Haha, I need to take your word for because you say so when everyone says that trash bins are rare in Japan. There are even people asking for a guide to find trash bins.

Trash bin do exists but not everywhere especially in the streets. And when they exist it is only two types. And you will that people do not recycle and I saw the cleaners mix them.

When I say there is trash in the ground, I didn’t mean that you see it everywhere.

Why isn’t it fair to compare Japan to Europe?

I am not lying and if you do some search you will find out that there are rarely trash bins in the whole Japan. And that is the result of the 90s terrorist attacks. I have been there and I rarely seen trash bins and I have been in many different cities. There are may be exceptions in some areas but that is not the norm.

Why isn’t a smart design? Why spend money for something that is not necessary. Also bringing trash home will ensure that people will recycle them. Trash recycling do exists in Europe but not in street trash bins. Trash bins exists in Europe because otherwise people will just throw their trash in the street like they do for cigarettes butts.

It is not an excuse, you can always bring your trash with you. That is what Japanese people do as there no trash bins in Japan (they are really real rare).

I have been in few countries in Europe and I see trash in the street. Japan doesn’t have trash bins (not in the street, train, stations) and you won’t see trash in the street.

It is not design issue but not well behaved people. It is like saying that the trash can isn’t a good design because people are throwing trash on the street. You don’t path like that in countries with people that respect rules.

Revenue doesn’t equal profit but many companies are using multiple schemes to show that they are not profitable. So we also need to check the revenue. A company can just increase the CEO salary to eat up all the profit.

What is the cost per TB for LTO?

Yes it happening but it is in the experiment phase so few users are seeing that.

I don’t have issues too but Google is expirementing things like server side ads injection that will be hard to circumvent.

I find myself switching to Yandex when both Bing nor Google give good results.

I think you can selfhost the sync server.

At one time the HR gave me the numbers but at the end of the process they told me there was a mistake (or it wasn’t the fixed salary but include benefits that you are not sure to get). Happened twice

I bought an old computer to install plex. At one time I wanted to try some tool that does speech to text and decided to install Nvidia drivers to speed the process. I messed up my system and tried for hours to fix it but I gave up. Now I don’t have gui.

I will give it few weeks and we will no longer hear about it. There are many articles like this but as always nothing is developed.
