"Their (Beijing's) policy has been to reunite Taiwan with China. From their standpoint, maybe it is analogous to Hawaii or something like that, like an integral part of China that is arbitrarily not part of China mostly because ... the U.S. Pacific Fleet has stopped any sort of reunification effort by force," he said.

That's what' happens when one talks without any historical knowledge, one sounds like an idiot.

Tokyo-gaijinToday 05:39 pm JST

Dumping of nuclear waste and heavy metals into the oceans has been going on for many years. Dumping this water is probably much less harmful to the planets ecology than all the waste plastic being used and dumped.

Yeah I've always dumped my trash in front of my cityhall, why should I stop ?!

Oh and I also don't recycle my plastic why should I not dump my trash everywhere ?

That just makes no sense ...

Dump it in Lake Inawashiro ?

Who in the world cares if those criminals publish a few Australia limited diagnostic codes like p_diag: F122 ? I would only be surprised if they publish that no one has this diagnosis. lol

Posted in: Ethereum blockchain set for 'monumental' overhaul See in context

It is interesting to see the pro crypto go crazy putting out article after article with "in to future" " with advancements" etc...to try and say this form of currency inst far more costly in power than what they like to call "Fiat" but the reality is that today cryptocurrency uses fat more and if the supporters get their way then it will need 90% more as the entire population would be using it.

I am assuming we are talking about bitcoin here as ethereum is moving to POS. The number of users using BTC is not correlated to the need of electricity, BTC can work technically with a few home computers, greed and people with resources investing in expensive hardware wanting a share of the pie bring the electricity consumption high.

Yes, leave the fiat system for a crypto controlled by a single guy and with transactions validated by the rich. Sounds perfect.

@Eppee

Crypto currencies can be extremely useful when used as intended.

I am working with a guy in Belarus, crypto currencies allow me to continue our work relationship despite the political climate.

With all respect, this reads like you are circumventing sanctions which...is illegal. As such, I would not be too talkative about it in public...

What sanctions do I circumvent ? I am not a citizen from any countries applying those ... The fact is we previously used services from the USA and USD to do our transfers, which we cannot anymore, that's all, we're using another service.

Abe234Today 01:47 am JST

I agree up to a point. I think there is a use for them, but as cash.I'm not so sure.

It may allow you to continue a work relationship despite the political climate, but then again, can't this person also just do a normal transfer of cash. The system is in place, it can be transferred in minutes. Eg WISE.

No, everything has been blocked, no international transfer, no wise, no PayPal, etc. They are all companies from the USA.

Crypto produces nothing, makes nothing and does nothing. Until it does, I’d stay out! Tulips, and pyramids come to mind.

This is a European problem, not a Japanese problem! Drop all Russian sanctions immediately. It's an excellent chance for Japan to gain a very large economic advantage over Europe and USA.

Let's see when that happen up north.

ooheysnewToday 07:22 am JST

for me, Abe will be remembered for wasting 100’s of millions of $$ on useless masks, that were purchased from his friends company.

Indeed, I am a bit confused by all of that, his assassination is awful but everyone is acting like he was Gandhi, truth is, he was an (ultra?) nationalist with quite a few dodgy scandals, everyone forgot the land deal already ?

ianToday 01:13 pm JST

There is a good way to maintain joint custody.

Try not to make the spouse run away

I am confused, have you even spent more than 2 weeks in Japan ?! This is common practice here, after the divorce the father doesn't see his kids anymore. It doesn't only happen to foreigners, lots of Japanese fathers face the same fate, most of them accept it but a few try to fight it.

Posted in: Court rules in favor of French man's wife over child custody rights See in context

MeiyouwentiToday 07:41 am JST

Let’s look at the case objectively. The woman and her children ran away from the wife-beating husband and would like to continue to live together in peace. At least the court granted the Frenchman the right to see his children. He needs to learn to be a good loser.

It seems that you have no clue of the case, for fact : "The woman claimed she suffered domestic violence while they lived together, but the court did not recognize that abuse occurred." Garanteed if the court in Japan didn't recognize abuse, there was no abuse.
