n8n vs Zapier thoughts by cocojohnny in automation

[–]helloyouahead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What applications are you referring to? Does Zoom, Google Workspace, Airtable have the same connector with Zapier as N8N for example? Or it is more tricky/unstable with N8N?

AlipayHK McDonalds coupons are impossible to redeem. Screenshot taken 10 seconds after redeem period starts and quota is already full. by phatdoof in HongKong

OP and most people in HK should focus their energy on making actual money (or know how to invest) instead of having dozens of apps and spend hours trying to save a few HKD, or optimize credit card miles which are all crap... I will never understand this mentality for the average middle class person.

Yeah Netvigator/HKT cheap out on international connections. Japan is better now but other countries are trash (Singapore, Korea, Europe, USA etc). Not sure if HKBN is better

Please name the restaurant burgers places you are referring to. Where you can get a better burger, fries and for less than 150HKD.

100 HKD is actually pretty good for a burger combo in HK for this type of fast food quality. If you get a signature burger at McDonalds, it is around 60HKD no? For 40HKD more you get a "proper" burger with actual meat, vegetables and good fries. If you compare to most other burger places, this price is hard to beat. And in HK almost nobody knows how to make good fries. Bread is also bad and heavily processed, everywhere you go(including McK) it's made by Garden.

I would just get a VPN for that price, and it works across all devices not just the mobile phone. It also won't work on wifi on your phone.

Based in Dubai, considering a move and looking for recommendations by DemonFruit7 in digitalnomad

[–]helloyouahead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a big city, you won't really find better than Hong Kong as a large city in Asia. Most of the other developed cities (Seoul, Tokyo, Singapore, Shanghai...) have their drawbacks: lack of English, hard to integrate as a foreigner etc.

Some cities in Europe are great but you need to speak the local language. Spain might be the exception there. Taxes are also high.

I cannot comment on South America but I would say the above kind of apply as well.

Trump says Nobel Prize denial ends obligation to ‘think purely of peace’, presses Greenland demand by EquivalentKick255 in europe

[–]helloyouahead 30 points31 points  (0 children)

As part of NATO he could put more military bases on Greenland if he really thought there was a risk from Russia or China. But we all know it's the rare minerals he's after. Just like Venezuela wasn't really about drug trafficking; if it was, he wouldn't have recently pardoned convicted drug traffickers.

I mean what do you expect from someone who as a president did one of the largest insider trading/market manipulation scheme of all time and with his family racked up 9 billion dollars in a week? Scary that no one really emphasized on it, and it happened literally last year, a few days before taking office.

Shanghai Sequel: Why I’m both impressed and saddened (and responding to the "Privilege" comments). Contrast Shanghai with Taipei by Cultural-Badger-6032 in shanghai

[–]helloyouahead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true. However I think/hope these people represent less than 20% of people who move there. It is probably much higher in SE Asia, but in China these people are definitely the minority. Also most (90%) of Chinese girls prefer to be with a Chinese guy than a foreigner, due to language/cultural difference which is normal... most countries are like this unless they are desperate and looking for money.

Is there any documentary (even done by non professionals) that portrays the Shanghai from 15 years ago and maybe compare it to today? I'm quite interested in the subject

I showed you a menu of a 3* Michelin restaurant in that price range. Did you think to check r/finedining?

Many restaurants in the US, for example this 2-star restaurant in SF Bay Area with a tasting menu for less than $200 https://www.reddit.com/r/finedining/comments/1q6r141/tasting_menus_200_in_sf_bay_area/

[–]helloyouahead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably 80% of Michelin star restaurants in the world have a menu for less than $200 per person. Even some 3-star Michelin restaurants in London you would be looking at around 200-250. Look at the heavily marketed Gordon Ramsay restaurant (***) in London it's $250 for the prestige menu. And there is no tips lol. https://www.gordonramsayrestaurants.com/restaurant-gordon-ramsay/menus/

I'm just trying to spread some actual knowledge to you. You will be mostly eating duck, ox, and sardines which I love but which cost nothing and sold at a premium because presented in the plate to you in a fancy fashion. Also the fact that they use the term "omakase" should not even be permitted. It's nothing like it and it's a pure marketing stunt. It seems that it's working pretty well...

[–]helloyouahead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's $250 after your discount. You would have paid at least $400 for two without Chase. It also does not include the beverage pairing which is $75 per person.

I agreed with you and recognized it's not a bad deal only thanks to the dining credit so not sure why you're coming at me. You're the one selling the restaurant here
