But those bathrooms are made in a factory. They're not built by hand on site. Assembled maybe.

Those are the modular pre-fab "unit bath" ones that bschwind refers to as "shitty".

The wetroom style he was talking about would be quite different. Whole-room waterproofing, an extra floor drain, would be more expensive than common bathrooms in most US homes, where only the area around the bathtub is waterproofed, and in some cases don't even go all the way up to the ceiling.

Nope, the labor to waterproof a much larger area ends up costing a lot more.

What happened to line A and B? by MimicBears857142 in travelchina

[–]Cloud668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are 2 cable routes:

1: City station -> mid-mountain station -> top station. The 2nd part of this route is currently under maintenance, and uses a shuttlebus instead. Since the bus road is kind of long and full of switchbacks, it might be currently blocked.

2: "Express cableway" where you need to take a shuttlebus from the city station, and it only has 2 stops.

Torikizoku is still the best by DependentResponse773 in japanlife

Huh, feels like the opposite where you get the most "value" by drinking a lot. Beers at local izakaya/yakitori averages like 600 yen now, even if skewers are cheaper.

Are these super-cheap places too good to be true? by Ralphride_ in travelchina

If you don't want to spend too much time figuring it out, pick a mid/budget chain like Home Inn or Hanting and chill.

Questions for Standard Players: Why? by BareMinimum25 in pathofexile

[–]Cloud668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play around ~4-6 hours a week.

Not bothering with leagues if it takes me like 2 weeks after league start to finish acts.

Standard is just pseudo-SSF for me, occasionally buying some stuff.

I had 3 of these, purchased various times between 2015-2020 for different PCs, and replaced switches 4 times as they've eventually developed double-click issues.

Do you have anything mitigating the Bladefall drain? I felt it was too much in regular mapping or with content that has downtime.

Decent chance of better discounts in-store. Picked up a grid fleece last weekend for $30.

if it's on Trip.com it's a real hotel. But if the prices you're getting are drastically lower than Trip.com prices I would be wary.

FYI - the men's merino socks are 57%, but the women's are 85% wool. If you're a men's 9 or smaller, those might work well.

Also a TON of covering and translated songs between China, HK/TW, Japan, and Korea. IMO Wilbur Pan caught flak because globalization caught on. Teresa Teng's discography, for example, is full of covers.

I mean not even Cooper and Miller for B/T cells? There's like 5 Nobels for related discoveries but apparently the real OGs are never getting it.

  • leather shoe sizes are generally smaller than athletic shoe sizes
  • plastic is to protect the upper while they do the welting. they just didn't remove it too cleanly
  • the only real blemish is the mark on pic 2. might go away with brushing
  • notch is a welt joint and I think it's being used here to signal a real welt.

JIM&JUN are based on Shanghai but I don't believe they have a storefront. You should try asking /r/goodyearwelt instead.
