I'm not a daily reader of Japanese news, but I wonder if "Japan First" has the same hateful connotations that "America First" does. Is the Japanese Prime Minister calling for entire swaths of people to be deported? Is the Japanese PM publicly fomenting hatred for "others"? Is the PM sending out undercover goon squads to round up people based on race?

Just to be "that guy"

The LD50 (median lethal dose) of caffeine is generally estimated to be between 150 and 200 mg per kilogram of body weight. However, some case reports have indicated lethal effects at doses as low as 57 mg/kg. A toxic dose of caffeine, leading to adverse effects like tachycardia, arrhythmia, and seizures, is estimated to be around 1.2 grams. Lethal doses of caffeine, reported in some studies, have been found at blood concentrations of 80 to 100 g/mL, which can result from ingesting approximately 10 grams or more of caffeine.

functions basically the same as last year's model

I kind of want it to function like last year's model. I don't buy a phone to tinker with, or really do whiz-bang stuff: Just texting, maybe a phone call now and then, some calendar stuff, calculator, etc. You know, basic phone stuff. I don't want to have to relearn the phone's OS just because a new device came out.

I'd be careful of this attitude. It strikes of Thomas Watson's, "Only five computers worldwide," and the obsolescence of silent movies, among other examples of trends that were considered passing fads that actually became societal revolutions.
