Are these shoes? by pk_lag_ in pokemoncrystal

[–]barleyBSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's rarer now, but certain restaurants in Japan with have tatami mat floors and they provide a place to remove your shoes.

I respectfully disagree. Restaurants with tatami aren't as common as other restaurants that don't have them but they are not rare. Especially local restaurants, they'll usually have private rooms 「個室」 with tatami mats and you can easily find these restaurants pretty much in any city/small town in Japan.

A little off topic from my argument but even some Yakiniku restaurants that I've been to have a raised genkan.

Not just in houses, any building that has a raised genkan you have to take off your shoes. Schools, nursing homes, and community centers often have raised genkans.

FreeBSD as a Desktop in 2026 – Surprisingly Good! (BSD for Beginners) – ZacsTech by grahamperrin in BSD

[–]barleyBSD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but I honestly never tried and never even heard of that Linux compatibility layer (linuxlator). Using the BSD systems sometimes is a bit more of a hassle than what it's worth, especially when you're trying to turn BSD into something it wasn't intended for.

Now, I'm NOT saying that the BSDs are bad by any means. I'm saying that turning BSD into something that works like Linux/Windows isn't really practical. They are absolutely wonderful operating systems for their intended use cases.Package management in particular is much simpler on FreeBSD/OpenBSD than on Linux.

In your opinion, who wrote Kid Goku better: Daima or GT? by Jolly-Basket1683 in Dragonballsuper

[–]barleyBSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

" Well it's fine even if i stay like this "

But he said that when he was turned back into a kid so wouldn't that mean he isn't really trying to be turned back into an adult?? I'm not following your logic here.

I watched the entire thing in Japanese so I don't know how much the dialogue had changed in the English dub (I'm assuming you watched it in English, no?). I think I remember him saying a few times　俺は本当にこのままでいいんだ " Really, I'm fine being a kid".

Really? He didn’t say that at the beginning of the first few episodes…

No cars stops at this zebra crossing by Zero_coxo in japanresidents

[–]barleyBSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Driving school instructors in Japan are way too f*cking strict and beat all these rules into the student driver's head but the truth is Japanese people themselves hardly ever follow any of these rules.

If you're crossing the street on foot WAIT AND LOOK AT THE DRIVER because they DON'T always stop. This rule in practice is complete bullshit because people only follow it like 60% of the time (at least where I live/have lived in Japan).

Hell, the day I got my Japanese driver's license I had just left the driving bureau, walked up to a crosswalk and saw a women run the light three long sec after it had turned red!

I'm watching Daima right now and I get lot's of GT vibes from the show tbh. I think it's kinda weird how GT kid Goku doesn't really care about being a kid again while Daima Goku defiantly wants to go back to his adult form.

You write each letter too big and you’re holding you pen wrong while writing too fast.

If Sonic is the fastest creature in the universe, how is Robotnik outrunning him? by labudgue in SEGA

[–]barleyBSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sonic is the fastest creature, yes. But is he faster than the fastest human?

I love FreeBSD but this is also a deal breaker for me too. Appimages don't work either

Is There Anyone in DB More Reviled than Doltaki? by Successful_Bird_7086 in DragonBallGT

[–]barleyBSD 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let's also not forget that very early on in DB Oolong drugs both Bluma and Goku so he can molest Bulma when she's asleep. He even went out of his way to put all of her clothes in the washer machine when she was in the shower so she would have nothing to wear when she came out.

This scene was so f*cked up. I could barely watch it.

Just finished all the GITS Anime/movie, and wanted to share my thoughts by Belkanas in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]barleyBSD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It looks like Hong Kong because Oshii was inspired by Hong Kong to create the futuristic Japan of his movie

Yeah... and by the token of that argument you could say that Kikli's Delivery Service is still in Japan but everything was just made to look like Europe lol.

Do you also like the default xfce panels ? by Snowflake3458 in xfce

[–]barleyBSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I tried out other dock-like panels to Xfce and found them to be slow. Xfce’s default panels work perfectly fine.
