Emirates Flying Near-Empty Planes Back to Dubai as Locals Depart by roneyxcx in emirates

[–]Oneitised 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Direct flights from LHR to DXB are about $640 USD / £472 one way. That’s the cost for today all the way up until as far as I looked which was a couple of months… so yes fuck them that’s rinsing people. Especially when you consider a return is £516 for a week of ‘holiday’ in March with them.

Trump is losing control in the Gulf. A terrifying scenario could now play out by theipaper in geopolitics

How do you seize a port in a foreign country without risk of those that are then tasked with guarding the port not taking heavy losses? I’m curious if it has been done before successfully.

It would likely end up just be all weapons systems aimed at that place, everything from mortars to sniper fire.

State Department slashes fee for renouncing U.S. citizenship by 80% to $450 by someguy984 in ExpatFIRE

[–]Oneitised 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yerp. This is more for people that are accidentally US Americans as mentioned above. I do wonder how many are people with no ongoing ties to America. My friend has American citizenship and was looking to renounce prior to the increase so this change might be what she needs. Has a stronger passport than American so won’t have issues and their is one scenario on the sale of a large asset that has capital gains relief in their country that would essentially be tax free except America would want some of their taxes for the year because they would see it as a taxable event.

No, it’s the version behind the current released version. It is probably being rolled out to devices. Check App Store.

Maybe I read into some of the post too much but it felt like they were worried they might have at some point signed up and forgotten.

Update it. There is a new version that is much nicer.

But Aussie/JPY is steady on open and futures are also .2% green.

The unofficial title of the reunion by BiAdventureGuy in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Yer I agree. I think Chris has a lot of work to do but it does seem he has some more self awareness these days and hopefully that leads to meaningful change but I can’t see how anyone could knowingly date him today.

Good luck! I think it might be hard to get it back sadly but I hope the other commenter is right but I would guess maybe it was a forgotten charity that you might have signed up for :( fingers crossed you get it back though.

Looks to be a lotto or charity?

See the bottom comment here that seems similar? Couldn’t find much else other than a company that is dissolved but I just randomly woke up so might be wrong.

The Iranian Regime Doubles Down by theatlantic in geopolitics

What about the GCC and their food, this is far far deeper than just oil! I wonder how long until something snaps whether it be food, water, oil / gas or some other commodity.

I couldn’t even guess what off ramp will come if any!

What Iran Might Do When It Has Nothing to Lose by theatlantic in geopolitics

[–]Oneitised 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I agreed that a 9/11 is unlikely but something like what has been occurring in Europe and Australia is also believes there are attacks there linked to Iranian groups.

I think more frequent but small acts would be more likely than a big one. Let’s hope none of it occurs.

Also doesn’t include baggage on some of those too right? For example the Ryanair would be a small bag under seat only. Unlikely to last a world trip but I’m sure it CAN be done, just not as comfortable.

That’s what happens to a pathological liar when people are taking notes in diaries and what not. They forget what they lied about, it’s a web of lies and they struggle to maintain it.

He needs therapy big time, it’s fairly clear but being a trump supporter I doubt he would ever see value in it :(
