@reckless.bsky.social @davidpierce.xyz one more menu item disaster for you:

@reckless.bsky.social Break the YouTube hegemony and add video podcast support for even more flavour.

Worth opening on desktop and scrolling around:

Recently an elderly relative asked if I'd 'got the pedophile.'
Somewhat alarmed, I asked them to clarify.
They meant the PDF.
The F apparently means 'file'

Very impressive

We had something like it in NZ: grease proof paper better designed for cooking in tiny 10cm squares.

Could have got away with it if the lobsters were from NZ which at least look the same.

Pretty good view of the house that refused to sell so they just built Narita Airport around it.

Exactly. Only ever saw meatball etc. purchases at Harajuku. Always thought how that could pay the rent.

Very nice!

For this article alone it’s worth subscribing.

Apart from the US, is there any other country where immigration officials do Call of Duty cosplay?

I will learn to play a new musical instrument this year. Expectations are low.

Also got it on Apple Books. I’ll probably end up getting the print version too and regretting nothing.

What is this, an aircraft carrier for ants?

Compare Countries With This Simple Tool Drag and drop countries around the map to compare their relative size. Is Greenland really as big as all of Africa? You may be surprised at what you find! A great tool for educators.

I do get to enjoy some pretty awesome sunrises though…usually around 4am.

My previous place in Shibuya faced west, so I often got front-row seats to Tokyo’s spectacular summer sunsets. Now we face east, great views over Tokyo, but sunsets only reach me as reflections in the towers Shibuya has pooped out over the years.

Luckily the US is only a tiny slice of our overseas orders, but this must be brutal for many.

Japan Post (along with many other countries) has halted most shipping to the US so it's come to this.

Thanks for reporting this. It looks like RNZ was having some server issues earlier (also caused article images to not load) but resolved now. All links should work as expected.

Adding a tariff message to our ecommerce site because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No probs. @rnzrss.bsky.social can only post what RNZ puts in their feeds.

The Japanese government's latest Mynaportal app update allows you to add your My Number card to your iPhone's Apple Wallet. Servers were a little busy but it works as advertised.
