Ooh sounds interesting. I’ll have to see if I can get my hands on some. Thanks for the reply!
Do you have any good recipes for using mint? It’s not common where I’m currently living, but had it in the garden when I was growing up. All I can think of is lamb.
a giant "fuck off" sign to international tourists.
That’s what I’m wondering about. Will data only tourist sim/esim work as usual, or will “incompatible” 4G devices be blocked in this situation, too?
One would think that tourist sims would work because they are data only, but who knows?!

Arctic beta has expired
(lemmy.world)
Thanks for. All the hard work which you’re putting into the app. It is my favorite!
I was greeted with a beta expired message today.
Should I just start using the AppStore version? Will I lose any settings if I install it over the beta?
Thanks in advance
It’s not about losing face. It is the fact that seishain, or permanent employees are very hard to fire. The company needs to keep a record of the employee’s failures.
In addition, the company needs to implement and execute improvement plans. The results of those need to be reviewed. The next plan has to be implemented. And so on.
Only when they fail to show improvement a certain number of times (I don’t know exactly) can they be legally fired. You can’t just fire someone like in the U.S. style of at will employment. That would be a lawsuit waiting to happen.
So it is easier and cheaper to “persuade” the employee to resign.
However, this terrible behavior is considered to be power harassment, and all large companies now have ethics hotlines. Also, companies have to provide annual trainings on issues like this. So, I hope this practice is decreasing.

[bug] swiping back doesn’t honor text size
(lemmy.world)
First, thank you for building this wonderful app.
This is my favorite feature of the app: the ability to return to the previous post by swiping from right to left.
With the latest TestFlight version, I noticed a new bug: the text size on the returning post is set to the system size, and once complete open, switches to the user’s choice of text size. The result is a little jarring.
To replicate, set the text time to something other than the system size. View a post, go back. And then swipe across to return to the post. You should be able to see the effect.
All airplanes are still using leaded fuels
Jet fuel doesn’t contain lead. Only the avgas used by smaller planes with piston engines.
Still, it’s unbelievable that this fuel is still being used in 2024!
tatemae is the romanisation. It is your public attitude, which may be different to your real attitude (hon’ne).
I’m a permanent resident of Japan and am raising a family here. I think you would get better responses if you posed more specific questions, or provided examples of what kind of misunderstandings people have experienced and posted about online.
I find Japan a pleasant place to live, but it is far from perfect, just like any society. The cost of living is quite reasonable compared to many other countries, which makes the lower salaries go further.
People are generally friendly, but you sometimes have to read between the lines, as people tend to be less direct so as to avoid confrontation (“It is a little difficult” is a polite way to say “No!” for example).
Anyway, if you have any other questions I’ll be around.
Wow, what a scam!
It is surprising to realise that this is not more common. In Japan, basically every home and apartment comes with rooftop antennas and coaxial connections in multiple rooms. No need to pay for cable TV (BS and CS) unless you want to get more channels.
Rental companies should try putting some stickers inside the vehicle which indicate where the manual door release is. It wouldn’t cost much and would at least save people unfamiliar with Teslas from getting trapped like this.

[bug] Fonts are odd sizes, missing sort by new
(i.imgur.com)
Thanks for the awesome update just now. I’m sorry, I haven’t gotten around to figuring out how to use GitHub. I hope this will get seen.
When not using the system font size, some parts are rendered in an odd size compared to before.
Also, I can’t find the sort by new option anymore.
Also, long post titles are making the compact view less compact (maybe due to the font issue).
On an unrelated note, my .world account still cannot enable notifications but my other ones can. It just hangs on the spinning progress wheel. I am not sure how to go about fixing it anymore.
I really appreciate all you have done. Also, there was no reason to apologise for taking a hiatus. This should be a project of passion not a job.
I hope I have not come across as demanding. I am loving what you guys are doing.
I’ll try to learn GitHub so I can post bugs in your preferred manner.
Thank again!
