It is now only a few days until my laptop gets a new charger, which means that it is now only a few days until I install Linux Mint for realsies for the first time and go absolutely got dang crazy customizing it into the most absolutely horrendous and ridiculous mix of 2000s nostalgia and weeb shit and communism and eclectic personal creativity and whatever else that I can think of. It's going to be glorious.

On your PC made in the PRC with semi-conductors from the ROC made from rare-earth elements mined in the PRC

If you REALLY want to farm that social credit you should try Kylin and UKUI because it is directly financed by the PRC's National University of Defense Technology which itself is affiliated with the Central Military Commission.

social credit

It doesn't exist though. :( I wish there was a tangible score I could farm to have China adopt me. :(

I am not good with languages in the slightest.

Yeaah, if you aren't a native speaker, extremely dedicated or naturally gifted at learning languages this could get you a hard time. :')

Like japanese is somewhat easy to pronounce but difficult to read because of it's multiple alphabets, korean is easy to read but hard to pronounce and chinese is hard in both reading and speaking.
