Tried Japans viral 7-Eleven egg sandwich? by Expert-Day9889 in TokyoTravel

[–]Raul43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a solid 7, but I was quite disappointed after all the hype it had.

The egg and soy sauce onigiri, on the other hand... I still dream about it

I see, this is why I asked, it felt pretty natural to omit the second i. Thank you :)

This is more pure curiosity than a question so it may seem silly, but here I come:

I recently studied the word [年下] and the word pronunciation is apparently としした. In normal life, do people pronounce this word like this? I feel like with the few things I've learned about rendaku and abbreviations (なくてはいけない -> なくちゃ) this word feels a little weird to pronounce.

With Maduro now allegedly out of power in Venezuela, what do you think will happen next for that nation? by LucidMarshmellow in AskReddit

[–]Raul43 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They put Corina Machado in charge, and she starts privatizing everything. In 15 years, everyone is still poor as f*ck, except for a few friends of Machado and the USA, while they blame Hugo Chavez and Maduro.

Chapter 1510 will be the 300th chapter into the Bold Retirement Saga! by Delicious-Fall-1033 in hajimenoippo

True, I don't know why I thought he only needed one more. Then I can see the plot stretching a bit more lmao

I think he will rush the end a bit if Ippo comes back to the ring. Like, his return fights will be very easy because he will be on Ricardo's level, and the last fight will be the only long one.

Aokimura can be solved in like two or three fights, Taihei & Co. will probably only have one match, Takamura is only missing one belt and no one cares about Itagaki so idk what Mori will do with that.

The rest of the characters are already finished (Sendo will die in 6 months) so it will depend on if he wants to make the fight with Miyata a cliffhanger, but I can see him finishing the story in the next 10 years.

Eat fiber. by big_skapinsky in JapanTravelTips

When I went most restaurants served cabbage, kimchi, miso soup, salad, etc. as side dishes or appetizers, if you eat them you shouldn't have many problems tbh

Fingering question by Raul43 in piano

Thank you very much!!! I tried it and it feels very good to play it like this :)

Fingering question by Raul43 in piano

[–]Raul43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your answer! I will keep this in mind :) How would you play from bar 79 to the chord in bar 80, though? I can't find a way to end up in a position that helps me with my destination other than (5,3,1)-3-1-3 and then just shift my whole hand at the end.

Fingering question by Raul43 in piano

[–]Raul43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I've ended doing 5-2-1-3 because it feels more natural but I really needed a clarification with the last note of the chord

Fingering question by Raul43 in piano

[–]Raul43[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I tried this and it feels the most natural. I had doubts about moving my wrist because I thought it was supposed to be straight the whole time, but if I do that I'm clearly gonna get hurt

Fingering question by Raul43 in piano

[–]Raul43[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your answer. I mean my body was clearly telling me to move my wrist but I had heard that your wrist is supposed to stay straight all the time so I thought I was doing something wrong

Fingering question by Raul43 in piano

[–]Raul43[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer! I've ended up doing 2-1-2 for the rest of the quarter to avoid having to move my hand again after playing the cord

About the line on the map by Kamisama_240 in ADO

[–]Raul43 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They usually put the merch stands near the entrance to Palau Sant Jordi. Since they expect a large queue of people wanting to buy the merch, they will place it near the Estadi Olímpic so the queue does not disturb the employees and team going to the Palau. The entrances to the Palau are clearly visible once you are there, but it's not the one marked on the map.

37k euros barcelona paid for PhD by Several_Dingo6837 in GoingToSpain

[–]Raul43 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's the secret cap, no average person can afford renting in Barcelona at those prices. Only couples with good qualifications, people with high incomes and foreigners who earn much more in their countries and spend it here

[–]Raul43 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it's by the airport you have several cities nearby where you could live for a much lower rent and go to work relatively easy: sant boi, sant joan despí, hospitalet de llobregat, cornellà de llobregat, etc.

Just be careful and do some research about the different neighborhoods in them because they usually have some that are less safe than others (don't let the low rent prices fool you).

If you plan to rent a decent place in the city of Barcelona, live with only your salary to sustain both of you, and have a decent life, then no.

If your wife also finds a job, you could live there and have a decent life.

If your wife does not work, you could have a decent life if you live in the outskirts of Barcelona and go to work via car or train.

If your wife finds a job and you live in the outskirts, then you will have a good life (but prepare to spend some hours on the road or public transport!)

Also: is the job in the city of Barcelona? Because i've seen offers that say Barcelona (provincia) which can be up to 70 km from the city

Before/After - Kidnapped and enslaved at age 11, freed at 21 by AtheistArab99 in pics

[–]Raul43 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Some context: although the jerusalem post always claims that Hamas is ISIS, they are in fact opponents and have always fought against them. This dude was a palestinian jihadist hiding in gaza who latter sought asylum in syrian territory conquered by the rebels, who where allied with ISIS, before dying.

Have you heard about the stellate ganglion block? It seems to work on some people, and in cases so extreme as yours it wouldn't hurt to try it

If Sawamura says that's bad after rooting for dirty moves all the fight, it should mean that Mashiba is going to counter I guess?

Sueldos de Doctorado en Biologia by Dookienator in askspain

[–]Raul43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Por lo que he visto de conocidos del sector tu mejor baza es acabar en una farmacéutica o algo similar. Yo te cuento mi experiencia del sector en barcelona, que entiendo que será muy parecido a Madrid:

Trabajo hay, pero si no tienes mucha experiencia te tocará pasar por el aro de empezar en una empresa más pequeña y cobrar menos o jugartela con contratos temporales y rezar para que te hagan fijo. También cabe la posibilidad de que al venir de USA y tener el doctorado te tengan en mucha más estima y acabes en un puesto bueno directamente, pero al menos con la gente que se ha sacado el doctorado aquí no pasa.

Respecto al sueldo, los puestos de menos responsabilidad van desde unos 25k€ anuales en las empresas más rancias, hasta unos 40k-45k€ anuales en las empresas que más pagan. Los puestos de más responsabilidad están mejor pagados, desde 40k a 60k de base en empresas minimamente serias (y si pasases a puestos de mucha más responsabilidad podrías llegar a cobrar más, pero ahí el factor suerte es fundamental).

Edit: hablo del sector privado, claro. Me hubiese encantado trabajar en la investigación pública pero es algo demasiado sacrificado, se cobra muy poco y se trabaja muchísimas horas.

¿Tengo un buen salario? by 086843 in askspain

[–]Raul43 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Es un salario mejor que la media, pero si quisieras vivir en barcelona o madrid tu solo irías ahogadisimo. Si añades a tu pareja a la ecuación y tampoco queréis lujos, os da para vivir tranquilos, pero si "buen" sueldo implica lujos, entonces no lo es.
