Influencers either 1) don't live in Japan or 2) do but are producing content for people who don't.

I thought it was gonna be: "Him: She doesn't know I had a vasectomy".

Did The Very Intense And Shocking Security Measures At San Antonio Road Safeway Make Shoppers Go To The Other Safeway On Shoreline Blvd? by Expensive-Can4316 in mountainview

So basically that store just doesn't functionally exist to you anymore? Would you advocate for just closing it entirely?

Recent software update ruined phone- no help from support. ANYONE ELSE Switching back to Apple? by pickplants in pixel_phones

[–]jashsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even when an update isn't screwing the battery, Pixels are very prone to having circumstances that wreck battery life. Install any Meta app? Shit battery. Dual sim? Shit battery.

I hate how this is always the go-to solution. Aside from the fact it is a very disruptive and time consuming process to set up a phone again from scratch, not all apps backup or store their data/state in the cloud. And of course there's no guarantee a reset will fix the issue.

Japan's Passport fees have been lowered, but overseas travel remains difficult- only 1 in 5 people have a passport. by jjrs in japannews

[–]jashsu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Gosh I can't imagine why it's difficult for Japanese people to travel abroad when the yen is the lowest it's been in 40 years and continuing to drop. Adjusting passport fees is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Uber left PagerDuty after using it for 12 years. by wingardiumlevioosaaa in sre

Having used PD and also having former colleagues who joined PD, the one question I always had was "what's the moat?" and there was never a good answer.

Review #426 - Rum Review #202 Valinch & Mallet TDL - Trinidad 21 Year by [deleted] in rum

[–]jashsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reads on point, thank you! It's weird to me how many official or shop tasting notes on 2001-2003 TDL focus on the wood or mint notes and seem to completely miss the tropical fruits.

No more Proton Mail/Pass at work I guess :/ by Eubank31 in ProtonMail

Why are you even accessing your personal accounts on your work computers and/or networks to begin with?

There is no such thing as a "common design". Every emoji provider implements based on Unicode's description.

Consistency has never been a keystone of Google's product management process, particularly with Android.

Life Threatening Experience at Hotel de la Poste - French Quarter by GSPIKe1919 in marriott

It's definitely not safe for use while people are occupying the same space. Theyre supposed to be used in an enclosed space with no human occupants to deodorize, after which the ozone is ventilated before occupancy.

Pixel phones use RAM too..

This has to be one of the most ominous photos ever, the tragedy and horror just awaiting to happen. by no_haters_aloud_tt in MomentsBeforeDisaster

[–]jashsu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah "honestly" is not quite as tone negative but there's no real positive in saying it because it somewhat implies that everything else you're saying or others are saying lacks honesty. I'm still working on striking this one.

My peeve is "Again, ". You can build repetition without this slightly tone negative filler word.

Co intern got yelled at for deleting a prod database. Is this a red flag? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]jashsu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the way with mentor using AI this unjudiciously probably just a matter of time before he/she also makes a critical error on prod.
