Ooooh, look at “I can sleep once and only once per day and never for longer than a day” over here ;P :)

I was wondering if it were tied to recent court decisions in Korea to allow someone to sue over wartime labour, but it looks like this has been going on a lot longer.

I mean, LOAF was a thing (Linux on a Floppy) that had basic functionality even as most distros were downloaded or on CD. I can’t imagine anyone still develops it, though.

The term of a US president in the early 1980s.

They partner with an enemy of the US who now gets a presence in mainland North America at the US’s doorstep making infiltration to the US, etc. even easier.

1 + false ? (I have no idea in which order JS would evaluate things as I rarely have to touch that language much anymore)

I oppose the death penalty in very nearly every circumstance. I think that prisons should be more about rehabilitation that just brutish punishment (but the punishment exists at least in part to avoid extra-judicial attacks by the victims who feel the perpatrator was not justly punished). Some people, of course, cannot be rehabilitated and, in that case, I would lean toward life in prison.

I’ve been living in Japan the better part of a decade and don’t have strong opinions on anime or the like (I couldn’t tell you what KyoAni has made)

The netuyo are probably whinging about it, but I stay away from those corners of the internet. Osaka Naomi and others have faced issues as well. Mostly, from what I remember, it’s been sports competitions where this comes up

die unless $keyword == “unless”;

Tons of places do not have bidets. Hell, numerous places here still have squat toilets. I guess they are common in many tourist spots and stations in bigger cities. I have some occasional digestive issues and tend to know where toilets with washlets are in places I frequent.

This is totally not my experience. Maybe you have a bad bidet and/or dietary issues?

Schools in Japan only have whole milk (except in cases of students with allergies or the like) and are doing far better on obesity. Whilst I drink milk probably once every few months and could mostly not care if I never had it again, I don’t think milk is the right place to look.

In many ways yes. Japan has its own brand of racial superiority which is why I just found it a bit weird they’re going for nazi shit. It could also just be that they heard and liked a song, but I kinda doubt that this is the case.

Weird. Lots of purchasers in Japan. All have Japanese-looking names, but who knows if some of those are real.

People aren’t not having kids here because of university. Fix work-life balance and daycare access in the bigger cities if you want more kids. Better, try to incentivize spreading out from Tokyo and revive the old towns out there. Edit: also, stagnant wages and inflation

Good. In my wife’s day, she had to wear skirts even in awful weather (she grew up in an area in northern Tohoku where they got enough snow to have heated streets in some places) and had to change before entering school or risk getting in trouble. She wasn’t allowed to wear tights or leggings under her skirt. Now, at least from the couple of younger people I’ve seen and talked to, around here some (all?) school at least let all students wear slacks these days. There’s definitely pressure that some young women feel to wear skirts even if they don’t want to (not just based on gender identity, but pressure to fit in with the group, etc.) but that’s probably another topic.

Japan is YYYY-MM-DD, but when we talk about dates where a year is unneeded, we just cut it off which leaves it in the US standard format of MM-DD, much to the annoyance of non-US foreigners living here.

I don’t think he can be in a relationship with god. Assuming protestant, and often evangelical, there’s a trinity of which Jesus is part and whom they consider too woke

Same. I work primarily in Go and a little bit of Rust these days, but I still throw together a Perl script every year or two to automate something without needing to install something else on the machine or whatnot.

I thought the name sounded super familiar, but I had to look it up. My dad was into BBS and CompuServ in the '80s. He eventually got AOL, which is where I got started with NNTP. I really need to get his history on these things. I know that, when I was super young in the early '80s when they divorced, he was often spending a lot of time online. I’d really like to know more about that era as my memories are scattered and fractured.
