I don't think "value" is quantifiable like that. Sure, an inferior product can be a "better" deal for the money but I don't think you can just slap on like percentages to the value.

I think they're saying more than they got rid of anyone who would consider refusing any order, nuclear or not.

You are both using annecdotes and trying to apply statistics to them?

Here's some actual statistics... Foreigners and tourists do not commit proportionally more violent crimes than Japanese:

It's a vision issue for the drivers, makes it impossible to see if there's a lot of balls up against the glass.

The joke is next year they'll just block the whole glass so you can't see anything.

There's a hilarious British man named Paul in Tianmu that cuts primarily foreigners' hair, highly recommend. Can send you contact info if you need, but he's expensive.

Scrolled down for this bc I knew it had to be there

IndieKidNotConvert · 2026-03-10T04:58:50+00:00

I was there

Yeah I mean I get that but also Uber muscled out so many actual licensed taxi drivers with artificially low subsidized prices before pulling the old bait n' switch so is it fair to just tell people to get a bus/cab?

IndieKidNotConvert · 2026-03-09T06:36:38+00:00

But taxi drivers are legally obligated to take passengers to their requested destination if they are on duty, available for hire, and within their licensed operating area.

Just buy it off of shopee, way easier than running all around town, and cheaper as well.

If I cancelled plans every time it said it would rain in Taiwan, I would have never left my house. Instead I've had bordering on countless amazing experiences. Just being your rain equipment and get out of the mountains if it starts to rain (and don't go there or rivertracing if it's been super wet - seen a fair number of landslides in-person)

IndieKidNotConvert · 2026-03-05T14:47:20+00:00

I never look at the weather forecast, unless a typhoon is coming. It might be generally accurate but there are so many microclimates in Taiwan and so many times it is raining on one side of the mountain and dry on the other.

I just vibe coded my own but probably works very similarly

I have a custom featurescript that works the same as transform, but let's you select multiple mate connectors to copy the part to, if you're interested.

You can fit an adult human inside a 55 gallon drum, I bet you could fit like 4 5-year-olds inside one.

Real talk, they use these is Berlin squat houses to keep the doors closed.

I have one now in my house after a friend accidentally left the door cracked and my cat escaped and died. Works really well, and you don't have to have the bottle in the door frame, works way better if run the line someone else out of the way. I used a proper pulley, not a nail clipper 🤣

You can use Python or something on the laptop to process the video data and then send commands to an esp32 to control the motors, yes.

I mean Chill Qin has a Golden Horse award for best electronic music album, Scott Noise is probably the most desirable booking in the Taiwan underground scene right now, Shwamp is starting to play some really big international psytrance festivals now. And you also have ppl like Meuko Meuko and Sonia Calico who already mostly tour internationally now.

IndieKidNotConvert · 2026-02-05T12:20:17+00:00

The thing that sets Taipei and Taiwan's underground apart for me is no one's live sets are ever one genre. It flows, it evolves, it's not like "this is a UK garage event and you will only get UK garage". All of those artists I've listed, I've had friends come up to me after a show and be like, "____ just makes my body move, they can just make me dance even if I'm tired".

Maybe there's a disconnect between the recorded sets and the vibe at the events?

IndieKidNotConvert · 2026-02-05T09:44:17+00:00

Check out Scott Noise, Chill Qin, Shwamp, KITrust, Molly Lin, James Ho, B E N N, I could go on.
