this question probably belongs in Tech Support, have you seen the Mac threads there?

yorokobi- I'm sure you started this thread and offer with the best intentions but the practicalities involved will probably make it too much effort on your part. Others have pointed out the customs/shipping issues. Let me add that YES--U.S. Customs does look at packages. We just received another ope...

this shouldn't be in this topic, but starting a new topic for it doesn't feel right either >_<; i've watched this movie about 3-5 years ago (i was only about 8-10, details might be incorrect o_o) synopsis it's about this girl who's high class, rich, a nice job and owns an apartment and has a boyfri...

I don't think the first post means "showing" in Hawaii. got this from a post on jdorama: "Attention Please SP ~ Yoko, Hawaii ni Tobu Date: 13 January, 9.00 pm Station: TV Asahi Cast: Ueto Aya, Nishikido Ryo, Maya Miki, Koizumi Kotaro, Aibu Saki Synopsis: This drama special shows Yoko ...

there was a thread like this before and i've (and others) given out this web site

http://loca.ash.jp/

it gives exact locations from current dramas, depending on your Japanese and googling skills you could probably take it from there and actually map it out.

From an economic standpoint, I think any reasonable cost-benefit analysis would not be in favor of the rail system. I am personally all for it. The roads are way too congested here. When I was in the Bay Area, the BART was so convenient. The problem with the one they're proposing here is that there...

i was telling them how my VILLAGE was kinda damaged, cuz when the palm trees sway, the cocounts fall and hit the straw roof and grass huts. what you mean "joking" 'at's how really was! nah, i agree it sucked without power--on one hand i don't think we're very well prepared for a major eme...

I vote to keep them. Can't see how a seperate site make them more visible or increase the longevity of the torrents. It's not hard at all to find them along with the dramas. Rather think the chances for variety shows to get the casual downloader (like myself) increase if they're here. And think it w...

one time I was attending a workshop and the inn where we were put up made us decide beforehand if we would have Japanese or Western breakfast each morning--no ordering by the day. the first couple of days I had to break the raw egg into my misoshiru (miso soup) to sort of cook it. by the ending of t...

caught this at our film festival and enjoyed it. as reviewed, the special effects are very well done but serve to re-create the era and re-building mood of the times. glorious cinematography. just one scene that was over the top and showed it's manga origins. Koyuki, who i don't really care for actu...

howzit, howzit. Hawai'i so small but this thread is good for people like you and jholic away from the islands. anyway, if you having issues with getting dramas here read the FAQ's http://www.d-addicts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=15864 and give a holla here if still get questions. :thumright: (we need...

hmm..no one answered you yet? well if you say you're a complete beginner, I'm going to tell you i'm not very tech-savvy myself (but many of my captures are up here on d-addicts). first, the amount of ram you have seems woefully inadequate. a minimum of 512 would run XP better even if you did nothing...

I'm probably going to need a job when I'm on the island, what is a good place for a freshman to work at? well, because of our tourist-based economy, there's currently lots of work in the service area. in fact it made the papers recently that some businesses are reducing hours and services because o...

Speaking of jdramas, did anyone else find Densha Otoko extremely overrated? I guess this is kinda off topic, but maybe I won't be bludgeoned to death with my own laptop in this thread since I stay one local :whistling: If not for Shiraishi Miho and Toyohara Kosuke, I don't think I could've finished...

Hilo--must have been a law one time that if you opened an eating place you gotta name 'em after somebody. Don's, Blaine's, Dottie's, Freddie's--c'mon i know get some more.

what, were you planning on taking her home this weekend to meet your very strict parents? what does it matter either way?

K, if you and others would be more descriptive in your post subject like adding "on a Mac" you would find more information and not have to ask what has been asked may times. http://www.d-addicts.com/forum/viewtopic_36025.htm the simplest is to try vlc: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ it doesn...

just seems like the filmmaker trying to drum up boxoffice numbers. another way of looking at it is maybe he may have not so much issues with Japan as he does Korea. the "Korean wave" has definitely invaded Japan and maybe he's upset at all that hallyu action (maybe some sour grapes too) an...

I wouldn't be surprised if even a R1 version gets produced considering that Mishima is fairly well known in the west, it has played (with subs) in festivals (like here in Hawai'i) and somewhat because of the popularity of the lead actors, number of Japan awards (can just see that plastered on the co...

I've sent numerous emails to Apple asking them to negotiate distribution rights for music on iTunes Japan in the US. i've never gotten back more than a form letter, but i keep asking and hoping.

Besides occasional showing of shows on asian channels in specific markets, where exactly has either k-drama or j-drama spread? courtesy of koreanwiz: http://www.koreanwiz.org/special-stations.html it's North America-centric but I think if you combine it with the YesAsia breakoff YA Ent. box set rel...

I think that people that did not experience the injustice (for example the Chinese that did not suffer in the WWII from the Japanese) should discriminate. @SouSu--I think your heart and mind are in the right place but maybe you meant "shouldN'T" @aNToK--I think the quote "Those who c...

The only difference is that the US carrying out this oppression out at the psycho-sociological level whereas China is executing it in a more physical fashion. no argument fro...

It is in Zhang Yimou's best interest to describe China as tolerant and progressive. yes, you're absolutely right, Zhang (through his translator) treaded carefully around the question about what was going on in China during that period and what's happening now. he is working there afterall. i meant ...
