I want OreSkaBand to rebuild their lost band members, make a new album and tour again so bad. The last album you made took a little while to grow on me, but after playing it many many times I now think it's your best album. I've watched you ladies play twice in Japan and I wish I would have gone out of my way to see you ladies play even more times as you're my favorite band of all time.
Steam has a 23 year history of not screwing over their customers. They don't stop you from installing games that you bought no mater how many new PCs you buy or build. Nintendo, in time, WILL shut down their switch 2 servers and when this happens all of your game key cards will stop working.
@japan_nobunaga If you leave zero the staff there hates you, that's about it. I always leave a big tip but tipping culture is the worst. Just pay your staff well and whatever the prices, is the price.
@ENJU1123PIPI Always subtitles. Japan puts far more work into their audio than the American companies that pay to bring it over. Likewise, when Japanese people watch American movies, they really should watch it in English.
What are you talking about? He stopped making videos for the sake of making money. Only making the kinds of videos that he's personally interested in making for his own enjoyment. Then it hit him that he shouldn't be putting his child up on the internet because his son deserves privacy. Now he's helping people do self hosted AI. Do people not know that every conversation you have with AI will be stored for eternity and will be fore sale for the highest bidder, be used to train AI and will be handed over to many governments? He's trying to give people the power of AI while not handing any of your personal data over to anyone. It's exactly what we need.
@Dexerto They say if you live long enough you'll live long enough to become the villain, but our boy PewDiePie hits borderline retirement and becomes the hero we need.
Next time we are in Japan can we join you or join some other movement to help clean Shibuya? I don't want to take a youtube video showing off my good deeds, I just want to spend a night or a morning cleaning because we love Japan. I still think the solution is not fines but public trash cans. I think most people would gladly take their trash to a public trash can if there were ample trash cans around. To be clear, I'm not justifying littering but just view the problem like a math equation and take the emotions out of it. You would think Shibuya makes enough tax money to set up some kind of public trash service.
I'm married to a Japanese woman from Japan and love her dearly. Comparing the differences between Japanese and American culture is something we can often laugh about. I love Japan and have been there many times for months at a time. Japanese people feel stressed that they need to know the rules at all times. If they don't know the rules of every encounter, then they become stressed. (At least the best that I can tell.) Whereas Americans are far less rules oriented.
Being disingenuous is not seen as a virtue in America. Pretending to like someone, for example, when you really don't, is seen as cowardly and two-faced. Of course, every country has a level of putting on a public face. But in general, it's not seen as a good thing. Japan having two faces as a virtue makes it difficult to make real human connections when I'm in Japan. I would much rather have the honest when I talk to Japanese people so I can make a real connection with someone, something that seems very difficult to do in Japan.
