You can see the following three numbers: Wealth, Income, Calculated tax Here's what it says for me (I've censored some stuff with ): Born: 19** Wealth: 5** *** Postal code/area: **…

This reminds me of the project I started trying to translate Heiretsu. I have twice given up on how to unpack and repack the script.

I recently learned that Morocco observes daylight saving time all year... Except for Ramadan. So sometimes they use standard time in winter, sometimes in summer. Seems to me it wou…
