How long until Hector gets cancelled? Keep up the crusade buddy, pissing everyone off is a great idea to make them not ask questions about Byuu and how you were invovled.

Oi! You got a loicense for that loicense request?!
TO be fair, the M1 is a very poorly documented system with a locked and proprietary bootloader. Getting a non-proprietary OS to run on it would be a big thing for an open-source nerd.

IDK if it was a technical thing or more Japanese 「しょうがない」 bullshit (they legit used to not allow the importation of non-Japanese skis because "they weren't designed for Japan's special, unique snow". This is a hilarious NYT article from 1988 about different import blocking reasons, like "Japanese people's longer intestines"), but I wasn't allowed to use my American iPhone in Japan whatsoever when I moved there in the early 2010s. But that's changed now and they now allow you to use a non-Japanese iPhone (SINCE THEY ARE LITERALLY THE FUCKING SAME THING).
OK, the Japanese cell phone system is really fucking dumb. Like REALLY fucking dumb. You literally cannot text someone unless they are on the same carrier as you. Do you know what their workaround for this is? Instead of texting people, you actually send an e-mail to the e-mail assigned to each phone number based on your carrier. This is why in Japanese, you don't say you 'text" someone, but you "mail" someone. It's so dumb for multiple reasons, but the most annoying is that people's e-mail addresses are decided personally and are nigh impossible to remember because Japanese people are utter cringe at deciding usernames (like yuki.sky.lovers.1488@softbank.jp). Because of this, most texting is done via a popular Japanese app called "LINE" (which I use and love and everyone should get it cause it has cute-ass stickers and a desktop version). Telegram is mainly just a tranny "hacker" platform and doesn't really have traction in Japan whatsoever. But with all of these messaging apps (LINE, Telegram, Whatsapp), you usually tie it to ONE phone number despite having multiple and can use it on multiple devices with that one number.
As someone who splits time between continents, I also maintain both a US and a European number via two different SIM cards. Especially since my American number would be gone forever once I'm done studying in Europe. BUT, you really cannot do ANYTHING in Japan without a Japanese phone number. You need it to sign up for a lot of common things and the Japanese app stores have dozens upon dozens of daily-used apps only available in Japan. If Byuu really didn't have a Japanese phone number, it would seem like he wasn't really integrated into Japanese society.
TL;DR: Japanese cell phone system is fucked, so it's not odd to not use SMS.

Do you have the retardations? You can SMS anyone even people in the gaikoku. The reason you don't is that SMS is shit and you have IP services even in the middle of bum fuck nowhere.
Maybe back in the day when garakei were still a thing you might have a point as those phones could be fussy about messages from other carriers' handsets. But that hasn't been a thing for 10+ years and garakei sent fucked up html+gif style messages via email. It worked better than the alternative MMS shit everywhere else.
FYI sim free is a thing now. You can buy whatever phone you like and get it attached to your contract sim as long as it has a giteki mark somewhere. Which is basically the case for all major vendor smartphones.
Getting a Japanese number is easy even if you don't have a Japanese SIM. NTT will provide you with one for $5 a month that you can use anywhere you have IP. That is more than enough for the limited things you must have a phone number for like registered delivery of credit cards.
笑 Yeah having a phone is "integrated into Japanese society". Did your mother feed you lead as a child?
Any dork in Tokyo can get a SIM by flashing their residence card and shouting "SSHIIIIMUUU KAAAADOOO KUDAJAIIII" in the middle of a softbank shop. There is a reason the dorks live in Tokyo and it's because they can't actually function in anywhere that doesn't have English speaking staff and they don't yet have a wife that fucked all of the ALTs in her area for free English lessons to baby sit and translate everything from Japanese into retard for them.
WTF is being integrated in Japanese society anyhow? The nips don't even talk to their own neighbours. I've been kumichou for my area twice and the only people that bother turning up to any of the meetings are the retired old guys that have nothing else to do. The old guys had to literally bribe people with a free lunches to get them to take part in the town sports day.
I guess you did ALT for a few years or you did some fake degree at Temple or similar and that's why you think having a mobile number is part of the citizenship test?

Slightly misspoke, you can message other people, BUT THERE IS A CHARGE TO IT. Are you denying the e-mail for each phone number thing? What other reason would they have that for?
I literally fucking said that in my post.
...? What's your point? I literally said you need a Japanese number and you said "Haha no you can get a number this way". YES, BECAUSE YOU NEED TO HAVE A PHONE NUMBER.
LMFAO bitter old gaijin confirmed. Enjoy your 田舎生活 driving to the local grocery store to get your gallon of shochu to drown your problems as your bitch wife sucks the life, money, and ambition out of you day by day. Enjoy your dead-end job.
Sorry you have no social life and also think a social life only involves socializing with co-workers. Enjoy sitting under you kotatsu, eating mikans, and drinking a Strong Zero while you complain about how all the other ホワイトピッグs need to ゴーホーム because they're ruining your precious Japan.
Now if you actually want to do something other than sit in your hovel all day, you need a phone number for:
- Getting a package delivered
- Buying tickets for events from the コンビニ machines
- Using a travel agency to book tickets
- Making a hotel reservation
- Getting a bank account
- Setting up an Internet connection

Happy page 600! Haven't checked on the thread in a while, but unsurprised to see there's still no evidence of Near killing himself besides "dude totally trust me" and a photograph of a $5 urn that anyone can purchase with any name on it.
Delighted to see Hector is salty that his "ending Kiwifarms saga" failed spectacularly and the internet has moved on (and is now flocking to Kiwifarms to read about Chris-Chan). I wouldn't be surprised if he was the one behind the DDoS.

Long time lurker but new registered user here.
All of the mystery surrounding Near's "suicide" is what brought me to sign up now after reading each and every page. I can't believe we still don't have any concrete information. Great mystery of our times I guess

Of course there is different pricing for sending SMS internationally and across providers. That's because it's part of the crappy old phone system and has all of the left overs involved with that.
That is why email is better. You get charged for "packets" of a fixed size. Where those packets go doesn't matter. They are only charged on the amount rounded up to the size of a single packet unit. Back in the day that was a pretty big deal because it meant lonely weeb virgins outside of Japan could email their early internet girlfriends directly to their phones as long as they could work out the right encoding.
There isn't a email address for each phone. You had an email address associated with your account and your phone was setup to collect those emails via a gateway system in the garakei days. I have no idea what my softbank provided email even is. Everyone uses gmail or whatever rainbow flavored thing you get on iphones is.
I was actually arguing you don't need a phone number in a lot of cases. And the few cases you do it is very easy to get one as IP phone services have been a thing in Japan forever.
For example you don't need a phone number for packages. Registered packages like credit cards etc might need a phone number listed on the senders side but it could be anything.
There are actually ways to send packages without any of the receivers details recently.
Ah nice one. As you are were so integrated here, better than Byuu, why did you go home?
I'm putting my money on that your English speaking tard contract didn't get renewed and you had to leave?
- Socializing with Japanese co-workers would be a sign of integration right? Why is that a bad thing? Going to the local hub and hoping some yariman comes along is more integrated?
- Eating enough mikan that they come out of your nose and getting fucked up with the relatives around the kotatsu is a good sign of integration is it not? Based on your rules sitting in your crappy one room apartment eating your fifth cup ramen for the day is more integrated as long as you have a Japanese phone number. If that's your logic I think you need to start asking your mother why the sugar in your house was gray and not white.
- Don't assume my pronouns^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H race you bigot! I don't give a fuck about what other foreigners are doing in Japan. Doesn't affect me. Sure seems like they get your pussy in a rage though.
Your logic is messed up again. JapanToday is for people like you that don't live in Japan anymore or live in Japan but their wife stole their kids and now live alone with a tiny bath tub in the same room as their one hub IH kitchen. It's a place for them to cry about Japan being horrible while secretly hoping that Japan will create a new visa class for talentless super creeps with yellow fever so they can get back in.
As a man of good upbringing and class that has had sex with real human vagina* the only news I read is the troubleshooter section in the yomiuri.
Anyhow, it's been fun, I'll be back in a week or so to laugh at the next attempt here to "out japan" Byuu or Hector by some cheesy dicked retard. See you then.
*silicone molds of real vaginas don't count btw. You can't get into the cool people gang via the back door.

This is of little consequence, but in North America 10+ years ago mobile numbers were linked to email addresses. You could use the 10 digits of the phone number followed by the carrier's email suffix to send SMS from email and vice-versa. For all I know, this is still possible (for example, 555-555-5555@sprintPCS.com).

"He liked looking at cute youthfully drawn characters". Cute, youthful characters drawn in a style that aligns with his sexual fetish, you mean, if you were honest, Hector.
Reminds me a hell of a lot of looking at little children taking baths, which as we all know isn't pedophilia unless you jerk off to it. Jonathan Ross said so, and if anyone knows pedophilia it is him.
I guess Near liking those drawings and the fact he defended loli shit are just coincidences. Really, really convenient coincidences. Which, if you are honest, and not trying to establish/hold onto a narrative, are giant red flags showing what a morally disgusting person your friend is.

Nah man this is awesome! I don't have a fucking clue what either of them are screeching about but throwing in those Japanese characters is way more impressive than the endless, infantile fucking anime memes that every Internet retard gets hard over!
More please!

It's probably a coincidence.
"Disponible en français" means "available in french". By the way, that is the sort of shit written on a DVD cover, that's a weird way to say you are french. The french sentence, the canadian flag means he is probably a french from the Province of Québec. He is speaking about Québec with his account since 2015. (cf. screenshot below)
David Kirk Ginder does not sounds french like Chauvin, Chantal Sarault and Gariépy.
