  • That would be great to be honest. I have many shopping lists in reminders named as the stores which I frequent, with one catch all called “shopping” they are in a group called “shopping” because of course they are. Until recently adding reminders worked like “Siri add xyz to my shopping list”. But now Siri pops up saying “do you mean shopping, or shopping?” And clicking either option results in an error that the app needs to be opened. How fucking stupid can it be? One isn’t even a list! Works fine from my Apple Watch though. Changed the category to “to buy” because fuck me, right?







  • Dental is covered here in Japan. Just pay 30%. Only cost about ¥20,000 to have a root canal and crown done (over a series of appointments). A wisdom tooth extraction at a major hospital cost about ¥7,000.

    The one downside is that insurance only covers 30 mins of time with the dentist per appointment, so dental assistants do most of the prep etc, as the dentist hovers between several patients.

    As a result, the work is spread over several appointments, whereas in my home country it would be done in just one or two. But that also spreads the cost over more time, so win win as far as I’m concerned.

    I wonder what dental is like in other countries with socialised healthcare? I’d love to get some more details from you if you have experience.

    Same issues here. In addition, I followed a link to a new community but I could not subscribe because the interface thought I was still in the home feed. Thanks always for the awesome effort and time you put into this.

    Edit: could subscribe from inside a post in the community I was interested in.


  • I still use a 16 gb one for my DSLR. When I bought it about 7 years ago, I opted to get an older entry level canon which was basically better specced than the current (at the time) entry level model and far cheaper. The new model did have wifi though so I got one of these. Works pretty well. And other apps support them not only their included one (PhotoSync on iOS comes to mind). They are slow AF but get the job done.
