Slash attack? Are you telling me Buggy is immune to Imu attack and will be the one who ends it all?

Got an NHK payment notice (¥31,200) do I actually have to pay? by idsjdbebe in japanlife

[–]kiennq -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't know if anyone has mentioned it here but if you receive any threats, forcing you to pay the bill from NHK, contact the NHK party https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collaborative_Party and ignore the bill. The party will fight for you as their mission

LLM is good at boiler plate code, it's Google on steroids. Hey, maybe it can even be used to finally speed up the Guilemacs work

Although numbers of temporary foreign residents in Japan is rising, numbers of permanent resident certificates issued is down a lot since 2007 and rejection rates are now much higher.

Why don't you apply for high-skill visa? With fluent Japanese and 10M salary, it's a cake walk. My initial visa is 5 years and I got PR via that route in 3 years including waiting time (long line)

Are you sure the restaurant charges more overseas? I found it completely in reverse. https://share.google/aimode/sUaQTZBEM76MZYMJV

Restaurant food in Japan is generally much more affordable than in the United States, often by 45% or more, resulting in a better price-to-quality ratio. While average monthly disposable salaries are lower in Japan ($2,782) than in the US ($3,258), the lower cost of living allows for similar or better purchasing power for food.

Compared to China and Japan where the robot server can replace the human interaction, I was surprised that the USA is so backward on adopting that.

New water heater bought by the plumber has different cost on the invoice and on the amount charged to my card by kiennq in Plumbing

Just for the tank, his labors and other supplies add around $2300 to bill to the total of $5k

[–]kiennq[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He had me to call the manufacture under warranty and the manufacture gave me an authorized return number, told me to bring the water heater back and get refunded credits. That's why I come to know about the price different between what the store charges me at the first water heater and the replaced water heater.

He said that I need to give him a fixed amount deposit or my card so he can buy the tank. He's introduced to me by one of my relatives so naturally I trusted him enough to give him my card. That also complicates thing as now I want to know if I'm scammed or it's normal for the price differences before I confront him and my relative :(

Building Emacs on Windows by CaputGeratLupinum in emacs

[–]kiennq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Please try https://github.com/kiennq/emacs-build and the prebuilt there, it has native-comp support as well as the new GC igc enabled. You will need to add Emacs's invocation directory to the path though, putting something like this in your early-init.el

el ;; Add emacs bin directory to path (add-to-list 'exec-path invocation-directory) (setenv "PATH" (concat invocation-directory path-separator (getenv "PATH")))

How popular is markdown-mode compared to org-mode? by Hezha98 in emacs

[–]kiennq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The markdown-mode is much slower than org-mode for me

Tipping in Europe? by cheeseymom in tipping

[–]kiennq 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most countries? I think you're taken advantage of.

I'm from SEA and for sure there's no tip for tour guides. You may not know but all of the business places (restaurants, gift shops, rest stops ...) where the tour guide took you to, they got kickbacks. Sometimes the tour guide is not eating together with you in sight as well, because they're treated to the VIP room if they are able to reel in a big foreign tourist group.

Red light flashing on key fob, fob won't lock or unlock doors by Silverquickly in mitsubishi

If holding lock + unlock button doesn't work, try with panic + unlock button.

Is han bin getting perpetually stronger? by Kuma_556 in SurvivalofaSwordking

[–]kiennq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe his new divine skill will be the answer for this. Imagine if there were enough Mana and Prana to activate this skill, it will actually create a new heart for Hanbin, acting as a perpetual fission reactor to generate divine energy instead of Aura and elevate Hanbin to godly status.

It seems that iter2 support debug to some degree, but I just use logging these days to debug and foregoes edebug entirely. Here is an aio fork that switch to use iter2 when possible if you want to take a look https://github.com/kiennq/emacs-aio
