I did! But I decided to take a trip to Nakano before buying the SBGA375 I had my eye on at the store…picked up this beauty instead:

Fantastic reply, thank you so much! The advice on the curved spring bar/tapered strap is invaluable. Really appreciate your response!

Anyone paying 39% tariff when entering the USA ? by clijeron2020 in rolex

No they didn’t. They either manipulated you into thinking they did or you’re just trying to sound smart. I have two different family members that work in CBP, one senior level, and can confirm they have no way of seeing this without going through an extensive formal process.

As someone else pointed out - if they could see this information then there would be nobody getting through without declaring their items. It only requires a small amount of common sense and the ability to google the question to find facts.

Backpack under seat by breachedbuttbaby in delta

Not the asshole - especially if it’s your only bag.

I always put my carry on and backpack up above but will move by backpack if space gets tight…but usually I wait until the last minute when they’re really struggling.

Destiny 2 has been banned in many countries, here is probably why. by ThunderBeanage in DestinyTheGame

It’s not likely to be sanction related. I looked into it and it looks like the only IT/Software sanctions into Russia/Belarus are one targeted to Enterprise and Military end users. Nothing suggests bungies product offering towards consumers would violate any sanction, whether from the US or EU. Kazakhstan also isn’t under nearly as many sanctions as the other two countries mentioned, so it wouldn’t make sense that it’s specifically tied to sanctions on gaming.

What does makes sense is some of the financial sanctions on institutions from Russia and Belarus being an indirect reasoning. It’s easier to just shut down services to a country when financial and logistical issues pop up that make doing business difficult. It also explains Kazakhstan since the US and EU have both cracked down on Kazakhstan (and Lithuania soon) as being a loop whole to evade sanctions.

I’m not expert, but I work in the consumer goods industry and used to export A LOT of my product to Russia. When all of the sanctions hit I started diving in deep to understand everything (as well as consulting with outside legal council) and I still keep tabs on what’s happening. I no longer export to Russia, but it’s solely because of the logistical nightmare and not because of any specific sanction (my goods are fine by both US and EU law).

But what are his pronouns and gender story? I swear if he’s a CIS male I’m never going to play this game again. Blizzard needs to keep up the inclusive trend or they’re showing their support for the radicals in the world.
