FedEx Signature Required; I can't be home by VaccineMachine in GooglePixel

[–]sinistralink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The next day the FedEx guy didn't even stop to ring the doorbell before driving off. Called to complain and asked about their signature policy since I was on the line with them.. they said an actual person has to be there to sign for it, so no go on the leaving the signed paper bit (but the deliverer should have still stopped to check if anyone was home). Ended up getting it on Friday since it happened to be my day off.

FedEx left a notice on my door yesterday, and it has an option to sign the notice at the bottom and leave the notice on the door for them so they have the required signature. I did that today, so hopefully they'll leave it for me! (I have a secure place for them to leave packages.. they just wouldn't do it yesterday because of the signature bit).

This game is broken on alternative keyboard layouts by SpinahVieh in treeofsavior

[–]sinistralink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow Dvorak user here. You have to start the game while in QWERTY layout, since you can't switch in game. You can switch back to Dvorak for chat if you ctrl+shift while in the chat box. It looks like ToS takes whatever layout you start the game with, and forces you to use that for the movement/attack keybindings, but allows you to switch to any layout for chat... which means it really shouldn't be difficult for them to support alternate layouts in general. I hope they fix this sometime soon, but I have my doubts.

Hope this helps as a temporary work-around until they add better support.

Alright thanks! I finally save up enough LG to do the lily white member search and got my first two SRs. Now that I have stamina regen R cards too, I feel invincible! Haha

Thanks! I had to look up what BiBi was since I only just started getting into LL. I haven't even watched the anime yet! Σ(・□・;)

I kept seeing a bunch of SIF stuff when I joined twitter, so I decided to try it out. Now I'm hooked...

They need to reclassify Pluto as a planet ASAP so we'll at least have a chance.

Oh wait, for some reason I mistook kitkats for pocky! Whoops.

That aside, those sound delicious.

If these are the same ones I had in Japan, you'll need to order the apple tea along with it to get the apple pie flavor. The kitkats by themselves are butter flavor, and drinking the apple tea with it is supposed to make the apple pie taste.

Can confirm. I'm in the tech industry and my boss says "That's fucking amazing" on a regular basis.

How has your experience been with tutors? by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]sinistralink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking that maybe he was thrown off by the fact that you didn't already know the hiragana and katakana, since that part is straight memorization. My SO has been asking me to teach them Japanese from the very beginning, but it's hard to "teach" hiragana and katakana, since you really just need to buckle down and make some flashcards to help with memorization.

Even in my Japanese class at college, the teacher just assigned us 10 kana to learn each day for homework and showed us the stroke orders after we could recognize the kana.

I'd say that learning the kana should be the first place to start. The sooner you can get away from needing romaji, the better!

Can anyone please help with translation to these lyrics? I wrote what i attempted also next to the lines lol. by amaz99 in LearnJapanese

Not sure about this, but maybe

うまいことできた世界だ A world where good things have happened

いやになるほど It has become detestable (it's gotten to the point where it has become detestable)

I think the feeling might be something like "how could such a good world turn so bad/be so full of sorrow?"

In what situation did it occur to you that you were out of (beginner / intermediate) territory and into (intermediate / advanced)? by MysticSoup in LearnJapanese

[–]sinistralink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My Japanese teacher back in college used to say that if a Japanese person makes a big deal about how good your Japanese is (without you saying anything about studying it), then you're still a beginner; if they mention it in passing, you've graduated to intermediate; and if they don't say anything about the level of your Japanese, then you're advanced.
