I had to try this phone after reading about it. It really is great, very happy so far (and im a VERY heavy user, usually i plug my samsung note into a monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, and external drive, all at the same time). The only thing is, it only has english and chinese, and the english is a bit dodgy at times (but still acceptable). I bought it at 三九.
I havent done any work this year but last year i had no problems whatsoever with using skype for international work (a paid skype subscription). I also had a PC left on at home with a bunch of macros in MS Office which synched everything with my qq account, including being able to use outlook for running sql queries and returning results in .csv to qq. Obviously a bit risky, and while i did have a lot of plans to expand the macros to cover security and more functionality, i never got around to it. At one point there was a major lockdown in china for several days but i was totally unaffected thanks to the macros.
I have a definite preference to have a pc switched on at home (europe or US), and thinking about trying the software "team viewer" next time i need to work - anyone tried it?
In my case i got the trilingual (excl Chinese) CDC in my country of residence and exchanged it for free for a trilingual (incl Chinese) version at my embassy in Beijing. Simple process, 2 steps only. That paper and a passport is all you need.
From what i read above it seems some people have it harder, translations, legalizations etc.
According to the website u need an invite in order to buy a oneplus one.
Consider going for a galaxy note 2 or 3. Prices dropping like stones at the moment due to the arrival of 4.
CFC's were banned in many countries in the late 80's but the most recent news was that the hole in our ozone is healing more slowly than expected. 2065 is the new date.
So while we have it, i wonder why they dont just use it as a chimney to suck all the other pollutants out? Who can answer me that?
Take me to your leader :)
No results found.
been there several times, very satisfied every time. menu has classics like fish n chips, bolognese, pizzas etc. very tasty, at good prices.
Friendly staff and good service, food and prices are ok. No complaints but its nothing special either, and not worth a visit unless you live closeby.
Nice atmosphere and cosy but the western food is bad. I think they deep-fry the burgers. As a cafe - 4 stars (service is a little bit lacking at times), coffee and cakes etc are good. As a restaurant, 2 stars (western food is too bad, asian food is mamahuhu).
"All the Meat" only had about 3 slices of salami on it, so maybe i got the wrong order. Anyway, leaving that aside - soggy bread, ketchup as tomatosauce, and cheese was probably from a tube.
Potato wedges soggy as well.
I left half my meal, the only thing up to scratch was the coke and the service. Will not be back.
If the name of the shop is written in english then they should speak english, yes! A pokey shithole trying to give the impression of a quaint li'l ole bookshop. Pig-ignorant staff, never been greeted with a smile there, nor even greeted. If you must shop here, bring your own bag. 1 star earned for selection and the (for me) convenient location.

There are too few cabs and too few busses. Ban private cars from the city center.
