I mean, I immigrated to Japan fairly easily. If you have a university degree and speak good English, there are visas to be had. IT as well. I do find I have a tougher time since I came over in my 30s, compared to the younger people coming here.
gross. Also, the reason people aren't having kids isn't due to a lack of people fucking, despite what some articles may say; it's entirely related to societal issues that need complex fixes. That said, three of my friends have had kids in the last couple years.
Kinda. In the two-party first-past-the-post system, they were still not convinced they should vote which could actively make their futures worse. Knowing why that alone wasn't a motivating factor (unless this is all people who want to vote AGAINST Harris (which I highly doubt)) is definitely worth exploring.
A lot of it seems to be "third spaces" (or maybe it's "places"?) going away; it went from work, home, and [church, moose, lions, whatever] to mostly just work and home (or work and work and home) for many and this had a lot of negative impacts, I think.
Yes but also no as Steve von Trig discovered it a thousand years before and of course gets none of the credit.
/ the Pythagorean Theorum is far older than Pyth.
Well, do we know which one it was?
I 100% agree with this.
Some of those same reasons are the reasons voter ID laws as often implemented (i.e. without anyway to ensure that everyone is actually able to get an ID given that it takes documents, time, and money that not everyone can spare) can negatively impact the same portions of the population as well.
A lot is still relevant, I think. Additions would probably be on facial-recognition-avoidance and perhaps avoiding surveillance more broadly. As opposed to phone phreaking and other telco stuff, probably more internet and programming-focused things would exist.
I've taken and passed practice tests before. A lot of Americans who may be down-voting may remember things like Jim Crow laws and how tests were widely used to disenfranchise voters, particularly non-white or otherwise "the wrong kind of" voters, in the past and it still leaves a bad taste.
Ah yes, things that look the same must be the same. Much science.
Every time I think I've managed to erase NetWare from my brain, someone has to drag it back up angry fist-shaking
In Japan, there are a couple of chains that exist and smaller restaurants (basically all in the areas where foreigners are and moreso near US militar bases). "Taco rice" is a local take that is basically taco ingredients served over rice instead of in a taco shell. Almost all of the places are adjusted to Japanese tastes by default, so a lot lower on the spice. Lots of foreigners living here end up going to one of a couple of places (two of which are basically Chipotle knock-offs for however "Mexican" you might consider that) or giving up and making their own. We did get Taco Bell a few years ago (again "Mexican") which has a more limited menu. I wasn't impressed, but I never cared for US Taco Bell, either, but it had lines lasting hours the first days/weeks it was open.
For your gandfather, could it be dementia? Personality change, including dropping of inhibitions, can be signs of that.
I'm seeing a screenshot of this so I'm pretty sure she's alive, but she might be an AI or a zombie.
I think I may have seen a video or two. Specifically, the content on the Japan subreddits is more about navigating very specific visa or legal or financial issues that generally require tailored advice.
The only thing I still go to reddit for are the communities based on living in Japan and financial stuff in Japan. They never wanted to move over and have super useful info by people living here for decades that really help visa, legal, and financial issues.
I think the only binaries I have are tiny samples used by a couple of tests in that repo. I generally try to avoid them altogether.
device/battery/bike charger?
Edit: or emergency phone, maybe; we have a similar thing on the Japanese expressway system with phones.
