Hi! Is there a reason why you posted this twice?

There's no space between "13," and "000". Fail.

How does it feel to be the only one in the room who managed not to get the joke?

One nitpick: The hyphenation thing is a Westernism and somewhat antiquated at that. None of the Chinese I know (including my wife and her relatives) use it when writing their names in Latin characters or Hanzi. Generally they just write their given name as one word. According to Wikipedia, this is standard and you should write "Wang Xuiying" and not "Wang Xiu-Ying" for a member of the Wang family named Xiuying when rendering his name in Latin characters.

Chinese who travel generally give their family name last when speaking to Westerners, and many if not most of those who do so often or who live abroad adopt Western given names. Sometimes this is one that resembles their Chinese given name, sometimes not.

I was referring to the regional trains. Cross-country takes longer, e.g. Stockholm to Malmö is 4-5 hours. Last time I took that route (something like 6-7 months ago), they'd just started including wifi with a paid ticket. I can't recall whether or not it was unlimited. The free wifi on the regional trains just started a couple of months ago.

For me, Stockholm to Malmö or Copenhagen takes about the same amount of time by train or by plane. I'm about a 20 minute subway ride from Stockholm Central, I only need to be there maybe 10 minutes before departure, and the other end of the journey is the central station in the destination city. Whereas Arlanda airport is about 90 minutes away for me, I have to be there at least an hour before takeoff, and it's 30 to 45 minutes from Kastrup into the downtown area of either city, which pretty well cancels out any speed advantage from flying.

And when I go by train, I don't have to worry about my bag being overweight or containing anything I'm not allowed to take on an aircraft.

There are many vacuum-cleaner use cases and maximum power is not necessarily a requirement in all of them. I have a 2-in-1 floor/handheld Electrolux cordless that I'm rather partial to. No it's as powerful as the corded one, but I don't need something that big to nab a few stray bits of whatever from my desk top.

I also vastly prefer train travel to air travel within Europe.

Dunno about other parts of Europe, but at least here in Sweden, SJ have started providing free wifi on most of their regional and cross-country trains. You're limited to 200 MB on the regional trains, but that's plenty to surf and do email with for 1-2 hours, and hey, it's free.

"I live outside the US, so I can't rent or buy it even if I wanted to."

TFTFY.

My sarcasm detector is intact. Alas, that doesn't always guarantee that I've mod points when I see that someone else's is disabled.

That depends on the device and how it's set up.

Here's one such report, right here on Slashdot.

"Nuclear piles" is a synonym for "nuclear reactors" and South Korea definitely have some of these.

I don't now and never have used any of Netflix, Amazon Prime, Google Play*, or Hulu video. (*I've purchased one app through G-Play, a Chinese character training game.)

You didn't mention YouTube, which I do use occasionally. Although I find myself growing less comfortable with the idea of someone knowing every video I watch...

I probably watch on average 3-4 hours a week. Last 3 things I saw on YouTube that weren't just a few random song videos were Journey To The West (the 1986 version with Liu Xiao Ling Tong, freaking awesome even in Lo-Def and with crappy subtitles), Chicago's 1970 Tanglewood concert, and the original Kung Fu TV series. Current home intermittent video fare consists of the complete Three Stooges in order from 1935 onwards; I think I'm up to 1940 or so. Last 2 films I saw in a theatre were August: Osage County and Grace of Monaco. I occasionally watch the evening news and/or reruns of The Big Bang Theory or The Simpsons on Swedish TV.

Back to the main topic: I fear that my wife is probably going to make me go see this film whether I really want to or not. The things we do for love.
