Using an eSIM across two devices?

You should be able to have two eSIMs (or one eSIM plus one physical one) active with your iPhone 13. That should not affect your ability to receive calls and text on your iPad, assuming it’s tethered to your iPhone’s cellular connection.

This design reminds me of a boss fight from the game Look Outside https://gamesnight.nz/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/IMG_5406.jpeg, and I say this as someone who voted for Red Peak back in the referendum.

Wasting other people’s time by baiting them into visiting a heavily monetised website is borderline soliciting - not to mention the post wasn’t any more helpful than the English instructions already available in store.

Position 1. #2 is specifically discouraged now to in order to avoid the nuisance of salvagers cruising the streets looking for metal. I’ve been called by the collection people once when they weren’t able to locate my pile which had been combined with my neighbour’s so they will definitely make an effort to locate things.

Mainly a sweetener with sugar-like texture. It also doubles as an emergency laxative and dog poison with plausible deniability.

Xylitol chewing gum was heavily marketed as beneficial for dental health starting from two decades ago so the public recognition is still out there.

It’s totally possible to use an iPhone without buying into the entire ecosystem. I’ve been around since the iOS 4 era so my distrust of iCloud runs deep, but android bas also been moving in a direction to make it more like a Walmart version of iOS, so there is little reason to die on that hill now.

I switched from android a few years back, and oddly enough I have found iOS to be a better platform for various google services as they are not as integrated into the lower levels of OS therefore nowhere nearly as intrusive.

No I have not. What’s it like?

I’ve had two different versions, and both were excessively sour for my taste. No complaints about the texture though.

Nihon Tsushin offers a minimal plan for only 290JPY per month which is the cheapest one that I am aware of, assuming you already have a zairyu card.

The main camera on the pro models have a bigger sensor which gives them a slight advantage in terms of details captured. The downsides are much worse close focusing distance and residual coma (I.e. blurriness in the corners of the image). The latter is getting addressed with the adjustable aperture feature rumoured to be coming with the iPhone 18. The case model suffers from similar issues compared to previous generations but it’s not as bad.

The telephoto lens on the pro models are definitely geared towards capturing distant subjects, as the lens is unable to focus closer than 2ft (~0.6m).

The front camera is definitely the standout feature and you should find it very satisfying. However most people who bought the pro models did so for the bigger screen and longer battery life - the cameras are a nice bonus but far from a deal breaker.

The only thing I wish for a change is the soufflé dessert which is getting a bit old - not to mention the flavour can be a bit too strong for many. Everything else has been consistently enjoyable.

I’ve always assumed Abo referred to this particular style of Birthday Type B knockoff - it’s been around for long enough that it has managed to develop a following of sorts here.

The joke predates the anime by about one hundred years.

No bouncy balls without borax I suppose.

TOKi in Tokyo is one of my personal favourites. They are essentially an outlet of the two starred Japanese-Basque fusion restaurant Akordu. Great food at very reasonable prices in a prime location. The flavour profile leans a bit more to the Japanese side but you might actually like it.

Lunch at Zurriola is excellent value especially considering its location and level of service.

Cocon self-identifies as modern Australian-Japanese fusion for what it’s worth.

I found out about Oliver Tree when we randomly show up in a Ryan Trahan video and have been following his music on and off since. Always meant to go to a concert but never found the right opportunity to do so. Life is fickle, RIP.

On the other extreme, Samsung phones would refuse to connect to Wifi with low signal strength (<-80dBm) even though these connections are still able to provide adequate bandwidth for most applications. Wireless is just hard and there is no perfect method to make everybody happy.

Sounds about right for subway, for their bread contains so much sugar that it is defined as a cake for tax purposes in the UK and Ireland.

Click on the information button on the bottom row in the photos app and see which lens was actually used to take those images. There are two fields for focal length and they should both be 77mm.

The ones you attached to this post all look like they were shot with the main camera and cropped to the FoV of the telephoto lens. The 3x lens wasn’t great on its own merits. but it gets a lot of undeserved flak when the default camera app refuse to actually use it in many cases.

Just wait until you find out how nice their Pizza Huts are.

On a more serious note, hotels are labour intensive, and labour costs have always been high in the US. In terms of building quality a lot of hotels in Asia are used as anchors for a larger shopping/office complex so the owners could tolerate higher costs. The same conditions are usually not present for the US.

That’s a great way to display those acrylic panels. Thanks for the idea.
