Thanks! I’m in Japan, but glad to know this exists!

I think this is something that is better provided by government. I think the question should be why doesn’t California have an early warning alert system similar to the likes of Japan, which will notify all cellphone and smartphone users in affected areas regardless of their brand of device?
I recommend a combination of the following Safari extensions: Stop the Madness Pro, UnTrap for YouTube, and SponsorBlock.
Total cost was about the same as one month of ad free YouTube. Works beautifully.
I can finally enjoy YouTube again after giving up jailbreaking.
Making some shortcuts retrains muscle memory. I set a dedicated tab in Safari just for YouTube so it doesn’t clutter up my regular browsing.
And where I live you pay for SMS. So blue is free, but green is not. Also helpful.
They both show fine in a mobile browser. I guess the OP wants an app which aggregates both into a nice layout without the need to login. Kind of like how many lemmy apps have a guest mode (ie no login but can browse freely)
“The Soundtrack to the movie of my life” by Friendly. At least that’s what I imagined as a teenager lol.
It doesn’t have ads if you use a kids profile, even on the main client. I’ve been using the unified interface on Apple TV for almost a year now. Nothing is really changing.
Ooh I had that. Now my kids play with it. I hope you get one eventually. It’s still awesome!
Thanks. I’ve found that once it is stable I just don’t bother with updates. I have to reboot the system maybe once every six months.
I am aware of and interested in home assistant and may make the switch when I move to a bigger residence. I do like the idea of having most of the logic on the HA side instead of having to script it all on the HomeKit side, which is just clunky and lacks any real backup options.
But homebridge has worked well for my first foray into home automation, and is pretty good for relatively simple setups.
Homebridge is a way to get non-HomeKit devices into HomeKit. It’s what I am using for most of my stuff. It works pretty well in my opinion.
All airplanes are still using leaded fuels
Jet fuel doesn’t contain lead. Only the avgas used by smaller planes with piston engines.
Still, it’s unbelievable that this fuel is still being used in 2024!
Let’s say for arguments sake the original price was 10. Now say you wanted to buy three, but there was only two choices: 10 each, or 2 for 16. Then you would end up paying 26. But with 3 for 24 it is still saving you money.
I see. Yeah, consommé is the most prominent stock in the supermarkets, followed by chicken, and like you said beef. I’ve never used pork broth myself, but I wonder if this is what you’re looking for.
Japan doesn’t have pork broth. (Biggest culture shock for me)
As in ramen? Have you ever been to Kyushu? These things are regional.
tatemae is the romanisation. It is your public attitude, which may be different to your real attitude (hon’ne).
I’m a permanent resident of Japan and am raising a family here. I think you would get better responses if you posed more specific questions, or provided examples of what kind of misunderstandings people have experienced and posted about online.
I find Japan a pleasant place to live, but it is far from perfect, just like any society. The cost of living is quite reasonable compared to many other countries, which makes the lower salaries go further.
People are generally friendly, but you sometimes have to read between the lines, as people tend to be less direct so as to avoid confrontation (“It is a little difficult” is a polite way to say “No!” for example).
Anyway, if you have any other questions I’ll be around.
Super 8?
Wow, what a scam!
Dash cams are often exposed to extreme heat due to their placement. I wouldn’t trust a used one not to fail due to this. Hell, I’ve had brand new ones fail after about six years because of heat damage. My car navigation is suffering the same fate. It sucks when you don’t have covered parking.
It’s not about losing face. It is the fact that seishain, or permanent employees are very hard to fire. The company needs to keep a record of the employee’s failures.
In addition, the company needs to implement and execute improvement plans. The results of those need to be reviewed. The next plan has to be implemented. And so on.
Only when they fail to show improvement a certain number of times (I don’t know exactly) can they be legally fired. You can’t just fire someone like in the U.S. style of at will employment. That would be a lawsuit waiting to happen.
So it is easier and cheaper to “persuade” the employee to resign.
However, this terrible behavior is considered to be power harassment, and all large companies now have ethics hotlines. Also, companies have to provide annual trainings on issues like this. So, I hope this practice is decreasing.
