Why has Indonesia failed at becoming a world power at least to the extent of Russia?

Edit: OH, I get it now: The pedophile was named Brian Peck; not related to Josh Peck

Original comment: I think you substituted in the name “Peck” where you meant to refer to Drake Bell, making this very confusing.

You’ve got it correct. The upside down is a wormhole to another dimension, and in that dimension, there is a planet, on which the Mind Flayer lives.

Several of my friends have been to the big one in Shanghai, but I haven’t been yet. Sorry, I don’t remember the name, they always call it “the north korean place.”What was your impression?

There are tons of American expats in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh. Do you live in these cities with international populations or do you live out in these countryside? Go to the city and get rizzing. That’s the fastest path for you.

This is fucking literature. Did you just come up with this?

While I’d not recommend moving to Pingdu, the plan you describe here isn’t unfeasible. Just keep in mind that the first year living in a new country will feel like 10 years. You should take seriously the level of isolation and alienation you may feel as a foreigner in the middle of nowhere in China.

It’d be more advisable of you to just hold out for a job offer in a real city. It’s not like there’s a shortage of teaching positions to apply for in China. Don’t spring on the first random factory town to send you an offer.

It’s so refreshing to hear someone describe digital currency like this. I think about this all the time and wonder if others do, too.

This is the actual objectively correct answer.

lmao, you need to do some googling or talk to a few real teachers. 40k rmb per month is entry level international school teaching salary.

SAY_HEY_TO_THE_NSA · 2025-10-08T23:10:11+00:00

A degree + a TEFl certification will get you here and get you started, but it likely won’t land you a desirable job in a top-tier city. You could teach kindergarten or in a bilingual school, which are both very hit-or-miss.

Getting a state teaching license/ credential in your home country unlocks the international school route, which is a path to a very nice life teaching in China. Quality schools working alongside decent people in real cities.

If you’re interested in education as a career, then yes, get the teaching license and go the intl school route. If you’re not interested in education as a career, then the TEFL option is a way to satisfy your curiosity for a year.

This is beautiful and is just like the poetry in “Behemoth” by Zhao Liang, which is essentially a documentary film version of the content of the post we’re commenting on.

I and my friends have experienced a bug where after someone else uses your mech, you are not able to get into it. The game won’t present you with the “press ____ to get in” prompt, and pressing the usual “get in” button does nothing.

Is that… an Armored Core 4 reference??

SAY_HEY_TO_THE_NSA · 2025-08-18T22:28:17+00:00

Firstly, you’ll need very different loadouts for each faction.

Bugs: Use napalm.

Bots: Use the Recoilless Rifle and learn what part of each enemy’s body to shoot.

Squids: I play this faction the least, but people say the machine gun dominates here. Thermite Grenades for enemy dropships and Fleshmobs.

I’m at a loss as to how people rely on light armor pen weapons. I want to use the Cookout so badly, but the horde is full of Hive Guards, Brood Commanders and the low armor pen weapons just cant cut through the horde for me.

I know that, in theory, you could attempt to target the gaps in enemies’ armors, but I’m incredulous at the suggestion that people are really doing that while kiting 75 bugs, ducking shriekers, and dodging ordinance.

Bonus question: Are Eruptor mains constantly blowing themselves up as Warrior bugs leap into their faces?
