And people say China is not a dystopia

I imagine with that many people there are restaurants and services within.

Unfortunately this is not currently working (apparently QC itself is currently down, according to Cloudflare), but wow, I haven't thought about QC in quite some time. Thanks for the memories!

Probably a whole mall on the lower floors and vending machines amd shid

Yeah, the connection is intermittent right now. He's taking December off this year.

I wouldn't be surprised if the numbers were off by an order of magnitude. 1500 units with on average 2 people works out to 3000. Looking at the pictures, that sells like a more realistic number.

One could easily find oneself envious.

It was the pizza from space storyline that I linked.

[email protected]

Makes sense, thanks for elaborating!

I am the pizza delivery boy.

There's a good chance that apartment building has easy to find organized unit numbers that pizza delivery guy can understand. Building may even have multiple front entrances each with distinct addresses.

Yeah, I've delivered pizza in a city of over 100k people. The whole idea of an address is to figure out where the destination is down to the personal residence. Doesn't matter if the people are spread out in a single building or many buildings.

I didn't go knocking on every door any time someone ordered pizza to an apartment. Biggest concern about apartments were if they had a buzzer, if that buzzer worked, and if the code matched the unit number or would be easy to figure out based on the information provided. And if it wasn't, their phone number was part of the information provided.

Once saw a (German) documentary about this building. They have drop-off places on the ground floor where delivery drivers leave their goods in locked boxes. Payment and and locking/unlocking of the box is done digitally through phone.

Snopes has an article on it, and even they couldn't come up with a solid number.

Photos Show Apartment Building in China With 30K Residents?

The building was reportedly located in Qianjiang Century City, the central business district of Hangzhou in Zhejiang province.

That sucks. Ours come to the door. To me that's part of the point, you don't want to leave your home, so you order something, right?

[email protected]

That’s about 50 units per floor. Which does seem a bit low from looking at the pic. But 1000 per floor (to give you the 30k) seems way too high, unless the units are the size of broom closets.

Am I the only one who worries first about trash collection day than pizza delivery (wildly unpopular in China btw)?

[email protected]

Is that a refrigerator in the living room, and a tv over the stove?

[email protected]

Can’t imagine the wait times for elevators at whatever the start/end of normal working hours must be.

What a bunch of lazy fucks.
