Comment In Japan... (Score 1) 361

When I travelled to Japan last year, a customs officer asked me if I had any illegal (uncensored*) porn.
They had a full picture book with photos of illegal items you could not bring to the country (firearms, drugs, porn, etc)
In the porn case they had a couple of pictured some porn DVD covers LOL

* As you may know, Japanese porn has censoring over the genital area...

Notice that IBM is not going with Chrome, though it is a faster and better browser for the moment.

As stated before, IBM wants to build a stable linux environment to eventually replace windows internally, and the chrome port for linux sucks ATM.

Also, IBM started testing Firefox for internal use for over 4 years now, when chrome didn't even exist.

That is why they went with Firefox.

The rest of the world calls us some form of "Amerika" in their own native languages, so why can't we?

AFAIK only in Japan they call the USA Amerika ( in katakana), the rest of the world calls you "Unites States" translated to their native tongues. "Estados Unidos" in spanish and portuguese speaking countries,"États-Unis" in french "Vereinigte Staaten" in german ones.
