Earlier this month, the Japanese government approved a bill to introduce the Japan Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (JESTA), which will apply to visitors from 74 countries.

The new system is aiming to tighten up immigration rules, and will require tourists to provide the following details:

• their passport information
• the reason they’re visiting
• details of their accommodation

Not exactly the end of the world.

Making a note of this for some upcoming presentations. Thank you!

Seems pretty neat!

The article structure seems… pretty slop-like. Though thank you.

I feel like this does work better with “couldn’t pour water out of a boot if the instructions were on the heel” simply because it’s quite hard to tip a boat (and you can read the side of something without tipping it over)…

This mischaracterisation really struck me during the coverage and commentary of the recent “AI blogged about my rejection” as if that weren’t something prompted by a human for.

I’ve seen people mention headlines that memory producers are intentionally not increasing production in order to not have a post-bubble glut - but also found at least one headline suggesting that they were in fact planning new factories, so… Who knows.

Do you find there to be a split second of delay when you switch to it before it’ll respond to pressing things? Unsure if I’m going mad, or holding it wrong, or something.

If anyone has a link to a high bitrate (or high quality) version of the show (better than YouTube, which doesn’t seem to be dealing with the fast movement as well as I’d like), please let me know!

Looking at the community, it’s awash with 0 comment, 1 score, no engagement posts. I’ve got to wonder if it’s worth leaving online.

I only found your comments here because I came to block the community, and wondered what the one commented post was saying 😅

I’ll just blanket say anything by Zachtronics and Inkle would be excellent. I think Zachtronics even used to have a way for schools to license their games out for free?

Happily, one of the answers I just saw suggests that the SSD and RAM are easily user upgradable.

Ooh, I’d assumed the RAM would be soldered/integrated with the SOC, but looking at the FAQ you’re completely right! That would be a neat option…

When did they do this before, to make it a classic Valve move?

I don’t remember any of their other products being affected by global supply chain issues before.

Is he not implying that Adobe are shooting themselves in the foot (dropping their share price) by stopping development of an animation tool that lots of people use?

I will say, the TF2 crossover items back in the day were pretty neat!

Maybe I’m reading too far into this, but I suspect the EU isn’t particularly worried about marginalising cash payments from Americans?

Oh no.

To be fair, I guess my reaction wasn’t going to be positive if they contracted it out like track and trace, either.
