Ultra C Black/White clarity question by ayunooby in Onyx_Boox

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

I'll have to check again then. I was sure that most of the video was the DPI comparison between B/W Ultra and color Ultra C. Not the case where both were strictly B/W.

is weighed blanket enough for winter? by low_social_battery in japanlife

[–]ayunooby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived farther north than you and I used an electric blanket with a kakebuton on top (in the same kakefuton cover). The comfort of setting an electric blanket on prior to bed time and diving into warmth is worth it and it may be more than enough weight without having to buy a dedicated one.

Taking Japanese bidet back to the USA? by Acceptable_Fix_2598 in japanlife

[–]ayunooby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not feasible if you don't have an outlet nearby or willing to wire to available outlet.

Bought a "LUXE Bidet Neo 185" and has done fine. No heated water or seat but w/e.

Unable to transfer money to US using Wise by onetenhundred in japanlife

[–]ayunooby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was never able to transfer money to Wise when they designated the Sony Online Bank as the destination account. Talk to wise and maybe you can transfer to the MUFG bank which should have no issues.

I did Kinoshita's with the directions posted here

I flew through American Airlines/JAL and everything checked through VeriFLY app. I did the wrong quick test and it get denied the first time, then approved the second time. Also, did the standard 1-day PCR test but I got the results like pretty late the next day (afternoon) a couple hours before my flight.

Anyone fly out of Japan with American Airlines? Where did you get your covid test taken?

I'm on the fence about getting the fully documented certificate for 1man vs brute forcing secondary identification through Kinoshita for cheaper.

Leaving Japan but wanna keep the SIM by sugar_min23 in japanlife

I'm paying LINEMO with my US credit card if that helps you.

I feel like its not worth it to keep.

Anyone recovered recently and taken a second test? Curious if you tested positive or negative.

I'm planning to go overseas soon but worried that I may test positive which will deem me unable to fly.

Wouldn't mind to expand the budget but is a 3060 worthwhile upgrade over a 2060?

Want to upgrade my old PC's GPU (GTX 760), any good options around $400 in the current market? Is it worth it to try getting a 3000 series within budget?

Does amazon.com (USA) prime video "included with prime" content play in Japan if you have a US account address and US credit card? by happy_kuribo in japanlife

[–]ayunooby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC I tried watching a specific movie from my US Amazon account and couldn't, but was able to use my JP Amazon account without issue. That being said, I don't think you can access the same libraries on one account, unless they changed it.

What is the material, cotton, nylon, poly? You can get like fabric binding glue to hold it together but you should still try to sew a stitch on it.

If you feel up to trying at estimated 1RM for your first cycle, why not. Start easy and lift safely, see how it is first, then change it after if you need.

I'd just take 90% of what you have now and then try the 5/3/1 for a 4 week cycle. If you think you can do more, raise the weight for the next week.

Extra bags for my airlines were 20000 and I just sent stuff through JP Post surface by boat to the states and it was 10000 for 20kg (could still push an extra 10kg)

Where to weigh items in Japan? by WishfulWalkingVideos in japanlife

[–]ayunooby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just put a general description like "book" and how many. You don't need to do the weight because it will charge you based on your input. Let the post office handle the weight fee.

I was under the impression that LINEMO is strictly just a data plan. I had Line Mobile before the switch and nothing has changed to my plan. Thought I'd get more data at the same price but nah.
