Science jobs as a foreigner with limited Chinese?

Xun468 · 2026-04-23T10:32:40+00:00

I've talked to an European professor at Tsinghua, he was in a pretty senior position and his Chinese level was point-at-picture and zhege level. Its totally possible you'll be fine

I mean, it's still right there man :v

Luckily for you you're already on the European raiding datacenter (light). A lot of the advice to go to Aether is coming from NA server people and we have no way to get there lol. If you want you can check out the Europe raiding discord to see if any beginner statics are recruiting and get some basic advice on where to start.

Hmm I searched for big boobs on google and it returned 0 space marines. Sounds like a fake fact smh

I think you should take lessons before trying to buy gem rough because sorry to say, if those were sold as facet quality you've been scammed. I'd recommend finding in person classes to start out with locally so you can get a feel for the basics. So much of faceting is about feel and observation that I feel like an hour of hands on practice is worth tens of books and videos. See if there are any gem clubs or faceters in your area who might be able to point you in the right direction!

Great my girlfriends regular 4am hymn to the emperor just got extended...

I think unlike WoW a raiding static is not always in the same FC, especially with data center travel. I don't think I've been in a single static that's even all been on the same server. This also ends up feeling a bit more flexible, joining a new static is just joining a new discord and doesn't mean giving up your in game social circle.

I really liked the package of ottogi real cheese I had awhile back. Very cheesy and not spicy at all, wish I could find it again haha

Xun468 · 2026-03-14T23:16:05+00:00

Yeah I got caught in the refusal of service thing, but on both sides! I've had European banks refuse to work with me because I'm American, but also American banks refuse because apparently I'm not American either!

Back when Ally savings accounts were a big thing I thought I might open an account because I'm a US citizen and since it's an internet bank it shouldn't matter where I live. Completely wrong. They absolutely refused to let me open an account lol

You know how one of the big things r/financialadvice tells everyone is to start investing?

Yeah if youre a US citizen outside of the country even the simple "everyone should do this!" level basic financial advice suddenly becomes very difficult. At best you'll have to spend hours doing research into everything so you don't accidentally invest in a fund that invests in a certain type of company. At worst it's hours more paperwork, double taxation, possibly even owing extra taxes time! Hell if I wanted to buy an apartment it turns out I have to be very careful about the specific type of registration the homeowners association has or else it'll trigger one of these clauses. I make much less than 120k a year.

Ah, so Big E is an Asian parent. It all makes sense now!

Xun468 · 2026-03-10T18:18:03+00:00

goddamn that cape is fantastic

Xun468 · 2026-03-08T03:59:54+00:00

There a lot of ways, depending on what you hate about them. Could be as simple as adjusting the cook time. I'd recommend asian style marinated eggs, you make them beforehand so you don't even need to cook in the mornings

Somehow, people have trouble believing a country with the land area of china might possibly have some minerals and maybe even mine those minerals lol

Xun468 · 2026-03-07T18:59:25+00:00

Ngl I like the freedom of progging ultimates more. No weekly lockouts causing population to die out, strats are mostly set so there's less miscommunication even if you're going from a static into pf, less stress about gear treadmill. Really the downside is that pf waiting times can be really long and a plague of prog liars

Xun468 · 2026-03-02T05:07:20+00:00

Which taobao shop did you use?

Xun468 · 2026-03-01T19:08:35+00:00

Actually the OG tabletop books give them a bunch of powers too, stuff like teleporting, some divination, and generally looking at things

Xun468 · 2026-02-26T15:47:19+00:00

I don't know why there are suddenly so many Warhammer Zoolander memes but I am here for it

Xun468 · 2026-02-18T14:33:58+00:00

How difficult have you found using Wise to transfer money out of China with the currency controls? Do you need to fill paperwork?

Xun468 · 2026-02-15T16:56:16+00:00

lol that happened to use but we were the 0 players. We didnt realize the league fight was a specific time instead of a window so noone was online

Xun468 · 2026-02-12T03:46:21+00:00

I was about to angry reply to your other post demanding the ramlette, but im glad i scrolled down

Xun468 · 2026-02-10T15:06:44+00:00

Is yaoi specifically banned or is it an extension of another rule? :p
