I'm also an arachnologist and it's been a long time since my last renewal

I guess I should be getting a "license renewal" notice soon.

I was asked to do the last written exam with a kiosk terminal

I'm used to seeing a terminal （ computer ・ monitor ） every day on the internet

I did it with a terminal. I can't immediately understand the English text that appears on the monitor.

I think I failed the first time and finally got it the second time.

I guess they still have a written paper test ？

I must take the written test next time...

I have not been able to do any outdoor walking recently due to the continuous rainy weather.

On rainy days, I go to LA Fitness and ride the treadmill

It is boring because the scenery never changes.

There is a TV screen in front of me, but the TV broadcast is also very boring.

I will walk in Shikoku again this spring, but I have to be fit enough to walk more than 20 km a day.

Fortunately, it's sunny this morning, so I'll walk around the neighborhood for 1 ～ 2 hours.

But it's 48 F outside, so cold...

Ahhhh,

＞ You can also choose Japanese

apparently, but I'm not as good with Japanese. I've been taking English lessons on how to drive, run, turn, change lanes, etc., and have been driving with English in my head for decades, so for example, when it says "turn left," I can no longer pinpoint whether it is equivalent to Left Turn. For more than 40 years now.

＞ Print it off the computer on the spot

I wonder if Kyobi would do that in their very busy DMV office. At least the DMV office near me at Sherman Way and De Soto Ave. doesn't seem to do it. Anyway, there are only a few Japanese who can speak and read Japanese in San Fernando Valley where I live. In other words, only a few former Japanese who can read Japanese come to the above DMV offices every year, and I doubt that they will ever do anything to make it easier for them.

＞ I told that attendant that I couldn't use the computer,
＞ he said that he got about 4 questions per page and got 5 total and took the test. Well, I understand. I wonder if the DMV in West Valley, where I go, will do such a time-consuming thing.


＞ I bet you've never taken the department test before, even though you're over 70

No, I'm so foggy these days that I forgot when I last renewed my license. ； ∀ ；

The only thing I remember is that I took the written exam
in something a little bigger than the kiosk terminal at the airport. I still don't know why it was so much harder to understand the same written questions than the pen and paper method.

I should be used to this since the days of DOS, when computer monitors only showed black and white text, but
the DMV terminal made it harder to understand the text than the pen and paper method. But next time
I will have no trouble since I know what it is like. I think.

Ahhhhhh,

I don't know if you didn't understand what I meant or if I wrote incomprehensible sentences,

In #424, DMV's monitor text display was totally different from my desktop monitor display,

and the same

The next license renewal is in 2027, so I hope the monitor display will be totally different then.

Ah, yes, the last one may have been an old TV CRT instead of an LCD display.

Anyway, it was an old display. 3 years from now, it will definitely be an LCD display.
