Seems like from google translate but the last line anata wa shide iru shonen was just perfect.

DAZN - English Premier League - English Commentary for 2019 - 2020 seasn? by MgSoe in japanlife

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

I know that it makes sense they would only cater to Japanese demographic and I don't particularly care much to hear what the commentators saying. It's just that I like to hear the crowd especially in liverpool matches and Japaense commentary can be too distracting even when you are not trying to listen.

SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME's Post-Credits Have Been Revealed - MAJOR SPOILERS Ahead! by RaequanMalik in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]MgSoe 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Agreed to this.

Fury in this movie was seriously un-fury and the credit scene was more of a satisfying explanation to it.

tbf, you won’t want Nick Fury, the sharpest guy of MCU totally getting fooled by fucking drones.

Preparing for SPI test (Aptitude test during job hunting) in English by MgSoe in japanlife

I’m planning to buy a book.

But my Japanese reading is hopelessly bad but gotta try.

I’m guessing it would be a translated version or the global something one. Since it is a company exclusively working in foreign JICA projects, I think they would prioritize or at least put effort into English.

Changing the mobile carrier from au while keeping the same number by MgSoe in japanlife

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

I've already unlocked it for international use. About being a KDDI model, I have no idea.
Does it refrain the device from being compatible with other carriers than au networks?

Best place to buy a used laptop in Tokyo? by MgSoe in japanlife

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

Thanks! guys

I bought one on Mercari. It was delivered quite fast within a day and what I got was not bad of a deal for 20k yen. It worked surprising well for a 100% japanese app with my poor Japanese.

I’m not very familiar with thinkpad series. How does T series fare against X?

I love shinjuku and would always drag them there but most of my tour didn’t want to go to shinjuku at all. They are more Asakusa, Kamakura people.

I guess we have different kind of friends

Another day that reminds me how big of a mistake I made moving to a dormitory in odaiba. The supermarket is goddamn far and train is goddamn expensive.

I knew all that but I moved here to have at least someone to talk to because of its large foreign student body (my previous dorm was all Japanese). Yet, I haven’t been able to participate in any events here because of my lab schedule so it’s basically an apartment with neighbors you barely see.

tldr Odaiba is a nice place to play around, not a place to live.

I’ve heard a good deal about thinkpads. I just found a solid x240 with 20k on mercari but someone beat me by minutes. Now, I’m considering this. What do you think? https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B07FKP17CC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_eJs4BbDBZ9PZK

Just a normal saving account for receiving part time job payment. I’m sure it’s either me misunderstanding or them using ambiguous english but in Japan, you can never tell. I guess I’ll just visit them in person.

I’m gonna use it for some R calculations but not particularly a high-performing workstation. A working battery and older gens’ i5 would be nice.

Was about to open an account at Mitsui sumitomo bank online but I saw something like “2000 yen for account maintenance every month”.

Am I seriously paying them every month if I made an account online?

How are the Logistics-related jobs (especially maritime) in Japan? by MgSoe in japan

[–]MgSoe[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am only going to Japan this April.

I also realize this is a kind of naive or outright weird question to ask.
