    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 🙈

      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

    Urgh, don’t feel like waking up _(´ཀ`」 ∠)_

    Also damn i dropped my phone yesterday, the vibration motor isn’t working and i thought only that thing damaged, but last night wanna charge phone and i realised i can’t charge it as well. And the bottom speaker not working, and probably the mic as well. And the battery is bloated.

    What luck uhuk _(´ཀ`」 ∠)_

    edit: hmm, as i suspect, apparently when the phone battery bloated it ripped off and bend off the ribbon connector for the lower half of the phone, so i might have to have it fixed at the shop asap. how annoying

    edit2: after bending all the pin back and reconnected(except a few pin that broke off), i able to restore all the functionality of the bottom panel…except the usb port. of all the thing i can do without, it has to be the charging port…

            I think it’s really a chain of event that cause this so it might not applied to all the other phone in the line though. I left my phone on my car seat one time with direct sunlight, that might’ve cause the battery to bloated up and i didn’t realize it, which strain the ribbon’s connector. That drop is the final tug that pull the connector off i believe.

            Ahh, no, went to a shop to get it done. It only need battery and ribbon connector change. Rm180 for both including labour, even though the part is below rm100 but hey, they get thing done quick, can’t complain.

    Hi I’m creating a community for people that enjoy the following noises:

    1. Brapppppp
    2. Stustustu
    3. Pshhhhhh
    4. Brap Brap Brapp Brapp
    5. Duuuduuuduuduu

    yea they’re car sounds not farting sounds. Creating one, 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.

        Yeah that’s a good idea.

        Maybe you can try UK recon? Just make sure it’s an ND2 lol. ND1 2.0L is very half baked, really rushed when they developed it and only 6800rpm redline and a lot less power

        Also, if your concern is weight, and you really have struggle finding soft top, there’s always the option of changing to lighter forged wheels like TC105X, the unsprung mass shaved should be equivalent to the perceived savings of 40kg~ of sprung mass

      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). (EDIT: ride-sharing and e-hailing topics are also allowed.)

      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?

    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.

          Ioniq 5 would be a very good choice, reasonably priced. Better looking too and is an SUV which many people value

          Malaysians are very brand conscious most would probably still get Tesla tho at more or less the same price.

          Compact luxury segment at that price point are too good I have to say. Not cheap but if I had to spend 260k on a brand new car my money will go to the German ICEs. C Class and 3 series are tried and tested recipe after so many generations

              and if it’s just a toy add RM30k you can get recon 2020 GR Supra already lol, which in theory is the cheapest inline 6 car, german some more.

              heck even the 2020 M340i is like 310k… yeah you’re right it’s DoA lol.
