Canadian-American software developer living in Japan since 2015. Into gardening, DIY, permaculture, etc.
In Japan, you can be on the hook (sued) for knowingly engaging in a relationship with someone you know to be married. It’s usually about breaking up the marriage, from what I understand. Sex of the people involved doesn’t matter here.
Ooooh, look at “I can sleep once and only once per day and never for longer than a day” over here ;P :)
I’m shocked that this is still news as often as he seems to speak without thinking
Not particularly, based on my experience. Now, if you want AS/400 people and such…
I am so happy not to have to mess with that. LOADHIGH agony.
For the Koreans I met who moved to Japan, the work culture can be less bad, as can be working at certain companies despite where they graduated from. My sample size is small, though, and I am neither Japanese nor Korean.
Ohio apparently has multiple styles, but yeah, that’s the one I know. Tiny pepperonis is also quite common (crispy little cups of grease).
Japan kinda seems like they’ve always had more appreciation for small cars
I got a motorcycle and not a car purely because of the tight corners with stone walls and other insanity that is Tokyo street size.
Kei cars were meant to wear the roads less, be more fuel efficient (we import a lot of the various fuels we use), etc.
I actually am buying a farm in northern Japan and probably will end up buying a kei truck (though I’m debating buying a van instead, but money is super tight right now). Engine power and heating/AC are definitely factors to think about.
You should probably check the wiki or something for Ohio Valley; it’s definitely not like what I had in the Miami Valley and is from out by Steubenville.
I’ve been to Italy. Still really love Detroit style pizza. When I was in Italy (late '90s), none of us realized that pepperoni was an English name that didn’t exist in Italy. We got a pizza with a bunch of kinds of peppers on it at this place in Rome. Was still great, though.
It oddly reminds me of something I had in Florence, Italy in the late '90s. I didn’t speak Italian more than enough to order food (though I could get by in French for the most part for the simple interactions I was doing), so I don’t know exactly what it was, but it looked like what is in that wiki. I grew up in Ohio but never had that style (which I think is more in the eastern part of the state).
Ohio Valley pizza is not what I thought it was. I grew up in Ohio and the only time I ate something that even reminds me of that was actually in Florence, Italy, oddly.
I grew up on Central Ohio tiny-pepperoni’d, square-cut pizzas.
Today, Detroit is probably my fave, followed by what is more-or-less a tie between NY and Chicago Deep Dish depending upon my mood. Ohio pizza still holds a place in my heart, but it’s definitely not in the top 3.
I think “rogue-lite” or something like that is a better term for what I like. I’m currently playing “Against the Storm” is one a coworker recommended recently and I’m enjoying so far. Spelunky 2 was OK. There are probably a couple other’s I’m not remembering at the moment.
I was thinking 2000g (i.e. 2kg) balls, unless 2000 is a descriptor of a particular type of tungsten.
They partner with an enemy of the US who now gets a presence in mainland North America at the US’s doorstep making infiltration to the US, etc. even easier.
Yep. I think my age (I’m in my mid-40s) and being an adult when I played them or they came out has a lot to do with it. I think having less free time and a number of issues I deal with makes it harder to enjoy certain types of games (this is not to say young people don’t face their own stresses and issues!)
I think any game you grew up with gets a nostalgia level assigned to it and it’s easy to overlook certain flaws. For me, OoT felt like a step back, but I had been playing PC and Amiga games lot (I hated Starfox for this same reason). I’m sure I have the nostalgia glasses for some games, but I’m old enough that I think many wouldn’t even know them, hah.
I have the exact opposite opinion, heh. Sniper elite drove me crazy when I’d carefully line up a shot and be just too far inside cover and shoot a wall I couldn’t see because my freaking character was in the way
FF6 is still my favorite.
Torchlight 2 should scratch that itch. To me, Path of Exile is something the Diablo series could have been but wasn’t exactly? Though I haven’t played it in a number of years, so I may be mis-remembering exactly what it was like. I seem to think it was more like a point-and-click RPG with kinda Diablo-like combat.
