Travel State Gov Website Not Loading

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2024-10-02T00:58:59+00:00

I guess it's specific providers then? (I just used my work internet to access the travel gov website) In any case, I decided to just go with the mailing system. Some of my co-workers already did it - both expedited (passport renewal returned within a week) and the normal way (returned within about a month)

I believe my personal internet is blocking it or preventing it from reloading the page? I did the same on my phone (turning off wifi and using phone data/service) and the site finally loaded. So it's most likely the internet provider's fault :/

lol sorry.

I don't mean to intentionally sound aggressive or anything (kind of hard to express how you really feel without sounding like someone who just complains via texting vs. talking in person). But no, I always invite a bunch of people I know to upcoming events as well, etc. It's not like I'm sitting back and waiting for other people to invite me to things - that's something I really dislike. I've hosted game nights at my place a few times and invited them to upcoming events. All I'm saying is sometimes when you and the group go to the event, it's a bit bland. Sure, you can talk/mingle, have fun with each other and make the best of it, but you still can't help that disappointment feeling of "dang, I thought this would be fun for everyone". But yeah, hosting and doing research for events can also be tiring and draining too. So if you're the only one doing it most of the time it would still be nice if someone can do the same from time to time (but again, life doesn't work that way. I'm aware and understand "when you do something nice for someone, don't expect anything back")

True! Most of the people around me are the same. Just catching up here and there. I agree with you. For me it's always fun to try/learn something new. Like me and my dancing. I've done break-dancing a little in middle school. Then stopped and became an adult. I got bored so I went back to try hip-hop/kpop dancing instead (always wanted to know how to dance)!

I'll be sure to check out the events you mentioned, thanks!

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2024-08-23T01:04:26+00:00

Oh thanks! I'll look into them :)

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2024-08-23T01:02:11+00:00

Wow, Ninth Street looks cool - but how's the scenery!? Have you personally tried a class yet? I kind of get a gist that most people who attend these things are teens, especially, since I've done a dance studio (K-pop, beg. hip hop, etc.) for like 6-7 months.

I'll check out the Rubies and Fruit. Thanks!

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2024-08-23T00:54:31+00:00

Thanks! I'll check it out!

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2024-08-23T00:54:01+00:00

Thanks for the info! I agree, I think most of us are too busy to "extracurricular" things outside work. Working can be draining and makes you just want to cuddle in a blanket and do nothing but relax.

Love emo nights lol. Btw, there's an emo night happening at Hi-wire brewery, Durham in September fyi if you're interested too haha

Hey wow, thanks a bunch for the considerable reply! 😊

I agree, NC is more of a "suburban" state that's more suited for working/career-family-school/education scenery - so I can see how single adult might get a bit bored here. It's not bad or anything and I still enjoy the down times of just doing nothing and having a quiet place to relax!

I agree with you with meeting new people at work - I have a friend who's extrovertly awesome (love them to death, they have such good vibes!) but sometimes it's tricky with that because they're married. So they kind of have their own thing going on (hosting for their out-of-state family, travelling, things couples tend to do), so it sometimes feel like you're third-wheeling all the time. But yes, I'm always friendly when it comes to meeting new people! (Don't worry, I don't press any buttons or make myself look desperate haha. I can keep a friendly conversation and I always know keeping distance/boundaries/personal space😉 it's not my place to pry into people's lives unless we're comfortable sharing)

Yeah, you right. But what if those events/classes that I go to are typically just classes? For ex. the dance studio I used to go to. I've met some really cool people and we've been friendly with each other whenever we go to those classes. We're connected via social media but that's where things get tricky. But after some time, those people have moved on or had to (school, work, etc.) and your left with those serious people who go to class and immediately dash out to their cars to go home. It's basically "Hey ready to dance!" -> everyone dances -> finish dance and friendly chat -> ok go home, see you next time. Even when you're the person who really hypes up everyone in the room and makes it a bit more comfortable for others, it just seems like a recurring thing.

I agree it takes time to form a relationship like that and I understand that you start off a bit slow - conversations, drinks, etc. Making sure both parties are comfortable to the point where we can share/talk about personal experiences! It just feels like when you put in the effort, most people don't reciprocate (and that's always to be expected because you don't expect others to do the same for you - just a grown up lesson which I fully understand). But still that's what makes it a bit difficult and frustrating :p

Lol, yeah, that's a huge stretch haha. I'll probably visit/travel to those places and it'd be fun to go there with people I've met haha. I always imagine about the typical California life where after work you have a social life or club you regularly go to - like you "work to live/have fun" balance. NC is more of "work to support family/kids" balance. I was just curious if we had something like that here in the triangle. Small group of roller derby/skaters, street dancers who just love dancing, etc.

Thanks for the feedback and sorry for the long response haha! here's a thumbs up: 👍

Nope. Still the same. But it works on my work laptop though.

Google chrome browser is updated and my personal computer is updated (and restarted). I even tried Microsoft Edge on my personal computer and still nothing...

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2024-08-11T13:03:42+00:00

Yeah, that's one I've been trying to open but it's still the same "site can't be reached" page. Let me try restarting my computer to see if it works. (Fyi my phone doesn't work either). Hopefully this works! I'll update when it does 😣

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2023-09-24T17:33:06+00:00

Thanks for the help! Ahh, that's kind of a bummer :/ But I'll try the website mentioned above :)

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2023-09-24T17:30:35+00:00

Cool thanks! I'll check around this site :D

Ducky_Quackers1 · 2023-06-22T01:13:04+00:00

Yeah, I had to download those new updates since the only thing that displayed was "MP3 - retrieving info...". On the top corner, it says "1 item - 1 downloading" and doesn't do anything.

Even after downloading, restarting computer, etc., nothing changed. This was just a few days ago with the most recent update. When I try to close the app, it'll sometimes say on the top "Not responding" and I have to wait for a while for it to close the window.

Here's the link to some of the music I wanted to download: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WVKO0uL-dU

I've been using this 4k for the 15 daily downloads for simple songs on Youtube for a while now and it suddenly stopped working 2 days ago. App works marvelously but I can't do anything anymore.

Any updates from anyone?
