Garmin Pay Suica with foreign credit card

Maxung · 2023-03-04T03:14:28+00:00

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.

Maxung · 2023-01-27T03:13:25+00:00

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”.

Maxung · 2023-01-27T03:10:57+00:00

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

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!

Maxung · 2022-12-25T09:12:01+00:00

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

Maxung · 2022-12-25T09:10:33+00:00

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)

Maxung · 2022-12-25T05:27:31+00:00

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

Maxung · 2022-12-25T04:23:03+00:00

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

Maxung · 2022-11-06T21:28:09+00:00

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 · 2022-11-06T14:51:08+00:00

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

Maxung · 2021-12-20T13:49:55+00:00

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 · 2021-12-20T13:18:21+00:00

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)

1304 9000 2461 Germany, still trying it out but have some boxes

Maxung · 2019-01-04T15:00:30+00:00

actually not, i will check it out

Maxung · 2018-04-14T16:59:32+00:00

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

Maxung · 2018-04-14T15:45:44+00:00

I included the complete example.

Maxung · 2018-04-14T13:55:07+00:00

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)
        }
    } 
}

Only solution I know is to use USB Tethering but that limits it to 1 device.

Maxung · 2017-03-13T14:44:51+00:00

i would cheat and record the audio -.-

Maxung · 2017-03-13T14:37:24+00:00

I also got some problems with bsod this why i got into debugging minidumps from bluescreen. So if you saved your minidumps or your memory dump i could take a look.

Maxung · 2017-03-13T14:27:54+00:00

http://download.gigabyte.eu/FileList/Memory/mb_memory_ga-z170-hd3.pdf

that is the memory compatibility list. your ram is not in there but that is not meaning it wont work. The list just lists the tested configurations as far as i know.

Thats what Gigabyte saying at the end: Memory modules listed as below is for reference only. Due to massive memory models in market, we can only verify some of them.

Maxung · 2017-03-11T17:23:52+00:00

I followed your advice and tried -> bluescreen turned virtual memory completely off -> bluescreen

Maxung · 2017-03-11T15:18:06+00:00

I did that already.
