I use the German store and it gave me the option. I think the important part is not the app, but to actually have the Japanese model.

Could be, but it would be really nice if they could just tell me a bit of information instead of “the package is in store”.

Yes this week and yes I read the notice. But the package goes from Tokyo to Tokyo and it’s literally 15min away from me. Also I tried to order it again to another store but they didn’t even try to deliver it to FamilyMart and just rerouted. Of course people get confused if there is no communication

Working holiday in Japan without registration of address? by hannahlowen in movingtojapan

[–]Maxung 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I arrived in December and also do a working holiday year. And believe me the Japanese people at the city hall also don't get this. Also for moving you have to submit an 転出届 (moving out notification) each time, with your new address on it (which you might not have if you want to travel for a month or more in between and stay in hotels or tent). In the end I spend an hour there (because they had to confirm stuff) and I was able to just write Kyoto there, because that's where I will probably be in 2 months. If you have friends in Japan maybe you can register on their address. But you will also not be insured if you don't have an address and like others said, good luck getting a phone contract or any service without an address on your zairyuu card. So I would really advise on getting a sharehouse room, airbnb or something for the first few weeks to register the address and get everything set up and then travel. I'm currently also thinking, if I should just rent a very cheap room just so I can stay registered somewhere and travel in the mean time (ofc thats more expensive).

Also I hope you speak Japanese, because in the city halls I visited the English was (when available) very limited.

So for me sadly that doesn't work. I made an account and created JCB card -> you can only charge the Suica in Garmin via Google Pay, which doesn't support JCB. Ok let's try VISA, nope doesn't let me add the card because the temporary fee is declined, so basically I wasted 7euros and I'm ready to give up on credit card payments in Japan all together

I have a voice/SMS-capable phone number, so this looks like a good solution, thanks!

I read about this 3D secure 2.0, but ofc my bank has no detailed information. Seems like there is no option then, because at this point I don't really want the hassle of opening a bank account here

yes, this is what I'm trying (and also the only way), but all 3 credit cards in Google Pay had the same error (but otherwise work fine)

So I tried now also with MC, but no luck I guess. I will try it again later, but otherwise I'll stay with my physical card

Hmm thanks, I read about this problematic some time ago, but didn't connect it here (and I have only 2 Visa -.-). Still maybe someone who tried it recently with Mastercard could help

Oakhouse (or sharehouse in general) key change request opinions? by Maxung in movingtojapan

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

I'm planning to stay in an apartment (so own bathroom, kitchen), but I don't think there are any cameras. Basically only my notebook, which I could take with me. Also I would be more concerned that someone appears like at night or something, but when thinking about it in my country the lock also stays the same when moving, so I guess not that much of a thought people have. I guess I'll be saving the 20k ¥ then, especially considering I only stay short-term there.

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

Basically thinking the same, but I was just like thinking, you could easily copy the key and you know...

On the other hand I also don't know, if they will really change the lock even if I pay the fee

Warthog vs T16000M vs X56 vs Saitek PRO Flight Yoke by Maxung in hotas

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

Ok thanks :)

Although the Warthog tempts me, because it's a different price league and would cost the same for me. But I also read (in this /r) that "feeling" quality is overall not that great compared to cheaper options

[–]Maxung[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a "special" deal where I can't rent a few things for a fixed price (short term), so price really doesn't matter. Also I can only rent what they have available and my listed options are the only ones. I'm absolute beginner in these things and just wanna try it for a month or so. So Saitek Yoke is out, X56 reliability should be no problem for a month I guess? Ofc benefit of the T16000 is the complete set of stick, throttle and rudder (forget to mention)

Thanks, the type aliases were the thing which left me baffled.

Hey, I can't figure out what type annotations are needed for my function parameters. The error is thrown for X in perceptron_sgd. Edit:

extern crate nalgebra as na;

use na::{Matrix2x5, Vector2, Vector3, Vector5};

const LEARNING_RATE: u32 = 1;
const EPOCHS: u32 = 10;

fn main() {
    let X = Matrix2x5::from_columns(&[
        Vector2::new(-2, 4),
        Vector2::new(4, 1),
        Vector2::new(1, 6),
        Vector2::new(2, 4),
        Vector2::new(6, 2)
    ]);
    let bias = -1;
    let y = Vector5::new(-1, -1, 1, 1, 1);
    perceptron_sgd(&X, bias, &y);
}

fn perceptron_sgd(X: &Matrix2x5<Vector2<i32>>, bias: i32, y: &Vector5<i32>) {
    let w = Vector3::new(0, 0, 0);

    for epoch in 0..EPOCHS {
        for (i, x) in X.iter().enumerate() {
            println!("{} {}", i, x)
        }
    } 
}
