This game is fantastic, it seems that Japanese train arcade / sims are having a renaissance at the moment. It works brilliantly with the Zuiki Mascon controller.

Sapporo's one stretches for a good mile in a straight line. Quite convenient when going from the entertainment district to the train station with a suitcase in heavy snow.

Exit 8 game is great, there is also a game called Platform 8 which is a similar thing, but in a train. There is also an Exit 8 movie releasing in a few days.

I believe this figure is for a 1R, which is a studio, averaged across all 23 wards. I got my data from: https://resources.realestate.co.jp/rent/what-is-the-average-...

I think the average rent is about $600 in a 'central' location. Any other big city in the world would be at least 3x the price, insane.

Through running in Tokyo is next level. You can catch a train from the airport, which then turns into a subway, then later on it becomes a train again.

My bad. My brain somehow joined the parent conversation above and thought you said Sydney to Canberra!

Can always hang out at Big Echo if they're open until the early hours. Most I know are usually open until 5am!

No ubers in Japan. Well that's a lie. There is uber, but it only calls regular taxis. Taxis are very expensive in Japan.

They do a lot of nighttime maintenance work. It's very difficult to shut down train lines in the daytime considering the massive ridership

Lots of public bathrooms don't have hand dryers for some reason. So I assume they don't want wet hands? Although even in toilets with hand dryers, I've seen many Japanese not dry their hands after washing!

I interviewed for a UK company that said 5 days in-office was a hard requirement. I politely declined and the interview ended shortly thereafter! Seems like a massive time waste for no benefit. I go to the office 1-2x a week and that's

Knew I wouldn't have to scroll far to find the link to this video. I'm genuinely worried for the future if we keep going down this path. And all the hard work by urbanists will be undone. NJB radicalised me, in the best way possib

You don't need to use AppStore, unless of course you want to use apple software. Pretty much all the software I use is from brew.
