  1. To those that do MMA, how do I verify if an instructor is legit? And what I can expect to learn from the class?
  2. This is a weird place to ask about this, but I'm interested in picking up martial arts. I have learnt about avoiding McDojos etc but I'm in a dilemma of choosing which one. ITF Tae-Kwon-Do: I was trained in WTF Tae-Kwan-Do when I was 7 and I reached Taegeuk 5 at the age of 10 (10 years ago). I had to stop practice it due to excessive homework (A very common scene in Asia). MMA at that time was completely unheard of to my parents. This is one of my choices because it is what I'm most familiar with and unfinished dream? (For those who don't know about it: I was 4 sections away from the 1st Dan, except that I will remain at Taegeuk 8 until 18). MMA: There's all the rage about MMA and it is easy to understand why. It's applicable to almost everywhere, however, there is almost no way to verify if the instructor is legit. The big names (Evolve MMA School) also have very hefty fees. Jeet Kune Do: It's pretty much the same as MMA, but the only problem is that the amount of school is very limited and travelling to the school is very difficult. My main goal of learning martial arts is for self-defense. Hope there are actually martial arts practitioners here, do hop in and discuss!
  3. Remember before 2010 where each brand of phones have different types of charging port and charger? I heard EU was responsible in unifying them into the Micro USB standard we have today.
  4. While I like the fact that Asrock is being an ass to Intel, but I'm kinda worried that Intel would not allow Asrock to make any board when their next gen releases.
  5. I had a choice between GTX 780 and a R9 290 (during the Bitcoin mining craze, stocks were heavily affected, not the price), if only I waited another week for the R9 290...
  6. Unfortunately, it won't be able to capture drones that are capable of flying much higher. MOAR research need to be done in countering drones.
  7. The fact that they had to program it to be more human like and it took so long for this to happen, I really look forward of the self-driving car due to how safe it is.
  8. Don't worry, there are probably thousands of neckbeards working on this now. #opensource
  9. Wait, there is DLC??? I only tried a few times in the beta and went back to CSGO right afterwards. This game has so much potential to compete, the idea is right, just when I thought there is finally something that can compete with CS and there is DLC.
  10. Which part of the game you are being let down? I feel Siege has the right idea/direction for a competitive shooter if they fix the netcode and hitboxes.
  11. Valve don't have office in my country. The only game devs here are Ubisoft and EA, the rest are mobile game devs. I would strongly prefer Bethesda or Square Enix though.
  12. WHAT. THE. FUCK? I started to feel ashamed to have considered Ubisoft for internship, I have no choice but to go EA then.
  13. XiaoMi power bank sure is cheap and has big capacity, but their quality is shit. My friends and I have quite a few of them broke in less than 6 months. I went with the PowerAdd Pilot S for better quality now. If you are buying XiaoMi's power bank please remember that you are trading quality with cost effectiveness. If you want something that is cheap and very effective, this is the best you can get. If you want something that can lasts longer, this is not the thing you want.
  14. I know someone that has direct connection to Timbuk2, just to ask do you have any experience with Timbuk2 products? I'm quite worried that the straps will break in less than 6 months. Life...
  15. It sounds really ridiculous.... Is there any other alternatives?
  16. My laptop is heavy (2.5-3kg) and I have a pretty big power brick for it. Also, I carry one more laptop (for delivery) at times, so the ability to carry extra weight will be good. I have quite some books for school too.
  17. Yeah, I'm sick and tired of uncomfortable and bad quality bag. Do let me know if there is a very good one for less than $100.
  18. The title says it. I'm looking for a backpack that is very durable. I have considered to buy the Chrome Citadel off from Tek Syndicate store but the shipping to Singapore has blown my budget too much. And for some reason, Amazon does not ship it to Singapore. My requirements is that the bag must be big enough to hold a 17 inch laptop + a massive power brick along with books, power bank, a tall 750ml water bottle and a mouse. My daily load is about 8-10kg, my current and previous backpack are freebies from laptop purchases and they keep suffering the same fate of broken strap probably due to weight. I also prefer to have a chest strap if possible. Thanks in advance.
  19. I hope we won't go back to the era where nearly all gaming mice are laser. Too many people I know suffered because their laser mice (from Razer, Steelseries and Logitech) broke and they have a lot of trouble finding replacement or adapting to optical.
  20. Edge is very good, albeit Chrome's ecosystem + Firefox's add ons and other functions made it an inferior browser, Microsoft needs change something to even compete with the two.
  21. I just don't get the hype of surface line up, can someone enlight me on why Surface is so popular?
