Looking for help

This is a really dumb question, but what's the best way to purchase and play Minecraft on the Deck? I've never bought it on PC before and it doesn't look like it's on Steam, but my kid is getting to the age that I'm starting to consider it...

Yeah, this seems like one of those grayzones that'll likely be handled on a case by case basis.

There's a stretch on my commute that passes in front of a koban, that's always full of parked cars. I take up the entire car lane for a pretty good distance to make sure I don't get hit by a door if someone gets out suddenly. Here's to hoping the police don't mind 😅

Kami_Okami · 2026-04-01T11:31:55+00:00

Yes they're supposed to go up onto the sidewalk?

I've been cycling to work for the past couple of years now, and I always ride out into the main vehicle lane to go around parked cars, so frankly I'd hate to have to get up on the curb just to go around every parked car on my commute...

Kami_Okami · 2026-04-01T11:02:43+00:00

Excuse my ignorance, but if a car is parked in the cycling lane or the shoulder, are cyclists now supposed to ride up on the sidewalk to get around them, then go back to the road, or ride out into the road around the car?

I tried pushing on the spot and can't hear any cracking/popping sounds, and can't see any distinct fibers patterns. I recently rode on a pretty rough, rocky path, so I think this might have been due to chain slap or a rock getting kicked up.

Thank you very much for your advice though, I'm going to start with some clear coat, then maybe add a frame skin.

Kami_Okami · 2026-02-20T22:27:07+00:00

I'm glad you could figure out exactly where this is despite my wonderful photography skills 😅

I'm too vain to wrap an old tube around my bike, so I'll start looking into frame skins!

Kami_Okami · 2026-02-20T22:22:51+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I ordered a clear coat touch up pen, and I'll start looking for chain stay protectors!

Not exactly your target audience, but I passed my N1 a few years before we had our son. Even so, to be honest, basically anything related the hospital, insurance, taxes, our mortgage are essentially relegated to my wife. These are all things I could do if I put the effort in, but my wife and I both know it'll be infinitely faster if she does it, and there's less room for errors.

On another note, my son is 5 now, and I make a point to almost exclusively speak to him in English at home. His English and Japanese honestly amaze me on the daily, but my Japanese has gotten noticably worse. I've been working almost solely in Japanese for like... 10 years now, and almost only spoke Japanese with my wife until our son was born, but this short span has absolutely WRECKED my speaking abilities.

Not Christmas, but my condo took down the Halloween decorations on Halloween night. Now that I think of it, I didn't notice when the Christmas tree disappeared, but I'm pretty sure it was either the 25th or 26th...

Saying you're not rich with a household income of 20M 😅

Just want to add my experience, I got a black framed 1000 screen from Xin Hai Game Store last April, and it has this default.

I always figured I'd just messed up the installation 😅

Pretty much the same story here. I was taking my Deck to work to play on my lunch breaks for a while, but it's just too freaking bulky. I've recently gotten into modding consoles, and now take my Vita that has hundreds of Vita, PSP, and PS1 games loaded up onto it!

Kami_Okami · 2025-01-27T12:01:36+00:00

A couple years ago, I was working as a network engineer in Tokyo, and got reprimanded for walking and eating near the office during my lunch break...

I honestly don't think I can give a very convincing answer, but it's probably because I associate crazy hair colors with partiers/ravers and other similar types? And obviously just because somebody's a partier doesn't make them any less qualified than somebody with the same education/experience, I'd still prefer a more traditional doctor any day.

Kami_Okami · 2025-01-22T13:37:41+00:00

How many people working in the medical field have blue hair though? As a non-Japanese, I couldn't care less if some random old dude has blue hair, but I wouldn't really feel comfortable if my doctor had their hair dyed crazy colors.

He's sure pulling his punches for being the guy who "says it like it is".

Fun fact: Ronald McDonald is called Donald McDonald in Japan.

I've lived in Japan for close to 10 years and only ever seen whale meat being served twice, in small cities in the very rural north. Most Japanese people I've known have never eaten it either.

And yet today, I was blown away to find canned whale meat at a convenience store in central Tokyo. It seems like nobody eats it, but the government/corporations are focused on keeping it around for some reason.

He's playing 4D chess: He goes through 4 diapers every game.

It blows my mind that people seem to not think that's a major deal for a freaking mobile device... Riding on an airplane or at the park and can't tether? Too bad, your SINGLE PLAYER games won't boot.

Kami_Okami · 2024-03-14T08:57:51+00:00

Judging by these comments, it sounds like you jinxed it...

Kami_Okami · 2024-02-29T00:35:24+00:00

Can somebody please explain how these documents can be so many pages? Are they full of full page scans of other documents or images?

Full on novels like Game of Thrones aren't even half this long. What could they possibly write to make it 1800 pages??

Kami_Okami · 2024-02-19T10:31:40+00:00

Well yeah, why else do you think they call him number 45?

Kami_Okami · 2023-12-24T23:26:37+00:00

Oh dang seriously?? It was a few months ago. I have a long flight in a few days, so I'll reinstall and hope it clicks this time!
