Are you gay? Because that is illegal in Singapore. Seems very modern and forward thinking to me to make an entire lifestyle punishible by law. Singapore attracts people like you, who are willing to overlook the glaring injustice because it

You are confusing catholicism with the teachings of christ. Two very different messages. Love your neighbor and judge others as you would judge yourself.

I hate America as much as the next Mexican, but to compare the two speaks to how little you have traveled. The US has freedom of the press, Singapore does not. It really is that simple. I worry about my ability to enter Singapore after post

Why am I not surprised that it is Singapore doing this. That country is an authoritarian nanny state disguised as Disney Land. I have visited many times and have lots of friends there. Nobody cares about freedom of the press because they ar

I see mantis shrimp almost every day, and I warn photographers to approach them very slowly because otherwise they will run and hide. If you can see a mantis shrimp, they can almost certainly see you. The best way to approach them is to hov

Both require that you have sms based 2fa first. I have had this conversation with both of their support departments and its a non starter.

I hope paypal and transferwise follow this example. International travelers have been suffering for years due to this horrible ux. SMS based 2FA is a farce, I look forward to it going extinct.
