How about JCB?

I guess it is to hold the compressor for a split system air conditioner.

Are the contents less by weight? I don’t doubt your frustration. But when I was a kid, the happy meals came in a cardboard box, but now they come in a paper bag (at least in Japan). Obviously to save money. Maybe they just cut the cardboard box to save money? FWIW I actually ate a large fries yesterday and they came in the traditional packaging, so this was surprising for me.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

Reader view on most browsers will bypass articles like this. It worked for me.

Didn’t know about this. Checking it out now, thanks!

It would except for the fact that shoe sizes here, from babies to adults are only sized in centimetres. If there are international sizes printed on the shoes, they have no meaning to residents in Japan. Check the tag inside your shoes; If they have international sizes printed on them, you’ll see Japan’s is in centimetres, and may have EE (or more Es) next to it to denote width. If there is nothing, then they are standard width.

Children’s clothing is also sized in centimetres. Makes things really simple.

No trash cans in the parks around here. Train stations tend to only have trash cans on the platforms, not inside the station (just my experience, not definitive). You just learn to carry your trash with you until you find somewhere to dispose of it. I don’t see the big deal. If you do buy something from a street vendor say in a park or at a festival, they will provide a way to dispose of it. Also, it is not so common to eat whilst walking, so it reduces the problem considerably.

Same, but in Japan.

Have you got compatibility turned on in the photos app?

I feel like nobody here read the actual article.

I agree. Most people are acting like they are killing off the whole product line (of which there is only one product currently). However, the article clearly states that a second generation product is in the works.

I’ll save you guys from watching. It was just a bog standard crappy USB C cable. This video reeks of advertising to me. The tool which was used to identify the cable (which tbh I thought was pretty cool, so I searched it using the obvious hints in the video) is a kickstarter which is starting sometime today. Awfully sus!

Yep! So convenient /s

It sucks, yes. But, if you select the “web” tab instead of the “all” tab at the top of the page, you’ll get something more akin to what you’re looking for. There’s probably even a way to script it so that it defaults to that view.

That’s totally true. I do see where they have posted. I personally disagree that it is mildly infuriating though. We’re all allowed our own opinions. If I was working in tech support and had the OP call up, their actions would come across as mildly infuriating.

OPs bank has provided the solution. For whatever reason, they’re choosing not to use it. I think they’re making a mountain out of a molehill.

Take a photo of the QR code with your smartphone, or display the QR code on your phone, and scan the screen with your webcam. Problem solved.

lol wtf an inactivity fee for a virtual prepaid card is charged every month? Who hurt them?

Japan here. I’ve never seen them.
