While you can absolutely make such interface on Linux, this is most likely a modified XP.

If it’s Russian windows I’d at least expect a wallpaper of a guy being autodefenestrated by some dark figure.

Local media outlets, including the state-run Shanghai Securities News, on July 7 reported Gao’s death, citing anonymous sources. Shanghai Securities News cited an illness, while screenshots of messages bearing his name circulating on social media indicated he had cancer.

It’s pretty well known China lies about their GDP, it’s something close to half of what they claim. Most statistics from China are utter bullshit, they say they only had 60k COVID deaths and it’s estimated at over a million in reality.

China is all about saving face, it’s kinda like a toddler that lies about everything and everyone just goes “that’s nice sweetie” while patting their head and they think everyone believes them.

As an American, I can’t imagine how horrible it is to have a leader who lies about everything. It must be rough for those people in China.
