Hi everyone, I am researching why durable socks still fail after a few months. Heels thin out, toes get holes, elastic goes loose, whatever your sock experience is (gym, work, school, daily wear), I’d love your input. The survey takes about 4-5 minutes and is fully anonymous.

https://forms.gle/ARpr6ZjV78wjJhV76

If you’d rather not do the survey, a comment on which part of your socks dies first and what brand or type they were just as helpful. Thank you!

I will be honest, I do post this because I was butthurt how my previous post being removed by the mods.

Which I still didn't understand, since my previous post was about the effects Indonesia stock market crash might ripples to Malaysia. I do see it related heavily, even if it's speculative and what if. It's still about Malaysia.

So I took my time to read the rules... and I find it... Restricting? Are r/Singapore or r/Indonesia like this?

Well, what's your thoughts?

The titan triggerfish (Balistoides viridescens) aka jebong titan, is the largest species of triggerfish in Asia, growing up to 75 cm.

They are known to be aggressive, and some will attack divers with their powerful jaws and crushing teeth.

The yellowlip emperor (Lethrinus xanthochilus) aka ketambak, is an uncommon emperor species that grows to 70 cm.

It prefers seagrass beds, sandy and rubble areas and lagoons in shallow water. Eaten as food.

Tyto javanica, the Eastern barn owl, pungguk jelapang or serak biasa.

In Malaysia we have the T. j. javanica subspecies (Wallacean barn owl) which is native to the Malay Peninsula and the Greater Sunda Islands.

It usually inhabits agricultural fields, plantations and rural or urban edges.

In Malaysia they are utilised as pest control, with nest boxes being built to encourage them to move. In fact many were also translocated to Sabah and islands, as they are rare there.

Hi everyone!

I am looking to form a consistent, long-term men-only travel group of 5 to 6 core members aged 50 and above who are ready to commit to traveling together regularly. The vision is to build a reliable circle of brothers who head out to a new destination 3 to 4 times a year (roughly once every quarter).

Right now, I am looking for guys to formally commit to being group members so we can bond, plan our annual calendar ahead, and lock in affordable flights together.

To keep things manageable, routine, and easy to fit into everyone's schedules, our trips will always be short getaways: 4 days and 3 nights, always departing on a Wednesday and returning on a Saturday.

The Group Blueprint:

Demographic: Men only, aged 50+.

Base City: Kuala Lumpur (All departures from KLIA/KLIA2).

Group Size: 5–6 members total (for easy logistics and a close-knit vibe).

Frequency: 3 to 4 trips a year.

Duration: 4 Days / 3 Nights (Wednesday to Saturday).

Destinations: Around Southeast Asia, China, India, and Sri Lanka.

Travel Style: Not luxury. Comfortably budget-conscious on a strict cost-sharing basis (splitting accommodation, transport, and group meals evenly).

This group is for you if you genuinely want to travel a few times a year, value straightforward cost-sharing, and want a steady, relaxed pool of male travel friends without the hassle of constantly hunting for new buddies. We will plan our destinations together as a team based on group consensus and budget-friendly flights.

If you are a gent over 50, based in KL, and ready to commit to a regular travel circle 3–4 times a year, please comment below or send me a DM!

Reported to DBKL. Illegal slums between new housing on Jalan Lima, Desa Pahlawan and Jalan Kedondong

For me sometimes I feel like after a work day, I just want to go home and lie down on bed. Sometimes I don't even get dinner, eventhough I'm hungry.

For context, im a 26M who just started getting his life together. I'm still struggling of course, but i really want to build up my life again.

I know I should be having a hobby after work or at least do some productive thing like reading, but I don't feel like doing anything at all. Maybe I feel sad too, because both my parents have left, and im a only child who's recovering from my previous nerve injury in my legs causing me to not be able to walk properly, so I need to use a Tongkat. So because of that I lost my previous job, which was a few months back.

Could this be depression? Does anyone ever feel like this?

hii so long story short i have my current pc which i bought 6 years ago during the height of covid and it has been a blast for me since it was my first pc ever. ill jot down the specs as follows:

GPU -GALAX GEFORCE RTX2060 SUPER GAMER (1 CLICK OC) 8GB GDDR6

so i have been playing games like overwatch, the sims, tf2, stardew, league and valo with ease but recently i bought a bunch of AAA games as i really love stories like hogwarts legacy, cyberpunk and rdr2 however i do frequent lots of stuttering, stuff not loaded in the map and especially terrible loading wait times like eg. it takes me 5 minutes to launch hogwarts legacy everytime i want to play it & i attempted to play marvel rivals but i just cant get more than 30 ish fps in matches so i just die constantly😭

with that being said, i am trying to venture out in playing more games but i feel like my current pc is holding that back tremendously and i would like the input of others in this matter. ive also been doing some window shopping on prebult gaming pcs and found that idealtechpc has something within my budget. ive tried shopping for components individually but the prices ive seen so far were absurd while the ones priced decently were out of stock so prebuilt might be the move here

thanks!

Trigonopoma gracile, seluang badar/pinyih or the graceful rasbora.

It is a small (6 cm) but very skinny fish that is found on the peninsula and Sarawak. There are records from Johor, Selangor and Terengganu.
However it has become extinct in Singapore.

It inhabits acidic swamp forests with slow-flowing habitats. Usually schooling in large numbers, even hundreds!

The usual form is yellow-striped, but some come in red like the one in post. It depends on location and environment. They are a peaceful community fish that can be kept in aquariums with other small species.

How true is that statement? Ig I just want reassurance that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I'm 25 year old man.

5 years ago, I accept that I am not going to have friends and that is alright. Then, somehow I made a lifelong friend from reddit while talking about a random political issue.

Earlier this year, I accept that I might not be able to date anyone and be okay with living life alone. Then, I met my ex. Even if it didn't worked out, atleast I'm able to experience love.

But I also met people who go about their whole life and not being able to make friends or relationships. What terrifies me is if I don't proactively look for "jodoh", I'm shooting myself in the foot but the general consensus of most people is to just wait and it will happen.

I just wanna know you guys story with jodoh and how true is it to just wait for it.

Hi all,

I'll be moving to Europe for work and would appreciate some practical advice on preparing for it.

I'm mainly looking for advice on things to sort out before moving. Things like banking, EPF, investments, annoying admin stuff, etc, that might not even cross someone's mind until they're actually there, and then aduhhh D:

Pretty sure there will be some aduhhh moments, but any advice would be very much welcomed

Thanks~~~~

I just moved in to taiping perak, whats the fun around here✌️👀✌️

I checked older posts and a lot of people suggested Bena Expectorant, but I cannot find it on any store front online now. Instead they keep suggesting other types of the Xena brand like mucolix something. Are they good? Or do you have any other suggestions?

We're currently taking Nim Jiom Pei Pa Koa and it has helped a lot in relieving a lot of symptoms but dry cough is still existing. Been more than 2 days now.

Getting really frustrated with Maxis. I work from home fully so reliable internet is really important.

With Maxis, I have gotten random outages with no notice including one time for 2 days straight (required several calls just to get it back up). Went into the maxis shop one time for a different issue and glanced at the computer & noticed that they had put me back on contract after years of me being off contract without any notice. I hadn't upgraded or anything (according to them it was an accident because of a technical error but how TF does that even happen).

TLDR:

I'm sick of Maxis and really considering swapping my fiber provider but I'm worried the other ones will be equally garbage tbh. TIME is unfortunately not available for my area.

Any suggestions/experience with other service providers? Good or bad I'd love to hear about it so I know who to avoid also 😂

Hey everyone! I’m planning to move to Kuala Lumpur as an international student, and I’ll be 17 when I arrive.
I’ve been to nightclubs in Baku, Azerbaijan, and I’m curious about the nightlife scene in KL. Are there clubs that allow 17-year-olds to enter, or is the minimum age generally 18 or 21? Does it depend on the venue? If u know that suggest me some.
I’d appreciate any information from people familiar with KL’s nightlife. Thanks!

Hi, as stated in the heading, I wish to change my name middle and last name. Would I be able to both all together?

I've read you need to take an oath but I couldn't find anything on changing two names would I need to repeat the process twice?

Long story short my dad decided to give me ultra Christian names (a combination of two religious figures) but since I was a kid I received absolute traumatic religious trauma, such as almost getting k worded and paralyzed then almost r worded as a 10 year old, just to mention a few, all at the Sunday school I was forced to attend for 5 years twice a week. I grew up hating that part of my name and my family name bc of my dad letting it all happen to me. So yeah! I was wondering if anyone had any experience in legally changing their middle and last names. I wish to change it to something more less religious.

Korang prefer yang mana? Dan kenapa korang pilih yang tu?

Gaji RM4-5k, kerja almost everyday habis malam 7-10 malam (eventho working hour sampai pukul 6 pm je), cuti 2 hari, rehat 1 jam 30 minit (kerja di bandar)

Gaji RM3k, kerja mostly habis on time 6 pm, cuti 1 hari setengah, rehat 1 jam (kerja di luar bandar)

Anyone bought from them before? Is it legit?

Thanks
