@coolboymew@lanodan Yeah, I don't know why they did it. There must be a reason. In Tokyo, doors in barriers appeared on the busiest stations first, primarily because their platforms were too narrow, and it was possible for people get squeezed out on the tracks. I think 2013 was the first time I saw them, and only in places like Akiba, Kanda, etc. on Yamanote. The first photographic evidence that I have is from 2015:
@lanodan@coolboymew Weirdly enough Russians did it back in 1970s with ease, in trains that had no computers at all. It was required in St. Petersburg (then Leningrad) subway for all stations with doors. I vividly remember seeing that when I was about 6 years old. Very unusual for anyone used to Moscow! https://www.flickr.com/photos/carlitos/16439282901
@Moon I once worked under a CEO whose name was Manu Mehta. He was an interesting character. One time he found me sleeping me on my desk. Then he offered me a pay raise. I wrote a DVR engine for his company, which they used for some OEM deals with set-top box manufacturers who found TiVo too expensive and monopolistic.
@Moon My mother has a pitbull lapdog. She treats it as a lapdog and the dog behaves like one. Jumps around and asks to be scratched. I am legit afraid about her getting mauled to death one day. She is in her 80s!
@pro I was told that such bullshit was enforced by the VScode editor. Every time you end editing, it creates a commit. Writing anything sensible in there becomes tiring very quickly.
@Moon TBH I ate in Tatyana north of you instead when I had an opportunity, but that is permanently closed. P1 has outstanding reviews. But dunno sorry.
@Moon@realcaseyrollins@lain BTW, I dunno about Jews, but Americans didn't "steal" any land from Indians. They won it fair and square in a series of brutal wars. And the losers of those wars were cleansed, just like Serbs from Kosovo in 1993 and Germans from Prussia in 1945.
@Moon@coolboymew@takao@tsugumi That looks like a fairly normal V.24 port to me. The mouse is probably a simple serial port too. The rest seem non-standard.
