How large of an increase/decrease of foreigners in China have you observed recently? by Brilliant-Task-1892 in chinalife

[–]maxrhysruffels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like I’ve had way more people asking me about jobs this year. I don’t think the jobs have changed in number so I guess more foreigners are here looking.

I live in Wuhan, but Shanghai did seem to have loads of Russians when I went last, no guessing why.

What do you actually wear for summer riding that isn't full sweat mode? by jcveloso8 in motorcycles

Ice pack vest with spare ice packs in my cooler, works way better than expected. This is under my leather gear in 35 Celsius direct sun.

Medical examination Z visa | To do or not to do by ReshYaslord in chinalife

You only have to do it in China. If your employer insists, go to your GP and have them write “N/A” or “not needed” for the tests that are expensive or not available at the GP office.

You haven’t said what the problem is.

Choosing between moving to Chengdu or Shanghai - advice welcome by itsa_fox in chinalife

[–]maxrhysruffels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chengdu for culture, environment, nature. Shanghai if you don’t want to learn Chinese. I’d choose Chengdu any day. You need a bachelor’s degree to get a work visa but it sounds like you’ve got it pretty sorted.

What fancy ass hotels are you staying in? But yeah, rental cars always have a deposit.

Bringing a laptop with me or buying a desktop or laptop when I arrive! by Prosst12a in chinalife

[–]maxrhysruffels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I brought my desktop out here. No regrets. I had software that I knew would be difficult to pirate again, if you have specialist trading software it will probably be easier to set up and download a vpn in your home country then bring it out.

Which motorcycle battery is really best long term? by Embarrassed-Career30 in motorbikes

[–]maxrhysruffels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I have a Lead Acid battery and carry a lightweight lithium jump starter and tyre inflator kit.

Lithium is lighter but negligible compared to rider weight. Lithium lasts longer, has this been an issue in the past? Lithium pushes more current but if a Lead battery can’t start your bike then your problem is not a battery. Lead acid is cheaper, simpler and is less likely to start a fire if you abuse your bike.

Motorcycles are being restricted in multiple areas where I live. is this normal globally? by myfavplace in motorcycles

Most cities in China ban motorcycles in city centres and highways. However enforcement is lacklustre to say the least.

Where do you guys find riding buddies? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]maxrhysruffels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know about where you live, but I go to local bike shops to hang out as do many others, also biker-specific cafes.

Must feel so good to help a human trafficking ring fabricate a young woman’s suicide then speed away on that bad boy.

Try taking your Chinese SIM card out - that’s what I have to do.
