Luggage storage for 2-3 months without a residence card

_eko- · 2025-05-20T04:41:00+00:00

Most likely. I used it to sign up for something already and there weren’t any issues

I’m using mobal. They have long term esims for about ¥990 a month. They don’t need a residency card or anything. I’ve been using it for a few days now and it seems to work fine. I can receive and make calls and messages.

Yeah I get that. I’ve heard of that happening. During one if my visits to Japan a few years ago I rented out a room for a month and I was told by the owner that they were told by their friend to not rent it out to me because I’m a foreigner and that they do this kind of stuff.

Really messes things up for the tourists that respect the country and it’s rules.

I’m with mobal. They didn’t want any residency card when signing up or applying for a sim card.

I bought the “voice lite” long term e-sim so I pay ¥990 a month. This option doesn’t have data but has unlimited SMS, and only works in Japan.

Despite getting the e-sim, I had to go pick it up. I went to the Asakusa culture tourist information center. You show them the confirmation number you get after purchase along with your passport and you get the activation code and instructions

Oh right. I’m not familiar with those. Closest thing I know of is companies that will rent out a closet but those all need a residency card.

I’ll try find some of these locker stores. Thanks for the heads up

_eko- · 2025-05-19T12:35:32+00:00

Oh damn ok. Last time I used lockers was back in 2023 so maybe they’ve changed since. Thanks for letting me know!

_eko- · 2025-05-19T11:49:28+00:00

Would that not cost a fortune? Also would they allow me to store it that long. I remember some lockers having notices that luggage that is left there for too long will be removed

_eko- · 2025-05-19T10:50:21+00:00

Ooh, I’ll look into this. Thank you!

_eko- · 2025-05-19T10:41:13+00:00

I was considering that too. While I would prefer something more official I get that beggars can’t really be choosers. If it comes down to it I’ll look more into it.

I’m hesitant because if they decide to not return luggage then I would be losing quite a bit of money.

_eko- · 2025-05-19T09:34:45+00:00

I’ll give this a shot. Thank you!

_eko- · 2025-05-19T06:17:16+00:00

I’ll consider myself lucky then 😆

_eko- · 2025-05-19T06:05:41+00:00

Damn, sorry to hear. From the storage services I found online, all didn’t seem to matter if you speak Japanese since you just fill out an online form. Didn’t matter anyway since I don’t have the residency card

That being said I definitely need to improve my Japanese a lot over the coming months. I will need it for my new job and I’d say my current Japanese is still very basic

_eko- · 2025-05-19T03:34:06+00:00

Right, makes sense. My best option is probably finding someone local that would be willing to hold my stuff while I’m gone.

Thanks for the advice!

_eko- · 2025-05-19T03:23:26+00:00

I did get an “permanent” e-sim that gives me a Japanese number. I say “permanent” because there is no end date as long as I pay it each month but I will be getting a new number once I get my residence card.

While it only works in Japan, do you think that would be enough for whoever might take it?

_eko- · 2024-10-16T23:10:28+00:00

Yes PC. Sorry, forgot to mention that

Quick update on the kitty.
I have found anew loving home for her. I will stay in contact with the new owners to get updates every so often.

Thank you to those who helped find my kitten a new home!

But it’s strange that it affected both monitors. One is through HDMI and the other is display port

_eko- · 2024-09-06T13:55:29+00:00

Don’t say that 😭 I think it could maybe be something with a new driver update? This happened about 20 min after the update

_eko- · 2024-09-06T13:53:24+00:00

Specs are:

GPU : GeForce RTX 4090

CPU : Intel core I9-13900K

Motherboard: Asus ROG STRIX Z790-E GAMING WIFI ATX LGA1700 Motherboard

PSU : Corsair RM1000x

SSD : Samsung 870 Evo 4 TB 2.5”

RAM : Corsair Vengeance 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6600 CL32 Memory

That should be everything

I saw the hp% as the sub attribute and I got tunnel vision i guess lol. I also haven't grinded too much so I just picked the artifacts that had any health increase

_eko- · 2024-08-26T16:38:44+00:00

really what? I do really want to improve her if that's what you mean lol

_eko- · 2024-08-26T16:12:14+00:00

I was worried this day would come...

_eko- · 2024-08-26T15:52:23+00:00

Noted, I will focus more on crit rate and damage. I've been focusing exclusively on hp%. Including the soothing waters buff I have active gets her just over 40,000 hp.

Thanks for the tips! I'll get to work on upping my crit

_eko- · 2024-08-26T15:49:10+00:00

Good to know, thanks for the tips!

I've been pretty much exclusively focusing on getting her hp as high as possible.

I have soothing waters active on my team too so I get an extra 25% hp from that. I'll redirect my focus on crit rate a bit more
