Tkydon, could you explain why this is relevant? Does tax exposure in Japan affect transfers?

I use one made by the company Corona. If you are going to be gone, you can just put it on your kitchen counter and have the drain hose run into the sink.

I got a lifetime deal on Getflix and it has worked well so far. It has PC level and router level settings.

For mobile I use Proton's free version which so far has been plenty fast.

AppSumo may have some attractive discounts.

I spoke with a lawyer and with the labor standards office in July, and the lawyer said that I did not have a case. Nothing material has changed between then and now. I forgot to mention that mine is a mid-sized company, so the new power harassment law does not apply to it for another two years. Alth...
