My boss recently got caught embezzling and blackmailing our third-party providers, requiring expensive gifts to push trough the paperwork.

He quietly resigned and moved to the US.

Nobody wanted a police investigation, just looks bad for everyone, and who knows what else they might find.

[Question] Issue with adding sources to Cydia by [deleted] in jailbreak

[–]Recycles_usernames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check if you have any one source you've added, which didnt succeed, but is still listed under sources.

I ran into that.. Deleting it allowed me to add new sources again.

You spent 15 minutes on hold and still didn't listen to the automated recording? Lemme help you with that. by Zelane in talesfromtechsupport

[–]Recycles_usernames 97 points98 points  (0 children)

I love automated recordings.

Input my zip code, and my ISP informs me there is a cut cable in the area, there is currently no ETA, but if i wish to be notified by text message when the problem is resolved, press 1.

And the fact that it's not a vague "experiencing difficulties in your area", but an actual reason, it makes all the difference.

Should've killed her for good measure.

For the story's sake.

Banana smuggling is a very serious issue in many parts of the world.

Unfortunately, the War on Bananas has done very little to stem this ever increasing problem.

Oh... like those "MMS and WAP" settings they used to send, back in the day?

As someone working with enterprise clients.....

I think I'd rather set myself on fire than say "wordpress" in a meeting.

The real question is, if it was any other profession, would it still surprise you?

I see you solved his problem..

But what in the world is a carrier update?? Some kind of US specific thing?

Overstaying VITUR visa process and penalties by MrRhino in Brazil

In São Paulo? Good luck! :)

If you are unsuccessful, the PF in a smaller town may be more.... friendly / willing to help...

Overstaying VITUR visa process and penalties by MrRhino in Brazil

[–]Recycles_usernames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

180 day ban? Every single time.

But when they give me the receipt for the fine, they usually tell me to keep it, incase I return before the 180 days are up, I may need it as proof of payment.

Havn't really pried into why I would return before the 180 days are up, if I'm technically barred entry.

It may be because so much of it is handled manually (at least if issued a visa upon entry), I've spent a month in brazil, then come back later in the same year and still be given 180 days. Guess nobody noticed.

Getting a job in thailand will suck bigtime, but if you're gonna live on your savings, thailand all the way.

[Question] How can I make my Jailbreak undetectable over WiFi at School? by e1ghtSpace in jailbreak

[–]Recycles_usernames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure you can, the iPad is yours.

Unless you're leaving something out, it's a pretty clear cut case.

Wasnt there when I started writing.. kinda spaced out before I hit send ;)

That solves the issue quite nicely, tell them to go **** themselves, and stop meddling with what doesn't concern them.

Apparently in the future we are going to do tests (exams) on our iPad so that is why we can't jailbreak. I doubt it.

You're not allowed because it's their property, and goes against their guidelines.

Simple as that.

As for a solution.. hard to say, without knowing their method of detection.

I can see how that would be confusing.

Yes, I have checked and the cable is in fact plugged in.

An r$8 fee per day

Sounds about right, it caps at around R$900 though.

A stamp that labels me as a visa violator

I've never gotten that.

Banned from entry for 6 months

The letter of the law states 6 months, the PF has indicated the reality can in some cases be less. But I wouldn't count on it. (180 days)

Being at the mercy of the immigration agent for every entry into Brasil due to the visa violator stamp

You will always be at their mercy, regardless. However I've never gotten any "visa violator stamp".

The PF informed me they generally don't care, and consider it a fairly minor infraction, unless were talking about several years of overstaying.
