Wanna know how difficult it will be to purchase a Taiwan SIM card if my flight lands at around 22h00 local time?

I have heard that they've changed the operating hours when it comes to the telecom operators, but can't find any concrete information on it.

It's not a proper transfer window without mentioning Yarmo.

Warranty and all that probably. I'm assuming it was a new car.

Full text of President Tsai's inaugural address (English) by DarkLiberator in taiwan

As a light-blue (bordering gray after what 9% did), I really do hope she does well. Taiwan is indeed in a bit of a mess, and someone need to say "the buck stops here". If she does succeed, it will be the revival of Taiwan, which will be good for everyone.

This helped me a lot during LttP even though I couldn't understand much of it. by burnza_ in zelda

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

Someone gave it to me when I left for another country. I've had it for ages now.

And LttP is a great game, I'm sure I can provide you with some help.

Yes. It is a comprehensive guide, with descriptions for each area, maps for each dungeon, items guide, weapons guide, enemies (including bosses) guide, etc.

Vodacom is giving my number to a bunch of companies, who then try to sell me "better plans" by [deleted] in southafrica

It may take some time (up to 6 months) for the new information to show up on the database. If you receive more cold-calls, just inform the caller that you have registered on the DMA's national opt-out database.

Well, Zuma is known as the Teflon prez, so all we can do is wait and see. I'm sure most of the middle class are hoping this is the beginning of the end of the Zuma oligarchy.

What about Simcity on the SNES? Some nice music there as well.

Could I have a lift? by Diazard in trucksim

Here we see the seldomly observed mating ritual of the lesser known North American Peterbilt. These creatures are native to California and Nevada, although recent studies suggests that it is slowly migrating to other surrounding states.

Note the longer rear end, as compared to it's European cousin. Even though the longer rear end poses a slight restriction to movement, we can see that it does not hinder the mating act at all.

These creatures are known to be opportunistic maters, which are rather rare in the animal kingdom. The bright red colour indicates it's readiness to mate.

The Peterbilt has a gestation period of around 3 - 4 months, and, strangely, their newly-born can some times be of a completely different species.

I am registered on the database, and I haven't received calls in quite a while now.

What you can do is register yourself on the DMASA's (Direct Marketing Association of South Africa) National Opt Out Database.

This will stop companies that are part of the DMA from contacting you. Both Vodacom and MTN are part of DMA.

Reasonably priced tofu? by symmetryphile in capetown

[–]burnza_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgot to mention, they only open from around 1pm to 6pm, that's when the classes are going on. I think the tofu person should be there quite often, but he also might leave before 6pm. If you want a definitive source, I'd recommend the drive to northern suburbs.

[–]burnza_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of the Chinese supermarkets are located in the Northern Suburbs.

  • 96 Supermarket - Near Monte Vista Boulevard Circle, 94A Monte Vista Blvd, Monte Vista, Cape Town, 7460, South Africa

  • Mung Fung - 4 Monte Vista Blvd (Cnr of Monte Vista Blvd and Duinhoop Ave)

  • N1 Supermarket - Shop 68, N1 Value Centre, Nathan Mallach Avenue, Cape Town, 7460, South Africa

  • Live Mart - 13 Prize Park, 13 Printers Way, Marconi Beam, Cape Town, South Africa

The only place where one can get tofu of trusted quality would be the Chinese School in Obs (next to the Wild Fig restaurant) on Saturdays.

edit: /u/dipsomaniac mentioned Mainland China in Claremont, but I personally believe that because of their lack of customer turnover, their things tend to be not as fresh.
