      I do mostly online purchase nowadays. Yesterday I went to store to collect my shoes after online purchase. Due to my earlier online order cancelled by them I was given 20% voucher for store purchase so I got to go physical store. Sizes not correct for online purchase can be returned. Very convenient.


      On way home just now I dropped by ntuc to buy sesame oil because I m controlling my Redmart purchase as will get cashback but we going holiday soon. If not I will buy it online too.

      Recently I m chking on Uniqlo app just for browsing. Never do their online purchase yet coz convenient to walk to Uniqlos.

      Shopee, Lazada and Q0010…I feel more secure as been using them for quite awhile.

        KSP setting is totally different from the past. I cannot read pm, and it kept showing error.

        The whole setting is messy too and as if got infected;(
        I get kicked out occasionally..error msg and asked to verify as human. But so far the setting still look the same for reading on hp. But not sure on laptop tho.

          Actually, I mostly wouldn't want to go back to pen and paper - too slow, and I would hate to have to constantly walk to and from the post office! I've pretty much lost the ability to write more than a sentence at a time! But I think people have got too complacent - thinking that computers can never go wrong or break down, and that anything that appears on a screen must be correct. Offline procedures are still needed, and simple dollar notes! And the human brain is still needed for higher level thinking.

          AI is likely to replace some jobs, but not all - and someone still has to manage the AI. I just pity those who can't or won't learn the new jobs, and still insist that they only want to do the old jobs the old way. Something I'm having to remind my ASD daughter - it's hard for her.

          I've signed up for a 2-day course on Generative AI later this month, using up some SkillsFuture credits. Will let you know if I learn anything interesting!
          Writing letters to pen pals think around during our schooling time. When came out to work everything emails. We are fortunate enough to experience the change. I feel our newer generations base is already there..so any progression to them should be still manageable. Our parents are comfortable with social media, WhatsApp, wechat etc, actually not bad already.

          On some matters, sometimes I m still missing those older days processes..like go bank do some banking matters. Now lesser customer service personnel, some branches also closed. You call hoping to talk to real person, sometimes only robot. Tried chat in the online platform..it is robot.

          We shall wait for your feedback on the AI course.

                        I dare not buy shoes online unless it's a repeat model and I know exactly how it fits. I haven't done returns, but it seems like too much trouble, and what if the replacement size is also not right? So I only buy shoes in person. I sometimes buy clothes online, but only those where the fitting is more relaxed. Recently, I saw a batik loose-fitting cheongsam-style dress on Carousell which I really liked, and the measurements seemed right, and it fits fine. My younger daughter and I have bought quite a few items (other stuff as well as clothes) on Carousell over the past couple of years - we like to support the \"circular economy\" and save money when we can. We also buy on Lazada, and my recent book purchases were on Amazon and Opentrolley. And of course, Fairprice on a regular basis!
