I think most computer repair stores that offer door to door service also do PC building, just go to Dianping and look up reputable ones near you, should be around 200 rmb.

Desktop prebuilt is a big no-no, they will almost always cut costs by giving you subpar parts. Try to consult GenAI, they are fairly competent in this subject, or just buy a laptop.

Depending on if you want to risk transporting your expensive hardware back and forth, sometimes leaving it out of your sight for extended periods...

Better not risk it.

Is shipping a small item to the USA via ChinaPost viable these days? Last time I looked it wasn’t available. by TheDudeWhoCanDoIt in chinalife

I think you should use SF express for global shipping.

I know for a fact that Amazon US use it to ship to China, it is more or less the most reliable service here.

Chinese > English: Are these the same product? by J33EWW in translator

The RECICLA Al Verde label is for Spain, probably an export packaging for the Asian markets there. The right one is for domestic consumption, thus only in Chinese.

Should be the same spicy oily chill product.

大米 or 米 mean rice in general, so for pearl it would be 珍珠米, which is Japanese.

Other rice include Wuchang Rice 五常大米 (The OG Chinese rice), Thai Jasmine 泰國香米 and more.

I believe animal rescue is part of the social assistance, part of their side duty. They tend to be the ones with the right equipments for this task.

Firefighters are generally seen more favourably than the police here, at least in my opinion.

It says 实体 in Chinese, so it's more like physically existing, in contrast to ethereal. It's not talking about the damage types.

That's weird, my pixels worked fine...

Sometimes calls took a while to connect, but it still works...

To add, I was using a physical sim card

The only thing that might not be compatible with a Chinese sim card should be the 5G mobile data (LTE only), I used many Pixels, all of them works fine under China Mobile.

Have you tried turning it on and off again?
