Hi all,

I have been desperately searching for the URL on the Tokyo postcards, just to sign up for the mailing lists. Even went to multiple record stores in Tokyo here but no luck.

Anyone has the URL? Or a picture of the QR code? Would be very grateful! I realize it is probably not in any way a must to get tickets, but it would provide me with some peace of mind. Been waiting over a decade to get an opportunity to see Radiohead live.

For quite a while now I have been eyeing one of the tote bags for a personal item that will nicely fit on top of my roller while walking around, and can be used as a quick-access bag during travel/flights to carry and access my essentials. I hoped the Travel Weekender would fill this need, but it is simply much too large for my needs.

Does anyone have both of these bags and is able to give me a rundown of how they compare? I like the idea of the City Tote for its lightweight nature, although it is technically slightly too large to be a personal item on most flights (but it is certainly flexible/foldable enough to hide that fact).

On the other hand the design of the Everyday Tote seems mor

Hi all,

First of all I want to express my appreciation for a YNAB alternative that caters to manual users. As someone who lives in Japan manual usage has always been my only option and I felt very unhappy with how YNAB solely seems to cater to user with bank integrations etc

On that note, I have noticed that JPY is a little wonky in the current software. As you may know, JPY does not have cents. Therefore, whereas 100¥ is possible, something like 100.20¥ is impossible. Despite that, BFB keeps insisting on decimal number input. When I want to log a ¥1000 transaction, I have to add two zeros to make it ¥1000.00.

This Is especially bothersome when logging transactions on the go or

Hi everyone, there was already a thread yesterday about lag where some people mentioned this issue, but I am currently (24 hours later) still struggling to get into the game.

The launcher simply gets stuck on some part of the launching process, not even taking me to the login screen. Is it just me? I just subbed to VIP so it's quite unfortunate to be locked out of the game for 24+ hours at this point.

Hi everyone, for several months now I have been in doubt about which version of HOME to purchase. This decision was delayed because I was still unsure if I actually wanted to read these books, but as I greatly enjoyed Unfinished Tales and am currently very much enjoying Beren & Luthien I think the decision has been made. I have been reading various posts by people asking similar questions, but as we have some new editions on the menu I figured a new thread may be justified.

The great conundrum for me is currently which edition to get. It is essentially a balancing act between reading convenience, aesthetics, and price. I foresee the following options, ranked based on my current preference:

I have been running quite consistently for over two years now, currently averaging about 4 runs a week with a total of 40~50km of total distance.

I started my running journey following training plans that included a variety of different runs, including interval runs, negative splits, high cadence, tempo runs, you name it. Basically starting with C25K programmes, and following Garmin training plans after this. This would cause me injuries from time to time, and I would often take breaks to recover and restart the training plans.

I never had a goal apart from enjoying my runs, getting the nice mental benefits, and burning some calories while I was at it. And as a result, over the past year

The title basically sums it up, I currently live in a country that requires a 14 day quarantine upon re-entry which is strictly enforced (so there really is no leaving my apartment) regardless of vaccinations etc. I would like to see my family for the first time in years during Christmas this year, so I will likely face 14 days of quarantine + 2 days of traveling upon return, meaning I cannot run for a total of 16 days. I currently run a minimum of 4 days a week and have consistently done so for over two years.

I guess some of you can understand that the idea of not running for more than two weeks is quite daunting to me, as it took a really long time for me to get to my current running for

I've been running on and off for about three years, mostly through the use of publicly available training plans. My running journey started with a C25K programme, after which I started running regular 5Ks (3 times a week) until life got in the way and I quit . Long story short I kept getting back into running, kept following C25K plans, and every time I got back into running was a strong reminder how much I like it. At some point I bought a Garmin watch and haven't looked back.

I've been running consistently (4 times a week) since November, and do it mainly because it's a wonderful form of stress relief and self-improvement. I use the Garmin Coach plans by Amy Parkerson-Mitchell and went fr

This might be a long shot, but I am looking for a store that sells the new Sandman Universe chapters currently being released in the US. I managed to pick up the first two chapters during a short visit back home in Europe, but I can't seem to find any retailers that stock them Japan-side. Does anyone have any suggestions? I already tried all the obvious large book stores and some speciality shops like Mandarake. Thanks!

For extra context, these are the comics I'm looking for: Vertigo (especially House of Whispers)

Edit: Ok so it turns out I didn't do my research, [this website](https://www.comicshoplocator.co

As the title explains, I recently moved to Japan and decided to take my beloved Technivorm Moccamaster with me. I really love the coffee it makes, and I figured I could buy a transformer here to use it (It's 220~240V and Japan is 100V). However, I didn't realize that a suitable transformer will run me upwards of a 100 bucks or more. This means that I could also just buy an equally expensive Japanese coffee maker instead.

I already own manual pour-over equipment and an aeropress, I just really like having a drip machine for instant delicious coffee in the morning. Japan has a lot of really well-regarded coffee equipment makers like Hario and Kalita, so my eyes were quickly drawn to this:

I'd like to start off by saying I absolutely love my Mighty, it has gotten quite a bit of use over the past two years and I've always considered it a great purchase and investment. I spent 6 months abroad where I couldn't use my Mighty, so in total I used it for about 1.5 years on a regular basis.

About a week ago my Mighty started having some trouble charging. The charger would only work when inserting it at a specific angle, but apart from being a little bothersome when using it plugged in the charging worked fine. I decided to buy a new power adapter to have one on hand when the old one inevitably died. Strangely, the new power adapter didn't work at all. Not even when inserting it at t

Hey all, as the title indicates I'll be living in Osaka for half a year starting next February. I'll be an intern at a consulate in Chuo-ku, close to Kitahama station and work there full-time. Over the course of the next two months I want to find a nice apartment that won't cause me to have a nightmarish daily commute but is still reasonably located/priced.

I already did a lot of research both on this subreddit and through search engines, and I kinda have a general idea of what areas to avoid/go for, but I was hoping to get some advice that's more tailored to my specific needs.

I'm generally a private person and I like having my alone time, but I also love the opportunity to meet new peopl

Recently I've been going down the black coffee rabbit hole, trying to rid myself of my unhealthy sugar & cream habit, and because I've had some genuinely amazing black coffees. I want to have great black coffee at home instead of going to my local coffee place all the time, but my concern is needing to spend tremendous amounts of money to get what I like.

I've read most suggestions here for the french press, aeropress, and some great pour overs. I honestly love the idea, but with college resuming in a month I'm afraid I won't have time in the mornings and slack off. Therefore I feel an automatic machine is the way to go for me. Preferably an SCAA-certified machine so I can get as good a
