Groceries in Japan are extremely expensive, which might lead you to assume that Japanese seniors receive decent pensions. However, this 80-year-old woman, who was caught stealing a large amount of groceries from a supermarket, lives on just 10万円 a month — roughly 55,000 RUB. It's no wonder she's forced to steal food just to get by. #japan #theft

Why do Japanese people do that?

A former employee of Mitsubishi UFJ Bank was arrested on suspicion of stealing gold bars from a safe deposit box. The woman stole approximately 20 kg of gold bars. #japan #theft

Why do many in Japan do that?

How Japanese people drive.

Chinese tourists are shaking the sakura tree so that the petals fall just to take a photo. #japan #gaijin

Now that's based. Imagine how upset the Japanese must be.

50 million tourists from China should come to Japan at the same time and behave that way to punish the Japanese.

What is it that causes the Japanese to live in such conditions? #japan #trash

@deadheat @Suiseiseki @takao @coolboymew @feld @hakui @sun VNs may seem appealing, but it's best to avoid them due to the fact that most VNs are proprietary. It's fine to run a free(libre) VN if you like, but the one you mentioned is not free. Proprietary software by design doesn't respect the users' freedom and community. You are not allowed to run such a program as you wish, you can't study how it works and what it does, you can't change it, you can't make and distribute copies of it. There's no way to find out what the program is doing while it's running. Proprietary software can compromise your privacy and security. Sometimes we can detect malicious functionalities by observing their consequences, but it's also possible that a program does something malicious without leaving traces.

If you run a proprietary program, you put its developer in a position of power over you and your computer. You give them the power to abuse you. Don't allow them to commit injustice.

Tempted by the power to do anything they want on the users' computers, developers of proprietary programs tend to include malicious functionalities. In practice almost all proprietary software is malware.

In contrast, alternatives like manga, anime, and light novels can be enjoyed using free software such as MPV for anime, NSxiv for manga, and crqt-ng for books.

Stick to media that respects your freedom and privacy. Remember, most visual novels should be avoided since they are proprietary!
