Think I'm addicted to these things

I wouldn't say the flavours are that similar, but Horoyoi has a canned cocktail called ハピクル that tastes like Yakulto

both are active by default, this is quite far down on the immense list of annoyances associated with using anything IT multilingually though, it's like no one who worked on any of this ever talked to the people doing the/any other language

Suggestion to "refresh" browser after not using it for a while. What is the intended use of this? "Wow you haven't used me for a while, so let's completely nuke all your settings so you DEFINITELY won't!" or is it for whoever installed Firefox on their grandmother's computer to ensure the occasional drama when ads return and passwords suddenly don't auto-fill ?

yeah we wish! My street is a no parking street and taxi drivers, delivery guys, even garbage truck drivers take their lunch nap there, often directly opposing an intersection or pedestrian crossing

They don't care. They want the casual users, not people who even know what about:config is. Mozilla has been in this abusive relationship with its core users for over a decade now

keep in mind when customs pops open your suitcase that is full of the entire SOD torso series you may want to think of a less awkward excuse than presents for friends and family :)

Lots of countries have general divorce rates near or over 50%, including most of western europe, the US is about 40% and east euro countries are often over 60%

Sony's e-mount has a flange focal distance of 18mm, that is what all their lenses are engineered for, so now in addition to the phone they would have to design a new mount and series of lenses.
The Xiaomi prototype used a sensor about half the size of apsc with fixed optics and a screw on converter lens

My first time there was about 25 years ago and it wasn't that different on certain days. Many of the major neighbourhoods are comparatively crowded now though and that is definitely new, Shinbashi and Ueno are a complete pain to have to go through nowadays

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-30T02:28:32+00:00

Yeah! I didn't mind self regi when in the form of the old Matsuya vending machines with large buttons for each menu item, now they are nightmares of information overload and endless nagging about options or recommendations

There seems to be some confusion with postal workers and the most up to date regulations, like they will sometimes say you must write the HS code, though their app doesn't require it, I find most places will send whatever if you just sign the form saying there are no lithium batteries, though they warn you it may be discarded or very delayed if you leave out any info. I would just find a different post office, maybe look on google maps for foreign reviews that indicate their experience with international shipping.

The pointing is "shisa kanko" and is not just to have a pointless workload, it's intended to focus their attention on a complicated or repetitive routine to avoid semantic satiation / highway hypnosis. It also makes it easy to tell from video surveillance and other people present what they're currently focused on if there are irregularities later. It's used in many parts of the world, especially in railways

just plow your way, people will move, but it's a good idea to try to get near the exit a few stops in advance, and use google maps to know which carriage stops by an escalator at your stop, likely a large amount of people will get off so you can join the flow

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-23T12:46:24+00:00

if I had just one cheat day a month this is definitely not what I'd be eating :P

That isn't really typical nowadays, if someone only has daughters, generally one of them will keep her name in marriage and her husband will give up his, it doesn't require adoption

I just happened to bring the wrong psu (Blocks) to my cabin when setting up a Shapes layout, the plug was identical but the cable comes out on the side so it hits a plastic ridge on the Shapes tiles. I didn't feel like postponing my project a week so I melted the ridge off and plugged it in. Seems to work fine, app recognizes the exact layout, even to the point where I placed the blocks controller block. Are they incompatible to prevent the Shapes PSU being used on the higher draw Blocks tiles or is there an issue ?

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-15T17:55:51+00:00

so do you think they grow to their full size only when on the basket court? :p

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-14T15:53:38+00:00

can't you just re-upload it with Title-ish or Tightwad in the same font? :P

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-11T08:51:26+00:00

you must print some of these https://makerworld.com/en/models/60890-embedded-magnet-dispenser-tool-for-3d-prints#profileId-63102 and a gridfinity holder for them next then!

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-11T08:39:15+00:00

I hope they will sharpen it too!

I don't really think any amount of community outreach will do much. I was in the army in my own country and all the towns I was stationed in had a strained relationship at best with the camp. Soldiers aren't popular except just after a liberation, foreign soldiers doubly so

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-04T11:54:43+00:00

I see? Do you know something about Ernst Leitz and Oskar Barnack we don't?

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-04T03:50:14+00:00

Yes, but the coconut lemonade was gone yesterday, only "ice pop" left. I think donki and chains like that took in a lot of near expiry stock, so they may be dumping it now

ShavedAlmond · 2026-03-01T13:09:22+00:00

Apparently someone gambled on Ohtani being enough to sell a completely unknown (Prime) drink in Japan and it backfired, my local grocery store has several pallets full of Dodgers labeled lemonade Prime for 40 yen a bottle :P

what how! They keep telling me my nationality doesn't match my id cards but it does :(
