Tokyo cops bust school-girl sniff parlor in Takadanobaba
Male customers at Pure Doll JK Community are abl to smell the bodies of school girls attired in uniforms
Officers took Keiten Izuchi, the 33-year-old manager of parlor Pure Doll JK Community, and one other employee into custody for allegedly employing minors in violation of the Labor Standards Act by allowing a male customer smell the body of a 17-year-old girl employee attired in her underwear on October 2.
The menu for the establishment indicates that conversation is the basic service provided. However, options allow customers to select costumes, sniff the odor of the attendant?s hair and receive a slap in the face.
Fees at the parlor are priced at 1,000 yen [ed - $9/£5.60/€7] for every five minutes.

school-girl sniff parlor
In any country other than Japan, that would be a nonsensical jumble of words.

Takadanobaba, a fun place to visit when you are a student at Waseda University.
Although I'll admit I didn't do much outside the road from the station at Takadanobaba to the school. Spent a number of hours at the Bigbox there.
That said, 17-year-old can't be employed in Japan even for a part-time job? Seems lame.
-
It's not that 17-year-olds can't work. From the Labor standards Act:
Children under 15 full years of age shall not be employed as workers.
(with exceptions for some jobs that go as low as 12)
Possibly he demanded too many hours:
Article 60. The provisions of Articles 32-2 through Article 32-5 inclusive, Article 36 and Article 40 shall not apply to minors under 18 full years of age.
2.
With respect to the application of the provisions of Article 32 to children employed pursuant to Article 56, paragraph 2, the phrase "40 hours a week" in paragraph 1 of Article 32 shall be read as "40 hours a week including school hours", and the phrase "8 hours a day" in paragraph 2 of Article 32 shall be read as "7 hours a day including school hours".(Discourse, I really fucking mean 2, not 1!! It's a goddamn quote!!)
Possibly he fell afoul of nighttime working hours:
An employer shall not employ a person under 18 full years of age between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.; however, this shall not apply to males over 16 full years of age employed on the shift system.
-
Ah, so if the girl goes to school for 40 hours a week then she can't work.
If she drops out (as high school is not compulsory) then she could work 40 hours.
Makes sense.
I wonder if school club activities count toward those hours.

so i've been browsing with a new addon that inverts colors for night reading and....... THAT IS CREEPY WHEN INVERTED!
-
Actually… how does that image look through that add-on?
-

That is the inverted version. The normal looks like this:
-
I meant the Amy image I posted
-
I meant the Amy image I posted
Do it your fucking self, you lazy jerk. It takes like 2 seconds in Paint.net.
-
Because it's impossible for me to post from mobile?
Also got to love how you are so desperate to get one up on me you inverted the image for me. And that's all I wanted, to see the colours inverted
-
i have yet to figure out how it decides what images it inverts...
-
which interestingly, unlike @boomzilla's original is not inverted by the plugin.
-
and yet that's not what the plugin showed.
LEARNING! IS FUN!
-
My favourite bit about that is how he was so incensed I dared to ask what that image would look like inverted, he did it himself
-
But he did add an insult to it. :)
-
There were words on that image?
*looks*
Oh yeah! I see them now!
-
he did? it was blakey so i didn't pay too much attention to it.
i should probably have paid more attention, no?
-
-
Looks like a baby AI, Halo style.

I think that means he likes you!

This is awesome...but kind of creepy, too.
Origami Robot Folds Itself Up, Does Cool Stuff, Dissolves Into Nothing
Tiny self-folding magnetically actuated robot creates itself when you want it, disappears when you don't
-
Cool, but what's the point of destroying it at the end?
-
I'm going to have nightmwares about that picture...
-
Cool, but what's the point of destroying it at the end?
Do you want that thing climbing up your skin?
-
Cool, but what's the point of destroying it at the end?
This is the first time that a robot has been able to demonstrate a complete life cycle like this, and eventually, it’ll be doing it inside your body.
Of course, there's still the little magnet. I really suspect that it just so happened that the material dissolved in acetone and they decided to make it a feature.
-
you're welcome!

brb need a new avatar

....

I wish I had the Photoshop skills to edit this and leave the cake colors inverted but have a normal baby.
-
Do you want that thing climbing up your skin?
Meh. It's a robot. It's not like it's a real bug that might bite or sting or carry diseases. A robot could be designed to do those things, but so far, that doesn't really creep me out all that much.
>eventually, it’ll be doing it inside your body.
Where's that bit of information from? I missed that.I really suspect that it just so happened that the material dissolved in acetone and they decided to make it a feature.
Polystyrene, acetone, more a "given" than a "just so happened," but whatever. If it's intended that this be used as some kind of medical robot that will degrade and be eliminated when it's job is done, that's cool (as long as it doesn't gain sentience and decide it doesn't want to be eliminated), but they won't be making it out of polystyrene and injecting acetone into your body to dissolve it (I hope!).
-
Where's that bit of information from? I missed that.
The line I quoted was the last sentence of the first paragraph. Also, the last line in the article:
Also possible in the near future will be integrating self-folding sensors into the body of the robot, which could lead to autonomous operation, and eventually, doing all of this inside your body.

Kind of crude; a higher-res original would work better, but I don't have time today to do a better job:

Duh. I forgot there was even an article; I just watched the video.
-
Nice attempt but it just looks glitchy. I was kind of expecting it to look like a baby had just mutilated an alien or something.

THERE'S A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX!
-
The problem is that the cake and the shadowed areas of the skin are basically the same color, so it's pretty hard to select just the cake. The glitchy look would be improved, I think, with a higher-res version to work with, but it's probably not worth the bother, even if I had the time.

I gave it a shot. Not much better:

Here's one where I tweaked the cake's color:
-
I know what's bothering me about those (which are still plenty better than @HardwareGeek's version): the original has quite a range of shades of brown, corresponding to the thickness of the chocolate cake layer :) yet the retouched versions don't respect that correctly. It could be fixed, but it's still firmly in the uncanny glowing green cake valley.
The blue versions are much worse.
Filed under: it's all still much better than I can do
