Re: The Recommended Movies Thread

Dune Part 2 - there's a pretty good 1080p. TS (telecine) out now, release group EMIN3M. Video is fairly good quality, not completely sure if the colours are muted compared to the cinema release, I guess so as is usual, it's either that or garish overcompensated colour. The sound is quite clear but ...

Re: Govt to cut alcohol taxes and tariffs

In other words, its unlikely to make a difference to wine prices for most of us as suspected. Has anyone actually seen prices drop yet? Of course, as expected. I'll still be buying very little wine then as I can't drink the cheap fruit juice horror. I wonder how changes will reflect in imported spi...

Re: Mustard

cowhead mustard.jpeg In the end I couldn't resist buying this, as I really wanted the large and ironic tin! I don't have Colman's to compare it with but it's fine ground, not highly yellow-coloured, mixes to a paste very well (maybe very slightly textured but makes no difference when using as you d...

Re: The Beer Thread 2

Definitely not tried it but using Google I found that they have a wide range of beers - not sure it’s 300 but coincidentally, one of my favourite beers Fullers London Pride was listed at 300 Baht for 500ml Insane price. Have to be desperate for a taste or much richer than me. For imported beer I'll...

Yes, I think I remember he chose not to believe due to absence of supporting proof, but didn't go so far as to say that others should not just follow faith if that's what they wanted. He liked to open it up to discussion though!

Re: Astronomy, cosmology and space thread

RIP Carl Sagan, astronomer, writer and firm supporter of SETI (9 November 1934 – 20 December 1996). Here's a chuckle for his molecules, wherever they may be. The words are his, from his book Pale Blue Dot.

Re: Thai Cheese

I have just discovered a new shop/café on the side road from Soi 94 (the same side as Ga Hanoi but about 150 meters further down). It sells a variety of cheeses made in Thailand (Brie, Camembert, Goat's cheese, etc. along with Salami and various different kinds of bread. I tasted several cheeses an...

Re: The Boxing Thread

I usually watch the 'big' boxing events particularly the heavyweights and also UFC. Used buffstreams.sx for a couple years and haven't encountered many issues. A few crashes here and there like the footy but just a quick reload of the page does the trick. Used vipstand for a good 5-10 years before ...

And then the news George North is calling it a day on his international career after this match.... After 110+ Caps for Wales and the Lions, fair play to him :bow: I just pray this 6 Nations and his last match will not be a blot on his career!! I saw that this morning in the news. I'd hate for such...

As for you, cameljockey, you should be ashamed of yourself. The Pepe of the forum, kicking a man while he's down. :tsk:
I know, right? I've always been the one who will say what others only think. Shocking behaviour.

If anyone is as crazy as me and wants to watch the subtitled 30 part Chinese adaptation of Three Body download the VIKI WEBRip, not the AMZN one, as the AMZN subtitles miss whole scenes, like when an actor's thoughts are being spoken, and also words shown onscreen like computer screens, phone messag...

Re: Donation of used clothes.

I remembered, it's Siam Handlebar. I found a phone number 090 976 9919 (the one on their Facebook page doesn't work). If you can take clothes to them they distribute to the poor people in the jungle, and will let you know who they give to. Business Details: Cuisine: Multi-Cuisine Parking: Street par...
