Facebook has no control of hardware platforms vs. Google/Apple. Now that Android and ios have stricter tracking protection against 3rd parties, fb can’t track and sell ads as they used to. By buying into the metaverse you help keep the Facebook business survive.
FUKUOKA -- Police in Fukuoka Prefecture on Sept. 24 issued a prefecture-wide email warning regarding a group of suspicious men wearing a skimpy item of lingerie or nothing at all seen in the city of Koga the previous day.
Works for basic ingredients, but for even basic “preprocessed” items (mixed nuts, pizza, sauces…) they can just change the recipe, put more of the cheap and less of the good stuff. The cheapest product per weight often has a worse quality. Sunflower oil instead of more healthy alternatives etc…
We don’t know, because theberserkingblacksmith didn’t tell us if they were ok with this. You could also put the corpse in a water tank next to the pool with a shared water flow, but that’s a different experiment. Or else sprinkle the corpse into the pool in tiny bits (i.e. micro corpses) invisible to the eye.
I was thinking about going for the trail or at least a part of it by bike at some point, but I wondered if anyone here has done something similar before? I’m not religious and would rather do it for the experience and to get to know Shikoku better. I’m not sure whether this would be considered offensive to practicing...
Thanks, that’s a lot of useful info! Yes, weather is my main concern, heat but also typhoons. I played with the idea of hiking this trail for a while, but I rarely get 2 months off for such things. My experience from other trips into nature (car, hiking/public transport) so far was that roads are usually in quite a good condition (I once went all the way up Aso-san by car with a friend, which felt kind of weird from a European perspective, but also convenient I guess?). So, from that perspective an urban bike might do it. Traffic is also a good point, though.
Thanks, maybe it would be best to try it on a shorter weekend trip or so to get a feeling for how it works on actually steep roads outside Tokyo. I’m still not a big fan of electric bikes somehow (and don’t own one either), although this may really be one of the cases where they make total sense :D
