5·28 天前Invented in Japan in 1999, i-mode is a remarkable technology for connecting mobile devices to a wide range of web services.
It’s well-known in Japan that this invention, not the iPhone, was the first to enable games, email, emojis, and selfies on mobile devices.
I believe that the Japanese girls of the early 2000s who created this culture are the greatest hackers who shaped the smartphone era.
Super Galapagos - Matt Alt’s Pure Invention https://blog.pureinventionbook.com/p/super-galapagos
Imagine a court hearing being filled with Super Mario sound effects, laughter, and commentary like a sports broadcast.
That’s exactly what news programs that use music, sound effects, and commentators who are little more than gawkers are doing.
That’s not reporting; it’s merely a show that looks like it, a desecration of reality.
That’s why I prefer the old-fashioned form of media news, using text and images.
Of course, this also involves arbitrary intentions and editing, but the problems are far less severe than with video.

3·1 个月前Here is the image of the label on the other side.
I haven’t eaten a huge variety of hamburgers, but I particularly liked the “Tobikiri Cheese” burger (now discontinued) from the Japanese hamburger chain Mos Burger.
Mos Burger emphasizes using “domestically sourced” ingredients, and among the many foreign-owned burger chains in Japan, it particularly pursues a taste tailored to Japanese palates.
Furthermore, this hamburger chain stands out among Japanese hamburger chains, having been the first to sell the “Teriyaki Burger” (also known as the Samurai Burger).
Unfortunately, this favorite menu item is no longer available, but I like the overall flavor direction of this brand, so I’m thinking of going back again.
44·1 个月前What I’m particularly concerned about lately is the growing share of online forums that don’t even publish their content on the web.
The most famous example of this type of forum is probably Discord.
As those of you on Lemmy know, many people chose Discord as an alternative after Reddit’s deterioration.
Hasn’t this problem already escalated to the point where access to content isn’t guaranteed not only to some bots but even to individuals without accounts?
Shouldn’t those who love the web be extremely wary of online communities that don’t even try to be based on the web?
That’s what I think.
If search engines truly only show the “existence” of forums, then the open web is truly over.
Yes, I know about it. My specialty is personal websites in the Japanese-speaking world, which is my native language, and some of the website creators occasionally use this service.
For example, DJ Telematic Visions does.
Music. Because it’s sound, even when I’m at my most lethargic, depressed, and too exhausted to do anything, I can enjoy it just by feeling its vibrations in my body.
Collecting rare and high-quality pages on the internet, especially personal websites. In this age of social media where information flow is manipulated by algorithms, the culture of personal link collections is all the more necessary.
6·2 个月前In an article written in Japanese, the author points out the differences in maliciousness between Bluesky and other Fediverse services.
For example, while Mastodon administrators can access blocking lists that include federated users, Bluesky’s access is not limited to administrators and is publicly available as a fully public API not found in the official app.

Both Mastodon and Bluesky fail to implement measures such as notifying users of this fact when they make their first reaction, but Bluesky’s particular maliciousness lies in its excessive disclosure of API permissions.
At least I believe Bluesky should have limited its API permissions to the same level as Mastodon.
2·3 个月前I am adding this comment as related information has come to light.
In March of this year, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi met with a representative of Palantir Technologies.
On Japanese social media, there are voices speculating that this relationship between Palantir and Japan may have led to the introduction of this bill.

「マンガ肉」
This is what you would call “Manga Meat” in English, an iconic piece of meat on the bone that often appears in anime, manga, games, and other works in Japanese subculture.
I would love to bite into this hearty meat like the cartoon characters someday.
“Cardboard Cooler” with cooling function using frozen plastic bottles.
I thought it was ridiculous to make your own air conditioner out of cheap materials, but apparently it’s actually quite cool.
However, the author of the article says that “the wind smells a little like metal.”
The article is in Japanese, but for details, please refer to the link below.
