If you're talking about the Fung Wa it has been out of service for a few years. Maybe there is an even smaller operator running under the radar.

When I met my now wife she had a Beosound Ouverture in her flat. I asked her why she would buy something so expensive and she told me it wasn't that much and it was really pretty. I think she paid like 1100£ from John Lewis. As a gearh

Retailers treat their customers like criminals and are surprised most of them don't come back! News at 11. BTW, the convenience store near me has a massive shoplifting problem. The owners keep it understaffed. The thieves know the only

I bought my last 1U server a few years ago. The space savings I thought I was gaining was quickly diminished by the fact that we weren't going to be able to fill a cabinet simply due to running over our power envelope. It was going to

Do you think this could be adapted to smaller robot like this Pi-based XGO CM4[0] I know they have different hardware but the end result is quite similar: a mobile robot with an articulated grabber. And seeing your prototype made me think o

My card has an international number which is US +1-(AreaCode)-XXX-XXXX. It used to bypass the IVR and send you directly to the top of the queue to a CSR. Because who has time to putz around the IVR when you're paying .25-.50/min t

Wow, compared to some of their other products $299 for a TE sampler seems absolutely reasonable and much lower than I expected.

Passengers aren't paying for an extra bag these days. They are paying for every bag, carry-on or checked. They care creating new classes even lower than economy. And this is causing problems with booking systems like Concur. I fly a fe

EVGo already charges a $3.99 session fee. I made the mistake of topping up a EV rental without reading the fine print. BTW, Tesla charges $12.99/mo for access to the SuperCharger network for non-Tesla brands. The $/kW rate is pret

For a conventional fixed rate mortgage it's highly unlikely. ARM, 5/1 may be assumable depending on terms.

One of my grand-uncles lived in the Park Plaza Hotel. He was a widower, a WWII vet, and loved the city. I was a kid at the time so assumed his lifestyle was closer to "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" and didn't know what an

I feel the same for people with near 0% interest rate mortgages. Like we bought a starter home prior to the pandemic. Buying the same home now would be 3.5x the monthly mortgage payment. Buying a slightly nicer, 1 extra bedroom near our nei

You can’t get a flat in Singapore until 35, 21 if married. Staying at home is not a choice, you’re forced to or be rich enough to buy a million dollar flat.

From what I understand working poor and those on government assistance may not have a choice in keeping adult age children at home. The children might feel pressure to move out because of privacy and limited resources in the home. If they a

Name another country with an economy as dynamic as the US where the adults choose to stay with their parents. I’m aware this is the norm in other cultures yet it’s born out of necessity, rarely a choice. Where this is the norm usually young

Hmm. Ctrl-F "ECC": 0 results found. This could be a great product but the chance of even one bit randomly flipping is far too high.

Well more recently I had a urine drug screening for a job. I passed obviously but I was curious about the results and the drug testing company also told me it was the property of the company.

I've passed through those portals probably hundreds of times and I don't remember them being that sensitive. In fact, I think it's just measuring if there is one human or 2 trying to pass in the portal. Unless you have an exc

I assume the largest evaders are hard to pursue and prosecute because they have the money and resources to do so. But the small to medium tax evaders were much easier and a lot more flagrant with cars, planes, yachts, etc. Meanwhile, the US

Any half competent HR system can keep track of it. I know because part of my job was managing those systems. Setting PTO was simply advancing a digit in a field in a giant HR database. Not exactly rocket science. BTW, senior executives had

The EU has all of those problems as well (UK, IE, MT are right-hand drive) and its been a success in my opinion. I'm not sure if the AU is ready to go as deep as common currency. A unified trading block makes trading with larger nation
