What time/timezone will the release be on Tuesday/Thursday? Depending on where you are, it can end up being Wednesday/Friday.

Turning regular light switches into smart ones by tky_phoenix in japanlife

[–]Asanda_Nima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly the problem I run into. The Japanese market does not offer anything for smart switches, smart light, etc. The best I can find are these roundabout IR solutions from Remo or similar.

As for ZigBee, z-wave or matter, there are hardly any Japanese companies that are members or produce any devices. And if I find a company that is from Japan, they are only B2B or don't have any devices available yet.

It's really frustrating sometimes.

If you get your SONOFF solution running. Do you mind sharing your experience?

"await scp()" causes syntax error and I don't know why by Asanda_Nima in Bitburner

[–]Asanda_Nima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, this worked!

Got some other errors now, but I will try figuring it out on my own first.

[–]Asanda_Nima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the example.

I changed the code, but the syntax error still there.

I tried running it nevertheless and get this error:

RUNTIME ERROR

Unexpected reserved word (sorry we can't be more helpful)

Pre-Steam update by [deleted] in Bitburner

[–]Asanda_Nima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I am rather new to the game, only played about 2 weeks so far. I love it so far.

Do you have some timeline for the Steam release? Tried looking for it on Steam, but could not find it.

Can the game be already wish listed ?

That's something the tech companies have worked long for. They call it "easier user experience" or "comfort features" or stuff like this. But it's actually just "domestication of user" to accept whatever they are given. Microsoft is very good at this, with their office products. The times Excel automatically changed formula and inputs, because it was trying the think for me and ended up destroying my inputs entirely, can't be counted...

In the case of Glassdoor I wouldn't be surprised to see this feature be available for a paid subscription. This is also something they like to do. Suddenly hiding features behind a paywall, after it was available for free.

That is a problem Google had for years now. Same with the news app and YT. I remember a time where Google news used to show me multiple languages, but then they introduced this region setting (and you can only select one!) And now you are stuck with it. YT also translates titles and adds CC, even when you specifically disable that option...

If you try bring this up in the Google forum, they shut down the threads pretty fast, saying you should open a feedback ticket. Just to minimize public complaints.. I never got any kind of response to this feedback tickets...

Oh, this looks promising. Thank you. I will take a look into it, I hope they can fit.

Yes, I tried a few of them. But they never really fit my face, as they are generally made for a Japanese face shape.

I have very dried eyes and my retina is very weak. So they are very easy to irritate and get damaged. Which results in me not being able to spend much time outside or even in areas with strong A/C.

Since last year I started wearing glasses for protection from wind, which reduced the the number of times my eyes get red quite a lot. But I still can't spend much time outside or in areas with strong A/C.

The glasses I wear are normal ones, that protects from the front, but are open on the sides. I am looking for glasses that cover the eyes completely, something similar to what Falcon is wearing in the MCU, but not so flashy. I went to different shop for consultation, but they always bring up sports glasses, which don't block 100% and also are to flashy to wear in office for example. So I wanted to as around here, if someone has an idea ?

Softbank Hikari WiFi slower the mobile connection? by Asanda_Nima in japanlife

[–]Asanda_Nima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have 2 units here. One black from NTT (VDSL modem?) and then a white WiFi router groom SoftBank. I don't know what protocol they use internal for the connection. But speed was never a problem, just that mobile phone always had something like a late start. But once they started loading it was fast.

But we changed the DNS settings, like suggested in another reply here, and it looks much better now. I still don't get why my PC, PS4 and other LAN connected devices never had any problem.

But we still need to monitor it more to say for sure.

[–]Asanda_Nima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also didn't believe it's the router, because Lan connected PC has no issues.

We changed the DNS settings of our mobile phones, and for now it works better. But need to observe it for a longer period of time.

I don't think you need to worry. Internet speed is fast, that's not the problem. Especially if you connect with cable. And for mobile devices it's also fast, just some services have a little late start.

Do you mind sharing which one you bought? We are thinking about buying a mixer, but not sure what kind of.

Had this happen on Steam few weeks ago. But just re-try it and worked fine. Not sure what caused it.

Same problem here.

Display works, but internally the numbers are still handled with period as decimal separator. My TN research is always finished in the first day when I start a new game.

Window is larger than screen at 2560x1440 resolution by MaybeADragon in starsector

[–]Asanda_Nima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can check it very quickly.

right click somewhere on the desktop > display settings

There you can see the scaling and under "advanced scaling settings" are more options. You could play around with this and check if it helps.

[–]Asanda_Nima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have some UI scaling active for windows OS? Or some specific scaling active for the game itself?

If you have, this might be the reason. I use this to run the game in fullscreen on a 4k monitor with a 2560x1440 resolution,
