Pretty much. Though it is a very international thing, I think chinese websites in general look more "kawaii" if we use the world like the author(?). For eg. take look at www.ui.cn

Why did he decide to call it kawaiization? I don't think this kind of design is inspired from japan, even though the rounded corners, soft color palette can be considered "cute", they exist because they are perceived as "modern web design". I put it in quotes but honestly I don't hate it. It is pleasing to the eyes.

Russia took crimea without any issue. Do you really think anything will happen if china took taiwan by force? It's a matter of time before china takes taiwan.

type-2 | 6 years ago | on: Lungs heal damage from smoking
I pick up smoking a few in a gap of a few months. Then I feel guilty and stop for a few months. I have been smoking about 50 cigs year. Truth is I don't think I can really quit. Forget addiction, I just like it that much. It is so much fun. I remember my first cig. It was so much fun. That's all it took

I opened their website and they show refilling generators. In india electricity is unrelieable even in the best cities(including bangalore.) So every office and apartment has generators.

Maybe a tool like two sticks that can pin down rioters in the neck hold them there would be more effective.

I don't have a aadhar card yet and I don't intend to get one. I have a pan card but I had it made a few years ago. I am not aware if things have changed, I'll ask around tomorrow for ground information.

you don't need an aadhar card to open a bank account only a pan card(no biometrics) issued by tax dept, which you can link with your aadhar card by your own choice. The govt wants you to do this but the caanot force you as the supreme court has said.

Maybe a typo? Should be around 157dpi for a 14 inch screen. Though I absolutely agree with the general idea, high dpi screens (over 200 dpi) do make the experience much much better.
