Same here in Malaysia, though many institutes have been making the switch to Telegram. Our Ministry of Health and National Security Council who release daily updates concerning COVID-19 both have Telegram channels with over a million subscribers. …

There are plenty. Telegram and Signal to name but a couple. All encrypted, and much better with regards to user privacy and data security then any Facebook-owned entity. > it’s a very good app. Lots of users, easy to use and effective. It’s great …

Yea many people won't read and won't care about the changes, but with regards to choice there's plenty of alternatives out there. People are just too lazy or too stubborn to try them out.

When Facebook acquired WhatsApp in 2014, people were wondering how Facebook would utilise WhatsApp and the data that it amasses from its billions of users all around the globe. Facebook has made some changes to the popular messaging app since its …

Hey folks! @slamdunk406 and myself have been given the honour and responsibility of running Cake's Twitter account with the aim of driving more traffic to the site and promoting Cake to the masses. We've been tweeting your posts out and it would be …

Amazing video Chris! I'm not gonna go vegan, but I'll definitely try to eat more veggies moving forward.

It's a complex issue for sure, and an uphill battle. It's so easy to eat unhealthily for a number of reasons - cost, accessibility, convenience etc. Controlling advertising might not affect adults as much as it would kids, since adults are already …

I don't drink coffee. I'm full on with the tea. But maybe not the kind of tea most people think of. In Malaysia we have a special milk tea called "teh tarik" which literally translates to "pulled tea". It's my ultimate favourite drink.

We are now 7 hours into 2021 here in Malaysia. Though I'm doubtful we'll end the pandemic this year in its entirety, I do hope the world gets a better grip on it and we can start to recover.

> Are you posting these images just for us all to look at, and appreciate, or are you hoping for concrete suggestions for further improvement in your macro work? You did not express an interest in any image critiques so I hesitate. I was just …

Two years ago I completed a year-long photography project on Twitter. For 365 consecutive days I posted a photo taken on my smartphone to the social network and I shared my experience here on Cake after I was done. I repeated the project again in …

I don't really see any reason why religion and science can't coexist. I believe in my faith (Islam) and I also believe in science (obviously, as my education is in biomedical science). If anything, learning about the intricacies of life at the …

What kind of person steals a freaking plant??

> If you "create content" to post here, and take days to do that - what's your actual goal, and do you think that this goal is best served by posting the content you created on Cake? I write because I enjoy it. And I also enjoy it when other …

> It is possible that the biggest enemy Cake has is simply time. If we just keep hanging in there and putting out more content, maybe at some point the scale will tip in the type of direction that we all want. I agree that time is a major factor …

> Yeah, there were a couple of factors. One is that at one time we had employees and made it part of their jobs to post every day in order to generate content because content begets content. It's a common strategy to get a site to critical mass. …

> This is something that @JazliAziz has brought up multiple times on here. For good reason, I think. I didn't just bring up the idea of more promotion on Twitter, I even volunteered to run the account 😆 I'm on Twitter every day and it wouldn't be …

Wow. Did not expect to see this. I've been busy in the lab recently and writing about all the books I read this year (which I just posted) that I just did not see this when it was posted a week ago. Truly saddened by the prospect of Cake closing …

Last year was the first time I took reading seriously (outside of my studies), and I managed to read 12 books throughout the entire year. I didn't want it to be a one time thing. I wanted reading to be something I did as a habit, and so I continued …

I've been using YouTube Premium for over a year now. Love it. https://twitter.com/JazliAziz/status/1336825786372788226?s=20

For the better part of the last 10 years whenever anyone asked me "what do you do?" my answer would always be "I'm a student". It's not untrue, but it never told the whole story. Yes, I was a student, still am too as I'm pursuing my PhD, but I'm …

In a huge move that has shaken the movie and streaming industries, Warner Bros. has made the bold decision to release all it's upcoming movies for next year on its HBO Max streaming service as well as in cinemas on the same day. Wonder Woman 1984 …

Malaysia will start vaccinations next year but only a portion of the population will get it first. The spread of the virus is contained to several clusters while we are under the current Conditional Movement Control Order, so even if a small …

Glad to help!

This is accurate. The biggest risk of transmission is person-to-person, not environmental. UV would be a good solution to airborne particles, but COVID-19 is not airborne. Some of the largest clusters in Malaysia come from shared residences where …
