This is just the way at least 50% of websites still look there and it goes up to 90% for small businesses.How did they keep these websites up? From the looks of it, this website was made in 2005 but has modern updates today.
Because it works and there's nothing wrong with it.

>noooo you need to use my stock corporate slop infinite scrolling template!>you need to download 80mb of data when you access the website!>you need telemetry!
>>108468883>How did they keep these websites up?Web standards for things like HTML and Javascript remain compatible and otherwise you just need a webserver.
>>108468899god i hate infinite scrolling forums so much, and i hate executive retards pushing that shit even more (i blame women)
>>108468883Koei official website still has fuck tons of ancient Flash websites that no longer work.

>How did they keep these websites up?What do you mean? It's easier to keep an old website running than a new one lmao.
>>108468883I just hope their security isn't as outdated as the appearance of their websites; someone could hack all of Japan.
>>108469913>japan>online securitylol
>>108469913don't walk into a building with a disguise and record fax lines to play back for espionage
>>108468883Because Japanese people aren't retards who need everything spoonfed with giant text & images telling you exactly where to go. They can just have all of the information presented to them and navigate it properly. If only the Western internet still had decent UI...
>>108470059>>Because Japanese people aren't retardslol
yet another on the very long list of reasons why the japs are based

Come home white man
>>108470256
>>108468883They just don't care about modern frameworks and designs. A typical japanese website consists of a single php file that handles everything and is impossible to maintain because it's 5000 lines long. But It werks and they're happy about it.
>>108468883It's called functionalism. American multinational corporations forgot about it ~10 years ago. They think having 24pt fonts and AI generated paragraphs are just fine because the internet is just like the boomer cable tv.
>>108470366It's a funny thing that when you open almost any website you are better off by scaling the page to 60-80% because the typography is so fucking bad.
>>108470256I bet the maids wear masks and you can't even smoke inside
>>108469215
>>108470379As per normal.

>>108470806That's why I don't bother
>>108468883That site looks more soulful than 99% western corpo slop.
>>108469077>Today is Friday>in California
>>108469202>but the site doesn't even load quicklymost jap servers are extremely slow to route non-japanese clients.
>>108470378>It's a funny thing that when you open almost any website you are better off by scaling the page to 60-80% because the typography is so fucking bad.They are not bad, they are just not designed for average desktops. View them on a Mac that has 4k retina displays, or on the average 7" mobile phone, and they'll look fine. Anything else, they do not test nor care about.
>>108470835smoking is for losers

>>108468883this is the way the internet SHOULD be
>>108468883Nigger you're on fucking 4chan, a website looking pretty much the same as 2 decades ago, who the fuck fucking cares
>>108469006Okay that's betterGood job anon
>>108469006I admit this ruined some of the soul I cannot explain it but I see what people mean nowThe original makes me feel like maids built the site or at least someone that cares much more about maids than web design
japanese are famously computer illiterate and it shows if you ever play any japanese game from era before they started using western game engines
>>108468883Web 3.0 or whatever is genuinely a plague.>Sites can barely load, even if it's just text>Have to load a bunch of ad and tracking shit>Every site now has to warn you about your data instead of having it all off by defaultWorst of all is that they make viewing those sites in mobile in even worse. Its almost impossible to browse Best Buy on mobile because of how slow it is.
>>108469006this is literally moloch i am crying
>>108468883The original purpose of the internet was to convey information to other people before it turned into the abomination it is now.
>>108468883Japanese society has long been romanticized in the West, but once you start noticing certain details, a different side becomes visible. A simple example: about a century ago, the average height of people there was actually higher than that of their neighbors, but later the growth basically stalled, and in some periods even declined. It’s not that the country is poor. It feels more like there are strong, invisible social expectations, women are not supposed to grow too tall, men don’t seem comfortable standing out physically, and people live within a very tight set of unwritten rules about what you should and shouldn’t do.This is the same kind of thing people notice when they joke that the country still uses Yahoo or fax machines. That discipline creates stability, and from the outside it can look orderly and even admirable. But when you look more closely, it can also feel restrictive, even a bit unsettling. It’s hard to believe that this kind of social atmosphere wouldn’t affect corporate culture as well. In that sense, it may help explain why an nation which once dominated the global auto industry hesitated for so long on electric vehicles and ended up being overtaken in the new wave of technology.Another thing is that the culture can be very unrealistic. You can see this in their movies, anime, and literature. There’s this strong belief in the power of belief itself, like if you just believe hard enough, things will work out. That mindset shows up in real issues too, like rare earth supply, military readiness, and national strategy. It might actually be one of the countries with the strongest information bubbles in the world. From top to bottom, people tend to believe what they want to believe, even when reality says otherwise. And when reality does show up, the reaction is often to pull back quickly and say the problem isn’t real.
>>108468883>How did they keep these websites up? From the looks of it, this website was made in 2005 but has modern updates today.The old web standards haven't changed, so updating the server doesn't break the site. And if the site doesn't let users post arbitrary things, it's 100% secure by design.Keeping sites like this alive requires nothing more than just occasionally updating the server software.
>>108472415I know this is an AI post but the reason Japan has that fucked system is because they are not trained to argue, they are trained to follow. If someone argues a point, even if it's something as simple as "what if", that's seen as extremely rude and insulting. Someone has to fuck up catastrophically for them to realise they have to change, and even then the person who fucked up still retains his job, they just put him in some task that's beneath him with no chance of ever getting a new job. The idea is so they end up leaving on their own, instead of the company firing the person - putting all the shame on the person who abandoned his employer, instead of the employer itself.They are crazy fucking backwards in some ways.
>>108468883full of personality,it conveys all the information it needs to.what is wrong with it?
>>108468883Japan's internet never left the mid-2000s, and that's based.
>>108470041you don't need security when your website is a semi interactive flyer for your store
>>108469913They'd mostly fallback to offline and work just fine, unlike the Optus outage which left Australians unable to buy a coffee or unlock the door to their apartments.
Go onto animenewsnetwork they have websites listed for anime on their encyclopedia page Websites for dead forgotten anime from the 90s are still up in some casesI couldn't run the flash elements though
>>108469099Cool
>>108468883why are they so sovlful and so souless at the same time?

>>108468883I dig it, no bloat, actual aesthetics.>>108468888Checked.
Mate, the japanese still use fax constantly. If a website works, why would they change it? Japan is stuck in the 2000s
>>108473889Everyone still uses fax retard
>>108474333If you're living 30 years in the past, yeah. If you live anywhere that doesn't cater to old farts who refuse to let go of old technology, you just use e-mail like a normal person
>>108474381Medical field still uses fax or e-fax because thats the way to legally send certain documents by law
>>108474394I work in a (non-medical) office, and we don't use a fax machine. Technically, one of our copy machines lets you "fax", but what it does is scans the paper you feed it and emails a .pdf to a service which then would fax it to an actual fax number. Except that's hypothetical, literally everyone we deal with just wants you to email your documents as an attachment or upload it to a website somewhere, no one can recall ever actually using this function. Only some businesses still using faxes is the opposite of "everyone."
>>108468883Let me guess, you "NEED" more
>>108473616>AI crapDefine “better” in this scenario.
>>108468883Looks efficient and effective. I wish more of the net was like this so it wasn't a huge waste of bandwidth.
>>108468919Ruffle exists and it's pretty good.
>>108474394>Medical field still uses fax or e-fax because thats the way to legally send certain documents by lawOh, so in your backwards ass country that caters to old farts who refuse to let go of old technology they still use fax?That's not really "everyone" now is it?
>>108474498>its ai therefore badschizo
>>108468883Japan is a high-trust society, while>pretending that something improved by using fad design>trying to monetize on user data and cookies>shoving your face with way more ads than neededAre cheap tricks that corrode trust long-term
>>108468883Web 3.0 is trash and we should never have strayed from the path of pure HTML/CSS.
>>108474569I'm pretty sure he's talking about America>>108474632You don't even know what web 3.0 is, even if you're right that modern design is ass
>>108470932Winners don't use drugs!
>>108468883Reminder, you can blame the Enshittification of the internet to the iphone.
>>108474634I'm approaching Web 3.0 from the sort of Tim Berners Lee semantic web definition. The idea that our data is machine readable and shareable across the internet. That has essentially already happened with our data being taken, used, and abused by corporations (primarily meta and google) to target ads, sell things, etc to us.
>>108474660ok retard
>>108474634>I'm pretty sure he's talking about AmericaI know, I thought that was implied when I wrote "backwards ass country"
>>108474660Anon probably though of web 3.0 as the crypto scam instead
>>108472415>>108472628Japanese people might be fucking retarded but Japan as a whole works really well. Public transport for example is amazing compared to the West.
>>108471600>that picThat's how I feel when people give me crap for driving a Toyota™
>>108474570Unironically yes.
>>108472415Self-discipline is freedomIf there's no order and expectations like in the current West, you can't do anything without lawyers or bodyguardsAnd this even ruins the concept of rebellion, because there's not much to rebel against in the West, and if you try to look different it spawns a "looking different" crowd like what happened to blue hairIt's like a game of chess, it's only fun because you can't throw pieces at your opponent
>>108474997What happens when one isn't disciplined in Japan and starts going against their societal norms?
>>108471526It's literally worse discord, yet ironically also filled with those questioning why everyone moves to discord.
>>108475019I don't live in Japan myself, but it's safe to assume they face societal pressure and possible isolation, forming groups like those delinquent gangsThe difference I assume, based on their lower violence rate and higher trust, is that this doesn't escalate into serious violence as much as in the USI personally live in a low-trust and high-violence country, so I can see the value of restrictions
>>108468883SOVLvgh, the japanese just do it better
>>108474880Same. I just want it to keep going and get good mileage. I don't give half a shit what country designed or manufactured it. I bought a used one at 170k and the worst thing that's happened in 50k is a vacuum hose falling off. Meanwhile, the of Chevy that I used to have blew an alternator every 50k miles.
>>108469006SOVLESS
>>108474997Not only discipline, but a sense of honor. Even if I know that I could get away with all kinds of crap, I try to hold myself accountable and do what I consider to be worthy of respect. Few really understand the value of living without a feeling of shame that comes from not being a piece of shit. It takes the weight off.
>>108475019They use the phrase "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down" pretty often when they talk about such things.
>>108468888Good work, anon. It turns out you don't need to reinvent the wheel every five seconds to make something good.
