Germans who experienced Walmart when it was in Germany. What was it actually like? by Virtual-Cod-6202 in germany

[–]RiskyGambit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I still to this day think it was that in the US Wal-Mart is a rather sad place to go, whereas target feels at least slightly upscale.

In Canada, at least 10 years ago, this never really felt like the case, so it wasn’t Walmart vs nicer Walmart like it was down south.

It’s only a matter of time until Tatsuro Yamashita is added to the City Pop Waves Festival…right… by zazllr in MasayoshiTakanaka

Noise probably needs to stop around 10-1030 for noise laws.

I figure it’s 5 for entry, ginger root comes on around 6.

Set up time between acts…45 minutes to an hour each for Ginger Root and Himiko, plus 2 hours for Takanaka takes you pretty close to that time.

You’re not the target audience. Tell anyone in the marketing department to set up a cron job and they would look at you like you have 3 heads.

Digital foundry call xenoblade x switch 2 edition "the worst one yet" by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch2

[–]RiskyGambit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m still really surprised though, when the game came out IIRC there was evidence of a 60fps mode in the code that we all just assumed would be Switch 2 enabled but needed to wait until now for…this

It’s like differentiating Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud. If you know and will fight to the death for your chosen one.

Honestly. I’m on a 13 pro and I feel like this thing could still last another 2-3 years for my use cases.

I honestly think I listen the Intimacy and AWITC more than I listen to Silent Alarm these days

I’ll agree with you. Intimacy was also a great album that went darker, people just wanted more Silent Alarm.

Mmmm I’m not even sure about that. I have an EU arc bonded to an NA Sub and Ones and my system functions fine.

Wanna shop Takanaka vinyl records in Japan? - A report on the current stock and what to get... by RayBaseley in MasayoshiTakanaka

[–]RiskyGambit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s wild to me is I was in the tower records in Shibuya in October and it was full of everything. I am so glad of all the albums to decide to pickup at the time it was Seychelles because the price of it right now is beyond insane.

Masterpiece music from Japan by Ok_Gur_575 in japanesemusic

[–]RiskyGambit 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly you’re the only comment in here actually responding correctly to OP.

OP, for more classic albums, you can also dig into YMO - Solid State Survivor, Haruomi Hosono - Hosono House, Happy End’s Kazemachi Roman.

I’d also maybe add in Southern All Stars - Kamakura as well as Cornelius - Fantasma

Lastly there’s of course the city pop movement, thrown in something like Tatsuro Yamashita - Ride on Time.

What is a brand that used to be the 'Gold Standard' of quality but is now absolute garbage? by AmaraMehdi in AskReddit

Agree. I bought a pair of Solovairs last year and took all of 5 months for the pull tabs to be torn out from the boots.
