine if everywhere smelled like fried chicken.

Yea, I forgot the name too, that's why I didn't name it. xD

People aren't putting content much on the open web as they used to as well. Think the high point was when blogs were a thing, the second high point was during the Geocities et all free webspace peroid.

Doesn't the recommendations require some history?

Though I feel that has peaked too, I think the recommendation engine was best around 2011 to 2015. It's kinda gone downhill since.

Thing is deciding on what to post and making the time to do so. xD

Did they forget that failed CCG that Valve was trying? Pretty sure that went into Mostly Negative for a bit too.

Eh, Fakespot has been decent enough for me. I think it works best when there are a lot of reviews, it's not very helpful when it's like 5-10 reviews on a product.

I think the issue is being privacy-minded but being on YouTube. But I guess there are different levels of privacy, one doesn't have to be at hermit-like levels. xD

For privacy-minded people, hardware switches are a nice thing. I remember when I had a Xiaomi Mi 9T with its popup camera, and it was interesting to see that some websites would trigger said popup camera. While the camera was never actually used, the thing would go up and down. This was even with an ad blocker installed.

How's the mala sensation on this? Just a bit? Szechuan peppercorns are everywhere here nowadays and I'm a little wary of it as a result. xD

Eh, if the food isn't falling off your plate when you eat it, that works.

No, I just want to use my time in other ways, thank you. You can call it lazy, but that's what it is. Windows 10 still works, the issues won't come till 2025, and regardless, Windows 11 issues are mostly personal preferences (I just want my task bar to work in a certain way).

This religious-like evangelising over Linux is such a turn off, regardless of whatever technical merits the OS might have. It's definitely not moving the needle for me, and it's turning me off the fediverse.

Article mentions the A750 for just $11 more, is that true or is that just a current special discount? A750 is not on sale where I am and I'm not clicking on affiliate links. xD
