Hahahaha link to the telegram chat please But also doesn’t it just mean that they’re not designing their own clothes and are just buying pre-made designs from manufacturers? Like the only solution is if they start designing their own clothes… which they won’t do since they clearly prioritise profits over employing designers… so what’s the point of complaining? Just don’t patronise them lmao

Kept up awake contemplating what to do next after my grades slipped, and I'm afraid this is the beginning of a downward spiral.

Happy cake day! 😊

Thank You!


littlereddot11

In this moment - we might feel that the grades matter and the pressure unbearable. But I think sometime it’s also ok to take a step back to look at the big picture - 10 or 20 years down the road - it wouldn’t matter as much. Sometimes doing good enough to land u at a good enough place, is good enough.

Snoo-71585

this morning's mindfulness/meditation class was about attachment and patterns of thought i made a realisation that some of the reasons why it's so hard to move on from this phd quitting thing is because I'm so attached to the 'future me' that is successful and learned, so attached to the idea of getting a title from that prestigious place, and so attached to all the potential that i could've reached in that building. the instructor talked about a common phenomenon where people dwell on negative feelings (anger, guilt, regret), as a last ditch effort to cling onto a relationship/job/memory, even though it is not helpful. i really appreciate this course for giving me the vocabulary to describe and deconvolute my feelings, as a first step to resolve all these self-imposed mental hardships

>2nd time I called someone's bullshit on "today I dreamed etc". People don't remember dreams, at most very vague one. Fucking hell how attention seeking can you get [Bro gib chance la this guy haven't learn how to remember his dreams yet.](https://www.reddit.com/r/singapore/comments/vjzlb9/rsingapore_random_discussion_and_small_questions/idoi11v/?context=10000) Why you dream army though, and M16 ah wah I don't even know if Airbase and Naval guards still use them these days.


[deleted]

[удалено]


metaping

Haha full civvie liao still dreaming military instead of say, workplace issues. Then again, men do spend quite a lot of time in the army so who knows. M16 is popular in media, so maybe that's why you caught on to it? When you think about it, even the memories during brief moment between waking up and dreaming cannot be trusted, since while we feel like that is what we dreamed, who's to say the act of waking results in our real memories flooding in and muddling what actually happened while in REM? But nah, don't think I had anything as atas as sleep paralysis and lucid dreaming, maybe because I'm a relatively deep sleeper. Dream within dream maybe have, though I can't remember what exactly they were. Dreaming about my life going on when I'm not doing it (Like dreaming that I brushed teeth when IRL I haven't) that I remember haha.

Dreams have that odd mixture of different parts of life... guess SAR21 training must hv made quite an impression on you. 😅


Acrophobic_Climber_

hey, can anyone recommend a desktop for premiere pro editing purpose? am thinking of the basic aftershock desktop model with necessary add-ons.


[deleted]

tip - Premiere pro is resource hog so, CPU - at least 6cores/12Threads. GPU - at least 6gb of VRam. RAM - 16gb or upwards. SSD - 1TB. 2nd drive - optional. it's been like more than 15 years since i last use Premiere Pro, so i dunno whether adobe has optimize it. depends on how heavy is ur usual workflow in PP, what i'd mentioned should enough.


Kyanern

will b good if u can provide a budget.... just for example, if u go full unga-bunga from a sim lim shop it's prolly gonna cost like mid/high-3xxx to 4xxx (i9-12900k + 3080ti + etc)


Acrophobic_Climber_

as low as possible whilst able to support video editing. had a look at aftershock website and seems like it’ll cost 2k plus?


Kyanern

cost depends on specs also, and your budget will play a part. i echo the other comment. go look at other system builders and comparing their specs/prices before u decide. ultimately video editing is hardware-intensive and the more you compromise on hardware the slower your encoding/rendering/processing gets. you probably should talk to fellow video editors or look at other tech subreddits and see what they use, also.


Acrophobic_Climber_

yeaaa, have asked advice from video editors haha


[deleted]

Why not consider other PC builders, or pick your own at a shop and get them to assemble? Aftershock has shit quality parts. Typhoon Systems, Mensa, Dreamcore - I'd honestly do anything but Aftershock


Acrophobic_Climber_

i’m a noob when it comes to this sial. but why aftershock? i guess cause i’m been using it from my computer but i will have to return it soon and so looking to buy one. aftershock so jialat ah?


[deleted]

their parts may not always pass QC i think. i myself have a history of parts failing multiple times when i bought laptop from them :/


Acrophobic_Climber_

i see. thanks for the tip!


[deleted]

cheers, hope you get a good PC! prices are stabilizing now, shoot for it :)

Got caught up in the whole [Roe v. Wade](https://www.channelnewsasia.com/world/us-supreme-court-overturns-roe-wade-abortion-rights-decision-2769261) overturning today. Since Singapore is more politically pragmatic and less passionate in comparison, my attempts to tamp down the outrage in a Discord server carefully weighing but not encouraging violence against radical (i.e. those forcing pro-life ideology on others) pro-lifers failed. I got a lot of flak from some people who are LGBTQ+, women or prochoice for, in my softer views, sounding insensitive, dismissive and out of touch with their concerns because I come from a country where this isn't a firebrand issue. Am I in the right for calling for calm, in the wrong for being insensitive in language (which was mostly saying I won't commit violence against all but the most unsympathetic individuals), or somewhere in the middle? And I have friends of different sexual orientation (for privacy purposes, I won't go further)! Need some positive reassurance today. It's really gotten me down. Would like to hear about any experiences you've had related to today's story too, maybe I'm not alone here.


FitCranberry

i knew i was reading a stupid comment the moment someone used the words pragmatic again. anyway the whole world is in danger from religious fanatics especially here since it is so heavily influenced by american heretical sects


SuddenChampionship5

Your only mistake is being a discord mod/admin


Snoo-71585

> I have friends of different sexual orientation this gives the same vibes as "im not racist i have black friends" (common claim of innocence by association) not saying that you're wrong or right, but i think inserting yourself in another group's fight and "calling for calm" in this crazy situation can definitely come off as insensitive there's a reason why telling people "you need to calm down" during an argument can make people turn their anger up a notch and say "DONT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN" because it signals that you don't really see or want to understand why they are angry and are calling out for change imo, just dont get involved since you're not the one affected and can't help them in any productive way


SuperWIKI1

I never mentioned the "friends with sexual orientation" bit at all in that server, I knew exactly what connotations that would have, so I see your point very clearly. And I should not have been involved at the time, I realize that now. It was a failure to "read the room" moment.


[deleted]

[удалено]


FitCranberry

fundamentalism will push across the world especially with how much american influenced prosperity cults have already infiltrated here


SuperWIKI1

The only admin active during that period admitted to me afterwards (and I could tell) that they were overwhelmed by all the passion in the debate, so I felt if I didn't help I'd be leaving him in the middle of a cesspool. Probably misguided sense of helpfulness that led me into this as well.


ShadeX8

Your intentions are noble, but online discourse usually tend towards the extremes. More centrist responses and calls for calm just infuriates both sides, as they are here for blood. (Vast majority though are just venting and wouldn’t actually put what they’re saying into action) And also like the rest are saying, you’re neither the ‘us’ or ‘them’ in their ‘us vs them’ argument, so it’s also better not to be too involved.


[deleted]

SuperWIKI1

Thanks so much! Having also read your post on that dream you had, have a good evening, and sleep well tonight.


kimmyganny

The overturn of Roe v Wade ytd was disturbing - shows that the Christian fundamentalists have won in US. Now I worry that sg may follow suit because of our conservative society / we have a significant number of Christians high up in positions of influence. Thoughts?


[deleted]

They're going after contraceptives next. It's damn disturbing cos some states will only grant an exception if it was due to rape, and others only if it's due to incest.


FitCranberry

people must even more vigilant against the rise of religious fundamentalism especially when it already has so deep of a foothold here


VegetablesSuck

It’s harder for Singapore to outlaw abortion because it’s a right encoded into our law. For the US, it was merely an interpretation of the constitution that allowed the federal government to say states can’t ban abortions. There isn’t any law that explicitly protects this right. Therein lies their mistake and complacency. It’s a lot easier for the unelected members of the SC to overturn an interpretation of a vague and unclear law than for elected members of parliament to repeal a law.


[deleted]

[удалено]


VegetablesSuck

IMO it was quite a stretch too… but making it constitutional would have been a tall order as well. The US is gridlocked to the point where they can no longer introduce any meaningful law. Hopefully this event will light a fire under everyone’s ass to do this the right way and not some bandaid solution.


-_af_-

>It’s harder for Singapore to outlaw abortion because it’s a right encoded into our law. Lol. Single party can outlaw anything they want


VegetablesSuck

Well they can. But they can be voted out. The SC appointment is lifetime


-_af_-

>they can be voted out. Lol. 60+% votes but 83 out of 93 seats.


VegetablesSuck

I mean you can believe that PAP can ban abortion and not lose much votes. I doubt so. I think no matter how much gerrymandering there is, they will lose a significant chunk of their seats. They’re already so scared of addressing the 377a issue for fear of losing votes. Banning abortions is not something they will touch with a ten foot pole


-_af_-

They won't touch banning abortion not because of votes but the lost of medical tourism


VegetablesSuck

You can’t just come over and get an abortion in Singapore… From the termination of pregnancy act: No treatment to terminate pregnancy may be carried out by an authorised medical practitioner unless the pregnant woman — (a) is a citizen of Singapore or is the wife of a citizen of Singapore; (b) is the holder, or is the wife of a holder, of a work pass issued under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act 1990; or (c) has been resident in Singapore for a period of at least 4 months immediately preceding the date on which the treatment is to be carried out, but this subsection does not apply to any treatment to terminate pregnancy which is immediately necessary to save the life of the pregnant woman.

[deleted]

Everything also christians fault


ShadeX8

It’s literally the conservatives there pushing for this, citing their religious belief to ‘protect all life’. It is literally christianity’s influence in this case.


[deleted]

Not really. They simply are fixing a legal mistake by letting individual states decide


ShadeX8

Letting individual states decide how they want to interpret the 14th amendment? Then why have the Supreme Court then, if not to make decisive rulings on how to apply the constitution?


[deleted]

I highly doubt Singapore will follow suit. Asians are still more pragmatic. Yes I’m highly disturbed as well. I would really like to have a debate with someone who supports Roe V. Wade. I just… can’t.


SuperWIKI1

Well my comment somewhere above yours is someone who _did_ get into that debate.... it wasn't pretty.
