    To reduce the stickiness of rice id recommend washing it prior! It removes the starch and takes just an extra 5 minutes! (You fill the rice-cooker bowl with the dry rice and fill it with water, massage the rice until the water is clearer, and repeat until its semi-transparent)

      Also unless it's a specific kind of rice (for example basmati), all rice in Japan is sticky by default, since it is eaten with chopsticks (if it wasn't sticky you would need to eat each grain of rice one by one)

    Fun Fact, there was actually another company in Japan called "Logitec" (it's spelled the same as Logitech in Japanese), and they were in Japan before Logitech was able to open up anything in Japan, so Logitech had to change their name to Logicool in Japan only to avoid a name conflict.

      I mean the "reviews" (I know they're not reviews I just don't know what term to use) are basically as long as a Tiktok video. It's my gripe with this channel, really. He's always making compilation videos that are incredibly shallow and unsatisfying. I like the idea behind the video so I watch it but after I'm done I'm always left feeling like I got nothing out of it. I guess this works for him so it's not gonna change but I WISH this channel was more in depth than "wow! so cool! anyway, next product...".

    when we first got married, 1995, we went to register it with the local prefecture - everything is paper, they don't do anything official in japan with computers, its papers and family seals and the registry office was floor to ceiling wooden plan chests of documents. my in laws had f15's and blackhawks circling their house 24/7 too, they live next to an airbase.

    In the US, we used to have a department store chain before Internet shopping took over. It was called Best Products. You would shop and check the items to make sure they were what you wanted. You would then take the ticket, pay for the item, and they would bring it from the warehouse in the back to the pick up counter. It was marketed as a catalog store that allowed you to test out the products before buying.

      The trackball been available since the early 1990s. But mrwhostheboss was born in 1995, so I guess it's never really been popular in his conscious lifetime. To me, it's 1990s throwback technology that a few arthritic legal secretaries used at the law firms I've worked at. But the popularity of the trackpad on laptops really prevented adoption of the trackball, which was the only alternative mouse option for desktop users. It's cute he talks about it as cool Japanese tech.
