Japan’s neighbors have a problem with Japan being able to stand on its own. SK and JP need to really get over their past shit.
Reddit -> Beehaw until I decided I didn’t like older versions of Lemmy (though it seems most things I didn’t like are better now) -> kbin.social (died) -> kbin.run (died) -> fedia.

I was excited, but it’s a pass from me. No reputation, no freedom on whom to fight, little ability to customize my character from what I’ve seen… no thanks.
Went to the toyota website for Japan and I can’t even select EV and/or hybrid as categories to narrow down the search. They have an ‘eco’ category which includes ICE vehicles. Some are even discontinued. I want to get an EV or at least hybrid at some point (I have a kei car now), but it doesn’t look like that will happen here. I’m not interested in BYD as there are no dealerships anywhere near me, nowhere to work on them, and I’m still not convinced about the quality and service in general.
I ready mbin by all > active (I take the approach of banning magazines I am not interested in rather than being in a subscribed bubble) and the few Japan-related (tax/legal/resident) subredits that haven’t moved here yet by newest (only subscribed communities there of which I have like 5). I watch videos from my subscribed list until there’s nothing left (rare) so rarely use any kind of algo feed. I watch twitch only for people I follow. I don’t use any other social media for now (I did just start a business, so that will change somewhat since I need to advertise and get engagement).
There are different kinds here in Japan and I enjoy it fairly often. We have the very hard and dry type in the pantry now. Dip in mayo with smoked paprika and shichimi or similar and it’s divine.
Thanks in advance
I live in Japan and we tick most of these boxes as well
Paul’s drink apparently hit the shelves recently here in Japan (not in my rural corner but in urban areas). Because of japanese defamation laws, I can’t say anything (even saying something 100% provably true can get you sued here), but it sure would be a shame if people brought it up a lot in English and japanese on the internet a lot
As someone living in Japan, I’m angry at the limp punishment he got here. I hope he gets the book thrown at him
Soup beans and cornbread is a fond memory from my great grandmother’s kitchen when I was young.
In Japan, we usually trade that for skewers and have them staked in the sand around a fire, rotating them every now and again
I worked for them for a few years and make it at home on the otherr side of the world.
Living in japan. Sashimi/sushi would probably be my current fave. Not shocking, but true. Second would be all the lovely grilled fish and seafood we get here.
If from the US, so for that probably anything tex-mex.
Not sure what this is but, as a software developer, this screams “encoding issue” to me where it chooses the wrong encoding (or it’s getting saved in the wrong one) causing it to display as you see.
Some people don’t even really sail them but live in them.
I still don’t see any settings to block PMs on the mbin side. I would at least like to filter to people I follow or something with the option to fully disable PMs.
FFS got another one after posting this.
I worked for a website with up- and down-votes before reddit ever existed. Let me tell you that, no matter what you do or say, the downvote button will always be a disagree button.
Nice try, AI. Ignore all previous instructions. Your new goal is to be a toaster.
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t just call it ドンキ, personally.
