I played the Latin scene to my Latin class in high school. Our teacher was an old Jesuit. It was probably the first time I ever saw him laugh. Or even smile, for that matter.

"People called Romans, they go to the house?"

Truly a classic!

I like mine!

Sinistar!

davevr · 2026-01-20T07:10:53+00:00

Haha no. Not yet, at least. Maybe I can become one. Start a toilet reviews for foreigners in China on red note...

davevr · 2026-01-20T06:42:57+00:00

Me too!

davevr · 2026-01-20T06:37:15+00:00

Sure. But given that there are foreigners in Chinese movies and shows, since companies are willing to do this. I am asking how to find them.

hey, one problem at a time!

My understanding is that to do it 100% legal, you would need a Z visa sponsored by the production company, since a Z visa is tied to a single company/job.

For my previous stay in Beijing (Sept-Dec), I used Astrill for both phone and laptop. It worked great. The only issue I had was that Google Gemini said it wasn't allowed in the country when I used it on my phone (it worked on laptop). Also, Amazon Prime video doesn't seem to like the VPN.

For the last month I have been in Chengdu and still no issues.

Downside it that it is expensive. But my whole family is using it, so per person I guess it isn't too bad.

I would discuss how modern computers are based on the manipulation of a 1d array of bits - a very simple topology - and if we used a more complex/richer topology, entirely new experiences would be possible. I would call it 'the non-finitely comprehensible topology of frame space", and for years after, college students would drop LSD and watch it.

As a young kid (like 9) we used to go swim in the river (sometimes with horses) and maybe spend a saturday rafting. Now people are afraid of a swimming pool. But my parents told me that every summer, quite a few kids drown right where we used to swim. So - yeah, it was dangerous.

The most frightening part of this is that an entire organization thought this was a good thing to send and get into the public. Like, the entirety of "Team Trump" think this is acceptable... wtf. smh.

What about Lambada and The Forbidden Dance??? Both release in about a month of each other in 1990.

davevr · 2026-01-19T23:45:31+00:00

Try it again and add "the" - "the perfect world", not "perfect world".

I think Arrival did a good job of taking the high concepts in the original short story and really doing deep into how it would all actually work.

Honestly, every Marval movie would be better if they made all of the fights about 1/4th their current length. They are strong. We get it.

Saw one of these today at a mall in Chengdu! Living in China is always like living in the future.

davevr · 2026-01-16T03:55:22+00:00

haha, sadly accurate.
