This post it timestamped March 30, which is "just" three days ago; but in this case is _over_ three days ago.

Maybe it's a non-native speaker thing; but for me when you says "Apple Pay uses XYZ here"; it implies exclusivity, that it underpins the whole system; not that it's one of the available option. I can see now that's

This is a very weird understanding of what IC cards are in Japan. Yes, Apple Pay supports them, and they're ephemeral and easily recreated, and semi-anonymous; but Apple Pay over here absolutely still supports "regular" cards

I'm confused; what changes to indoor CO2 levels do you think that would bring?

You’ll have lower CO2 levels in a dense urban housing with windows open, than in a home in the middle of nowhere with the windows closed. The issue isn’t the higher amount of CO2 in the ambient air in the cities (AIUI it is; marginally; but

I generally agree with you - I spent years flying across the world with a carry-on only and I still miss that lifestyle. But Japan is the kind of place that people want to bring a whole lot of stuff back - I know a lot of people who basical

This very much depends on where in Tokyo you live, no? Even though NRT is in the middle of nowhere, getting there from my place in Asakusa still is faster then getting across the city to get to HND.

For anyone looking for actual pro-move here: pack what you need for the next day or two in the carry-on, and ship your heavy luggage to the hotel, and then take the fastest train you can afford to get where you’re going. Some of the Japans

You can either try meeting people where they're at and understand the issues they're having; or continue to try to shame them into getting thinner. Past ~30 years have shown us that the latter _very clearly_ doesn't work, but

This is pretty much exactly the opposite of what modern science tells us about weight loss, and especially the _psychology_ of it. It _is_ that hard, and even if you starve yourself, the body just lowers your BMR to compensate. I highly rec

That's probably true in the US; much less so in Asia or places with good public transit. There's a Hyatt House I pass by sometimes right next to the Shibuya crossing; though I'm guessing that one definitely does not have the

They don't mean upgrading to a suite at a "regular" hotel; there are chains specializing in renting out "home-style" rooms ("extended-stay" is the industry term, I believe), and I've seen them referre
