If you didn’t know getting monetized on YouTube currently requires 1000 subs and 4000 watch hours within a year or a a lot of shorts. That is doubling your 8000 hours on Feb 1. I need to get like 30 hours a day. Things are not looking good.

Hmmm. Tiramisu in a shareable can. Has Japan gone too far or have we not gone far enough.

foundinjapan.co/kanji has a new Japanese language learning tool. I have been working on this for a minute. It will teach the correct stroke order and balance. Let me know what you think

Fall flavours have officially hit Starbucks Japan! I tried the new Melty Sweet Potato Beni-Haruka Frappuccino today. The sweet potato drizzle + crunchy bits hits just right. Would you try this or pass? #StarbucksJapan #JapanTravel #FoundInJapan #JapanFood

I won’t be going to Tokyo Game show this year. It is my dream to go one day on the Business day!

So Disaster Drill here in Osaka. Wasn’t expecting it. Guess the system works because I went running to my phone to see what it was.

Looking for cheap home-cooked meals in Japan? Skip the convenience store and check out a local Shokudo (ι£Ÿε ‚)! You can pick fresh, traditional dishes and make your own set meal. This entire spread in Nara cost just 790 yen (~$5 USD).

Wow.
This angle of SΓΈrloth ignoring Haaland. The reaction from Haaland says it all man. He was frustrated and disappointed, just like the rest of us.

Again it is like they want to dissolve the EU
πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί The EU just passed Chat Control 1.0 in Brussels. Platforms can now scan your private messages again, officially "voluntary," in practice blanket surveillance. Here's the democratic scandal: 314 MEPs voted against it. Only 276 voted for it. It passed anyway... because an absolute majority of all MEPs was required to reject it, not just a majority of those present. More people voted no than yes. It still passed. Pushed through on an urgent procedure just before summer recess, when absences are highest and attention is lowest. This is how rights disappear folks. Not in one dramatic moment, but in procedural fine print, on a slow news day, while everyone's looking at Tehran. Source: @Fidias0 / Writer: Oliver

Big upgrade for the Found in Japan Channel. I got a new #DJI #Pocket4 . I have been using the DJI phone gimbal and mic 1 set for a while but this should really help me level up. What do you think about the shots? youtu.be/4I28N6DFzWQ

Are they looking for reasons to dissolve?
BREAKING: The EU is planning to require a passport to access the internet. And they want to block VPNs to enforce it. "The new age verification system cannot be bypassed via VPN." Read that again. A digital passport. For the internet. Enforced by blocking the tools that protect your privacy. This is what the trajectory looks like. - Cash banned above €10,000. - Bitcoin requires ID above €1,000. - Privacy coins banned. - MiCA eliminating 90% of crypto firms. And now internet access tied to your identity. With VPN circumvention specifically blocked. Every layer of digital privacy. Being dismantled one regulation at a time. While America debates zero capital gains on Bitcoin. Europe is building a system where every click, every transaction, every website visit. Is tied to your passport. This is not consumer protection. This is digital authoritarianism. And they're not hiding it anymore.
