  Japanese here. There’s specific editor often categorized as “アスキーアートエディタ” (Ascii Art Editor). They often comes with libraries of existing AA to modify, and can display image with low opacity to “trace” image.

  Large part of jp ascii art appeared in 90s to early 00s at underground forums like 2ch. Those editor were tailored for their speifics such as font family (MS-P Gothic) and size. The display/font system is different nowadays, but unlike “AA artist” in those times who is 100% comitted to make vertical line aligning pixel perfect most of people find those AA displays ok.

  Kiwi and pineapples have enzyme to break proteins down, causing it taste better if they have contact to diary products long enough. Canned pineapples don’t have this issue but I haven’t seen canned kiwi, maybe that explains no kiwi ice cream

  You can expect more interaction on the showethought itself. IMO microblogs are more about poster, thread style forum is for a topic.

  Some mushrooms can be poisonous after 24h, just in case. angel wing mushroom shows no digestive symptoms but encephalopathy after 2 day to 1 month of latent period. The mushroom was known to be edible for a long time. Were it not for full screening for encephalopathy cases (enforced due to SARS spread back in 2004), it could’ve remain “edible” still now.

  So its like they’re living compressed png world chosing 4bit as color depth (it’s 16 colors tho). I’m no retro gamer but some old graphics presents unbelievable level of expression with limited colors, so it’s possible they’re seeing something amazing still.

  I only encountered once, but when it happened I had to realize how old science field may have been different. the exact detail I was looking for should be in [20] … but “[20] to be published” (presumably by the same author). I couldn’t find any papet by author’s name other than that but the author was so sure getting published.

  And all the mining waste are dumped in space, where people thought out of human’s reach so it’s safe to leave it there, until proven otherwise. I may be pessimistic, but if such technological advance made it will likely expand region of human activity and thus history repeats.
