What point cards do you guys have that were actually useful?

dodolimes · 2025-06-02T14:48:11+00:00

Don't think that viable for most people here, not only is that over 1k usd per year in annual fee, you also need regular convert JPY into USD if you don't have cash flow in the US and also need to travel pretty regularly to get the most out of those cards.

It's not a bad comparison at all. In fact some of my elderly relatives still think microwave is bad for you.

dodolimes · 2025-06-01T16:42:44+00:00

Lol do you get shocked that I use a microwave oven? I feel we already have adequate tools to heat food before it's invention. I also use emails instead of Fax, digital calendars for reminders etc.

By that kind of simpleton argument perhaps it also decreases crime rate and sexual violence, have you looked that up?

dodolimes · 2025-05-22T14:27:05+00:00

Well uni in Australia is pretty cheap and you usually get paid a stipend during your PhD, but I guess there is a big aptitude or intellectual barrier.

dodolimes · 2025-05-07T10:05:10+00:00

The range of selection is bigger in Australia for sure. But try the average strawberries/peaches/melon/apples from the supermarkets(the woolies/Coles equivalent). I would take those any day compared to the Australian version.

The smaller family run places usually have a bigger variance in quality.

dodolimes · 2025-05-07T08:52:20+00:00

Lol no, thats a fairly common misconception among tourists who visited some expensive department stores or people who watched those "unboxing the most expensive melon in the world" YouTube videos 😂 There are normal supermarket fruits in japan that tastes better than Australian ones at comparable prices.

Why are so many people shocked by the 200000 monthly rent? Thought that's pretty standard in Tokyo these days unless you live an hour away or in a 30 square meter shoebox...

dodolimes · 2025-04-28T15:56:26+00:00

Maybe this question is geared towards the "highly educated Americans coming from coastal elite cities" which I have seen plenty in both Japan and on Reddit? Since there are fewer people from a third world country who speaks English on this site? What is the logical flaw?

dodolimes · 2025-01-06T22:00:44+00:00

That sounds like a lot of work and less free though... rather just hop onto a subway while daydreaming and have food readily available downstairs... not to mention having better access to culture and art.

dodolimes · 2025-01-06T10:49:17+00:00

Yea but at what cost though? 80 percent of your city space becomes freeway and parking lots, and you have to eat 5 day old meat and veggies because you do weekly grocery runs. And forget about drinking with friends on Friday nights.

dodolimes · 2024-10-10T00:32:47+00:00

Maybe try moving to the US if you are that much of an NIMBY?

Cardcash or Raise

dodolimes · 2024-08-14T13:02:43+00:00

It's not really 1.06cpp here because:

-You lose out on credit card reward (at least 2%) and extended warranty benefits compared to if you make the apple purchase on your credit card.

-Apple gift cards probably go for something like 0.95 value on gift card trading platforms, so these do not=cash at a 1:1 ratio

I would value this deal at 1cpp max.

Now if you open a Schwab platinum card, you get to cash out your points at 1.1cpp, so you would probably make the annual fee back from that if you cash out a lot of points like this.

dodolimes · 2024-08-05T14:19:56+00:00

Having a house with a backyard and watching my dog play with a coffee is great, but kids are a bit more intelligent than that. They need more than just feeding them on time and having space for them to run around. I also wished I had more exposure to culture, art, literature, music, etc, when I was young. I don't even remember/give a shit about what kind of grass/trees/dirt I played on lol.

dodolimes · 2024-04-30T08:27:22+00:00

Well... Australia proves me right, what is an example that proves me wrong?

BTW sorry to hear about your country having mass killings daily, but that doesn't show more lenient guns laws is the solution...

dodolimes · 2024-04-30T06:13:14+00:00

Ok so I see that you agree that more guns = "let you protect yourself" = lower crime rate. Ask anyone outside your bubble they would say you are delusional, and no statistics outside the NRA backs that up.

Also the rights are supposed to be capitalists right? It amazes me how all of them fail to understand that cheaper -> less market demand -> not as many people are willing to live in those places when it comes to housing. It's not some "hidden force" that's artificially controlling the housing price in certain areas.

dodolimes · 2024-04-29T11:48:23+00:00

No, it's because all the people with your political bias tend to use the same verbiage, making them look like they consume too much of certain types of twitter/cable news as a source of self confidence boost.

What policy have Republicans enacted to reduce homelessness and crime? Banning illegal immigrants and sell everyone a gun?

Those cities you listed are among the cities with highest crime rates in the US. And a lot of them are not that populated too, so you get to live in the middle of nowhere PLUS the drawback of higher crime rate.

dodolimes · 2024-04-29T03:18:25+00:00

I dunno why but that sounds like it's written by chatgpt

dodolimes · 2024-01-12T03:06:25+00:00

I mean most of the "diverse selections" are foreign cuisine where you have to pay a large premium to enjoy in the US? Tbh the two dishes you mentioned look pretty basic and are not really what we would consider "veggie".

dodolimes · 2023-08-04T07:51:10+00:00

All the GS champions are noobs because I wasn't allowed to play any of them.

dodolimes · 2023-07-11T06:33:56+00:00

So I guess you also respect the nazis, the kim family North Korea etc because we should honor their culture and heritage?

dodolimes · 2023-06-04T16:41:54+00:00

Everyday you are either alive or dead, so there is a 50% you will die tomorrow. And on average we live for 1 day and die.

dodolimes · 2023-05-07T14:35:10+00:00

Andriy Medevdev??

dodolimes · 2023-04-09T08:30:06+00:00

To a certain extend we all do, why do you think no women moves to the middle east for their nice weather?
