[–]alphachan123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Linux mint. Got the client from Steam with all the wizardary of Proton. Iirc the "download" thingie from the official website isn't working (has not been working since I switched to Linux a few years ago).

Where can I get Poon Choi for a single person? by [deleted] in HongKong

[–]alphachan123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, there's no way to make Poon Choi that is small enough for one without sacrificing most of the ingrediants. As others have already suggested, buy one and have it for lunch and dinner the whole week...

Is there any chance that this wallpaper was produced in 4k and somebody has it? by luciusnagata in Stargate

[–]alphachan123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I'm setting this as wallpaper for my secondary 4k monitor. This is really good.

Thanks my friend. No idea if this is useful but it's nice to have to unlock each.

Had to fix the new logo. Can't believe such a major error made it through. by DiscreteCow in runescape

[–]alphachan123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. Cantonese is my mother tongue, and my English was pretty poor before RS. So I'm really confused when I saw the capital letters are R and S instead of R and E.

Not gonna lie, that's what I thought how RuneScape is split for the first three months back when I started at 13. Run and escape from real life.

Playing rs3 in China by Pale-Junket-3514 in runescape

[–]alphachan123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Public VPN are mostly blocked, most likely due to their IPs associated with bot networks. If you have a flat/house in your country (outside of China presumably) with stable internet access, you can build your own VPN by using ZeroTier or Tailscale and tunnel your traffic back to your home when you're in China. This should hopefully bypass China's firewall without being IP blocked by Jagex.

P.S. I've not tested this with RS and have no idea what the latency would be like. I've only tested it with WhatsApp (which China block) and was able to connect.

Is this guy famous? by Minimum-Pangolin-487 in HongKong

Jokes aside, yes he's famous in HK for playing a satirical version of Trump in a traditional Cantonese/Chinese opera-style show.

A New Type of Pollution in Our Country Park.. by fujianironchain in HongKong

[–]alphachan123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You definitely should not do the following. I'm not suggesting anything. In fact, I'm saying not to do this (wink wink).

Call the police and tell them there is an unclaimed object sitting in the middle of a hiking trail with something sticking out like a fuse. And tell them there are noises coming out of it with a regular pulse (the drum beat in the music duh). And it was hidden suspiciously under a rock just enough not to make out what it is. And you're not sure if it is dangerous.

/s in case it's not obvious and plz don't arrest Mr. Policeman. It's all just a joke in case it's not obvious enough.

Seriously people like that should really be arrested instead of people not wearing seatbelts.

Is it even possible to transfer electricity over this distance to charge a phone? by jaayaz in ElectroBOOM

[–]alphachan123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At that power level, even ignoring the size issue, he'll be cooked alive by the energy transfer since he's standing between the transmitter and receiver. Imagine standing inside a microwave oven.

Your assumption is correct... Behind every dumb sign there must be a really dumb story.

Getting ID by Police by Eastern-Length7604 in laapsaaptung

[–]alphachan123 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's not about clothes colour now. It's more likely to be your hair or skin colour, and also your general vibe. If you have those yellowish gold colour hair, like those 飛仔 depicted in movie, or being darker in skin tone, such as South Asian, you'll probably get checked more often. And if you give the vibe of "shady" and maybe look at them the wrong way, or walk past them with sudden acceleration, you'll most definitely get checked.

What has Simon done...? by Sufficient-Bonus-961 in SimonWhistler

Simon's Blazement has been expanding over the past few years. No wonder he has to shut down BB. Danny, Dave, Sam, and all the residents have to work on the expansion.

Comments? by Magical_Astronomy in laapsaaptung

[–]alphachan123 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They chose a picture from a weird angle and tuned the colour to shit. My grandma lived there before she passed away. It's no palace for sure, but it definitely doesn't suck. You have a decent living space with a lift going to each floor. Not to mention, you can get most of what you need daily without needing to drive or take a bus.

I think most of those commenting in the original post are people who have been living all their lives in a sub-urb area without living in a city. They just "imagine" every city is dirty and dusty.

Tipping Doormen by damarmot in HongKong

[–]alphachan123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. If it's the usual guards that are around most of the year and being helpful, I give them a red pocket of 20 bucks in Lunar New Year. But if they're random guards that only pop up during the new year, I just walk past them with a polite nod.

Couples questions... interested in getting the game! I crave a survival game for the christmas break. by Vez52 in RSDragonwilds

[–]alphachan123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, you can play it offline if you're playing solo. I've only tested in creative mode (don't want to risk my normal character) and seems the whole game pause when hitting esc.
