Forums > Living in Kunming > I need tech support

@ Heinu

The newer computer is fixed.

The thinkpad T61.

It would be nice to keep the data, but it is not essential.

I have no discs to do an installation and it is not something I have done before. I am willing to pay for tech support.

The reason I suggested PM is that it avoids people publishing personal details (phone, email, etc) on open forum.

In the UK they are providing special loans and grants to get people to install solar cells onto rooftops. Householders then sell electricity to electricity companies on the national grid.
This is cheaper for the electricity companies than buying coal, oil, gas to generate electricity.

The economic benefit of cost of installation, return of cost over life of cell, is being disputed. If only the UK had more sunshine.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Teahouses/Restaurants on Green Lake Park

At the opposite end of the lake from the Green Lake Hotel there is a restaurant in what looks like an old converted grey stone warehouse. The restaurant is over two floors.

The Green Lake Hotel, has an area above the main entrance that serve tea and beers, but I don't think they do hot food. Past reception, up the escalators, double back and all the way to the front of the hotel again. Big windows, armchairs, sofas, tables and a view. You might be able to get cakes sent up from the coffee shop downstairs. There may also be an adjacent restaurant, but there will be a minimum cover charge for a room.

Gold
I think you get about 16g of gold from one tonne of ore.

However, we use a lot in mobile phones and circuit boards. Recycled old mobile phones yield a lot more gold per tonne. I can't remember the exact figure for yield/tonne, but there is about 0.24mg gold in the average phone.

@ Chingis
Every morning I invest a chunk of my non-renewable time to take a hot shower.
That is enough investment for me.

I would guess that a proportion of the money is being invested. Invested in setting up (dumping lots of bikes on the streets) in new cities to attract more deposits. If that is the case, there are parallels with Ponzi schemes.

Didi are unlikely to go broke anytime soon, but even if OFO is owned by Didi, if it is running at a loss, Didi will offload it very quickly. Once the business case is established, or not, people will either re-invest or divest.

The OFO bikes are cheap, have a manual lock, no GPS, I assume no app except for payment. These are the bikes mostly seen ridden by kids, who often are riding a misappropriated machine. It looks like the OFO business model is lowest cost, and accept the losses of assets.
The MOBIKEs have remote locking, and GPS tracking. The bikes were custom built and were expensive to have made, but the app helps to find the nearest bike, and you can reserve them, to save you walking to a bike which in the meantime is hired by someone else. The MOBIKE business model seems to be larger upfront costs, but better service, and traceability of the assets.

I am not sure if the OFO business case is sustainable, only time will tell.

Elevated trains would have been quicker, which is why they use them for long sections of track outside the city.
However, it would have requited tearing down whole neighborhoods, causing huge disruption to city life, not just traffic. Then there is the socio-economic impacts of closing down large areas of the city. Additionally, the large numbers of demolitions would have a major impact on air quality, and what do you with all of the building rubble.
Finally, the increased cost for the whole process; bearing in mind that cost was also a major factor in the lack of progress thus far.

This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.

A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.

Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.

In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.

They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.

They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
