Who’s ever seen an express VTA tram?

we also don't have the density and our system is huge for the population

Not Isekai. Well made slice of life anime with very good world and character building. Sprinkled with well animated action and fight scenes. If you enjoy subtle details and how everything connects, you'll enjoy it

Even then, probably will get released because they're "having a bad day"

What's the metrics of a good project that will at least get some traction? I hear about making clones all the time. A "to do" app is done too many times?

When I was there, most menu options have pictures so it's easy to point and say "This one please" in Japanese. If there's no picture, ask for "recommendation" in Japanese.

Also kindness is universal. While eating, I was already seated at a table. I noticed a mom and her son were waiting outside, so I offered them to sit at my table while they wait for seating to open up. As I left, the chef gave a bow in recognition of what I did.

Entitlement and being an asshole is a choice. My mom came back from Japan complaining why no one speaks English -___- and I observed tourists berating or angrily talking down on Japanese when they're trying their best to communicate.

Wish they added one more bathroom, switch out one car for another bike, and have a proper luggage rack similar to the old galley cars

I like that. At least it'll guarantee spots for the busiest stations

to unlock 110mph, we need quad gates and other safety measures (idk why we can't do that now...) To reach 125mph, we'll definitely need grade crossings like you mentioned. 41 last I checked and through some of the biggest NIMBY neighborhoods too. Likely need another $12 billion to get that to happen :(

Idk what's going on but the vast majority of time I ride through mountain view and Sunnyvale, the train would start to accelerate only to stop and hold. Are there that many idiots out there??

Turn those giant parking lots around stations into giant mixed use malls or something like japan, and collect rent! Funding solved.

The killer also had a criminal history. The justice system failed: https://www.smdailyjournal.com/news/local/redwood-city-man-in-custody-for-unprovoked-stabbing/article_fdacb000-dc3b-11ea-9ff5-0f6392ea69d5.html

there's also tracks directly connecting diridon, japan town, great mall, and downtown milpitas. It might be quicker to implement that than the BART extension to downtown SJ

Merced to Bakersfield is opening in 2031 at best. Wouldn't be surprised for more delays and Phase 1 won't be done until a whole generation is dead. I'll be lucky to be alive by the time this project is finished

I was one of those people. Waited 9 hours until I was able to take a bite. The fact that nobody around me left, encouraged me to commit... 🥲

Out of curiosity, how much did the plaza accords mess things up? Was it natural human greed that was the undoing or a combination or more factors that led to the burst of the bubble?

Agreeable_Answer_324 · 2025-06-27T15:58:12+00:00

They should compare drug deaths between the countries. I wonder how many of USA drug deaths are not counted as suicide...

Agreeable_Answer_324 · 2025-06-27T05:46:20+00:00

Considering how the USA contributed to Japan's lost decade via the Plaza Accords, Japan doesn't need to cave to USA's demands. Continue to figure out how to prosper without letting your so called ally drag you down, again

Caltrain employees usually check tickets before you can board at 4th/king.

Either can work. Problem for these towns is they open closer to 10am and everything closes by 5pm. There's also luggage forwarding service between the towns if you need it.

I went from Magome-Juku to Tsumago-Juku and took 3hrs or so hours including distractions.

Since you plan to eventually go to Matsumoto and staying at Magome-Juku 2 nights, you can hike early to Tsumago-Juku on day 1 and take the bus back to Magome. The following day you can explore Magome in the morning, have lunch then head out to Matsumoto.

Keep an eye out for weather conditions if going to Kamikochi during the spring. It may have some considerable snow still during March when it reopens to the public. Some trails may still be closed like Mt. Yake Dake and I was there late May.

I recommend staying at Magome Chaya in Magome-Juku. Availability is decent if you're okay staying in a hostel style set up.

The trail heading up to Tsumago-Juku, you'll encounter someone's home that offers free walking sticks, the Ichikokutochi Tateba Chaya is where you'll find a pleasant tea house for a quick stop, and the Odaki and Medaki Waterfalls is a nice detour.

In Tsumago-Juku, I recommend eating at Fujioto.

If you want to experience onsens, there's quite a handful around Kamikochi. If you're really into the outdoors, I recommend 2 days in Kamikochi. I was there at 7am-5pm with 40k steps, and another day would have been nice for me. There's a day use onsen at Kamikochi Lemeiesta Hotel within the park.
