Premium Android phones are just as expensive as iPhones and come with worse software quality and shorter support periods.

Yeah, the mythical Samsung phone that still gets six years of manufacturer OS updates

Generally, the hardware in a small, power-efficient, SoC embedded device is going to be a lot more particular and a lot less general than your gaming computer’s motherboard. It’s harder to write general OS software for specific integrated systems rather than a big set of chips which provide an individual chip for the BIOS, specialized chips for the PCI ports, etc., all of which have become more standardized over time.

Fallout 4 came out in 2015. They had plenty of time to start work on a new engine since then.

Try these instructions for iOS. You may have trouble during the nightly maintenance period, or with a foreign Visa card. My Amex worked. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207155

It sounds like you are doing the route:

  • Narita Airport to Shinagawa Station via Narita Express
  • Shinagawa Station to Kyoto Station via Hikari Shinkansen

If this is the case, then I think you can pick up the ticket from Shinagawa Station. From my understanding, you take the info in your purchase receipt to the Shinkansen ticket machine to get a ticket for the gates. Or you could go to the JR office and have them do it for you. I would email the station to double check.

I think that if you purchase through the SmartEX app and link to a digital Suica in your iPhone wallet, you can use your iPhone to tap on and off through the Shinkansen gates, and you won't have to get a physical ticket.

Society revokes rights from people who show that they cannot be trusted with them.

People who harass other people to suicide don’t deserve to communicate freely. They have shown they are not responsible with that right.

I think that was also a bad thing to do.

I think you’re assuming a lot about what I’m doing here. In this case, I wanted to rename the community to move an emoji and make it more consistent with the other similar communities on our server.

I’m the owner and admin of the instance, and sometimes there are tidying/housekeeping tasks I need to do with user-created communities.

 

I'm always happy to see people showing off other destinations in Kyoto's beautiful Arashiyama region aside from the bamboo forest and monkey park. My personal recommendations are Jojakko-ji Temple and Aightowa Cafe, a short walk down the forested road.

 

When I'm going on shorter trips and I don't need my clothes to be as organized, I use this bundle packing method instead of my packing cubes to save a bit of space!

 

I wanted to share this because I recently tried "barefoot"–style shoes and found them extremely comfortable on my feet for long days of walking. These days, my Lems Primal 2 always come with me on a long trip.

 

This is a great guide to one of my favorite spots for meeting people and having a great time, Golden Gai in Shinjuku!
