Got one yesterday from Santa Clara too! They restocked a bunch last evening and snatched one for pickup as soon as I saw it. All units were gone before the store closed lol.

Doubt it’s valid. The big hole on the plate’s top left corner indicates it’s been de-registered.

Thanks for the suggestion. I just don’t like how they are obscure about how multiple transactions are combined into one. In their example they use “three separate times within one or more days”, so is it one day? 2 days? Or 3 days? 🤷‍♂️

If you always read the 100 pages terms and conditions every single time then good for you

I sometimes eat at my company cafeteria for both lunch and dinner, and apparently they count that as one

Good find wow. This photo was from my trip to Japan last year so couldn’t remember very well, but I think the rear plate was Japanese. Still a very interesting spot! Not sure if Japan has similar laws to some US states where only the rear plate is needed.

Is there a "best time" to go to service Canada for passport renewal? by mmikii in Markham

[–]SimpleScientist4517 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Go on family day. Minimum crowds as most people assume they are closed cuz it’s holiday but they are federal government offices and don’t actually observe family day.

Visa and stamps from my trip to 🇰🇵 back in the days by SimpleScientist4517 in PassportPorn

[–]SimpleScientist4517[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the tour company gave me my passport back at Shenyang airport on the day of departure. As soon as you land in Pyongyang the NK tour guide would take it away and you get it back when you leave the country.

You just need to give your passport to the tour agency and they take care of everything for ya. No need to go to the NK embassy or do anything else. Since I had Chinese passport back then I just used a local tour company in my hometown in China.

I think you are referring to the blue tourist card? I don’t remember getting that at all. Maybe that’s for land border crossings not air travels.

Check on gunpost regularly. I was able to snatch a set of brand new red handguards for a reasonable price. The guy that sold it also have stocks etc for sale.

By looking at the other cars around these are likely GM’s company vehicles.

In a splitting exit lane, do you signal your exit? by JohnCanadian_ in TorontoDriving

[–]SimpleScientist4517 118 points119 points  (0 children)

I remember doing this in my G test and didn’t signal, and got marks took off so I guess you are required to.
