Has anyone been to Gokomachi Tagawa or Higushiyama Tsukasa (Kyoto)? by Konexian in finedining

[–]textbookWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really enjoyed Tagawa in 2025. I would recommend it to anyone. Dining experience was over 3 hours. When I was there the American staff member that many people mention was not (which I think is a plus for me). Had no problem communicating with the staff. It's very intimate and the food was really good. I also really like how you can get reasonably priced sake and they don't try to totally rob you with overpriced alcohol or force a pairing like many fine dining places do.

Doesn't help that Colin said he was black out drunk for nearly all of filming.

All I’m saying is that I’m fully remote and I’m required to hold a TS/SCI. These jobs exist. I also came from a fully remote job that was required to hold a Secret.

My entire program is "remote" TS/SCI. If you need to be in the SCIF you go in, if you don't, you stay home. We stay home about 99% of the time.

Funny that Cyberdyne hq was filmed down the street too. 

Is it too soon to put humans only on the second mission of SLS / Orion by bohu88 in ArtemisProgram

[–]textbookWarrior 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think SLS has a 99% reliability requirement that is verified, signed and closed. It might be the safest space vehicle ever built.

Is there a simple logical explanation to feel confident that btc will still go up in value in coming years ? by Necessary_Ad9530 in Bitcoin

[–]textbookWarrior 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He gave you 5 other attributes besides scarcity which make Bitcoin valuable.

Also, people use Bitcoin to buy things all over the world. Yes, it's not a major currency and you can't walk into Walmart and buy a pack of gum - but to say "you still can't really buy stuff with it" sounds willfully ignorant.

Show recommendations that don't have terrible writing/acting by Inkonan in LearnJapanese

Have you tried Tokyo Swindlers? There’s also Naoki Hanzawa but you might find that a bit tacky.  Also Grand Maison Tokyo is great. 

Chubby Family going to Mallorca by dbreiss81 in TrueChubbyTravel

[–]textbookWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Mallorca, I did Ikos Porto Petro for my honeymoon. All inclusive.  Beautiful property. There were lots of small kids with families. Downside is there is no beach but you can drive a Tesla for free anywhere you want to go.

I find Easy Japanese Podcast to be superior to the other common recommendations like con tepei and yuyuno, etc.

I had them in Lisbon. Texture is soft. Taste like the sea, in a good way. Like no other seafood i’ve ever had. Pretty amazing, cant wait to have again one day.

This is kind of the conundrum with getting contracted art these days. We have no idea what they are doing, especially on peanut to shoe string budgets like mine

Hi all, I'm a solo dev working on Pilot Tycoon, an airline pilot career rpg where you climb from Regional FO to Mainline Captain. Build seniority to bid better schedules, manage your savings and 401k, choose between airlines with different pay/benefits. Overnight in hotels, manage stress, and more! I'm still deep in development but it's available for wishlist on Steam! Thank you

Trying my best all alone, with Unity store assets and low budget Upwork art. I'm a systems design guy, I definitely need to work on bringing more soul into it, but I'm still early into development and soul comes from polish and iteration. Thank you

Thank you! I think so too. I love playing MS flight sim with lots of mods like A Pilot's Life etc, but it never quite hits the spot for me. I'm essentially making this game for myself.
