Chances are low but: anyone here who knows more about running digital ads in China or knows where to get some solid information about it?

The locks on the doors in my apartment building have been designed so if you lock the door on one side, it cannot be unlocked from the other. I've a friend who once accidentally locked his GF in the apartment when he left for work, and she was trapped until he could return to let her out again. Bonus points for them living on the second floor, so there are bars over the outside of all their windows. It's one of the worst fire hazards I have seen and I've no idea who thought it was a good idea to design locks in such a manner.

That'd be extremely illegal in Europe.
The door to my apartment is classified as "break in delaying" which means any lock needs to be fashioned in a way that allows people inside of the apartment to be able to unlock it without a key at any time.

Chinese fisherman operating in the ~~Philippine's waters~~ Nine-Dash South China Sea water saw this bad rear end endangered Whale Shark and thought about how hard their dicks could get if they could eat its fin in some soup. RIP, Mr. Biggest Fish on the Planet.

Looks even like kiddie whale shark :rip:

Authoritarian socialism like maoism and marxism-leninism and whatever juche is arw garbage but democratic socialism can and does work and is good. The prc is cancer and every thing russia touched and professed was as well.

Username post combo level is insane.

But I agree, Democratic socialism is great. But if you look at most European states people seem to rather vote for parties that gently caress over everyone as long as said party sticks it to "the immigrants" than vote for a party that'd improve their lives.

Extremely important duck update, going through some duck pictures she thinks the closest is the muscovy duck, like this

Except its body was bright blue and green and it's red fleshy mask extended to "a red hat, but not feather, it was meat". There's a lot of types of muscovy ducks, and she said she's only ever seen this exact coloration in Canton so it's possible it's just a weird sort of cantonese muscovy duck with a meat hat.

Some turkey breeds could kinda look like that

Nobody could've foreseen that building a dam of that size instead of several smaller ones would create problems down the road.

Me: "Hello, could you please find the serial number of your blahblah server on site in Shanghai."
Chinese IT person: "I don't have logon."
Me: "Yeah, I know, but it should be on there physically."
CIP: *sends two grainy pictures of our home made labels on the front.* "Is this it?"
Me: "Uhm, no, here's link to a page explaining where to find it on various models. I don't know which model you have."
CIP: *sends picture of model.*
Me: *with the patience of a saint* - "Well, then you need to look on the back, in the middle."
CIP: *sends picture of serial number."

No reason to complain, they could've unplugged everything in the process of finding it. :byoscience:
