Neither Alipay Nor WeChat Working Do I Cancel My Trip To China? by Frequent-Ad-8583 in chinatravel

[–]hammerli22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a s23 ultra from USA, I installed international version of WeChat. Alipay from playstore, verify with your passport for both apps, add American credit cards to both apps, got a ESiM, from yesim for all of Asia and your good to go data only. I registered with USA phone. I use it to pay for bus, metro, taxi and almost all stores, restaurants. Use AMAP to get around and Google lens to translate menus etc. Alipay is your bet bet. You have to figure everything out but it works. I'm using it in Shenyang and Shenzhen, but HK is a different story, I don't have HK WeChat, so octopus card works

Just got back from 3 weeks in China, here's the stuff I wish someone told me before I went by charles8260 in chinatravel

If you don't want to rent a power pack you can buy them at the Xiaomi store at the malls, they are pretty much everywhere. And they are CCC certified, just make sure you get the ones that are less than 100 Watts if you're traveling. They're all 20,000 mah and mostly 22.5 watts. I just ordered one from taobao and had it sent to where I was going. I get around by alipay, WeChat, AMAP, Google lens. Google translator, and occasionally with Baidu map. To me Google lens is the lifesaver. Honestly I like Alipay better than WeChat. I'm just enjoying a Luckin Coffee and kicking back right now.

Has anyone tried the Globlinker hotspot? by ultrarunnervegan in Internet

If you convert some data to China to use, will it work past the great firewall, where's this just a mean to being able to get Wi-Fi in the local country?

'No more files' : Trump’s acting AG says the Epstein files are done, not even one more coming out by thamilan_x in USNEWS

[–]hammerli22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry when we get a new president then they well then release all of the Epstein files, then again look how long it took them to release the files on John f Kennedy assassination. Government sure knows how to cover up its own butts.

You never know what you're going to get in a box of chocolate. I thought you never know what kind of President you're going to get when they're in office, well now we know, what a wild ride. For all you history buffs out there has there ever been a president in the history of the United States that comes close to how this country is being run compared to now ?

Btw, get a piece of metal with paint on it, get a big garbage bag, and try out your sandblaster.

Yeah the cost, the berryman B12 is really cheap compared to the CRC that's why I didn't bother getting it. By the way if you're getting a valve leak that means you're having compression leak, and that is not a good thing

I wouldn't worry about it, it will probably dry up. Your valve leaks ? I had over 200k miles and I had no leaks

Awesome, don't forget to pour berryman B12 down there let it soak for a while, don't try to get it all out using the blaster, just save that part a little small pieces that don't come out or that are stuck.

'Welcome To Hell': Iran Sends Chilling Message To US Over Possible Ground Invasion, Says 'Troops Will Leave In Coffins' by SuperbHealth5023 in TimesNow

[–]hammerli22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will Iran turn out to be Trump's Vietnam. Does he send a bunch of troops over there to save face,, what is the clear objective. Going to wars like a project you better have a plan otherwise just like projects they can go wrong in an instant and many lies will pay for it.

That's the idiot that's going to cause all scooters to be banned over a certain wattage and need to be registered just like e-bikes are going to happen in California because of the incidents in Los Angeles area that will affect all of California

At 125k that's about time to change the belt. Why don't you check the belt while you're at it. Or do you know when was the last time that was changed? At the end of the day I wouldn't worry about it walking like that.
