Yep! So convenient /s
It sucks, yes. But, if you select the “web” tab instead of the “all” tab at the top of the page, you’ll get something more akin to what you’re looking for. There’s probably even a way to script it so that it defaults to that view.
At least half the money is used for the guest’s experience (food, open bar and so on) including return gifts (as is the norm in Japan). This is generally a gift catalog which guests can choose an item from. It is surprisingly fun as it feels like you’re not the one spending more way. They have catalogs of different values to need individuals’ needs.
Close friends will often plan surprise acts to be performed during the wedding (singing or dancing and so on). So it is not entirely up to the host.
It is still customary to invite one’s boss and co-workers too. So yeah, it is culturally different from western countries I guess.
Sounds practical. Who wants to go into debt for a wedding?!
That’s true. If you just want to get married without a ceremony, you can do it for free here. It’s also common to get married on paper months before the actual party/ceremony which is great for getting name changes and other affairs in order before the actual wedding ceremony, which can reduce stress.
Meh it’s normal in Japan. Although rather than actually setting a price, it is just a cultural norm to gift money. ¥30,000 (about 200 USD right now) is the basic minimum, but it goes up based on relationship. If you plan and negotiate with venues well, you can end up paying nothing out of pocket.
If you’re open to something a little different, Japanese fried chicken is awesome and very simple to make. This recipe works well for me.
Oh yeah, you got me there. Didn’t consider that you were implying that. Whoops! My bad. I’ll leave the above comment though in case others find it useful somehow. Thanks!
Articles (a/an/the) are supposed to be omitted from news headlines, so nothing to fix here. You can check the rules for writing headlines here have a great day!
That’s totally true. I do see where they have posted. I personally disagree that it is mildly infuriating though. We’re all allowed our own opinions. If I was working in tech support and had the OP call up, their actions would come across as mildly infuriating.
OPs bank has provided the solution. For whatever reason, they’re choosing not to use it. I think they’re making a mountain out of a molehill.
Take a photo of the QR code with your smartphone, or display the QR code on your phone, and scan the screen with your webcam. Problem solved.
lol wtf an inactivity fee for a virtual prepaid card is charged every month? Who hurt them?
It looks similar to what I drive. I like it. It is spacious enough for a family. It is also roomy enough for a tallish person (around 190cm) to drive comfortably. My partner uses it for their commute daily, and we use it for family outings or shopping.
I do also walk or cycle for certain things, but where I live a car is a necessity if you have a family.
They use a lot less fuel and have a much smaller footprint, which is good. But have just enough oomph to go on the expressways here.
Zero here for me. You using an ad blocker?
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.
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.
Has anyone else noticed that alarms and timers don’t reduce in volume if you are using the device, or when you pick up the device and it recognises you with Face ID anymore?
It’s really annoying to get a full volume alarm when you’re using the device.
iPhone 13 if it matters. Toggled attention aware on and off and also restarted the phone without luck.
Hi there, thanks for the great software. Currently on 0.4.1 (4), but I’ve noticed the bug on a few previous versions.
When viewing saved comments under the user profile, everything appears fine. However, if you try to scroll it instantly crashes back to the springboard. I have a suspicion that it is something to do with the fact that I have saved many comments which include YouTube links. Has anyone else noticed this?
Edit: switched to another account to play around, and I could replicate the crash just by saving a comment which contained an embedded picture.
First, thank you for building this wonderful app.
This is my favorite feature of the app: the ability to return to the previous post by swiping from right to left.
With the latest TestFlight version, I noticed a new bug: the text size on the returning post is set to the system size, and once complete open, switches to the user’s choice of text size. The result is a little jarring.
To replicate, set the text time to something other than the system size. View a post, go back. And then swipe across to return to the post. You should be able to see the effect.
On TestFlight. iPhone 8. Cancel buttons (ie on comment screen) and (x) buttons (ie share as image screen) don’t work. Can only dismiss by swiping down.
I love this app, and keep coming back to it after testing other apps, too.
However, I find myself tapping thumbnails which I think are images, which instead open another site. Maybe it is my way of browsing, but I have noticed that other apps I display the content type, which makes for a more desirable browsing experience for me at least. Is this something that is in the works?
On iPhone 8. Create post looks like !this
Amazon announced monthly prices will increase by ¥100, and yearly prices by ¥1,000.
What do you think? Personally, if it helps drivers get a better wage I am all for it.
I’ve got a bug that I haven’t been able to pin down. Set the default feed to subscriptions but sometimes upon launch (after killing the app) it is set to all. I haven’t been able to figure out what is causing it as it seems random. Has anyone else noticed this?
It’s summer festival time. Just ate yakisoba at my local festival. It’s ¥400 but the noodles always seems thicker than what the supermarket sells. What gives?
Anyway, what are your go to festival foods?
Thanks for the awesome update just now. I’m sorry, I haven’t gotten around to figuring out how to use GitHub. I hope this will get seen.
When not using the system font size, some parts are rendered in an odd size compared to before.
Also, I can’t find the sort by new option anymore.
Also, long post titles are making the compact view less compact (maybe due to the font issue).
On an unrelated note, my .world account still cannot enable notifications but my other ones can. It just hangs on the spinning progress wheel. I am not sure how to go about fixing it anymore.
I really appreciate all you have done. Also, there was no reason to apologise for taking a hiatus. This should be a project of passion not a job.
I hope I have not come across as demanding. I am loving what you guys are doing.
I’ll try to learn GitHub so I can post bugs in your preferred manner.
Thank again!
When you open a new post which doesn’t contain any comments, you latest comment from whatever post is displayed ever so briefly before the “no comments” message is shown. I managed to screen record it but I’m not sure how to attach a video.
Inflation sucks!
In the last year, shredded “natural cheese” had almost doubled in price. The cheap alternatives branded as “97% cholesterol cut shred” are complete ass, and cannot even be legally called cheese.
I was used to paying ¥1,000/kg then ¥1,000/700g for shredded gouda (max value store brand), but now it is ¥1,000/600g cheddar/mozzarella mix.
I have a variety of supermarkets nearby. Also kaldi, Gyomu super, a-price etc. I just don’t want to have to keep buying 1kg bags when it is hit or miss. If you have any solid recommendations please post them here.
Im in Kyushu, but location isn’t important. Any leads are appreciated.
Let’s kick up the participation in this community with some general discussion.
So, what interesting tidbit did you come across this week?
Kind of random, but I learned that bull bars on vehicles we banned in the late 90’s for safety reasons.
Why YSK: Google returns reddit results very often when searching, which many of us want to avoid clicking, to avoid sending traffic to reddit.
I’ve seen many posts on how to avoid sending traffic to reddit for android users, but nothing for iOS.
Now, most of the options I’ve found are not free, but I had already bought StopTheMadness before. You can simply add a rule to redirect reddit.com to teddit.net. Then, you can still click those google results without hesitation.
It should be noted this won’t work system wide in safari web view, only in the safari app.
Normally at this time of the year, the convenience stores are overflowing with mint chocolate flavored products, for better or worse (looking at you, FamilyMart mint chocolate pancakes).
However, this year, I’m yet to find anything except for some scant chocolate offerings.
What’s up in your neck of the woods?
For the past two years I have been actively avoiding places which refuse to accept electronic pavement methods. It is just so much easier to manage finances (for me at least).
I’ve even been in the situation where the only cashless payment which was accepted was SUICA, so I charged my SUICA at the register on my iPhone via credit card!
Unfortunately, there are a few holdouts (looking at you local clinics etc).
What do you do when you encounter an establishment which only accepts cash?
I just realised I didn’t restock my emergency bag with food so was wondering what you guys would put in?
Previously, I put soy joy (wouldn’t recommend, as they were awful), granola bars, a jar of peanut butter (easy to eat, high in calories), and a bag of Kit Kats (gotta have something nice).
Even if you don’t have an emergency bag, I would love to hear what ideas you have.
Well the rainy season is here, so what tips or tricks do you have to endure it?
Workman sells rubber “hiking” boots which are great as rain boots, but not so comfortable for those with big feet.
Let’s try to be active and build this community, too!
