I'm not sure about the exact numbers, but 'Tokyo Metro' is only a small part of the Tokyo train network. There is also Toei Subway, JR East trains, Minato-Mirai, ...the list goes on. 2100 may work for the entire metropolitan

I have the recent one (G5), and it has both. 2 Sim card slots, SD card slot, replacable battery. The first one also had a replacable battery. Didn't know the 3rd Generation didn't! In that case I'm glad they reverted their de

Everytime there's a post about Stripe, it is a positive post. Programms they initiate, people they hire, how they act in their business. To me they seem like an example of a 'good' company with great culture as opposed to wh

The Switch is supposed to have excellent hardware. Also, the majority of people at preview events (greatly) praised the motion controls of the upcoming game ARMS. HD Rumble also is reported to be amazing. I for one am excited to play with w

Perhaps it's the package update checker? I have it turned on by default and couldn't find an option to turn it off (assuming it's different from the Atom update checker, which updates the editor).
