Fuck this company.

They’ve been awful for many, many years at this point. I’ve no idea why people keep giving them money and expecting them to not be awful.

I’m in my 40s and I’m with them. Movies can be cool, but I tend to like an interactive experience more.

I don’t disagree, but the majority of Japanese are just using whichever device is in their pocket (largely iPhones or Android, some feature phones, the occasional tablet, and much more rarely (outside of official business work), an actual full-sized computer).

We basically have this in Japan. People will put their bike back to factory for the inspection and then change it out. They get caught rarely, but not often. loud-assed 暴走族 (bousouzoku) groups love to ride around in the countryside where I live and I can hear them from quite far. I really wish the police would do something about them.

I dislike both, but am still voting. In first-past-the-post, I end up voting against the worst choice in the presidential election which means I must choose the other candidate that has a chance of winning. I hate that it’s this way, but neither not voting nor voting for a third party in this presidential election will change that. I can’t wait until we have actual ranked-choice/star/etc. voting and get rid of FPTP. I do vote for the most progressive candidates regardless of affiliation in local elections but, well, it’s a rural red-state district so that’s unfortunately not a high bar (and I live overseas so the amount I can be directly involved in anything is quite limited).

there is literally no correct answer

I deleted mine years ago but, in Japan, it’s still one of the main ways small shops communicate with their customers. Some use FB or insta instead. They don’t have the knowledge, money, or desire to create a whole website that is far more difficult to interact with and update than the platforms that are free, people use, and are easy to update.

I remember a few snippets. Hatchet in fifth grade. The outsiders at some point. High school English is mostly blank until senio year at a new school. We did a whole thing on middle English and Chaucer which is probably why I remember.

I’m torn between “no teeth (just gums) and a mouth stuffed with chocolate pudding (specifically the one that many American buffet restaurants use)” and “crunching jagged jawbreakers (or rocks)”

Absolutely. I keep meaning to try that but always forget until I’m already making coffee

I appreciate the answer (iced coffee is really popular here in Japan). I was mostly poking fun at how someone would make coffee out of ice (like ice tea – isn’t that just cold water steeped in other water?)

Ice coffee sounds difficult to make. Do I have to roast the ice first? Should I go for a light roast or dark on it?

Not in my country!

(Seriously, though, Japan doesn’t do joint bank accounts).

Will do. This morning I have work to do outside.

I will also note that there are three patterns when I post a comment that may or may not be related:

• it just publishes when I hit the button
• I hit the button, it thinks for a second, and then the button is intractable again. Pushing it again works so far in every case (i.e. it seems something goes wrong but no UI error. I haven’t had dev tools open to see what happens there. This feels like it took to long for me to reply in some cases, but not all).
• I hit post and get moved to a new page which is just my post with a preview. I’m not sure if this is just how it works with certain sites or something or also related.

I only use Firefox at this time, so that shouldn’t be it.

Maybe they’re leaving room for improvement?

Low ping, high packet loss, and someone picking up the damned phone. BRB, need to yell at cloud.

6 is my personal favorite, though I’ve not played them all. I enjoyed the MMOs for a while, but haven’t played any single-player game newer than 7 back on playstation. I did buy JP 2 or 3 that wasn’t released in the US, but I just never had time to mess with it. I always think about playing a newer one, but the lack of time to devote to it generally stops me (and, if it requires a console, that’s probably not going to work since I only have PC and a switch).

Are overseas uni students allowed to work? That might be it. I never looked at UK visas to know the rules on that one.

The only time I ever liked plain milk was still warm out of the cow. These days, I just don’t drink milk except for a very rare (couple of times a year) chocolate milk or milkshake where I don’t taste the milk itself, really.

Breed and diet definitely impact milk flavor and fat percentage, but some types of pasteurization seem to as well.

This is not an endorsement to drink milk that has not been pasteurized.

Aside from that, particularly with regard to colostrum, some people think treating the milk can damage things. As mentioned, I’m not a milk drinker to begin with, but I have no idea if (a) there are any studies showing benefits or even effects of drinking colostrum, particularly as an adult and from something other than a human or (b) regardless of point a if there is even any study on heat damaging it. I watch a lot of farming/homesteading content and some people are really into this.

small rocks? no. wood? … a witch!
