    Yea, visiting Japan does feel like they are stuck in a retro vision of the future where everything was going to be driven by buttons. There are buttons everywhere, including at your table in a restaurant and on every toilet too. The toilets even have heated seats, bidets, and play music, all driven by buttons. They also have vending machines everywhere, which are covered in buttons. Ordering ramen at a restaurant? Make sure you tap all the buttons at the machine in the front to make your order.

    They still haven’t quite adopted the touch screen fully.
