Yeah, I lived in Chuxiong before. The government may say they are all "Yizu", but don't tell them that. If I can recall just in Yunnan alone there is something like 8 to 10 "Yizu" groups that don't consider themselves to be Yizu.
Also the Windows 8 Apps of iQiyi and Sohu TV don't have advertisements. They also have a way to download in advance. Never tried to copy the download to another computer afterwards though.
Ok, a bit off topic, but useful if you just want a bit of Western soap operas without commercials.
OH, and yes, my friends have much better sucess with Astril. But I already paid for one year of ExpressVPN, and it's good enough for me :P
For ExpressVPN I find it'll be slow if you try to connect to the "recommended" list except for Hong Kong. Usually Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia, and Singapore are good enough for Youtube.
Also I find if I "fake" connect to three or four other random countries first by cancelling before it finishes connecting the speed is usually much faster.
Their Android client is also much better than their desktop clients.
The chipset depends on which carrier you'll be using. The Xiaomi 3 version for China Mobile uses NVidia, and the rest use Snapdragon 800.
I believe the Xiaomi 4 out now uses a Snapdragon 801. Not sure about the one for China Mobile that comes out next month.
No results found.
Cheese tasted great. Much better than other pizza joints.
Excellent salad bar. Hamburgers are usually ok. The fancier dishes were a little lacking.
Giving it a 4 stars for the salad bar. If you were going there for "fine dining" then probably best to go somewhere else.
The store also has some nice imported food(though obviously Metro is cheaper for some things). The freshly baked goods are nice too.
Seems to be pretty hit or miss. First time I went there the pizza and hamburgers were great. 2nd time the pizza was terrible, and the hamburger was ok. 3rd time the pizza was ok, but people were smoking inside by the time we left. Guess the no smoking policy is not enforced.
Not bad. Pretty much what you would expect, but expensive for China.
Expensive, but decent bread. Other places are better, but not bad if you're in a hurry.
Farmers protest land grab south of Kunming

Fog shuts down Kunming airport, strands thousands
Posted byApparently a journalist interviewed the locals and they were quite confused on why they built an airport there. This area is known to have dense fog every year, and yet they didn't prepare for it... meh.
The only thing more perplexing is the new law to give tickets for running a yellow light (but I guess that completely backfired already)
Dianchi activists look to spotlight declining fish stocks
Posted byuhm, I thought the water in Dianchi was rated unsafe even for industrial use. Why would they let people fish there? Celebrate National Day, and get cancer free... glad I never eat fish in Kunming.

So have they rebuilt the library at the local college they declared unsafe to occupy after the earthquake yet?
