      Not as bad as my preganant brain. Was checking in to my hotel in Kelantan yesterday. Someone came and tegur me, looks super familiar, but I cannot put my finger on who this is. My brain immediately assumed, must be company staff who works in Kelantan, who I must have met back in January at our company retreat! Ofc I don’t remember him, I met so many people there from all over Malaysia. I can be excused.

      Turns out he’s one of our vendors that I actually worked directly with only in July. Severely apologized after, but aiyah so embarrassing

    Researching for !my_history@monyet.cc, I have histories of places I have in mind but there’s barely any articles online that focuses on the history. my choices are either travelogs or primary sources - chapters of books from British orientalists written 100 years ago.

    Can’t post a picture of skewered lambs without some vegans inviting themselves over with their preaching 🙄

    White people are too free.

        That was quick, thank you! These people are so privileged they can’t see beyond their assholes.

          I invoked rule 3 2, not 3.

          My personal interpretation is in the lines of “don’t get in an argument between a malaysian and their food.”

                  it’s really funny when people don’t realize the way reports go through in a decentralized, federated ecosystem. it doesn’t go through a central place where one set of rules (usually anglo- or euro-centric) applies to all.

                  even funnier is when the posts being reported are from a single person instance – the reports go to the person being reported! 🤣

    Just bought a replacement for my seven year old laptop, it serve me well but getting too old to continue for my current needs. Hopefully the new laptop will serve me as well.

    How are you guys? Now thinking to grab a brunch soon.

              It is beautiful! They’re the AMD equivalent of Carbon X1 Extreme(Intel only), the ones with discrete GPU. Was offered a real good deal, else would probably stay in the T series. The limited ports/ram/less than ideal touchpad are not doing it any favour, but I’m no Thinkpad purist(God bless the T480). God dang it, it’s premium!

                  Oya, I meant that the Carbon is Intel’s design only, the AMD equivalent is Z series. It’s like those Zenbook Duo(dual screen, one on keyboard) is Intel only design.

    For god’s sake. My friend/housemate. Good guy. Probably the first rich good person I’m close with But you can’t lend anything to this guy. He just forgets about it and lost it . And now I have to live through the whole semester break without my powerbank.

      And that’s a valuable lesson that you’re lucky to have encountered so early. These kind of rich ppl? They are also assholes. They’re so cincai because they never have to worry, but also because they know, even if they can’t articulate it, adat/politeness means ppl are unlikely to ever demand something like this, because malu/segan. Always ask back for what you’re due - he’s probably going to kutuk you (in that careless cincai rich guy way and he probably “didn’t mean it that way”) behind your back, but fuck that shit, and fuck that man.

          Takpe, you jalan2 together, oh kebetulan lalu kedai IT, oh kebetulan u pun tanya, eh mana powerbank I? Oh, tak jumpa lagi? Nvm lah, can you pay for this powerbank first? Later you find back my old one, I give you this one.

          /muka tembok strategy but dia yg buat2 tak tahu first

          (You will discover pretty soon this is how rich and pretend-rich ppl score freebies)
