Yeah, Japan still is like a giant ashtray last time I checked.

Tbh my wife and I smelled rotten eggs more often, at least in cities

I think because their busses use biodiesel?

Weird, the only times I've smelled biodiesel it's mostly smelled like french fries

[-] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Not sure if it makes a difference, but biodiesel can be made of quite a few different materials. Could depend on what the fuel was actually made from.

I support biodiesel made from the bodies of oil company executives.

rotten eggs smell usually comes from the sewage system

[-] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 1 points 2 years ago

I second that it's probably sewage unless it was actual trash waiting to be picked up.

It isn’t anymore. I checked yesterday. They still have cigarette vending machines and smoking floors in hotels, but most floors were nonsmoking, beer vending machines were more plentiful than cigarette ones, and no smoking announcements and signs were everywhere

Glad to know things are changing. In the late aughts my experience was a lot of closet sized bars where people hotboxed everyone in there (or whatever the tobacco equivalent is).

The laws changed prior to the olympics coming, so it's not like it was pre-corona and pre-olympics. Even some places that didn't legally have to change used corona as an excuse because of the recommendations of the government (not law). Still a lot of places with smoking.
