    Been thinking about this since yesterday: food stall prices at bon odori are almost the same as, or even higher than donki’s prices. And the food quality is meh while some of them are really bad(sry Ipoh lang very high standards). Maybe next year I should propose to my friends that we each bring something that can be shared with each other like some katsu, okonomiyaki, takayoki etc. from donki and probably some pizza/sandwiches + drinks/dessert.

      Yeah, the price there is really jacked up probably due to the rental, and the food is okay okay only, but i like your idea of bringing your own stuff to picnic there 🙈

      Gotta make up for the free entry. So… bento next year? 😅

      The only things that are priced the same as outside were Tealive and their equivalents.

        Yeah most probably. I talked over it with one of my friends earlier to see what she thinks and she agreed cause we’re both Ipoh lang picky eaters. XD

        I was actually thinking of cooking maggi before departing yesterday LOL. The maggi would have tasted better than the takoyaki I bought T_T

    Is RM480 per month including water and electric for a studio room in Kapar good?

    • weecious@monyet.cc ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Not sure about the price there, but having an entire studio with the utilities included does sound good.

    Hi I’m creating a car community for people the enjoying the following noises:

    1. Brapppppp
    2. Stustustu
    3. Pshhhhhh

    , totally not because cars don’t fit under transport community considering the anti-car attitude there

    Car enthusiasts, what do you wish to see being discussed on the car community? I can think of the following:

    1. Car Memes
    2. Car Reviews and Discussion
    3. Car Purchase decisions?
    4. EV Discussion
    5. Car Mods and Restoration
    6. Owners Review?
    7. Personal opinion pieces?

    And also, non-car enthusiasts do you see yourself subscribing if you’re not interested in cars? If no, what can make you participate on a regular basis?

    Will also need volunteers to mod. Tho it should be easy given the traffic on monyet.cc is fairly low, will be even lower on a niche community.

      To be clear, !transport is not anti-car, it’s pro-public transport and cycling. To promote public transit, cycling, and other modes of transportation, I feel that de-emphasizing cars is unfortunately required.

      If I allow car talks like new models/make, mods etc. there those will dominate the discussions on the community, and reinforces the idea that you need to have a car to go anywhere, totally defeating the aforementioned goals.

      Plus, I think enthusiasts-specific discussions are better done on their own communities anyway, not just cars, but trains, motorcycles, bicycles, etc as well. Folks who are into those sorts of things are welcomed to create communities for those. :)

      Lastly, !transport allows posts on highways and traffic as it’s used by all, including people on public transport (e.g. city buses and intercity coaches).

      Hope this comment clarifies my position.

        sorry, I should have clarified myself - anti-car discussions* as in discussions about cars are forbidden and understandably so. I did mention that it is not suitable to host such content over there, people that are super passionate about public transport will not be the type of people that enjoy car ownership experience or even driving.

        By the way, does !transport allow news about ride sharing, or news about the e-hailing space in Malaysia in general, given how it’s a popular form of transportation?

      Yeah, my friends wanted to park at/near the stadium but we decided to park at the ktm station instead because there were already too many cars at the stadium lol.

    Damn annoyed, tried to clean the aircon filter but couldn’t put it back in. Apparently the cooling fins are bent upwards and they are protruding. I can take out but can’t put back in.

    Who tf design an aircon and literally only leave a few mm gap between the cooling fins and the air filter thingy??

    My room’s aircon is another brand (Mitsubishi) and the design is so much better.

    Headache from yesterday’s still lingering. MSG laden miso soup can’t fuck me up that bad, can it?

    I’m starting to think it’s the construction fumes I had to inhale on the way to the mall that did it.

      I can get headache too sometimes the next day when eating super salty food. So now I would always not eat if I feel that the food too salty.

    any car enthusiasts here? not one myself but you guys think ioniq 6 dead on arrival with its pricing versus the model y?

    source
    • dukeGR4@monyet.cc ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Ioniq 6 is also competing with German compact luxury segment, ie. 330i, C200 etc… most probably it’s DOA lol.

      source
      • imademo@monyet.cc ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        yea if i was in the market for an ev, as much as i like the ioniq 6 it just doesn’t make sense to get that when i could get the model y right? and this is despite tesla’s qc issues that i read about often. you mentioning it competes with the compact luxury segment also makes a lot of sense lol. how did they screw up the pricing this badly

    Someone described our relationship with the extremist right in this country as an abusive relationship.

    Considering everything the arts and LGBTQ communities have gone through post-MCO, I think about that a lot.
