A neat thing about living in Japan is that there are announcements and signs everywhere telling you to please keep your phone silent and to turn down the volume on your headphones so that noise doesn't leak out either. 'Silent mode' is literally called 'manner mode.'

That is unfortunate. I also installed Linux Mint last year, and although I've had weird little issues here and there, none of them were major, and overall I was able to use it exclusively for the last seven months. One issue I encountered when installing was actually because of Window's fault (during the drive partitioning portion), since I do dual-booting.
Hand sanitizer works great too!
I've heard stuff like that too. To be fair, if the United States were to resolutely defend Taiwan, China might not touch it, though there would still be a possibility, but at the least the US and Taiwan would likely win that war since they just need to keep Taiwan independent, not invade China.
How dare you use logic on my computer logic-related shower thought.
But yeah, I get what you mean. I had that thought at some point after posting. This is why I should probably just keep it in this silly thread and not write any philosophy essays soon.
I wasn't expecting to see a reference to one of my favorite anime of all time. Thank you for reminding me why it's peak.
Set only one alarm. Disable snooze. Accept the consequences.
Free yourself from the sisyphean alarm wakeup.
I was wondering why the sign said "Karuta Manufacturer," since a certain anime I watched always referred to a specific type of Japanese card game as 'karuta.' But I noticed 'karuta' sounds a lot like 'card,' and sure enough, found out karuta just means 'card' because it's a loanword from Portuguese, carta.
Some years ago, I decided to play all the Half-Life games and expansions available at the time after watching a video game history series on YouTube. I enjoyed them all.
You guys are getting buttons?
My Japanese microwave only has an imprecise knob to turn. It came free with the apartment, so I can't complain too much.
I suppose it prevents people from accidentally doing something like hitting 20:00 instead of 2:00 and starting a fire.

Major General Smedley Butler seemed like a fairly respectable guy. He was like the worst choice the Wall Street plotters could've picked. The man had already been denouncing capitalism and Wall Street, so of course he testified to Congress when rich people tried to get him to overthrow democracy.
