Zealous,

I haven’t played the recent games, but isn’t it impossible for a Pokémon to switch in cursed or confused?

Zealous, (edited )

If anyone is interested, here is a documentary about the centralisation of Korea which is related to this article.

Edit: link formatting

Zealous,

Yeah, messed up the formatting. I’ve edited the original comment. Thanks.

Zealous,

2/10. Are there any giveaways that a face is AI generated?

Zealous,

As a mixed third generation immigrant, I get this a lot. In my experience, most people want to know my ethnicity, but for some reason they never ask me that directly.

Zealous,

OP has only only been here for 4.5 months on an exchange. He clearly has rose-tinted glasses on.

I’m not denying what he is saying but I visited the UK back in February last year after 5 years here and I had a wonderful time. It felt so good to just talk to people in English and share banter, spend time with family, not have to overthink every interaction. Sure people can be loud and it can be a bit grim but it felt refreshing after being here so long. I don’t really understand what these “conflicts” OP is referring to. I’ve only really had a bad encounter with some chavs before.

I had a good think about what I wanted out of life after that trip, and decided to move back in April (especially for career reasons). I think being the only foreigner in a traditional Japanese company has really burnt me out. But I’m glad I got to spend some time in this country!

Zealous,

20 upvotes but no comments? Strange. Anyway, I think a big factor that you did not mention is that Japanese people generally don’t complain. The concept of “shouganai” is so ingrained here that idea of complaining about something can be interpreted as “well what do you want me to do about it?”. But in the scenario that you mentioned, they probably do think they are burdening you, otherwise you wouldn’t say you are busy . Or it could be a case of 思いやり

This was a big culture shock compared to the UK where people complain all the time, even just to vent their feelings.

Zealous,

These nuisance streamers only come here because they know they’d get their ass beat if they went somewhere else.

Zealous,

Very similar situation down here in Okayama. Autumn is the best season!

Would you be buried alive for 48hr for a million dollars?

You are buried in a coffin 6ft deep, with no light or cell phone. There is only a small tube connected to the coffin from outside that allows you to breathe (edit: you can breathe with no difficulty). After 48 hours, you are dug up and given 1 million dollars. Do you do it?...

Zealous,

No way. Imagine being stuck in complete darkness unable to move your body for that amount of time. I’d lose my mind and probably have a panic attack thinking to myself what if they don’t dig me up?. The money isn’t worth the mental trauma that would cause me.

Zealous,

I read the article but they missed the point that higher inflation will cause consumers to spend less and ultimately slow the economy, increasing unemployment. Higher unemployment means more competition for jobs and lowball salaries. Now we might not see widespread layoffs here but the average person will be stuck earning peanuts.

Zealous,

It’s on Amazon. There’s lots of different sizes but this one has prime delivery available amzn.asia/d/9Xn6kZQ

You might even be able to order it using a US Amazon account and have it shipped over

Zealous,

I’m in the car on my way to the deep inaka to spend time with my gf’s family at her grandma’s home. Last year we spent 8 hours there and my legs got so numb sitting on the tatami the whole time. There’s also no WiFi or mobile signal. But they are nice people! I’ll be back to work on Monday.

Zealous,

Can’t you just delete your Reddit account (delete all your comments/posts first), and the problem will be solved?

Zealous,

Ah I misread that, If I were you, I’d just make your GitHub look as professional as possible. So that in the extremely rare chance that someone does Google you, it’s obvious that the the accounts aren’t linked.

That being said, your career is not over and the anxiety you have is all in your head.

Zealous,

I’ve been trying to ween myself off Amazon, but it’s far too convenient here, especially since I don’t have a car. I’d use Rakuten ichiba more, but there’s just too much information density and I like being able to pick some deliveries up at the konbini.

Zealous,

Thanks for sharing, did you stick with the same tutor throughout the 2 years?

Zealous,

If it was a private secure carpark, I wonder if you could set up a tent there? Take showers at a nearby gym and use a pocket WiFi to stay online. But I guess cooking and electricity would be an issue though.

Zealous,

I normally eat before or after I go. In my experience most of the festival food I’ve eaten has been overpriced (relative to size) and subpar in quality.

Zealous,

This is my favourite book on Stoicism!

Zealous,

Thanks for sharing this extract! I’ll have to add this to my reading list.
