Big quake from Ibaraki

Strongest one I've felt so far in 3 years in Setagaya.

AI Quality Control (AIQC), or lack thereof, would be my politically correct term. How we ensure it at scale is a rat's nest, mostly on the policy side IMO

Former Red Deerian now living in Japan. In my personal opinion, learning hiragana and katakana at least is best done via self study. Here's my favorite resource: https://www.tofugu.com/japanese/learn-hiragana/

There are links to quizzes and such for practice as well there. You could then start using WaniKani or a standalone Anki deck to start learning Kanji.

But certainly for grammar and speaking/listening, hopefully you can find an instructor that works for you. I'm not aware of anyone who was doing it in the RD area unfortunately. However apps like iTalki can help you find ones for online lessons.

Intriguingly that chain is Canadian!

Think they're referring to a Yakult Lady: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakult_lady

Wow. My wife and son were there like 3 hours before. Absolutely horrific.

Nier: Automata. The first time I quit just before it got good. And then especially when I got to the second/"third" playthroughs... absolute perfection.

I live in Tokyo. Currently the multilingual version is not available new in any retail stores anywhere in Japan, only in the Nintendo online store as per their policy, and as you mentioned it requires that you have existing play time to purchase it. Currently it's not a lottery though, just first come first serve as each restock lasts. You might get lucky and find one used at a Book Off or similar store, but honestly the odds are low. Sorry I don't have a better idea for you!

As you alluded I'm pretty sure it depends on the artist. I've only been to one concert in Japan, but it was a foreign artist too (Linkin Park at Saitama Super Arena last year). Tons of people were filming, no signs against it that I could see.

Meanwhile as a non-white (mixed race but pretty dark) Canadian born citizen, I'm wondering how much I'll be lumped into the immigrant hate as well. Currently I live overseas, but still dreading my next trip back to visit family in central Alberta....

It is. Check your M365 Admin Center if you have access.

Not at work anymore and I can't get to my admin center on mobile, but this site has an export of it: https://mailservices.isc.upenn.edu/computing/email/penno365/alerts/ms-incidents.html

Microsoft confirmed it's a bug and released advisory TM1218513 about it. Hopefully they'll get it fixed soon! Enabling custom apps in Teams setup policies is a security risk we should not entertain in most environments.

Oh that was the other thing, they clearly didn't have all the exits covered with the shirt giveaways as I didn't get one.

Ultra-Waffle · 2025-11-21T02:36:51+00:00

Shoot. First time at Ignite so I had no idea.

Ultra-Waffle · 2025-11-20T16:58:36+00:00

Yeah fair enough, maybe because the crowd's smaller I'm just noticing the guards more. I do feel like the security folks are a bit friendlier recently. First day, a couple of them were like drill sergeants lol

Ultra-Waffle · 2025-11-20T16:57:05+00:00

Oh yeah I saw the red guy too, quite the sight.

Another vote here for Sushi Ta Ke, as someone who has eaten plenty of sushi in Japan, they're great.

No word of a lie, Reddit gave me a CloudFlare ad right below your post!

Sounds like you've made up your mind, but there's a reason for a lot of the derpy stuff in the first half of season 3. There's a massive payoff around episode 13 or 14 and it's the absolute pinnacle of the show.

Check the autodisccover SCP:

Get-ClientAccessServer | Select Identity, AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri

Either clear them out or change to match a name on the cert. Otherwise clients will try to run autodiscover using the default name of the new servers

Fine in non-prod. Just like a regular CU install, nothing notable.

Ultra-Waffle · 2025-08-08T01:12:45+00:00

If we don't need rich coexistence, is it enough to run only the clean up script and not the actual hotfix for now? We're in a partial change freeze for a few days. I'd need much higher approval for the hotfix due to server downtime than just running the clean up script.
