People are downvoting because they can't read Chinese. This comment is hilarious and 99% sarcastic.

"Hello, comrade Xiao Lin from Xiaomi! I saw your [friend] request on Roblox, but I don't think it's satisfying. Therefore, I've sent you a counter-proposal on Club Penguin. Please take a look as soon as you are able to. Your avatar is as handsome as comrade Xi Jinping. I look forward to our collaboration."

You're very close! I'll make some edits.

1  My life over here is terrible.
2  Work environment is not very good (yes you're correct), benefits are few
3  But don't need to worry, every day has only about 10 people getting heavily injured,
4  and I am very careful.
5  We opened a small store, business is not bad.
6  Although I am not very familiar with English, I can still sometimes 
7  (This line is adding a word to the previous line)
8  understand what the white people (we meant westerners) are saying. (Line 6 to 8 are parts of the same sentence)
9  Hope I can get some fame here! I will work hard here, and
10 will be careful with my health
11 Are you (plural) still good?
12 Very miss you (plural), wish we can meet again

(I am a Hongkonger, speaking Cantonese since the day I was born. The other translations using translation software aren't accurate because there is an added character at line 7.)

Checkmate

Every 1 minute, 3L of water gets heated by 50K. With a specific heat capacity of 4200 J / kg / C and density of 1 g / mL, it takes 3 x 4200 x 50 = 630000J per minute.

With a rate of 4.0 x 10^4 J / g for the heater, we can get the rate of combustion with 630000 / 40000 = 15.75 g per minute.

Any other color

Not only that. They also censor illegal use of drugs, and therefore the first episode of Detective Conan gets funny.

Recall the scene where he got fed the drugs. Now imagine that tube of drugs pixelated.

Keep working!

Hongkonger moment

I'm seeing so many posts about the hurricane meanwhile we get hit by multiple typhoons every year.

For our tropical cyclone hazard system, most people don't have to work under typhoon warning signal no. 8, but only if it happens before you get to work.

There used to be a joke about "Lee's Forcefield", where the observatory would often NOT put up no. 8 until after the stock market starts for the day, meaning most people have to work.

Therefore yes, you're going to work.
