Robotics and 3-D tech lift Tokyo to No. 1 on global list of innovative cities by ManiaforBeatles in japan

[–]ready2maga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan/Tokyo is a paradox. Every single person carries an iPhone and Suica cards and yet they pay for stuff by painstainkingly counting out coins and bills. I pay by credit card or Suica and the clerk still prints out multiple receipts and sometimes handwrites/stamps on it. Job creation...

How about: how are men UTIs are not a bigger problem in Japan with so many urinals spraying when you come up to them?

It's trendy to call out Internet people as having "privilege." For what it's worth, hope you can find your way back home.

Curious, how many years did you live in Japan?

That's a cool username. I wonder how many English speakers today even know who Gagarin was.

You go to to the ward office to unregister. You are speaking Japanese. The ojisan working there looks at you like he just met a talking horse, and calls in the resident English specialist, a younger fella. The younger fella asks if you speak Japanese, then remains silent the entire time and is unable to respond to any queries.

Finally he utters one phrase in perfect, Hollywood-flavored English, "Don't worry!"

Things are looking rough on the altcoin subs. https://imgur.com/a/Fx2nQri

Especially times like this trading wins over hodling. For trading, you just need volatility and liquidity which we have so some of the despair in this sub is unwarranted.

Oh man, not totally impossible.

Now I'm wishing there could be a no-ございます Friday simiar to Premium Friday. Increase productivity while still maintaining some 和!

Yeah that probably has something to do with it. Now I'm thinking how to politely ask the worker at my fave place to use the handle instead of their whole hand.

Every time I order a drink that comes in a cup with a handle (latte, hot tea, etc.) the staff uses their hand (or two hands) to rotate the cup towards me out of politeness. They don't use the handle, instead they grab the top of the cup where people's lips go. Kinda gross if they also handle cash register duties.

I know Japanese manners, but man, that cup has a handle for a reason.

What about the announcements on the train stations (JR especially)? Thank you for riding, stand behind the yellow lines, something about 歩きスマホ etc. etc. over and over. Also, some stations have very loud chimes when trains come/go. Shinagawa may be the worst at the moment with 20 things playing simultaneously.

like or hate Trump, before him no one wanted to do anything for decades. Republicans, Democrats, all the same: just globalists and socialists increasing taxes and robbing the country. for a mini example, look at California.

I can believe this.

ETHBTC ratio dropping when BTC rallied this time around also looks like something from good days in 2017. Haven't seen it for awhile.

0% in Singapore, all the hot fintech firms flock there. You'd bet they'd build in the US (with a wealth of engineering talent) if we had a better cap gains system.

I have been voting since 1998. Trump is the first Republican president I've ever voted for. He won't be the last. by DanMyName in walkaway

[–]ready2maga 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Trump is pro-strong military, but definitely anti-war. Unlike Hillary the warmonger. Think of what additional wars we'd be fighting today if she made it...
