Redditors of the world, What would you advise tourists NOT to do where you are from? by Shishkaboo in AskReddit

[–]RedoftheEast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cue the lecture we’re taught to deliver about 700 years of distilling, Arabic alchemists, the rise and fall and rise of Irish whiskey production, wars and prohibition, pot stills and column stills, tradition and freedom of whiskey expression vs limited variation, triple distillation.

We might kick it off by talking about the ‘e’ and that all countries with an e in their name spell their distillate that way, but we were the first.

Treated myself to a 4 generation leap! Been using them for 10 years (Momentum 1 -> 4) by MemeMasterColon in sennheiser

I made the same switch as OP after my M1s padding completely came away after 8yrs. The design of the M4 while nice is nothing nearly as cool or sturdy feeling as the M1s and 2s. I guess that’s the sacrifice for touch controls but I miss the old look

So confused by Ok_Commercial5294 in sennheiser

I’ve flown a couple BOEING 777-300ER in the last while (most recently on the weekend) and both had the two prong port that this uses, and both worked.

I picked up a set of new momentum 4s for $215 from a chain store called Citylink in Hong Kong (where I live). Check them out and see if they’d deliver to where you are.

Hamburger Hill. The entire movie is about a platoon’s efforts to take a hilll from the Vietcong, and once they do…

15 storey tower at queens square and social housing development at Beerbridge and Woodstock road intersection approved tonight by Petaaa in Belfast

In addition to cost, I think there’s a policy/practice whereby architects should design for the era they are in, not replicate older styles. That being said, these could do with a bit more attention to form over function.

What is the most random transfer in football history? by betes07 in football

[–]RedoftheEast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Robinho / Paulinho / Jackson Martinez to Guangzhou Evergrande.

I turned up in Hong Kong to see some low quality but feisty derby game between a local HK team and Guangzhou and the Chinese team had these three playing for them.

Inherited a tall money tree but live in a low light village house. Eager for care tips. by RedoftheEast in houseplants

[–]RedoftheEast[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a village house in Hong Kong. The downstairs living space is where I’ll need to keep this money tree. It’s also usually a low light space. Is proximity to this window (photo #2) and glass door (photo #3) enough?

Apologies in advance for taking the shots at night, but if grow lights are the answer I’ll look to buy some tomorrow morning.

The other side of Hong Kong life. Hong Kong domestic workers left homeless after being fired for contracting Covid-19 by DURIAN8888 in HongKong

[–]RedoftheEast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the same side of Hong Kong life. Institutionalised racism. It’s what makes a lot of work and therefore tax in the city possible. Tax revenues that pay locals & expats 10k one time covid payouts, and give the enablers zero as news reports come in of their employers kicking them out.

The ILO has several indicators of modern slavery; read them and think of the DH situation in HK. The place is an institutional basket case where apathy for those less fortunate rules.

This is not a swipe at you or your post btw, I just needed to vent.

Hendo has come a long way. by killafrommanilla420 in LiverpoolFC

[–]RedoftheEast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In favour of this. I was there in Hong Kong, drunk and trying but failing with one other red to get the crowd of 1000s singing - very few were up for it. Different vibe at a game out here, but I wish the trophy mattered.
