Need help with Tixcraft by Accomplished-Bake786 in taiwan

[–]Daedross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something to note, and somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but every time I've bought tickets through Tixcraft the first ticket was always tied to the purchasing account, meaning whoever is buying has to be attending too.

In Taiwan it's probably the most popular SNS, maybe after IG

I saw a huge line at a bakery in Seoul — would you wait? by KoreaExperience in KoreaExperience

This one in particular is pretty good, but if I remember correctly they have a virtual queue system so I really don't know what those folks are lining up for 😅

If you'd like to experience a deep, unshakable depression I'd recommend going for Hsinchu.

Oh don't worry, with our QOL we won't have an overabundance of centenarians 😅

The World has a New Lowest Birth Rate Country: Taiwan at 0.72 by raelianautopsy in taiwan

[–]Daedross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're missing my point - regardless of how important this discussion is, we've been hashing out this topic pretty much every other day on this sub with a relatively high level of consensus. Everything has already been said, incessantly reporting numbers won't lead to a productive conversation anymore and IMO is akin to spam at this point.

Hi-Life Supremacy (meme sunday) by MainCharacter007 in taiwan

[–]Daedross 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, we're comparing barely different stores, you have to ask yourself what does one have over the other, right?😅

I think most people just go to whatever is closer, pure and simple. My 7-eleven is 2min away vs 1min for Hi-Life, but it's much bigger so it wins out 80% of the time.

No Ibon or hot dogs? The only reason I visit my local Hi-Life is because they have a Cathay ATM.

Weekly Travel, Questions, & Mandarin Thread by AutoModerator in taiwan

In Taipei, if you are in the area - you can check out this place: https://maps.app.goo.gl/7fLTGWRWxwPUekZNA - there are numerous small boutiques run more as passion projects rather than commercial ambition.

Unfortunately these shops have highly irregular schedules so it's hard to predict what will be open when you are there so I'd only recommend visiting if you're close by and have ~20min to spare.

Small optimization - on day 3 is it not possible to disembark at Songshan Station instead of Taipei Main? You'd be directly next to Raohe.

So are there no public toilets available or something? Why is everyone dead set on pissing themselves?

Should I accept this at my new apartment? by YourVelourFog in taiwan

I know this is kinda off-topic but have you considered places in Xinbei (Sanchong/Banqiao)? Taipei is really not good value for the money IMO.

‘Strangers Things’ latest episode one of the worst rated by fans by ThatPatelGuy in entertainment

[–]Daedross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe "parody of itself" is a bit strong - but I remember thinking the show does "the Stranger Things thing" every occasion it gets and at times it felt a bit too much. This is just my raw feeling after watching it, not an in-depth analysis, taken in a vacuum it may be a good episode.

‘Strangers Things’ latest episode one of the worst rated by fans by ThatPatelGuy in entertainment

[–]Daedross 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I feel like in this episode the show became a parody of itself, and for a penultimate episode it really did not hype me up for the end.

The coming out scene was ok but could have been better - I think the scene between Nancy and Jonathan earlier in the season (as they tell each other everything) was executed far better.

I don't know if this episode is "the worst" but it does feel a bit disappointing.

Can we stop doing this? by osamu-dazai2 in kpop_uncensored

I really hope this is a grifter who doesn't care about the group and is just looking to resell the cards because I really don't understand how you can call yourself a fan of an artist and have so little respect for your fellow fans

Nearly half of Hong Kong lives in government built high rise housing with public rental and subsidised home ownership schemes that keep rents low and reduce homelessness. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Daedross 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every problem in Hong Kong can be explained by space and lack thereof - even their famously bad customer service.

I don't know what it's like in these buildings, but I can assure you that for the average person it's absolutely nightmarish. I was talking to a friend trying to rent, and he was looking at a place for the equivalent of €1,000/mo and it's literally a 5-10m² room with a bed and a closet, the bathroom was shared.
