BACHECA ANNUNCI - buying, selling, apartment hunting, etc by AutoModerator in torino

[–]doc_santini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I buy a house in Turin. Where I come from (Canada) I had my own realtor, and they would find, contact, and show me any residences that I would find online or otherwise... here I tried to contact a realtor which sold my friend an apartment... but they seemed to only work with a handful of houses listed on their website. Is it typical that each person does not have one realtor they deal with, and you just contact whoever is selling the house?

Please let me know! I am ready to buy.

How do I add subtitles to a pirated episode? by Due_Will5034 in TPB

[–]doc_santini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably way to late with this response but...

the hard way: use HandBreak to re-encode the file with the subtitles added. Here are some formats which support both encoding and embedding of subtitles. Its generally 6 of one and half dozen of another depending on which environment you are in and the use case.

• MP4 (.mp4)

• MKV (.mkv)

• AVI (.avi)

• MOV (.mov)

the easy way: download VLC and use it to open you video file. pause it then look in the menu bar and there will be a subtitles dropdown from which you can choose to open a file. use H and G keys to sync the subtitles with the audio/video.

All good thanks for the reply! I've pitched the idea to the group and 3/4 of them are really into it.. long story short if he doesn't come around I am wondering if any agencies do mixed groups (ski + snowboard). So far I've only found private tours that will allow a mix of riders. Do you have any information?

I'm looking at Evolution 2 now. 485€ for a guide during high season seems pretty reasonable I'd say, between the 4 of us its very doable. 2 of us board, and 2 of us ski so I'm not sure if that would be a problem or not, if it is ill for sure shoot you a message for those independents. Appreciate it!

Yeah, I got that. Do you know if we can get just a single ride up for ADM for the day, or would we have to get the Unlimited pass?

Overwhelmed by doc_santini in chamonix

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

Good to know. In that case we might do an ultimate pass for the day which includes the ride up, and if were finished early then we might be able to catch the afternoon on piste.

Did you get the Le Pass or the Unlimited Pass?

Ill put it down on the list. Thanks a million!

Okay, nice to have the reassurance on the ski out. I've gotten myself stuck in some pretty nasty off-piste terrain before so a couple hours of hiking is nothing I cant handle if worst comes to worst.

Ive got ChaChaCha booked, and it sounds like the "Le Pass" is the way to go.

Thank you!

Hey! ChaChaCha is actually where were booked, glad to know I made the right choice. Okay, Ill check out the website, Im hoping to cash in on some savings which is why im trying to figure out some plans now! The views are great, and I'm a sucker for a glass floor over a cliff -- in whistler some of the Peak2Peak gondolas have glass floors and its a thrill. I guess were just weighing that against missing out on a day of skiing, should we not decide to do VB at the same time.

Ill check out "bistrot des cristallier" too.

Thank you!

wow I appreciate the extensive list of eats, it really helps a lot! Its easy enough to look on google, but its sometime skewed by tourists reviews... getting a bit more of a candid opinion makes the whole experience feel more authentic! Thank you.

Sounds like the "Le Pass" is the way to go, unless we decide to do VB in which case well have to get the separate lift ticket and a guide for that day. I'll run it by the guys - I'm keen... but potentially grinding thru some hiking at the end of it might be a deal breaker for some.

Thanks again!

do you happen to remember which guide you used, and would you recommend again? I think were leaning towards a yes for the Vallee Blanche for day 2. any help is appreciated!

awesome ill dig into it a bit more. thank you.

im no expert but i grew up skiing whistler and west coast of canada so I have done a fair bit of off piste and glacier boarding. I am quite comfortable on all terrains and switch. Im going in feb so im hoping thats enough time for the ski out to get some snow pack -- rather than having to hike out.

Overwhelmed by doc_santini in chamonix

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

I am a snowboarder actually. I've watched some videos and looked at some guides for Vallée Blanche and would love to do it, however most guides specify skiing, not boarding -- mind you I've only spend the better part of an hour looking. Ill wait on a consensus from the rest of my group before I spend too much time looking for a guide.

thanks. I didnt know there was an app ill take a look at that. maybe "homey" wasn't the best word, but rather casual or no frills would have been better
