That’s exactly why they did, although I’d argue something like Durendal (France's "Excalibur") would probably be better.

The most practical reasons are that both the drives and media are getting harder to find.

All of those are true of even smaller USB drives (which has been a problem here).

Same except keys are clipped on a belt loop and I have a handkerchief with my wallet in my right front pocket (Japan is super humid so a lot of sweat-wiping happens). Also right-handed, but I hold my phone with my left and enter the passcode with my right hand (I don’t use the fingerprint scanner)

… KEVIN!

I remember seeing it when it made it to DVD at some point and not making it all the way through the movie due to not enjoying it. I never tried to rewatch it after the fact.

Yeah, the inside of a 3.5" was still just a little floppy magnetic thing. I was just trying to be silly and channel my old-man-yells-at-cloud vibe.

Sure be a shame if all that selling screwed up the economy enough to completely offset any gains of collecting everything they can carry and immediately sell it instead of, y’know, roleplaying how actual people in that world would behave.

We had floppy drives but they started making the disks rigid! Rigid!!! If only we could go back to the good old scuzzy times…

You can pry my THAC0 from my cold, dead, -10 AC hands

Thanks for explaining! I haven’t set foot in a datacenter since probably 2008ish, heh.

In principal, I 100% agree. We do have food banks here, especially as the yen has dropped against the dollar making imports more expensive (and tons of things here are hit with that even secondarily as fuel and such is largely an import), inflation, and the economic shake-up during and after corona.

The issue specific with ehonmaki/sushi is the raw fish component and the way they’re held during the day (not in closed coolers for the most part, but the open type which can be much more variable in temperature). I don’t think they should give away potentially dangerous food. The other stuff, yeah, 100%

My gut is that food safety rules here probably make that difficult (though I don’t know for sure). They have a pretty short shelf life being raw seafood (in many cases) and are already steadily discounted as the day goes on before being tossed.

Edit: the article also mentioned things like Christmas cake that do last longer but can’t really be turned into anything else. I bought a Christmas cake a day or two after once

Yeah, I had never seen a connector that looks anything like that, but I figured I was just behind the times (since it didn’t look like Ethernet plugged into it to me)

I moved from social to run a few months ago after being fed up. I like it.

The japanese article mentions some of it is sent to recycling companies with the one example using it for pig feed. The numbers are also probably higher because some had been thrown away before the volunteers/workers did their survey

As a programmer, I don’t even know what we’re looking at. A switch, I would guess, but I haven’t seen hardware in years. In any case wouldn’t “port 21 <bottom|top>” been better?

Can confirm as someone who lives in Japan. It’s an oft-dis used thing in foreigner groups when the new arrivals show up and notice

And ‘I have an empire’ bragging rights like the other cool kids; can’t forget about that one.
