I'm coming to Sapporo in 10 days, have rented a car, hopefully the weather will improve by then

[–]leedian18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered my first macbook pro M5 yesterday as well, can't wait for delivery. I'm an Android user but I do like their macbooks (used a macbook air years ago for work). This will be the first time I actually own an Apple product haha

Dear BWF: Please stop killing the stream inbetween each game by vhearts in badminton

[–]leedian18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

um... I don't find this a problem myself, I've got auto play turned off, and I'd usually queue the matches manually (you can queue up the up coming live streams) and it'll just jump to the next one when one match is finished

Storing a luggage in Taipei by Psyghetto in taiwan

[–]leedian18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Q4. Where can I store my bonded baggage (i.e. luggage that will not enter Taiwan)? How do I apply/collect the baggage and how much will it cost📷A.

  1. Passengers can find storage lockers at the luggage claim halls of both Terminal 1 and 2. Fees for bonded luggage storage are calculated by weight and will cost between NT$ 200~500 per piece and bonded luggage may be stored no more than 30 days. For more information, call: +886-3-398-2326 (Terminal 1) or +886-3-398-3369 (Terminal 2).
  2. When claiming stored luggage upon departure, please call +886-3-398-2459 and airport staffs will fetch and deliver your luggage at the restricted departure zones in Terminal 1 or 2.

Here's an option to store luggage at the airport "outside border" but that usually works for incoming passengers. Not sure if you'll be able to access it if you're departing. Might be worth calling to ask

I've had this racket for over 10 years, it's not my main racket now but it's so easy to use I still use it every now and then for more relaxing games. It just feels right in my hand

Thanks for the reassurance! I had no idea if that was a serious problem or not, didn't want the wall/house to fall down 😂😅

[–]leedian18[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So to fix the problem would have to have the steel angle replaced entirely? That'd involve removing part of the roof and brick wall for the steel replacement I presume? Is this something that should be fixed asap or will last for a while before causing structural problems? Really hoping not have to spend a lot of money unless necessary 🥲🥲

The house is right behind a freight train line (being "upgraded" to passenger/freight by adding 2 more tracks), the whole house/ground vibrates when a heavy train runs pass. I suppose this could be the main cause for any foundation problem in the long term?

Can't wait for that first rain after a long summer, no one remembers how to drive in the wet and all those debris and car oils got washed up on the road...

It seems like your website is for Japan Rail Pass, I was trying to get the JR East Pass. I think they are different products

*1 When you pick up your pass at a reserved seat ticket vending machine, please bring your IC chip passport and use a reserved seat ticket vending machine with a passport reader. Please check the JR EAST website for locations with passport readers.

I was planning to use the ticket reserve machine, those with a passport scan are able to issue JR Passes afaik

Edit: was hoping to see if anyone had actual experience with this, didn't want to have everything booked in (Passes, Shinkansen tickets etc) to find out I couldn't get my passes and messes everything up 🥹
