I understood them as expensive toys, like an old Italian project car that’s fun to tool around in in nice weather, but when you need to get to work, you drive your car, but experiencing its role in SEA completely change my perspective. They can be cheap, boring, functional machines, with a suprisingly high capacity. that even a dog can perform basic maintenance on and keep running for decades, that work just fine in rain.

Switch to a motorbike, then you can experience righteous anger at the handful of drivers slowing down hundreds of bikes and people in buses.

Its quite mid to bad fruity milk tea with pudding at the bottom
There’s a savory crepe place I stopped going to like 80 cents would get you a fully loaded crepe, but it only came with bobba, and I didnt have the language skills to ask for no tea.

Your eyedoctor can show you the capillaries in question next time you get your script renewed.

No way is that accurate, the only time I saw toilets without bidets in Japan were in public toilets in poorer areas, trains, places that hadn’t been renovated since the Showa era, and “someone bought an old building for pennies and illegally remodeled it”. I am happy to report Vietnam is quite high as well.

No, the capillaries on your eyelids supply o2.
If you fall asleep with contacts on or wear them too long, blocking the supply of O2, you will grow capillaries infront of your cornea. This is bad for vision.

Theres a few companies that make moving tails (and wings) for a few hundred USD, but they tend to be waitless rather than designed for balancing

No no no, if you don’t constantly support the policies that got us here, youre an accellerationist who want the republicans to win. Which is definitely a real position people on lemmy have. Don’t ask them, just trust me and block any instance left of tepid liberalism.

I dont have any evidence, but I 100% believe Engels invented Stirner for Marx to get mad about. Everything we know about the guy reads like 1800s satire.

Taiwan’s official name is “the republic of china”, “china” covers both places just fine.

- Comment on Anon looks into cults 4 weeks ago:
China had a serious problem with cults, while Japan and Korea are heavily influenced by America, I don’t see that reflected in their cults.
Its not like the UK is less influenced by America than places were the average person has seen like 1 American TV show or movie.

- Comment on US education 4 weeks ago:
Religion doesn’t exist outside society; that dogma is determined by what is useful to those in society with the power to promote it. This is why under the multi-cultural Ottoman Empire they came up with all sorts of justifications to expand the definition of “people of the book” to include basically every significant religious minority except Hindus, and that was only a matter of time, and why fundamentalists who want to return to the 1300s were promoted funded by the British/US/Saudis.
Same applies to any ideology or philosophy. To pretend otherwise is liberal idealism.

Right now, the Chinese government has effective eminent domain powers which allows them to acquire property for which to build public infrastructure, both expressways and high-speed railways
I’ve heard people claim as much, but at the same time, Stuck Nail Houses exist, I’m not sure how to reconcile the two. I think it’s that their eminent domain is limited to property that was purchased after a certain point, so if it’s property your parents owned since the 80s, it’s literally easier for developers to route the highway around your home than win that lawsuit, but if they bought in like 2010, they can just give you a similar or better property, or the cash to buy one, and that’s that.

It means they need to run more trains.
Sold out trains still sell standing tickets, which let you pick seats if available. I’ve seen old ladies choose to stand so they can all be in a group.

Reality: Trains in China go pretty much everywhere and are often sold out days in advance.
