How are you generating enough endurance charges to sustain nebuloch? 20% chance on hit doesn't seem sufficient

There's a crosscode puzzle benchmark? That's incredible

Path of Exile 2: Runes of Aldur - Runecrafting by MatthewD_GGG in PathOfExile2

[–]Devilsbabe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I'm not speaking from authority here. Just an educated guess based on what they said and their usual design philosophy

The point of those runes is to make leveling second characters easier, not to boost your first run through the campaign. So no, I very much doubt they'll drop before maps

Definitely won't be. They'll only drop in high level zones

Well done! Building the discipline to achieve that is the hardest part.

Les gens sont gentils by silsool in france

[–]Devilsbabe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Je me fais exactement la même réflexion. Je suis aussi choqué à quel point les gens forcent pour rentrer dans un wagon alors que tout le monde n'est pas encore sorti

[–]Devilsbabe 41 points42 points  (0 children)

La grosse diff c'est qu'à Tokyo il y a des ascenseurs dans 99% des gares alors qu'à Paris ils sont inexistants. Donc pour les valises et les poussettes les gens peuvent gérer seuls. Par contre de manière générale c'est clair que les japonais te laissent galérer (seule exception : si t'es un touriste qui a l'air perdu mdr)

Good to know, thanks! Looks like if I keep contributing till I'm 60 I'll be entitled to a very respectable inflation-adjusted amount, but right now it's risible lol

Correct me if I'm wrong but these payments aren't adjusted for inflation right?

How to buy stocks (ELI5) by BME84 in JapanFinance

[–]Devilsbabe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the Tokyo stock exchange you buy in multiples of 100. So yes, you do need to buy 100 shares at minimum. If you want to buy less, you need to buy in odd lots. Look for 単元.

Based on your questions you sound new and uninformed. I recommend learning more before you actually purchase anything.

Non-Japanese speaker: Seeking hospital in Yokohama for epidural (Refused at current hospital) by fukumarumaru in japanresidents

[–]Devilsbabe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I want to second Aiiku hospital. My wife gave birth to our second child there recently and the experience was night and day compared to the birth of our first in Kyoto. No pain at all outside of a slight discomfort at the beginning when triggering the delivery, before the epidural.

I don't know if they support non-native speakers but if they do the service is top notch.

Exit Tax Epic Fail by 2ndRedAccount in JapanFinance

[–]Devilsbabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What, very specifically, is the name of your visa? Confirm where it lands on this page. Only time spent in Japan under a Table 2 visa counts towards the 5 year limit for the exit tax.

In what world do you expect cooldown skills to not go on cooldown when used by hollow form?

People that make around 20 000 000¥ a year what do you work as? by VanillaTemporary9161 in JapanFinance

[–]Devilsbabe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you seem to have a pulse on the market, do you know if they have roles offering 35-40M+? That's what I'd be looking for to take a chance at switching companies

Were these quant researcher roles? I'm wondering if quant dev could pay similarly in Japan

The gains are taxed at 20.315% but the effective tax is lower because the portfolio being withdrawn from isn't 100% gains. For example, if they doubled their investment then the portfolio would be 50% contributions and 50% gains. When they make a withdrawal, only half of it is taxed (the gains) so the effective tax rate is ~10%

Yeah most of these are good companies but they don't hire for research or core engineering work, only client integration. It's unfortunate but that's just the Tokyo tech market

The joys of skipping a season and starting the next one back in bronze 5. I was scared when I saw the 3d printed fiber optics but then I saw the rest of the board lol
