But you can see obese people being obese and they are small so that makes them an easier target of scapegoating than the big company that wastes food out of sight.

Plus they making excess food compared to what they can sell locally doesn't mean it's suddenly magically cheap to get that food to the places it's needed.

Sure, China can finance it's global distribution if cheap good, but that'd be communism and we don't want to resort to that to help people. Better just leave that to private charity. So they can individually be less effective even considering the best intentions (it's never the best intentions).

I like tokyotosho.inf but I think they all track the same

Same as you, but little Japanese here...

School languages are absolutely worthless unless you kept practising afterwards. You generally aren't there wanting to learn and don't have natural conversation partnerships to practice with.

Had a talk with some friends a while back about this. Used to be this big far away country with wonders and crappy things. And it's turning into scam center galore because the only contact we have these days is the weekly scammer. To the point we've come to associate he accent with the situation. It's really an undeserved fate.

And people who work on ships too yeah. But that's not the norm, it's the exception

High end gaming laptops are a curse. It's a package that cannot be performant, you simply don't have a good space to cool it and keep it portable. Focus on it has made a big part of development in good hardware to be restricted to space and heat efficiency in a non optimal package.

Desktop is the way to go for gaming, you get much more affordable power and bang for your buck. If you want a machine for gaming you want a space where you can chill out and be confortable, desktop on a table with a good chair and nice monitors are the way to go and cheaper than the laptop counterpart.

Laptop is pretty handy for taking it to wherever you need it. But you cannot enjoy that high end performance on a comparatively tiny screen. If you are just carrying you laptop from desk with monitors and keyboard to another, you're just using a less effective and expensive desktop in two spots.

Even for working, it's handy to have a way to take your stuff elsewhere, but the way workstations work you'd much more benefit from having a cheaper desktop at you office and/or home and have a notebook to stream the content you need.

All the while all the money and research spent on high end laptops and graphs cards that live in them is being used to fuel a worse product that will invariably overheat and not work at full capacity.

Over here in Portugal there's the European legislation, but whether if it is enforced or not is another story. Some places get ridiculous, and I'd imagine that happens all over Europe too.

There's been one in Ireland I think, that was closed down because a porn actress went there
