This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

These are relatively easy to find in Japan

Despite the old stereotype of Japan being a futuristic nation that produces the technology of tomorrow, a lot of it's institutions are still using very outdated technology.

Fax is still very actively used

Fax is still used in government and healthcare in the United States.
