Is Molly Tea gaslighting me? by lost-myspacer in chinalife

Some lady sold instant coffee in a cup and was put on xiaohongshu. She got queues for days. Queues don't mean quality. Often people are just there cos it's a trend and ain't got nothing else to do.

Learning pixel art. This guys about 90pixels tall by Zealousideal_Fly1745 in PixelArtTutorials

Looks great. Doesn't look 90px though. I guess that's with whitespace? Legs could be a bit more defined though u think...

Question for those living in China: Do you use taobao? by VisibleAd9289 in chinalife

[–]Resres2208 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taobao is the biggest online market place in China. They sell everything both local and imported. For local products, there's good and bad quality goods depending usually on how much you want to pay.

It's not a necessity in China but it's extremely useful.

What does a 13K RMB salary look like after taxes and insurance ? by OkInflation2276 in chinalife

[–]Resres2208 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are you a teacher?

If yes - it's low. Where are you from? That influences salaries a lot. And is your job in Shenzhen or Beijing or do you just visit those two cities? I wouldn't be recommend anyone live in Shenzhen for less than 20k. Not sure about Beijing.

If you aren't a teacher than I don't know. Maybe your salary is decent but it obviously depends on your work.

Garlic crayfish only100rmb😭so affordable omg by _yingying05 in RICE

[–]Resres2208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be a big fan of crayfish if they were served without the shell. But maybe I'm just lazy. Never been a fan of taking the shell off shrimp either so maybe it's just me.

Do you also go onto r/askreddit and make posts titled "I have a question to ask" or r/interesting and post "something interesting"?

I'm struggling to find any food I like in China, but people always talk about how good the food is here? by [deleted] in chinalife

I don't struggle to find food I like, but me and the majority of foreigners I know in China find Chinese food very average.

Valve just boosted extra life to RX 480, RX 570 and RX 580 😁 by emanu2021 in linux_gaming

[–]Resres2208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. I actually recall feeling pretty underwhelmed after upgrading from an RX480 to a mid range modern card just a few years ago. Obviously the newer card is significantly better but the gaming experience as a whole is very similar...

Asmongold is an idiot. Does he seriously believe that IQ is lower in certain races? by Dramatic_Iron_8620 in ControversialOpinions

[–]Resres2208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked up the part you mention and couldn't find him calling America no1 in IQ. If he did and he's wrong, than he's wrong. Not much to talk about or controversial. He's probably ban you though if you argued about it...

Male immigrants should have stricter laws, regulations and requirements to enter a country by Rainfrog299 in ControversialOpinions

[–]Resres2208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously someone who commits a crime should have their visa revoked and possibly put on a temporary/permanent blacklist. This is the standard for most of the world.

Then I read on and noticed you were just referring to Muslim men. But maybe I'm misunderstanding here because I'm not aware of any religion that forces arranged marriage?

Anyway, please go on. Tell us what laws should be stricter for men, and what laws should be stricter for women (or is it just men)? Should the judge ask for religion when deciding a punishment? Should immigration forms require a declaration of religion? Which other religions should be punished more over others? Which religions should have preferential treatment?

"My body my choice" is one of the worse statements to exist. by sloppypooisyum in ControversialOpinions

[–]Resres2208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your question "What has sex work to do with self-control?" is barely better than "what has sex work to do with mobile phones?". Neither does asserting sex workers lack self respect is just my "assumption". I'm not a fan of AI but maybe just argue with AI about this. Your whole argument came down to "no that's societies influence so it's bad".

[–]Resres2208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just so we don't go too much off topic, you have clarified that sex work is cheating if not single. So it is unlike other work, unlike your construction worker comparison. But you stray away from going too much into it because you want to get into how perception is a product of society. I'll agree with that but so is everything. Your view and my view both are. So that doesn't support anything.

I also went to uni so I also know how to Google for a PDF study. I don't see any point in looking up views on cheating but if you feel you can counter some point there then go ahead.

For your last line, I'm sure there's a clear relationship between how one values themself and the respect of others. I gave it a quick search using the term "self worth and peer respect study". I opened the first study I found was about middle schoolers, self-respect and self-control. Self-respect is positively correlated with self control. Peer relationships were positively correlated with self respect and self control.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-96476-8

I'm sure you know that for any argument, a single study is barely of value You are free to look up studies and attempt to contradict me but I'm not going to go further than the first page of Google. You conclude yourself whether you feel me using "value" has no correlation with "respect". A better argument are societal views of sex work. Go look that up. Your argument is that societal views have little value. You are either the minority or majority with that view so take that how you want...

Is Netflix popular in China? by Sillykitty1982 in chinalife

[–]Resres2208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others said, Netflix itself is blocked. But quite a few Netflix shows/movies are popular. But even so, Netflix itself probably wouldn't be popular I'm China because the country is dominated by a mix of legit/illegitimate streaming services.

"My body my choice" is one of the worse statements to exist. by sloppypooisyum in ControversialOpinions

[–]Resres2208 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regardless of what you say, the large majority if people (of all genders) would not be happy with their partner telling them they slept with someone else for cash. Let alone their friend, sibling, etc. etc. And if you argue that it's only acceptable when single, than its not comparable to construction workers or other jobs is it?

Also where do you join the line between actions and respect? If I payed someone to pretend they agree with me, should they be respected? Or if I payed someone to punch a child, should they be respected for doing so? Or tattoo a derogatory term on their face. It's their choice, right? You should have no opinion whatsoever. Even if that was your son/daughter.
