  1. Lovely Tight Build. Small footprint and completely silent. With only the CPU fan, this noctua is barely audible running at max rpm. Build took over a month sourcing cheapest parts all over the net. Went SLS but it can no longer win online prices. Minor hiccup in the build process was the stock BIOS not booting 5600G. Had to tear out everything , bring it to shop and update. Never skipped a beat since then. CPU runs hot at 38°-55° idle/low load, and hits 95° on Prime95 test. Apparently it is by design, but will monitor and reseat cooler in a few months if necessary.

  3. SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - A rare five-room Housing and Development Board (HDB) loft unit at SkyTerrace @ Dawson has been sold for $1.328 million. The price translates to $1,011 psf on the floor area. The Option to Purchase (OTP) was exercised on Nov 22 and the sellers were represented by Lois Ho, associate group director of PropNex Realty. Read also: Dawson HDB flats cross million-dollar threshold soon after MOP The sale of the 1,313 sq ft, duplex HDB unit is the most expensive resale flat sold so far this year, based on HDB resale caveats as of Nov 29. It also marks the most expensive resale flat that has ever been sold at SkyTerrace @ Dawson and neighbouring SkyVille @ Dawson. The HDB loft unit is at Block 92 Dawson Road and occupies the 42nd and 43rd floors. According to Ho, there are only 26 such loft units available in SkyTerrace @ Dawson, making them a rare type of unit in the 758-unit development. PropNex agent Lois Ho in the living room of the HDB loft unit she sold. (Picture: Lois Ho/PropNex Realty) “This is an uncommon unit type that is rarely included in recent HDB projects. Some interested buyers even wondered if the sellers had configured the layout by themselves. Loft units are typically found in private condos and this particular HDB unit boasts an impressively high 5.4m ceiling height,” says Ho. (Find HDB flats for rent or sale with our Singapore HDB directory) The unit also benefits from its high floor position which provides an unblocked view of the landed housing estates in nearby Tanglin. The flat features two bedrooms on the lower floor and a bedroom on the upper floor. According to Ho, the sellers decided to put up the unit for sale in the first quarter of this year, but the fluctuating Covid situation made it difficult to actively market the property. Ho also felt that it was important to arrange physical viewings for serious buyers. “For a unique property such as this HDB loft unit, it is necessary for buyers to experience the space and the rare layout. I felt that factors such as the serenity of the unit and the impressive view were critical features those serious buyers needed to experience first-hand,” she says. She adds that this helps buyers understand why they should be prepared to pay a high premium for this unit compared to other five-room flats in the development. The bedroom on the upper floor of the unit which features a 5.4m ceiling. (Picture: Lois Ho/PropNex Realty) By mid-October, she and the sellers felt that the Covid situation in Singapore had stabilised enough to start scheduling physical viewings. Ho says that she received an overwhelming amount of interest for the HDB flat. Interest was so great that she was unable to schedule enough viewings to meet the number of viewing requests she received. She says that the buyer of this loft unit submitted multiple offers to purchase the property. “The buyer was wowed by the double volume space and spacious living room when they came to visit the flat”. The initial offers did not cross the $1.3 million price threshold as only two other low-floor loft units had been transacted before at SkyTerrace @ Dawson. The most recent was another 1,313 sq ft unit in the same block that fetched $1.095 million ($834 psf) on June 23 this year. “Eventually, a firm belief in the value of the property and the physical viewings paid off because the sellers accepted the $1.328 million offer. The transaction was also a nice birthday gift for the seller’s wife, and in Cantonese, the digits of the price translate to ‘Easy to prosper throughout life,” says Ho. Many of the serious buyers were aware that they would be paying a premium for the unit, given the property’s outstanding attributes such as its central location, spacious size, penthouse lifestyle and rarity, says Ho. The view of the Tanglin landed housing areas from the top of SkyVille @ Dawson. (Picture: Albert Chua/The Edge Singapore) While the actual Cash Over Valuation (COV) paid by the buyer is confidential, the amount is likely around $100,000, says Ho. COV represents the difference between the resale price of an HDB flat and the actual valuation by HDB. The sale of this five-room loft will likely spur some sellers at SkyTerrace @ Dawson and SkyVille @ Dawson to increase their price, however, there are very few five-room units in these developments that are up for sale. Most of the units from these two developments that are on the resale market are four-room units,” says Ho.

  10. SINGAPORE - Two imported Covid-19 cases have preliminarily tested positive for the Omicron variant on Thursday (Dec 2), the Ministry of Health (MOH) said. Both cases were isolated upon arrival in Singapore on Wednesday, and had not interacted in the community. "There is currently no evidence of any community transmission from these cases," said MOH in a statement on Thursday. The ministry added that both cases are currently recovering in isolation wards at the National Centre for Infectious Diseases. They are fully vaccinated, and have mild symptoms of cough and scratchy throat. Both cases arrived from Johannesburg on board Singapore Airlines flight SQ479 on Wednesday. The first case is a 44-year-old Singapore permanent resident who was travelling from Mozambique and transited in Johannesburg. He had tested negative for Covid-19 in his pre-departure test in Mozambique on Nov 29. The second case is a 41-year-old Singaporean woman who travelled from South Africa. She had tested negative for Covid-19 in her pre-departure test in Johannesburg on Nov 29. “They had undergone a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test upon arrival in Singapore and were immediately conveyed to a Stay-Home Notice (SHN) dedicated facility to be isolated while awaiting their test results,” said MOH. Their PCR test results revealed the presence of S-gene Target Failure, which may be associated with the Omicron variant, the ministry added. MOH said the National Public Health Laboratory is conducting whole genome sequencing to confirm if the two cases had indeed contracted the Omicron variant. The remaining 19 passengers on the same flight have tested negative for Covid-19, said MOH, adding that contact tracing is ongoing. All 19 were quarantined at designated facilities upon arrival and did a PCR test. They will have to do another PCR test when their 10-day SHN is over. Other close contacts will also be placed on 10-day quarantine and undergo PCR tests at the start and end of their quarantine, said MOH. “All patients suspected or confirmed to be infected with the Omicron variant will be sent to NCID for isolation and clinical management. Home recovery will not apply,” the ministry added. https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/health/2-imported-covid-19-cases-in-spore-test-preliminarily-positive-for-omicron-variant

  12. SINGAPORE - Some 70,000 people who took two Sinovac or Sinopharm jabs have till Dec 31 to get their third dose in order to keep their fully vaccinated status from Jan 1, while the grace period for children turning 13 next year to get fully vaccinated has been extended by two months to March 1. The Ministry of Health (MOH) on Thursday (Dec 2) said reminder SMSes have been sent to persons who had taken their second dose of the Sinovac-CoronaVac or Sinopharm vaccines three months ago. They have to get their third dose before Dec 31, or their vaccination status will revert to "vaccination in progress" from Jan 1 next year. This means that they will be subject to vaccination-differentiated safe management measures (VDS) that restricts them from going to shopping malls or libraries. MOH "strongly encouraged" this group to opt for an mRNA vaccine - such as the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccine - for their third dose, unless they are medically ineligible to do so. Otherwise, they should get a third dose of the same vaccine - Sinovac or Sinopharm - they received for the first two doses. The ministry added that those who had an allergic reaction to the first dose of an mRNA vaccine and opted for Sinovac for their second dose should continue with Sinovac for the third dose. This third dose of Sinovac must be taken 28 days after their second dose for them to maintain their fully vaccinated status. Details on the requirements for those who received mixed vaccine combinations, or recovered individuals who took Sinovac or Sinopharm vaccines, can be found at this website. MOH also announced a grace period for children born in 2009 to get vaccinated. VDS will apply to children turning 13 next year. For them, the concession to do a pre-event test in lieu of being fully vaccinated will be extended from Jan 1 next year to March 1. MOH had previously said the option for unvaccinated individuals to do pre-event testing to enter settings or participate in activities where VDS applies will be removed at the start of next year. The ministry said the two-month extension is to give the children sufficient time to get their full series of jabs.

  20. SINGAPORE - Most owners of Housing Board flats can expect to pay more in property taxes next year, as the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (Iras) will be revising the annual value (AV) of HDB flats in line with increase in market rentals. Iras said in a statement on Wednesday (Dec 1) that the AV will be revised upwards by 4 per cent to 6 per cent, with effect from January next year, and that this is part of its annual review of properties to compute the property tax payable. With the revision in AV, all one-room and two-room flat owner-occupiers will continue to pay no property tax. This will also be the case for 35 per cent of three-room flat owner-occupiers, while 65 per cent of three-room flat owner-occupiers will each pay between $8 and $14 more annually. The four-room, five-room and executive flat owner-occupiers will each pay between $21 and $26 more annual property tax in 2022. Iras said it monitors market rental trends to determine the AV of properties. AV is the estimated annual rent of the property if it were to be rented out and is determined based on the market rents of comparable properties. The AV of HDB flats had remained unchanged since its last revision in 2017. However, Iras added, with the rising market rents of HDB flats this year, the AV of all HDB flats will need to be revised upwards from Jan 1 next year. The property tax payable is derived by multiplying the property tax rate with the AV of the property, said the authority. Owner-occupiers enjoy concessionary property tax rates ranging between 0 per cent and 16 per cent, while the property tax rates for those who rented out their flats range between 10 per cent and 20 per cent. The tax rates are progressive, with higher-value properties being taxed at higher rates, it added. For example, owner-occupiers of a four-room flat will pay between $73.60 and $121.60 in property tax next year, after a $21.60 increase in annual tax payable from 2021. In comparison, the increase in annual tax payable from 2021 will be $26.40 for owner-occupiers of executive flats The applicable tax rates for HDB flats are up to 4 per cent for owner-occupied flats and 10 per cent for non-owner-occupied flats. All property owners will receive their property tax bills by end-December this year and are required to pay their property tax by Jan 31. There will be a 5 per cent penalty imposed for property owners who fail to pay or have not arranged to pay their tax via Giro instalments by the due date. Property owners facing financial difficulties may approach Iras for assistance to discuss a suitable payment plan before Jan 31.

  23. With the leaps and bounds made in technology, there is no denying that people’s lives have gotten easier. You can do so much with it and achieve even more. One of the most well-known technology, among many others, is VR (virtual reality). Three years ago, the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (电子科技大学) actively encouraged students to use VR. However, they may be regretting it now. Apparently, a student recently used VR to watch porn while masturbating in a public toilet. Male university students got a huge surprise when they walked into the public toilet. First off, there was a student standing in a cubicle with the door wide open. Not only was he openly masturbating with his pants down, while wearing a VR headset. No one is sure if the student forgot to close the door before excitedly jumping into the virtual world. Perhaps he did, but failed to close the door properly. Either way, whoever walked into the toilet was treated to quite a sight. According to the netizen who reported the matter, no one else was in the toilet during the incident. We can definitely understand why. Photos and videos of the student were uploaded to the internet, sealing his fate. As a fellow student aptly summarised: “(Either way), it’s a social death.” The news, which has spread widely among the students has generated much laughter and lewd comments. The university has a variety of VR tech at the students disposal, such as a VR library and VR gaming. However, they may be changing their policy on VR soon, thanks to this incident. Enjoying VR porn isn’t uncommon. However, enjoying it to the point of forgetting your surroundings may not be such a good idea. Always be aware, folks!

  25. (Bloomberg) — Even before the new omicron variant forced the delay of several vaccinated travel lanes, Singapore’s grand reopening was off to a slow start. Despite the social media hype and initial bookings rush, the number of people actually traveling using the city-state’s quarantine-free travel lanes is surprisingly few, according to Bloomberg calculations based on Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore data. Some 20,510 travelers received approval to enter Singapore since the first travel lanes kicked off in early September through Nov. 26, just 12.5% of the around 164,500 people theoretically allowed in under the nation’s daily quotas. Including Singapore citizens, permanent residents and children aged 12 and below who don’t need to apply for re-entry approval, that figure rises to 37,001, still only 22.5% of the total possible. While omicron will start to be reflected in carriers’ schedules in coming days, Singapore’s recovery already ranked the slowest among major countries in the Asia-Pacific region, OAG data show. A spokesperson from the Ministry of Transport didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. While no-one expected the floodgates to open right away and the daily quotas put a natural cap on visitors, the numbers coming in on the vaccinated travel lanes average out to less than 500 people a day, a far cry from the more than 181,600 travelers who used to stream through Changi Airport 365 days a year pre-Covid. “The numbers aren’t all that fantastic,” said Mohshin Aziz, director of the Pangolin Aviation Recovery Fund, which invests in aviation-related businesses. “The first to travel will be those who need to see family or who are going borderline insane with the travel curbs. But after that, reality will sink in very quickly” considering the high cost of air tickets and Covid tests. Omicron “creates an additional layer of anxiety,” he said. It’s not just the expense of travel during a pandemic — rapid result Covid tests at some airports in Europe run to almost 300 euro ($315) a pop — but the uncertainty of travel that’s putting people off. Even before omicron blasted onto the front pages, Covid cases were rising at an alarming rate in Europe, sparking fresh lockdowns in parts of the continent. One of the earliest places that Singapore announced a vaccinated travel lane with was Germany, where new infections have been hitting records. In Europe, Singapore also has vaccinated travel lanes with the U.K., Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Denmark and France. Freezing weather — Arctic blasts have left parts of the U.K. without power — and a winter ski season under threat from potential lockdowns for a second year has made the prospect of flying 12 hours across the globe only to be hit with frigid temperatures and lifestyle curbs less appealing. The risk of travel in a pandemic was only reinforced by the emergence of the new variant, which triggered a cascade of various travel curbs — even though its severity is yet to be determined. By Monday, several countries had started to raise their drawbridges, with Israel and Japan banning foreigners and others limiting entry to travelers from parts of southern Africa, where the new strain was first identified. The number of airline seats offered on flights from Singapore, which doesn’t have a domestic market, was about 22% of pre-Covid levels for the week of Nov. 22, the OAG data show. Singapore Airlines Ltd. said earlier this month it expects to be at just 43% of pre-Covid capacity by the end of December. And while capacity on flights to Australia picked up in the weeks after two-way quarantine-free travel was allowed, it’s still well under half of what it was pre-pandemic. Some of the same factors that are keeping people in Singapore from rushing toward the departure gates are holding back would-be visitors to the city-state, too. The cost of vaccinated travel lane flights, the price of Covid tests and the restrictions on daily life after arrival are putting many people off coming to the island nation, Hannah Pearson, the Kuala Lumpur-based director of tourism consultancy Pear Anderson, said. Most visitors to Singapore on vaccinated travel lane flights must take a Covid test upon arrival at the airport for around S$160 ($117). “What happens if you’re a family of six? You can’t eat out. What are you going to do? You’re still not getting this full travel experience,” she said, referencing the fact that local rules in Singapore currently restrict dining to groups of five. Singapore, where you can drive the length of the island in under two hours, also typically isn’t a place where travelers spend much time, she said. Many tourists use the nation as a transit destination en route to Europe or Australia, often never leaving the airport. “If you’re going to all that trouble to go to Singapore, to go anywhere really, you want to stay more than a few days,” Anderson said. “The long-haul market would probably use Singapore as a hub” however the more countries you visit, “the more border restrictions you’re going to bump into,” she said. Even travel within Asia using Singapore’s vaccinated travel lanes, which now extend to Malaysia and will soon encompass Sri Lanka, Thailand and Cambodia, isn’t cheap. People board a bus in Singapore on November 29, 2021, under the VTL for border-crossing passengers to Malaysia's Johor (PHOTO: AFP/Roslan RAHMAN) Mohshin, who was on one of the first vaccinated travel lane flights to Kuala Lumpur on Monday, said the cost of a round-trip ticket to Malaysia’s capital, plus forking out for the numerous Covid tests at either end, can rival a fare to a Europe. “If you’re traveling with kids, it’s too costly. It’s too taxing,” he said. “What’s the justification of getting swabbed four times and spending money on that?” There’s also the risk that unless Singapore acts swiftly to protect its own borders, omicron enters and spreads substantially in the densely populated city-state, causing other countries to turn their backs on the nation, further thwarting efforts to open up. “To me that’s what we want to avoid,” Associate Professor Alex Cook, vice-dean of research at the National University of Singapore’s Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health, said. “I’m not convinced that we need to stop it from getting into the country, but we want to avoid other people blocking the border, turning from Singapore.”

  30. Singapore was recognized for its pricey lifestyle today in an annual study. The tiny island with over five million people vaulted from fourth to second to tie with Paris as the world’s most expensive city to live, according to The Economist. Israel’s capital Tel Aviv topped the Worldwide Cost of Living survey conducted by the newspaper’s research arm and published Wednesday. Rounding out the top 10, in descending order, were Zurich, Hong Kong, New York, Geneva, Copenhagen, Los Angeles, and Osaka. The poll found the rate of inflation across the cities has “accelerated” since the pandemic began, rising to 3.5% from 1.9% last year, and 2.8% in 2019. It is the fastest rate recorded in the past five years. The survey compiled prices for more than 200 goods and services including recreation, petrol, and tobacco in 173 cities, 40 more than last year. Researchers noted the prices of products and services from a range of stores. The data was then converted to US dollars and compared to New York as the base line. In last year’s survey, Paris, Zurich and Hong Kong shared the No. 1 spot. According to the findings, Tel Aviv climbed to the top on the back of a strong New Shekel, which has driven higher transport and grocery prices. Meanwhile, at the bottom of the list, war torn Damascus and Tripoli were among the cheapest cities in the world. Image: Economist Intelligence Unit Image: Economist Intelligence Unit
