I haven’t found any super good solution but I did update my vite.config.ts to use a strict port instead of automatically picking the next available port. Then it will at least ensure a max of one dev server at a time and other attempts fail immediately

Good luck!

I was also surprised that so many comments online from Japanese and foreigners alike seem to lack sympathy, just saying “suck it up” or “learn Japanese” or explaining it away as necessary to prevent scalping. I’m sure Nintendo could have come up with another strategy if they wanted to.

I understand they gotta do something and I hate those endless lotteries. If they solve that I’m happy for them. But I would like to play TotK remastered, in English, but not enough to pay 70,000 yen…I think I’ll just enjoy my Xbox S and PS5 for a while.

Do you think you’ll buy the locked or unlocked version?

I also think ChatGPT is totally accurate for this text: chatgpt.com/share/67a651...
I’m not Japanese but I do live in Japan.

You can get 90% of the way there with the Intl.Segmenter:

```
const segmenter = new Intl.Segmenter("ja", { granularity: "word" });

const segments = [...segmenter.segment(text)].map(seg => seg.segment);

console.log(segments);
```

But It may over eagerly split words that aren’t in its dictionary.

Totally get it. For most of my life I’ve also felt that no semicolons is very weird. I’m sure Cursor can follow semicolons acceptably but my theory is:

1. It’s fewer tokens?
2. Cursor/etc may get confused by some types of “semicolon babysitting” www.epicweb.dev/your-code-st...
Your code style does matter actually
You may be babysitting JavaScript syntax. It's annoying and you don't have to. Fix your formatter!

The worst is when Apple updates their terms, they block all new submissions and device registrations until the Account Owner logs in with their own account and accepts the new terms. 😥 My team’s account owner isn’t involved with this on the daily so I always have to nag him
